    They finally hit the aura shit in the dick on the beta server. Gist of it is auras have had their costs reduced(60% > 50%, everything else seems to be 5% lower), but Reduced Mana doesn't reduce reservation costs anymore. They instead made Enhance(the high level support gem that requires billions...

    D3 is definitely enjoyable, for a while. I find that you get bored super quickly with the rate of acquisition of stuff and how little there is to do once you're there. GRs aren't very appealing, especially with fucking shit trials gating them, and you stomp torment 6 in like 3days of farming...

    DFO: Dungeon Fighter Online coming back. Global this time.

    Well Diablo3 didn't die, even though people predicted it would when they removed trading. I think it's kinda extreme and it'd need to be accompanied by a lot of changes to the basic mechanics which they haven't thought about yet, but eh we'll see.

    It's one league that has 3old leagues mods at the same time and they rotate everyday, ending with all mods during the weekend.

    So I assume you already gave everyone else their agh and that's why you're sitting on 11k, right? That's a pretty hilarious gold/mins number though, I don't think I've seen that much before, especially for a game longer than 20mins.

    I think they'll end up removing the really annoying ones, like the one that lets you pick anything that's not connected in the radius. Tbh this one looks like a fucking mess especially since it apparently reaches a lot of stuff that you should absolutely NEVER have access to without the linked...

    State of the beta. TLDR, they had planned a lot of shit, there's a lot of complications, it's gonna take longer than they expected, rough ETA is end of june/early july. They're doing a 1 month league soonish. Forum - Announcements - State of the Beta - Path of Exile

    They mentionned something about extra retainers in the expansions I think I remember reading. I don't mind it cause the sub is less expensive than a normal mmo(with a 1char limit), so I add a 3rd retainer, and it's still under 15$ that wow asks for iirc.

    It's likely a lot of the servers will be decently populated for the expansion regardless. As to what's populated now, not too sure, you can make chars on various servers at prime time and see which ones are blocked and that'd be a decent starting point. Then you can go and check the auction...

    Gilgamesh will be a mess at the expansion release though. But it is the most populated non japanese server I believe(there's another I forgot the name of, bahamut maybe?) which makes it nice to find PF and stuff. I was wondering if I should server transfer to it but since I actually want to...

    I have very little faith in divination cards doing shit, considering they said they wouldn't add any themselves and they're all supporter designs, so there won't be that many and there will be for only specific stuff. Sure you might target a specific unique farming only the area for the cards...

    I actually hope it doesn't stay like that/isn't that good due to lower ilvl, cause that Voll farming looks boring as shit. I liked farming Piety or Dominus(though mostly Piety cause Merc Dominus farm is kinda risky) because each run took a while, some were faster, some were long, but you...

    There's one downside currently, you can still pick up items that are hidden. You need to setup the pickup on key function so you don't pickup everything while clicking around, hopefully they change it so loot filtered items become unclickable by default unless you hold the key, which would make...

    There's a new league? Or do you mean once they release act4 new leagues? It's the same as usual though, summoner or totems tend to be the best for first chars since you can MF with garbage gear and still clear shit. Spell based builds work well too for mostly clearing, generally can't afford...

    Well best way to get back into it is to just play the game, get to cap, do the content, buy gear with the rewards and clear everything, there's not much to it, progression is pretty smooth. If you play warrior, you do need paladin to 22 or whatever, to get Provoke. This is basically taunt...

    Dzemazel is still there. I was very happy to get Dzemazel on first run and AV only took like 4, those 2 are definitely the worst of the bunch due to being lower than 50. That said, I still took a bunch of runs for some other shit. Not as bad as some people in my FC though, one guy took 35+runs...

    When you log in it should ask you if you want to link accounts/have an existing account. You just enter the things, confirm and stuff and yeah it'll be linked. Note that you can't get a trial if they're linked, but if you don't link them, you'll probably need a separate PSN account on your PS4...

    Ah right, you do get a lot of solds running content once, but I assume most people aren't going to want to run dungeons on top of story just to get the ilvl to do more story to do the expansion. Shit's gonna be a riot if they keep that kind of stops in. As I said, I think it'd be fine if they...

    I don't see the queues being any worse than usual with 1tank and 1healer being added. Will be better than Ninja patch for sure, that was dreadful, you could sit in queue for like 2hours to get a group. And yeah I wonder if they'll change their plan for the 3.0 story thing, if they'll like...

    They haven't confirmed Jinx yet right? In the ZiggyD thing, they said they went with an american location for faster shipping, but when asked about Jinx, Chris didn't say yes(or no). You get the Axiom portrait in the Bloodletter one too, and the Vaal weapon effect is pretty cool looking, so I...

    Oh yeah that's pretty old, overall the UI isn't terrible but a bunch of stuff could be made better, like cooldown tracking, debuff tracking, TP tracking for teammates and such. All of this can more or less be made with ACT if you bother installing the plugins and configuring them appropriately...

    There's nothing else that actually matters really, it's just cosmetics and shit. I'm tempted to dump money on this and get the 260$ pack, but I'll probably talk myself out of it and settle for the 100ish one, I don't really care about the beta nor the points but I might as well support the...

    There's a parser for PC, in fact it's an old EQ2 parser with a plugin for XIV. Search for ACT(advanced combat tracker), and download the XIV plugin for it too. There's another XIV specific parser but it was fairly shitty from what I've seen and not as customizable, though the interface might be...

    Yeah there's a lot of really cool shit, including upgrades for people who don't have enough slots(BoT and the silver whatever that gives attack speed and you can consume it). Love the support space stuff, both ward types stacking and Arcane+Mek into a better item, frees up a ton of space for...

    They're removing Plink, so that's a plus. Probably replace by Necrovigil or some shit. Obelisk sprinklers if you're really evil. Supporter packs info was supposed to be today but apparently not.

    They have free weekends(even a free week a while ago), but yeah I said that before too, sub based games should have an automated system that lets you try the game again if you've been inactive for x amount of time after buying the game or what not. And yeah, I don't think this is going free...

    Yeah WHM is awful for leveling, especially since it never changes. Good thing is you get fast queues so you can just run dungeons when you get bored of Stone II. Ran the benchmark, 11k score with DX11, says Extremely High, so I guess I'm good. I haven't updated my Nvidia drivers in forever...

    The starting at 30 bit is great cause I really hated the first 30 levels. It means you only do a couple of hours of Costa fates, and then straight to Coerthas FATE train, which tend to be way more efficient than everything before it. Though in the end, it doesn't save you much time since 1-30...

    Yeah build defining uniques are still an issue, crafting a bit less so.

    I don't think they'll let you convert 50 tomes into 60 tomes, but maybe. The conversion rate is shit though, and it'd convert into the lower tier tomes, not the high tier, aka tomes that aren't capped and you can get running shitty 60 dungeons. Like in current game terms, you'd get soldiery, not...

    This doesn't sound like an absolutely terrible idea, the execution however seems to be way way fucked.

    The shockwave totems with the gloves look pretty cool, Havoc is playing that, makes Shockwave totem actually insanely good since mobs aren't push away from the totems but instead into it, meaning it's less risky for you and better for damage. They might nerf the pulling power though, looks kinda...
