We’re happy to announce that all of the content for the White Mage prologue has now been completed! The White Mage prologue is the largest of the four that have been completed with two unique towns/villages and two dungeons along with a full complement of party members. Our next step is to balance all of the 4 completed prologues in terms of difficulty. One of the biggest challenges in balancing the various prologues is the fact that each prologue completed so far has a different number of party members:
1) Gray Mage – Solo
2) Hunter – 2 party members
3) Knight – 3 party members
4) White Mage – 4 party members
The party strength grows non-linearly as party members are added and therefore the enemy strengths must be carefully tuned in each prologue to make sure that they are appropriately challenging. Although the prologues are at the beginning of the game, we still want to set a standard for difficulty. This means you can’t simply waltz into the first dungeon unprepared on “Hard” difficulty and expect to survive.
In parallel with these rebalancing efforts, we’re continuing to refine and refactor our important menus such as the “Skill Use” and “Item” menus. We hope to have the newly redesigned menus to show you soon.
