Perhaps it's not worth the fuckery to the overall economy, but ~100c/div does feel nice. 100div for a Mageblood feels even more nice. Farmed up my first one this league. I was gifted one last league, didn't feel as impactful. I don't know how hard it is for GGG to tune the price, but I'm...

I have a QNAP TS251, pretty old at this point but still works ok. One of the drives in my RAID1 configuration is sprouting bad sectors and SMART warnings. Can I just physically replace the bad drive and the RAID1 configuration will automatically copy over without data loss? I mean, I guess...

For shits and giggles, I decided to plug my Sennheiser 650's directly into the back of my computer. I was under the impression that you needed an amp for high impedance headphones, but the motherboard is having no issues driving them. Sucks that I don't have(nor plan to buy) the audio...

Brotato. Might as well start with the best.

Magneto probably got a better booty. So tired of seeing manbutt in modern television. Especially for how little of a shit female viewers seem to care.

Probably similar, but not as beneficial, to using integrated graphics vs a dedicated GPU. Do you know what hardware DAC your motherboard has? Or is it being done in software? What's the frequency response of the output? Do you trust the driver implementation of a manufacturer that likely...

The consistent move would be to leave it in for the rest of the league since I'm pretty certain this was caused by the dumb fucking idea of letting wisdom scrolls work on corrupted items. Because god forbid you be able to tell the value of something without picking it up. Still bitter about...

Because of the capital U, I keep reading it as Urination. I think that's fitting.

I'm just speculating! Fuck if I know how this stupid economy actually works. I'm about halfway there myself, finally settled on....CoC DD. Boring, I know, but I can't ignore how much the build lets you build into defenses. I would have preferred the Poet's Pen Squire version, but that build...

Wonder if prices will adjust upwards since they just nerfed yet another T17 strat.

No, I knew that, I was just being stupid. I thought Kathleen fired them from GoT. Either way, it sounds like Benioff and Weiss have underperformed on Three Body Problem as well.

lel, I misread astro's comment, my bad.

WTF does Kathleen Kennedy have to do with Game of Thrones?

There's nothing wrong with most of the major story points in the latter seasons. The only exception being the Night King needing a dragon to get past the wall. The buildup and execution of those story points is what sucked. And most people still think Martin could do that better, hence the...

Yes, a misuse of the term. Note that I was comparing the Expanse, Song of Ice and Fire, and Malazan, which span multiple genres. I guess just fiction? But that seems too generic.

I don't regret for reading the series. The first three are probably the best scifi ever written. And this is coming from a Malazan homer. And I'm pretty sure he had a hand in making sure the Expanse was made. If he wants people to stop bugging him, all he has to do is threaten to find a...

It can be used for other stuff, but headphones is the common use. The inside of a case is noisy, from an EM perspective. Utilizing your mobo's DAC opens you up to that noise. Additionally, the mobo manufacturer might have slapped on a functional but cheap DAC.

Where ass?

I don't even see a Hel 2 on their product page. Beyond just giving Schiit more money, it looks like they designed/licensed their own USB chip on the newer versions of the Modi. IDK, seems excessive nor would I expect an accoustics equipment company to even be good at that(chip design). I...

Having to support those idiots with lifetap would be a dealbreaker, I'd just toss the gem at that point. I thought I read in patch notes some point back they changed charge monkeys(or spectres?) to not be reliant on their mana pool for abilities, but I can't find it. Arena Masters are almost...

Charge monkeys are unreliable. I play minion builds very rarely. In fact, Holy Relic on Conviction is an attack build using minion scalars, so it only half counts. I found the monkeys, with meat shield, did not reliably put up their charges. I think it's some combination of stuff dying too...

Any recommendations for a DAC? My Schiit Modi 2 will still respond to 5 minutes under a portable heater but it's getting too warm to use that anymore. My Schiit Magni is still working fine, but doesn't need to be compatible with that.

lol, someone get audited by microsoft?

Offerings should be instant cast with a cooldown so that they can be automated. I know this doesn't solve the corpse generation part of the equation, but couldn't see how to make those supported by Automation either. I gave the Poet's Pen - Squire version of DD a try. It's really fun...

I tried the BLS version, largely agree with this assessment. Though, I didn't take it into T17s. I had issues with the clear where you had to overcommit per pack in order to get consistent clear. Higher damage per hit or pops, I theorize, would lead to better clear. Bouncy pconc had this...

I'm sure you can get 4+ with some amount of aoe and boss arena. I was testing on kuduku, which is relatively open for this skill. The question is whether it's worth it. Wish I had tested this last league. Aoe might help with clear? Or it might hurt? Idk, the targeting was weird. I think the...

Did some self poison testing, thought you might be interested in the results. The base area of the skill seems to be equal to 1/0 blade blast. I counteracted 50% more aoe on the skill with a conc effect and blood and sand in blood stance. If you aim behind the target, you can get 3 hits...

I did some PoBing myself, Brutus Lead Sprinkler because I'm a miser and don't like investing in builds until they feel good. https://pobb.in/N1NCJUVYeaZf I actually have some free gem sockets, I think that's a first this league. Not sure what to put in besides some low value shit like Momentum...

That's like saying something is more edible than rat poison.

Let me see if I have this correct. You aim behind the boss, the travel hits the target. The first eruption hits the target. It travels to some random place and erupts. Pessimistically, the second travel and eruption could hit the target, but probably won't. The third eruption targets the...

Maybe jank was the wrong word. I'm not sure what to call it when I'll never play a bow build unless I can get consistent +200% movement speed. The movement skills available to bow skills are deal breakers for me. I need to be doing *something* between packs besides jogging. Once you...

Is that where you have to aim just behind the target, kinda like tornado shot? It's a bit annoying that I recently came to the realization that the large majority of my PoBing centers around eliminating jank. Smooth movement skills, not standing around too long, not too many skills to press...

Lancing Steel of Spraying. As a damage skill, not a trigger skill. How dumb is this idea? I was trying to come up with a build that fit all these criteria: Leap Slam or Whirling Blades with at least *some* attack speed scaling. Clearing potential greater than "melee + extra strikes" Tanky...

32-bits ought to be enough for anyone.

Is that a yes or a no?

What do you mean, you want a commodity market for exchanging currency? IDK, I'm not saying what you're mentioning isn't an issue, but I feel it's a bit orthogonal. It's like paying for your can of Red Bull with a $100 bill. The current PoE economy incentives assholes, more so than usual. And...

I gave Tucker ~40m. He wasn't what I was expecting based on the stereotype in the media, but it wasn't a great conversation that this thread portrayed either. I don't begrudge his opinion on the atomic bomb usage during WW2, but I think it's quite negative that he seemed dismissive of all the...

Worst part about this economy. Hi, I'd like to buy your <item> for X chaos. Send invite. Y chaos change please.

I certainly hope so, because I don't know shit! I was being acerbic, I apologize. I don't think Adorned is good for the game and I was perhaps reacting to that.
