It seems that if you're not out of stamina you shouldn't hear that, but instead should just hear swimming sounds until you start taking damage. sug_yrq1urxi8kgiaax 2026-05-19T21:32:27Z 2026-05-28T17:41:34Z When one adds hides to the tanning rack, the hide show in the organized leather top of the rack. As they are processed into leather, they appear as hides in the lower section of the rack. Was this by design? sug_tg6f8omftcxx6bh 2026-05-10T17:59:59Z 2026-05-14T16:11:17Z I broke the altar of Demeter before obtaining the "calming the storm" quest. Now when I activate the growing of the Kythera it grows, but the enemies do not spawn, and it will not let me interact with it. I've tried every fix I could find but nothing worked. I now cannot complete the "calming the storm" quest. sug_hzisi6hswp6vac8 2026-05-05T21:57:42Z 2026-05-06T15:46:17Z More facets for tools, such as one that increases yield. sug_tnjcjrrwcyr3znf 2026-05-05T22:01:37Z 2026-05-06T15:46:15Z Make custom markers visible on your HUD compass. sug_hm462hvxabmdno1 2026-05-06T15:23:40Z 2026-05-06T15:45:04Z When building, make player invisible and also have an option to hide the description for already placed buildables. Both of these things block the view when trying to place items, especially when attaching one item (torch) to another (column). It makes precision placement impossible. sug_zflyzqblmjho6v7 2026-05-05T17:34:19Z 2026-05-05T18:06:23Z Please add a setting to control the color, brightness, and size of the reticle. The tiny white reticle gets lost on the screen, especially when it is most crucial: timed archery events. And there are a lot of those... Aiming with a virtually invisible reticle is especially difficult when using a controller as the movements aren't as precise as with a mouse, and having a clean, bold indication of when you're on target would be very helpful. sug_95xsfzlhanzyaiw 2026-05-03T19:19:23Z 2026-05-04T15:42:51Z The statue of Herm next to the shrine implies that Aphrodite's brother headed north into the "Misted Hills", which suggests the Dark Forest. He goes on to say that rumors tell of a great bear haunting those slopes. This suggests the camp may be near Titan's den. I have searched both areas thoroughly and have not found the camp. The internet tells me the camp is actually in the Ancient Desert. If this is true, the inscription on the Herm statue should be updated. If it's not true, then I give up because I can't find the camp (I haven't been to the Ancient Desert yet). sug_4g1drce2bmvxol3 2026-05-01T22:29:43Z 2026-05-04T15:25:06Z Why do the weapons and armor you get from quests, such as "My Other Blade", "The Forgotten Commander", etc. have the same damage/protection as already available weapons/armor? If you're sending us all over the map and having us fight, search, etc., is it too much to ask that the rewards are a little better than the standard faire? The Sword of Demos was a nice reward, but why does the Molon Labe have the same protection as the Reiver shield??? That makes it essentially a cosmetic upgrade, not a WOW moment. Please consider at least a small bump to the stats of these items. sug_lcfazxofi5e4k8g 2026-04-30T16:13:22Z 2026-04-30T20:32:34Z Some players have reported losing skills/inventory when relogging into their worlds. sug_5yydklgjfmcva8c 2025-12-21T05:32:47Z 2026-04-28T16:59:11Z When receiving items from the postmortem burial ground, there was a failure of the inventory into the stone. I couldn't lift it, except for the blue glow, there are no other signs. Location - a chest with a night seal in a Dark Forest sug_0eictpzw7bicml6 2026-04-18T13:59:41Z 2026-04-27T21:15:01Z adding more sliders for body like height, weight, length and size of arm, legs, chest that kinda stuff. sug_4dj1ma5zrzbwdt1 2026-04-15T01:54:39Z 2026-04-27T21:14:59Z You can still hear the chest jingle sound and pedestal in Hecate temple is still there, but can't interact with it. sug_xj5jrwpqvp7cwrz 2026-04-18T21:01:13Z 2026-04-27T21:12:49Z When I shoot a duck that is flying instead of dropping to ground they disappear. I can see the number of damage then poof they are gone. Please fix. sug_83xu6mzibms5hly 2026-04-10T18:03:34Z 2026-04-11T14:33:15Z I'm trying to log in to my Epic account so I can play multiplayer, but I keep trying over and over again and it won't let me in, and in the end it gives me an error message. sug_owpwsfohezpcspz 2026-04-09T19:00:33Z 2026-04-30T21:48:16Z Ok so in my opinion that would be such a good addition even as in game options to turn it on or off - so if you played for example Crimson Desert and other games that has such mechanic that if you hold down LMB then player character is doing its attacks constantly without need to click spam to attack. sug_fu7llshucpu67pf 2026-04-05T09:42:51Z 2026-04-30T20:51:41Z While playing in multiplayer we encountered a issue were even after completing THE WITCH'S TRIAL and unlocking the Pickaxe recipe, it did not unlock and we were not able to craft one, this off course hindered our progression at HECATES PORTAL(mission)due to not being able to get clay thus we are stuck and can not progress. sug_chxkelcdpfxihop 2026-03-29T05:55:35Z 2026-04-08T17:08:22Z When increasing the speed at which refineries produce via the world setting, it also has the side affect of increasing the amount of fuel used for the same amount of ingots. I did testing with iron. Default settings is 10 charcoal for 10 bars. I changed the setting from 1 to 2 after going back to the main menu, and it went to 10 bars for 20 charcoal. I'm assuming this is a bug and not a feature. sug_0jedcetvortejha 2026-04-04T05:37:26Z 2026-04-08T17:08:12Z In Hephasetus' shrines, the mirror can forget that you added the ambrosa dust to activate it. I think that it happened after I logged out, but I am not 100% sure. sug_e7holayu6j05hw2 2026-01-31T10:53:56Z 2026-03-16T21:38:24Z Sometimes chopping trees sounds like you are doing it in a cave and very soft and echoey sug_ykqyhinnieyzq7t 2026-02-08T15:06:47Z 2026-03-16T21:37:26Z The game does not always startup it just hangs on the small Dawn of Defiance box that appears after i click play from steam library. i have verified integrity of files but still happens sug_jod45gfsqgztf1d 2026-03-04T20:40:11Z 2026-03-16T21:39:04Z With only allowing 10 metal and 20 wood per smelter, you have to babysit the smelters to keep it going. As a Fireshine Creator, it's not great for streaming to have to sit and babysit the smelters. It would be great to be able to load up a smelter with a lot of metal and wood so it'll cook while we're out exploring, doing raids, etc. With metal being such a big part of the armor/weapons, it takes too long to get upgrades done. sug_pdxzm8bek4c8a82 2026-02-13T06:29:25Z 2026-03-16T21:35:52Z I completed the Spearmans seal, looted the chest and broke the seal, however the game didn't register that I had broken the seal, and is still telling me that I have to break it. I've completed all other seals in the tutorial, and it's still telling me I have to break the spearman's seal. Is there any fix for this? I've even tried physically attacking it, which obviously didn't work. I'm out of ideas. Help please. sug_zbyghc222tdwny9 2026-03-12T09:28:37Z 2026-03-16T21:28:29Z Started the game up with a new character, no sound at all, using Arctis7p headset. Browser sound works, PC sound works but game sound is not working at all. Launched with Direct X12 which says recommended. There seems to be no in game option to change sound inputs. When I change the sound mixer in Windows to Speaker it works, but headset wont work at all. sug_dmgjgq4nx69bdg0 2026-03-16T18:48:45Z 2026-04-30T19:37:54Z The archery circles that are in order by color doesn't work for color blind people regardless of the 'Color Blind' settings!!! Congrats on discriminating color blind people and making it almost impossible, especially the 2nd challenge in the first big 'raid'. See if Steam will return sug_i5jjefdnpg5jvrq 2026-01-12T20:45:48Z 2026-01-14T19:11:02Z When dashing through the vail of the waterdrop twice, I got stuck sug_t4rh49r2njgd185 2025-12-26T02:26:44Z 2026-01-14T19:08:26Z On my brothers server/world, we made it out of the starting island, and I built the Simple Hammer on the crafting table. The lumber mill was not unlocked on the Simple Hammer's menu, however it was unlocked for the other 2 people playing in the group. My progress is now locked, and I can't switch to another character as it just puts me with all the same gear/recipes and has the same bug, no matter what character I try now. sug_xb1rimbixhet31b 2025-12-23T20:50:44Z 2026-04-30T21:44:52Z I put the inlay which gives poison downward strike into my euradayle diresong and it just dissapeared from the game sug_co5kkf9rqtjh1vr 2025-12-22T17:57:45Z 2026-01-14T19:02:51Z Add an inventory to all crafting benches, as I most of the times struggle to add and take stuff from the current benches especially the smelter and campfire. Just add a inventory then you can add and take everything on one screen. sug_izy7hunhqgza0fs 2025-09-12T17:38:53Z 2026-04-30T18:26:21Z A bush in the air is floating in the air. The location of the error in the screenshot is marked with a red circle. sug_eqcuxqpbj4ba9n3 2025-12-17T16:33:02Z 2026-01-14T18:57:45Z It is impossible to place the chest in the right place. It is installed only at the corners of the square. To install it outside the corner, you need to create and install chests on the entire side of the square, and then remove unnecessary ones. sug_qk8a8jiybca3ywk 2025-12-20T07:53:11Z 2026-01-14T18:56:01Z Endurance is spent in a squat position without any movement. sug_wpjjuzifapfefrc 2026-01-11T19:25:59Z 2026-04-30T18:28:41Z Right now the Signifier Soldie Cuirass (with cloak also) has the same stats (armor and stamina debuff) as the Centurion tiered chest pieces. It should have the same stats as the Voyager Soldier Cuirass (i suppose). sug_rlnjzb1prckhhhb 2025-12-02T02:54:11Z 2026-04-30T16:30:30Z I managed to block the portal from the start Island back to the main playing area. I built my Citi Center in the center of the round cemented area that the portals are on. Now when I try to port back, it just moves me a few inches and changes my camera angle. Yeah, it was dumb to build that there, but it was also not great that I could. Because you know us gomers will break a game if we can. LOL sug_n4bdtfusrua0ph8 2025-12-10T17:47:12Z 2026-01-14T18:45:31Z So returned to game in anticipation of new update. This save I didn't advance beyond the first island (waiting to play with friend/female character) and I couldn't figure out why the primitive shield recipe/salves weren't in the crafting menu. (was just pressing tab/not utilizing the keybind because it's been a while) I had been playing about an hour. To get them to appear I just had to hit the keybind [H] and they're now there. Just a heads up because returning players may experience the same issue. sug_2sfmfzhscw3urnd 2025-09-10T08:05:44Z 2026-04-30T20:07:08Z When i for the first time weapons an equipment crafted, I looked to the bonus of each item. Sword, Spears and Maces have all the same bonus: critical hit damage 100% Bows: have both same bonus. Is it not possible to give the weapons there own bonus. For example: Kopis Sword 100% critical damage Hoplite Sword: 10% armor HP Reiver Sword: 50% critical damage + 25% Armor HP Stheno's Fulgur: 100% critical damage + 25% armor HP + - 10% stamina This is just an example. I would see weapons and armor with diffrent stats / bonus. Now its more a cosmetic thing then a choice wich weapon will I forged and use. sug_oby0tcqczisaogt 2025-12-28T16:34:56Z 2026-04-30T20:54:58Z I was moving inlays around between my kopis shield and Ironwake's guard. I had the second inlay highlighted on the kopis shield and when I went to the Ironwake's guard the second inlay slot which the Ironwake does not have still was highlighted and allowed me to place a shard which I can not take out without placing another shard in its place. the buff of the shard does not take affect. sug_gcptz8foe8ejbwy 2025-12-15T15:23:09Z 2026-01-14T18:27:35Z Selv explanitory sug_gccprnwz5wlocag 2025-12-23T18:25:07Z 2026-04-30T19:32:56Z After grinding the bone, the ground product is not visible on the grindstone table. sug_nmpthcsvvyxrvwj 2025-12-31T20:42:21Z 2026-01-14T18:15:39Z Happy New Year to All the developers. I wish you new ideas, success and promotion of your ideas in life. Happiness and all the best-)) Happy New Year! sug_upecycjh72s5wzi 2026-01-02T19:22:19Z 2026-01-14T18:15:36Z Every time I enter a temple the sound seems fetchy, always crumbling and not pleasent to listen sug_oytrj8q0snbp3qc 2025-11-07T02:53:49Z 2026-01-14T18:13:51Z When I close the game steam still shows the game is running. If I click for steam to quit the game it just loads forever trying to end the process. I have to force close steam every time after I close the game. sug_5c0nme22dmtzbhp 2025-09-13T06:47:28Z 2026-01-14T18:13:22Z Aren't feathers needed for feathering when making arrows? It seems that before the update we used them to make arrows. I wish the arrows were arrows, not throwing darts. sug_ay3shjtfkppcrlv 2025-09-15T23:53:06Z 2026-01-14T18:13:07Z although I have more than enough raspberries and blackberries in my inventory, I am unable to turn in Forage I quest because it does not see the right amount in my bags sug_sstutxu2zh63sw7 2025-12-13T19:51:43Z 2026-04-30T16:18:51Z Animation of female character seems off, as the movement looks stiff and unnatural. sug_uhoqg8rcp8pu7s5 2025-12-20T07:50:49Z 2026-01-14T18:08:55Z The unnaturalness of the picture, the floor cannot be seen through the furnace in the furnace for burning something. sug_6egfeyb7wpkz5xm 2026-01-14T17:57:28Z 2026-04-28T01:32:40Z When the Client creates a new character on a hosted server instead of a Single Player world, there was an issue that could cause them to lose Skills or Items after a crash or relog. This was addressed in a following hotfix. Please reply here if you still experience this issue. sug_tgpypi88k1gu7jt 2025-12-16T19:43:15Z 2026-01-14T17:55:02Z It is very hard to see if the actual bugs from the good suggestions to improve the game. sug_ksbywly9yiztr9y 2025-12-16T20:31:15Z 2026-01-14T17:53:27Z Player suggesting ability to upgrade facility to reduce fuel requirements, or potentially different fuel amounts or fuel types depending on setting, so they are less required to grind the same enemy constantly. sug_1yn1g492qvhmyp9 2026-01-14T17:52:04Z 2026-04-28T01:26:55Z When placing meat on the Cooking Spit, sometimes the meat will cook but never finish. Placing a second Cooking Spit seems to solve the issue for now.
