Lots of cool stuff, coaching system is nice and 2 new heroes, great.

Well they added Purity of Fire which apparently would give +4%max fire at lvl 20, which with +50% aura effects would push it to +6% and with the Vitality cost reduction to 40%, might make it fairly viable to run RF again I'd say, but I don't really know the details. Seems mostly the same build...

You don't really have to overlevel anything, or at least not by much, and you would do the same in merciless on softcore because the death penalty is quite rough. I guess you could cheese it by getting a level then going to do whatever so you don't lose any xp since you just lvled, but otherwise...

There hasn't been good launch titles since the SNES basically. I mean there's sometimes decent games, like PS1 had a few ok games but yeah mostly it's shit games.

It's still weekend only level capped beta shit for this right? Didn't get invited as usual but don't have too much interest in playing that kind of beta anyway, wonder if they'll do an open beta for like a week or two before launch or keep it to stupid weekend events like GW2 did. I guess I'll...

Most of the memories I have about housing in UO involved griefing, stacking those items(books I think? boxes maybe) that actually had volume to make a stair to walk into the open courtyard of blacksmith houses and looting them since most people didn't lock the inner doors, walking through the...

All in agility with proc based daggers, assuming they still exist(using bleed mechanic from the first darksouls for example). Definitely gonna be my first or 2nd char.

Well just died on my summoner, hadn't played it in a while so figured I'd do Piety for the quest, was going ok kinda, then at around 20% left she decided to walk into an ice portal while teleporting to a fire portal, and ended up getting both effect. She then chased me down at fire form move...

I honestly don't think I'm downplaying anything. It's still the best trigger gem by far, and is still mandatory for any build if you can afford the sockets. Why would you not cast on damage taken+enduring cry on EVERY character, besides maybe burning discharge where manually using it would be...

Only that they didn't, it was the expected nerf, or at least a way to do it. It still casts spells passively for free, and you can still use a low level gem to proc it on almost every hit, but now the spells are severely nerfed. I thought they would just add a reduced effect % on the gem but it...

Well it is your opinion and you're entitled to it, but no. Yes LoL has more skillshots, 3/4 of them are also easier than the most basic non targetted spell in dota to land. Largely due to the fact dota has turning rates and casting points, which lol has removed entirely/normalized to very quick...

Maybe they should add more secrets, and to every class? Secrets kinda work like instants, other than you have to play them on your turn and your opponent knows they're there, but if there were more it'd be harder to tell what they are(currently it's fairly easy, other than maybe hunter which has...

So since no one answered about the gems, anyone play domination at all and interested in trading for nemesis stuff, or have a few currency stuff I could borrow and give back in a couple of days?

I don't know I feel the objectives stuff were fairly clear, at least as a gamer. The lanes, creeps and pushing system were the same as dota/lol, the objective/collection/spawning special creeps was the same as Alterac Valley(old one). The skulls were easy to understand once I saw it once in...

Meh after watching the video, I don't know, on one hand that looked decently fun, on the other, objective based normalized pvp, on internet? Who the fuck wants to play that? I mean it's not like LoL or Dota where you can have your carry farm up while you're getting trashed and then he, well...

Yeah well it was the obvious way to make the game. How they didn't bother doing this shit 2years ago, or whenever it was in beta, is the hard to comprehend part. And why they picked fucking paladin instead of necro for this expansion, but that's another story. Anyway these "new" additions...

World of Warcraft - BlizzCon Hearthstone Innkeepers Invitational - Twitch Seems to have all the semi finals/finals that were streamed on twitch, only watched a few matches so far.

Anyone playing on Domination? I wanna make a char there for the challenge but I'd kinda like to start with some decent gems instead of having to level multiple accounts and farm act1 shit, I'd give them back/pay for them once I have the currency. List of what I need, mostly common gems that I...

It was posted already, along with the gameplay trailer. I didn't feel it was very good, I mean quality wise and shit it's top notch I guess but it's just a few random characters pretending to fight, none of the hits actually connect, they shoot/throw shit at each other but it's mostly posturing...

Tower defense is another type of game entirely, even though technically you defend towers in these too. Competitive I don't know, you play Hearthstone, it's basically the same, Hearthstone vs MTG is similar to this vs LoL/Dota, at least from the way they described it, so yeah...

Well it's kinda obvious they're gonna do skins, it'll probably be F2P with Riot's monetization, which means lots of skins, and pay or play a bunch to unlock heroes. I fucking hate when they do that but eh.

Yeah so what I expected, they're simplifying the game even more to do something more action oriented that you can play quickly and easily, and not trying to make a direct competition with LoL/Dota. Could be fun but I see it mostly getting boring quickly, a bit like how Hearthstone is pretty fun...

Well from the various leaked shit/teaser/whatever, it seems 3 heroes? Xin, Earth panda and LC or so. Plus something else I guess since they're saying bla bla bla we're excited. Maybe that shit from SC2 where you can play the replays? Or maybe some new gamemodes, or support for modding? They...

It is one of the iconic dota heroes so yeah it makes sense. Also I believe that's the Butcher from Diablo? In D3 they gave him a hook so makes sense they're using it here too. We'll see what they do with the game, it seems they went multiple maps with variations(in one map kerrigan jumps down...

Expensive is relative, Searing Touch wasn't worth much before but people have started buying it more and more and Kripp is playing a build which has a Searing Touch as its main weapon(endurance discharge) so the prices are up. Also fucking pillar of god splitting the chance of getting a searing...

And as I said, neither is necessary. And Sunblast is like 7-10chaos, not an exalt, at least on Nemesis. Searing Touch is really nice for leveling though, but a shitty dagger/wand with +1fire and 30%spell damage does the job just fine, Fire Trap is strong as fuck.

Well a really strong build that doesn't require much gear atm is Traps. You can use a Sunblast Belt to make traps quite a lot stronger, and a Searing Touch for fire traps, but neither is necessary(and you can replace Searing Touch with a +2fire +30-40% spell dmg wand/dagger and be fine too and...

TQ had some pretty cool classes. Loved Dream/Necro or Dream/Warfare. Overall loved Dream. Also liked Occult from the mod Underworld or whatever the name was, that huge super mod that remade everything including the shitty class. I actually played it only recently, for some reason when I heard...

Grim Dawn

I don't think it's frustrating? First playthrough is just, pick whatever, fuck around, get raped by act3 probably, restart and do it better, look up some stuff, use spare gear you stashed, maybe get to cruel act3 then wipe again, rinse repeat. If you put more effort right away you can generally...

They posted the actual numbers for the 1.0 unique chance orb change, seems Soultaker is not on that list so I guess you can chance it off anything, weird that I haven't seen one. I guess that unique challenge is quite a ton harder than it looked like with 3 items(I think all 3 are on the...

Well they made some more rare and some more common. You drop a ton more uniques now too especially with the boss loot change, but the good ones(or well the ones they decided to make rare) are fairly hard to find.

There's also a massive chance you can't chance Soul Taker anymore, at least using a non map white(might be ilvl restricted, basically need 71+), a change they added in 1.0. Your chances of getting a Soul Taker are probably 0 unless you're mapping. Could buy one but on the old leagues at least...

That looks good, however crit EK seems like something you wouldn't want to run on HC. Then again he runs AA and also no chain or fork, so the damage should be controllable a bit, still risky though. Guy playing looked kinda bad I don't know, progressed slowly and apparently has vision issues...

RT is good because missing is an issue if you're not a high dex build. If you have high dex(basically if you go toward the right side of the tree to get duellist/ranger/shadow shit), your hit rate is solid without any modifications so it's not necessary, but is still good as hit rate is capped...

Meh it's a bit of a mixed thing, on one hand if you watch a video/read a guide, you'll spoil the fight quite a lot. On the other, the fight has one mechanic that is fairly unforgiving and not very obvious. You can TP out though, so you could read up on it once you get there. Stats you should aim...

It's a TAD too early to call games that haven't been released turds, unless good graphics > turd in your world in which case you are probably right. If you judge a game by its graphic quality then by all means, 6 and 7 are both turds too as they were extremely good looking in their times...

Corrupted Blood stacks when you attack the mob, so even if it's not hitting you, you can easily get 20stacks by attacking it with high speed. Starting Cruel on nemesis you always want a flask of staunching(remove bleeding) so you can remove it when needed. Otherwise Blind is 75%miss, so yeah it...

You can kite Dominus too, just need to bring the TP scrolls. My Cruel dominus kill on my summoner was ugly as fuck. I think I burned 15TPs. First 2phases went as expected, the initial mobs wiped all my zombies and spectres 10secs into the fight(that's +1 zombies with minion resist, minion...

Well usually people get discouraged in act1 cause it's fairly bland, if you made it to act3 and still don't like the game I would assume it's simply not the game for you. I do find the char building fun, searching for ideas and seeing how they work out, plus everytime you reroll you're better...
