    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Just Star Citizen things... Did they spend money making a cinematic for a patch to an unreleased game? ...for a DLC? ...for a Space Lesbian animated TV show?

    I tried tier 8 with my 174 ilevel rogue can couldn't get off the first floor of either tower. The assassin in the first tower was melting my face, and, in the other tower, the end boss of floor 1 killed me before I got it below 40%. The difference between doing tier 7 towers, and tier 8 is 40...

    Well, the addon sounds versatile, and after getting over the initial disgust of someone playing WoW on a gamepad, it doesn't sound that bad. Not something I would do, as, after years of use, I am far, far more proficient at using a mouse and keyboard, but whatever floats your boat and all that...

    Good thing your a healer, I guess. As long as you play particular specs, it sounds fine. Mostly. Not standing in void zones makes one better than 50%+ of the player base, alone. How would you quickly set down ground target abilities (like warrior/DH/Rogue leap) or AoE heal, to best cover all...

    That's why Assassination is getting a straight 5% damage aura buff, but there is also a selection bias, dragging the numbers down lower. They didn't get many/any tunning changes in beta, so most/all high end raiders knew it was bottom tier. This led to the top 5% being 257 total parces for Ass...

    That Kroger looked familiar, so I looked it up and it was close to where I used to work. In looking, I found the other part of the story on that guy. He actually put three shots in a man (in his 40s) on the local light rail (DART) back in 2018, before this video. I assume that guy died, since...

    These are great tools for not sucking when playing alts. As a alternative (different UI), I use something similar called Hero Rotation. Made by Aeyths, one of the guys that is/was in the SimCraft team (I think). It also take the place of weakaura cooldown tracker for me, as it shows when DPS...

    They took out the RNG on gear, so they had all that extra laying around and needed to put it somewhere. I did layer 6 of both towers as a Blood DK (162) and a Subtlety Rogue (172). The RNG makes or breaks the run at that level (and gear level), but I am fine with higher difficulties being tuned...

    With Kennedy still with Disney, and until they clean house, I have no confidence in anything they produce. Right now, The Mandalorian is an abominably in an otherwise shitty run of trash (using the Star Wars IP).

    My experience has been that grouping handicaps you in Torgast. On my rogue, I have done one rank 3 Torgast with 4 skilled players (tank/healer/dps/dps), all around 155 ilev; everything outside of the end boss was more difficult and slower than the three rank 3's I did solo. My DK tank feels...

    My guess is that the Anima tokens allow them to circumvent the warmode clusterfuck and lessen the complaints about alliance getting 30% more stuff than a_horde_karen_1943230. Also, someone has a fetish for RNG, so they get to add more RNG to the WQs in how many tokens you get as a reward.

    As long as you can still use the curse website and download the mods manually, I don't see an issue with this. They want all traffic though hubs they control, since they are paying for the bandwidth those other mods use. If they require using the app to get mods from them, then I guess I will...

    Do you have many mods going? I don't recall hitting too many bugs playing the Steel Faith Overhaul II mod (SFO). At the very least, if you haven't yet, get the "Community Bug Fix" mod to try to cut down on the vanilla bugs. Although, I think the siege gate bug is so deep in the code (and the...

    I was thinking of the main characters (that are still alive), but yeah, on the bigger list, I would only change Bobby to around the middle of the pack (and #1 would be a coin flip between Amos and Miller (when Miller was in the show).

    The debuff they added onto beta last week, to stop rep gain in the Maw, until Tuesday reset, didn't make it to live. If you had a stealth group, you could probably get something like ~1000 rep and maw currency, by just hunting the rares, and minimizing trash kills.

    I keep reading ~10 hours to go from 1 to 50 and 6-7 hours to go from 50 to 60. What were you expecting? The really fast WoD leveling was nerfed shortly before (I think it was before) the prepatch was released, when they destroyed bonus objective XP.

    I wrote why it is important in my post, and Foggy reiterated the point in the following post? It removes the incentive to speed run to 60 to be able to do the weekly quests before the reset. Now people can speed run because they like speed running it, and the people who like lore and reading...

    This is one timegate I kinda agree with, due to how the weekly reset works, and is at a different time for NA & EU. For NA, this debuff will last a whole 16 hours. People still take off work to marathon releases, and the last minute delay, last month, fucked over a bunch of people's vacation...

    There have been so many campaigns (very hard+) that it's difficult to remember when I was forced into a siege tactical battle. The sieges I can vaguely recall were a couple of High Elf battles. So, probably the Eltharion (The Warden) and/or Alith Anar (Shadow Rogue) campaigns. Generally, I hate...

    They have class trials, where you can play a max level toon for two hours, try a few and see what you like. I don't think there were any major overhauls like in previous expansions, and for SPriests, it sounds like they just got fixed, finally. I have read that they actually fixed feral as well...

    When I finally sat down to watch Clone Wars, I skipped straight to season 2, and I didn't feel lost in the story (99% of the time). I did that skip because I kept reading about how great Clone Wars was, and it got progressively more mature as the seasons went on. Moreover, I would often read...

    They learned after the first or second squish, that they like doing squishes. It was either a blue post or one of the devs, in an interview (shortly after the xpac dropped), said they were planing on a squish every two to three expansions, going forward from that time.
