    Everything in ultimate scales up to 100, so you can't really outlvl anything, if stuff is higher than you it's just designed to be higher than you regardless. But yeah you'll get to the point where you can a lot more easily die even with resist capped and decent life, that's why you want 1 or 2...

    Grim Dawn

    Ultimate is definitely a big hurdle in terms of resists right away and that's why a lot of people stay in elite for a long time/forever because it's a lot harder to gear up properly in ultimate. Also you won't see that too much early on but the monsters hit a lot harder even with capped resists...

    This fucking Firefox or whatever it is bug where embedded youtube videos don't play directly without click the link to open them on youtube. Googled it yesterday and apparently it's also a problem on Chrome so not even sure what's going on.

    Overmelding gear is something that doesn't concern most people. Basically it's only useful when a new raid tier is released and only if you're pushing for full clear early. It lets you use the new crafted gear tier and overmeld it with materias to get an advantage on gearing up before you get...

    It's entirely optional, but it's great to have for repairing anywhere(including mid pull if you forgot and your shit breaks) as well as crafting gear for alts since the rest of the gear usually is time gated by weekly resets and such while the crafted gear is easy to get and if you skip the...

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I used to play with inverted mouse because it made the most "sense" back when I started since before FPS games I played a lot more flying simulators and stuff(Commanche and F-some number and X-wing vs Tie Fighter and so on). However I don't remember which FPS but one of them didn't have inverted...

    Monster Hunter: World

    So with the new stuff released on consoles, one interesting bit is it seems Safi basic blast weapons will be basically equal to Safi weapons. A Brachy weapon is 315 true raw with 20purple sharpness which makes it similar to a Safi with Attack VI, Attack V x2, Sharpness V x2(that's 5 true raw...

    Path of Exile

    It adds phys as chaos, orb of storms/arc don't do phys, so it doesn't do shit. Not sure where that chaos is coming from on the tooltip even, something else maybe? Unholy might is for like physical spells, BV/EK etc or the converted phys spells like wave of conviction.

    Path of Exile

    Works with spells, worth taking if you use physical spells yeah, as long as you can reliably proc it. Even without any specific chaos scaling it's still going to add decent damage.

    I somehow got all the lances already but I haven't played lance in a while, haven't upgraded them or redone my set, so far I've only done sticky LBG(which was mostly for farming, it's not finished it's like Attack III-IV in all slots instead of VI+V) and SnS, redid my armor stuff and what not...

    Base artillery is 3, if you have 4 you have the set bonus, you just, you know, need to have 5 artillery equipped. Slot in an additional deco, it only increases the cap, not the actual amount.

    Grim Dawn

    The gear has "tiers", and while at low lvl the tiers are very close to each other, as you level up they get more spaced out so that happens. I forgot the exact tiers but it's something like 50, 68, 74, 82, 94 and 100, so when your level is "inbetween" you'll get gear from the next tier you can't...

    That's how Cyclone was in PoE until Legion and the melee rework(or maybe it was the league before), so only like last year. People fucking hated it cause it felt like shit and you had to keep your cursor close to your char to do minimal spins and shit. It was terrible and I assume if they could...

    2nd health augment is shit, better use affinity, attack or elemental depending on the weapon type. I've had mixed groups, but doesn't matter too much even with bad players it's easily clearable in 2 runs like KT. It does suck that so many people don't seem to care about breaking parts at all...

    I think you could if you have the pob of that build, the medium clusters in that have an empty socket, simply add the socket then make a custom jewel that has all the stats that aren't counted in that cluster. It will be 1 point more but just remove one of the notable to balance the overall cost...

    Not sure what you mean but KT was easy too. You'll sometimes wipe because you have some real retards in your team but most of the time it's easy even in pubs with pretty bad players(as long as they heal themselves). Safi isn't much different in that regard. Big positive compared to KT though is...

    If you have the other expansions then you might as well wait and keep playing. If you're at Garuda you're like, I don't know, 60+ hours away from Shadowbringers just spamming the story or something like that. That story is LONG. So assuming you have Heavensward and Stormblood already there's...

    Next expansion is around summer 2021, so over a year, although the final content patch should be around april. We're basically about in the middle of the current expansion. Sales could be around the corner though, so might be worth waiting if you have something else to play. Could also try...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Well they do that shit on PC too so I don't know how true it is but we'll see. Still don't think the xbox being capped at 2tb internal is such a great idea and then the issue that the special xbox 1tb SSD they sell you is some overpriced shit like the PS Vita proprietary memory cards.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    Lineage 2 is still running too iirc though and is actually relatively popular, they even ported it to mobile somewhat recently. A lot of the sequels are just bad games that are worse than the originals though so that's kinda the problem. Isn't just a korean problem though, Asheron's Call 2 was...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I doubt it'll be that big of a deal, loadings feel like they have diminishing returns, once you're down to like 5secs loading, making them 3seconds instead is nice but also kinda whatever. As long as you're not waiting 20-40secs like HDD loadings, I don't think it's too important. Xbox looks...

    If you're not on steam you can check for physical versions and stuff. Looking at Amazon.fr it's 18euros atm for the PC disc version. But yeah the digital never goes down, just sales every now and then. And the steam version is the same but with less sales.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I edited it but it's not a generic slot per se, they'll be testing commercial drives and release a compatibility list, because they have various requirements like speed(need to be PCIe 4.0 at least) and obviously size(I assume they'll have one of the smaller slots instead of the full length ones).

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Hmm if the PS5 has a NVMe generic slot that's pretty big compared to the proprietary 1TB only slot on the xbox. Obviously you can just plug some shit via USB but being able to add a 2tb(or more) NVMe directly inside and not have a disk floating around, plus the obvious bandwith limitations of...

    Doom: Eternal

    I don't like him as a streamer, but his success I think is understandable, he's been streaming for a long time, he streams quite a lot and regularily and he plays a lot of the newer games and many genres that aren't otherwise played nearly as much, he's kind of like the "niche" game streamer...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Yeah augmenting armor only increases the upgrade cap so you get more defense, it's pretty good once you get to tempered elder dragons hunting though since those hurt a lot and with normal defenses you can get one shot by some stuff. To augment armor you need generic tier 3(elder dragons and...

    Not 100% sure that's what you mean but at the bottom of the tree there's a dropdown list that says Default and if you click it you get Manage Trees. This lets you add new trees. You can use that for example to compare 2 different pathing and see the differences which is useful for endgame...

    I see there's a new instant dodge mechanic tied to the yokai you're using, does that mean they removed the R1 dodge at the end of combos to regenerate stamina and dispel yokai fields there was in the first game? These doubled as dodges for certain weapons once you unlocked the passives for them...

    If you check the transmuting lady, any materials in the list means you already have killed it. Note that killing tempered monsters also unlock the normal material, so you only need to kill that if you want to limit how much stuff you're killing. After that you kinda need to make a list. There...

    Every god has several movement skills, although they differ in how they move, some are not targeted but have lower range/higher cooldowns. Also iirc they can be dropped in your shared stash so you just need a char in each faction to get them all. You also get the better higher level versions...

    Grim Dawn

    Yeah I mentionned that quickly but it's very expensive to do, so you need to spend some time farming. That said I haven't played since FG's release and they added a new dungeon in there so maybe it drops some of the rare materials you needed to do the recipe which would definitely help. It's...

    Grim Dawn

    The DLCs are definitely very good, although you could just play through the base game first and see what's up, but the game improves a fair bit with expansion content, both for additional classes and just because the DLC content is harder and more fun as a result. Item droprate stuff is popular...
