PrincessKenny Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Ok so... Dutchy just enlightened me that i know shit about root network. In fact i have never seen anyone who would build anything to root network except root nexus and sylvan gate. Always just towers. Since requirement is "out of combat units" in my opinion description is crap also there is no indicator of how many supporters are connected. I would suggest: 1. Change descriptions of "Linked fire" to more intuitive to for example (razorleaf): Quote Unit can connect to friendly root network within 25m radius, enabling more powerful attacks. When in combat, the unit can benefit from up to 6 supporters itself, it will then be able to continuously release more and more razor-sharp leaves at once with each volley. Counts as 1 supporter. Supporters must be out of combat. 2. Add amount of supporters indicator on unit picture. Number on "linked fire" icon would be best in my opinion.

WindHunter Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 1. We changed the Linked Fire description last patch to be substantially more accurate. We are quite happy with this description as it fits with the existing in-game language while also including all necessary details "Unit can connect to the friendly root network within a 25m radius, enabling more powerful attacks. As long as the unit is out of combat, it counts as 3 supporters for the root network. When in combat, the unit can benefit from up to 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 supporters itself; it will then be able to continuously shoot each wave of thorns ever faster." 2. This is not possible.

Majora Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Kettle actually made a nice overview of how the root network works: More info: https://skylords-reborn.fandom.com/wiki/Root_Network Dallarian, Dutchy and PrincessKenny like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessKenny Posted August 1, 2022 Author Share Posted August 1, 2022 @Majora would be awesome to pin it somewhere visible. I see this 1st time and i was looking. In fact I have better idea but that's for discord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchy Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 We could make a !root command in the Discord with this imagine included if the creator agrees. PrincessKenny and Majora like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrdina_Imperia Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 So based on the picture, if I had 5 treespirits all engaged in combat, it meant I was not getting any bonuses from the root network? Wild. Majora likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutchy Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 The command !root has been created in the discord. Feel free to use it whenever you or anyone is in doubt of the functionality of the mechanic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimmieTuinbroek Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 The image above seems to suggest that if 2 entities benefit from the network, and there are 3 support "points" available, it will always be divided 2/1 and never 3/0? What happens if there are 8 supporters, and one entity is enjoying 5 of those. Then, one of the supporting entites also enters combat. Does it get the remaining 2 or does the network divide the points 4/3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kubik Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 every time and of the entities in the network changes "in combat" (quotes to not confuse with "combat" state, or "fighting" state, neither are official names 😛 ) state whole network support is recalculated, so to your example 🤔 not sure I get it correctly so few: 8 entities supporting 1 entity with cap of 5, and one of the 8 entities enter combat, means there are 2 entities that can get support and 7 that provide support. so it will be spitted 4 / 3 another way I can read your example is: there is 8 entities total and 1 is "in combat" receiving 5 support (meaning 2 supports are unused in the network), when another entity enters combat there will be 2 "in combat" and 6 providing support so each of them will get 3 support (unless the second entity does not have cap lower than that, but I think currently only Sun Reaver have cap lower than 3, but he does not provide any support) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
