    I think a fairly easy fix to implement(but very hard to balance properly) would simply to have the map tier a rare drops in affects the weighting of the mod tiers that drop on it. Basically run T16maps and get a higher chance of better items on average, so rares might start becoming worth...

    Everything goes in the dresser(or close to). You probably are thinking of the armoire, which is an older system, that only accepts a few specific items. There's icons on the top right of each item tooltip that says wether they go in the dresser(all do but still has an icon), armoire or... I...

    Seems YoshiP in an interview revealed that they are indeed increasing the glamour dresser size to 400 and increasing the amount of glamour plates(no numbers but I'd expect 15, possibly 20 but not that likely). Should help a fair bit, I was getting close to the cap and I mostly collect...

    Windows 10

    Large issue also is as far as I could tell when I looked into it, you basically are losing performance on everything you run on Linux, regardless of how it's run. I guess because optimization is only done on Windows so even games that kinda support Linux out of the box still run worse on Linux...

    Yeah I said most of the time, saw he was streaming too a few days ago, but it's pretty surprising for such a game to basically not have any really "big" streamer. Not Ninja big, but like 3-5k consistent viewers. Although it has started to change a bit, I saw Zeno and Momo got a fair amount of...

    Man 4k to play FFXIV, and yet basically never see any big streamer play it most of the time. Probably has some of the worst numbers for a fairly popular game(500k-ish subs). Maybe some people will jump on that train once the next expansion releases though, I assume they'll increase the bounty...

    Sounds unlikely if you don't take time off but maybe, I don't know. I personally just don't like the idea of being "forced" to play the entire time anyway so I didn't really check. I'd say not SSF might be less competitive than SSF, since SSF has all the streamers and shit. But I don't know for...

    Well definitely Hardcore. For the classes it kinda depends, you might think Berserker is best but a lot of people also think that and you end up with a fair bit of competition. Not too bad but not too good ascendencies might be better, like champion, saboteur, chieftain etc. At least I think it...

    Meh figurines aren't that much different. At the end of the day people do whatever for their hobbies and that's fine, just agree that people telling you about it like you care are really annoying, wether it's video games, fishing or climbing. And depending on the person and the conversation...

    All increased damage is additive, all more damage is multiplicative. If you're using a lightning spell, and all these are Increased, then you have +40% damage. If it's a lightning attack, only 30% since spell damage doesn't work. This part's actually very simple to get(although it's not...

    Borderlands 3

    Yeah they'd need to really fuck up BL3 to be comparable to Anthem. And from the looks of it, they went with "BL2 but with better movement and more character customization(via weapons and skills)", so it's gonna be real hard to fuck that one up. Even if the story sucks, there's still a good...

    To follow up on the Firefox shit, all my stuff was still working fine, now they rolled a "fix" and apparently now all my shit is broken. Good shit motherfuckers. And I'm obviously not alone. How am I supposed to go anywhere without script blocking. Edit: guess there's a temp solution at least...

    I've been playing BLM for the past few weeks for most queues and I really like it. The rotation is simple. Not ARR simple, but still simple. It basically boils down to B3 > B4 > T3 > Foul > F3 > F4x3 > F1 > F4x3, repeat. The only variations are oGCDs and in some cases procs(if you get...

    Last Epoch

    Gonna wait until it's done but looks pretty alright. But I remember playing Grim Dawn in early stages and it was kinda meh until they added more acts and stuff to do. The class system and skill systems look neat though.

    Meh I just did NMs for Pyros, need crystals anyway to make the weapon/armor so it's not like it changes too much. I guess skipping the first few levels so you can unlock the teleports(mostly the middle one and the bottom one, can run to the top shit from the middle one pretty easily) is nice but...

    Just like the PS4, I'll pick it up when there's a really good game for it. Which for PS4 was Bloodborne, and even that I didn't buy right away, and should have waited a bit more since the console price dropped a few months after I bought it. I own like 10 games on PS4 total I think, so really...

    Uh I guess it'll be pretty easy to finish the Cadiro challenge with this shit at least. I'll probably do 85 as usual, that takes a couple of days and then I can go back to doing other stuff until next league. 95 is a bit too long for my taste, and the armor sets look like shit anyway.

    You can solo, but it requires some preparation. First you need to change your magia board. For soloing, you'll want at least one defensive, sometimes 2(later when you have more orbs), so you don't die to shit too quick that's your level. Rest in attack. So say you're fighting a water mob, you...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well the fact the jobs don't play the same? Your eureka elemental level is the same regardless, but you're gonna be soloing a lot easier on a RDM than on a MNK for example, and if you play heal or tank you can do these when grouping up and so on.

    Grim Dawn

    Yeah I've rolled several chars since and I figured out quick it was more efficient to lvl on elite. Also you hit 31 if you do it with Lokarr and a potion. I do ~35mins normal for 28shrines and some quest xp on the way, hit around 40, then I start elite at 40/28 after less than an hour and just...

    If you mean less than 4hours on a fresh league on your own, Raiz did some videos iirc, and there's some guy who made many Kitava kill videos with a variety of skills to show which is viable other than Storm Brand and Winter Orb. The large part of leveling quickly though is learning to stop...

    Yeah doing the story mode is definitely mostly "enough", for the most part. Noteworthy however is that in Stormblood, they decided to add an additional phase (which really is like a full boss) to every raid tier, and they come with cool transitions. I suggest looking them up on youtube after...

    Ultimates are a side thing really, they reuse models from original content(Ultimate Ultima is Ultima obviously with a lot of Garuda/Ifrit/Titan stuff mixed in and Ultimate Coil is Twintania/Nael/Bahamut mixed together). They only reward cosmetic rewards, gold weapons and titles and what not. It...

    There is harder difficulty of the same raids, although it requires clearing them on normal first. Each 8man raid has a Savage version, minus Coil which is a bit weird since it's old, coil was balanced to be pretty hard from the getgo, then they made savage for the 2nd coil only as an experiment...

    Omega for the "EU RP server" sure doesn't have a lot of houses bought, even though it seemed easy to sell overpriced items. When I moved out I bought a house first for the free 3m, and there were a ton of choices in mist(I didn't pay attention to positions but there were a bunch), and then I...

    I'd say the biggest hurdles for this game as a new player is how slow the combat starts and how slow the questing starts. Combat is a snoozefest until 50+ which can be a real downside for some people especially people who are used to mmos and such, but it definitely gets a lot better once you...

    Leves are craft specific. If it's shoes, it's likely only leatherworking(or armorsmithing if it happens to be that). And 8k isn't particularily cheap. Hope 4.57 has Hydatos nerf. That place is fucking dead already out of primetime while Pyros still works fine, but I'm done farming Pyros...

    Yeah shit's stupid not sure how they didn't revert it tbh. There's a reason there's no affixes on Uber Elder, Shaper or Mastermind.

    Monk stances is really easy. Fire does nothing, just roll the damage into the skills or GL, nobody cares. Keep Riddle of Earth for a defensive+GL refresh, don't need fist of earth for anything either. Finally for wind, you can just make tackle always wind tackle, or add a 2nd Riddle of Wind...

    FCs in my experience rarely "run raids". They sometimes have statics within the FC, but a lot of time people join a static with other people on their server/datacenter, based on class needs and such, and don't actually raid with their FC. FC is more or less social, with the buffs being important...

    I could see DRK being OT too, since TBN is one of the best offtanking support ability. They could give them a couple more part of the rework(the debuff shit that heals at the end of its duration/when the mob dies could be reworked into some support shit for example) and it'd work nicely like...

    Yeah BLMs for progression isn't probably a great idea, but you can do RDM on progression and once you know the fight well enough switch to BLM for much much faster kills. Also I'd say there's progression and progression. If you're doing progression 2months after everyone else, you can probably...
