" What if I still want to Bounty Hunt with a group?"ĭo it. This means that it's perfectly possible for a player to just throw themselves at (some) fights over and over again until they eventually win, assuming that you're not just wiping in the first five seconds every time.Īlso, since all Bounties are actually worth something again - either Source Marks/other Currencies, Reward Boxes, or (frequently) both - there's usually someone else in a zone in case you run into something that you simply can't beat by yourself. However, there is one bright side - certain Bounties do not regenerate quite as quickly while out of combat any more. This means that the fight is going to be a lot more level than it was two months ago - which makes understanding the mechanics of each Bounty a lot more important now. " Are there any big changes to Bounties?"Īs mentioned above: since the stat clamp is universal to all open-world content as well as instanced content there are a lot of situations where there is no longer a gigantic stat difference between you and a potential target. The sheer amount of these Feats means that it's worth a sizeable amount of SP to complete them all - in Doomed Metropolis alone, there are 5 Feats for beating Doomsday (a 10, 10, 25, 25, and 50 Point Feat) and 3 for Henshaw and Bizzaro (a 10, 10, and 25) - 190 Feat Points you finish literally any other Feat in Doomed Metropolis (of which there are many) and it's 2 SP that you can get in about six hours worth of actual grinding. " What kinds of Feats are we talking about?"īounty Feats start waaaaay back in Episode 2: Lightning Strikes and mostly follow very similar formulae, being either "Kill All These Guys Once" (Combined Feat) or "Kill This Guy X Times" (Counter Feat) sometimes both. This is ESPECIALLY true now, since everything has a Source Mark reward again. Sometimes you're the only one in an area, and you want that Bounty or Feat.This is in addition to the Reward Boxes, other Currencies, and of course, Feats. All open-world Bounties in game have some form of Source Mark reward, some (most) up to 8 Marks a pop.It's an excellent place to gain awareness of Boss-level combat mechanics outside of a Alert or Raid.It's a good place to see how your character is performing and test changes made based on that observation.There are numerous Feats tied to Bounty progression a lot of these Feats are in older content, some of which contains less populated phases.On the other side of that coin: since DCUO is famous for its lack of documentation and tutorials, our community is usually responsible for picking up the slack there. 8 Source Marks for 4-8 minutes of invested solo time is the best turn-around in the game you can get by yourself. Additionally, it is quite profitable since everything now drops Source Marks again, in addition to the Loot boxes. Since a lot of Bounties are actually challenging again, I thought it would be a good time to revisit the process and document the results.Ĭontrary to some initial concerns, the practice of Solo Bounty Hunting is still very much a possibility. This has also changed Bounty Hunting, because now you can't just drive a 346 CR character into Doomed Metropolis and beat Doomsday by farting at him. There have been numerous changes during House of Legends - one of the major changes was to open-world content, specifically being that open-world areas now have a stat clamp applied similar to the instanced content covered by their particular Tier group.
