Hey Ryan! Great content, superb quality as always. In reference to the Magic Wand for the Wizard, it was shown in a player's hand in an early playtest teaser video but was never utilized afterwards. However, in the recent Dev Q&A sometime between Playtests 4 and 5, the devs mentioned that they wanted other classes to have access to spellcasting that don't innately have it available as a skill, such as Fighters. I think there was a hint at the possibility of weapons having a spell locked to them as an idea for this. While they didn't go in to much detail, something like a wand with say, 5 pre-loaded Fireball charges that expend on use could be interesting. It could also potentially be used as a catalyst for spells once depleted for actual spellcasting classes, or maybe we could have a way to recharge it at a merchant or with a campfire as non-caster classes. But that last bit is personal speculation. Thanks for the upload!
This was amazing to watch. Thank you for making this video so detailed and so organized specially in these hard times to give us some hope for the future of it.
Thanks you for the long content I been trying to find more dark and Darker playtest 5 But not a lot about playtest 5 I'm kinda bored for wating early access
The Magic Wand is possibly another ranged option for Mages that doesn't use spells. So it most likely casts some kind of ranged magical attack on left-click and some kind of channeling ranged magical attack on right-click. The purpose is probably to give Mages an option for self-defense that isn't melee (e.g. Crystal Sword, Dagger, or Staff) but allows them to remain at range, where they're strongest.
The fact that there are this many great concepts really shows how passionate ironmace is with this game. The fact that they drop 2 new maps is kinda insane (even through ruins is kinda eeh... for anyone that isn't rouge)
Cockatrices also have the ability to petrify creatures they peck or look at into stone, so maybe this one will have some sort of restraining ability I think that’ll be pretty cool
As usual, top notch mining, analysis, and presentation. Much appreciated sir. With momentum waning as of late, this provided some hype I sorely needed.
With the enviroments and the crafting that they are doing. I could even see a future where you have to get certain components from different locations to craft different gear.
The wand is actually seen used by the wizard escaping in a portal at 1:36 in the old playtest trailer ruclips.net/video/ckK2F6KReAk/видео.html Edit: I guess not "used" but held more like it!
my thoughts on the file name for it are that maybe it's because it's a one-handed weapon it needs to have different flow chart since you could equip a shield with it or something. at least, as a cleric main that's what i'm hoping.
after over a year, alot of these have been featured in at least a few patches, we are still waiting for in 2024 q2: Magic wand, blacksmith hammer and Kite shield All demons aside from berserker. Imp and Harpy are featured in the test server right now in the Ice abyss map wall crawling (could be ladders) backpacks/sleeping bag survivalist tongue perk (could have been changed to vampirism) crow (interactive animal)
hello SP, I do have a bit of bias as you can imagine haha so I would say some data-mined content should be allowed such as content that can provide helpful info like data driven guides or stuff that can hype the community up and give them insight on what's planned ahead. However, I do have to say that it is probably much easier to ban data mining entirely as there is unfortunately some that will use this tech maliciously (security exploits, hack development, etc.).
You gotta be careful with datamining since many game developers hate people doing that. With that being said, the newest trailer from Ironmace really did confirm stuff from this video, props to that!
Rouge is the most perk starved class in the game. He relies on them the most and has to leave MANY good ones behind. Putting double jump on gear (assuming you can buy it for around 50-100g) would be a buff to rouge. It would stop bambi rouges from being so annoying, while allowing geared rouges to focus more perks into their lethality or additional utility. I really hope they make the hidden pockets perk (the one that hides your toolbelt) just a default attribute of the rouge as it's super annoying to play without but never worth a slot as you can just take a second to change up your toolbelt. Also I'd love to see the sneak perk get rolled into the invisibility skill. Would be a nice buff for rouge.
gr8 vid! love to see that the devs are really backing up what they are saying about what they want to add into the game edit: watching the vid for the 3rd time now....LOL i hope so much it will hit EA
This video is insanely detailed and interesting, we are so lucky to have someone like you in the community
We're lucky to have you too Banana, your positivity is always motivating. Thank you for being you!
@@ryan6daysaweek yeah it also shows what a detailed unique AWESOME game DnD actually is! HOLD THE LINE!
Videos like this are exactly what I'm looking for when I'm on RUclips
Erich back with the clean shades, thank you as always for the kind words
incredible video
The amount of hype this generates is so unfair.. but still i love it.
Great video brother
thank you rubik and I am glad you enjoyed the vid - hoping Early Access comes soon than we expect
Can't wait to see what they do with Druid man DAYYYYUM it's gonna be so sick!
Survival elements and longer maps are gonna be an absolute banger to play.

thank you Veggie, I always appreciate your insight - great call on the Q&A spell casting responses too about more spell casting, I'll check them out!

thank you for this nice comment Diogo, just reminds me of how great this community is!
Incredible work here. Thanks for making this content. Subscribed, and liked.
thank you for the support Mike!
Thanks you for the long content
I been trying to find more dark and Darker playtest 5
But not a lot about playtest 5
I'm kinda bored for wating early access
Great video, Thanks for taking the time to dig through all the files! :)

hoping this will bring wizards back, I didn't see many in playtest 5!
The reddit post with the datamined content didnt last, im glad you made this
great song choice for the environment previews section. 🙏
Fantastic upload again sir. (Sorry for my mental illnesses)
Wasn't allowed to share this on the general-chat, spread the word, the Nineth hath delivered the truth
The Ironmace CEO is a huge EverQuest fan. That's why he pushed for Bard and Druid to be in the game. Also Cockatrice is an mob type in Everquest.
The fact that there are this many great concepts really shows how passionate ironmace is with this game.
The fact that they drop 2 new maps is kinda insane (even through ruins is kinda eeh... for anyone that isn't rouge)
Cockatrices also have the ability to petrify creatures they peck or look at into stone, so maybe this one will have some sort of restraining ability
I think that’ll be pretty cool
As usual, top notch mining, analysis, and presentation. Much appreciated sir. With momentum waning as of late, this provided some hype I sorely needed.
thank you Arcane, I always appreciate your kind words - hoping we get some news on EA soon!
I have been waiting for a vid from the legend Ryan himself 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fantastic Digging!
Im excited for what the future holds for this game!!
Now just waiting on my coffee lol!!
you're going to have to give me a review on that coffee, I back home just a bit too late haha!
With the enviroments and the crafting that they are doing. I could even see a future where you have to get certain components from different locations to craft different gear.
🔥video. Doing great work Ryan! Thank you for your efforts and for sharing this info.
thank you Double Ds, I just couldn't contain all the hype - had to share it! haha
great vid and choice of background music, so amped atm this game needs to release
Cockatrice may probably be the base model used for the dragon 🤔
The excitement grows stronger..
Thank you so much dude, this is awesome. I want to fucking cry, god please let this game come out, I beg you!!!
Good to know that even with the content that isn’t out yet, my project still has way more going on 😊
This game is sure gunna be something special ain’t it.
I do hope so. Fingers are crossed that we get some good news soon!
I can hear the fungus squelching underneath my rugged boots
poetry to my ears haha
Fantastic video, makes me look forward to the game so much. I pray Nexon doesn’t prevent its release.
Thank you Ethan, hoping for EA to come out as soon as possible!

Great find!
my thoughts on the file name for it are that maybe it's because it's a one-handed weapon it needs to have different flow chart since you could equip a shield with it or something. at least, as a cleric main that's what i'm hoping.
I think the backpacks should go in the cloak slot, so you have to choose between + stats or + inventory space
that's a good call, I could see this being the most likely way it is implemented
IRONMACE is creating a masterpiece.
after over a year, alot of these have been featured in at least a few patches, we are still waiting for in 2024 q2:
Magic wand, blacksmith hammer and Kite shield
All demons aside from berserker. Imp and Harpy are featured in the test server right now in the Ice abyss map
wall crawling (could be ladders)
backpacks/sleeping bag
survivalist tongue perk (could have been changed to vampirism)
crow (interactive animal)
If i had to guess that kite shield and maybe warhammer go to the paladin, and the blacksmith hammer has no reason being besides for the Artificer
Hi Ryan! What are your thoughts on the subreddit rule change regarding Data-mined content?
hello SP, I do have a bit of bias as you can imagine haha so I would say some data-mined content should be allowed such as content that can provide helpful info like data driven guides or stuff that can hype the community up and give them insight on what's planned ahead.

The deepnesses grow deeper!☝🤯👌

The crow is going to be a warlock summon familiar. Calling it now lol.
that would be awesome, I am a people of the birds
Love this video. Create job man. You can tell the effort you have put into it.
Thank you Flow!
intweresting interesting, cant wait to play more
Great video, thank you!
of course hemligman, thank you for checking it out!
DaD HYPE DaD HYPE
Double jump on boots is so much better than rogue exclusive perk.
What a great developmental decision.
Top-tier content. Thank you.
Awesome video thank you
naah bro this has so much potential it hypes me up so much
my diet has been strictly hype and hopium since I first played this game haha
15:53 I wonder if this is a fun reference by the team to a character in Street Fighter name Urien. His super is called Aegis Reflector.
we luv u for this
Nice work inspector
Thank you Greg, your NW vids just gave me so much nostalgia. I used to play that game so much when it first came out haha

could the magic wand have a preloaded spell like, "magic wand of lesser heal" for everybody to cast?
definitely a possibility, I like this idea
@@ryan6daysaweek legendary wands that give rogues chain lightning and barbs haste.
@@MrBionicCOW fuck that
gr8 vid! love to see that the devs are really backing up what they are saying about what they want to add into the game
edit: watching the vid for the 3rd time now....LOL i hope so much it will hit EA
I started doing the spartan chant once he mentioned warlock. And then cried after he said he found nothing.
great video!
Y’all think we’re gonna get professions in dark and darker?
i miss the game so much
im not crying your crying
I like the idea of more races, but no skeletons please, it’s a bit confusing to real skeletons.
i love these videos :D big hype
Please mention all the music used in the video
Music should be in the description, it may be in the "music used" section which may not appear in RUclips mobile quite yet though
love ur video , lot of hopium for me thx!!
Yo this video just made me like and subscribe, but I already did it on the last vid. So I unsubbed and resubbed
Im going to thrust my longsword into the first harpy i see
Отлично! Ты столько много накопал!! Респект.
Спасибо за вашу доброту (sorry if my wording is bad, I used a translator)
Now imagine if the game wasn’t stolen and was released! Banger vid though! 😊😊😊
Lol wait for the player with allot of weight, and slow movement speed -> hunt him down with your empty inventory -> get out
I feel like this was the guy that ddosed playtest 5.
We could not play as skeleton in PT 5
Good catch and that is my bad - I generalized the race availability on the playtests since they were both released on pt4 but should have specified!
you are such a goat
With videos like this you could go down to ryan1dayAweek, keep at it!
I love you ryan
Weight system will ruin the game like it does for tarkov
You and Repoze are my copium until EA.
haha ty if you find Repoze don't tell him that I still drink all pulp orange juice
Did this m*********** just call dungeons and dragons a board game...
my bad haha, my friends just roasted me too on that lol
Ahh yes the base game and balance is tuned for no lifers and is thusly trash what should we do... ADD MORE ITEMS
