TowerBorne’s mastery update deepens a distinctive Brawler experience

A group, a landslide sending – tower It comes to the game’s inspection next week, and the Xbox Series X Conscience invites | S, Windows PC, Xbox Cloud and Game to the BelFry alongside Steam Player.

tower It gets a big update, which enhances its innovative and restarting vision LOOTER BARWLER expertise. This official expansion via platforms deepens and extends the way of playing, opening a richer looting, additional skills, and augmented customization. As Xbox Play anywhere, your progress, friends and friends coincided smoothly between Xbox and PC. Although this is not the launch of the official game 1.0 – for the first time tower On Xbox, Couch Co-OP will only be on the console.

This update offers skills trees for each of the four “chapters” tower. Previously, the types of game chapters revolve around the four types of weapons, which players can raise with their progress. Now, each separating a dedicated skill tree makes making more progress, deeper play, and the ability to formulate your style effectively and efficiently.

To give a deeper look at this new system, we talked to ISAAC Torres, the main fighting designer, and Chris Mandel, the great systems designer, who participated in how to add the separation mastery, and how early access support helped in the shape tower For best, only in time to launch it to inspect the Xbox game.

New skill trees for each chapter

towerThe fighting is divided into four distinct chapters, which are still defined primarily with the type of their weapon. Sentinel is a classic sword and a shield that provides a mixture of offensive and defensive play. Pyroclast packs punch with great Warclub, which also deals with fire damage. Rockbreaker comes with a group of giant gloves that can give up the destroyed fighting strokes, and Shadowstriker is a fast and graceful category practicing sharp daggers.

New skill trees are now here to enhance these basic models in every imagined way. By moving from level 1 along the way to the 50 level, the tree calls for progress and rewards at each stage of the game, canceling new moves, additional combat skills, ways to launch smart groups, and even privileges that allow you to tend to support the role of the team.

Inside each tree, you will be able to open and equip different light concentration skills, heavy concentration skills, and specific weapons mechanics that significantly change what your attacks can do. It is a tremendous change, which is incredibly normal according to Mandal.

“The decision to add the mastery of the separation with the progress of progress for a long time,” says Mandeel.

The ideal construction

Adding skill trees open a much larger ingenuity in how to form a certain category, which in turn means more contrast between many players who use the same weapon. Take a look at the goalkeeper category, for example, one person can focus heavily on offensive skills that cause damage over time, while the other may tend to shield skills and support. It makes the most interesting game -based game, and this means that everyone can really choose the chapter they want more, rather than trying to guarantee one of each balanced team.

If we look at one step forward, many skills are designed in each category tree to synergy with each other to create “structures”. One of the examples of the Torres and Mandell show is Sentinel “Bleed Build”, which is done by combining skills that allow bleeding over time with the privileges of inflating this damage in different ways.

The maximum freedom, minimum friction

TowerBorne is designed to accommodate experimentation and encourage mixing game styles-when you are not in fighting, you can switch equipment, skills and classrooms easily through a user interface that is always accessible. Unlike a lot of Arpgs where “Respec” is a great commitment often costs time and/or currency, tower He made experiments without friction as possible. Once you reach a certain level and unlock a skill, you can equip it and not treat it immediately (when you are not in the fight), to mix and match the skills or try something different without the need to rebuild your entire personality.

“We don’t want to build the construction exhausted for the player,” says Mandeel. “We want you to be able to mix, match, modify and adapt your building as you go.”

This means that you can assemble a building on your favorite class and try it on a mission without a great commitment to time, and if not completely true, then discuss it as you want. There are a lot of different groups and construction that must be tried, some of them hidden deeper than others, and the ease of construction encourages you to explore the largest number you want.

Development fed by reactions

When Stoic was launched at Early Access on Steam in September, the players call for participation from the first day with the founder’s package, the goal was to build a modest and self -chosen base and participate in eager to help forming the best possible experience. Many of these changes, including mastery of the separation, have been on the team’s long minds, but they are really support from the establishment of Acess that enhances how to do what to do.

“I was already working on things related to mastering the separation at that time, and I ended up injecting an element of mastery of separation to Sentinel to find out how society’s reaction to this was,” Torres participated. “Their notes enabled me to take this choice sooner.”

Since the first day, the team felt that society was on the pulse of what tower It aims to be. The Stoic team goes out of interest to players’ observations, including clearly distinctive effects on the upcoming big update. With this support, they are closer to the game imaging, and this is just a start.

“Even reading our dispute,,, Redit, or watching YouTube videos help enable the team in several ways because we may already think about adding something, and gives us an opportunity to escalate things if we know that society loves the idea as well,” Torres said.

tower It is launched in the game inspection at Xbox Series X | S and Windows PC, Xbox Cloud and Xbox Game Pass on April 29. pre- now.
