    DOTA 2

    That said, the cooldown and mana cost go down dramatically too. Mana cost might not be too much of an issue but the 15secs cd on a 800nuke is a pretty big deal vs 35secs for 400. Think it depends on your hero mostly and how dominant you are.

    Well you get a pack every 20wins pretty much, if you play a fast deck it goes relatively fast, but not really that fast, and you're capped at 30wins a day too to generate new cards. Can bet on arena runs instead where you can get much better rewards but if you don't like it, yeah it kinda sucks...

    Not really no. It doesn't have a bunch of cone of colds/blizzard/frost nova/ice blocks to stall for giants, which there's only 2 of anyway, nor does it have the direct damage to face rush then nuke and finish at 8. Only one fireball, no pyro, no ice lances(not great but does quite a bit of...

    Project Eternity - Spiritual Successor to Planescape/Icewind Dale/Baldurs Gate games

    Animation definitely looked pretty bad, but why would you care about the animations in a story based rpg. Looked decent enough, the backgrounds looked fucking awesome.

    There's a huge difference to me between dusts, which is only usable for constructed and only until a finite amount, and gold, which is usable for both and is required to do arenas. I like playing arenas, I don't like playing constructed. Also it wasn't as low of an odd, I don't think your...

    Well before there was a huge variance and you could get higher gold, if you were lucky. Basically if you'd get all gold packs and some of them were max value at your wins. I've gotten 130ish from a 4wins prepatch, I doubt you can get that anymore. I think the biggest difference though is in the...

    Hearthstone

    Well from what it seems, 7wins always gets you 150g+pack, potentially more, under 7wins, it's rare you'll get 150g anymore because of the reduced pack and you can get extremely unlucky and get a card instead of gold, which isn't even necessarily a good card(the card seems entirely random...

    It's not a launch. It's early beta. But yeah I'm holding off a bit, probably pick it up next patch when they do the first balance pass.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Apparently a wipe is coming on F&F beta, so might mean closed beta is starting(or they're making a bunch of changes and want people to retest). They also changed the ETA for the PTR from "Soon" to "Very Soon". So probably next week.

    Hearthstone

    Yeah no it heals, then add 1current/1max, so it increases def by 2 if the creature is wounded. Not sure why it does that now but that's what I read. Maybe they're working on changing the order of buff removal so you can like holy nova 2/2 that have a blood imps buffing them to 2/3 and kill them...

    Hearthstone

    On the upside if you play warlock atm, blood imps are currently bugged and heal for 1 then add 1 to max health.

    Hearthstone

    Based on initial reports, they just decided to fuck bad players by reducing the rewards at low wins. Might be more consistent now though, but there seems to only be 3rewards, 1 is a pack, then it's gold and dust or a card. 7wins apparently is 150ish g so that'd be the break even point. Need more...

    So that was all the card changes, not just the nerfs. I assumed there would be buffs to cards too, guess I expected too much. And I didn't see a mention of bug fixes for cards being bugged(swapping around, going under another card in your hand, staying on the board).

    Hearthstone

    The biggest issue I have with the game is it's blizzard, and they've already shown they're slow as fuck to patch anything, I mean, 2 months for a patch in a beta that is filled with everyday bugs? So the hope of getting a large amount of new cards, a new hero or new mechanics(which would still...

    Yeah while I did pick counterspells last time I played arena(against shitty cards and it's not a horrible card, had plenty of times where I was low but had a taunter+counterspell to ensure I'd get another turn and kill him) spellbender is really pretty fucking bad most of the time. In ranked I...

    Hearthstone

    What I wonder is what are they buffing, surely that's not all the changes. I mean there's a few OP cards that need to be nerfed sure, but there's like 3times as many cards that are absolute trash or slightly under budget. Could also use a bit more variety for certain roles, like silencing(to...

    Path of Exile

    6links tend to be recommended yeah, most builds I've seen just use a tabula rasa, it's a fairly cheap 6L you can use at any level. It does have no stats so that pose an issue later on but is still viable.

    Edit: Nvm that, guess there was an approximate time.

    Hearthstone

    Oh didn't notice the cost was 4. Severely dampens my estimation of the card then, still a good card to play if you have a combo setup ready, especially buzzard since you should draw like 3-4cards for it, which alone would make it an alright card and you get a bunch of crappy charges, but meh...

    Hearthstone

    I kinda like Priest's ability, if you're backed in a corner it can buy you a few more turns before you die(unless you're really getting crushed) and early game it has a lot of interesting class synergies with power word shield, divine spirit, lightspawn and northshire cleric as well as taunters...

    Meh more games than these 2 I'm interested in, but don't know what I'll buy right away. Interested in the south park game maybe, lightning returns, the witcher 3(which is not on the list but I believe is Q1?), the diablo 3 expansion most likely(also not on list but it's blizzard so could be 2nd...

    I thought you couldn't disenchant them cause they're basic? I know the golden class cards I got I can't disenchant even though I don't give a fuck about a golden sinister strike.

    Oh right, never seen tinkmaster played then, only mekatorque. Tinkmaster I guess can be better if you get it early and enemy has nothing on the board, like if you can coin it with a 1-2drop on your side, worst case you lose a bit of damage but you can also get a pretty big guy right away.

    I've had him played against me once where it actually won the game, but the rest of the times it did nothing more than a 6/6 and a few times it actually won me the game by healing me twice in a row or sheeping the tinkmaster then itself. Just faced a hunter in arena at 7-0, fucking annoying...

    Hearthstone

    It's complete shit, unless you also have ancestral. Mana cost is way too high for what it does imo. Divine shield and windfury doesn't synergize well, if it was a 6attack maybe it'd be ok, like a stronger Argent Commander, but since it's windfury you pop the shield on the first hit and take...

    Not just that though, most of south american players get better pings on US servers than SA servers, because of stupid routing and hosting and what not. Russians play western europe servers because they get faster queues too. Obviously in the lot there's a bunch of retards who play just to troll...

    Path of Exile

    If you run chain+lmp or fork or worse gmp, you'll do no damage. All these massively reduce projectile damage and spark isn't very high damage to begin with. From what I've seen, the new storm call or whatever spell is actually the best lightning spell by a lot, as it does fairly high damage for...

    Hearthstone

    Maybe they have more than one card to play and are considering what you're gonna do next turn and what's more beneficial for them to play first? If I have only one thing to play I'll play fast but if I have multiple stuff and you have shit on the board I'll generally take 30ish seconds at least...

    Lineage Eternal

    If you look a few posts up, you'd find out it's not even in beta yet, but will be this month, in korea, with a planned release of late 2014. So it won't be "alive" over here until 2015 at best.

    A lot of people asked for a solo queue visible rating, basically so they can see who they're matched with and change the complaint from "this guy has x games played, this guy is a new player, why is he in my game" to "this game has x rating even though he sucks, I'm not at the rating I belong...

    It doesn't increase LR cap, it's just normal resist. But it does make you immune to shock which is fairly useful. For ele bosses what you want is a Saffrel's Frame(it's a shield), Purity of ... aura leveled up, if possible in an alpha howl's helm or with passives that increase aura...

    Made a new account and managed to log in, they redid the tutorial you can now play games against the AI to test the decks out before you pick, also there's Stronghold now as a starting deck. Sanctuary and Academy are both locked though, can't pick them as starting decks. Think I'll go Inferno...

    Risk of Rain

    But he has more effective range and you can cheese shit offscreen with missiles. But yeah Acrid is pretty insane if you get only a few semi decent items, his aoe damage is way above basically everything else.
  34. Pyros

    Risk of Rain

    You don't want to play on easy as you don't get any achievement(well most of them don't work, some do), so you can't unlock classes and items. It takes a bit to get used to, generally you want to not waste time, you should try to complete levels in about 5mins, you can start slacking once you...

    I had it happen in both constructed and arena. I think it'd be faster for them to concede though, just concede on turn 1 you lose they win and that's it, can do it quickly.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I feel Wildstar has been in beta for a lot longer than wow was when it was still capped at 37 or whatever it was. That was beta 2 that's when I joined, and while I'm sure F&F had been going for a while, beta itself was still fairly new. Wildstar beta has been going for a while I think. That said...

    For piety, enfeeble, temp chains if possible, and kill it offscreen. That's how I've seen most people deal with it. Some melee builds just face tank her though, high regen does the trick. Depends on map mods though, multiproj or reduced resists is basically a nope. No idea about spider boss...

    I find rogue removal to be really top notch against the current meta of small mobs, especially the fucking 3/2. Coin 3/2 on turn 1? Backstab into Scrub. Backstab into Evisc clears most mobs for only 2 mana cost too, and while Shiv isn't great the card draw makes it ok especially with a backstab...
