The latest ACE Q&A has arrived, this time packed with new information updating the Crowfall Harvesting System as revealed last month. Thomas Blair and Mark Halash discuss how retooling has made it "a more interactive, less humdrum activity".
Some highlights from this stream include:
- The reticle will be off-center in the Survival and Ranged trays, to make targeting easier.
- Introduction of Weak Points! These targets allow critical hits to be more interactive.
- Harvesting pips!
- New Harvesting power. In the Survival tray you automatically have access to the basic Harvesting power: Energetic Harvesting. This takes advantage of the pips to allow for different buffs.
- A first look at Harvesting Disciplines that give bonus harvesting passives including Miner, Logger, Quarryman, and Skinner.
- Harvesting Disciplines that grant powers and passives unique (and very useful) to Harvesting including Lookout, Hoarder, Survivalist, and Connoisseur.
- Tasty, tasty Bloodworms that can be cooked and eaten to grant the Trailblazer buff.
