Volcanic eruption frequency. Please decrease

  • The time between eruptions is way to frequent. I have like what, 2-3 minuts between each eruption? thats hardly enough time to do anything. Rare, please considering to increase the minimum time between them.

    ps. I'm writing this while waiting for it to become day because i couldn't kill the shadow skeletons during the day because eruptions wasted 90% of the daylight and if that stupid volcano erupts and sinks my ship because i couldn't get back to it in time, i don't want to spawn on the other side of the friggin map.

    Oh you think it's bad now? * laughs in Forsaken Shores original release month *

    It is okay where it is now. It has already been nerfed.

    Also just a quick hint: If you notice earth quakes, take caution and head back to your ship and wait until the coast is clear. It may erupt or it may not. There's plenty of opportunity to get out unscathed.

  • @comrade-fluffs I think the frequency eruption is just fine - what needs to be changed is how long eruptions last. Having the volcano go off while you're on the island is a test of skill -- can you get back to the ship in time? Can you sail away without taking damage? Or even, can you tank through the damage and stay alive?

    Seeing how long you can sit offshore/out-of-range and wait tests nothing. That time waiting needs to be reduced imo.

  • @vorondil1 at this rate it more feels like a test of patience
    (unrelated sidenote: are flower skeletons inmune to canonballs? i ahve shot all my cannonballs at a flwoercaptain, he gets tossed around but refuses to die)

  • @comrade-fluffs aye, the salad skellies as I like to call them take reduced (half?) damage from explosives like guns and cannons, and they regenerate health while in the water. Your better bet is to push 'em on land and finish it up close and personal with a cutlass :)

  • @vorondil1 surely 40 cannonballs should've been enough...
    UGH, gues i'l have to risk my ship getting sunk by tehse ungodly eruptions. I've been at this island for over an hour now for a task that takes maybe 20 minuts under normal circumstances

  • @comrade-fluffs aye - just go for it, and get back on your ship the moment there's an earthquake. have the anchor and sails up so you can start sailing away at the drop of a hat if the earthquake does turn into an eruption. Good luck!

  • **YESSSSSS, PLEASE! **

    I didn't even completed half of the commendations on that side because of that. It's just too much. Too much waiting for nothing! It is cool they added volcanoes but the waiting time is just ridiculous. Sometimes, you don't even have time to get back to the island before it starts again.

    I agree 100%! I love the challenge, I just wish the eruptions were shorter.

  • A) the better reward of the Roar is due to the extreme conditions. Get used to it or head back to kiddie land.

    B) shadow skeletons are easier at night. Stun them with your lantern then kill. Repeat as necessary.

  • @comrade-fluffs
    You have way more time than 2-3 minutes between eruptions. You feel it’s a short time compared to the calmness of the other areas due to no Enviromental engagements in those areas but it has already been said that it has been nerfed and it’s fine for the casual player now.

    Just sword-kill salads, they're easy. No need to spend a boatload of cannonballs on them
