    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Pretty much everyone was saying it. Complete cutoff generally means she is getting her hole plugged by someone else. The fact that she is currently shacking up with a married cop is just so white trash clich? that I feel even worse for Onoes. Dude needs to cut all unnecessary contact with the...

    Seriously, deleting the Shaw means all of that retardation is going to spill over into the real forums.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    What you are forgetting is we are talking about an addict here. Dude happened to be holding an empty bottle when lightning struck once and it went to his head. (credit where it is due, Brad did make the big push for 3d graphics at a time when it was more niche) He starts believing his own...

    Was Downfall a German movie? Can't recall, but I thought it was. Das Boat was German made and excellent, so they do exist.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Wife and I share all the same hobbies for the most part, Warhammer, Board Games, Video Games, Sci-fi, and so on. We play tons of coop games together as part of our "couple time". Really the only hobby I had to drop for her was when we both gave up MMOs because of the time suckage involved in...

    i feel very unsecure on this website

    Any idiot that uses an important password on a social website of this nature gets what they deserve. Social Darwinism at work.

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah, in this game, Dex build really means "enough dex to slot this weapon". Building around STR, INT, and Faith are the better paths for weapon use.

    Covetous golden serpent ring and Jester hat ups the drop rate on those to ridiculous levels.

    Battlestar Galactica

    This is just Larson fueled by butthurt over the reboot trying to do things his way. The original series was basically Mormon parable, verbatim. John Colicos (Baltar), Count Iblis, and the theme music are the only parts of the original that stand up to the test of time. The comic books that...

    Dark Souls 2

    There are some interesting thing they can do, just by virtue of not having to swap to catalysts to get your nukes in. Mastering dual wield in this game is the toughest way to play (my next project) because you have to get good at parry in a game with a much narrower window. I am told Agility...

    Dark Souls 2

    BKGS and BKHB both scale A when upgraded on Int and have modest STR and DEX requirements, while still being among the best weapons in the game. Watcher GS is even better for a strictly Int caster and requires less in the way of stats to wield. You cannot expect to have all of that magic and...

    Dark Souls 2

    All good changes, really, though they should probably find a way to make adaptability below 40 useful. Poise is a bit wonky in NG+, but perhaps the hammer nerfs will solve that issue. Sad to see Sorcery and Pyro get nerfed so hard for PvP reasons when its PvE use was already suspect. MLGS...

    Blood Bowl, Season 4

    I am in if needed, but am fine taking a season off since my summer is packed. You guys all have my contact information, so let me know whatever you decide. If we do take a break, I will just ice my teams until we pick it back up.

    Dark Souls

    You have to know about the back door that opens with max covenant status with the chaos mother guild and escort him safely through that part. The back door access to that area also makes that whole zone a lot easier, but it means a big humanity farm to do it.

    Dark Souls

    I think I mainly used terrain staffing (as Dab described) and a spear type weapon against him. If you have a lot of poise and stamina, you can literally beat him down purely by blocking and counter attacking with a longer spear or halberd. Honestly, he was not that hard compared to some of the...

    I tried, but that lizardmen team is pretty well developed and I was down two key guys. Plus its not like Funk makes mistakes, ever. Good trouncing sir.

    Dark Souls 2

    Actually most invaders soul vessel into optimized builds and farm people in the water zones, in my experience. I walk around full human most of the time, so despite no sin on my game I get invaded a shit ton. Usually, it comes down to if you have PvP stuff on you and can slot it before they...

    ReRolled AssHat of the Year WINNER!!!

    Plus a_skeleton_03 has a bunch of sock puppet accounts, befitting his cowardly nature. Even if you were to ban him, he would be around under another alias. He is sort of like Herpes that way.

    I run across a fair amount in coop. Wearing full chaos armor is kind of a dead giveaway on NG.....

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah Dragon Shrine and Arie were awesome. I really liked the Warf too. The only area I didn't care for was the water shrine area, but the cheap ass casters are trivial when you farm them from the opposite direction's bonfires. I agree that the bosses were a touch on the easy side compared to...

    The Grand Budapest Hotel

    Wife and I caught it last weekend. Loved it. It really is a comedy from another era, though, like most of this guys movies. Fiennes knocked it out of the park in this one.

    Dark Souls 2

    Might simply be a busted mechanic, really. And yeah you can play offline, like Lenas, but good fucking luck clearing some of the NG+ fights as certain builds solo. Plus its a lot of fun (and good souls) to coop clear zones with other people. The one major cheat issue is megamule right now...

    Dark Souls 2

    Killing the client puts you on the naughty list which shuts down any assistance or red messages in the game, so for the bulk of the players not really an option. Disconnecting as an invader carries no penalty.

    Dark Souls 2

    My understanding is that the Way of the Blue thing is more or less not working right now. And, even if it was, it requires both parties to wear their respective rings which serve absolutely no other function (unlike, say the Sun or Umbral Rings). Most people I run into cooping are (like me)...

    It also does not help that you can start buying unlimited urns right after the primal fires are lit, but repel (and indeed most of the PvP related hexes) don't turn up until much later. You can buy a knuckle ring around the time the Urns become available, but they were not even that helpful...

    Dark Souls 2

    Of course you can react, under ideal circumstances. But looking at the regular invaded zones in this game the all have a couple things in common. They all have mobs with tons of HP, treacherous terrain (usually water levels), and tend to have the longest clears between bonfires. There are...

    Blood Bowl, Season 4

    Holy fuck was that a seal clubbing. Beast out for the season, essentially, plus another dead. I think that's the worst I have ever done in a game. Funk if you have the season wrapped up, I will just concede the last game since I doubt I will be able to put up any sort of fight against you...

    Dark Souls 2

    It is a combination of things. First, chomping a stamina herb or even slotting the Corinth ring make the number of swings uncertain, even if using the same weapon. So, picking the right window can be really difficult, unless you are constantly PvPing. Second, a lot of people just don't give a...

    Dark Souls 2

    Ok, but you are (by your own words) just showing up and burst DPSing people down and mostly invading people engaged in PvE for the quick kills. How many people in the process of clearing the game are actually even slotting anything for PvP? I seriously doubt it is even possible to gear up to...

    But why wreck all of their shit when you don't have to? That's just asshole griefing. Plus at SL200 do you even need more souls for any reason?

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah the NG+ Lost Sinner adds are basically the same pyro guys that are part of the Umbral convenant run. Their pyro spells do lots of stun and they have enough hit points to avoid getting single comboed down, like the adds on Flexile. Sinner himself is kind of a dick with his guard...

    Dark Souls 2

    Well I was high SL and just picking off things I missed the first time around and never had less than three guys invade there, all kitted out for PvP. I just cleared the other tower (Bella Sol) with my SL70ish mele guy and got invaded two three times, but I just slotted armor and mad dashed the...

    Dark Souls 2

    Well the dilemma with that battle is this: By the time you can actually fight past the grey phantom griefing, you don't really need or want anything from that fight. I guess I could just play offline for that part, but none of the rewards for that area appeal to the build I am working on right...

    Dark Souls 2

    That explains it. I did that place really late my first run through, because I was low on Phaeros stones and did not like getting chain PvPed there. I have kind of avoided it this time through because my mele build would have issues against the Gargs and I did not want anything that drops from...

    Where does that key drop exactly? I don't think I ever got it. I just mele'd him this time around and chain lightning bolted him my first playthrough.

    Dark Souls 2

    Iron King is the only fight where you are forced to know the layout of the ground, jedi style, since you can roll right into the lava dodging him. There is no other boss, optional or otherwise (except maybe the chariot) where the terrain is part of the difficulty with him. Every other boss you...
