Time investment is a really stupid way to determine what is "hardcore" and what isn't. The folks who beat WoW cutting edge heroic content first are amazing players. There is absolutely nothing easy about raiding at that level in WoW. Most of the people who claim WoW is "ezmode" are just...

Amen to this one. I consider a lot of the other stuff mentioned to be minor annoyances. This one though has completely ruined countless shows. I really wish networks would look beyond the $$$ and show some integrity when it comes to their shows. Naive thinking on my end, but a man can dream...

Rofl... too easy. Anyway, you have no one to blame but yourself AlekseiFL. Your word is fucking worthless and that isn't our fault. People have to take a bit of a leap to show trust on the internet as it is. If you choose to spit on that trust (and over something as fucking stupid as Aion)...

If he links his sources then great. He has shown that his word isn't worth much though so until then I'd just advise taking anything he says with a big grain of salt.

Don't. The guy is often full of shit and has been caught in more then one lie over the years. He dug himself a pretty deep hole of bullshit back in the old FoH Aion thread. Until he gives a real source it is a pretty safe bet to just assume he is talking out of his ass.

Yes, ideally I wish the game was built around skills and not classes. No need to respec when you can just work down 2-handed weapons and build up 1-handed if you wanted to change something. Was more enjoyable from a min/maxer point of view as well imo.

I agree that too much hand holding can be bad for a game. Too many quality of life features can water a game down to the point that it just becomes boring. However, there are some QoL features that now exist because the original idea was flawed and/or fucking retarded. One of the biggest is...

This is a great one. Picked up FF4,5,6, and Tactics. 50% off is nice if you haven't played some of these before. Going to give Tactics another play through starting tonight.

I'd be thrilled if they just did away with levels entirely. Skill systems like Ultima Online used are far better imo. New character can go hang out with someone with max skills without any worries. Never once felt like I was grinding in UO because I never felt like I needed to be 7x GM. I'd...

Crixus! Show just got even better!

I enjoyed season 1. Not the greatest show HBO has ever done, but I'm really looking forward to season 2. If you happen to be a Tea Party supporter I can see this show being unwatchable heh. Sorkin is obviously not a fan.

I do believe DAoC was the first MMO to use a real combat system. Characters were developed with points/builds which were similar to talent points in a lot of ways now I think about it. Also as you increased points you unlocked combat abilities. Those abilities could then be used in...

The spot directly after the Superbowl is huge. House got it a few years back and it like tripled the ratings for that 1 episode. If they want the show to get exposure then this is a great time to do it. Tons of people will check the show out following the SB that have likely never seen it...

Me it would seem!

If your characters are from FV they will have a language issue. Just group your characters and have the one who speaks common spam a macro in group chat until everyone is at 100.

Just type in /who all Hot Cheetos. Anyone should be able to invite.

Son of a bitch nukes for 30kish too!

Avoid the Steppes. That zone is awful. Mobs have lots of hitpoints, and hit very hard. Try out the farm in dragonscale hills. Or do PoFire. Steppes, and Sunderock Springs are too difficult for the pay off.

SK has more AA then the Wizard? There is a curve that changes as you get more. When you have no AA or little you get a shit load of AA exp. At higher amounts it slows down.

Been playing EQ again lately with some rerolled folks and I must admit I do miss class diversity. Been fun seeing how unique, and powerful classes can be at their different roles. That is something that has been lost for sure in recent years. The goal being to make everything as vanilla, and...

Trickshot I think can also proc it. Other then that haste can help a lot. Far as I know nothing makes it proc more often though. You are always at the mercy of the RNG.

Testcopy won't work until the live servers get patched. Test is currently using a newer version so you can't copy atm. Should be this week.

Mages are extremely powerful. With the proper gear focus (enhanced minion XIII) and lots of pet AAs they can tank for you like a pro. Toss in a cleric merc and you can solo extremely well.

You can't until they patch the live servers. Will be this week. Just spend the time on live for now and /copy when test is available.

Finished it last night. I loved every minute of it honestly. It had imperfections to be sure, but Brandon deserves a standing ovation. He picked up the ball and finished the game. My thoughts on the ending: My favorite part of the book without question is:

http://www.evilgamer.net/forums/index.php That is probably your best source of information. I'm currently leveling a SK along with a few others characters. Good info to be found with some searches.

As I understand it Test is currently using a different version from live. We got patched twice so transfers are currently not available until both live/test are in sync. This is what is being said in general at least.

The choreography is top notch, and probably my favorite part of the show. The fights are entertaining to watch and not just "insert shaky action here" moments. I loved the archer duel scene Ollie had with Jack.

So joined up with Fight and Spynx tonight. The following insanity took place...

Appreciate the info. Been going over Underfoot, SoD info all day and I was a little worried I'd have to go through all of that first before moving on. The next armor set up from Elegant is only like 400ish hp and that seemed like a stupid amount of work for what would of likely been a barely...

I'm boxing a Bard, Mage, SK, Wizzy(replaced with BST after I get one up to level). Soon to all be 80. Test server. Not worrying about guilds or raiding yet. So just group content I can box.

Any advice on gear progression? What expansions should I just skip? Right now I am sitting in Elegant Defiant gear + DSH named accesories. I'm assuming that is probably the best there is until 80ish. Should I just stay in elegant and try for Abstuse stuff in HoT at 85? Or would I get the...

You should fraps the berserker swarming. I'd love to see something like that in action.

This is just a classic example of the path of least resistance cheapening the experience for the player honestly. There is plenty of community in PS2, and tons of behind the scenes coordination going on that your average "click here for action!" player won't see. They made it so easy for...

Dragonscale Hills is amazing exp. Anyone looking for a good spot around level 70 should go check it out. The Steppes is a total shithole and will only waste your time. Mobs hit too hard, and have too many hitpoints. Can easily go from 70 to 75-77 at the farm by repeating the tasks at the...

I'd use your shammy to buff/heal outside of the group and let the SK kill shit until he is closer to the sham. Maybe toss a melee dps merc in with the SK if you want to kill faster. It is a EXP weekend so take advantage while you can.

Just a copy/paste. Any progress made on test stays on test.

Made the same mistake. Yes you can transfer to test. Just type /test on whatever toon you want. Make sure to stack your toons with plat and transfer 1 at a time though. Might as well come loaded if you have the funds.

You should PL my baby 66 ranger with headshot! Or any of you high levels on Test. Would be nice to actually see some new content after all these years, and not just stare at the gnolls in the Steppes. I now have a 65 beastlord as well. My main toons from live can't PL beyond that point...

Yeah that is very different from the beastlord I remember heh. I haven't actually played beyond the odd test here and there since the end of PoP. I remember the few we had in guild were just there because we had the room. When putting together a group for AA grinding we never took one with us...
