Agree with pop, the tendency of long term games like this is to get more user player friendly and easier, which pacifies you in the short term but just ends up making it incredibly monotonous and I think this is a classic example of that, where people can just put less and less effort in and still get similar rewards

So what you're really saying is that the new absorber effects aren't underpowered, you just don't like how you would utilise them? You think anyone's going to use the defence per charisma one?
Blood wars is about making what you believe is the best out of possible options; adapting your game plan to the race/tats/arcana/talismans available, there are always going to be avenues you don't explore (even though the horror expo talisman clearly WILL come in useful)

Yep I think it's inherently understood that there will need to be some balance changes, but it'll be a few months at least before we see talismans being effectively utilised and which are overpowered and which aren't, but ofcourse you must consider the 'price' of talismans, so ones that require more runes should be more powerful.
Also don't forget runes themselves benefit melee nicely with the ignore defence which you can get 3 of.

50% horror in ambush is HUGE for arenas, missing/noncrits are not, either being deliberately myopic for the sake of argument or unintentionally, who knows which

Agreed, just to say to the devs this stuff is amazing! This has absolutely blown apart the previous bloodwars ceiling, great work and thanks a lot to everyone involved in the making of this!

So the level of talisman is equal to the lowest level of the constituent runes. You can only have 3 functional runes at once which is the limiting factor on talismans used. It is free and easy to change around the runes between talismans even after completing a talisman. Runes are upgraded by melding 3 of a lower level rune into the same rune but one level higher, and costing 300/900/2700 points of essence to upgrade.

Yeah i think it should be inherently obvious that some of these will need to be majorly rebalanced, only time will tell what is overpowered in practice though, often times theory and practice don't match up
I don't think absorbers are nerfed though,
You can just use absorption, still get luck, more critical hit chance and stop the enemy getting all these hugely powerful upgrades (although as you wouldn't have the talismans a lot of the time I don't think you'll get the bonuses yourself)
