Well, there is a pretty stark difference between corruption 100 and 800 in experience gain, favor gain, and loot drops. That's why it would feel bad playing a bugged build that can push much higher than otherwise.

Where would you say they go from here? Release 1.0 numbers on items being multiple hundreds of %s. They've kind of backed themselves into a corner very early in the games life. It doesn't really matter if they don't nerf mid cycle because the next cycle will feel terrible. Since monoliths...

I think the biggest issue is that you can get so many "more damage" multipliers, flat damage gets insane. And then you just stack ward as your main defensive layer. Ridiculous scaling is too easy to achieve. Warlocks being able to scale damage with suffixes as well as the actual damage scaling...

I was purposely avoiding the ward stuff because I realized it's likely to get nerfed and I didn't want to push 1200+ corruption due entirely to a defensive mechanic likely to get neutered and then have subsequent cycles feel bad because 600ish corruption is the new norm.

Yea the trade system itself is not very friendly for people who don't play this game 40+ hours a week. You can raise your favor by listing items for sale, they don't even need to sell, you just need to list

I had watched Kingstown and Tulsa King on some free month deal a while back, I'll probably watch S2 of Tulsa King but Kingstown lost me.

Khane verdict time. I started watching Evil. Made it about 3 episodes in before giving up. Pure trash. Not sure what is going on in the thread dedicated to that show but it's very divisive and anyone saying it's great TV simply can't be trusted. It's terrible. Unwatchable. Then I tried Joe...

Fair.

I really wish those stupid shows didn't encourage people to fake disabilities to win sympathy.

Well I know I wi... wait.. what? You tricked me into saying that!!!

Man, Paramount streaming app and interface suck. It doesn't save info on what episodes I've already watched, it almost never remembers where I paused something to resume it, and there is no "watch next" option while watching an episode. Good lord it's bad

No I'm talking about things like BPEL

Go straight to empowered

No. You work in telecom right? But you were helpdesk most of your career and don't have nearly the experience that a bunch of the rest of us have with actual software development right? These GUI driven development IDEs that are basically "design mode" Dreamweaver for other languages have been...

Sorry but most people enjoy this, and one of the most popular builds on LE already is falconer explodey ballistas which do exactly that. You may not enjoy it, but you are in an extreme minority. This has always been a defining feature of ARPGs

I think a lot of it has to do with the lack of true repeatability and "control" over what you are running when compared to other ARPGs. I'd say they probably have plans for a system that allows players to, say, control which types of echos spawn, etc, but building corruption is a slow ,random...

You do realize there are many examples of these so called flow chart based IDEs and that developers, largely, prefer text based programming languages so these other technologies are usually niche, right?

Finally hitting the endgame wall again. Got quite a bit more out of it this time though. Something still feels like it's "missing" though. Could play other builds but rebuilding corruption and unlocking blessings again is a slog.

Just tried to have dinner at a local place that labels itself rustic Italian cuisine and bakery. And, I learned that they definitely make their own bread. I know this because they served me a sandwich with "bread" that still had raw dough in the middle. How the fuck do you cut into bread, see...

It's account wide but it'll take significantly longer if you're switching characters because of the exp scaling with higher corruption. I was level 98 when I hit rank 8. Some of the streamers who have been playing for years did it in about 30 hours, efficiency and all that. But that's still a...

Yea ailment removal is very much "who cares" to me. Especially since a lot of the enemies channel stuff. Oh well. I was watching some streamers play that busted warlock ward build and the actual ward values are closer to 200k, the UI just doesn't show anything over like 69000 (nice), so then it...

One thing I haven't seen, or maybe missed... but is there any way to get ailment avoidance/immunity in this game? I'm really sick of getting chilled/slowed.

There "bare bones" are literally Diablo 3. They added on to D3, didn't even change the code for stash/inventory. Pathetic company and pathetic game.

I think they need to smooth the curve out a bit for the faction grind. It took me ~50 hours to get to rank 8, which on CoF isn't that big a deal because you're getting rewards every rank but for Merchant it kinda sucks cuz you can't get what you really want (LP Uniques) until then and 50 hours...

Yea there are also a few skill points in Warlock/Acolyte skills that proc skeletons and other summons as well. Lots of ways to do it.

You can do monoliths as soon as you get to the end of time (which is I think around act 4 of the campaign usually?). Monos should be pretty easy for you and you'll get good exp and a fair amount of upgrades.

The lore videos are way, way, way more interesting because of how hard to understand the lore of the game is. This game is such a goddamn masterpiece.

This is a fair point, but I'm not sure it's actually 40% though because the prisons themselves are meant to be damage soaks, and if they die that quick what's the point (meaning they need to have high HP values to be useful as intended defensively)? I'm more inclined to believe the health values...

Here, I'll post it again, because he's doing 800 corruption monos as if they are 0 corruption

It's not technically a bug. The bone prisons that bone curse spawns count as minions, and if you scale minion health, and can turn minion health into ward.... well.... yep. Well, maybe the bone prisons counting as minions are a bug? A lot of different builds are abusing it. I don't really know...

Nah, the ward stuff doesn't rely on high hp. The Warlock stuff in particular is just stupid. I linked a video a page or so back, dude has like 1800hp but is hitting 80k+ ward with bone curse + profane veil. And you can do that like every 4 seconds or so. The problem is Ward scaling is basically...

They need to make some major changes to a lot of their systems. The idiotic scaling with uncapped res. The low life benefits. Ward. These are only some of the things people have been leaning into but there are a lot of other aspects of scaling in this game that will continue to be abused because...

Health is important in any ARPG but this game's defensive layers are kinda busted. If you look at how Armour works it should be possible to get to some really stupid mitigation numbers and Ward is just.... broken. And once you get to a gearing point where you can abuse ward health doesn't matter...

The factions are just part of the game, they work anywhere.

A LeBaron convertible will really bring out the full power of the new hairdo. He might actually break all the women in Canada.

GGG also releases more content every league than most companies release in multiple years. You get your money's worth buying stash tabs, even if you spend $20 every league.

Its not an apples to apples comparison. GGG needs to make money somehow and the stash tabs and affinities are just better. They also persist from league to league whereas in this game, presumably, you'll need to unlock them every time, which is a minor inconvenience.

Think this will be my next project

To give you guys an idea of how stupid Rank 10 CoF double prophecy + double reward lens can get:
