    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The more I read some things on the beta forums, the more I wonder about Blizz sometimes. In Legions, AP came from item drops, that you could use immediately from your bag. In BFA, AP was automatically added to your HoA. In Shadowlands, Anima comes from item drops....that you have to use in your...

    (2020) Assassin's Creed Valhalla

    I think you're in the wrong thread. Anyway, received my Collector Edition today (yeah yeah, I'm a sucker), and I'm a bit disappointed. Odyssey's CE was better AND cheaper. The figurine for AC:V is smaller, and kinda "eh" quality. Series X is only coming tomorrow though, so I'm stuck waiting...

    Well, with how many shows there are this season, he can't talk about everything. Dai is such a nostalgic show for me. The first adaptation used to be broadcast here in France when I was a kid and it was so awesome, but the show stopped well before the end of the manga. Plus, when you're a kid...

    The Mandalorian

    I don't like spiders, like, at all. So the episode definitely made my skin crawl. Was good otherwise.

    Depends on the kind of Mesmer? I think Chrono Mesmer is still pretty much the meta tank/support.

    Yeah, they seriously have a hard on for forcing people to log in daily to do crap. Can't even make them weekly, no no no, you have to come play every fucking day to do your chores. You don't have to do the Maw for Thorghast/legendaries though. It's just some unlocks in the Maw can give you an...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    From what I read, you can recover it from your corpse though. But yeah, as your main goal in the Maw is to farm Stygia, the last thing you want is to have WM on and get ganked and corpse camped. Also, it seems the factor that increases the Eye of the Jailer is the amount of Stygia gathered, so...

    We're not talking about gold though, what you lose is your Stygia on death, aka the Maw specific currency.

    What's even more funny is the Blue Post they did after the delay announcement, saying they'll "take this time to revamp the Maw combat and reward systems", so people keep expecting it to change. The truth, is that said revamp was just adding the things I talked about earlier on the vendor (so...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Let's put it like this, the vendor in the Maw sells : - upgrades to Torgast (like more shit on the vendors there, and so on) - upgrades to the Maw (including things that reduce the effects of the Eye of the Jailer shit) - freaking items to add sockets on your gear - items unlocking/upgrading...

    This. And then again, looking at some benches, Intel has like 1 more fps than AMD at that resolution. How is that even relevant?

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Why the hell would you look at 1440p/4K benchmarks for CPUs when the only factor at these resolutions is the GPU and any variation at the high end between CPUs is in the margin of error of your test protocol?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I think Blizz would get flak if dungeon runs were mandatory. FFXIV gets away with it, but that's not the same haha. I usually power through each zone like that, and then come back to solo the required dungeons for the order hall campaign when I'm 50. Ran a normal Maw of Souls with a pug at...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't see the issue except if you want to do them at the appropriate level. Otherwise, once out of Chromie time at 50, you can solo farm whatever you want as before. Old dungeons won't scale to 50 then. Edit : Also, I reread the original post, and it's about running HoV in order to move past...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Not everything scales between 10-50. Out of Chromie time, each expansion has a specific bracket, like Legion being lvl45 max. Once you enter Chromie time, the expansion you've chosen scales between lvl10 and lvl50, as well as the dungeons associated with it. To be fair, I don't even know why...

    It's kinda hidden, the quest chain starts with a drop from nagas on a WQ in Stormsong. Enjoy!

    Funny thing that you mention it, because the whole intro to the Crucible of Storms in BFA revolves around Xal'atath. The weapon is interesting though, thinking about leveling a priest to check it out a bit.

    So, it seems like BFA access is broken for some new alts right now. Some characters are not getting the BFA intro questline, like my monk. Got it to 50 doing Legion timewalking, got Magni questline to get the heart, and then a big fat nothing, no BFA quests, which means the character can't...

    FFS can't even update Elvui because their website seems to be getting hammered. Edit : wth is this bullshit queue on the patcher? It's only pre-patch, if they're not ready for this I doubt they'll be ready for expansion launch.

    Did you just stop before the opening or what? What you described is just like the first 5 minutes intro before the OP. I mean, I just watched it while shitfaced drunk and I don't think it was that complicated.

    Well, I think this is the volume that surpassed Change for me and a definite turn in the serie. I think this was the tipping point toward his Apocalypse trilogy that is supposed to come in a few books.
