    AA is always good if you can run it without the downsides(mana issues, which EB should cover fine). It reduces a lot of the smaller hits, acts like a solid base of armor really, which is great combined with acro which generally lacks the mitigation for hordes of smaller shit, and it also...

    New ninja short gameplay video, looks pretty damn sexy: Also logged in for an hour yesterday, had no fucking idea what I was doing. All my UI shit is gone since it was on my older PC so I had to start redoing gear sets(which is painful, I have like a billion of crafting armor sets in my...

    Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

    All plate armor comes with some base resist. The higher the quality, the more resist, and level ranges increases the tier too so you get higher values on higher gear. At 16+, legendary chestpieces come with like 40% base or so. Then you use a Ruby on it(need 5 crafting iirc), and that adds like...

    I didn't mean dying as in empty, I meant dying as in crashing and not letting you relog. Cause of too many people logging in due to free week. Might be resolved already though.

    Oh man debuffing yourself with Temporal, that's a pretty smart way to think about extending a buff. Really cool build.

    Caliane the only thing you need for a warrior to move well is like 2pt blacksmith, use chestplate on anvil, it changes the movement penalty into a movement boost. As soon as I started doing that(didn't figure it right away mind you), my warrior started having more movement than my rogue did. Can...

    It kinda says so right on the trial page thingie, I remember reading it. Also I guess it depends on how much you play, 14days is more than enough to hit the cap on like a combat class and a gathering class, so no market would be quite annoying. Game's free for a week at the moment though. No...

    That's a fair point. It'd probably be better if they had a system where you can spirit bind a second set of gear without unequipping your gear, but they'd need to tweak(read nerf) the rates a lot and that'd be worse for a lot of people. Maybe let people extract materias from their gear without...

    They should probably make it on by default and let people turn it off with a disclaimer that if they get hacked at any point with it off, they'll be on low priority support for restoration. I really don't like doing the auth shit myself so I run without them when possible(aka when there's no...

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

    Those Neo Geo games were fucking godlike though. Like they looked so fucking good and ran a lot better than SNES games and shit. Just yeah, they were expensive as fuck so you'd buy one game a year. Not that there were that many games on Neo Geo anyway, other than the thousand of fighting games...

    Also because leveling alts seem to be mostly done in instances nowadays, since quests are a one time thing. So the only people you see questing in general are first timers, making every zone fairly empty besides like gatherers/fishers/bots.

    Well the mana modifier is relatively low on reduced duration and it's basically a 60% DPS upgrade when maxed on the dot, which is quite a lot. Obviously over the entire duration it doesn't increase damage, but if you do that much more damage on each dot there's a decent chance the mob, bosses...

    Wasteland 2

    Not many new abilities doesn't sound very fun. Shadowrun Returns had a fuckton of progression especially with all the different classes, and you ended up really having different setups and stuff, but with the more realistic approach of this it sounds like the main differences are gonna be what...

    Do we want a separate MOBA/TCG Forum?

    I think I'd rather see a split of online/single player games, with maybe a thread of each in case of games having a major focus on both sides or entirely different games, like say Mass Effect 3 back when it was released. Result would be roughly the same, since TCG/MOBAs are multiplayer games...

    Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

    Well for warriors, one of the henchmen has complete retarded stats, like lvl 1 or 2, Sven iirc was the name, he starts with 5 in Man at arms, so that frees a fuckton of points. I believe Madora has a bunch of wasted stats and skills too. It's no big deal but you can mold the characters better if...

    Yeah respecing pretty much sucks, especially since a bunch of the skill books are unique or in limited quantity(or simply don't even exist as books like Dust Devil which can only be acquired on char creation). Can use a save editor to respec instead, doesn't really change much other than letting...

    So they revealed the last Master, it's Zana Master Cartographer. As the name implies, she deals with maps, she sells enchant to maps that apparently give them the old leagues modifiers(so onslaught, nemesis etc). Interesting bit here is that every master sells items too, so it's possible she...

    There's a few variations, there's the "standard" priest with a few naxx cards but mostly the old control priest(google amaz priest deck and you'll find a list, more recent ones have those zombies that heal for 5 when they die, you play them either early or with Auchenai for a 5damage nuke...

    The attackspeed stat on weapons determines autoattack frequency I believe, similar to wow, so pretty useless. The attack speed stat reduces GCD, similar to haste in wow. Also reduces autoattack damage I guess.

    Hmm maybe they nerfed it since last time I played, or maybe you're just killing super slow with paladin which I guess is quite possible too. There's a spirit binding ring too from a quest in north limsa or somewhere around there(the place that has like a path made of paved stones in the water...

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

    It doesn't cost 125$ for beta, it costs 25$ more. You pledge 35$ for the game then you can go in the buy addons thing and Beta access is 25$ to add to your account, so 60$ total. I didn't bother cause I don't want to play an unfinished game anyway but it's not particularily expensive. Should...

    Soulbinding shouldn't take long, you go to one of the tribes area with a lots of mobs and just aoe them down. Preferable with a class that does that well, but generally you can soulbind an entire set in 10-15mins or so. Used to bring a few sets and do it for an hour with a friend and then we'd...

    Tales of...

    Not sure why you'd compare Tales and Disgaea, they're entirely different games. It's like comparing SC2 and Civilization or something. Sure they're both RPG, but the Tales series is most well known for its action combat, stringing combos together and beating bosses by skill as much as by stats...

    Well to be fair, Defense builds with shields kinda shrug ranged attacks really easily in general. Since they spam small attacks they keep your 15%block passive up all the time and the high armor makes the damage fairly meh. But yeah there's probably a huge gear difference too. I was thinking...

    Doesn't do damage yo. Always max the damage first. Hell get stats before stun duration. The stun is only here to cancel TPs when people flee in terror at the sight of your OP damage.

    Wasn't hunter winning most of the time even before the mad scientists anyway? Every tournament lately have had a hunter deck doing well, once in a while it loses to other top tier decks but generally, a bit like miracle, if you draw the stuff at the right time you kinda can't lose.

    In case you didn't read the hint popup thingie, you can set like 3 places as favorites which gets massively reduced teleport costs. Definitely want to set one capital and the place near the main story quest hideout place. Alternatively just set your favorite to Limsa Lominsa, taking the boat...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    What it made me think of is Trunks going back in time to save Goku so they could defeat the cyborgs. The pinnacle of a great story, DBZ in its dying years. I guess next expansion will see an immortal alien demon come to devour everything then become really angry and turn into a very evil...

    To be fair, the Wedge/Biggs thing is a FF thing in general, it's not new, they've been in many games and it's not a translation thing either, they're called like that in japanese also. Star Wars reference originally but like at this point it's become more of a FF clich?, kinda like the summons...

    Yeah seems extremely strong, guess that's what I'm going with for my build since I've always wanted to do a Viper Strike build but it was garbage for all the time I was playing(it was buffed since but haven't played in a while).

    Hearthstone

    Well it's as random as what you have in your deck, which isn't really any more random than just playing the secret. Point of the mob is it's a 2/2 that also puts a secret in play, for only 2mana. It's very cost efficient, unless you're a paladin I guess but even then it still saves you one mana...

    Can look at the list of skills on the wiki: Skills - Path of Exile Wiki Blue gems tend to be the "spells" even though there's some spells in other stuff. There isn't really a beam, however for example there's incinerate which projects a flame as long as you hold, and the longer you hold, the...

    Path of Exile

    The actual new one doesn't look much different, just has icons fixed and names fixed. Thing to note in relation to the life nerf is now base life per level is 12 instead of 8, so lower % still gives the same hp roughly, problem is we don't really know the extent of the other changes. Based on...

    Classes don't really matter much. They define what you look like(probably the most important aspect in fact), where you start in the tree(relevant early game but rarely late even though some classes have better affinity with certain specs) and which skill gems you're offered as quest rewards...

    You can buy logs with hmm soldiery I think it was? Something anyway, in Mor dhona I'm fairly sure where the high level gear vendors are. Log drops are like just to add a bit of RNG to it but mostly you buy the logs with one of the things you get from hunts. Might be allied seals instead, like...

    Ah right that's what I couldn't remember, Viper didn't use to work with splash, does now? Sounds alright. Generosity wording yeah I didn't double check, the wording would make it not work on pets then, I guess it kinda make sense as a team aura bitch char kind of thing, though it sounds like...

    Would assume it does, aren't more aura changes coming though? Then you have to consider, how many auras can you support with it. I mean last I played you'd run auras in a 4L with 3auras+reduced mana, putting this as a support means you only get 2auras, do you run a 2nd 4L for more auras or do...
