You should check out "Warcana".

Chappll, this stream was my favorite so far. At this stage in the games life it's almost more entertaining to watch builds that have limitations (1 or 2 weapons) and seeing what can be done with them in the hands of a skilled player. Hope to see more of these!

Any PvP structure will eventually need a matching system to support willing players to further hone their skills and protect new players to from getting whooped into oblivion. I think there are some very popular games that don't have ranks but I have no knowledge as to how they do it. Personally, pushed myself into playing a PvP server after finishing the game on brutal and now I'm thoroughly afraid of encountering another player at my level, let alone higher than me, because I will most likely get my ass handed to me. But there's nothing else to do except castle building which honestly I envy people who enjoy doing that because mine looks like a gigantic warehouse that shits out a horde of mosquitos once in a while. I wish there was another level of items that had wide range of stats that had the potential to be strongest of gears. Slap down a procedurally generated dungeon or a tower and I'm down to play this game for the next decade baby. I don't know Merlin's Tower or Maze of the Minatour or whatever, I don't even care what it is. Endless my little pony ranch for all I care.

I remember getting a lowest tiers score of 1 on CT with Rosalia. Was a really fun flex, too bad score decay and the fact that on casual no one is ever actually doing anything means no one on the enemy teams would've likely seen it.

2 tower Chimps series when?

I wish only using one weapon wouldn't be at such a disadvantage.

has anything changed in the last month in balance patches?

Lol blub suck

For the dog, also us the "Ammo Expert" ascension as it recovers ammo every second while duel wielding with a chance not to consume any ammo at all. I constantly held down fire and wasn't close to losing all my ammo.

Hey Chappll today I played aganist a rogue player who uses blood rage + power surge with whip and it was really hard to desl with. As a scholar what builds can I use to counter those kind of movement builds?

Sorry my mic was off i said gg wp at the end 2:40:37

Rogue/shadowmoon needs a nerf games imbalanced in the open world

Games great just wish other sets were viable in the open world. Rogue shadowmoon, crushes biuld diversity in the open world. Unfortunate, but its killing the game

u think i should tryy this build?

Hey man great to see your videos, this is pretty much the build i use. I also change phantom aegis for the ilusión counter or chaos shield depending. It's hard to make work with all the move speed out there but it's super satisfiying when You land the combos. I'll share another combo that works great for me but i havent seen you use. If you are running the cast speed Jewel for lance (which You always should at least 22%) You are able to hit lance and freeze ppl right after a mace E. Having this in mind i usually engage with greatsword Q with condemn for the extra 15% then i switch to Legendary mace for the stun on E which also applies chill. Then i quickly use lance for a bunch of damage. (Condemn from gs and chill from mace +75% dmg). It deals way more dmg than just using the ilusión gs + legend xbow combo. I think combining the mace in the build really helps on changing the pace and it's the only way to do full damage on the first lance. Of course i'm not as good a You My friend this is why i would like You to try it and see how it works on high lvl play :). Greatsword can stay ilusion if You don't care for that extra 15% from condemn. Other weapons stay ilusion to combo with the xbow. Súper cool to see how You make scholar blood work.

10:52 is insane. Def wanna see that corrupted skull jewel effect.

Dude i love dark and darker also its a great game

The Fountain hate... "Feels like Rite heals more than Blood Fountain" yeah mate, except fountain literally heals 4x as much.

That was cheeky lad

I don't necessarily agree with you on everything, but I do agree with you about open world pvp servers. Glad someone is bringing it up as issue.

Hey there! Here's the thing, I have a suggestion for a partnership, but you're missing the business email info in your description. It's not convenient to discuss it in the comments.

Supportive comment!

You truly make the best content chappl, thanks :)

Hi Chappll EU V arena connection is wrong it is 46.4.112.197:8000

ALL HAIL CYCLONE

Hello Sir, have you the time to talk about our Lord and Saviour Blood Fountain? Here is why it's actually a S-Rank spell: 1. Numbers. It's the highest % swing spell in the game (non ult and dpending on how coil is calculated). If we talk Arena, with perfect jewels it potentially swings for up to 385% power (not exactly because the +% isn't calculated with spellpower. It's actually 359%). Sounds insane? It is. Also, why is "infinite suistain" not immediate S-Tier in Arena? In addition, the logic applied to it seems to be a double standard. If V Rising combat is about trading, looking at damage and heal seperately is flat out wrong. 2. Utility. The insane numbers are actually with a build in cleanse (1x) already. If it swings for less, lets say 30% less (~16% actually), it has the option to boost the movement speed 2x by up to 16% for 3s (so 6s in total) - non fading i might add - or a point and click 1.2s fading snare, which is also applyable 2x. Leech is cool. 3. Flexibility. The options mentioned are combinable. Meaning insane swings with very good utility. It also is multiplied when teammates are involved. In addition it is blood-type indepentent and pairs excellent with every school of magic. 4. Healing being bad in ow is a scewed perspective, combining multiple factors from the wrong end. Potions are roughly a 1s cast, immobile and the heal instantly gets interrupted upon taking damage also. Healing spells offer the possibility of constant aggression and the very interruption of a Potion and, therefore, are able to take advantage of the vulnerability of the enemy while he takes or attempts to take one. It's also not like one can't use a potion itself when running healing spells. Point 2 and 3 demonstrate that fountain offers way more than healing in ow too, even offering a insane buff to the best stat in ow; movement speed. 5. It goes through every barrier, counter and shield. You can also combine it very well with Sword Q, countering these type of spells effectively (yes, Discharge knockback considered). Everything above combined makes it an easy S-Tier spell, but I want to close it out with a reference to your point about Blood Rage. It's not like Blood Rage does everything Fountain does but better. I know it's not meant to be taken literally but it's still not true. If anything, it's the other way around. Of course Fountain gives no shield or attack speed but it, funnily enough, gives everything else but "better". It heals for more than double the amount, the speed isn't fading, it provides more unconditional value and actually deals / helps with the most prevalent defenses. Rage does not help against those. I'm not saying Rage isn't as good as you say, it's crazy and I always said it's also better than Power Surge. Fountain is just that crazy too.

If that game gets popular, it will be kinda ironic for battlerite devs, sad that they couldn't see the success :/ Nonetheless, I hope the game gets big, I love top-down / isometric PVP games! <3

What is the second best thing to use your e for, instead of crossbow e (legendary)?

I only used a storm tree only once since it has to be the most overpowered school I'd say. Next storm only do Ball lightning and cyclone. Ball lightning is so quick to cast and recast and with scholar it does more than 100 damage on recast quite often and the stuns are really nice. Hard to play with but nice. And cyclone ofcourse is broken so makes up for Ball lightning not being that good of a spell

hope i remember this when game revives in 2k25

Imagine if illu dash didnt have the clone grief you... 🤤

that combo at the end of the video is so beautiful.. omg.. from max to 0. enemy couldnt even play the game bro.. what gear do u use ? im new, i would like to try this buikld

People would easily rather dod PVE than PVP nothing worse than building a cool base to wipe for the same repeitive crap over and over

The game already has extraction looting elements, it's the hot spots. Copper, quin, iron etc. the issue is the progression gap and gear disparity. It's obvious servers need more players for it to feel like a pvp server and not a private lobby. Stunlock's marketing is lacking and only major updates will bring player's back for a few months. They need to speed things up and add more dynamic events for pvp interaction in the open world.

my fav school :) rage+rite + dash, all with phys damage increase. Wild.

Where can i join into v arena?

makes me wanna get back on, I havent played arena in a few days because of Albion

ggs sir

3:09:06 i was that girl, thank you so much for praising me, perses and tihonya taught me how to play this game 🤗

@StunlockStudios2 There is something to listen, listen carefully! Thanks for video, Chapp!🐀

So there was a discussion on steam in the discussion section for this game and it was titled "game is dying" which it is.. goes on to talk about the durability loss on pvp servers how it will affect new players coming into the game only for the pvp how it will turn them off finding out after breaking their gear how much it actually takes to repair it.. meaning bruh you gotta farm ur literal ass off to play this game pvp with no settings tweaked. it is far more of a grind than rust, which also turns people away once they find out. anyways the DEV replied and said when he made the game, he didn't need anyone to enjoy it. and that nothing needs fixed. acknowledged the fact that the game only keeps 2 out of every 10 players and gives a finite experience to those 2 of 10 players. i mean when he said he didn't need anyone to enjoy it, sounds like a literal no fucks given, they built the game and made whatever they could, and still can while losing 6,000 players in 30 days. i wouldn't keep hopes up for new changes. i mean. taken by what was said. figured i would just throw this out there.

Man... 6/7 years ago when I was pitching a game for the company that I was working at the moment, I was pitching exactly that, an extraction game with a PVP like battlerite (I loooooved the combat that they have on that game, and I also love the combat on vrising). They basically have everything... they have the awesome combat, they have the creatures, they have the "vampire universe", they have the crafting (you could extract with crafting materials to improve your gear), everything! I honestly think they are sitting in a goldmine which they could easily explore without too much production cost.

The game is truly split in two. I initially thought that PvE would serve as a "tutorial" to entice player into the PvP game, but most people dont feel any incentive to give it a try once they beat Dracula. Therefore, we got a PvE game, that is very decent, but suffer from some limitations due to things needed to be balanced / useful for PvP too. And we have a PvP game that suffers from a lack of marketing, clear identity (most rust/ark players never heard of v-rising) and punishing skill cap. I m personally a lot into the strategic part of the PvP game, loving base design and raiding so i wouldnt be a fan of an extraction version. That said, there is no easy way out of the current situation

I like the extraction looter idea. The open world in v rising is so good that this extraction genre would really benefit from it. I always thought removing the player castles from the open world and just having them as private instances where you could return with your loot was a great concept. Castle raiding could be alot more fair with no risk of third parties getting involved.

Relience on players

yea.. sadly the game seems to center too much on PvP, its not a bad thing but it does alienate a good chunk of its potential player base, in addition to what you said I think Stunlock should emulate for this loot extraction idea Dungeons and Dragons online, as in the element of that game for those who played it where you can go with a team or solo into separate dungeon maps to complete quests and such, and if we are already talking about quests I think this is another thing that is missing from the game, why not make those dungeons daily quests or something like that you can accesses via transforming into a human and talking with specific human NPCs in an Area that does not allow PvP, something like a city with very high level NPCs that will ruin any and all players due to them being unfair so that players wont simply camp the NPCs and kill you the moment you exit your form. There are probably more problems such as clans potentially circling the zone to jump players or clans that finished quest so I think there should be a unique teleporter there that allows you to TP with loot back to base given you completed a quest and have a one of a kind item to use it so players wont abuse it to much. what do you think? about the specifics i mentioned? Edit: Mind you a lot of the appeal for some players in the game comes from the cosmetics and base building elements rather than the grind or PvP or PvE

valid points - extraction looter v rising would be awesome to see.

vrising is fine, but extraction looters are even more tedious. it could be its own different game, just like they did with battlerite royale

Quad pvp server clan of 5-6 split into 6 seperate castles and they all protect the one castle with all the shards while steamrolling the server, that's what killed the server we were playing .

my biggest problem is the abilities that counter. i think they are broken and better with certain weapons and being able to completely negate someone cd and do damage and an effect is just way too much.
