Doesn't pretty much every ARPG have this mechanic? I mean, yes it's annoying, but it's pretty easy to work around. Just get the recovery stat and stack hp. Mechanics like this make the game a bit painful with your first character, but every character after that it's completely unnoticable...

So I have a 4L pair of white zealot boots (str/int helm, 4 reds), a 5L white Labrys (str/dex 2h axe, 4 reds 1 blue) and a 4L finned helmed (str/dex 2red, 2 green). What can I get for these? I figure I should trade em early rather than later, probably get a better price for em

Absolutely anything in this game can be done. It is amazing how well the passive tree is set up. It's daunting at first but they have a lot of great skills that can make so many builds viable, not only that but the itemization is top notch. They did a lot of the game the right way, remember...

Yea I was using fork but even when I take it out I still run into mana issues. I'll give clarity a shot and I actually just got a mana leech gem so it's worth trying at the least I suppose. Thanks for the tips.

Did you mean "Searching for Sugar Man"? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2125608/

So I've got an EK shadow up to 45 in act 3 cruel. Used the guide linked a few pages back and while I'm pretty beefy I have had no luck finding good +ES gear. As a result my ES is sitting at a whipping 103 which means respeccing to Eldritch Battery is worthless (I have ~1200 hitpoints currently)...

There is a [VIDEO] tag now

Summoner works in act 3 its just.... really... painfully slow. I'm working my way through it right now on my Witch summoner and I have a feeling that once I get through it and into Cruel difficulty Act1 and 2 are going to be pretty easy again until I hit that wall back in Act 3. I wish...

I thought the same thing at first but I have to say... after playing around with it for a little bit it is quite refreshing to be playing a challenging game with complex options where you can actually do unique shit. Sure I might fuck up a build but the levelling is fast enough that I can just...

Just picked up a copy at the local Game Stop. They got about 8 copies in today it seems so if you're still looking might want to check around. Now I just need to borrow a friend's PS3....

Finally watched Dredd last night based on all the praise here. You guys were right.

I understand what you guys are trying to say. But the fact of the matter is AoW was not a hard fight. It was the epitome of gear check. Warriors and Clerics were the only classes that had a job in that fight, everyone else just "did damage". And the clerics had the most trivial of jobs, click...

See I wouldn't call any of that difficult. Hoping an invis spell doesn't fade doesn't make the game hard. It makes it exciting, but it doesn't make it hard. You're casting a spell and then running. You're talking about random events you have no control over so there is no skill involved. Hoping...

I started playing EQ around December of 2000. I remember making my first character (an Iksar Shaman) and when I got into the gameworld I couldn't see shit. I actually thought I had crashed and relogged a few times before I realized I was in game but it was really goddamn dark. So I immediately...

So you want to compare the amount of times someone died in their very first levels in a brand new genre of game that they had probably never experienced before to the amount of deaths in every game they played as an MMO veteran after that. I'm sure that data would be useful for something...

I know this is derailing the thread a bit but I just can't help it. Please show me this large list of "hard gameplay" that existed in EQ. Not being able to put 5 pure dps classes in a group and be successful fits your criteria for "hard" apparently so I guess you would consider pretty much...

There were things about EQ that were difficult, but not many. Saying it was "hard as shit" makes me think you played a different game than I did. EQ was actually pretty easy. Unlimited CC, debilitating slows, super buffs, only needing to press about 3 buttons. Yea that shit was hard dog.

If I have a wand with 16% increased damage with spells does that effect the damage of my minions?

This is going incredibly smooth. No lag, a 5 minute downtime at one point which was fixed promptly, fast loading times. I'm guessing they erred on the side of caution and made it seem like they thought they weren't going to be able to handle all this extra unanticipated load, when in fact they...

Do support gems stack? For instance, can I link 2 minion life gems to a summon zombie gem?

Is there a list form layout of all the "big" passives (i.e. Chaos Innoculation) somewhere? Trying to navigate the tree in a browser as a noob to see what's available is daunting.

I don't see any guides on page 7, how many posts per page do you have this site set to? EDIT: Found it, it's on page 14 if you use the default settings.

Question for the more veteran people. I've been playing minimally for the last week or so, started a witch as my first character and after perusing the passive tree decided there were enough summon passives that I would try summoner witch. I'm level 16 and have notice that while the zombies and...

I've dated girls uglier than you for breakfast

Yea they looked really strong. Their early game seems unstoppable, and even when they lose with their early aggression they were still able to come back against one of the best teams in the world in Frost.

Anyone else have a lot of trouble with the streams on both ESLTV and Twitch? So laggy for me

I don't see why we can't have a marriage of old mechanics and new. Instancing being a prime example. It seems a lot of the EQ reskinned crowd abhors instancing, whereas I think it was a great advancement for the genre and can be vastly improved upon. I'm going to use Chardok as an example here...

Darker than Black starts and stays strong. I didn't have to fight my way through the openers for that series like I did with so many other (albeit good) series TTGL is NOT a mature anime, it is not at all what he is looking for. Granted... it's awesome and he should watch it regardless but it...

I'll second (and third) the recommendations for Claymore, Hellsing, Basilisk, Samurai Champloo and Full Metal Alchemist Some others I liked that don't get mentioned too often (other than DTB) Darker Than Black Black Lagoon (Very similar to Cowboy Bebop) Witch Hunter Robin The GetBackers...

People most certainly did explore Azeroth and Kalimdor like that and I was one of them. I knew about whipper root tubers, timbermaw hold faction, where the best spots to farm Traveller's bags and where every single high level named was before most people had hit 60. I roamed all over both...

None of those things are going to stop a bot because all of those skills get written to a combat log. All the bot has to do is read the combat log to see when the mob casts teleport and turn the fuck around. The way Wildstar is doing it could actually be a solution though we are all laughing...

He did mention one interesting thing. Towards the end he talked about combat that rewards players based on skill. So if you can round up and kill multiple mobs at a time or string from camp to camp without resting there are perks to that. That could be interesting depending on what the rewards are.

What are you talking about man, this shit is totally new. It's got all different kinds of shapes... squares, triangles, parallelograms!!! Every other MMO only has circles!!!

Don't know if it was mentioned, but if you love KBS (as I do) you should also try to get your hands on Goose Island's Bourbon County Stout when it releases (which was just recently, and may be hard to find now) Here are some of my favorite beers in no particular order: Imperial Stouts...

See... I though God Bless America was absolutely fucking terrible. At one point in the movie he stops her from ranting to say "we can only kill people who deserve to die" and then in the very next dialogue says people who drink Monster Energy drinks should die... The movie made me want to kill...

I love most of QT's films but Szlia has a point. The guy doesn't write movies, he just pays homage to movies he loves in film form. They are wildly entertaining and he has a knack for comedic over embellishment but you will never find his movies to be thought provoking or beautiful. They are...

Full motion games are cool the first handful of times you play them but they lose their appeal fast. I returned Tiger Woods golf for the Wii after a week because I just wanted to sit on my goddamn couch and use a controller and it didn't even have that capability (who knows why). Making a weird...

Vanilla WoW most certainly had exploration and danger. There were a ton of un-soloable quests and elite mobs out in the world, hell even a lot of the non elite quests were difficult if you weren't a very good player. All the high level zones starting from around 48 had so few quests you were...

I think Quinn is in on the bombings and is a terrorist, I also think his head honcho (the guy eating the chicken and waffles, can't remember his name now) is the one pulling the strings. I think he let Brody live, not because he had a bout of conscience, but because he would be the perfect...

Weren't people saying the graphics looked dated and shitty? They look pretty impressive to me, especially the water. Ship raids on giant sea monsters? Giant forces of players hang gliding into a city to seige it from a cliff top? I'm in. I'm just picturing sitting in my corn field...
