    That seems like a weird way to level up, I think it'd work just as well to level spectral throw with heralds for flat damage and then switch to poison variant later, rather than try to use both Blight(spell) and Viper Strike(attack) on the same char, with Viper Strike being fairly weapon...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Unless you had a fair amount of paladins, paladins had to buff 40people 1 by 1, that's a full minute just casting buffs constantly. Shamans having to drop 3 totems every 30secs without any targetting needed(positionning though) isn't really on the same scale at all. Paladins got a fuckton better...

    JRPGs

    Technically Ys is one big story, but each game tends to be disjointed in time so they're not needed to be played in order. Just you'll miss some references and shit like that but the stories are mostly self contained. Switch version has some FPS issues iirc, although shouldn't be too too bad.

    Acer XB321HK. It's only 60hz but I wanted to try 4k and it's not like you can run 4k at more than 60FPS in most games anyway, so figured it'd be fine until graphics cards get so good they run 4k 120FPS average on new shit, which should still be a fair amount of time away.

    Yeah I built up my new computer, said I didn't have a key when I installed because I read I could buy it after installing anyway, and it just launched fine. It blocks some of the cosmetics shit like desktop background and taskbar customization but other than that it kinda does nothing which is...

    The good thing about Neversink is there's a lot of basic filters on the website so you don't have to tweak too much if you're playing casually, you can just get a stricter one when you feel there's too much garbage, and you can grab various themes depending on your tastes. And if you do want to...

    Just finished assembling my PC and setting up windows and shit. Launched MHW to check it out, what a change from my old ass PC. Went from i4650k or something like that with a GTX 770 to Ryzen 2700x and RTX 2080ti. 1680x1050 low option 80%rendering scale pixel paste garbage to 4k everything...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    New collab coming near the end of the year, FFXV x FFXIV, that's the FFXV part of the collab, FFXIV version will come later I guess

    The Final Fantasy Mega Thread - Now playing FFXV

    The article seems to extrapolate a lot of stuff. The writeoff is apparently because they cancelled all the side projects so everything they had started has been cancelled to refocus on just AAA games. Probably cutting off stuff like animes and what not. Like it mentions stuff being down with XIV...

    Lost Ark Online

    This has a lot more mmo elements than D3. It's more like a mmo using Diablo 3 combat and perspective. Korean mmo though so don't expect crazy sandbox shit, it's mostly your basic quest based instance based mmo, but you can run around and see other people questing like you can in a normal mmo...

    Grim Dawn

    Crucible is boring AND you have to pay for it. And you still have to go collect shrines(you can buy I think it is, 10points from crucible vendor?). And yeah one way I tested some high lvl char last time I was playing was just to backup my char then edit everything. That's the good thing about...

    Not sure that makes a big difference, if anything if he was unemployed/freelancing before he had plenty of time to do path of building updates, and now that he actually has a real job, he won't have as much time, and they're not bringing it into the game/making it an official app/integrating it...

    I haven't seen a good list of what is offered in the shop yet, not sure if it's deactivated during the open beta? They have a website but it's only a preview of the shop. Things it has atm: Avatars(costumes) with stats, unique mounts, system where you spend x and get rewards for each tier...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    That's in Paris. Amazon tends to be pretty good generally, especially the same day delivery I haven't had a problem with that yet, but as soon as they start using the national postal service stuff(La Poste/Chronopost) it's pretty random wether I'm getting the package or not, and that's what most...

    Path of Exile

    Generally speaking there's no reason to play standard, especially early on, everything is overpriced and you're just missing out on whatever the current league offers. At the end of the Delve league, all your delve shit is moved to standard, and they do that every league, so you never lose stuff.

    Oh right I forgot about banish and curse to cancel fear, been so long. I remember being able to control a fuckton of stuff if it wasn't undead though(so sadly not much in strat/scholo) and yeah it was pretty nice. Problem of warlock in vanilla is all the fucking soul drain management bullshit...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Trapping mobs on pull was pretty easy, just arcane shot after tank pulled, or run up to the mob and trap them. Could also just pull yourself, then feign death once something was trapped. You also didn't need to sheep pull, was easy enough to precast sheep so it'd hit after tank pulled. Mage...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    More deliveries rustling, delivery time left is about an hour, guy calls me, says he'll be there in 30mins, I'm like sure whatever that's fine. Wait 30mins, nothing, probably late. Wait a full hour, still nothing. Check delivery site, says he delivered it right when he called me. I'm like the...

    Grim Dawn

    I doubt many people play it, and it doesn't have any sort of matchmaking or whatever have to connect with other people old school. Hacked items it'll depend on who you play with basically, but there's nothing preventing them.

    PS4 announcement was expected, a week ago or whatever it was on the Australian review board list or some shit I saw articles about it. Doesn't really do a whole lot, and the Xbox version still has a bunch of issues supposedly which I assume the PS4 won't fix for now. I wouldn't consider playing...

    24 is always pretty easy to do, it's 32 that's retarded in terms of time. 24 you can generally get done by the time you hit 90 or so, maybe even before. You'll have to just liquidate your wealth to buy some stuff but generally it's pretty easy to do if you go to trade 820/general 820 for...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The potentially reasonable assumption is that, once league became popular as fuck, they wanted to make a MOBA, but not dota, which they thought wouldn't be popular because it's way harder and less casual friendly. Blizzard has been a casual oriented company for a long time, and them having a...

    I'm gonna be getting a new phone soon-ish, I'm an old fuck when it comes to phones, my current one I've had for like 10years and it's not a smartphone, just some old shit, I only use it for calling people. But anyway since I'm switching plans I'll get a new phone with it. Questions are some...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    They had said even before the Blizzcon debacle they were working on multiple projects and they said during blizcon they were, there's no reason not to believe it. The issue is they didn't announce shit in the end, so nothing's guaranteed. D4 might go the way Titan went where it's in dev for like...

    Gwent - Standalone Game

    I assume a lot of people playing Gwent might also move to Artifact when that releases, or go play MTGA if Artifact sucks too. Not many twitch viewers and not much hype anywhere I look.

    Path of Exile

    They said they don't want to make the game "easier" with those, just harder basically and being able to use old league mods would make it easier, or would kill standard economy(run Nemesis, farm all the headhunters you can hold, this kind of shit). It's really mostly going to be limited to like...

    It says currently running challenge league. So you can do Delve right now for example, instead of just standard. This means you can run this at any point and not be losing out on challenges and what not.

    Path of Exile

    For the simple answer since Caliane explained mechanics, a wand with spellpower or potentially a dagger with global crit(but crit isn't going to do much for you until you stack a lot of it). So mostly a wand, at least for leveling. 2wands even probably early on, can switch to a shield later...

    Pretty fun games to watch. I liked how Serral grinded small advantages over time to end up in lategame with like 2-3k more gas than his opponents, especially against Rogue.

    Monster Hunter: World

    Generally speaking, yes. First if you want to release it, you need 3/3, otherwise you're only getting part of the value(33% with 1/3 etc), and that's even worse. Sleep is also kinda meh unless you take time to bomb every sleep, not sure it's any faster though than just doing more damage on every...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Sleep isn't elemental, it's status. Status generally suck dicks. Can be useful to proc stuff every now and then but the loss of damage makes it generally not worth it, although with Zorah gamma armor blast looks rather decent. Status can be good for support builds but that's gonna be SnS or...

    I think I vaguely remember them saying it was some temporary shit for now and they had more coming when they added that. But I guess it's not top priority while requiring a fair amount of coding and shit since they'd have to rework how everything is generated in new leagues ahd what not...

    I have like 250 remove only tabs in standard. If you don't play standard you can just ignore the whole stuff, although if you change your mind in the future, it'd take a while to sort that shit out. It is kinda annoying to do early league stuff but they made it a bit better with the shift right...

    Artifact - The DOTA Card Game

    They pushed the beta back because the tournament system wasn't ready and the tutorial wasn't either I believe. We'll see, although timing isn't that great since I was reading there's a dota major running at the same time.
