The official released a new special issue, briefly introducing the mechanism of Huangmang. In this issue, let’s talk about what the Huangmang mechanism is in my eyes based on this report, preview, and speculation.
There is a very key original sentence in the special issue of Steam Bird News : "An attack with wild or awning nature is another way to effectively defeat the defense of the gap body in addition to the elemental reaction method."
Therefore, for veteran players, it is nothing more than an additional shield-breaking technique, which seems to have little impact. On the contrary, Huangmang is more beneficial to new players and reduces the situation of being stuck by elemental shields. After all, new players cannot cultivate all elements. Huangmang simplifies the thinking of breaking shields.
In addition, Fontaine’s Elemental Trial Instrument seems to look a little different? The conventional trial instrument attaches elements to the original demon and improves various attributes. Players can only eliminate it through elemental reactions. Fontaine's Elemental Trial Instrument seems to be different. In addition to elemental reactions, it can also directly use the wild light to restrain and dispel the enemy's gain. If you put it into the abyss, then Fontaine's character has indeed been realized , bringing advantages in team formation that ignores elements without inflating its value.
Previously, players were worried that I just wanted to hoard the raw stones to draw Tianli, and at the same time I was not planning to practice the role of Fontaine. So, would I be stuck in the exploration of Fontaine? Not really. There are wild energy blocks in the wilds of Fontaine, which can be cast through normal attacks, heavy attacks, or falling attacks .
In other words, old characters can still break the shield by collecting wild energy blocks around the mechanism. Fontaine characters can decide whether to join the team according to their own preferences. This feature is also the same in underwater exploration. If you are not ready to defect to the Fontaine system, just pick up the energy block, it’s just a different choice.
In addition to combat and puzzle solving, the official also released "aircraft", and players can activate the aircraft with the help of the wild light mechanism. So what is this means of transportation? I guess it's the airship that appeared in 4.0PV. There is a high probability that the trajectory is fixed, and players can only change their field of view.
However, the above opinions are only Dongli’s personal words, and everything will be subject to the test after the implementation of Fontaine 4.0.
