Major update just came out, so I'm relaunching a PVE server for my little discord community.  It's a pretty cool game.

Played at ages ago when it was still in Beta.  Was fun.  Enjoyed building the castle.  But you could tell even back then it was intended to be played with friends as some of the bosses were super tough for a single player.

Definitely not great solo.  I'm not sure if you can change the mode or make the difficulty super easy to make solo possible, but pretty much all pathways to advance your character and build are locked behind the bosses.

Early access, very early on, the game was hard.  That has changed.

I soloed every boss a few months back, I remember Lidia absolutely nuking me to death in 1 shot every time I would run near her on accident during early access.  I killed her at a really low level, very early on.

So it's been changed quite a bit.

Do you still get the fountains for your castle that provide buffs after defeating a boss?

Unsure what that is, not that I've seen?  Each boss is tied to certain unlocks and craftables, so you can advance your questions and build/level.

Last I was played, there were 3 world bosses that you had to defeat.  They were obviously tuned as a group encounter back then.  One that flew, one in a cave and another I could not beat.  Upon defeat you got a recipe to build a fountain in your castle that gave you a powerful buff when clicked on.

I went and looked and apparently, they no longer have that.

You mean the Soul Shards?

They still exist.  They are unique.  The first person on the server to defeat one of those bosses gets the shard.  Of course, servers have the option of altering the config to allow one to drop each time.  On official servers its unique. They are also broadcast who has it and where it is at all times I am fairly certain, allowing people to easily come steal it, or wait for you to die and grab it.

Not much of an issue on a private server but something to think about.

Ok, they are still there.  They just changed how they work.
