From 21 comfort to 16 upon lext login...

The title basically. I haven't made any changes to a specific room with 21 comfort, and when I logged in the next day (today), the value dropped to 16.

Tested, and it seems rugs and carpets don't mean individual comfort additions anymore, nor does the darkwood chair do anything next to my stone throne. I assume the brazier gives nothing next to the hearth as well.

Weird, becuase I haven't seen any patch notes describing such comfort system changes since last night. Any thoughts on what happened?

As a game dev you're not supposed to nerf anything, unless there is an exploit being used or something like it. Since there's no exploit here, this was COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY.
Still, I don't really care because I rarely ever use the comfort system past a basic home, and just build multiple homes to maintain comfort.

* Ballista ammo recipes made cheaper
* Mistlands Seeker event tweaked (It will no longer trigger in Meadows, Swamps, Mountains or Ocean. It will no longer spawn Seeker Soldiers and the amount of Seekers & Broods has been rebalanced)
* Seeker AI tweaks (They should now circulate a bit and not be on the player constantly to give them some time to catch their breath)
* Seeker Soldier and Gjall spawn rate tweaked (Was spawning quite frequently earlier. It’s now much similar to Troll spawns in Black Forest)
* Comfort from different carpets no longer stacks
* Gjall will now only shoot 1 projectile at a time instead of 2
* Hare running speed slightly decreased
* Tetra bait uses Fenring trophy instead of Ulv trophy
* Fish in mountain caves will respawn correctly, and small additional lake added
* Tuna also always takes ocean bait since it is in ocean as well

* Mating hens no longer sound like boars

Not sure how to link so ill just copy/paste

Also i am pretty sure that chairs/thrones are in the same category for the comfort buff, same with brazier and the hearth. We only get the one that gives more comfort


Ah awesome, thanks. Couldn't find the detailed notes. Cheers :)

Personally I like to see the skills go brr, no matter how pointless they are, so I regularly return to refill the status. Shame, cause losing 5 minutes from my expedition time will only make the game more monotone, as I have to return home more frequently...

This. I don't like the reduction of rested buff duration either, but having the effect's duration and application calculated in consistent manner is pretty important too, especially for players who want to establish multiple bases, and when new updates with more comfort objects are made available.

Edit: Anyhow, the changes are still on the testing branch. They can easily increase comfort provided by one or two of the new or more rare comfort items so it's easier to get 18 or so comfort.

Nerfing rugs is like the single most pointless and unnecessary thing they could do. Way to punish players who made an effort to diligently furnish their homes.

The non-stacking carpets would make more sense if each tier of carpet had been better than the previous one, but if they are all just one point the need to upgrade is less.

a bug that has been there since the start. at this point it is not a bugfix but a change in mechanics.
