    I mean nothing stopping them from making packs for a legacy/throwback league, it's the same thing as doing a pack for any other league really. Some packs have thematical armor, but a lot of the sets are random shit anyway so they could do it fine. If they were really lazy they could rerelease an...

    BLESS

    Hmm combat looks pretty good. Not really expecting much from this though being korean and all, I assume it'll be grind heavy, RNG heavy for progression(both in acquiring items and upgrading items) and in the worst case P2W, as in more P2W than I'm comfortable with. Don't mind shit like unlocking...

    They said they're thinking of things but yeah. Last time I opened a bunch of chests I got 2 red trinkets in the same chest, which obviously isn't super useful, especially since I already had a 33% curse 5%crit orange trinket before because I got lucky when I was rolling for something else. So...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You don't have to halt leveling, you keep the buff as long as you're on the unpopulated server, until they decide it's not low pop anymore and turn it off, even if you get past 60, you'll get the buff whenever you change class to something under 60. It's very good to level other...

    The push attack has a faster animation so it's better than LMB spam, however it starts with the angled attack(3rd light attack in the chain), which has a shittier hitbox, and it forces you to hit twice otherwise it has an ungodly shit delay after the push attack. Personally I just LMB block...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    They run quite a lot of games really. EQ1 and EQ2 both of which still probably have ~50-100k players, Planetside 2 which still probably has a fair amount of players, DCUO which apparently hasn't closed down yet somehow, H1Z1 which does have crates/keys system although the game is more or less...

    I linked it a few pages back but there's a simple autohotkey script for afk farming xp, assuming that's what you meant. Basically just queue with bots for Into the Nest, walk off the start area, in one spot specifically it kills you instantly so the bots don't get you back up, gives like 100xp...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    An absolute coincidence, it seems people are leaving the company: Daybreak update: Chief Publishing Officer Laura Naviaux has left the company What a weird way for EQ to finally die.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    I don't think Nintendo minds a repeat of the Wii considering it sold a stupid fuckton amount(3rd best console after Gameboy and 3DS which are both lower price handhelds, sold more than the PS3 or the X360). If you meant the Wii U which flopped like garbage, then you're definitely wrong since the...

    Tower of Time

    Yeah I added that to my wishlist when I saw a review by some random ass guy who posted on reddit. Both the review and the game looked good which was pretty surprising since usually both are shit when that happens and I haven't heard of either. Anyway I'll pick it up at some point in the future...

    To save yourself time, nothing interesting was said. Stuff is being worked on, and they have a quest system and new cosmetics coming in a major patch soon, with a minor patch for balance/fixes before. No date, no specifics.

    I did warm up to it, I wasn't a fan of the mechanics but now that I'm more comfortable just meleeing stuff I like playing Shade, the ult does recharge very quickly with the changes. I don't play it on Legend though yet, I feel like I still make too many mistakes for me to not be deadweight, I...

    I did halescourge for the first time on legend today, the nerfs helps A LOT. Our team was Huntsman Kruber(did most of the damage that run, very good player, good eye for specials and shit and thank god because the rest wasn't so great), Handmaiden Kerillian, Witch Hunter Saltz and me on Slayer...

    That damage reduction is kinda like whatever, it's nice to have but not a big deal. It does make Kruber himself a lot tankier than HM though, since you have 150health with 15% reduction, while HM is just 125hp with no reduction. Only tankier chars are like IB(150hp, 20%reduction, blocks a hit...

    Yeah foot knight feels pretty good for a "tank" because you can kill a lot of shit with good halberd usage and the low cd charge is great for controlling shit. On champion I could easily carry bads with halberd FK, it only sucked for boss damage and stormers spawning super far since I used...

    I mean in theory you can start before too and if you're good it's fine, unless playing Sienna then I wouldn't recommend it since you can't force vent nearly as well so it's pretty bad until 20. I leveled a bunch of shit from 10 to 30 on champ, but not the first characters, had to get used to...

    I haven't really played handgun much, but supposedly on legend it stops one shotting a lot of stuff without headshots. If you have good aim though and can reliably get headshots often at range, it's definitely a great weapon. Generally speaking, unless your Sienna/Kerillian/Saltz are trash at...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    Don't know how you had them down to so little, I played on SSD too(I play everything on SSD really) and it was still about 8-12secs for even the smallest loading, and sometimes close to 20secs for the larger areas. It was really really shit as I mentionned in my post. That said from what I've...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    I played this a couple weeks ago in preparation for the 2nd one. It was... average? It wasn't terrible but there were a lot of flaws, in many ways it showed that it was a kickstarter project and stuff. The expansion content felt more polished and more interesting overall. If I had to list the...

    Item power isn't that big as long as you keep some of the items up since it averages your items and then add your class lvl which is generally higher when lvling. You can also craft stuff when you want a big upgrade at once. It's worth keeping a trinket with curse resistance for grim reduced hp...

    Really depends. The fastest way is incredibly boring and tends to be running Empire at Flames on high difficulty(hard to do if it's your first char though since you don't have the requirements for higher diff) and failling as far as you can get, getting to the wine cellar is like 400xp in...

    %damage vs armor can be good if you need a treshold for stormvermins one shot, but vs skaven would be better in this case too as I think you can get skaven+chaos on the same item. Still better than vs berzerkers though. There's a lot of not great stats, even the % power vs aren't great unless...

    No idea about controller, never tested and I never play any sort of FPS/TPS with a gamepad if I have the choice. For weapon balance the big difference compared to VT1 I think is that they added chaos mobs right, and Chaos Warriors(the big armored fuckers) are fairly common and much tougher to...

    It's not really animation cancelling anymore, it's just resetting the combos. You can't actually cancel block most shit anymore, but sometimes the moveset are shitty past the 1st or 2nd move so you want to block to reset it back. This is mostly a thing with halberd and glaive, I think you can...

    The datamining and actual theorycrafting is still underway, without mod support yet a lot of the testing is hard to do. Here's a general overview of the best choices based on what I've seen. Everything is subject to change and playerskill trumps everything as usual, push attack is a new VT2...

    Beam staff still great, just requires more venting. Which does make it shittier to level with, since venting options are super limited at low level. That said since that was the case beam wasn't really that amazing anyway for lvling. I leveled Sienna with a bunch of fireball and that worked...

    Spear isn't good. It could be, but just isn't. No weapon is good for legend other than Glaive, really. Like yeah you can complete maps with other weapons, but you're just making it harder on your team and yourself. Glaive charged attack does twice the damage Wardancer/Spear do on charged...

    Well for the skill stuff this next league should have a bunch, they've already started talking about it. I guess all the potential previous changes were pushed back due to other issues and that led to 2 leagues in a row with not much new stuff, some new skills that underperform and/or are the...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Oh good that's what I was waiting for, some way to buy both legion and BfA without getting fucked in the ass since before that I'd have to buy both legion and BfA separately which was retarded with Legion only have a few months left.

    Some classes are still shit though which sucks because a ton of people are picking them now. Like so many Shades, even though the class is still bad even with lower cooldown, and all of them were shit too. Did some legend runs in pubs after the patch, it seems better than the beta version but...

    Usually don't have issues but sometimes I'll get like 4games in a row going really bad, like retarded spawns or retarded people it's kinda weird. Rest of the time it goes fine though, some runs are a bit scrappier with deaths and shit but it's fairly balanced. Legend is meh though in pubs and...

    You can do champion super easily at 200item power if you're lvl 20+ though so it shouldn't be too much of an issue unless you want to do legend. The grind is the same before 200 than after too. Personally I just grinded recruit and veteran a lot and didn't open my commendations and since I...

    I'd say probably some melee thing with Scion, something that's like Reave for clear Flurry for bosses, or Molten Strike which is good for everything.

    Meh attackspeed isn't that great and you can get Swiftslaying on your weapon eventually which gives 20% speed when you crit, which means crit is a lot better. Crits also cleave more so for hordes it's often quite similar and then there's some crit synergy stuff. 2nd one, headshot does more...

    Yeah curse reduction is for grim, it's effectively additional health when picking grims. Very useful stat, worth getting on a trinket and then just keeping the trinket until you get another with curse resistance, no reason to switch them up while lvling. For the 15 passives on waystalker, the...
