    So I just 6L an Inpulsa. Any recommendations on a build to try?

    Path of Exile

    I played EE Cyclone a couple of leagues back and I just couldn't get into it as the movement/gameplay just didn't seem quite right hence not feeling very good to me at least. I dropped it to use a pure MS w/ Ancestral Call which really didn't require much tweaking, and honestly still didn't...

    This is a load of shit. I know there is no such thing as a truly free market in the world, but GGG knowing that a ban like this could cause such a seismic shift in currency/economy this far in the league is just retarded. I want to be clear that I'm not defending the exorbitant EX costs which...

    So I got my first raw Exalt drop in this league this AM running a map before heading into the office. Exalts are over 180? What in the shit? Am I rich?

    Honestly, when I walk into a public place with my mesh riding jacket carrying my helmet, I agree 100%. I get looked at like some anomaly or curiosity from primarily non-riders. I totally get it and I do interchange w/ a full face as well, especially on longer rides that involve lots of...

    So I average MAYBE 15-20 hours a week for the first few weeks and I feel like that is a relatively common number. I get that this game doesn't want to be D3 and essentially hand you shit like killing Shaper/Uber Whatever, but if you are not farming currency in some shape or form at some point...

    Yeah, All this talk about wearing "proper" gear just validates that I'm not the only one. So a few weeks back I saw this fool, shorts, sleeveless tank top and flip flops (of course no helmet of gloves) driving through an intersection on a cruiser looking at a cell phone in his hand. I wish I...

    I haven't played for a couple of days, but I'm running a Solar Guards build as recommended and i'm having decent success. You think running a Tabula is better than a 5L Mortis which I am currently using. They cost around 40C now.

    SWTOR

    I came back to this game a couple of years ago after playing a couple months at release. The graphics and game-play looked and felt like shit. The cut-scene/intro cinematics though, now that was some top notch stuff. I think we have the technology now to make games that look and "play" like that.

    RIP Bourdain

    I think that was the first thing in many people's mind (going out David Caridine style). At first couldn't stand him as I thought he was a pretentious dick, but he grew on me overtime and I am truly saddened by the news. With that said, leaving a 11 year old daughter behind...fuck him.

    There really isn't any strategy for anything T-10 or lower IMO. Just find a way to complete them all (buying some of the harder to drop ones/uniques), unless you have some crazy complex mapping strategy. After that point things do branch out really in what you want to accomplish, but as a new...

    So I'm thinking I'll do a summoner build this time. Never done one before. Any particular guides/ones you particular liked? Ideally I'd like to take this to Shaper, but not a requirement as I usually make 2 builds a league.

    It seems like most of the people (well the frequent posters) all prefer the more "sporty" bikes rather than a pure cruiser style. All about personal preference, just an observation. I have a Suzuki M50 as my first/starter bike and so far it's been pretty good. Just wish it had a little more...

    Borderlands 2

    So I recently bought this off of Steam in a recent sale (base game plus a bunch of DLCs). Pretty fun game. I take it Ele weapons are the way to go. Any tips or tricks? For bosses, it's pretty much been me kiting dropping DoTs on them ala Necro style.

    So I played a KB/Barrage miner in the Bestiary league, was decent, but detonating the mines separately just felt clunky even w/ totems and CWDT. However with Arc, I might give this a whirl again...

    So I took my first "longer" trip this past weekend (about 100 miles in total) trying to work my way up gradually. This entailed driving on the Interstate (I-94) in the Twin Cities for a few miles which I've never done before. I've ridden on the highway (both single and 2 lane) but never on a...

    Very on the fence about this one. I mean I watched some streams too and it looks decent, but the idea of base building/Minecraft game play really doesn't do much for me, so this is probably a pass.

    So I'm probably jumping the gun a bit as I'm still such a novice rider, but I bought a Bluetooth headset for my helmet and a USB charger for my phone for the "longer" rides I plan to take. Anyone else do this? I already bought the stuff, so not looking for recommendations on the equipment...

    Yep. I never really buy any "supporter" pack across any game, but GGG put out so much content that it was pretty easily justified for me. Honestly, I'm not disappointed or angry as it's just business, but with this new cash infusion, they better put out some damn near AAA quality shit, or at...

    Thanks for the advice all. The speedometer thing really piqued my interest and doing some quick Googling, I'm not the first one to notice this with the M50, or most bikes from what I read for that matter.

    This has to be one of the best games I have played in my entire gaming life. If you don't own a PS4, go buy one, it's that good. The game is more than what I had expected and my expectations were pretty damn high. 11 out of 10.
