    Nintendo 3DS News, Games, etc.

    It's kinda like the DSi stuff, Nintendo always does like an semi upgrade inbetween new consoles on their portable shit(well not always, but often). It has some interesting features, but atm the exclusive shit is only Xenoblade Chronicles, which is a port of the Wii game(and is a downgrade...

    The Xenoblade Chronicles Appreciation/Anticipation thread! 3DS/Wi U - YES

    I haven't tested it but I read like some news on Reddit that said it massively improved in the last year, they fixed a lot of issues they had and found new ways to do things and what not, some games that didn't even run now run fine and shit, so yeah should be better.

    The Xenoblade Chronicles Appreciation/Anticipation thread! 3DS/Wi U - YES

    Dolphin has been improved a lot in the past few months from what I read, so it probably doesn't stutter near as much. Unless you meant you've been playing it recently. Anyway Wii U will be worth it just because of the new Xenoblade. New video they released today which for some reason...

    Guild Wars 2

    Well they added some fractals at some point, once, after the initial fractals I mean. They added a couple of new zones during some of the events, like one during season 1(in Orr, with like corals and shit) and one during season 2(the oasis/desert stuff, looks really nice). They might have added...

    Guild Wars 2

    On the other hand, the game is massively profitable, judging by the numbers they published. I only quickly took a look at it but it looked like the game was making 20times Wildstar's revenue(granted Wildstar is pretty fucking dead but still). Have to remember they released this in China not long...

    Most of the connection issues lately are routing to the servers shit, a lot of comcast people affected but a lot of other people not affected at all(including myself playing from europe). Though the servers crash from time to time, but overall it's fairly stable. US internet on the other hand...

    Heroes of the Storm

    It's only if you're partied. If you party with retards who leave, then you have only yourself to blame. At least that's my understanding, Dota does the same kinda, if someone abandons, everyone who's in the same party also get an abandon, to prevent people rotating who abandons and shit.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They're fairly close and depending on the fight higher. Like any fight where there's a decently long aoe phase, you can edge out monks by abusing Doton and Katon, so T13 tends to give a small edge to ninjas for example, and I think there might be Greased Lightning issues during certain mechanics...

    Guild Wars 2

    Actually thinking about it, it's probably not an expansion. They'll rerelease the game, with the season of living story included, maybe a new quest at the start that sums up living story 1, free access without logging in to all season 3 living story(which the logo hints at) and maybe a bunch of...

    That's what I said, 10-15secs(I'm not sure about duration and I'm crafting so don't wanna bother switching classes to check) every minute. That's assuming you have 2 arcanists too, as the actual cooldown is longer than the debuff, think it's 1:30 cooldown so you need 2 people to rotate it, and...

    They do stack. Virus also has poor uptime, it's like 10secs every minute or whatever the duration is. Dragon Kick is "permanent", at least as long as the monk is attacking. It reduces overall raid damage on every encounter by a fair amount, and Mantra helps a ton on the larger predictable burst...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Piercing debuff for your DPS that does the least damage is poop. Monks gets Mantra(+20% healing on the whole raid for 15secs, insanely useful for the big aoe phase transitions which happen in basically EVERY fight since it increases both Succor shields and Medica II HoTs) as well as Dragon Kick...

    Guild Wars 2

    I don't see how it could not be an expansion, they made a logo. Maybe they're just going to sell a new box with the living story content unlocked in it or some shit, but that sounds unlikely. Seems like an expansion that follows the current living story(based on the little I've seen from it and...

    Generally speaking, most people don't run double anything, it's bad for loots and it's not necessarily good. Double monks run into massive TP issues, and the bard then has to sing TP song most of the time, making it rough on healers and reducing magic damage if you have a caster due to no time...
  17. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    All the songs are good, though for different situations. MP song is great in final coil due to healers going through mana pretty badly on progression content, at least until 2.5 welfare epics, TP song is great if you have 3 TP based classes and especially if you don't have a Ninja(but even with...

    Yeah you can use it in combat, though it's annoying cause it considers you in a party with the chocobo, so it eats a party slot, you can't queue for dungeons and you can't get invited. Also need to resummon it every now and then, but that's not too much of an issue. Chocobos gain levels, you...

    Well relatively, it's not so bad. I just had to buy more shit and recraft it. The profit on the item is about 1.5millions anyway, so I'll still gain money in the end, just only 300k instead. Was the 2nd mistake in a row, I was still thinking about the first, I was making a vanya silk HQ for...

    That's kinda weird. In my FC, all the RP shit is kept to linkshells or tells or whatever. I see them retards hugging each other behind the house or whatever every now and then, and some people sure like spamming those stupid emotes that look like they're kissing each other while doing weird...

    With the proper preparation, you can one shot them. Not much of a point in playing the game like that though.

    Have you heard of the mouse peripheral? It is quite the revolutionary invention. You click people, and bam they're selected. Seriously though, that's all there is to it. I don't think anyone heals by using the F keys on PC. You can also make mouse over macros, though macros don't queue so that...

    Controller is definitely nice for gathering, lot better than mouse/kb. It's especially good for fishing if you have a controller that can rumble, since it rumbles when you get a bite so you don't really need to pay any attention to fish. It's alright for casual pve shit too, like grinding...

    You're kinda expected to use a keyboard even on PS4. You can kinda stitch together shit premade sentences but it's clunky and obviously won't convery stuff very well.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah well if you think there's a lot to do now, you'll have fun once you hit 50 cause there's so much shit to do then. At 30 btw you can unlock combat chocobo. Useful for soloing as WHM, as it speeds up shit a bit, though he also leeches xp from you and at low level I guess he doesn't do that...

    You just stop looting them and buy them from the vendor in the first town in Hinterlands. None of the tier1 shit is worth looting since it's so cheap and you don't need that many anyway.

    DOTA 2

    Slowing people increases DPS, kinda. It's not an item you'd build if you didn't want to counter stuff, but Diffusal is never an item you build if you don't plan on using it to counter shit. Just meant, it's better on Jugger than on some other heroes as he's not really that item dependant, he has...

    Smite

    I caught a few games but they were all insanely retarded stomps. Like 18/0 stomps and shit like that, was kinda weird. Guess there's a massive disparity in skills between the teams, hopefully gets better when the good teams play each other. Also funny that NA is actually good at this.

    Jugg does well with a Diffusal though, and you can diffusal during ulti iirc.

    DOTA 2

    There's most likely a patch before TI like every year, and unless between now and then he stops getting banned every time or FPed, I don't see him not getting nerfed. Don't care either way, the hero is pretty fun to watch, not a 40mins ricing split push illusion stuff that leads to boring ass...
  31. Pyros

    DOTA 2

    Oh yeah he's getting nerfed. Wouldn't be too surprised if IF just removed one of the buff, probably the dmg one, and see how it plays out from there.

    Megaman X race looks all over the place, pretty funny. One guy died on the first stage(the intro one, not even a real stage), another picked the wrong stage after Iceman, cool stuff.

    Well the books are gay as fuck too, since they require a bunch of rare FATEs, so you have to clear FATEs to make them spawn, or you can afk and wait but it can take like 3-4hours for them to spawn. Obviously unless you're an EQ nostalgia kind of guy, you'll love that shit if you are. Also have...

    It was added when they added the low level duty roulette shit, as a way to promote it I guess. It's fucking idiotic though. Mind you, you have to do that shit a lot if you do your relic quest, on 2 different steps too. The story fillers are like, really bad. The story itself I think is pretty...

    There might be a level but I'm not sure. Maybe something about story progress? Anyway you can check for eligibility before you actually transfer, so just check, you don't have to pay and shit until everything's confirmed and locked in place. Edit: I think I remember, it's only that you have...

    It's 1millions plus 100k on retainers iirc for gold, which means if you have any money you're gonna have to convert it. Check prices but shit like savage might/aim IV, craft/gather IV, mastercraft demimaterias, fieldcraft demi III and such are a great way to transfer money since they sell very...

    DOTA 2

    It's a useful item to increase damage during ult and to increase farm, has to be used smartly but well that's the item really. Jugger benefits from being invuln during ult and magic immune during spin so you can mitigate the downside a bit. I could see not leveling ward right away since stats...
  39. Pyros

    DOTA 2

    Well for stats to be worth it over leveling crit, you'd need some math. It'd pretty much never be worth it over ward. I could see it be worth it versus spin fairly easily as spin damage is only relevant for a very short period of time and if you're not actively trying to get kills, it's not even...

    DPS tends to be slightly inferior, especially due to songs, but very useful and very good overall for any activity. Lots of bards around though, so not necessarily a sought after class, I mean, kinda is, but so many bards it's not hard to find one, while finding good healers or tanks or even DPS...
