    Release is global on PC, don't bother trying VPN shenanigans or whatever.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    We need some DLSS benchmarks. RTX benchmarks at native 4k resolution without DLSS are a useless metric.

    They really need to resolve Kaladin and Shallan's issues at some point, because yeah, it's dragging on. I get it, he wants to show that it's a challenge for them to reach each Ideal because of their baggage. Let's be fair, if they were more balanced in their head and heroic, they wouldn't have...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I've got all of them except PAL. Well, GNB is actually a bit more challenging rotation wise if you want to do good DPS. WAR is "INFURIATE -> FELCLEAVE GO BRRRRRR" on the other hand.

    Preload available on GOG Galaxy for me.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Whelp, got dragged back in by a friend wanting to create a chill static for this tier. Time to gear up I guess. Thinking on going Warrior, how have they been lately? What abour DRK? I'd do GNB but kinda like my braindead specs for prog.

    I'd love to play prot paly in dungeons, but the idea of being kicked for shit like not knowing the route on your first run of a dungeon or shit like that makes me avoid it. So instead I just switch to ret and eat the queue anyway.

    Yeah, it's still the OG one. Canonically, old races DK were turned before WOTLK, while allied races DK were turned recenlty so they get the really short intro with Bolvar and that's it.

    They removed rep requirements for allied races, so you just need to finish up the required quest lines : - Suramar for Nightborne (don't know if some of the quests are still gated behind rep gates though) - Argus for Void Elves (easy enough, no gating here that I remember) - Voldun for Vulpera...

    Well, Night Fae is also really relevant to an ongoing plot point :

    It's Thorgast, that's the whole point, getting lucky enough to get the good powers that synegize to create an OP monstrosity.

    Been a really slow read for me lately, still barely past 50% of the book, and I have to agree that the Venli flashbacks put me to sleep every fucking time. Like, I drop the book and go do something else everytime there is one.

    Worgen running wild also works. It's total bullshit.

    Yeah mob density in there doesn't help at all either.

    Caepan. Also, if we have threadban working, why are we not banning Caepan from the FSR?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah. It's only included starting with the Heroic Edition. They just added the bullshit "Base" edition with nothing except the expansion.
  17. Malkav

    Boost is not included in the basic edition, only get added on one of the more expensive tier.

    At least it's strictly weekly quests and not dailies, and there is a catch up mechanic, so I don't think it's that bad. And no infinite AP treadmill.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Well, at least from what they said yesterday, flying should come in 9.1 and will be unlocked through renown/covenant compaign (content you'll have progressed anyway). No shitty rep grind nor waiting till 9.2. I guess that's progress.

    Haven't done WoD but for Legion I basically ended up 50 after doing the main quest line in each zone while skipping side quests. WoD may be a bit faster though.

    Read Dawnshard last night and was definitely interesting. I like how those "intermissions" characters that were introduced in the earlier books are later developped in something meaningful. Starting with Rythm of War tonight.

    They could be nice for alts. This time around, the implemented what they call the Threads of Fates for alts. Basically, once you've leveled once, you can chose to entirely skip the questing experiences on alts. Meaning you get to chose your Covenant at lvl50, the story is automically...

    You just can't queue for them unless you ilvl80.
  26. Malkav

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Yeah, especialy for alts if you chose to do SL through the Threads of Fate, where you don't level through quests the normal way. Being able to go straight into dungeons will help.

    I also can kinda understand the initial ruthlessness of the russians because you know losing would pretty much put them in a bad position with the Kremlin. They lost gracefully, but you can guess that it won't be without consequences for them.

    I don't think any of us participating in the discussion earlier and fucking around during pre-patch/expansion release is "playing WoW full time". Hell, we'll probably be doing something else in 2 months when we can't be bothered the grinds Blizzard seemed to be determined to add to SL. So yeah...

    Yeah, primary stats have been kinda useless for a while compared to good secondaries. This + azerite traits made ilvl completely irrelevant in BFA. Also, Azerite powers are flat out disabled in the Shadowlands, so you might as well replace your azerite armor pieces by the stuff from the event.

    Been luckier on the gear side myself, but yeah, I'm in the same boat. All my characters have crap gear and I'm still somewhat on the fence on what to play come release, so getting several to ilvl100. Leaning toward my Frost DK or MM Hunter so far. I'd play Prot Paladin as I love the spec but...

    The trinket is bugged and badly flagged for loot spec, aside from that, every boss has a fixed drop table. I'm using this site on the EU side : Shadowlands Icecrown Rares , spawn time and drop table for every named. Just killed Bronjahm on my hunter, got both the mail helm and the bag, feels...

    10 min respawn definitely would help, but it's not THAT bad. Between the gear bought with argent commendations (dailies, plus each boss enough stones to trade for 3/6 commendations) and the drops you can get, I've already geared up 2 characters. You need to check each boss drop table to see if...

    You know there is a skill called Break Fall in the Raven tree that negates most of the fall damage right?

    Been doing Nathanos on half a dozen characters for weapon transmogs, couldn't get the 1H Sword so far. Even my Outlaw rogue got a fucking 1H mace, like WTF? Really want the 1h sword and the shield for transmog.
