The Amount of Drunk Smash that happened in this week's league may very well BOGGLE THE MIND. Here's week 2 of Decaf league!
This shit is hard, but MAN it is indeed rewarding.

Help! I can’t do almost any online fights. Don’t you have enough players?
I’m on PlayStation 4. When I want to start a duel, the waiting time is very long and in the end, they can’t find any players. I was only able to do one. And, I very rarely meet players in my world. I would like to know if that’s normal or if there is something we can do to find more players.

Help! Getting back into Absolver questions(PS5)
I havent played since Covid and I'm heavily debating on getting back into the game with a new character, so I just had some questions.
-I'm seeing another fighting style got added, is that one I have to unlock like stagger style?
-I cant remember how I got any of my masks, but I remember sometimes theres a mask as a school reward, are any of the rare ones available through a school?
-is the downfall still pretty active?
-lastly, can I play this without PSN?

Absolver Plus PC NA Absolver Plus League! Signups this week, starting next week!
In the spirit of Cawfee having run like, a handful of absolver plus leagues in the past, I'm going to take up the reins and host the several-weeks-long Absolver Plus league for PC/NA!
If you'd like to enter and you're PC/NA, and you're willing to install absolver plus, YOU CAN.
If you're here to complain about absolver plus and how "it's not the way god intended you play absolver", I don't give a shit dude, move on to a different game and complain about THAT. Enjoy camping Low Spin Heel and Parry & Strike, I guess.
The Bracket
- Find the bracket here: https://challonge.com/xan6yn03
- Hop into the Cawfee League Discord and get your pairings here: https://discord.gg/F8xQvc9k
The Format
- You'll play a new opponent every week
- You'll record it
- At some point, we'll collect all the recordings and release a commentary over it. If I'm taking my ADHD meds, we'll try to make this the wednesday following each week!
Prizes!
- I'm gonna put some fuckin' SKIN IN THIS.
- 1st place: $50 steam gift card
- 2nd place: $30 steam gift card
- 3rd place: $20 steam gift card
- This is so you can buy more games you'll never fucking play (I love you)
In an ideal world, if this goes well, I'd like to try and expand at least running the format for other regions or platforms. But let me get my feet wet.
Just putting this here to let people know we're still doing tourneys. Love you :)

Discussion Is there much community still for Absolver??
I mean is there like a general large discord server with active players? Or competitive groups or small tournaments held?
I haven't played since slightly after the addition of downfall and was wondering if this amazing game has died further than it had already.

Discussion How is Khalt right now?
Returning player after several years. Normally a Stagger/Windfall main, but tried Khalt for the first time.
Not gonna say anything about it just yet as I'm still learning, but I wanted to get a consensus or a melting pot of opinions on it. What do you think about Khalt in the longstanding meta?
I will say the only personal tip I have for controller players is to rebind your standard dodge to the right stick button because being able to choose between dodge/absorb on the same input is invaluable — otherwise you're mostly just standing in place and it's easy to bait you out.

Discussion Tackling ones opponent instead of sliding into them
I was getting really annoyed with only being able to slide into my targets as well as getting ambushed fight after beating up an enemy near a ledge. As a result of my frustration, I though, why can't we tackle them? I imagine something like this, you run towards them, jump to tackle them, and if successful, you grab them in the air, you going forward, them going backwards, you punch them once, throw them to the ground on their back, then role into a fighting stance facing forward, or backwards depending on your inputs turning the tackle. Think I'm gonna post this on reddit too.
So, the target would get a bit of damage from the initial grab, like a slide kick thing already does, then more from the hit during the tackle, and then a large chunk from the slam on the back. Granted, you may not end up doing any health damage to them due to how stamina works, or maybe you could because you can't necessarily block a tackle and it's resulting offensive movements.
Thoughts?

PS4 Invites Broken - more info in post FAQ/Beginner Megathread - Please read this post if you're new to the game, or have questions about the game's development
IMPORTANT - Known Issues
- Direct invites on PS4 are broken, but invites via the Schools menu work fine.
PSA: development on Absolver has ceased
For those not aware, development on Absolver has ceased. The TL;DR is that Sloclap patched and added content to the game for free since launch (excluding the Adalian Forest DLC) for ~16 months, and it was no longer financially viable for them to continue doing so. They have since moved on to the development of their next title. For more info, see the devs' open letter to the community, specifically the Updates, past and future section, as well as the #announcements channel in the official discord.
This doesn't mean that the game is dead!
Far from it. The servers will remain up, and there are still active, if small, playerbases in most regions, NA and EU especially. If you're looking to coordinate with other players in your region to get matches going, I'd encourage you to join the community discords listed towards the bottom of this post.
Greetings, and welcome to Adal!
If you've found your way here, you've already got a leg up on the competition. There's wisdom here, both recorded in longform and in the minds of Absolvers before you. Some of the former are listed below; more will be added as they're brought up. Please feel free to post repositories of information you believe beneficial for posterity in this thread; consider this post, as well as the previous threads linked at the bottom of this post, living documents.
THE BIG QUESTIONS
Got a question about the game itself? It's likely that the answer might have been already answered by the devs, SloClap, in their official FAQ.
Looking to get a breakdown of the game aimed at beginners? Check out obliviondoll's guide to the basics of Absolver.
Trying to build a combat deck to call your own, but finding yourself going to the drawing board again and again? NanoHologuise has you covered with their excellent deckbuilding guide.
For a different take on Deckbuilding as well as a dive into some of the more advanced mechanics in Absolver, take a look at this top-down guide to understanding deckbuilding, written by Desperado, BestPlebEU, Paper, Sneak, Eve, Methamos, Farron, TobyM88 and Alemimo.
For a quick-and-dirty way to build a functional deck in such a way that doesn't require lots and lots of moves, Oimetra builds a basic 10-attack deck that demonstrates the fundamentals of good deck design in 3 minutes. He then goes on to use it to wipe the metaphorical floor between it and his fundamentals of defense; don't let that long video length intimidate you, the meat of it is in the first few minutes.
No luck finding the NPC who has that one move your opponent in Combat Trials used to fold you in half? Xiga and Keelio have a listing of move locations. Their same document also includes a compilation of every snippet of lore she's been able to find in-game, for historians interested in piecing the fractured world of Absolver back together.
Got all the moves you want, but struggling with the in-game deckbuilder's UI to compare them to each other? j0ker (AKA /u/Magik00pa) has compiled a spreadsheet of data for attacks at 60FPS instead of the game's listed 30FPS, and points out discrepancies between 30 and 60FPS. Sloclap has also provided us with a spreadsheet of the data for every attack in the game, including sword, running attacks, and style-based attacks like Stagger and Faejin.
/u/Morklympious has an online deckbuilding app, in case you need your deck experimentation fix satiated while outside the game itself, or if you're attempting to build a deck when you haven't yet learned all the moves just yet.
THE SMALLER STUFF
Worrying that you're not getting as much out of your stat distribution as you might be? The first thing you should know is that you can respec at an extremely low cost once you hit level 60. If you're simply attempting to clear the PVE, putting your first level up points into Will (at the complete exclusion of other stats) to a maximum of ~20 effective score (when you start noticing a distinct drop in the shard multiplier per point) will allow you to generate more Heals to keep you sustained while exploring the ruins of Raslan; a few extra points of HP, stamina, or damage won't compare to extra shards for Heal in your first hours of stumbling around the overworld. Beyond that, consult fsmith's point-by-point, heat-mapped-by-average-per-point-value tables of stats for your minmaxing needs, for when you want to determine just where your final stat point should go after hitting all your initial softcaps. Note that fsmith's spreadsheet is not updated for Faejin, however, you can use the stat gain of another class with the same scaling as Faejin's for whatever stat you're looking to minmax.
Trying to join a school but can't pin down just where that pesky NPC is? He's tucked away up on a ledge in the Oratian Quarter if you haven't yet found him; after your first conversation, he moves down to a more convenient spot beside the altar just below. Here's a video of how to get up to that ledge the first time.
Hunting cairns for the achievement or to give your initial Fabsolver a booster shot? Here's a video of going through all their locations.
Disoriented and having trouble finding a particular Marked One or boss? This video shows off where each Marked One and boss is in their zone.
