    I don't think you restart the atlas ever, it's just an additional new system on top of normal maps. The thing with the Atlas over current system is you can +5levels maps(so you could like +5 T14 and they'd be crazy xp, or you could +5 gorge and they'd be even better xp than currently, or you can...

    The time for the reveal shouldn't have changed, it's a press embargo, not linked to ingame events or anything. Time is a bit weird on it(I guess it's just based on saturday morning in NZ). It's in 5hours and 30minutes from now.

    DOTA 2

    On time between games, have to also consider that sometimes teams want to play again right away and not give the enemy team time to recover. In this case for example, sure maybe EG wanted to take a break, but maybe they also wanted to press their psychological advantage. After a game like this...

    DOTA 2

    They should probably put the hero zoom camera thing in a window while still showing the game when they're showing players. And replays do kinda break the action a bit especially when they're long but stuff is still happening. Not super important stuff, but you want to know if they went back to...

    Path of Exile

    Chris said 3weeks after the reveal(although that was a little while ago). And I think the differentiation he's making is what exactly happens in 2.4. It's what they call an expansion, and it's a major patch, but it's not a new act. Act5 will be coming later. This will basically be like...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Didn't see it mentionned but there's also a 100% xp bonus when leveling any class that's lower level than your highest. Or I think it was 100%, been a while. Changes to 50% once you reach 50. So while you don't get quest xp anymore, it goes pretty fast doing fates or dungeons. Dungeons...

    Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

    I don't remember them falling off. But I wasn't talking about damage grenades either. There's heal grenades, CC grenades and iirc charm grenades, and all these are broken as fuck when used properly, and even if you miss a throw, you're simply adding a small disadvantage that you usually can...

    Divinity Original Sin Enhanced Edition

    It's been a while since I replayed the game and I forgot about most of it, but pretty sure it was the same. They did nerf endgame melees a lot, but they're still far ahead when buffed properly and mages are mostly relegated to utility with some decent aoe damage potential on the side. The...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Can probably find a powerlevel easily atm. I'm in the same boat kinda, I logged in, started leveling, then logged out at lvl 20, just didn't feel like doing it anymore. But the thing is I don't think I'll bother with the season at all. It's pretty much the same as the past 2 seasons. And I don't...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    As pointed out, do your main story quests. A lot of the game features are gated behind those quests. Shit like your mount, your bank, the ability to sell stuff on the marketplace(which is the same as your bank in this game), a lot of the dungeons and trials and shit like that. That and class...

    Timewalking has literally nothing to do with XIV hard modes. I feel you've never done any of the hard modes since it doesn't look like you understand what they are and instead assume it's like some scaling of old dungeons like wow apparently does. Scaling exists, it's done automatically, you can...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Haven't played wow in too long to tell, but judging from the list of dungeons and raids as well as new features, Heavensward has more content than Warlords currently, and Warlord was released 8months before. If you mean to compare ALL of wow's content to FFXIV's entire content, yeah well, no...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Hard mode is just the name for the dungeons, they're different dungeons, using some of the same assets. It's not like they take an existing dungeon, slap a few mechanics, maybe add a boss, and that's your hard mode. It's a full new dungeon. And one of the 2 dungeons every patch is an entirely...

    They said they're working on that actually. Don't think it'll make it, but maybe later. Basically so you can race whenever you want, just limited to say 1run of this or that per week or whatever.

    Total War: Warhammer

    Yeah I got kinda bored playing Chaos, it's better played after other factions, but even then it's kinda meh imo. There were some good parts, and the combat was pretty fun since I like some of their units(my dragon ogre only army in endgame was hilariously broken). Other factions are definitely...

    Chris posted on reddit that they'll be revealing expansion stuff in 5days, so friday. I assume NDA is US based, although might be region specific, but anyway yeah, new stuff, excitement, yay.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think it changed since I last played, but basically paladin had slightly better mitigation sometimes, but way worse damage all the time, so the downsides outweighted the upsides, making them an inferior choice for pretty much anything. On the other hand, short of whatever the current...

    The RPG Thread

    Definitely not a RPG, although it has RPG elements(leveling, items, that kind of shit). It's a beat em up/side scroller. In some ways similar to the old Castlevanias(the NES/SNES ones, not the DS metroid-like ones) or Ghost n Goblins. I really liked it, but yeah it's repetitive, like most games...

    DOTA 2

    I don't think it'd be worth it for EG to risk their name just to make some betting money when they still have a shot at winning the whole thing, and getting banned forever from Valve event if it came to light which basically means never having a dota team again since it's pretty much the same...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah I guess you might be able to run there right away. Could probably test it but too fucking lazy, I'll just do it normal, find boss bounty, then do halls till 11 or whatever, then do a rift, then do leoric. I don't do fucking fields farm with bonus xp thingie either, I just do rifts, I just...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    There were things about D2, but recently there's been tinfoil hatting saying that Blizzard might have been hinting at Diablo 4 instead. Specifically in one goodies bag they sent recently with stuff for every game, there was Diablo dices, and one of them was a D4 dice, and it was misprinted in a...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Doesn't make too much of a difference. Also not sure if it drops with a socket before 15 or not? Since you can't get sockets on normal helms before that, but since it's a legendary it might have different rules. Main thing is if you're off a bit of xp while running to Leoric, you don't have to...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I'll do DH, although WD is tempting. FoK looks boring as shit, but so is Garg, and since I'm mostly only doing the journey, I think I'll just UE/Marauder to whatever GR it is you need. Might switch to FoK for like the last 5 or whatever, but no need to do everything with it, and I'm not going...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Think this season WD is probably top tier if you want to do groups and shit, garg HT with the ring of emptiness or whatever, I only quickly looked at it. If you just want to do the journey, DH is probably easier/faster, although WD is still good for that too. That's really all I've seen, but not...

    Total War: Warhammer

    Orcs are the worst geographic start. They're surrounded on all sides and their initial region is a shitfest to defend because the dwarves/orcs can tunnel all around the fucking mountains and attack everywhere at once. Dwarfs are a bit similar but not as bad cause the other dwarfs tend to be...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Agreed on them releasing their shit on other consoles, but at the same time I'm fine with their next handheld being able to connect to a TV. I really wish the 3DS did that cause there's a ton of great games on it(most not by Nintendo, at least in what I bought) but it's a pain in the ass playing...

    Overwatch

    Funny he became a player on basically the best team, I played a lot of games during beta with him. With my shitty sleep schedule I'd often play during the night and I had him in almost every game. He kinda had to handicap himself by playing tanks though, cause everytime he switched to a char...

    Overwatch

    The last few days of overwatch competitive almost didn't see a single game without a D-Va on both teams. Some maps she was switched out for Rein/Zarya, but a lot were D-Va/Zarya or D-Va/Rein. And yeah very few mercy, mostly Lucio+Zen everywhere. For damage, it seems to be mostly...

    DOTA 2

    Well the reason is fairly simple, it's not like you can make the jump and actually be good at dota without at least I don't know, 2 years of practicing hard. And even then who knows if you'll be competitive. Plus you have to consider a lot(all?) of the pro players in lol have salaries. They...

    Overwatch

    Alternating defense matrix is only going to work once though, unless he's dumb as shit. Since there's a cooldown on defense, he can just wait it out, and shoot as soon as you drop it. It's a bit like hooking Zarya, you shoot her once+melee for the combo after the hook, but then you don't fire...
  34. Pyros

    Overwatch

    At the same time, unless you have full charge, Zarya beam tickles on D-va's mech due to how small ticks of damage interact with flat damage reduction on armor. And she has no real way to prevent D-Va from just running past her/away either. She does well at making it so D-Va can't rush down a...

    Overwatch

    I don't think Reaper is a liability, and in fact most matches I've seen had one or two reapers(on each team obv). With D-Va being everywhere and no more Justice, you do need something to clear out shit quickly and reaper tends to be it. But yeah Pharah is pretty much dead with the McCree buff...

    Torrents

    Yeah but what I liked about KAT is I could get both movies and TV there, I'd check the front page, the new episodes would have a lot of seeds so they'd be there, and I'd check the movies list too see if anything came out on DVD that I'd want to see, mostly super heroes movies and shit like that...

    Damn that sucks, I was using KAT for pretty much everything, now I have to find another torrent site that has a good frontpage so I can tell what comes out without looking somewhere else. Any thoughts?

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    It was advertised really poorly, had no hype, and considering it's mostly multiplayer(it has single player campaign and stuff, but it's very so so if you don't play multi from what I've played during beta), that kinda kills it. It sold poorly, and then Overwatch came, and it was basically over...

    Ana is really fun, but seems kinda hard to play well, I've had good and bad games. Sleep dart is annoying as shit to land, although stupidly strong when you do, even if people are shooting at the target, it's like a 1sec disable similar to roadhog hook, and if they're not it lasts an eternity...

    I Am Setsuna - July 19th PS4/PC

    Yeah the reviews are a bit mixed, but mostly positive. It's not a groundbreaking RPG, but looks fairly alright. And unlike most "fairly alright" JRPGs releasing, it's not too cutesy/anime.
