    It's because there's a million dungeons released in this game. Just need to go through the list, do each dungeon once and they'll start disapearing really quickly, and you'll get a shitton of poetics to buy various classes 50 and 60 gear. I forgot the exact numbers but there's like 20+ dungeons...

    Oh yeah Paladin is another one, but I find it easier to setup still than SCH, but it's pretty bad with all the cooldowns. I do think PLD will get some consolidated cooldowns, but I think they'll probably also use the gauge more when they rework Clemency/Holy Spirit mechanics. The class should...

    I kinda expect SCH is going to get some pretty big changes too, the class is bloated as fuck in terms of skills, you just can't fit new shit on that class without removing a bunch of stuff, but everything has a place and is useful sometimes, so I think it's going to get some streamlining and...

    Allegedly, iirc. Although his "defense" wasn't particularily reassuring. Also some shit about scamming money, or being scammed of money, or both I forgot. Shitshow from a couple years ago iirc. Unless the game is super super good, I'll just wait, not so much because I care about the Epic shit...

    Well it's still optional. It doesn't mean the optional content isn't worth doing, there's a lot of side stories that are really interesting and well done. Still is optional in the sense you don't have to do them to keep doing the MSQ and unlock new stuff, but the original Coil, the current...

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    It's about flashes I'd assume, it's a cave after all so it's probably dark enough that phones default to flashes and fuck everything up. Could just be some scheme to sell cards instead if it's just any photo though.

    I think there's plenty of decent new designs. For example on casters I use the Bonewicca set, shit's pretty awesome other than clipping issues with certain animations. For the others I use older designs though but I don't vary much, my tank set is World of Darkness gear(I think), Healer is also...

    Many sets are already limited like that though. The ninja set is often a recolor/slightly modified brd/mch gear, and DRG often gets recolored/slightly modified tank stuff. Not all sets, I think 8man raiding sets are still unique, but look at the 24man stuff for example, there's not that many...

    Path of Exile

    As far as I've tested(and it's little), it's basically undoable as a summoner, because it uses pvp rules and they made minions specifically garbage in pvp to prevent "boring" gameplay or whatever. Basically a bunch of the masters you'll just stomp, and then some will start shitting permanent...

    I've seen people use it for Uber Elder so it shouldn't be that bad, although might requires some +lvl shit. And for bossing a bunch of people tend to switch gems(slow proj and what not).

    There's a bit of RNG sometimes depending on how your buff drop line up with his attack. Try to find 3 balls close together and pop sprint to reduce the amount of time needed. Alternatively not sure about DPS reqs, but you could over stacking several times instead of trying to let it reset. If...

    @Chris Might want some spoiler tags on this since not everyone is done with the story stuff.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    As a RDM not sure, I did it a few times on PLD until it dropped. Mostly pick up balls so you get the buff so you don't get murdererd by his nuke, refresh it, then heal to full before you let it drop and get 3 more. Should be fairly doable since RDM has more damage than PLD so the fight is...

    Grim Dawn

    You can do it on elite too, since all the bags are unlocked in normal. It also gives you the attribute and skill points from each difficulty you unlock, as well as all waypoints(so even though you still have to do the quests to progress the story, you can teleport all around the place and...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Are these instructions for modbuddy maybe? So you're expected to unzip the files in there, and then set it up like this. That or you're supposed to get modbuddy to run whatever it is you want to run first.

    I'm no bow specialist but you can look into 3 main different type of bow builds I think, Tornado Shot(and other attack based skills, but really TS is just better than the others), Toxic Rain for the chaos kinda dot kinda damage conversion build(with Caustic Arrow being an alternative, but worse...

    Looks neat enough, haven't played Borderlands in a while so probably will grab this one, I didn't play Prequel since it had kinda mixed reactions.

    RDM is great for solo questing and all that since they have fast casts and high burst with low cd, like beast daillies are so much faster on RDM than other classes since you can generally "one shot" mobs with a nuke+fast cast nuke+one of the 2 instants(both on stronger mobs), and Fleche is up...

    Finally done with challenges, Gem reward node spawned after another set of ~20 nodes. Stupid fucking shit. I dropped some Perandus coins in the guild stash if anyone wants them. Off to Grim Dawn.

    The new nexus stuff is so much better, but my RNG is still fucking shit. I've spawned about 40 distant memories in a few hours and none of them is one of the ones I need for the challenge. Meanwhile Janus somehow got recruited in the wrong branch of Betrayal without any interaction from me AND...

    The tree is more confusing than it really is once you get the basics, you'll often path the same way for several classes and builds and you just get used to it, although there's minor optimization here and there. The real customization comes from the Uniques+skill system. You can do some really...

    As far as I remember reading, it was more along the lines of waiting for the may live letter to know what they are doing with the classes because he didn't want to reveal one combat change without talking about all of them at the same time so people get the whole picture. I don't think it was...

    Isn't it just bad RNG? It took me 11 maps to proc my Jun master prophecy the other day. It used to be they couldn't pop on the same map if they didn't pop the first time but pretty sure they fixed that so you don't have to seal it everytime, but I was running random shit anyway, just wouldn't work.

    So resubbed and did the story, was really short, expected a bit more than that tbh. Wasn't too bad but I think it would have helped a bit if we went a bit further in the questline, although I guess what happens after is going to kinda cascade into a lot of shit in a row and there wouldn't be a...

    Yeah they either need to make Cadiro core, like Prophecy shit, you get coins every now and then and then he spawns infrequently in random places, or remove it entirely, shit sucks. It sucks they made a challenge about him too. The only reliable ways to get Cadiro this league are Perandus...

    People were selling various hideouts for 30-50c in trade 820, not sure about shaper one though, probably rarer just by the nature of the thing, unless you run a boss killing service so you have people giving you sets for free to farm it. Fucking Nexus shit is killing me for the challenges...

    Well technically Orbonne is newer. It's early for the echo/savage/tome cap stuff though, last expansion it was later than that(not by much mind you, but there also wasn't stuff planned up to may). Probably will resub soon once I'm done with PoE challenges, need to start farming a bard set since...

    You actually need to be on the Pyros weapon step to start the Armor stuff, so you have to do Pagos. You can skip Pyros and Hydatos grinds however as only being on the first step of Pyros is necessary.

    For farming light sadly there isn't really a "good" way. It's just all kinda slow and shitty. You can do NMs, it's nice if you want to just afk. You can join various light farming parties, some will also do NMs inbetween, that's more efficient than afking but it's boring as fuck and also still...

    I mean I got there just doing the sulphite I found myself, a lot of it from quests, also I bought a few niko prophecies to run when I was doing shaper/elder guardian maps(it's like 5k sulphite there for 15c prophecy, although it doesn't spawn all the time). As for fossils, I didn't actually play...

    Nexus is +1, not max rooms. If you only had lvl 1 rooms around it, they'd be upgraded to +2. Also it only upgrades rooms directly connected to it, so catalyst of corruption wouldn't be upgraded. Engineering should have been upgraded from 1 to 2 though. Nexus is often a bit shit sadly. Finally...

    I don't know which icon is which but isn't Elder still on red on this? Guardians are considered red map if elder is on a red map, regardless of where they actually are, so should be fine for the quest. Elder is the eye on precinct I think?

    I mean I do that in every game pretty much. Once I'm done reading subs I'll just skip the text, rare times where I just stand there actually listening. Part of the annoyance with XIV dialogues is there's pauses inbetween every character talking, so it feels fairly slow if you just listen...

    I think they wanted to add one male one female, they knew they wanted Viera for female since it was always requested, and they didn't want to make male rabbits for whatever reason and/or wanted to make a "big" male race, so they went with an old FF race. They could have done something different...

    Disapointed DNC isn't a healer but still kinda interested, we'll see how it goes when they reveal more about the job. I just feel it's going to be very much a light support like BRD/MCH so that's not really that interesting to me in terms of role. I had hoped it'd be a melee support at least...

    Seems Vaal fireball works better though, it's ok-ish for bosses if you can get them close to a wall and the map clear from what I've seen looks fairly similar since the aoe of fireball becomes gigantic once it flies a bit with the jewel.

    Yeah they tend to have some of the best. Bard and Dragoon have cool shit too. I wish there were good looking fist weapons but I dislike all the relic designs basically. I wish they'd do a relic like Makai fists where it's just gloves/half gloves/nothing with some cool lights. Almost every fist...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well you could get it back anyway by redoing the quest regardless and they won't replace shit without making you use your one time account replacement thing, which is probably not worth doing for a single relic weapon, especially since that's like, the first step? Just throw the shield away and...

Mind you, I'm still like 30% on mastermind at lvl 94.5, so it's definitely not good, but I've gotten some safehouses at least. Sucks they didn't fix the crafting shit too though. They need to like, at least...
