    GC seals are good for ventures and lucis materials if you're into crafting, that's about it. I mean there's a few more things you can buy like the +xp crafting/gathering consumables and spiritbinding potions but it's fairly specific and no point in stocking up. Retainer ventures are probably the...

    Overwatch

    Well yeah I guess they're trying to show off the character at their "best", and judging from the video, I would say bots or bad players also(which isn't very surprising in blizzard alphas and shit). It's not really meant to show off much more I think. They're all one sided stomp games though so...

    I would probably not even do Zenith, it's like what 300soldiery or something, for a 10ilvl upgrade, not worth it if you ever plan on getting a sold weap(and you probably should). Arguably though, you're a lot better off just buying one of the crafted i70 weapons, it's roughly the same price as a...

    Leviathan is probably not changing, you can already convert i100(ST) so yeah. Rest I don't know, maybe maybe not, it's glamour stuff anyway. I had already started cleaning my retainers last time I was playing, I auctionned all my crafting materias and most of the valuable monster drop...

    Kinda expected the 24hours maintenance. Considering how bored I am when I login, I don't really mind much tbh. I'm more inclined to think it won't have as many issues with that kind of maintenance versus like 6hours or whatever too. I'm sure it'll have issues once it's up, but I think we should...

    Oh right was thinking of BC for some reason with vanilla at 60 then 10levels, so equivalent to heavensward, but right you had to do BC first. That said you replaced that armor pretty quick iirc, the DK one. Like by Nagrand and shit you were already fully replaced I think. Anyway they might or...

    Well it isn't quite the same as wow since you start at 30 and the old cap is 50, while DKs only started like 5levels under the cap or whatever(and got like 3levels in the starting zone iirc). They don't even have to really give them any armor, they can just use old armor just fine, I just feel...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Oh this released today on consoles I guess? I saw it on twitch I was like wtf, and it wasn't just like one big streamer testing it it was a bunch of smaller streams. I guess console gamers are kinda desperate if they're hyped for a game that flat out failed already.

    Dark Souls 3

    Coming back to this, apparently more shit was leaked and it does say Early 2016 for the planned release date.

    You're not going to make a whole lot of money out of these regardless if they sell well or not, plus they might have armor rewards during their class quests since they're kinda weird. I mean you might make some money, but it'll be pretty crappy amounts. Weapons on the other hand will probably...

    There's nothing from THM past Swiftcast/26. Conjurer is probably fine at 8 too, Stoneskin is shit without the Stoneskin trait WHMs get.
  12. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Conjurer THM, and you do need THM to 26 for swiftcast for healers in pretty much every case, since rezing in combat without swiftcast is a pain in the ass.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I guess some people might take this time to level some of the older classes, especially since queues for DPS for once should be decently fast(seems there's a lot more people interested in DRK/AST than Machinist, has Ninja been held for this expansion it would have been worse I think). But yeah I...

    E3 2015

    If they announced it now I would assume early 2016 like say march/feb in japan? 1year after Bloodborne, seems fine if they reuse the engine. I don't think I'd mind if Dark Souls became a yearly franchise tbh. As a reminder, Dark Souls 2 came out march 2014. Bloodborne came out march 2015. So...

    You can actually survive that room fairly easily even with shit gear. Well semi shit gear, if it's lvl 25 white gear probably not, but otherwise it's doable, the purple shit reduces damage taken A LOT which is how the thing is even doable in the first place. That said DD first room is PF stuff...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Too much overlap with WD though. I guess it's not impossible since they did Crusader which was very similar to Monk in the first place, but they also kinda missed the chance to do Necromancer with the death themed expansion. Also not sure they're ever doing an expansion again, probably but no...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Out of all the online communities, mobas are generally accepted as the worst, closely followed by console FPS and shit like that. The Duning-Kruger effect is at its max potential when you play a game that forces you to play in random teams for the whole duration of the game(quitting tends to be...

    DOTA 2

    Is leshrac winrate even that high? I think I see him losing just as much as he's winning, and the only consistent thing is that he's always farming a fuckton of stuff. His stats in the entire 6.84patch seems to be 59% winrate which is slightly high, but that includes a bunch of matches from...

    Only leveling dungeon drops can do that, pinks or greens I forgot which, I think pinks, are like generic item that can roll DoW or DoM stats. Everything at cap is unique and always drops with the same stats.

    Grim Dawn

    It's worth the money if you like the genre, it has enough content atm kinda. Probably might as well wait until they release act3 though, then it'll have most content in.

    DOTA 2

    Yeah I alt tabbed cause it looked kinda over then heard tobi yelling and they were decimating Mouz inside their own base, bunch of buybacks > boots of travel back into the fight and shit, looked quite crazy.

    Heroes of the Storm

    It's LoL lingo for AD(attack damage) Carry. Basically heroes that do most of their damage through their normal attacks rather than skills. The other type of carry in LoL is AP carry, spell based carries. The distinction was made because originally in dota, there was only one type of carry, the...

    Considering they all have lengthy cooldowns, not really no. Aetherial also has a delay to it so it's best used during a GCD and you need to have correct positionning before you need to use it. SMN can reposition at will by using Ruin 2 as a filler, BLM has to reposition when they get a proc...

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    Is the permanent retcon like something you have to log in to get or just a feature? I don't really play this anymore but I'd want one of these for sure if I ever picked the game up.

    The Bard's Tale 4

    It probably wouldn't be that easy no, not for this genre and not the same kind of funding they'll get from the kickstarter. And really what difference does it make, they've already started working on the game and are probably getting the money from the kickstarter earlier in developement than if...

    DOTA 2

    This ODPixel guy is getting to cast a lot of stuff, popped out of nowhere a few months ago. Kinda like him, his accent's nice to listen to, he talks fast to do play by play and he doesn't try hard to show off his "knowledge", or lack of as it seems to be the case(unlike say Ayesee who's always...

    Other than the early access no. That said I'm not too sure how they're handling their servers shit and what not, and if they're like blocking normal accounts during early access or what. I would assume no but eh. Unless you have major money issues though, it's not like it really costs more to...

    The Bard's Tale 4

    Yeah wasn't too sure about backing this since I figured I could just buy it later, but since it comes with a copy of Wasteland 2 and I planned on buying that eventually, it's 20$ well spent. Only lasts until 6AM PST on June 3rd though.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It'll be equally useful, which is not very much if we consider current content as an example. Unless DRK get their own crit reduction, I don't see why it would be more or less useful, it's a defensive cooldown after all. It is however fairly useless for the most part in the current version, and...

    Oh no, the story is the story, coil is raiding stuff. I mean coil has a story too, but it's separate from the main storyline, it's worth checking out on internet though if you don't plan on doing it, has a bunch of cool cutscenes including a CGI one. The story keeps going with a bunch of...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You definitely haven't completed the main story. I mean, you did complete the 2.0 story, but for heavensward you need to complete all the main story, which goes up to 2.5 patch, so there's a lot of stuff after. As for reading about the changes, probably reddit or the official heavensward site or...

    Moogle is also the unofficial french server, so about half the server speaks french in shouts and stuff.

    Make sure you're restarting the same account and shit, their stuff is weird sometimes. Go to Mogstation not the Squareenix site, and make sure you select your original license to reactivate. I wouldn't think you could use a recruitment code but maybe.

    Gilgamesh is the most populated US server, but that also makes it hard to get into unless you server transfer, and you might end up with pretty shitty queues for the expansion.

    E3 2015

    The thing I'm most looking forward is the sideshow from Square FFXIV team, revealing the patch notes of the expansion. But I guess I haven't really followed if I should be interested in anything this E3, it just didn't feel very interesting. I'm not really into Fallout, I haven't bought a Wii...

    Why would it be for 50+, they wouldn't be doubling anything, the quests don't exist, they'd just be some value. They're doubling existing quest rewards, and probably only 1-49 ones.
  39. Pyros

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah but you get what is it, 50% bonus xp for kills or whatever on chars that are lower level than your max, so it goes quite a bit faster. But it's kinda grindy doing FATEs over and over, I didn't mind it too much though, it's not super different than doing the same quests multiple times like...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah it's pretty bad, especially since the location is retarded and doesn't have a TP directly next to it. Apparently they're doubling quest xp in the expansion, so it'll be faster to level for new players I guess. Not sure if they have any plans for other people.
