Finally finished my IE campaign as Kairos. Was really fun, although kinda long but that's pretty standard for those campaigns. Writeup of the campaign: Had a hard start and couldn't expand fast because I was surrounded by assholes and they kept moving in everytime I went to slap one, in...

It's not the price, it's the time and will to play it, while I do buy games "in advance" for when I want to play them, I don't buy everything I have an interest in right away and have had stuff on my wishlist for years just as a reminder if I get bored and looking for something.

I played the first one, an eternity ago, and only for a few hours, which was fine cause it was a pirated copy because that's so old that was when I was still pirating games a fair amount. I do want to pick the pirate one(the arr ye landluber one, not the download your car one) some day though...

Not sure about the music, don't see any videos about it but might find one if you look. Unreals are usually harder than the extremes because they're rescaled very close to current level so they're more like min ilvl extremes(which very few people do since you can get better gear in the patch...

Yeah and since Savage was delayed, you don't even lose any time from that and people are more prone to spending their money "preparing" rather than just going in with meh gear and getting some lucky drops and not buying stuff. It also makes scrip gear more relevant rather than just a way to...

Oh yeah obviously but I meant just for doing normal HQ stuff, just need to craft my own gear and stuff like that. It is a nice move though, moving the truly hard stuff to specific recipes and making everything else piss easy to craft, at least for people like me who just want to craft their own...

Man they sure made crafting even easier somehow. Scrip gear has materia slots now which is pretty crazy, I don't even need to craft the crafting gear anymore, can just min stat with scrip gear and 100% HQ anyway, with barely any materias worth. Usually I'd have to buy scrip gear to craft the...

Alexander was soloable last expansion as WAR, so should be soloable by more classes now too, don't know about BLM though, there's a lot of tank busters. And yeah can make decent money off scrolls if you can be bothered. Faster on BLU though usually, cause you can final sting stuff for like...

It does for some stuff because the scaling is weird, but iirc yeah not for ARR, ARR is actually easier than it was before or something. But HW scaling isn't the same(I think you have less hp in unsynced Alexander than unsynced Coil for example for whatever reason) and not too sure about SB. But...

They are regular strength aren't they? Or do you mean the AI will try to attack a settlement without accounting for towers making the defending army stronger than they are? I can see that, although I've found the AI also does the opposite sometimes, I've had them spend 3 turns weakening my...

I found in my current playthrough that early game the settlements towers were really fucking annoying and got me to lose/almost lose some fights, but as the game progressed they kinda stopped mattering. Partly because I can send flying units to destroy them quickly if needed, and partly because...

I think Empowering Minions doesn't actually grant you more stuff from the additional mods, maybe? The mod itself is the one that generates the other mods(when you kill the minions, the archnemesis gets an additional mod) so I think it just counts as its own stuff+whatever other mod was on there...

Since they did the stat squish I'm not entirely sure, but in poetics gear from early ShB should be fine. If you're one of the shittier classes for this(BLM for example) then maybe end of ShB yeah. A bunch was soloable at the end of Stormblood before the stat squish but not sure now, and some of...

Hmm so after a few more turns as expected the endgame event popped, spent the 10 turns clearing out some lizards out of my island and slapping tiqtakto and teclis off my shit and sacked/razed their stuff salting earth style so they wouldn't bother me, raised an additional army, positionned...

I believe they did, I've seen people mention it a few times.

Raids are slightly harder than the early story trials, but about the same as the story trials later on, the ARR/HW trials were kinda designed to be super simple but as they add more mechanics to them they get more in line with normal raids. You can queue in DF for them and most boil down to...

Well it's "beta", it's missing some stuff and some stuff is kinda bugged, hopefully they'll fix most things at some point. Started an IE campaign, haven't played TW3 before that and haven't played TW in quite a while, took a few runs to even get started properly, sadly it still was pretty...

Yeah I know, I made a post about that before release and how dumb it was, there were additional ways to get exalteds sure, but that only meant there were more in circulation and unless you were specifically building around farming ex yourself, it was just much more simple to buy your exalts to...

I mean to be fair, you needed to trade for exalts to buy stuff too most of the time. Raw exalt drops weren't so common you could entirely buy your gear with them directly, usually you converted shit to chaos, then bought some exalts to buy your stuff. Not saying the drops aren't worth this...

Just use this strat lol

That actually looks kinda nice, moving a bunch of the loot on the boss(and archnemesis rares) instead of white mobs. Overall their original idea of removing the hidden modifiers on league mechanics that made juicers stack everything together for big returns wasn't bad, but the fact they tried to...

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3298433 Big backpedaling

The point I saw people make about this change isn't that coloring harvests were super OP or super useful, it's that even though it was purely a small convenience thing, it was still removed for whatever reason. Why remove something if it's a bit useful but not strong? Anyway don't think I've...

Well yeah it's even worse than divine was before the patch, since unlike divine the effect on the orb is pretty garbage. They're basically only for throwing at random rares that don't have too much value to see if you get anything useful on top, and if not well whatever.

Well it's more like bad tanks rejoice, I've never had an issue even if I pulled a few things(or everything if the tank was shit) by just sitting on the tank at the end for the aoe to pull off me. Once in a while though you'd have the shitty tank clicking stuff off because they couldn't be...

There are "open" qualifiers yeah like every year. A bunch of teams are automatically qualified based on DPC points this year, the rest have to go through the open qualifiers, which is basically a big tournament(or well one big tournament per region) with every team that didn't qualify. 1 spot...

That's pretty standard for alpha though, it's filled up at first then once people have done leveling/tested the new stuff, they just don't keep playing for nothing, until there's more patches with more content and what not. Nov 28th sounds real fucking early for a release though since beta...

This one is mostly the same concept but not as obvious, the dog one from last page or whatever was pretty fucking obvious though since even small details were the same.

There was a pretty big thread on the frontpage of reddit a few days ago about how melee is still perfectly fine, it's just not worth doing unless you really want to play melee, which is basically the state of melee. You have to invest in all the random shit everyone also has to invest...

Really old recipe iirc, like beta old maybe, but hasn't been useful in years cause either the item is too cheap and it's just faster to buy one with good rolls, or it's too expensive to use 3 to do the same as a single divine which tend to be super cheap. With divines being assfucked next league...

I mean it is relevant, a lot(every?) blizzard employee gets invites to give out. Back in the days, I got alpha F&F invites to vanilla/burning legion/wotlk because a friend worked in QA too, and that was just a random shmuck job that wasn't directly related to wow either. Every Blizzard employee...

Yeah definitely dragoon idle stance and it doesn't even look like a sword, thus maiming set, which most of the time shares model with tank gear.

That's just the different type of armors though, same as usual sets? Unless you mean another pic. On this pic, you have healer gear being purple while casting is red(same model as usual), scouting is purple while aiming is red(same model), tank is red whilemaiming is purple(same model) and then...

Right but that's 6.2, and yeah I'm fully expecting the normal version to have no glow. Weapons are what I mostly want though, some of these look nice and there's likely going to be a few more that look good in the ones not shown.

You have to do savage for the armor too, this isn't the tome gear.

Quite a lot of new content, they're usually meaty side zones with plenty of new gear and stuff, not really many/any features. Think like adding another side path like Consecrated+Haligtree. They're usually very good, in some cases people consider them better than the base game even(Dark Souls 2...

New savage gear btw I really don't want to have to do savage again but I also really want some of this stuff like those monk claws and healer robe. Think maybe I'll wait until 6.3 to do savage so it's easier with max gear and stuff, we'll see I guess.

Elden Ring DLC should be somewhat soon-ish? Might be winter though, no news so far but would kinda line up with their usual DLC release pace around november.

Maybe, but won't be soon. This gets asked pretty often but they don't have any incentive to do this until the sales are down enough to warrant it, and they likely wouldn't do it until all War 3 DLCs are done(which probably won't be until late 2023 at best).

Iirc and it's been a while, they can break if you're the agressor, same as karma penalties?
