After your feedback, Crocus proposed new changes to the Sacrier class. It's time to put theory into practice with the new BETA version, which will be open starting this Thursday, February 27.

Here's an overview of the changes we've made:

• Removal of the Bleeding mechanic
• Enhancement of the Suffering mechanic (because they love it so much)
• Improvement of Berserk spells
• Overall balancing of spells (buffs and nerfs)

For all the details of these changes, check out the changelog: https://www.dofus.com/en/forum/1-log-book/336484-class-balancing-sacrier

Based on your feedback, other changes might take place during the beta period. It will remain open for about 1 month, which should be enough time to collect plenty of feedback and refine the balancing (and you know how refined we are).

Building a better beta

We'll be testing a different way of managing the beta than usual, to help us speed up this type of process in the future (for one-time betas on a specific issue).

You won't have your characters as you normally would, but you will have everything you need to test the changes under the best possible conditions:

• Access to most equipment in the game (Dofus included)
• Experience scrolls to test at different levels, just like with traditional levelling
• Various consumables

NPCs will be posted on the merchant squares in Astrup and Amakna Village to sell you these items and equipment for truly unbeatable prices.

Will we be able to fight in the Kolossium?

Yes, the Kolossium will also be accessible on the beta server for PvP players.

I don't have any kamas on the beta. What do I do?

May Enutrof have mercy… Every item and every piece of equipment will be sold for the paltry sum of just 1 kama. Even the tiniest achievement, level increase, or fight will give you enough to easily afford whatever you need. And if times still get tough, you can sell that same equipment back to the NPCs and cheat the God Enutrof himself. (Talk about a great system…)

We're looking forward to seeing lots of you on the server to get as much feedback as possible. So whether you're a Sacrier or not, feel free to come and have a look around!

Hey there!

As promised, here's a complete overview of the changes in the works for the Sacrier class. We'll start with the main issues and mechanics, and end with a detailed list of spells.

• Bleeding:
  • The Bleeding mechanic has been removed.
    • As I'd explained in one of my recent posts, this mechanic was initially created to allow the Mutilation and Coagulation spells to function. It had seemed interesting because it made it possible to store damage suffered independently of changes in Suffering, and I had, therefore, started extending it to other spells. Over time, however, it became clear that this mechanic was incomplete. It seemed to be both important and at the same time under-utilized by spells. In the suggestions we examined together last time, I was, therefore, envisaging extending the mechanic to more spells to make it truly interesting.
    • After careful reflection, however, we ultimately decided to remove this mechanic to place more emphasis on Suffering. It adds a layer of complexity to the class whereas we want to keep the Sacrier class among the simplest classes to understand and play.
    • Suffering is central to this overhaul, but Bleeding was overshadowing it without strengthening the class's berserker whimsy. With Bleeding, spell descriptions lose readability; it adds a state above the character that makes fights harder to follow and is sometimes confused with Suffering. Ultimately, this mechanic seems very artificial to me and doesn't add any more gameplay possibilities than better use of Suffering would. Developing the mechanic further would have been acceptable, but as I said above, it would have come at the risk of making the class unnecessarily complex.
    • The 10 spells that use Bleeding have therefore been adjusted accordingly, and you'll quickly realize that losing this mechanic in no way amounts to nerfing the class or taking away its fun.

.

• Positioning/Movement Spells: 
  • We had mentioned the idea of connecting positioning/movement utility spells to the Bleeding mechanic. Since it is being removed in this iteration I, therefore, propose to connect these spells to Suffering. In this way, Suffering takes on even more importance in the class's gameplay because an increase in mobility is added to tanking and damage when a Sacrier's Suffering is high, and all three of the class's roles are now linked to its main mechanic, which also increases coherence and whimsy.
  • Quite simply, the idea is to increase spells' range or movement distance as Suffering increases. For that to work, these spells' range becomes non-modifiable. You no longer need to optimize your Range in addition to everything else: Suffering takes care of that for you.
  • In terms of equipment optimization, it's a pure buff, but it is also a nerf and a buff in fights themselves: The range of these spells can no longer be increased via Range bonuses nor reduced by Range penalties, and only Suffering and the various states (Gravity, Unmovable, etc.) will constrain their use. In order to balance the values, since it's an overall boost, I took into account these spells' maximum range with a bonus of 5 Range (the maximum attainable with equipment) and I divided this value in two to obtain the new maximum non-modifiable ranges. As you'll see in the spells themselves, the Range and movement distance increases work by threshold, and so it is no longer necessary to be at Suffering 10 to start to take advantage of very interesting positioning abilities.

.

• The Berserk Spells (Nervousness, Immolation, Decimation, etc.): 
  • As planned, here are the changes to the 3- and 4-AP Berserk spells:
    • Spells at 3 AP: Damage is increased, and the damage increase now follows exactly the same evolution as Suffering, so you can now more rapidly enjoy good damage for longer.
    • Spells at 4 AP: The elemental damage formerly inflicted on the caster now becomes a loss of HP as a % of their current health. This % penalty no longer diminishes as the caster's Suffering increases, but it is as if it did because the caster's current HP drop with Suffering.
      • As a reminder, this shift to a HP % penalty makes it possible to no longer need to invest in fixed resistances and % of one's own element, to play any shield without it increasing or reducing the penalty, and of course to stop eroding oneself.
  • Finally, we will not disassociate the 3-AP spells from their 4-AP variants to allow both to be played simultaneously. This is the main interest of bi-element (and +) play – to be able to use the two mechanics at the same time by using 4-AP spells at the start of a fight to rapidly bring down one's HP, and then switch to 3-AP spells once the damage-to-AP ratios become interesting enough.
  • As a reminder, each path can play 4 spells simultaneously, along with one spell in the best element, and so there isn't any "gap" to fill. Many classes get by very well with four elemental spells. The problem therefore isn't with the number of spells but with the general way the class operates, and that is what we are trying to fix with all the changes you're reading today.
  • Regarding the Earth and Air spells, we ultimately decided to modify the areas of effect for Decimation and Carnage. We did not want to add additional mechanics, whether in the utility effects or a specific way of applying damage, because that would have been very artificial and would have made the "right" spell unnecessarily complex to create a slight difference. I therefore think that the area of effect is the best compromise because you'll have the choice, if you're playing an Earth/Air mode, of the following combinations:
    • Decimation + Fury: 1 spell that evolves with Suffering, lower damage but in an area of effect + 1 spell that evolves with Suffering, higher damage but on a single target.
    • Decimation + Carnage: 1 spell that evolves with Suffering, lower damage but in an area of effect + 1 spell with stable damage, lower but in an area of effect.
    • Gash + Fury: 1 spell with stable damage, higher but single target + 1 spell that evolves with Suffering, higher damage but on a single target.
    • Gash + Carnage: 1 spell with stable and higher damage but on a single target + 1 spell with stable damage, lower but on an area of effect.

.

• Erosion:
  • As we've seen, more spells are linked to Suffering, which also means that they become more sensitive to erosion. Luckily, several improvements have been made that will let you mitigate this weakness. In any case, erosion will remain the main counter for Sacriers, but it won't completely cancel out their passive and therefore their capacities.
    • The shift from self-mutilation damage to infinite HP % penalty means that they won't apply natural and non-natural erosion on you anymore, and will also let you increase Suffering even if you are eroded.
    • The new spell, Libation, which replaces Coagulation, and the new ways that the Blood Pact and Berserk spells work. These spells will let you, like with the 4-AP berserk spells, increase your Suffering independently of erosion suffered, and above all more quickly than the berserk spells. Thus, for example, if you need to gain 2 Range on your Transposition to go and strike an opponent or bring an ally home, these spells will let you do so immediately (but only occasionally, of course, because these spells keep the same recast intervals).

.

• Swords:
  • We had talked about adding Sword spells to let them interact in a new way with their summoner and vice versa. Ultimately, the decision was made to not add additional spells for the Swords but to add interactions with Sacrier spells so as to avoid making the Swords' turns more complicated and extend playing time. Once again, it's an "easy access" class, and the gameplay shouldn't come from summons but from the Sacrier themself.
  • We are therefore adding effects to the Sacrier spells that apply to Swords and now play with Suffering. Some effects apply to allies under similar conditions, but can therefore also affect Swords. This is probably one of the areas where we have the most room for improvement, but I think that you will probably like the effects already offered. If you have any ideas about interactions that we could add (without giving the class too much power), let us know and we'll discuss it. To fit properly, these interactions must come from the Sacrier, so no new spells on the Swords!

.


Now I'll let you discover in detail the changes made to each spell, with additional explanations for some of them!

But before that, here's a short key to make it easier to follow:
.

• No change: The spell hasn't been changed.
• NERF: The spell's power has been reduced.
• BUFF/NERF: The spell's power has been increased, but the increase is offset by a nerf, a partial drop in efficiency, or an additional constraint.
• BUFF: The spell's power has been increased.
• MOD/BUFF: How the spell works has been changed; it is therefore hard to say whether its now less powerful or not, but it would tend to be more powerful.
• MOD: How the spell works has been changed considerably or replaced with something new; it is therefore hard to say whether its now less powerful or not.

    • "Applies the Unlockable state and increases the caster's MP for 1 turn based on their Suffering. If the caster is at Suffering 5 or more, their Swords gain 2 MP for 1 turn and also become Unlockable."
      • Suffering 0: 1 MP

      • Suffering 9: 4 MP
      • Suffering 10: 4 MP
• Condensation: No change
• Influx: No change
• Hostility: BUFF
  • Slight buff for Hostility, which until now had been the weakest micro-positioning spell in the kit, especially compared to its variant, Projection.
  • Casting conditions: 
    • Maximum range: 1 → 2
    • Target needed: yes → no

• Projection: NERF
  • It had currently been the best micro-positioning spell in the kit because it was very flexible in its use and offered its caster a lot of positioning/movement a bit too easily. I decided to preserve the lack of line of sight to maintain this ability to move behind obstacles, but did so while forcing Sacriers to get out of a lock or place an entity to move with if they are already in close combat with an enemy. In this way, it is a better match for the Water path, which was designed for distance.
  • How it works:
    • "Inflicts Water damage. The caster is teleported symmetrically relative to the target."
  • Casting conditions: 
    • Minimum range: 1 → 2
• Thorn Crown: BUFF
  • Is now the variant of Pillory.
  • How it works:
    • "For 1 turn, the caster reduces damage suffered in close combat by 25% and reflects 25% of the damage they suffer in an area of effect around them. If the caster is at Suffering 5 or more, their allies 2 cells away or closer also benefit from Thorn Crown's effects."
• Jashin Ritual:
  • Is now the variant of Berserk.
  • Acquisition levels: 
    • 155 → 195
• Life Transfer: BUFF/NERF
  • Renamed Transfusion.
  • How it works:
    • "Transfers part of the caster's HP to allies in the area of effect. The caster performs a second HP transfer to allies in the Perfusion state."
• Riposte: BUFF
  • How it works:
    • "Moves the caster closer to the target. For 1 turn, when the targeted enemy inflicts damage on the caster, the caster moves closer to their attacker. The spell's range increases with the caster's Suffering."
    • The approach distance is now 7 cells.
      • Suffering 0: 5 Range
      • Suffering 1: 5 Range
      • Suffering 2: 6 Range
      • Suffering 3: 6 Range
      • Suffering 4: 6 Range
      • Suffering 5: 7 Range
      • Suffering 6: 7 Range
      • Suffering 7: 7 Range
      • Suffering 8: 8 Range
      • Suffering 9: 8 Range
      • Suffering 10: 8 Range
• Absorption: No change
• Slaughter: No change
  • Last time there was no consensus on the observations and proposal(s), so no change has been made for now since the spell works well and isn't really an issue as it is.
• Decimation: BUFF
  • How it works:
    • The evolution of damage is now aligned with that of Suffering.
  • Casting conditions: 
    • Area of effect: single target → orthogonal line of 1
  • Damage (Suffering 10):
    • +5.58%
      • Level 60: 25 to 28 (CH: 30 to 33) → 26 to 29 (CH: 31 to 35)
      • Level 127: 30 to 34 (CH: 36 to 41) → 32 to 36 (CH: 39 to 43)
      • Level 194: 34 to 38 (CH: 41 to 46) → 36 to 40 (CH: 43 to 48)
• Gash: BUFF
  • How it works: 
    • "The caster sacrifices some of their health points to inflict considerable Earth damage."
    • The Earth damage formerly inflicted on the caster has become a loss of HP as a % of their health.
      • -10 HP (infinite)
  • Damage (Suffering 10): 
    • +4.12%
      • Level 170: 47 to 51 (CH: 56 to 61) → 49 to 53 (CH: 59 to 64)
• Sacrifice: No change
  • No changes are planned for now. The issue of allies who don't have enough resistances in random Kolossium fights can arise and be bothersome, but it does not justify increasing the spell's power because that would also increase it for teams with much higher resistances and therefore make the spell too strong in many situations. The Sacrifice is used to protect an ally by using one's own health points in their place, so casting it when one's health is low is necessarily risky whether or not the ally has resistances.
    • There are other tools/spells available to protect not-very-tank-like allies:
      • Play Fire, with healing close combat, Absorption, Life Transfer and Perfusion.
      • Use the dissuasive combo of Sacrifice + Jashin Ritual (+ Pillory and Perfusion if needed).
      • Positioning in general, by putting one's ally out of range of enemy blows with Penitence, Transposition, etc.
• Penitence: No change
  • Here, we could consider adding a special effect on Swords to add an additional interaction, but only if we are not adding an effect that is already present in the class's kit and this effect is not too powerful so as to not overly buff the class. Once again, your ideas are welcome!
• Fury: BUFF
  • How it works:
    • The evolution of damage is now aligned with that of Suffering.
  • Damage (Suffering 10):
    • +13.92%
      • Level 70: 27 to 30 (CH: 32 to 36) → 30 to 34 (CH: 36 to 40)
      • Level 137: 34 to 38 (CH: 41 to 46) → 39 to 43 (CH: 47 to 52)
• Carnage: BUFF/NERF
  • BUFF How it works:
    • "The caster sacrifices some of their health points to inflict considerable Air damage in an area of effect. The progressive decrease in damage is greatly increased in the second and then third cell."
    • The Air damage formerly inflicted on the caster has become a loss of HP as a % of their health.
      • -10 HP (infinite)
  •  BUFF Casting conditions: 
    • Area of effect: single target → line of 3
  • NERF Damage (Suffering 10): 
    • -3.05%
      • Level 180: 47 to 51 (CH: 56 to 61) → 46 to 49 (CH: 55 to 59)
• Stase: No change
• Dissolution: No change
  • Several of you suggested allowing Dissolution to be cast at a Range of 0 to be able to make maximum use of the area of effect in situations where more than 2 enemies are in close combat with the caster. However, the Earth and Air paths are Sacriers' "close combat" paths and must therefore keep the advantage of being able to perform optimal health steals in close combat to maintain the balance with the Fire and Water paths that have the non-negligible advantage of larger range and areas of effect.
• Coagulation: MOD
  • Is now Libation.
    • How it works:
      • "The caster sacrifices 30% of their HP to be healed at the end of their next turn. The heal value increases with Suffering. Stops Mutilation."
        • Suffering 0: 10% of HP
        • Suffering 1: 11% of HP
        • Suffering 2: 12% of HP
        • Suffering 3: 14% of HP
        • Suffering 4: 17% of HP
        • Suffering 5: 20% of HP
        • Suffering 6: 23% of HP
        • Suffering 7: 26% of HP
        • Suffering 8: 28% of HP
        • Suffering 9: 29% of HP
        • Suffering 10: 30% of HP
    • Casting conditions: 
      • AP cost: 2
      • Maximum range: 0
      • Minimum range: 0
      • Modifiable range: no
      • Recast interval: 4/3
• Blood Pact: MOD
  • How it works: 
    • "Temporarily increases the caster's maximum Vitality."
      • 30% max. Vitality (3 turns)
  • Casting conditions: 
    • AP cost: 3
    • Maximum range: 0
    • Minimum range: 0
    • Max. stacking: 1
    • Recast interval: 3
• Pillory: BUFF
  • Is now the variant of Thorn Crown.
  • Acquisition levels: 
    • 85 / 152 → 155
  • How it works: 
    • "Applies the Unmovable state and reduces damage received from a distance. If the target suffers close-combat damage, the effects of the spell are removed. If the caster is at Suffering 5 or more, Pillory can no longer be removed."
• Berserk: MOD
  • Is now the variant of Jashin Ritual.
  • Acquisition levels: 
    • 195 → 85 / 152
  • How it works: 
    • "The caster goes Berserk: they become Unhealable and lose 90% of their HP to immediately reach Suffering 10, for 2 turns. The damage received while Berserk lasts is converted into Power. Puts the caster's Swords in the Berserk state and increases their Power."
    • No longer removes the effects of the Mutilation spell.
  • Casting conditions: 
    • Area of effect: 2-cell circle → single-target
    • Forbidden states: / → Jashin Ritual
    • Initial recast interval: / → 1
• Retribution: BUFF
  • Casting conditions: 
    • Initial recast interval: 1 → 0
• Bloodthirsty Madness: BUFF/NERF
  • How it works:
    • Damage is doubled on the caster's Swords.
      • 24 to 28 → 48 to 56 damage (best element)

Several new combos are hiding in this changelog. Can you find them all?


Here is a glimpse of the new distribution of spells and variants as well as their acquisition order, so you can better visualize the few changes. The spells in question are the following: Thorn Crown, Pillory, Berserk, and Jashin Ritual.


I sincerely hope that these changes are up to your expectations and that you like this new version! Your feedback has been a wonderful help. Thank you. Of course, it isn't perfect yet, but we're nearing the finish line. Your feedback after the BETA tests will be SUPER important as well; it will help us fine-tune this Sacrier changelog. If you have any questions until then, don't hesitate to share your feedback on the forum. 


Have a nice one, everybody!

[Crocus]

Simply put, because we had a few problems with the GIF. <_< We had a mini-story prepared in which all 3 Sadidas from this news image were featured. Alas, the technical gods were feeling mischievous that day...

Forget everything you think you know and embark on an adventure filled with surprises…

Keep your eyes peeled, for before long, they will rise…

DOFUS Retro Remastered FAQ

1. What is DOFUS Retro Remastered?

DOFUS Retro Remastered is an optional pack that offers a huge number of aesthetic and technical improvements: images in vector-graphics format, revamped spell icons, improved compression, remixes of all the music and sound effects, and of course a game-wide shift from 20 to 40 FPS.

2. How do I launch DOFUS Retro Remastered?

To launch DOFUS Retro Remastered: Open the DOFUS Retro tab in the Ankama Launcher, go to the game options menu (the one where you choose 32 bits or 64 bits) and switch from the classic pack to the Remastered pack. The file download will start automatically.

3. Why a beta version?

As with any project, we prefer to offer a beta version at first in order to identify any potential problems. In theory, DOFUS Retro Remastered is finished, but we want to test it with you, get your feedback and possibly spot any unexpected bugs, like abnormally fast animations or missing backgrounds. The beta will give us a chance to do a last round of "polish" before officially launching DOFUS Retro Remastered.

4. Is the trailer smoother than what we actually see in-game?

32-bit version of the client: The Flash player has a bug independent of the game that forces certain machines to switch to full-screen mode (CTRL+F) to achieve smooth results. We are studying player feedback to propose a fix.

64-bit version of the client: The bug does not occur in this version. While the display is a bit less smooth by default, this version is less prone to frame rate drops when the client is under heavy demand.

5. What about performance?

A Remastered client is almost twice as good as a classic client. Players can optimize their performance by changing certain display options (deactivate auras, lower creature mode) and by putting up with a few frame rate drops. To be sure, the simplest approach is to test on your machine. Certain aspects have been revised, notably the "ready" animation in combat; immunity, which had an exceptionally elaborate animation; etc.

6. A smoother game… does that mean a faster game?

The client runs more smoothly and is more responsive in the menus thanks to the 40 FPS frame rate, but the speed of the game is identical and doesn't offer any particular advantages. The game is simply more pleasant to interact with.

7. Will there be black and white icons to replace the color ones?

Yes! Only the color version will be available at first, however.

8. Will some changes from Remastered be transferred to the classic client?

Our goal is to offer you the same classic version that you've always known and to avoid making any visual changes to it. We are looking at a few improvements we can make, however, like fixes for certain bugs.

9. Will there be updates?

There will be some bug fixes if needed, but probably no major changes. Certain ideas that couldn't be implemented in time will appear in a later update.

DOFUS Retro just keeps getting better, and now it has its own avatar gallery! DOFUS Retro owes its charm to its unique and inimitable visual style. Want to proudly display your love for the game and your status as a member of the old-timers' fan club? Choose an avatar that lets everyone know you've been into this game since way back in the day!


Alongside the avatar gallery that's available to everyone, we're now adding a new gallery with all-new visuals. It's our way of rewarding the players who are making a positive contribution to the process of improving this version. Their invaluable assistance helps us to prepare awesome new updates. The list of players who have access to this gallery is updated every month, so if you don't see your name there yet, don't panic!


In the future, we may well decide to add more avatars to the default gallery and to create new galleries as well… with access reserved to the winners of certain events, for example.


So don't just sit there… Head straight to the gallery and choose your new avatar!

An invitation from the queen of the realm of the dead obviously isn't something you refuse! I mean… Theoretically, you could always try… But it won't be too good for your life expectancy! Don't worry, the Thanatena server won't send you straight to Externam. Before dying (for good!) in a world of miserable hurt, you'll have time to enjoy a few heart-pounding adventures.

We'd like to take this opportunity to announce that we've made some improvements to the Heroic game mode, effective on Thanatena and on Oto Mustam. Specifically:

• • There is no longer a minimum level requirement for the attacking character;
  • The rule limiting the resources obtained from achievements (limit of once per account for dungeon and monster-type achievements) is now the same as the rule applied on classic servers;
  • PvP fights conducted in parallel are limited when playing on multiple accounts;
  • Crafting (and therefore, use) of teleportation modules has been deactivated;
  • The Lakeside Palace and the Snowbound Village Manor can no longer be purchased;
  • The NPC Gill D'Allians has been added to the Astrub Militia. He sells Guildalogems and Alliagems, and also offers to teleport to guild temples and alliance temples.
  • The system for gaining XP in PvP has been modified to prevent fight fixing.

Come and join us in-game now!

Results of the second round

Let's get straight into the list of those who qualified for the second round! These participants passed the "All Kinds of Features" round with flying colors!
 

• Echo
• Ilyzaelle
• Shadow
• Oto Mustam

 

Round 3: Memory, turn your face to the moonlight...

Believe it or not, we've already reached the final round of the 2020 edition of Miss & Mister World of Twelve. And as you can guess from the title, this one is all about memories.

Among all the moments you've experienced in-game, there's surely one memory in particular that's permanently etched in your mind. So we're inviting you to share that memory not only through your choice of skin, but also in your own words with a brief roleplaying text in your character's voice to accompany your screenshot (up to 300 words; for texts longer than this, the roleplaying portion will not be taken into account, resulting in a points penalty).

Entries for this final round may be submitted from now until 2/28/2020 at 9:00 a.m. (Paris time). To enter, reply to this post with a screenshot of your character in-game and along with the following information: (Note that missing information will not be penalized, but we strongly recommend that you include this info to help us keep track of your entry.)
 

• Ankama account nickname (the one that is publicly visible on Ankama sites and forums)
• Game server
• Class
• Gender

Voting for the final round will work differently this time than in past editions, because scores will be broken down into 3 parts: the vote by members of the Skiny team, the CMs' vote, and of course the audience's vote in a poll (choice of one candidate for each group of finalists, male and female) that will be available after the entry period ends.

Each part of the vote will count for ⅓ of the total points. The winners will be those with the most points when all three parts are added together. By the way, the jury for the competition (Ankama staff and members of the Skiny team) will count the roleplaying portion toward their scores. So be sure to put some effort into your story!

At the end of this round, two characters (one male and one female) will be selected from across all classes and servers.

This time, this round's winners will receive*:
 

• a Makeover pack;
• a drawing of the finalists' skins by Colibry (2D Graphic Designer – Ankama);
• a choice of cosmetic object from the "Prestige" category (excluding services and packs); and
• A "Miss World of Twelve" or "Mister World of Twelve" amulet

 

MODALITIES & RULES

Every self-respecting event needs a few rules! The rules this time are basically the same as for the previous rounds, but we've decided to add a few extra details based on your questions:
 

• Your entry for this round must use the same character as in the previous round. No changes in class or gender are allowed between rounds.
• Only one entry per player is allowed.
• Entries with no role-play text at all will be disqualified. If the text is over 300 words, the entry will be recorded but penalized for violation of the length limit.
• The screenshot of your character must be taken on your server and not on the beta server. The screenshot must not have been edited, reworked or altered. Cropping is permitted, as long as it does not negatively affect image quality or visibility.
• Any screenshot that is of insufficient quality and/or fails to meet the above criteria shall be disqualified. In addition, any screenshot deemed off-topic, irrelevant, incomprehensible, vulgar, or pornographic, racist, or homophobic in nature, or contrary in any way to applicable laws or community standards shall be disqualified immediately.
• To make your character more lively, the use of emotes is strongly recommended.
• Pets, mounts and petsmounts are allowed.
• There is a limit of one items for sets.

We have decided to set such rules above all to maximize your creativity and artistic sense. We would like to showcase your talents to offer even more original skins!

Hello everyone! Thanatena, the new heroic server, will open its doors at 4 pm. Are you ready?

This is a known issue linked to the presence of invalid mount certificates in one's inventory. It has no impact on your mounts kept in the shed or in the paddock. 
The team has been nudged.
 

DOFUS Retro (Remastered) is an expression of our community's deep dedication to the DOFUS adventure. To be more specific, DOFUS Retro (Remastered) is the result of a happy coincidence combined with the initiative of a passionate player.

Just as DUSK was working on some graphical improvements to the animations in his favorite MMO (DOFUS version 1.29), Ankama was getting ready to release DOFUS Retro. Positively gobsmacked (and that's putting it lightly!) by the work put in by this dedicated player, the teams working on the game decided to set up an official version of this revised and improved take on DOFUS Retro.

And so DOFUS Retro (Remastered) was born!

A complete audio and visual overhaul that takes the game from 20 to 40 FPS, DOFUS Retro (Remastered) stands alongside the original as a second option. Players are free to choose the mode they prefer when diving into the adventure. We'd like to give a shout out to the essential work done by the graphics teams and the sound department, without whom these improvements wouldn't have had the same flavor. The remixed soundtrack will give longtime players an immersive experience as deep as their dedication to the game. It's enough to give them the chills…

Blending the first few charming hours of DOFUS with the latest graphics updates, this open beta test for DOFUS Retro (Remastered) is perfect for all you purists who don't mind a little added comfort in your in-game experience! Feel free to share your feedback with us so that we can continue to improve this option!

Mark your calendar for Wednesday, February 26, to check out this new option through the game launcher portal (or Ankama Launcher)!

You get this message upon accessing the paddock interface, right? Do you have any invalid certificates in your inventory, by any chance?

Not long ago, we announced a new collaboration between Ankama and Displate, a company specializing in metal posters that offers a wide variety of illustrations, photos and images of all kinds, designed by artists from around the globe.

Draconiros, the master of dreams, had the honor of opening the ball. Today, Ankama returns with 4 new Displates posters*! Aguabrial, Tylezia, the Brotherhood of the Forgotten, and the DOFUS adventurers – now you just have to choose which one to get... or get them all!
 

LET'S GO!

Did you try swapping to another language and then back again to the language you usually play DOFUS in?

If not, did you contact Support? If so, please share with me your ticket number.

A fix for this bug was deployed with yesterday's maintenance. The changelog for yesterday's maintenance is being translated.

You can go and speak with Gizmond Quelyn. He will give you a new temporal prism.
 

I have nudged the team for an update on the matter. I will let you know if I get an update. 

EDIT:
I derped. When the command doesn't understand the coordinates, it will always default to 0,0.
Don't use [] in the command. Typing "/travel xx,yy" is enough and will work.
 

Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
It has been reported to the team.

Are you still experiencing this problem?

Last week, on Monday, February 10, we held an Ankama Live to discuss what’s happening on both DOFUS and DOFUS Retro, where a wide range of topics and questions were covered, amongst which:

• Eliocalypse: some background and the second part of the 2.54 update.
• DOFUS 2 miscellaneous topics, from server merges to what’s next in terms of class balancing and the Infinite Dreams’ XP gain nerf.
• DOFUS Retro and the upcoming server merge. Paddocks, houses, moderation and anti-bot measures. And, last but not least, DOFUS Remastered.

Go and have a look at the video! We added a list of all the topics of discussions in the video description so you can go straight to the topic that most interests you.

The answers are just one click away!

 

Very soon, a new heroic server will open its doors. Doors that lead to a world that is not always rosy, where sometimes it's a matter of death and atrocious suffering. Much like Her Majesty Queen Thanatena's land… What? You don’t know who we're talking about?! Hmm… All right then, a little introduction is clearly in order.
 
Thanatena is the queen of Externam, that land as gray as the complexion of a dying adventurer, the ultimate stopping place, the exit door that souls take when they leave the World of Twelve once and for all… For those who still haven't understood: the kingdom of the dead (or, more accurately, "the realm after death")!
 
As the goddess of death, it's only natural that she's decided to preside over the arrival of the new heroic server, where death is about more than a few energy points, and death sentences cannot be appealed!
 
What do you say? Are you up for the challenge?
 
Pre-registration for this server is open and it's in your interest to participate since doing so comes with gifts specifically for this server (which will no longer be the case once the server is open). Don't waste any time!
If the queen summons you, you'd better be well dressed when you answer her call, even if it's for the last time…
 

Why pre-register?

Pre-registering lets you:

1. enjoy the new server, Thanatena, from the get-go; and
2. get a gift of 3 Fashion Victim mystery boxes, available only on Thanatena.

PRE-REGISTER NOW!
 

About Heroic Servers

• Thanatena is a new server that will offer the "heroic" game mode. In terms of content, all the new features that arrive in DOFUS 2 will also arrive in Thanatena, but with one specific difference: In this game mode, unlike the others, death in combat (both in PvP and PvM) is permanent. Lose a fight and you lose your character and all of your character's experience points (back to level 1), their equipment and everything in their inventory at the time of death (except items in chests), their experience in professions, and their Quests and Achievement progress – absolutely everything. Welcome to the heroic server!

 

• To help you progress on the server, character experience, loot, and profession experience are automatically multiplied by 3 compared to "classic" servers. In addition, following a death, any character that is replayed also receives double the character and profession experience gains (bringing the total multiplier to x6) until they reach the highest level they had previously reached in-game.

 

• When you die, all your accumulated wealth is therefore lost… but not gone!
  • If you die fighting a group of monsters, every item of your equipment and the contents of your inventory will have a 75% probability of being conserved and randomly redistributed to the monsters in the winning mob's zone. The items can then be retrieved by any other character who wins a fight against the mob carrying your items.
  • If you die fighting other characters, they are the ones who recover your equipment and the contents of your inventory, with the same 75% probability of item conservation. 

 

• While these special features are precisely what makes heroic servers so interesting, they unfortunately can also lead less conscientious players to develop tricks to cheat and ruin the game experience for others. In order to avoid and control these unacceptable antics that are the opposite of heroic, very strict, specific rules are necessary in addition to the general rules.* Multi-accounting in PvP, bug exploitation, anti-gaming, fixing fights for profit, client modifications, and being an accomplice in such situations will expose you to sanctions that could result in your being permanently banned from the game.

 

Edit on February 21

Most of you have expressed your concerns about the modifications to DOFUS's Heroic mode. Please find the complete list of modifications for this game mode below. Keep in mind that these modifications will not only be available on Thanatena, but on both Heroic servers (Thanatena and Oto Mustam) since the changes affect the complete heroic experience.

• In PvP no minimum level will be required for the attacking character.
• The number of resources obtained by successes will now have the same limitations as on the Classic servers (1 time per account for dungeon and monster type based successes).
• There's now a limitation on to the number of simultaneous PvP fights when using multiple accounts.
• Teleportation modules will be disabled and can no longer be crafted or used.
• The Lakeside Palace and the Snowbound Village Manor are no longer available for purchase.
• A new NPC has been added to the Astrubian Milita: Gill D'Allians. He sells Guildalogems and Alliagems and also teleports your character to the Guild and the Alliance Temples.
• The PvP-XP formula has been modified in order to stop fight fixing for profit.

Pre-registration will be closed on Monday, February 24, at 09:00 a.m. (CET) and the server will open its doors on Tuesday. As usual, keep your eyes on our @DOFUS_EN Twitter account where we'll announce the exact time.

Edit:
Thanatena, the new heroic server, will open its doors at 4 pm. Are you ready?

As the Too Faux Karnaval draws near, the entire Masqueraider community is in a flutter. For many, Karnaval is above all about socking away as many doughnuts as they can – those famous gobbutter doughnuts made specially for the occasion – but for Sadida's masked disciples, it's an entirely different matter. In order to celebrate the event every year, Twelvians have taken to disguising themselves, and our many-faced warriors cannot pass up such a lovely occasion to hide behind their Boowolf masks and do whatever they like…

Are you planning to join in the festivities? To get yourself noticed (while remaining anonymous – that's the tricky part), we recommend the Masqueraider Class Pack, available through February 26 in several versions:

• a pack containing the Masqueraider set and the Masqueraider Dragoturkey harness (€12 or 12,000 OG);
• a pack containing the Masqueraider set and the Masqueraider Rhineetle harness (€12 or 12,000 OG);
• a pack containing the Masqueraider set and the Masqueraider Seemyool harness (€12 or 12,000 OG); and
• a pack containing the Masqueraider set, all three harnesses, and the Masqueraider class emote (€22 or 22,000 OG).

You can also get the Masqueraider set alone for €8 or 8,000 OG, and the three harnesses for €7 or 7,000 OG each.

DON'T MISS OUT!

 

You will get 20 Saint Bonnetwines if you do the Almanax quest "Offering for Duf" on all 20 characters of your account today.  Having completed the quest in previous years doesn't count. :wicked:

To take part, you just need to take a screenshot of your character in the game, then publish it on the dedicated topic. At the end of this round, two characters (one male, one female) will be selected per server, all classes combined. This time, this round's winners will receive*:
 

• a Makeover pack;
• a "Miss Amakna" or "Mr. Amakna" amulet; and

Duf, the Meridia of Luv, is getting ready for his biggest day of the year… Every year, it's the same old song. "I love you, my lilpiwi!" "You're as warm and sweet as a Golden Brioche fresh from the oven!" "Your daddy must be a Sram, 'cause he stole all the stars from the Krosmoz and put them in your eyes…"

The sweet nothings whispered by lovers as they smooch on park benches ooze and drip everywhere and splash you without warning. Put an end to this goopy overdose of love and these disgusting displays of affection in the traditional way: by clobbering some pink Gobballs!

You see, while Saint Ballotwine is undoubtedly the holiday for heartsick lovers everywhere, it's also high season for another illness known as Chocrosis, the result of an unfortunate experiment by Otomai, the greatest alchemist of all time.

Are you more the type to scream your love loud and proud to the whole World of Twelve? Well, first of all, take a breath and calm down! And now, let us remind you that DOFUS gives you the option to get married in-game! Those who haven't yet found that special someone can choose to wear the St. Ballotwine's Day Hat to signal that their heart is up for grabs! (Use the -> RETROLOVE2020 <-  gift code to get your St. Ballotwine's Day Hat on DOFUS Retro)

This is also a good time to remind you that if you complete the "Offering for Duf" quest, you'll receive a Saint Bonnetwine hat starting next week.*

So to sum up: whether you're a bashful lover or a sassy single, join us in-game starting today at 17:00 (CET) to celebrate Saint Ballotwine!**
 

For Saint Ballotwine: 20% off on many services (note: offer valid only for DOFUS 2)

Winning your crush's heart can be tough if your name is Crusty Bunz or Droop Flopsalot. Especially if you've got the body of a Peki Peki crossed with a Pikoko.

Want to maximize your chances of charming that special someone who not only gets your left and right ventricles pumping in harmony, but your vena cava, aorta and tricuspid valve too? Then hurry to the shop to check out our selection of services! To help you decide, we're offering a 20% discount on changing your character's name, sex, colors, face or class, and on the Makeover Pack, Mimisymbics, and the "New Life" Bundle.

Hello, everyone!

In the last few days you might have seen some announcements about the drop rate for legends acquired from chests in the Infinite Dreams. That's because tomorrow marks the arrival of the Dreams balancing update that was announced in this devblog last November.
Scroll down now to comb through the list of changes coming tomorrow (these will also be available in the changelog; I've just added a bit more detail here for those who are curious!).

Experience

We've updated the experience gain; the following issues have been fixed:

• The gain is no longer excessive as it was in 2019.
• The gain is no longer ridiculous beyond floor 400.
• The way the gain is calculated now works with difficulty score.

The base experience gained in Dreams progresses as follows for a level 200 character without wisdom, experience multipliers, idols, or challenges (values have been significantly rounded):

• Floor 200: 480000
• Floor 300: 650000
• Floor 400: 730000
• Floor 1000: 860000

This base is influenced by the difficulty score; each point above (or below) the floor increases (or decreases) the base gain by 1%.

This is in addition to wisdom, multipliers, challenges, and idols.

Note: These changes should stabilize the experience gain in Dreams, reduce unpleasant surprises, as well as prevent overuse. We'll of course continue to keep an eye on Dreams and listen to your feedback on this.

Difficulty Score

We've changed the way this score is calculated on the basis of your feedback. The difficulty rating for keepers has been updated, and the (hidden) importance of the map has been reduced, particularly for weak keepers. You should no longer (too often) come across rooms that seem a lot easier but have higher scores than difficult rooms.
 
The specifics:

• Each keeper's power rating is better and more current.
• Waves of keepers are now rated higher to offset the arduous aspect of combat.
• The importance of the map has been reduced for keepers deemed weak.
• Scores have been increased slightly on floors 200-220.
• The impact of nightmares and paradoxes has been reduced slightly.
• The keeper's double is even more highly valued than before.

Note: This new way of calculating the score should have more reliable results in most cases. If you find this isn't the case while playing, please let us know in the forums.

Dream Points

The dream point gain has been changed slightly to add value to rooms with high scores, reducing the impact of challenges on gains.

• The maximum base dream point gain has been reduced from 400 to 350.
• The score's influence is increasing from 1% to 2% (extra gain per score point above or below the floor).

 

Characteristic Bonuses

Characteristic bonuses will be much more common in lower floors (below 400).
 
For anyone who's interested, here is a before-and-after of the approximate distribution (in %) of various types of purchases in the Infinite Dreams:

Type	Floor 201	Floor 251	Floor 301	Floor 351	Floor 401
Redistribution	16 → 9.7	15.5 → 9.5	15.5 → 12.3	15.5 → 14.5	15.5 → 15.5
Characteristic bonus	8 → 44.3	11.4 → 45.5	11.4 → 29.5	11.4 → 17.2	11.4 → 11.1
Positive modifier	12.9 → 13	12.4 → 12.8	12.4 → 16.5	12.4 → 19.4	12.4 → 20.8
Additional keeper	63.1 → 33	60.8 → 32.3	60.8 → 41.7	60.8 → 49	60.8 → 52.6

Beyond floor 400, the proportion of increased and maximum bonuses is what changes. The accumulated probability of getting these bonuses doesn't change, but an increased bonus is now more likely than a maximum bonus (50/50 → 67/33).

Legends

As you already know, the drop rate for legends and animal legends will be reduced. We think it's better over the long run to keep these items very rare.

Ornaments

Dreamer ornaments 2-13 are finally available from the NPC Infinu on the map to enter the Well of Infinite Dreams. You'll only be able to view one price at a time, so here's the complete list:

• Dreamer 2: 400 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 3: 5,000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 4: 48,000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 5: 290,000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 6: 1 200 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 7: 4 500 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 8: 14 000 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 9: 42 000 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 10: 115 000 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 11: 320 000 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 12: 850 000 000 infinite reflections
• Dreamer 13: 2 000 000,000 infinite reflections

 
We reckon it'll take the most committed players several years to unlock the last ornament. Feel free to prove us wrong!

---

That's all for tomorrow!
