That sounds like a really interesting idea for an entirely separate game that doesn't already have a main plot. Given this game and its identity, I really doubt we'd get kidnapped and enslaved outside of a bad end. Of course, bad ends are where you can really go wild, but in the main game we would probably never see this, with just the least of the problems being that all agency is taken away for the scenario to even start. If this was consensual, I could see some play scenarios like this happening, but I definitely doubt Kiyoko would let herself get treated like that by someone that isn't the Champ.

Maybe a scenario where the mistress for debts demands that the champion come for a week with a female companion so that she would work off the debt? In this scenario, she could use Kiyoko by force

 

[WolframL]

What debts? Savarra is a cash-up-front society, as seen at every level from Garth demanding payment up front before starting work on the temple/wayfort to Keros getting your soul and then soulbinding you. You can't end up in a situation where you owe money (and the idea that your Champ suddenly does to facilitate a one-off scenario would rub people the wrong way) so you can't end up in a situation where someone can extort you to trade sex in place of money.

Also pretty sure there are no 'rich ladies with mansions' anywhere near Hawkthorne, since Evelyn has that sort of position covered and she makes such a stir that it's clear she's unique in the area. The centers of civilization where you could find somebody like that are far enough away to be effectively out of the narrative, with the possible exception of Khor'minos with its senatorial class and Arille already has the 'rich girl who wants to domme the Champ' angle covered, albeit penis-gated.

id like to learn mistress matiha's shadow clone spell like how you can learn berwyn's rock golem spell

Heya! Long time off-again-on-again lurker, some thoughts after getting back into CoC2 after a few years of letting content gather:

QoL
1. The ability to search through powers via tags only, maybe a second search bar in the powers screen? Idk how difficult that would be to do...

2. Weapon/Armor tag details somewhere in the codex so people who try to not use the wiki can still figure out what they do. (Looking at you, Thrown/Light tags!)
2a. Maybe also an explanation in codex about what tags on powers do? I'm pretty sure I've figured out that the weapon tag on a power means it's a weapon strike, but still wondering in my lizard brain if I'm wrong.

3. Maybe a hint for the gem puzzles that diagonal IS adjacent? Had a hard time with the ship one because some games use adjacent for only cardinally (as in up down and sideways) and being kinda... radially? node-ly? idk... here. That's more of an industry inconsistency thing though.

4. Letting the Powers level slider go up to the highest level power you possess.

5. If you find important info that you can't refer back to, maybe have it become a codex entry in a truncated or summarized format? For instance totally didn't realize the Giants Gloves Vault required you to type the password in- thought reading the doc for the password would make it a button press option, so I didn't write it down and man that was a mistake!

6. Clarification somewhere as to what stat/damage increases are %-based and what's flat increases. I.E. Does rend to basic attack damage +50 flat, or 150% basic attack damage?

7. In game way to learn what buffs/debuffs do WITHOUT having to see them in battle. Codex or a training center if one is ever implemented?


Mechanical
1. Letting reapplying debuffs that ARE NOT prone/stun increase the debuff duration for QoL. Maybe some type of similar change for DoT's that also changes the damage to the average DPT of the new total so as to not break them?

2. Cestus/Glove weapons, just so I can make my 'punchy' girl actually... well... punch...

3. More Dual Wielding powers- maybe a physical version of that one spell that bounces around until it misses, flavored as a flurry or a frenzy?

4. Maybe some same-companion-set power upgrades/sidegrades? I.e. Ice Brint gets access to a lower cd/at-will chill-applying power, Cait can swap heal to Great Heal when she gets to higher levels, or Regular Brint can spec out of Rend for a different warrior power (possibly dominance or Dual Blitz?), etc. Idk how feasible this would be to code and keep track of though, if I get better at coding I might attempt a mod and submit a framework if it works. All so that you can more fine-tune your party to a playstyle/area, especially if you're doing a dark run...

1. More speech battles. Those are fun, AND get to be info-dumpy! Had great fun with figuring out Convocation and Centaur Chief.

 

[Aelana]

It would be especially odd if Champ's companions were Quint and Brint. A lesbian sees a trio of guys and decides to kidnap them to be her own personal sex slaves for no apparent reason.

"Your honor, my client is simply stupid. When the plaintiff claimed it was not a minotaur penis, but a giant clitoris, my client blindly trusted those claims and proceeded with oral sex. The plaintiff has testified under oath that: She was damn good with her mouth". Your honor, my clien is no danger to society."

berwyn's rock golem spell

I read "cock golem spell". Now I can't get rid of it. Would be nice, wouldn't it?

 

[Necros]

Cestus/Glove weapons, just so I can make my 'punchy' girl actually... well... punch...

Devs stated already that unarmed wont be a thing.

 

[Tlatchga]

Devs stated already that unarmed wont be a thing.

As far as I read, the rationale for that was the devs didn't want people to go weaponless. What I'm wishing for is a one-off weapon (probably 2-handed and dealing crushing damage, maybe some bells and whistles as a special effect) as a minimum, with far above what I hope for or expect being an entire new weapon set or line consisting of different punch weapons like punch daggers, knuckles, and cestuses. It/they would be classified and treated as weapons, mostly just a flavor text thing.

Lol
But I'm really interested to see a rich bitch who would want to get her hands on a champion and companions. Also, I really would like to see the enslaved Ponygirl Kiyoko

6. Clarification somewhere as to what stat/damage increases are %-based and what's flat increases. I.E. Does rend to basic attack damage +50 flat, or 150% basic attack damage?

Rend says that it has +50 attack power. The Codex states, in the Attributes & Stats and Combat Basics sections, that Attack Power is a percentage increase. I believe that all attack power gets added together too, though; a character with 8 strength has 24 attack power, so using rend would make an attack with 74 attack power multiplying your weapon's damage by 1.74. Again, what attack power does is stated in the codex. As far as I can tell, there aren't any powers that just add a flat extra damage bonus unless it's derived from some other stat, generally spellpower adding an extra damage type with its own base damage onto your weapon's normal damage.

Taking a closer read and look at the powers, it's pretty clear. I was just being the dumb - thanks for pointing that out!

 

[Tlatchga]

One more thing QoL possibility for Hoarders: A little more robustness in storage management, as in you can choose what order item types appear in your storage instead of it seemingly showing by what you put in first being on top or some other nebulous order currently used, I.E. you could set it to sort everything alphabetically, or by item tag type (weapons, armor/attire bits, consumables, etc., all while on the same page, possibly mapped to f (nothing mapped there while in storage currently).

 

[Adan]

I want to build Jael'yn her own dungeon and let her be in control inside.
I mean I forgot to set a command word for her collar and then she ended up being a demon bexause I exposed her to Alraune. So I think she has legit gripes with me and I deserve to be punished pretty harsly.

She could also train me troops
oh and Alraune could produce me food

 

[Floofer]

Will there be a way that we can obtain the sacred harlet outfit that we wear while working clients outside of the temple? More generally on this content is there plans for us to be able to become a preist/preistess of this god later down the line?

 

[WolframL]

No idea on the outfit but I very much doubt that the couple of months timespan the game canonically takes place in is enough time for a Champ to go through everything that would be necessary to become a properly ordained temple harlot. Salwah points out that there's a lot of bureaucracy and ritual involved and even if Cait handwaves that for us, there's also a considerable amount of training involved. One assumes that if the Champ did want to settle down Mallachite-style they'd need to at least learn all of that. I dunno, I could maybe see an ending variation along those lines but not something that would happen in the game proper.

And if that doesn't happen, I'll be happy if we just get to pretend we're a temple harlot long enough to have a 'proper' Mallachite slut wedding with Cait, for Champs who want the full experience.

 

[Floofer]

That's disappointing, ever since Cait was first introduced to us I always liked the possibility of joining her religion, consider the sheer volume of content she has and lore surrounding it, plus building the temple and the connection we have to it. I personally dont see why there couldn't be some excuse to have the champion skip much of the process through whatever means can be thought of but as it stands I feel like it is severely wasted potential to have such a fitting faction locked from the player in a hyper sexualized world if the reason is the canon timeline

 

[Tlatchga]

It is entirely possible that there will be a soulbind option for each of the 7 main gods, and if so Mallach's might make us something like his chosen, granting us some form of role in the church. No idea what his soulbound perma-TF would be though.

Different playthrough and realized the relevant information is listed in the quest heading. Assuming it will be this way for future important bits too, so this one is probably already implemented, just not located where I expected haha.

This is what I've been thinking about as well, maybe the crest thingy that Cait and the others have that prevent pregnancy? Cause they aren't a single race so I dont see something like the kitsune. If the only way of joining Cait's religion is through the soulbind I'm going to have to have an aneurysm deciding between being a kitsune or a Mallach follower

We're only getting Keros (kitsune), Lumia (valkyrie) and Nareva (Astrida salamander a.k.a. gothmander). WolframL can provide links, as they've answered this question multiple times already.

 

[Floofer]

I really liked the idea of Soulbinding with all seven gods so only being able to do it with three is perhaps the biggest disappointment I've had with the development choices for this game. Sucks too because it would been a great way to incorporate the lore into the setting, given how much quality content the kitsune have with Keros and the champion's interactions with Keros so only getting that two more times really blows

 

[WolframL]

WolframL can provide links, as they've answered this question multiple times already.

Here's Savin pointing out that not all of the Seven are relevant to the story and specifically pointing out why several of them wouldn't be offering soulbinding anyways. And here's a newer post from Alypia providing an even more explicit answer that only the three we already know of are going to happen and Sorra at least doesn't do soulbinding.

 

[CitrusWolf]

the only of the seven I'd trust my champs soul to is Nareva for reasons

Maybe I just dont know enough but Keros seems very irrelevant to the story despite the sheer amount of content involved in the den. Mallach confirmed to not being available is quite a boner killer

What does Alypia mean about the other gods not available in this game? Is this setting going to be used for some unknown future game?

 

[WolframL]

Creating two separate posts to respond to the exact same comment is just bad form... instead it's generally the Done Thing to respond to everything in one. Like this:

Maybe I just dont know enough but Keros seems very irrelevant to the story despite the sheer amount of content involved in the den.

While the floofs have a huge amount of content that kind of exists in isolation, they have a quite important impact on the setting as a whole. Consider for example the druids mentioning that they're losing ground to the kitsune who have over the generations managed to convince the local spirits that they belong. This ties into the whole boer'alvar plot because that in turn drives the druids to seek reunification with their Lumian-majority brethren, which colors everything to do with their story from the Palace of Ice dungeon onwards. Even if you don't do any engaging with kitsune content, they matter. There is also the whole trio of Carmen, Evergreen and Komari which has been set up if not fully realized yet. Once you do engage the kitsune content in more depth, you have an entire plotline based around Kinu being born and the implications of her semi-divine lineage, which affects the status of the colony vis a vis Kitsuhon, sets up the entire plotline of KinuQuest and is directly connected to Keros. Plus given the sheer volume of kitsune content, Keros (the one among the Seven who has the most personal interaction with their chosen people) has an indirect influence over a whole lot of things.

What does Alypia mean about the other gods not available in this game? Is this setting going to be used for some unknown future game?

There's nothing stopping the team from making another game in the same setting, no. In fact it would be pretty surprising if they didn't considering the amount of lore that's been written for places that we know are outside the scope of this game. That said, you shouldn't take the possibility of a future game in the setting as a guarantee that it would include soulbinding for all of the remaining members of the pantheon.

 

[NightmarishToast]

More tease dmg based weapons would be nice

 

[AceofSpades]

Will there be a way that we can obtain the sacred harlet outfit that we wear while working clients outside of the temple?

Actually, that could be a really cool Charmer-focused armor. Since Tira's armor is probably the best mage armor (until the Great Rebalancing), it would be pretty cool to see some deity gear that specifically caters to specific builds/playstyles. Though as I'm typing this there already a few pieces of gear tied to the rest of the pantheon so we probably won't get matching armor too.

 

[IraMorti]

I think it would be cool to get some half-breed options for the races that don't breed true in character creation. At least a Half-Lupine option! Choosing Lupine could give an extra option asking are you a full Lupine or half human? Etc.

as much as I'd personally like this, the character creation is remaining as it is with no changes ever
