    It's not capped to begin with, that's what they're saying. They'd rather have a cap and stick to that rather than have it fluctuate, but even then it runs pretty poorly on consoles so even a 30FPS cap might not help since they dip to 20 pretty frequently. With a good PC it should be better but...

    It can become really fucking good, the issue I have is you can't "lock" it so if you forget about it and shatter some random weap you can just brick it.

    I really don't care about the tech though, I constantly play older games, currently playing Etrian Odyssey 3 which is a DS(not even 3DS) game, and I routinely play traditional roguelikes(recently Path of Achra which technically is a modern game although it's all fairly old school looking sprites...

    Oh yeah I'm reading they had a bunch of stupid shit setup, I thought they had this setup in a non stupid way where it was purely the emulator and none of the pirate-y stuff to try to keep away from lawyers but apparently nope they were just doing stupid stuff. The Patreon also didn't help...

    Apparently the Yuzu vs Nintendo thing already ended with a settlement for $2.4m. Guess the Yuzu guys didn't want to drag it out in lawyer fees and could somehow afford that much. Interesting Nintendo settled for that amount thought they were looking at making an example but that's realistically...

    I'd assume since the prophecy drops are a different pool than the normal drops(they drop on top of you instead of on top of the monster for example), the prophecy drops still wouldn't include the boss, but can't say for sure.

    Well warlock ward generation is outright a bug from what I read, so that could get nerfed mid cycle pretty easily. It's supposedly absorbing 40% of minion life instead of 4% like it states. You don't have to go higher, at least not by large amounts, and it can be done via separate new...

    There's a few paladin builds that are pretty broken, healing hands stuff(I think there's a few variations) and Smite stuff. Also spinny hammers. The first couple have builds hititng 30k+ ward without the warlock bullshit, while doing pretty good damage. I really liked Erasing Strike build for...

    Some mobs have shred and shock will also shred lightning, but it isn't nearly as important as in poe where you usually overcap to account for curses and because resists are so important in mitigating damage, in this game if your resist drop to 60% you're "only" taking 15% more damage, which...

    Top comment on this points out that even past the stuff he mentions, there's an even more obvious one, you can see the leg of the 3rd monitor stand on camera during the whole run, she didn't think to move it further or adjust the camera differently. Really fucking dumb shit for clout.

    Better gear, but if you're using profane veil you need some minion health mods to scale that. If you're not it's likely lack of necrotic res being low because they have it on every piece of gear to scale Boneclamor Barbute. 5k ward should be plenty for pretty much anything besides stupid...

    Feels like for Sentinel you need 2 movement skills for it to be good, like shield rush(need to specialize if you don't use a shield) + spear(need to specialize it)/lunge(can be unspecialized) then it's fine, but feels bad depending on the build to run 2 of these. For other classes it depends but...

    Dying doesn't reduce stability as far as I've seen. The only thing that seemed to is when I killed Abomination the other day but forgot to speak with the spirit to claim my blessing, and then I noticed I was now short on stability to requeue and had to run another echo or two before I could...

    They're both pretty reliant on having enough phys resist and hp and yeah sentinel can usually get both pretty easily. But any char imo that gets their phys resist fixed by chapter 8 to like 60% or higher shouldn't have trouble with either. On my very first run I did die on Lagon on my necro who...

    Yeah when I did her on my fire sorc it was really easy cause of ward on hit on frost claw(converted to fire), and anytime you drop below 70% hp if you get hit by a big thing, your mage passive procs(should put points in it at least so it does) which gives you a ton of ward, and then flame ward...

    As I said above it's just resists, honestly by the time I reach her I usually have most resists at 60+ as good gear start dropping during chapter 8 and it's pretty easy if you upgrade the resist lines. I've facetanked her on most chars, some have enough damage to kill her without her doing much...

    There is a belt affix that removes all ailments on potion use which you can use to remove annoying shit, doesn't help when you're getting spammed but for most things it works well enough. It's a rare affix though you should add it to your filter to notice it and shatter a few, the affix has...

    Them scaling with minion hp is fine but they should be untargettable with your own stuff. The ward thing isn't the first issue with bone curse walls, there's some 0.9 builds that use it with sacrifice to do stupid stuff like one shotting bosses(takes a bunch of prep but still). The issue then...

    Well health converts into ward via low life uniques or some class specific stuff but if you use any of the poorly balanced ward generation tricks yeah it doesn't really matter as you'll get like 20-50k ward without much investment so it's just a matter of getting a few ward retention things so...

    That's one thing maxroll loot filters do well, hybrid health is always in the BIG RED recolor/emphasize category for important affixes, so you can't really miss them(unless they drop offscreen which is another issue, they definitely need the poe thing where you can set minimap icons on drops...

    That helm goes "slightly" past powerful, it's super broken. Even used normally it's already quite strong but you can do some shenanigans with mass summoning stuff and it'll consume everything and then one shot T4 julra and shit. I assume they'll nerf it a bunch(although part of the issue is bone...

    They stay until you clear them or delete them, you can hunt for them when it's something you can hunt for, otherwise it's gonna be RNG just depends on the objective.

    Also some affix shards are really common as drops, while others are incredibly rare. Stuff like class specific affixes are super rare but these you'd use filter to find the ones relevant for you(they're pretty common as affixes on item when playing the class they're for), but several affixes...

    Alt Z is the default I think for hiding tooltips. There's 2 keys for somewhat the same thing, one that turns off loot filter(I assume X by default I changed it) but also one that simply removes all visible loot regardless of loot filter. There's no reason to use that one so I'd recommend...

    I believe it's only the bosses with special health bars you fight against like the ones at the end of dungeons, during the campaign, the ones when you do the 3rd timeline fully stability fight, the corruption boss and such. Also sometimes rarely in echoes you'll fight a campaign boss that I...

    Necro is quite good too and has a variety of builds it seems like. Leveling as the minion army generic build works well and is really easy and it converts well into early monoliths too. I also liked they had "active" minions that you have to spam with volatile zombies and wraiths so it's not...

    If you press, G I think by default, it opens a help menu ingame that explains a lot of the basic mechanics. Yes getting more than 100% chance to apply status can apply more than 1 stack at a time so it's worth it, like 250% chance is 2stacks with 50% of a 3rd stack, you can get some crazy amount...
