    So, we're three weeks into the league. Has anyone seen bosses in their mine often enough to think that they can finish boss challenges before the end of the league? This is without using the "exploit", so 5 minimum each. I haven't seen any bosses yet.

    I think that's selection bias. If rares were generally worth it, most people would not be recommending against picking them up. I have not been as lucky as you with the div cards in delves. Nor do I get them in most delves. I think this might be selection bias again. You're remembering the...

    I haven't been exploring the side areas during a delve because I hate the flare mechanic and it really sucks with a ES character dependent on leech for sustain. Maybe I need to give it another try. Fossils and chests not gated by a more sane depth level is really stupid.

    Tad bit of hyperbole there. Most rares aren't worth picking up outside of leveling, chaos recipe, T1(even this is debatable), ilvl 86, and shaper/elder. Fossils don't change this, you're still picking the same rares up. Light Riches don't drop nearly the same quality of cards as putrid...

    There's an opportunity cost to rubbing one out even if you are able to perform later. It former diminishes the intensity of the latter, and I'd much rather have a great fuck her ass and choke her out orgasm than a good say hi to my left hand orgasm.

    "Problem". I understand the risks with what is essentially inflation in an ARPG centered around grinding gear and currency, but I haven't really felt it negatively impact my play yet. On the plus side, I can play for an hour or 2 on weekdays, fill up a quad dump tab after 2 days and have a...

    Area damage is gravy. In terms of whether it actually helps sell the item, I would say it's of the same magnitude that the item base itself might be a negative.

    I would say there's still a need for some form of QA. What developer would own the testing system as a whole? Or do you think there wouldn't be a unified testing system? Who owns the system to collect and display test results? Who owns the actual machines the tests are running on and triages...

    I know I've raised this question before, but I'm honestly not remembering getting an answer last time. Why is QA typically tasked with designing tests for code they didn't write? Outside of blackboxing, this seems like a really stupid setup but is quite common in software. When I did QA in...

    What do you figure is the depth limit of your character in MF gear? It might be that pack and quant from deeper delves makes up for mf gear. Yes, that doesn't solve who you map with.

    Thanks for the response. I've got cracks and some of the top coat is roughed up, but nothing down the foundation. This is my first time, so I'm going to pay someone. If it looks simple enough, I'll give it a try next time.

    It's boring from a loot perspective. MF loot itself is boring and caps out quickly, so your character's progression caps out quickly. If you can get around that by MFing and progressing on the same character, you gotta swap gear frequently and you character is still at least somewhat of a...

    I doubt they'll do that with sulfite. Use movement flask with LW, solves speed issues. More specifically, even without the flask it can't be slower than unearth/bodyswap unless you're teleporting a distance in which you can get off 3+ attacks while the duration resolves. The flask should...

    @Kythik and I were discussing Indigon builds last night, so I thought I'd post mine since I've changed a bit since last patch. It's your typical Indigon-CI-Hierophant-PP build, but I've made perhaps a few unique changes/mistakes: Arc/LW for clear, Volatile Dead/Unearth for single target...

    Why is QA better suited for developing end to end testing? I feel like not working in the codebase that's being tested is a severe handicap. Unless it's black box.

    Well, just assume I'm an idiot when it comes to JavaScript because I pretty much know nothing despite my strong opinions against it. For instance, Ive heard of a Dom but don't know what it is. I question if QA should be designing the tests instead implementing the tools for them.

    I did stumble upon Cypress, I'm looking into that some more Monday. I don't think unit tests are enough here because they don't how the code functions inside our non-javascript code nor how the browser will react.

    Hmmm, is there a way to deal with them besides shattering? I like shattering but it is limiting if that's a requirement for deep delves. I've heard some people suggest CWDT and an offering but I don't know how that would work.
