I've lost many colonists and a few colonies trying to tame Thrumbos. I got one once, but it didn't have any special items like Muffalo fur or whatever, and it died a couple of years later to old age. I've since stopped trying to tame them, once you've done it for the novelty factor I don't see...

It's basically impossible, they follow me around from add to add and as soon as they leave an add it goes back to pew pewing at the Shaper. I might have had my Holy Relic out, but I'm not sure how much that affects my minions. The damage is pretty solid, but not enough to drop the adds in a...

Spent some time on Standard with that Dominating Blow guy cause I bought a Headhunter, super fun item. Drops Shaper easily enough, but I had a hell of a time trying to keep Shaper alive on a T15 Elder and just said fuck it and killed Elder without Shaper alive anyway. I'd bet if it was a T11...

Rewards continue to get better the farther you go down, check out the videos of the dudes who made it to 3000 depth and all of their nodes are currency or maps or something else good.

You should play Delve Softcore rather than Standard imo. Standard is for when you really hate certain league mechanics like Bestiary.

Fires of Heaven, 5 cards gives level 21 Firestorm gem, "Consumed by Heaven's Fires, the Jolly Ranchers were no more."

PoE is that something. Don't try to min max shit, just go have fun. I promise you there's almost no way someone with gaming experience can't make it to yellow maps on their first character, and that's really where the game gets interesting. Not to downplay the trip to that point though, the...

Wait, what? That's never been the case for any of my colonies, they take time for themselves pretty frequently. If your joy sources are terrible they'll get pissy, though.

Oh I suppose it could have, but you're still going to have a rough time with that Aegis dude cause he'll block minion attacks.

The only thing that can 100% clear HoGM every time I think is Scorching Ray, but I could be wrong I suppose. What I do is clear it out and then come back with an alt-witch that has Scorching Ray in a 4 link and like 2k hp to mop up the rest.

I don't know why people keep blaming the individuals. Blizzard's corporate goals are always front and center in their game design, it doesn't matter if it's Gurgthock, Furor, or tad10 designing the world -- they're not going to break Blizzard's corporate requirements for developing WoW. It's...

I figured it'd be *great* for Delving. Temporal Chains and a badass chaos aura can't go wrong, right?

You know what's really fucked up is in his suicide note he says he regrets transitioning, but blames it on his lack of strength.

Can you full on hit a woman if she kicks you in the balls?

Anyone done a Death's Oath Occultist build? Picked up a 3b 2g 1r Death's Oath last night, but concerned about single target damage.

Submitted my two Use Case Summaries (High Level and User Level) to the VP this morning and he loved it. @Lendarios, beer on me any time you're in town or I can venmo some cash, this really helped me out.

Yeah that's what I thought, but like the whole point of the program is to view the data in that specific way, just not sure what kind of diagram I need to provide to show that. I've now written up a high level use case, but even there I don't really represent that view except as an implication...

Yeah, I was just reading about how to write a use case, I'm gonna start with that in the morning. For some background, until just very recently I was by far the most experienced programmer on staff with literally 0 years professional programming experience, so there's almost nothing for me here...

Never left my rotation either, wife loves it but my brother hates it.

That would be terrible, it'd be a meta of constantly shifting your character to whatever the latest and greatest is rather than the successful result of planned decisions. Your character needs time investment and identity, and its spec is a huge part of its identity. They've specifically...

Temporary names, PanelName initially was something else, I just never changed the name. Essentially a panel is comprised of two parts: material and shape. The material comes from steel coils, and the shape comes from roll formers. The PanelName table represents the shape data, just what the...

Same, I'll hit you up in the morning, the help is very much appreciated.

Eh, the SQLServer thing is mostly separate from this except for the fact that they both deal with coils. I've made the argument that we need to centralize ALL of this coil information so maybe they do eventually get looped in together, but I'm not sure my new boss wants me to go off into a...

So what we do is we sell metal building components, basically a big coil of steel comes in that's like 42-58 inches wide, and then it's painted and slit down to the dimensions needed for any particular component, e.g. MasterCoil 52" wide gets painted Light Stone and slit into 13.9375" slits that...

Working on a new project for our VP of supply chain, he wants me to make an ER diagram of the program I'm going to write for him before I start writing it, but I don't know shit about making an ER diagram. I've been reading about it all day, but when I start putting it down on paper it seems...

Do it on hardcore!

I'd definitely get some high end content under your built before rolling HC to understand the level of damage that you'll need and what will probably kill you, but this is a great league for HC play -- Delve makes it extremely easy to level up additional characters, and there's tons of OP builds.

Herald of Ice, gives you pack shatter.

Did they get rid of badges?

Every MMO is a PvP based game so long as you're competing for scarce resources with another player. Where PvP design fails is when it strays from or does not provide a conflict resolution mechanism. Players who can't kill each other lack the agency to make a claim for a scarce resource.

Cause some asshole guild had the gall to raid Molten Core on 1.3 test and the nitwits here and in the rest of the community cried about how unfair that was so Blizzard didn't put BWL on test.

Blizzard's stance has always been "if we suck at programming, we'll ban you for it." Just one of the reasons they're terrible.

Conquest was banned for split pulling Golemagg to Garr's room.

Ripped on a T15 map with no damage mods on it. I think it was something from the Elder. At any rate, I took the same gear and ran Pit of the Chimera on Standard and it was extremely easy, I highly recommend the build. RIP JamesVZGuardian View Profile - Path of Exile - JamesVZ Bonus screenshot

You don't, you have to consider each layer of defense on its own. For instance, MoM tends to be weaker against strong dots because they drain your mana and leave you extremely vulnerable. You shouldn't think about defense as increasing your effective health pool, but rather as a way to...

Path of Exile is designed to be played on Hardcore. It's a wonderful experience.

I've been playing HC for about 3 years now, I've lost one character to desync. Shit was pretty rough before lockstep, but since lockstep it hasn't been an issue at all. Playing HC is great advice if you want to figure out how to make characters that don't die, though. The trick is to focus on...

Nope. Chances are you don't have enough life, enough layers of defense, or both. If you're wearing an Abyssus, you're going to die a lot unless you build around it very carefully.

I'm loving it, I can fumblefuck around all day with my explosives while my thugg life beatdown crew mops up baddies like the Hell's Angels at a hippie concert. Only downside to Dominating Blow/HoP minions is the inability to control them, but the upside is they're all grade A beefcakes that...
