    You think people who watch big streamers and donate money to them despite their wealth for the memes/lawls/flex of it have it in their potato based brains to not hop on the bandwagon and play/spend themselves? He has likely brought Blizzard hundreds of thousands dollars from his viewers alone...

    For all but 1 week that I can recall. If you play during the sweet spot in the morning when all the asia/oce players are gone ques are low and quick, but any other time GL apparently. I hit an 8k que at 1PM today to log in for calendar and guild shit which means I promptly closed the game instead.

    Exactly. The majority of people I played with at launch that were willing to give this game a try have quit and will never return again no matter what gets released or promised going forward just by how poorly the first couple months were handled.

    It's gross incompetence at this point regardless of who to blame. Just popping into Vern for the weekly today I get the reminder of how bad it still is. Cumulatively across 20+ years of online gaming I've seen less bots than I do spending 5 minutes in any non T3 zone in LA. I am pretty...

    Yeah the upload would be hot. I just never live in an area FIOs or Google fiber goes to. Literally blocks away in some cases. I had some outage issues in the vegas cox service initially, but I think it was a bad line in the house. Swapped rooms and it's been stable with no noticeable outages...

    I have Cox on primary ($150 / month), Spectrum rentals ($100 / month) and Centurylink ($65 / month) in other home all 1GB plans. I never notice the difference in quality between any of them. Just the wonderful differences in price between each state the services are in.

    If I still wore my pirate hat then I'd probably be with you, but it's just a 2 household and I'm the primary data abuser so 1.25TB shouldn't get hit with my current usage. Closest I've had was a 1TB month looking at the monthly stats and that was during no travel rona.

    We're likely be sipping metamucil by the time it's viable here on any large scale with how shitty/slow our infrastructure updates come. I have Cox in Vegas 1gb plan and they said I had a cap when I signed up, but either I don't hit whatever number they picked or it's not enforced as I use...

    Pretty sure some dude that joined my guild recently is botting (1400GS zerk/level 70 roster/level 5 stronghold) as every time I login I see him cycling in/out of a chaos dungeon for the entire duration of my playtime. I hit 1445 on the scrapper with 2 of the 3 remaining pieces going to pity...

    Causey where you been (it's dennis) :] Ques mostly in the Asia hours, but fairly low or gone by around 7-8AM for the most part. Haven't noticed evening ques but I don't often play those hours. You on Valtan? Come join my guild Conundrum. Think I have 2-3 spots open since it just leveled so...

    Grats on 60 =D. Hell cube or au naturel? I'm seeing quite a few pop up lately and they all seem to be doing the cube which would probably make me quit after the first hour.

    Hah. I gotta push to the rest of the armor to +17 first so I can at least start doing HM Valtan for relic pieces and I'd like to get that zerk to 1415. Then we'll see about getting HM Vykas ready on scrapper depending on how bad pugs look or start bringing the other 1370s on the roster into...

    It's being paid back on my other chars. I pitied 3 pieces on on glavier to 1400 -> 1415 and managed to get my zerker from 1385 -> 1393 eating all my leftovers/bound mats (600GHL!) and another 15k in purchased mats with multiple 70%+ artisans/pities. But that sweet sweet glow is done.

    Imma juri this up, but having only seen that trailer I definitely don't want to be running around doing chores in the city to inevitably unlock shit. Not a big fan of the color splash animations either. Feel like it's been seen/done enough.

    Valtan is an easy to learn (literally see the mechanics once and that's pretty much it) and an overall fun fight. Pug 1 shot on my scrapper and 3 tries with my glaivier today so unless you go full learning party you're likely to get carried even if you're balls at the game. Plus 1415 is the...

    Oh for sure, just keeping an eye out since I was doing a lot of raw taps and didn't realize adding some extra mats was worth it at certain price points. Yeah over my roster I'm on the average side/bad side on most characters, but in this case for weapon I've been insanely lucky. I have pitied...

    Are you using additional mats? I've been using Lost Ark tools and resources just put in your region prices and see what's most efficient cost wise per each tap attempt. Doing so adds additional pity and potentially saves you money in the long haul especially if you're not getting early wins.

    I'm fully expecting pity weapon +20 and pity the rest of my armor that needs to get to +17. So far pity legs +13->14. I don't even want to hone my other chars at the moment to ruin this good luck streak even though I need to get glaivier and zerk to 1415 =[.

    I am officially never allowed to complain about RNG again after these last couple weeks. Wanted to get to at least 1430 for Vykas and saw that hard mode chaos line had shard bags in the exchange so I had an excuse to start tapping weapon again. 3 taps for +18->19. That's like 10 taps for...

    Only for T1/T2. T3 you can farm "infinite chaos" and buy various materials/accessories that increase in price with each purchase. Great for grinders who want extra mats/cash and of course it's bis for bots.

    Yeah someone(s) already bought all the chaos dungeon drop skins that were 50-100g. Currently 1.5k+ so I'm assuming they can be stuffed in the jar. Two changes that should have been immediate, but they are fixing the S. Vern questline that has been broken for a week and they fixed the korean...

    It sucks cause we're basically early adopters. In 6 months/year or whatever when all the content is released and catch up mechanics and blah blah the game is going to be so solid for everyone especially when we have multi characters hitting up legion raids etc. I wish grinding infinite chaos...

    It's fine guys they are turning over a new leaf. To put into our mouth. HEHEHE <_<. Swapped engravings to something more meta gained like 6k atk power. Was super cheap too. <1k for all the jewelry (6k in pheons ofc) and a free stone that cut properly. If I could force myself to buy the lego...

    If you hate having 1 attempt a day and you still refuse to do the alt squad thing or swiperino then take a break and come back during catch up events for when new content is released. Then quit anyway because you still don't earn enough materials to keep up with the oilers and others who kept...

    It is apparently my very lucky day. Jumped on to do Valtan and decided to hone after. I two tapped (well technically 3 I used those fused stones from valtan raid for an attempt) 16->17 weapon and then 5 tap 17->18 weapon and then gave all my +11 pieces +12. I'm currently 12/17/12/12/17/18. I...

    Realistically it doesn't overly affect me since work from home and well I work during the que. Probably makes me more productive tbh ;] If it was purely during my personal time I would yeet off into the sunset as well, but I pretty much never play in the evenings or weekends anymore.

    Grats =D I'd make alts first for mats and such, but bard glow is pretty sick. ---- Valtan restocked on bots apparently as this bitch was 14k long and I've barely shaved off this much in 2 hours. Like GD I just want to do my guild check in and go play Elden Ring and I gotta wait 4 hours.

    Setting up a chaos build for them and using preemptive strike should remedy that or do chaos in a group (gross). I run it on my shittier geared/engraving characters and it makes clearing nearly as fast as my well geared/engraving chars.

    I definitely feel that sentiment already as how can it keep topping itself when all of it has been stellar so far, but it's the journey rather than the destination kind of thing for this game I guess. Adding to list of grievances - YES I WANT TO USE A FLASK TO GET BACK ON MY GOD DAMN DONKEY...

    I too would like a 20k payout for Valtan. I got my last char to 1370 today. Ate 900 bound leapstones starting from 1350 AND I had to buy another 100 something + 6k destruction stones after draining the entirety of stocked mats I had. Think that puts me around 800ish failures for the whole...

    It's a very fun and extremely fair fight. Hard has to be a blast with the tight dps check. Normal you can really sit back and chill while watching for mechanics and still have plenty of time to spare. It was mostly the same 3 of us getting into ghost phase which always made that part hectic...
