Yea it's absolutely a meta thing. This era of classic is well and truly solved and almost anyone still playing these things knows the optimal routes etc, so the the player base being 40% bards/neros/mages isn't at all surprising. The only real issue is how badly bards fuck up every outdoor zone...

Yea I took player ones a few times before the big CT spawned cause I was bound in fuck nowhere still

Someone bind me in Qeynos I lost my level at this stupid GM event Also, 10,000 ice comets a second hitting CT in highpass:

I'm firmly in the camp of limit it to 4 like wizard quads or just remove it all together, but for some reason there are legions of boomers that defend it to the death cause it's 'classic'.

Alright hit me with your best emergency cash farm. I can't fuckin afford my new pet reeeee

I have no idea where the insistence to keep it in the game comes from Literally makes many areas of the game unplayable depending on if a bard is there or not

Yea those kinds of quests are the only way to level right now. Any zone under level 20 has more players than mobs in currently and is just a waste of time.

It's probably actually faster to give up the 10 levels I've got on this gnome is the hilarious part. Fangs/lightstones/rabid pelts have all got to be just such absurd xp it'd more than make up for the time I've wasted. But then I have to be a lame human

There just aren't any options for the like 1-10 grind is the main issue. Newbie yards are the only real play until ~4ish, and from there the tiny specific pockets of level appropriate mobs are very small and heavily contested right now. Obviously going to crushbone or whatever is gonna suck...

Unfortunately I was too late to the party and they've already giga nerfed mail delivery payouts

Quoting myself here cause I'm a fuckin prophet Game is bordering on unplayable at level 5 currently as there exists roughly 5 players per level appropriate mob on the entire continent of Faydwer.

Yea 1080p in a window has been the only way for me to play so far. 1440p works if you alt+enter to fullscreen it but something is off with the mouselook and it's all jittery and nausea inducing. I really had forgotten just how painful classic skill gain rates were. I may not actually be able to...

The loot/itemization problem is the exact same thing that is crippling D4 currently. They tried to build a super RNG system of acquisition similar to ARPGs, but forgot the vital aspect of ARPGs where things that drop are useful to *someone*, even if it's not you or your current character. That...

It's not just a you problem, it's a game problem. The talent tree looks cool, but should have existed last year when the game launched. It's nice that they are working on stuff still I guess, but the game is still completely hamstrung by some truly baffling core itemization and design decisions.

Trying to fix the game via matchmaking is a losing plan. The issue is and always has been gear/itemization. Tarkov and other extraction games like Hunt etc are able to mostly skate on gear disparity because they are full on FPS and they have the great headshot equalizer - while you may be at...

Long as fuck but pretty hilarious/interesting. I hadn't really been paying attention to the depths of insanity that the GME weirdos were still clinging to, much less the Bed Bath & Beyond implosion lol

Naw none of that exists outside the official TLP servers. P99 etc has never had it either.

So what is the plan for classic just having nowhere near enough mobs to support any kind of healthy population? Do people just not remember the days of solb/lguk having 0 mobs alive at any time of day and wait lists 20 people deep to get added to a group. I haven't logged in but if Zaide is...

Holy fuck did they cuck summons vs ubers in this lol. I'm not sure it's actually possible given how much damage they do to your mobs. I'm at +16 skills and baal deletes the entire army in one cold wave, or diablo in one firestorm, etc. Literally cannot summon them fast enough to keep anything...

The problem is gonna be keep the normies interested. They don't actually want or like the PvP aspect and just want to grind skeletons or whatever and whine endlessly on reddit about how the rogue with a purple rapier killed them. It's a very weird dichotomy cause the game needs a player base of...

Latest patch is preeeeeeetty good. The gear curve is overall in a much better place with the implicit stat scaling now and greater random availability from merchants. The fighter/cleric damage reduction curve probably needs to come down a bit, but definitely a big step in the right direction...

I can gigablast acients or anything in hell with this setup currently if any of you noobs get stuck

Started summon druid to try and get in some early uber kills while they are still profitable. No crazy drops yet, but some decent meat and potatoes gear to assemble a hoto. I'm getting really cucked by the popularity of this build tho with people wanting a mal+ for raw summoning skillers...

Oh shit is it today? Just in time for me to be fairly bored with the poe league.

Correct. Bolting another +25% more betterer on to items every expansion and just incrementing another 150 AAs up was the most unimaginative bullshit, and it really starting to appear at a time when WoW was really taking off. Just an absolute death knell for the game.

Pretty standard corpo non-answer

That's exactly my point - sanctum is providing proper mapping strategy levels of profit for 0 effort so every normie in existence is flooding the market with currency as opposed to the like 10% of the player base that mapped properly before.

Yea sanctum prints all currency. It's pretty interesting cause when you really break it down on like a profit/hour it's not really any better than actual proper focused mapping strategies, but the issue is almost no one really does that and even normies can run sanctums and see 4 divines shit...

Yea with sanctum/trials printing divines like they do you have to buy up mirror cards or apothecaries or some similar card to not get absolutely crushed by inflation daily.

Pfff I got my own trailer payments to make, you think I'm made of money

All the real guilds tried to play nice on sleeper and some box fags killed the last warder at 5am. Booooooooo

Yea I shelved the trauma jugg after a few more hours leveling. It's just not gonna be worth the squeeze in the end, and basically having to use frostbreath means your base attack speed is so bad it's never really gonna feel good. Raider time it is. Maybe rakiatas? Probably lightning strike...

Yea the wording on their new pricing makes it sound so laughably bad/unworkable I feel like this is just them burying the lede to then walk it all back to a 'more fair' model, which was their actual goal from the outset.

Just getting to red maps with trauma jugg nonsense now. So far it feels like so much work to get damage out of an otherwise mediocre setup? Glacial hammer is the most melee you can possibly be, and even with a shitload of extra strikes and the splash mastery its clear is complete ass...

0 chance Tarkov can switch engines If the pricing is as bad as it sounds and actually sticks Tarkov will shut down before they try and refactor to Unreal or something.

Nope only video I've been able to find even mentioning it, which makes me really doubt it's actually working reliably. There's still a ton of lightning strike players and someone by now would have noticed that it's doing 5x more damage than it should.

@Deathwing This dude is able to reproduce it as well, I really don't know what to believe anymore

Doctor cards in the harvest card doubler like a true degen It's done now:

Remember boys always gamble you never lose
