Dear Tibians!

Please use this thread to share your feedback on the combat mode removal and mitigation changes.

The following changes have been made:
  • Combat mode has been removed and their effects have been re-added in the following ways:
    • The attack value bonus of the offensive stance is now a baseline effect for all characters (+20% attack value). The reduction for the defence value no longer exists.
    • The defensive bonus of the defensive stance has been compensated by increasing the defence of all shields by ~30% and all spellbooks by ~60%.
  • Mitigation is now calculated differently because combat mode no longer exists:
    • The type of weapon you wear now has a much larger impact on your mitigation.
    • Dedication perks now grant 0.075% mitigation multiplier per promotion point (Up from 0.03%)
    • Gems now provide 20/22/24/30% mitigation multiplier (Up from 5/5.5/6/7.5%)
Goal:
This change is aimed at reducing unnecessary complexity from the game (Combat modes) and increasing defensive options for characters.

We look forward to your feedback!
