    He gets treewalking now though, so you can broodmother your way into the trees like a dickhead and be impervious to ganks, I think?

    new Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 cards released

    I bought a new bomb PC, and one of the first games I played on it was FFXI cause it had a callback campaign event shit. Feels weird playing a 18years old PS2 looking game on a brand new 2k PC. I didn't go for curved/ultra wide for my monitor though, wanted 4K shit since I don't care much about...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The expansion is far away, but they still have a lot of shit to work on most likely. They're releasing it now because they can start testing stuff and because that part was already finished. Also probably an easier pill to swallow if it's available early than if they waited for 5.0 to release a...

    Lost Ark Online

    There's some missing classes still(although at this point it looks more like post release content stuff) so I think eventually they'll have more supports. Isn't too uncommon for korean mmos to launch with a single support then add another later.

    The problem is unless they nerf shit heavily, they won't be able to both keep the quirks of Blue Mage skills affecting bosses(like how in the trailer he STUNS Shiva, which would be super broken in many encounters, imagine interupting long casts and shit, even if the boss starts recasting right...

    Underworld Ascendant

    Supposedly, the tutorial is really long and is fairly well done, that's the area you're probably in. It gets really shit after, but it takes a couple of hours to get through the tutorial(the cynics will say it's because it prevents you from refunding the game once you get past it).

    DOTA 2

    Slark got A LOT of buffs it seems, just from general mechanics change. Seems he can dispel Hex again and pounce is now a TP interupt, which means there's no escaping him if he ganks you at low hp/you're a support. Also got some minor buffs directly but those are pretty big. Some of the changes...

    The only things before the expansion are BLU and the server transfer shit, everything else is expansion content. And there's not gonna be 5-6jobs that'd be ridiculous. There's gonna be 2 most likely, gunblade and another.

    Hmm the UI does change, but the buttons don't get deactivated iirc. You can hide the Cross button layout for gamepad and display the normal hotbars and get the same UI while in controller mode as far as I remember. I don't have a sub running atm though so I can't really check ingame.

    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    Artifact :: 11/18 Beta Update Can do free drafts now with friends, one free draft in casual mode(or maybe just free drafts in casual mode not sure if limited) and can convert shit cards that have no value(like stuff that's in starter decks) back into tickets.

    DOTA 2

    Was only played 3times in the whole main stage, with only 10bans too and Topson won with it in WB finals, not even grand finals. Interestingly enough, that's more than TB and Morphling too. TI had a way different meta than the current one, at least in terms of carries. There was a patch that...

    Don't the D pad target stuff? Pretty sure that's the normal way to target, other than X for nearest target, like left/right to switch targets iirc, maybe up/down it's been a while. Alternatively you could use some program to bind it differently? Not sure what you use for your pad if you're using...

    DOTA 2

    Wasn't Arc like not meta until this tournament? TB/PL/Morph sure but I thought Arc Warden was kinda recent. It's super strong but it's not like it's been constantly around to get bored of already imo. Should get nerfed though probably, just too good atm.

    I'm actually looking forward to doing FATEs again, I didn't mind it in 2.0 and the less PotD I have to do the better imo. They get additional xp so it should be fine and faster, it's not even that slow nowadays with the 100% armory bonus(versus 50% back in 2.0). Alternatively you'll be able to...

    Path of Exile

    Obviously builds that can't use stats stick don't use them. The issue with stats sticks isn't that everyone uses them, it's that for any build that can use them, they're virtually the best option and kill versatility and choice. Which is most physical builds, especially melee and physical...

    Path of Exile

    Might be life, armor is mostly irrelevant in this game and most builds will ignore armor even at endgame(in fact especially at endgame due to how it works). Direct damage reduction like endurance charge for physical, conversion to elemental(which is then reduced by your ele resists), increasing...

    They're just going to have to rescale everything regardless so I wouldn't waste time trying to figure it out. Too many classes have weird systems with either MP or TP. PLD, DRK, RDM, BRD will all have to be reworked due to how they use both ressources, sometimes in ways that just wouldn't work...

    Anything is fine really, but healers and tanks have faster queues for shit so that helps when lvling. The balancing is fairly solid in XIV, some classes are considered worse but the difference is mostly a negligible amount that doesn't matter more than player skill anyway.

    Humble Bundle has it for 20euros, not sure what that translates to in dollar but probably less than 30. It is possible it'll go lower too, a lot of the shops haven't started their winter/fall/thanksgiving/blackfriday sales shit. But I doubt it'll go much lower than 20 so you wouldn't lose too...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Eh we'll see, but from the way they worded the announcement it felt like you wouldn't be able to hit the cap until several patches in 5.x anyway. I think it's possible once it's capped they'll let you play with it, but seems like it'll be a long process. I wonder how that'll work out for players...

    Yep, Yoshida said there's a teaser for a new job in the trailer so most likely Gunblade class, it also fits the leak from a few months ago, it'd be a new FFXIV class with a Gunblade as its weapon. Mind you, there were already Gunblade related stuff in the recent patch, 4.4 especially. Also fun...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah the leak seems fairly accurate, predicting both 3jobs and a race, which realistically wasn't a conservative guess. The 50 cap isn't so bad for 4.5, but it'll be interesting to see what it's raised to in 5.0. They didn't really confirm it'll be 80 in 5.0, just that the cap will be raised in...

    Oh damn, Blue Mage confirmed, CEO of Square Enix walked on the stage in a blue mage outfit lol. Edit: Even a trailer. And apparently you actually learn abilities in combat instead of quests, which is surprising for XIV usually tame systems. That's pretty cool. EDIT: AVAILABLE 4.5 Edit: Capped...

    Seems there's a class teaser in the trailer itself, Yoshida's Tshirt is Viera teaser(Bugs bunny, with a race checkered flag > Rabbit race > Viera).

    Yeah fuck you buddy, I want Dancer. I'm fine with whatever though, as long as one of the class is a tank or healer and preferably it's not the gunblade class(gunblade tank). I really don't care for the gunblade shit, I'll level the class because I level everything but I'd rather have anything...

    It's possible they're preparing new stuff, we'll see I guess. Anyway to sum up all the PC stuff: Dante event is on and stays for the next 2 weeks, decent armor, to get from that. Next thursday, Lunastra comes in, great armor(lots of sockets) and great weapons(they have set bonuses directly on...

    Underworld Ascendant

    Reading that apparently the save system is so fucked, if you reload a save you keep your inventory, but the level is completely reset, so you can get items again, and apparently that's by "design" because the devs couldn't find how to save the state of the level properly. I had this on my...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    On the flipside, buying a PS4 once the PS5 has been announced/released will be cheaper than buying it now, even if there's no BC. Although this might take a while so not sure it's worth waiting unless you're in really no hurry(as in you don't care about waiting until 2020).

    Path of Exile

    Melee tank is going to be a lot easier to do as a new player/on a new league(not sure if you mean right now or when new league starts). Look into Juggernaut builds, especially molten strike shit, simple to build, tanky as fuck, high damage, just not very good map clearing. Not complete garbage...

    Final Fantasy 11 (Nasomi)

    It doesn't work THAT bad with a keyboard, but you have to forget about your mouse entirely, shit's fucking useless. It's also still clunky as shit, but same as console in that regard, switching targets, having to wait through the shitty sheathing/unsheathing animation to fight stuff, tab...

    Path of Exile

    Yeah the only shit is on standard, new league you'll just get whatever version of the new map tab is. I can't imagine why anyone would think they'd void all map tabs and try to sell new ones. She's not a master though, so no reason they'd show her. I guess they could have a replacement char...

    new Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 cards released

    It's all the 20xx series, but wether or not the problem is that much bigger or people are just latching on more reason to hate the card, it's still kinda unclear. One guy made a video since he works in some parts shop and the failure rates for the 20xx series in his experience(with thousands...

    Path of Exile

    Supports never stack, you can always only use one of each support skill on one skill, otherwise it'd get pretty retarded. As was mentionned, the UI will tell you if the support works at all. You can generally tell from the tags in the skill you're trying to support(if it says Minion, then Minion...

    MONSTER HUNTER: WORLD :: Devil May Cry Collaboration Event! Dante event on PC starting Nov 16th. Boots are nice to fit in weakness exploit in a different slots than the usual helm/gloves, and helm is alright too, rest seems meh, including the weapon(charged blade).
