Defenders of the Light 0.58 (SD Reforged Update)

[Darkness.Sansoyat]

First of all, Thank you for uploading this campaign is very attractive for the Lore ^^

You can see that you have made an effort to make the mechanics of the game different, being honest with myself I have played on this page maps that I liked their systems of items, skills and even level escalations,

in this case, having played the act I the best battles of this campaign has been the Final Boss, some unique that I will mention for fear of "spoilers" in a way reminded me of WoW for the many times I decide to go from here, to there in search of improving my items, completing Quest etc ... But even I liked them so ^^ I say that PLEASE if it is in your power to complete Act II and III is also quite fun to play I hope! (considering also that this is inspired by the durotar foundation campaign, this campaign has more history, more maps, more content and of course more ITEMS! For my part I recommend it and I feel it because of my bad English I have to improve it ;c )

@ThinhHo i loved this campaign and story..
any idea when 2nd part will release ?

 

[KlaxonRT]

When doing the sheep side quest in the city, it became impossible after a point so I would spam pause on and off to find the correct sheep. In doing so I would save after every correct guess. When I got to 97 guesses however, the sheep do not change back into white sheep and the minigame becomes impossible to finish. This disallowed me from playing the rest of the campaign because the triggers for accepting quests were deactivated due to my being in the sheep quest still. If there were no more prizes after 50 correct guesses I think you should stop the minigame to prevent this from happening, or at least add a maximum timer for the guess so that if a similar bug occurs it will reset itself.

- In the map before the last map (arthas forces vs undead) it hppened to me, that I stopped getting any gold from kills or whatsoever (I think the last gold I got was some from the vault-with-gate at the map).

I have this problem too. After one of the update, this problem started to emerge. There's no programming option for me to disable or enable gold dropping from the enemy units. This, I believe, is a bug of the engine and I can't fix it

- I was unable to find a mask of silence (there are 2 guys near dark woods, that would craft things for you, for one I found it, for the second one nope.)

Mask of Silence is and Item Drop from the Shade Firecaller in Dark Woods.

- I was unable to see a statue moving at midnight

He's referring to the statue in the Dark Woods actually. You won't be able to see it moving. However, coming back to it after a while and you will see that it'd face another direction.

- Item system - man, the design decision with minus stats is soo bad. I mean, being a mathematician - to maximize my options in game AND power, it is not a good idea to use items with minus stats. It could work if the inventory would be bigger and people could balance things, but I wanted ALL stats maximized (for example also because str heroes need mana to cast)
The only thing with minus stats I have used was the mana regen -400MP incense, which is hackable, because if you uneuip before casting and then equip again it makes your spells cost so low
... So I was pretty happy with only plus items.

Some people also talk about the item system. I'm aware of the problem. The item system is inspired from the game Darkest Dungeon with positive and negative stats for every item. This opens up more variety for items in the future as well as not making your heroes too powerful with items. If you maximize your heroes in the main campaign, they are usually x2 stronger. In this campaign, it's only about x1.2. I'm also aware that item slot, inventory is a problem for this campaign. Implementing more complicated systems of items in this campaign is not viable in the past, due to the complex triggers of each map that may clash with the system and cause some bugs. In Darkest Dungeon, the item inventory is nearly unlimited, so you have more choices to choose the best item compositions for your heroes. It's not possible in this campaign in the moment. However, I've found a solution for Act II. You'll have more options browsing through items in Act II.

in this case, having played the act I the best battles of this campaign has been the Final Boss, some unique that I will mention for fear of "spoilers" in a way reminded me of WoW for the many times I decide to go from here, to there in search of improving my items, completing Quest etc ... But even I liked them so ^^ I say that PLEASE if it is in your power to complete Act II and III is also quite fun to play I hope!

For my part I recommend it and I feel it because of my bad English I have to improve it ;c )

Thank you so much. I'm glad to read this from you. More history, more maps, more content and more items, those were actually what I wanted to create while making this campaign

@ThinhHo i loved this campaign and story..
any idea when 2nd part will release ?

Thank you @rahul12. I'm working on Act II at the moment. However, there are still a lot that need to get done. I can't tell when Act II would be completed.

When doing the sheep side quest in the city, it became impossible after a point so I would spam pause on and off to find the correct sheep. In doing so I would save after every correct guess. When I got to 97 guesses however, the sheep do not change back into white sheep and the minigame becomes impossible to finish. This disallowed me from playing the rest of the campaign because the triggers for accepting quests were deactivated due to my being in the sheep quest still. If there were no more prizes after 50 correct guesses I think you should stop the minigame to prevent this from happening, or at least add a maximum timer for the guess so that if a similar bug occurs it will reset itself.

Reading this baffled me. I never thought you can go up to 97 guesses, that's why I never thought what would happen when you reach that level. As most of players here can tell, reaching 97 guesses in this mini-game is not humanly possible. One of my human friends played this for the first time and he got 40. It's very clever for you to do what you did, exploiting the game in a great way. On my part, I still want to see what the highest amount of correct guesses players can get, that's why I never put a cap on this minigame. On the other hand, after reading your post, I'm wondering if I really should put a cap on the system to prevent the game from crashing like this.

Anyway, I'd encourage you to finish the campaign if you can. There are a lot from this campaign that you may love and I'd love to see you finishing it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello everyone, I've working on Act II again from the last two weeks. The intro cinematic is done, and it's beautiful (Muawhahahaha). There are still many things that need to put in place. I also thought of creating intro cover pictures for Act I and Act II. When the first maps of the Acts initialize, those pictures would show up. However, the pictures turned out to be very blurry, thus ugly when they appears on the your screen. So I decided to discard that idea. Here is how the intro picture for Act II looked like.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's it, guys!

Happy New Year!

 

[UkyoKuonji]

Bug or not idk. But please ( my grammar is bad no need to judge it )

As far as I playing

1. Game always crash... Problem stucking in pandaren Chen fight.... And the timer very long when they talk to each other and CRASH again if you skip it.. It was very ez pz to kill pandaren but it regenerate to full hp until the game CRASHHHHHHHHHHH again

2. Having hard time in Lonely Island I wonder if Buri was minion or hero. I know he accompany Adias but why Buri cant trigger someone quest/task/mission I mean do we always need Adias to get there... Im stuck because I have no idea how to go inner gate since only ADIAS can trigger the Rune stone ( need hero to stand and active the gate).. Im stucking in Lonely Island and decided to continue main quest and solve the optional later.. WHICH MADE ME GOT PROBLEM no.(1)

3. Too many valueable items... Can you please improve the map where the player can upgrade the stash? And available exactly all maps.. I love to collect many type of item.. Idc if it trash or not as long it is not cosumeable.. I didnt expect there would be mAnY gReAt iTemS there and when Buri left me alone at the arena im so sad that no one carry other item and I have to sacrifce some item to buy clock flame and flame strike staff

I still have other maps to start with but seeing Defenders of the Light attract me playing this map first because I love to be with the alliance and paladin about Light and Justice ( uther favourite character).. You deserved 5 star and would recommend you fix all bugs or glitch first before going to Act 2.. For me this is the first map that very huge than Bonus Campaign Rexxar.. You done well and I enjoy...but the bad thing is this game need to be patience and requires a lot of days complete it. I expect more from you... Good Luck !!!

PS:Umm is not Venkolm and the messenger is map tester.. Please explain to me why they become bandit?

 

[ThinhHo]

Hi UkyoKuonji, thank you for pointing out the bugs. This campaign is not optimized for version 1.30 and above. There have been a lot of bugs in that version. You have to play the game with a version lower than 1.29.

2. Having hard time in Lonely Island I wonder if Buri was minion or hero. I know he accompany Adias but why Buri cant trigger someone quest/task/mission I mean do we always need Adias to get there... Im stuck because I have no idea how to go inner gate since only ADIAS can trigger the Rune stone ( need hero to stand and active the gate).. Im stucking in Lonely Island and decided to continue main quest and solve the optional later.. WHICH MADE ME GOT PROBLEM no.(1)

Buri was added later into the game so I forgot to set him as a quest activator in some places like Lonely Island. That can be fixed in future updates. Just so you know, Lonely Island was designed for at least 3 heroes. You cannot finish the map with only 2 heroes. Or that was what I thought. How far did you get into Lonely Island, if you don't mind me asking?

3. Too many valueable items... Can you please improve the map where the player can upgrade the stash? And available exactly all maps.. I love to collect many type of item.. Idc if it trash or not as long it is not cosumeable.. I didnt expect there would be mAnY gReAt iTemS there and when Buri left me alone at the arena im so sad that no one carry other item and I have to sacrifce some item to buy clock flame and flame strike staff

The lack of item storage has been the biggest issue of this campaign. I'm fully aware of that. Creating a bigger storage system would highly destabilize the campaign which causes more crashes. For Lonely Island, I'll put the stash in the center of the map so that players won't have to carry the items all the way back. Also it would be easier for players to manage and collect items in Act II.

PS:Umm is not Venkolm and the messenger is map tester.. Please explain to me why they become bandit?

Oh, they are just references signifying that Venkolm and The Messenger have contributed to the creation of this campaign.

 

[Ether]

Good intelligently made game. But I keep being lost in the maps.

Spoiler

Wait what... Isnt BURI was dead? Wait dont tell me the 3 hero dont spoil it... I saw the cinematic that Buri was killed when he was return to his home... Well it is good to see Chen as new hero to help me..Its sad that Chen didnt have new skill because I love pandaren...The game story is great but I encountered bug in Darok(Shaman) told his clan and the raid in the ship.. Its said the file is corrupted and the game CRASH again and again..
That it for now...

Ohhh I see.. Is it possible that Act II hero no need stash anymore but instead got a pocket as their storage items????


Im not good at quoting message but I already tried my best... Im new member here

 

[ThinhHo]

Hi @UkyoKuonji, please put your first passage into Spoiler brackets so that other won't be spoiled by the story. You should be able to find the code you need in here: BB Codes | HIVE

I encountered bug in Darok(Shaman) told his clan and the raid in the ship.. Its said the file is corrupted and the game CRASH again and again..

You were stuck due to the crash in Edenvale Dungeon. How did you get here then? Did the game stop crashing? The crash you're experiencing have also been reported by many people who played the campaign in version 1.30

Is it possible that Act II hero no need stash anymore but instead got a pocket as their storage items????

Definitely not possible. The item system would still be the same. However, with the map, shop and item layout in Act II, it would be easier for players to manage their items.

Also, check your inbox please.

Spoiler

I stop playing warcraft for a few hours refresh my computer several times and play again..I think the game crashes because too many spell casted when fighting chen thats cause the game to lag then crash.. Fortunately I can quickly defeated chen and skip all the cinematic

Spoiler: Darok

I manage to continue the main stories..I also manage to play it by saving the game after skip all cinematic ...... Kill the misunderstood blademaster.. Darok told his story about undead raid their ship.....OO yea can you please check file/model loedaran4.wcx IF I REMEMBER because some message pop up after the game crash and told me (white colour) is corrupted.... Mind if I play the story to check again what are the corrupted file? After have Darok as my new assistant I decide to complete some side story on other maps

Spoiler

Welp the game is side story kind of sad...I found buri corpse.. its sad..And also the acolyte very sad...

 

[DanteZBuB]

Ive just started playing the campaign and its quite enjoyable....Altho Ive seen a "Bug" in lonely island where u feed phoneix eggs to statues...basically i survived all 8 mins and at the end all i get is (Lesser invul pot , some undead rod to summon skele , lesser mana pot etc.) i even tried saving at 10 seconds b4 the mini game ends and loaded around 10-15 times anddd not 1 "Rare Drop out of 3".
other than that its all good
Edit: Also in the Glowing cave at the end there is a Door where u can simply summon a Shadow Wolf and use staff of teleportation to teleport adias through and reach the circle of power to fight the stone boss xD.
Edit 2 : Also used same trick to get into Abyss in that shimmer wood map summoned a wolf and ported darak thro XDDDDDDDD.ill prolly bug the game lmao (Instead of that Teleport item why not make Teleporting thingies like one back in Final fantasy rpg)

 

[patrick deschamps]

to everyone here , all those campaign, amazzzing! being hobbled right now i had some time to load and play some, including this one. good job folks.

edenvale dungeon, im stuck.
whats the order of doing things to get out of there? i couldnt destroy the two generators thats are behind the 2 door key in solo play.
a spoiler of what to do would be appreciated here. (im obviously missing an obvious thing) and id like to see the rest of the campaign without using cheats. im stuck at either the memory game or the door thats locked near the start, lower right and leads to another teleport, (bottom right corner of the map.

 

[ThinhHo]

im stuck at either the memory game or the door thats locked near the start

This puzzle requires you to come back to it later when you have more resources to solve it. You will know eventually.

im stuck at either the memory game

If you cannot see the particle effects on the memory circles, your game animation may have been bugged out. Make sure to restart your computer (not turn of and turn it on) for the animation to work.
If buggy animation is not the case, you just need to memorize the order of the lit circles. After they are done lighting up, use your mouse to click on them following the memorized order.
Please ask if you have any other questions.
I really appreciate that you play through the campaign without using cheats.

That's smart exploit from the game. I have no complain with it. I don't think there's a way to fix it though. Did you finish the campaign? How did you enjoy it?
By the way, I don't play Final fantasy rpg so I don't really understand what you talked about.

 

[patrick deschamps]

got it, off to the barrows now ty!

SMALL UPDATE (v0.34)

Hi everyone,

It's been a while since the last update of this campaign. If fact, there was not much to update anyway. I went back to all of the comments, took notes and implemented some bug fixes in this update. There are no major changes however. If you played the campaign before, I don't think you should play it again.
Here are the 2 "biggest" changes in this update:

- Level Cap System Revamp

The level cap system was implemented in the last update with the hope to closing the gap of players who are too high and too low levels for the later Act. In the previous system, heroes only receive 25% of the experience received normally after Adias reaches level 22. In this update, the experience reduction kicks in after the level sum of all heroes reaches 66.

- Chen has a new ability: Berserk

This Berserk ability is similar to the original Berserk of the game. Drunken Brawler only has a maximum of 8 levels while all other abilities have 15 levels. I wanted to extend the Drunken Brawler ability but it's not possible. Therefore, Berserk was added in to fill that gap. It has 7 levels, can be learned from level 18.

Here’s the full list of changes for this update:

v0.34 April 12th 2019

General Changes/Fixes
- Revamped Level Cap system
- Map1 Removed awkward long pause in cinematic
- Map2 Fixed Buri can't activate quests
- Map3 Ancient Sasquatch now drops Tome of Agility instead of Tome of Knowledge
- Map4A Now can skip long cinematic
- Map9 Fixed Buri not activate some minigames
- Map11 Removed awkward long pause in cinematic
- Map11 Added some more rewards into Memory Circles minigame
- Map14 Fixed Buri can't activate contraptions
- Map14 Makrura Abomination's ability now works on Buri
- Map23 Now can skip long cinematic
- MapC1 Added Spiky Plate, Tenerious Armor and Noxious Blade to Item Shop

Unit Changes/Fixes
- Hero Chen Earth's Spell Immunity is replaced with Hardened Skin with IgnoredDmg: 12/22/30
- Hero Chen now has a new ability Bererk - boosting attack speed but Chen takes more damage
- Hero Chen Drunken Brawler now only has 8 levels

Item Changes/Fixes
- Item Frozen Core now reduces wearer armor by 10

------------------------------------------------

The development of Act II is running quite smoothly. I can't wait for you guys to play through it. If everything goes according to plan, the campaign can be released in the first two quarters of next year.
Here's the list of important characters, may be unimportant or even non-existent in Act II. If you haven't played through Act I, please don't open this.

Character Spoilers

 

[Venkolm]

Need help for Act II?

 

[ThinhHo]

Need help for Act II?

If you're referring to testing, Act II is not eligible for testing yet.
Currently I'm working with @The_Messenger. He works on the dialogues of the campaign while I put them into the game.
While some parts are playable, they are disconnected. There are many things that still need to be worked on.

Once you activate the mission, weeds (which look like bushes) spawn randomly on the streets of Edenvale City.

The game crashes in the Edenvale Dungeons when then cinematic about Chen and Adias about to fight ends, regardless if i skip it or not. Playing on patch 1.30.4 btw

 

[ThinhHo]

The game crashes in the Edenvale Dungeons when then cinematic about Chen and Adias about to fight ends, regardless if i skip it or not. Playing on patch 1.30.4 btw

This is caused by the patch. However, somebody has solved this problem before. It's @UkyoKuonji who has done it. This was what he said about how he got through the crash. This is also the how he got to the other crashes I believe:

I stop playing warcraft for a few hours refresh my computer several times and play again..I think the game crashes because too many spell casted when fighting chen thats cause the game to lag then crash.. Fortunately I can quickly defeated chen and skip all the cinematic

 

[Dale218]

Nothing triggers me like grammar mistakes. It literally takes a native english speaker with a 10th grade understanding of our language to correct this. It's so annoying to see this and you have them AS SOON AS YOU START THE CAMPAIGN.

This campaiign is amazing.

 

[The Vulture]

very good campaign you should do more

 

[mofuca]

The Campaign is Awesome ! Looking forward to to the next ACT ThinhHo.

 

[sunabokori]

In your description you complain about Founding of Durotar was short for your taste,i dunno but i have the impression that your act 1 is not that longer,i remember the day when i entered the final battle map,despite the no-return warning i was expecting it to be much longer.I Hope the Act 2 will be that much.

I Entirely played the Act 1 with the patch 1.26 worked well, any hope the Act 2 will also be playable with that patch ?????????

forgive me but blizzard patching policy ban some countries of the world from getting access to their servers in orders to upgrade to those scary 1.30 or more

 

[Umar786]

Someone kindly guide where to exactly find this dark totem to enter dark wood, it's been a long time searching but I cannot find it

 

[Adrian0]

Can t find any crabs lol
Now I remember why I stoped playing this map.

 

[deepstrasz]

Make sure to turn off iseedeadpeople cheat as the crabs wont respawn if its active. Go along the coast and farm the crabs there

 

[Blasterixx]

Just a quick thing to say, this campaign like every other old maps/campaigns seems to have been hugely affected by the last patches, it basically crashes all the time after every cutscene after you played a mini-game in that current mission, because of that the campaign is unplayable.
I played it on hard and on the last patch -->

 

[ThinhHo]

Hello everyone,
I haven't caught up with what happened on HIVE for quite some time. In the past 3 months, I focused on my summer internship and gave pause to any other projects that I have, including the development of this campaign so that I could get the best result out of my summer internship. So I haven't been on HIVE for a while. I just got back yesterday and will start working on DOTL again from Monday.

This campaiign is amazing.

very good campaign you should do more

The Campaign is Awesome ! Looking forward to to the next ACT ThinhHo.

Act II is in the work. The testing period starts in approximately the end of September and October.

In your description you complain about Founding of Durotar was short for your taste,i dunno but i have the impression that your act 1 is not that longer,i remember the day when i entered the final battle map,despite the no-return warning i was expecting it to be much longer.I Hope the Act 2 will be that much.

When I compared the length of DOTL to the length of The Founding of Durotar (tFoD), I was comparing theirs Act. If you compare Act I to the entire campaign of tFoD, yes DOTL Act I is shorter. But Act I of DOTL is way longer than Act I of tFoD. tFoD only has 6 maps in Act I while DOTL has roughly about 15 maps.

I Entirely played the Act 1 with the patch 1.26 worked well, any hope the Act 2 will also be playable with that patch ?????????

This campaign was designed to work well with patch 1.26, patch 1.27. If you play this campaign on any of those patches, you're good.
Patch 1.30 and above basically breaks the campaign at this point.
To solve this problem, I'm thinking of rebuilding the campaign in the new patch (1.30+) after completing Act II. It will take some time but people with the new patch will have the chance to play it.

 

[Tom Amder]

It good to have you back ThinhHo.

 

[ThinhHo]

Hi everyone,

The campaign jumped to the first page again. However, this is not an update. I made no change to the campaign file itself, only the credits in the description was updated.

There are still some good news.

Good News 1
I just finished my newest test run 30 minutes ago and this is the first time I successfully run through all of the main quests without any bugs. All of the main quests and main story elements are done. The campaign severely lacks optional quests and events at the moment but that is something that will be added over time.
Good News 2
I'm in need of testers, about 2 or 3. I'll start sending the campaign out for testing in about one week.

P/S - The campaign works perfectly on version 1.27 and may crash on 1.30. If you have the lower version and interested in helping me with testing, please PM me. If you have v1.30+ and interested in testing, I'd like to see where and how often the campaign crashes with the new version of the game. The is a gamble on your end if you have the higher version of the game and want to test. But doing so also helps me fix some bugs and see the potential incompatibility of the campaign and the new game version.

=================================================

This was the start of the review i wanted to write for the map, but i stopped writing it after i got crashes with the panda cutscene in the dungeon mission, beeing unable to progress the campaign i just gave up on it, i hope it will help u a bit. (i played on the latest patch 1.31+)

Spoiler

~~Negatives/Bugs~~


- Vicar the footman's quest with the fountin doesn't seem to work, i found the fountin and returned to him but with no success, he didn't say anything.

- Creeps spawning on bad unwalkable terrain, so far i saw: 1 murloc and 1 ghoul doing that.


- A weird text messege appeared while i was walking in the undead area, the messege was "Here it come" (from one of the footman in the north east corner town).

!-! After i took the quest from Musko in the capital i got fatal error !-! , after multiple tries and tests i managed to not get a fatal error, the problem was the sheep mini-game, there are 3 problems with it:

1. By playing the mini game even once and going to take the quest from Musko after, you will 100% get error.

2. You can cheat the game by clicking multiple times (super fast) on the correct sheep getting lots of points and wining the quest only from a few rounds rounds.

3. The green color that is supposed to show the correct sheep is waay too faded and really hard to see! And talking about the colors, Green and red are really bad colors since not only green is a hard color to see, but by putting red and green together you actually handicap lots of people that have an eye disease called "red-green color blindness" (which is pretty common), so i suggest changing the colors to: black , blue , orange , purple , grey , brown , magenta, etc.

- Not sure this is intended but u can actually help one of your heroes with spells and summons from the outside of the arena when they fight 1 v 1 the creeps for the "Unit testing system optional quest".


- So after exploring a bit of the capital map i noticed that after playing any of the mini-games of the villagers you will 100% get a fatal error after you finish any cutscene.

- Before entering the castle there are 2 shiny zones. the one from the left is not working.


- Not sure is intended or not but Deep sea scepter stopped working while i was in the dungeon of the castle.

- And another fatal error, this time after the cutscene with the panda hero at the end of the dungeon mission.



~~Positives~~

- I love the way trees fall down to create shortcuts after a quest/zone is completed/discovered.

- I liked the riddles



~~Funny~~

- Those colossal sea turtles scared the shit out of me when i was sailing on the water with the boat.

- That cheeky blademaster with salves of healing and wind walk.



~~Questions~~

- Does the memory test go for eternity? i ended up with round 16 and gave up.

An awesome campaign! Two questions regarding to shimmering coast:
1. There is some trace of blood on an island in the center of the map, yet I wasn't able to find anything nearby even with seer staff. Is there a trigger or just some decorations?
2. Is there a way to destroy the trees? Brui's Flame Strike doesn't work the way Melee maps do. I was attacked by a hydra and troll behind the trees.

So i reached the task to face pandarian brewmasta in the end of the dangeon the game crushed 3 consecutive times in different occassions (1st time before the fight, 2nd time when i picked up the item, 3rd time when transitioning to the next map) I didnt skip cinematic. I didn't encounter a crash issue till that point. Someone else encountered something similar? Error log references an
<Exception.IssueType>Exception
and a lot of other yabadado....
I dont know if that is helpful
I m playing with the latest patch, should i switch to 1.29?
