    I don't think the nerf kills warriors, just kills the OTK ones. But what Kripp is currently playing works fine even without these. I mean the charge nerf is the one that actually hurt, but not that bad. It's a control warrior deck with a shitton of legendaries to kill people and like azure...

    In general, at the very least doomsayer is a 7heal for 2mana, which is better than holy light. It doesn't turn out that way against silences or direct removal, but still expands one of these, and silence makes it so you can still convert it into something useful later once you have an argus and...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    B&S should have come out like 2years ago. They had plenty of time to release it before Wildstar was making some noise and get some money then, but no, it takes them multiple years to port the fucking korean games and then they probably put it on hold because it wasn't a good time anymore. Stupid...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Making the respawn timers more random would kinda help but you'd still run in the issue that if a mob respawns during euro primetime then the US players probably don't get the kill, and if there's a bad streak on some mob that happen to drop some specific really good loot it kinda sucks you...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Thing is holidays events don't have to be against the immersion and logic of the world. It makes perfect sense to have a festival for the coming of spring and one for the coming of winter, one during summer and one during fall and then whatever you want to put inbetween. As long as it doesn't...

    Trump was playing a warrior too last night, he switched from druid near the end of his streaming, so I guess warrior is the new meta now and everyone will play that. At least it looks fairly interesting and isn't quite as cheesy as some of the other stuff, I really like the addition of the...

    VG still had a pure CC class, Psionicist it could mez, stun, memwipe and so on, could hold 2 mobs permanently CCed and a 3rd temporarily iirc, and you had a bunch of other cool tools like charm and some skill that in typical vanguard fashion was never finished/completely done but it would let...

    Season 1 ended couple of days ago yeah. Ranks are reset, not fully spread out yet so higher ranks are more difficult.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Most people buy the stash tabs because it's convenient and really useful in a game where you tend to loot a ton of shit, but you don't technically need them as you can create 24characters per account and create accounts in a matter of minute(and dual log them to transfer stuff). It's just that...

    League sells content too, and I'd be surprised if their cosmetics sales were much higher than their content sales, content being champions in this case. Better example would be PoE, which is a small studio game and is sustained entirely on cosmetics(technically also storage pages but since it's...

    Omniknight tends to be played as a support, he is average but I wouldn't say very easy to pick up at first. During the initial phase of the game called laning, which generally lasts 10-15mins but can be shorter or longer depending on the flow of the game, your primary goal is farming up. If...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Well I didn't mean that part but Skyrim did also have a lot of quests, you just didn't have level restrictions and zones and shit like that so it's not the same, what I mean is it tries hard to be like Skyrim, they even just reused the assets for the compass, the map icons, some of the music...

    Hearthstone

    The worst I think is facing another control deck, cause whoever has the best legendaries tend to win and since I only have rag and newly crafted Sylvanas, whenever I get the guy with Cairne+Cenarius+Tinkmaster+Black Knight, I'm most likely losing(part of it is 2 of these are removal when the...

    I think you replace them with Sunwalkers and be fine. I only have one so I'm only playing one, seems to work alright. But yeah sometimes it's completely anti value if you drop it as safety net on 5 cause you're already behind and he gets removed instantly(worst by black knight but even...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Played this a bit, not as awful as I expected, but awful enough that I don't see myself buying the box. Mostly feels like a really unpolished skyrim with a lot of random people running around doing the exact same shit as you are. Which basically completely breaks any sort of immersion the game...

    I remember when I wanted to play EQ2 for the first time, I looked up a pvp video of Nagafen to figure out if I should roll pvp or not. It looked like a humongous pile of shit though, so I never bothered. They added BG when I was playing at some point, I think it was some expansion, but didn't...

    All your examples are shit. But you're right that dota has longer duration CC, there's no question about that, it punishes bad positionning. It's also mostly countered by BKB as an item. Or by force staff. Or by support abilities. Or by proper timing of certain abilities. Basically, by playing...

    Hearthstone

    Well yeah if you have other shit up but by that account a warrior can brawl your beast+board with only alextraza up and get a 3/3+keep alex at full health+wipe your board. I mean equality consecration will fuck your board regardless. I thought you meant comboing it for only a beast kill(or...

    Hearthstone

    I think it's alright, mage is probably the worst trade for it imo since they can use one card+hero power and kill it on the same turn you play it and since they come out with a 3/3 out of it, it's not a waste of a turn for them really, and those mages that run poly can do that instead but I...

    DOTA 2

    Levels only give you guaranteed items when you hit a new one, and there's a new quest system with the crafting shit that also gives you specific items after certain levels. But it's mostly a cosmetics level, doesn't really do shit otherwise than give cosmetics drops. It has a rating similar to...

    Well unless you run all 2-3drops or all big mobs, Argent Commanders are gonna kill something when they're played anyway. At least the Azure Drake drew a card, which beats a lot of other stuff. There's also the lack of good 5s in a lot of classes that do run drakes. Like Druids don't need to run...

    Awesome Games Done Quick 2014: Speedrunning For Charity - January 5th-11th

    Watching the vod since I missed the live cast, F Zero GX was such a bullshitty game but god it was fun. Bit sad that they're doing half screen split the entire time though, games is much more impressive in full screen when you see just how fast it is.

    Path of Exile

    The way I was doing it before they added all those convoluted systems was to simply get the name of the seller and PM him ingame. If he wasn't online I'd just bookmark it for later but mostly I'd just try someone else with a similar item. People don't necessarily check their PMs and accepting...

    There's Blade Dance too, but they might have moved that to later I think I read, still had it on my lvl 10esper though, adds like 2points and does good damage in an aoe, so you alternate the spinning blades and that and rarely telekinetic strike while lvling other than tougher mobs. Beats...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    The world was extremely fragmented and levels were a huge issue early on(and later), you simply couldn't land a spell on anyone that was 6+levels higher cause it used the same hit formula as mobs. There were only a few areas where you would encounter anyone while leveling(STV for example)...

    Tarren mills wars were boring as fuck, camping blackrock was ok during primetime to catch the raiders, that was about it really. It had honor system at launch though iirc? Or maybe that was added right after but before BGs, since I remember people grinding to rank14 before BGs were released...

    Yes and no. You could play around the hunter OTK as much as you can this one, probably even more, by simply spamming the board a lot and killing him fast or by playing big taunters with a bunch of shit so he couldn't deadly shot them. Against warrior OTK it's a lot harder, first because there's...

    Warsong Commander is strong because it's Warsong Commander. The combination that leads to OTK is annoying but it's not really because of the other cards and entirely because of warsong commander. It gives charge to everything else as long as it's in play, it's actually one of the few cards that...

    They've actually shown a bunch of the esper skills in some dev video thing, I looked at it cause it showed healing in the first dungeon. It showed the other builder but it's like a melee range builder so while you can run around, it's not that great. That said you don't really need to use the...

    In terms of hotkeys and shit, I think I'd like at most 2 full bars of skills for a given class(standard 12 slots bars, so 24abilities per class). Could have more if they're like cosmetics and super situational stuff like self illusions and what not. Then about 1 bar of...

    What would be really cool about the streaming shit is if you could play Vita games on PS4. So, you know, you don't have to buy one. I guess it's not gonna happen since it means they wouldn't be selling as many Vitas and shit but that'd be nice and I would definitely consider it if that was the...

    Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition

    It's a lot harder to make a good old school RPG, regardless of the isometric and sprite based graphics. The key is the story, the character developement and the dialogues, which probably would take a fuckton more time than just making another procedurally generated rogue-like game or platformers...

    Well depends on your sources? If you know people in them and they told you maybe they're not but otherwise they wouldn't publicly say they're in a beta that is even more hidden than the normal closed beta and that they're testing endgame content there. And could be different guilds, they don't...

    Can assume standard high end wow guilds, I don't know who's big nowadays but used to be guilds like Vodka, Death n Taxes, Millenium and whoever else, basically you look at the wow ranking and they probably contacted those guilds to test raiding.
