    Paladin is considered the worse of all healers. They are insanely easy to play however lack efficiency precisely because so many of their abilities overlap and do everything at the cost of doing them well. Saying that they require a lot to get get to work doesn't eliminate you from the Lost Ark...

    Pretty much this. It's an unpopular opinion however the fact that Brelshaza hard is, you know, hard is fine by me. Yes, the mechanics are punishing and if *one* person fucks up, it can screw up the entire raid. While I'm not a particular fan of this type of design the raids are 8 man and...

    I went semi hard on D4 for the first few days but it became obvious that I wasn't really enjoying myself and waiting for a few patches of QOL stuff to come in was needed. Zelda was an incredible amount of fun (and I suspect FF16 will be as well); I simply stop doing the chores when something...

    Yeah, this was added a bit ago. They really do need a better way for people to catch up on LoS 30 -- for a returning player like @Cyni this is a huge dps loss. Elgacia exceeded my expectations by a good margin. The story was fantastic, the dungeon was absolutely epic and getting to remove one...

    RMT already exists. There were avenues for this and some of us took full advantage before the normal cease orders came from Blizzard. Booze touched on it earlier but the best items are already tradeable.

    You can get 1 shot by a fair amount of the mechanics at 65+ as well. There are a lot of ways for every class to barrier / avoid this provided you put the time into the build. That's why it's a fun encounter.

    42k consecutive users while also being #5 in play time in KR during the same time period over a year after release for an MMO while that time period also encompasses the release of a AAA ARPG that's been the most anticipated title in the last 5 years or so is 'literally a dead game'? You...

    The $70 was worth it for the launch and getting to catch up with some forum folks for 4-5 days of killing shit and enjoying the new game feel. With that being said, you are absolutely delusional if you don't feel that the drop off has been massive this weekend and indicative that this game will...

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with this and I don't believe anyone is saying that there is, albeit the thread has been going quicker than I've been following. It sounds like you're having a great time and it was well worth the cost associated for the game as a result. The leveling experience...

    Got Temerity to drop last night and I am effectively unkillable on my rogue. At 71, I can do Nightmare dungeons that are +28 without mobs being able to even break through my shield. It's absolutely broken.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Yes. It's doable 60+, the only difficulty is the final boss, which is actually a decent challenge at that level.

    Since the topic came up in Discord relating to why I enjoy LA more than D4, I'll be streaming a full day's worth of LA content for those on the fence of coming back tomorrow for the reset in Discord. A few things to note; 1- There is no longer any P2W in the game. I'm serious. You'd have to...

    Your friends are good people for pressuring you. I see no long term viability to the game however I've still had my money's worth from catching up with friends I hadn't played with in some time - there's really no reason not to enjoy this a bit and hop on Discord before the inevitable mass exodus.

    Get a Sigil for Nightmare dungeons by completing the world tree, killing a world boss, or having a friend zone you into one of there's where you'll get one to drop. After that, you're doing nightmares non stop.

    Pretty much this. These nerfs are just stupid. They're actively patching out good things and talking about how it doesn't fit their 'vision'. How much a vision where you buff shit that's below rather than nerfing and adding more goblins (not less) so people get more loot and enjoy themselves...

    I don't disagree with this opinion and I traditionally would play hardcore. The problem is Diablo's design doesn't lend itself to hardcore and they did attempt to bring some more MMO concepts to the game, they just failed at it.

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Not really sure I agree with most of this. I hit 55 last night and started doing Nightmare sigils, including ones that were +20 above my level. They were not difficult. They were not challenging. There was nothing innovative here. As an example to contrast: In Diablo IV I get a nightmare...

    Made it to level 48 and completed the capstone dungeon, which was a joke compared to how it was made out to be. My review: 1- The itemization is really good. I was surprised by this but they did an amazing job and there's good build diversility. 2- The encounter design is an absolute joke from...

    Chaos Dungeons & Guardian raids in Lost Ark are absolutely terrible. They are part of a philosophy that MMOs adopted long ago where they want people logging in every day because 'daily login metrics' and short term goals started to become more important to the genre than long-term retention...

    I accept this as a compromise by virtue of my respect of those that maintain the moral high ground of not giving Bliz money. As a result, I claim the newly cemented "Blackjack & Hookers" channel and will see you there Thursday.

    I'm disappointed here, Ut. I know I've missed out quite a bit when you've jumped into Discord but I was hoping you'd pick this up for release so that we can throw back a few and play something together. Speaking of, can we get 2-3 more channels added to Discord for launch?

    The reviews of those that have experienced end game are already out. It's exactly what was expected. You'll be farming nightmare dungeons to level up your Glyphs; boss encounters are cool but the most challenging one has 1/50th the complexity of something like Lost Ark and the game is...

    Game is the definition of a mediocre ARPG. With that being said, i'll be in Discord day 1 early access with most of you fucks in spite of that because the real value of the game is getting to play with some forum bros for a week and titles that allow for that are seldom these days.

    ...You are not looking for an MMO. The genre has never allowed individuals to 'stay competitive' while only playing a single character for a few hours a day. Individuals who play 24/7 will always have a significant advantage. Lost Ark is a million times more friendly in that regards as the...

    This is a pretty accurate take as opposed to those above who are commenting about something they haven't played in a really long time. I haven't ran into a bot in a long time, they've completely banned them and enforced it significantly for several months now. They occasionally pop back up but...

    This is creating quite an uproar for KR. It's pretty easy to understand though, the people playing on KR are mostly the intense people who love the game and were around during Brelshaza before she was nerfed 6 times. The current Western audience is hardly able to clear this Brel and we're...
