    Ive always kinda felt the opposite. I was big into buying import PS1 games back in the mid to late 90s thanks to a shop nearby that sold them. It was always cool to have the big, hyped games months or years before anyone else, disregarding the fact I couldnt read anything without a translation...

    OWL related, it appears the NYXL has wiped it's roster and is looking to refill it with players from "marginalized and unrepresented genders" Even if by chance they have the best intentions (and ignoring the fact that it could also be a potential cost cutting measure as Contenders and below...

    But the shop update went in just fine. I laughed when I saw that they're selling a new skin for Mei even though she's disabled and unplayable. Priorities!

    But, you gotta look good for your potg highlight intro! I do agree though. For me I just liked collecting them. Id get mild FOMO during the events and play for boxes to try to catch all the skins before the event ended. The tough part for me, and apparently most of reddit, is it's just not easy...

    Halloween event starts tomorrow, teaser video happily, and unsurprisingly, advertises that no skins are earnable through the event, but you're encouraged to purchase all the old OW1 Halloween skins in the shop, along with what looks like only two new skins, also only purchasable with cash. Funny...

    Bastion is currently bugged and with his ult you can fire like 20 mortar shells. Hilarious, very scary, and hopefully fixed soon.

    After putting some hours into it the past few days, Ive decided mystery heroes is no longer fun. It seems way too easy and common for rng to completely bone you. Couple tanks and couple healers on the other team? GG, next.

    These awesome events always seem to hit when Im at a bleh point with the game. Huge exp boosts, huge drop rate boosts, zero interest in sitting there mashing orcs. Gonna do my dark rifts tomorrow morning and see how Im feeling about things. Might try to grind out an hour somewhere in Marni-land...

    Well, on the bright side, Mystery Heroes does exist, it's under quick play now instead of arcade for some reason. edit- not gonna lie though, it's not been too fun. Old maps feel weird with 5v5 and the push maps can be extremely one sided snowballs thanks to rng.

    Saw something last night before bed that claimed it was under a ddos attack, whether that's a convenient excuse for shitty servers or not, I dunno. I was able to slide in this morning and look around. Still no Mystery Heroes in the arcade :confused:

    Crescents would have been a godsend over Ronaros, Im jealous that there's an option. Im in maintenance mode on the game atm, just logging in for rewards then back out. Im too pissy at all the enhance failures. I'm up to 8 fails now going for PEN Blackstar with a 252 stack. I know it's only a...

    Yeah, I was a little disappointed at only 1 hammer, was hoping for 2. Enhance attempt failed but Im about 100 crons shy of being able to try a second attempt for the PEN blackstar. Overall the ball stuff felt a little ho hum. Lots of QoL stuff like the hub and connecting stuff but content wise...

    I'll tag her with the Nova and gear copy and try her out. Provided the numbers transfer over equally she'll be 291ap/354dp, although if energy management is a thing, i may end up back on the potion grind, which is probably not a horrible idea since my valk is only mid 60 in level. Just grind her...

    Your luck is disgusting, share a little with me when it's time to JHammer my BS awakening wep this weekend. Im still kinda hobbling along in game, not doing a whole lot atm.

    Slow. Downside to trying for the compass or map after the potion is there is no pity pieces for those, just gotta grind and grind and grind and....etc Im kinda losing interest in BDO again, I usually go hard for a few months then put it down for six months or more. Im just floating by atm...

    Bliz seems to be removing every trace of Tigole's design decisions from the game. A new Bliz blog post discusses how the design philosophy for OW2 has changed, they're essentially doing away with hard counters for heroes, which is their justification for locking heroes behind the battlepass.

    I read that earlier and it's a horrible move but let's be honest, spirit of the game left with Tigole. An article I saw said something like 80 tiers of a battle pass which feels like a lot. I dont play stuff like Apex or whatever other game has a battle pass these days so I dont really have a...

    I went straight to Fallen God first, then i started spreading caphras around to the other pieces. No idea if that's the suggested/preferred method though so take that with a grain of salt. Ronaros were so annoying, and they are such trolls too. You will get a bazillion of those worthless little...

    My opinion is get a TET blackstar as your primary wep (if youre awakening, get BS awakening, etc). Funnel caphras into your armor to raise DP and begin the groundwork toward Fallen God/Labreska. Your offhand should be the last thing you work on, if youve got PEN Kutum, you're fine. Even if your...

    The bloodwolves were really easy for me it felt like. I made the loop around the raised/cliff like area and as a nova it was a super fast grind. I farmed up 40ish pity pieces in just a few days (maybe 8-10 hours of grinding?) and got the full piece drop at 47 pity. I'd also HIGHLY recommend you...

    That's bizarre, mine arent doing that, they're just dropping into the vault/being used like normal. Grats on the helm though. I dumped 6billion into that failstack event to get my 231 stack ready for when I get the crons and/or balls to begin attempting PEN Blackstar. Since I have so many...

    The buff items from the login rewards are automatically applied when they come in as far as I can tell. You wont get a physical item to use, they are just applied to your existing buff time. I havent had to click to receive any rewards since maintenance, I havent seen what youre referring to.

    You wont be able to use it. After graduation you get a set of Reform crystals that change the season tuvala gear over to normal tuvala gear. You will only get one set of stones, so any other pieces of tuvala will still be flagged as season gear. As far as Im aware, you can only take one set of...

    This was posted on reddit as an easier to understand breakdown: You're looking at 7.2 billion silver to buy all of the available Essence of Devouring (get 4 for free, gotta buy the rest). My existing 147 stack may grow a bit, but I think that might be all I do. I got Disto's to save for.

    I dont have any of the permanent items yet, this potion will be the first. As for whether it's worth it, absolutely. When you begin grinding and fighting in areas that are challenging in any way, you will take damage and you will need potions to heal in order to keep going. Having the infinite...

    Two pot pieces down, one to go. I was 47 pity pieces into the Bloodwolf farm and the full piece to dropped for me Saturday. I moved over to Ronaros and quickly discovered I'd rather jab my eyes out with a fork than farm these guys. It's horrible :( Im 20 pity pieces into the grind but it's...

    Got my Vell heart squared away and finished up the Sherekhan pot piece. Im pretty much done with "easy upgrades" for now and everything else will be expensive, long-term sort of money saving goals.

    That's a nice chunk of money to build off of, Im in the same boat though, buying upgrades would be in the 60-120 billion range which seems so far off, but it may not be too horrible if I can get into Elvia regularly soon. Do the Cups from elvia add sheet AP/DP or is it hidden? Got rank 4 of the...

    Only 8 billion? What a steal! :P. I remember when 8 billion seemed like so much to me, now im like "only five billion to go then I can buy the Vell heart" I feel like the Sherekhan part went pretty quick, hopefully I can actually get a full piece from either Horsepeople or Bloodwolves and...

    Got the Fallen God armor knocked out this morning and bumped it up once (failed to bump it up twice, may try again later).

    When you're one of the first people on after the servers are up from maintenance (and yall can also enjoy my teamviewer graphics). I also finally got the silver to buy the PEN Urugons and have my pre-order placed. Painful watching your silver total drop down into the five digit range.

    I dont believe crystals can break from pvp, that would be the ultimate troll for the 750gs players to just roll around assblasting people fresh off season servers or something. I honestly think it's kinda dumb for crystals to break period, it makes me very nervous and hesitant to try...
