    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Apparently the raid quest is tied to the MSQ so the world first race will start with a MSQ speedrun race. I'm not sure this world first race will be too interesting for a few reasons though, first raiding statics have almost always been hiding their progress to not get strats stolen, who's...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    I think he means how every boss has multiple phases where it just restarts a new fight after a cutscene instead of having organic phase swaps are certain hp treshold and stuff.

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    You could use Parasite if you want a channel, it has a god awful cast time but once it starts going it does good damage, applies poison(a damage ailment so that's nice) and it drains life so you get healed a bunch. On my summoner playthrough it did a lot of work without really much supporting...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Well the idea behind ratings is that you need to keep investing into the stat as you lvl up to keep the same amount. Say at lvl 20 you have 70/30 split, at lvl 40 you need to be 70/30 if you want the same stats, can't just have the same amount you had at lvl 20. You also lose damage if you...

    I don't think they wanted to limit Byregot, that's why they removed the other shittier byregot and left the good one, what they didn't want is people to be forced to have CRP50 to have it cause it was such an important ability. The cap was just because they had both innovation and ingenuity...

    Finished the game, last boss was surprisingly easier than the previous two, assumed it'd be a lot fuckier but way less "one shots" spam.

    Monster Hunter: World

    The one where he flies up then explodes? It drops a bunch of shit on the ground in a large circle, but the center of the circle(where he is) is safe and you can fight there. Or you can drag him out of the circle if the area you're fighting in is large enough, just go through and wait for him to...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Depends on weapons and shit yeah. If you play DB/Bow you definitly want to hit the right element, for others are good raw option will do fine on everything(gold rathian or royal weapons on PC). Once Safi goes live a lot of the BiS weapons are just the blast raw one, but technically against 3star...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Yeah and there's pretty huge bugs. At least on offline you can edit your save easily to fix any progression rollback issue and such. Can also make backups of the saves in case of. It seems the character saves are pretty good though cause I crashed 3 times in the same area(I think related to...

    Haven't had an issue, offline so might be an online thing.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Controls with the keyboard are a bit weird to configure but once you get around to it, it's not that bad BUT it's still kinda shit if you switch between melee weapons and ranged weapons since the way they're configured is weird. You can however make presets for keybindings to switch shit around...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Yeah I tested it and they do turn kinda dimmer, just looked they were still lit up but I lose the effect when I unlink. Got to 22 or so, summon build working well so far, one of the spell is great it lets you take control of enemies and a lot of enemies are super busted(one summons like 12...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    Made an offline char since I had no plans on playing online anyway, got to lvl 11 so far, been pretty decent although there's a couple of annoying things(mass clicking to sell shit quickly seems to not always work for example). Balance seems kinda fucked though, I'm going pet build as...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    I mean it's not like the cracked version will work online, and you can play offline even with the steam auth issues. So it's more like if you don't want to pay.

    Path of Exile

    Remember you need chaos spell damage to apply poisons with storm brand/ball lightning. Lesser poison would do the job, or a jewel with chaos on spells.

    While I liked GD, I'd say it was probably the "worst" out of the 3. That is D3 after all the patches and shit, not release D3, that was garbo. The combat in GD kinda feels bad and too many of the skills feel too same-ish. It still has a decent amount of stuff you can do and the last expansion...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    ZiggyD's(PoE streamer/content maker that works closely with GGG) beta impressions video. Short of it is the beta is actually really nice and he liked it a lot(even though he disliked the alpha a lot and wasn't really planning on playing it). On the flipside, there's a shitton of the promised...

    Stoneshard (Roguelike RPG)

    Played something kinda similar recently, Tangledeep, bought for 5bucks on sale, played almost 150hours. Has more defined classes(but you can job change and you keep skills learned so you can build your class) and looks a bit more basic on some aspects(storytelling, graphics and stuff), but...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah I meant more back then there were a lot of ideas like that, now they nerfed it down to a much more accessible place since a lot less people go there, you can solo decently too with echo and you don't really risk much by running around, since you can mount and the aetheryte unlock earlier...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Stormblood's relic was the primary purpose(which now is purely cosmetic) and then all the side stuff like mounts, emotes, haircuts, pets and so on yeah. Also some kinda interesting story that's tied to the main story somewhat(centered around Krile). And overall a pretty interesting twist to the...

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    If you're into anime style and action combat, there's Blue Protocol which looks like it might be interesting eventually, although it's still fairly early and there's no official plans for western porting just yet(it's more or less confirmed however since they were recruiting translators and...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    I'll look at some streams but honestly nothing I've seen or heard seems encouraging about this, it looks like it's releasing a year too early. So maybe it'll be worth picking up in a year but I doubt it'll be good at release, will see though I'm not one to avoid a decent ARPG.

    Tomes always work the same way, whenever a new raid tier is released(like 5.2), the limited tome becomes unlimited and they add a new limited tome. The current unlimited tome becomes hunt seals stuff instead(nuts this expansion, centurio before). So Phantasmagoria cap will "go away" in a sense...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Hmm so no new models, doubt they'll do a price drop for a while then especially since it's selling well. I should probably just buy one at some point in the future, I was hoping for maybe a Switch 1.5 or whatever with better something or other. Then again there's not too many games I'm...

    Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous

    I assume you don't get the key until the kickstarter is done though, can't find any confirmation but that'd make sense since Kickstarter doesn't actually give them money until it's over and it'd be weird for them to hand over keys when you can just cancel your pledge after.

    It's the amount of accounts collected, a fake news figure but eh. And on the contrary I believe online gaming has seen a surge with the virus since it's safer to stay home. Doubt it affects bots much though, since they're not people so they'll run regardless. Seems like there's some nice stuff...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Well also if your paper bag flies away, few weeks later it's half decomposed by the rain and stuff. That's really the point, if garbage people litter, it's not too much of a problem if it's paper bags cause it'll just go away on its own anyway, but plastic bags, not so much. They have paper...

    Warcraft III: Reforged

    Apparently based on a reddit post it seems Blizzard is offering full instant refunds for WC3 preorders. The fact they'd even do that is pretty sad, means they know they actually fucked up, but they did it after people bitched even though they knew they fucked up a long time ago.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Well the game does have "weighty" combat, similar to Dark Souls, and not similar to more action oriented game. Meaning, most weapons do have attacks that will take 3+ seconds to resolve(either single hits or multi hits combos that can't be interupted) that are meant as risk heavy attacks that...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Yeah you can basically put on very rare "buff" on Safi weapons that makes the weapon behave as one piece of the set to activate the bonuses. So for example you can use 2pc teostra with a safi weapon that has teostra essence on it and get Master's Touch as if you had 3pc(which then lets you use...

    Monster Hunter: World

    1) About 2/3rd in. 2) Go to the tail instead, the face really should be left for hammer/hh, or for whoever has shit mobility and is already there. If tail is already cut, go for wings if any and they take good damage(not always the case). If it's a smaller monster or there's no good targets...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Do note that blocking weapons are garbage on velkhana unless you have guard up, because all her breath attacks go through normal block, and since she breathes a fuckton, the fight is basically impossible if you rely on block(mostly lance and somewhat guns, SnS/CB/GL don't necessarily need to...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Oh yeah on Longsword I quite often end up mistiming stuff I usually dodge fine trying to build the meter and then it goes all to shit. Almost ran out of time on a 25mins temp lunastra earlier cause I figured I'd do it on longsword after a while of not playing it and between me fucking up and...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    If you put it in a bathtub or something large enough with water you can generally tell by pressing so air comes out, making bubbles in the general direction. Still need to inspect that part but is easier to find.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Thought the new Vaal was also really easy, overall I'm having most issues with the old shitty stuff, Kushala if I'm not using sticky(not hard just insanely annoying) and Lunastra(fucking bullshit). All of them are "easy" when I play lance so more talking about other weapons which don't have the...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Meh once you know the moves velkhana is the easiest elder dragon imo, most is very telegraphed and easy to avoid or it's the quick tail shit that doesn't do a whole lot of damage(and you can avoid easily by just running circles around her). She has good HZV everywhere so even without tenderizing...

    Torchlight III

    Yeah synergy was basically what made it into a 20-30hours game for me into a 100+ hours, I played a bunch of mods and played a bunch of modded endgame and what not. And I played not too long after release iirc so the mods weren't even that good yet.

    Torchlight III

    It's basically a pet class, only the pet is a train that follows the tracks. When I tried it during one of the alpha it was clunky as fuck though so hope they're gonna make it better. The track system just wasn't fun, it was a chore to lay down the tracks and you'd need to keep rebuilding track...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Investigations are random, you get them from breaking parts and picking up tracks, so you generally get a bunch automatically. Also the tailraider safari shit gives you 5 investigations every time it complete from the region you sent them in. You basically keep playing and get more...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Yeah autocrafts only procs when you pick up items to craft and you're not at max. But if you try to use one when you have mats it'll craft it so it's not too much of a problem, although you have to press the potion twice, once to craft and once to drink the one you crafted.
