Amazon Games and NCSoft are sharing some new details from the recent Throne and Liberty technical test. The team thanks testers once more, and shares a variety of stats.
The technical test ended on October 3rd, and the team thanked all of the testers for participating and giving their feedback and helping the teams collect data to continue refining Throne and Liberty towards its eventual global release.
Amazon’s latest post on the Throne and Liberty site features Franchise Lead Merv Lee Kwai, who extends some more gratitude towards testers and reminding those who were not selected for this round of testing, that they are planning more tests. Wwe’re excited to share a glimpse into more changes as a direct result of feedback in future tests and look forward to welcoming more players into Solisium,” he says in the post.
The meat of the latest post is in the infographic that accompanies it. The infographic gives a taste of what players were doing during the technical test, what might be some of the most difficult content, and some of the other achievements over the brief test. There were 100,609 total player deaths during the test and 3,742,832 total NPC deaths.
As for the most deadly NPCs to players, the top one by a margin of nearly 2,000 more kills was the Mad Red Pyromancer. The most-killed NPC also led by an overwhelming margin. Testers sure killed a lot of Desert Cobras–273,920 of them–-more than 100k more kills than the runner up. Players also defeated the world boss Morokai the most during the test, for 173 kills.
There are 48,055 noted PVP kills, and this is included in those player deaths, so about half of them were in PvP. The PvP fans have already set their sights on Throne and Liberty, and this might be a sign of things to come.
Overall, the stats shared give some insight into the focus and features that the final launch might hold to immerse yourself in.
Head to Throne and Liberty for more.
