    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    The first couple raid decks they did were pretty all-over-the-board in regards to difficulty, but that was understandable since it was the first foray into such a product. After that, most of the raid decks were rather well-balanced for the cards that were legal when they were printed. If you...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Well, if you went against a WoW TCG raid deck with a starter deck you got your skull crushed. I don't see why it should be any different just because it's a digital TCG.

    Venturebeat: Blizzard delays unannounced MMO until 2016, resets whole project

    There was never actually an MMO under construction. Titan was just their code-word for "Rolling around in a swimming pool filled with money." One of the investors caught on, thus the purge.

    Well, I guess this gives SOE a window to shove EQNext's half-aborted fetus into the world without fear of Titan.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Rotating blocks keep the game fresh and allow new players to join without facing too monumental a stumbling block to actually competing. Anyone who is opposed to them, should be in the Everquest thread(s) leghumping AA's "New Player Repellent Spray" effect.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    I am just befuddled that they went with Magic's land-system when their company has the rights to a vastly superior resource system. VS/WoW's resource system is pretty much the best standardized progression* resource system in the CCG-sphere. *=resources accumulate at a fixed rate (or have...

    There should have been Warders in AhnQiraj so that the first group per server to clear the raid also closed the raid off for the server forever. It would have been delicious.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Eh, the King slot is unlimited, and all you miss out on is the free draft each week. Which will likely eventually be worth it if you play for a full year (assuming expansions are released at a decent clip), but if you play for 3-months when the game comes out or whatever, or if you go infinite...

    Testing is still being done on Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker as an offhand for Brewmaster Monks on high-physical damage bosses. It was pointless last expansion, when all tanks applied the Attack Speed reduction debuff that Thunderfury applies (Which was a direct stacking change...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    If all equipment is PVE only that'll make me sad. The number of permutations Equipment looks to cause in card effect/deckbuilding seemed to promise a ridiculous amount of deck customization and unique approaches. A 350 card base set may sound like a lot, but it really isn't enough to make that...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Dailies are fine when they're an accelerated way to do something (gold-farming, rep-farming, justice/valor-farming) for people without much time each day, and when other non-daily-gated options are present to perform the same activities. When there are 43+ of them (bye bye "not much time to...

    It's odd to see testing for Power for various classes spitting out different results. GWF testing was showing Power at the level cap as a Percentage increase in damage based on Power/Constant, rather than a flat damage increase for every X power. Armor Pen is probably going to cap out a pretty...

    Random amusing thing I noticed for guardian fighters. They have a +100% Attack Power feat, but their purple gear is almost devoid of attack power. I wonder what their "zomg deeeps" is like in attack power non-purples. Also, the Ogre Run foundry quests, the ogres have an aggro radius of...

    The 20 ogre runs are still producing better EXP than normal questing for me, dunno if that's just 1-ogre short of the cap or something. They're boring as hell, though.

    The instigator tree for Great Weapon Fighter is going to be broke as a joke if they ever give Guardian Fighters some semblance of reliable AOE aggro. +50% Power? That's a pretty big % scalar increase to a core combat stat, especially when the class isn't balanced around having it up 100% of...

    It sucks in the mid teens to roughly 34. Then, at 35 you become liquid death again and outdamage every other class in anything but hardline single-target encounters. Rogue's the only Pure Striker in the base set-up, you pay for your increased hardiness with decreased damage on single-target...

    Lumie wouldn't say it's a pre-existing double amputee. It's obviously a lizard-man, since they can regrow lost limbs. No great loss. That's why he's looking so cool about it. Fucking lizardmen.

    How long until Diablo 4? I agree that it seems like they're just letting it ride. Maybe they'll have the expansion have segregated servers or something so that expansion characters can start in an untainted environment, or something?

    43+ dailies each day for the first month pretty much burnt out any desire I ever had to level an alt. That, and the reality of tokens/loot composition in a steady 10-man raid group meaning there might be one other class I'd ever be able to potentially play without screwing up the raid's loot...

    The complete inability of LFR players to stand in giant blue swirly circles while an orb ever so slowly arcs through the sky towards it is mindboggling. Every fight where there's bad shit you don't want to stand in, they stand in it. The fight where you want to stand in the bad shit...

    As a melee-lover in these kind of games, I just find POE's monster targeting awkward. I always seem to be slipping off-target while wailing on things, or swinging into air a foot in front of the mob.
