    Patch day each month. Should be 19th this month I believe. Belt slot is suspected.

    They fucked the rogue BS arc apparently recently. It's really bad. That said, an epic geared rogue FUCKS on burn fights.

    Furiosa (2024)

    Movie was good. Theater in IMAX had 4 people total at 7pm on a Monday. Child Furiosa kind of dragged on too much and is probably close to 1/2 the movie. I'd much rather have dialed that shit back and shown the 40 day war instead of cramming it into a 60 second montage. CGI was rough at some...

    The lag is probably due to the high pop and also due to tower instances spawning. Scripted shit like LDONs bog the fuck out of the server. Another reason maybe they need to rethink the Anniversary shit a bit more.

    It's wild how bad Tormax is. I thought it'd surely be a medium to low pop server, because of 99ers and people afraid of Mischief style loot, but I was way off. At this point can they even justify keeping the server up with that little interest? You'd have to do some server vote shit or...

    Sorry, my mistake. Were you in TEQB on Aradune? That's kind of M&M2 in my head and that's probably why I thought that.

    Yeah they weren't splitting AoW for keys for ST. They just didn't have the tanking capabilities. Dick can tell you, he was in M&M. :)

    I can't remember, but I think that 9/10 AoW was OW they zerged down on a server start or something and their first 72 man was a monthish later. Doesn't matter. You ain't clearing all raid content for 14 days after "beating the boss" you aren't #1 at anything but strokin' it.

    We didn't clear ST until a week in, partially because we only raid on set raid nights (we did OW tunare on opening because the other guilds were busy jerking off in NTOV griefing each other over an un-spawnable Vulak). EM's not listed there, but we know you guys were doing as well as anyone so I...

    I was, and am still, in Mess. I don't recall the specifics, I know boxer crews get faster and faster at waking the Sleeper each server and maybe I'm mixing up Agnarr and Mangler, but I thought my guild got one round of pre woken loot up before sleeper was awoken. Could definitely be wrong. A...

    It's definitely this. Going almost a full month without killing AoW is fucking disgusting in Velious. Vulak essentially means you clear NTOV, so yes that's important. AoW means you did a real tank check fight. Sleeper's means you keyed a raid gear. Tunare I think is kind of whatever, but...

    Which is why my guild was splitting Zlandi and Klandi early to get keys so we could get pre-woken loot before it stopped dropping. I think we got 1-2 ST clears before it was awoken and we were in there about 7 days after launch maybe? I don't even remember the specifics, but I THINK M&M went...

    The fact you made this statement means you're either a p99er or don't understand raid loot.

    Well in the time that they killed Vulaek we did OW Tunare, DZ Tunare, all of Kael, and some Klandi/Zlandi splits. Also Vulaek being the final target is questionable. He's the longest fight but by no means the hardest boss. One could argue clearing ST is the real Velious "win". Because the...

    I'd agree until Mangler. The M&M crew rushed Vulaek and killed him night one or two. Declared victory over the server, jerked off nonstop. The didn't kill AoW until almost a full month later. That's not winning.

    They probably need to add rec levels to the Tower Gear and scale them better and that would fix the problems. The issue is they did the CORRECT thing for this type of gear where the level is a low requirement whereas the gear is a high stat value. Most games add in stuff like this and you get...

    If an item is flagged Quest it SHOULD drop off it's quest dropper every time. This is USUALLY the case, but a lot of times like SMR it doesn't.

    Going to see it tomorrow. The usual dumbest people say it's terrible without having actually seen it, so it's probably okay+. Classic FoH stuff. I expect it to be decent, but not as good as Fury Road, mostly because from trailers it seemed more CGI heavy whereas Fury Road seemed to be almost...

    Smart loot wouldn't do shit for T17's because with Graveyard atm there's 0 reason to pick up rares outside of maybe jewelry. All the shit to loot is currency/cards/uniques/SCARABS. They'd need to figure out a better inventory system for those like currency pockets or some shit.

    They're still dropping Zordak loot and General D'Veers loot. We did two picks and one of them shat out 2 zordak hearts and 30000 Fennin Ro armor pieces. 3/4 dropped some random loot, just the first King we killed dropped quest items only. vs I guess it was Queen shitting out the Fennin...

    Random loot has been fun, but we've gotten some 0 drop minor raid bosses now and that's uh, super concerning. They do drop additional quest items from their tiers for things like epic, but Chardok King literally didn't drop anything but quest items last night.

    Logging at level 23. Clicked Teek server within 5 seconds of it being available. Few got in instantly, I had to wait ~15 minutes, another groupmate had to wait 45 minutes. Server itself was pretty stable which is nice. A fuckton of 6boxers, some of them obviously MQing already in NRO...

    There's literally 0 situation where soloing beats out a decent+ group. Literally 0. The time to kill even with a charmed pet is not even close to a full group, especially with a 6 man getting a bonus to exp for the 6th, not a penalty. The soloing shit is some no-friender/p99/work from homer...

    It can make the upgrading feel worse as you will have some slots you'll go 1/2 a year without upgrading, or more, but for some people that may be a blessing. That FT won't even matter when GOD hits and you get OOC regen. Overall it probably ends up being something like +20% hp for Kunark and...

    There are certainly server discords, but they're usually smaller and between guild leaders not a FFA as they'd get shit up bad pretty quick. Edit: Unofficial of course.

    Finished this. Seemed fine. Almost seemed like it teetered on being a literal sequel to the kids show and an adult version. I'd say it was more a teen version of the show really, which is weird because their audience is now in their 30's and 40's. Dialogue was kind of shit for a lot of the...

    I think "watchable" best describes this show. Honestly if it wasn't Colin Farrell this could be on CBS and no one would bat an eye. Season 2 could have more of a traditional antagonist thing going on and that could be cool, but there's so many little things in this show that feel low quality...

    I literally don't remember anyone playing Selos beyond the 2 guilds racing on Selos. I'm not saying it's PVP server level of rose colored glasses, but I don't think the meat of the TLP casuals gave a single fuck about Selos. It was too extreme for probably 75% of the TLP community. Saying it...

    It takes some guilds 3 weeks to get into the highest content, so without lockout changes like Selos had, a month is too fast for a lot of the casual gamers. Two months is plenty and that's how the majority of expansions are. Currently Teek is months weeks of Classic/Kunark + Velious which is...
