    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Oh that's interesting, I assumed they were the same as Barb and Monk and were getting the 30% too, but just checked and yeah, they're not getting it, so I guess it makes a huge difference and explains why the passives and shit look better. So I guess geared if you spec for it yeah barbs will...

    So I managed to lose 3games in a row at 7-0 with one of the best mage deck I've ever drafted, it had 2 mana wyrms, 1frostbolt, 1cone of cold, 2fireballs, 1pyro, 1flamestrike, 1sheep, 1 ALEXTRAZA then a bunch of neutral good cards like 2 shattered, 2 dark iron, 1 yeti, 1armorsmith guy(the 4/6)...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I have no idea, however barbs survivability is nerfed a ton in the expansion, since they removed lifesteal from everything, so unlike live barb where you use the rend lifesteal rune and can survive mp10 with shit gear, can't really quite do that. I think so far the big difference is you can...

    DOTA 2

    LC probably a while until she's in -cm, for whatever reason they don't seem to like adding stuff to -cm for a while, could say it's because of potential bugs but that doesn't prevent them from adding stuff even when it still has bugs left anyway. LC is definitely one of the most snowbally hero...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    On the spammy combat, it is spammy, CC breaking mechanics aside. Every class(shown on streams) starts with an ability that has no cooldown and no ressource cost but does lower damage than everything else you get, and in some cases also doubles as a ressource builder for the class. This ability...

    They said it's a bug and they'll fix it next patch or something, crafted amulets are 61 atm yeah. And yeah barbs not sure if they're very viable on PTR, they looked ok in RoS with the new avalanche skill but they're very different now, play more like old school barbs(well, less frenzy and more...

    I personally wouldn't say mages burn decks require no skill, they require a decent bit to know when you have to freeze and when you can take damage and shit(unless you have an obscene hand but that's similar for most decks really). What it is however is extremely unfun to play against. In MTG I...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Been playing a Crusader on a friend's account since he got in the beta, gotta say the class is pretty fucking fun, it seems fairly awful at sustained damage unlike the other 2 melees, but you can burst shit down by popping a bunch of cooldowns at once, it's pretty cool to play. Also very tanky...

    Oh yeah I know that but like I have barely 400dusts atm, I might be able to disenchant everything I have golden as well as noz to maybe, MAYBE, craft sylvanas. I'd need to check how much I can get, but most of my golden cards are like commons and rares so they disenchant for shit anyway, and I'd...

    DOTA 2

    Can mouse wheel as mentionned, but it'll still be closed, it's something the genre always does, by forcing you to be fairly close it reinforces map awareness, good camera control and stuff. Especially in dota where abilities often have longer range than half your screen, so if you play with your...

    Well shit happens I guess, still got 80ish gold from it so not a big loss, and the new max rewards have been bumping my gold gains quite a lot, think I'm at 500ish or so now. Like I got 9wins earlier on a mage and got 280golds out of it, which is really nice. Just the fact that 7 is always 150+...

    Hearthstone

    I don't think prep is worth it, cause it's pretty much shit unless you also have sprint, otherwise it's a dead card so if you sprint and draw it, it's pretty fucking useless. One sprint is great though, while it's dead for a while turn 7 isn't that far off and that's when you'd usuall start...

    Na card is random, I used Mind Vision earlier and got the card, then played it and got the Murlocs summon card which looked like a great pick with my Stormwind Champion, until the guy cleared the board and next turn killed me with fireball+rogues do it from behind with spellpower. So he got the...

    Tales of Zestiria (PS3)

    Unrelated but Sean you must know, how's Symphonia New World or whatever? Iirc I played Symphonia, but then again I might not have and only watched the anime not sure, will that be worth buying? Also hope the dual track shit becomes standard. No mention of it for Xillia 2 though so guess not.

    Tales of Zestiria (PS3)

    Oh that's nice then, I just assumed since it's still far from release in japan and they take forever to port those, they'd just skip this one and work on porting the PS4 one earlier for new sales. It's nice they've been porting the last few, hopefully it means they're selling decently, games are...

    There's a few variants of the OTK warrior, generally they do have the molten giants though, it's an easy combo with pandas once you're low hp, warsong into 0mana giant, attack, panda it back to your hand, drop it, attack again. Generally rely on Frothing berzerker and shit that does damage...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    If you mean Inferno, then it's like mp4-5 or so I think, but the itemization is a lot better nowadays so relative power is much higher. If you actually mean hell, it's less than mp0, hell wasn't hard even at launch.

    Tales of Zestiria (PS3)

    It being on PS3 probably means it's never getting ported right? I mean it'll release in a while on PS3 in japan, then Tales take like 8-12months to be ported, they probably won't bother when by that time the PS4 Tales will be almost out and they can work on porting that instead. So I guess in a...

    Damn lost my last game for 12victories on my rogue to a really nice combo a paladin pulled, I didn't expect that. He played a worgen and he had a sword of justice so 4/4 with enrage windfury etc, so was gonna kill it that turn and he played a secret. I expected the secret to be "get down" or...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yeah tempest rush is no good anymore, but it's great for leveling with a weapon with -lvl req. Leveled my monk super fast with a tempest rush build and a -14lvl 1k DPS 2H hammer with 250dex, just tempest rushing around. Even at MP0 it doesn't kill shit fast enough on mp0 though, I mean if your...

    Oh the crystals are full? Assumed they were empty like Wild Growth, guess it's better then, still too late unless you innervate or coin it though. And I thought it was 2cards too thus inefficient for 5mana, but if it's 3 then it's fine. Would run a single one, kinda like how I love having a...

    Hearthstone

    Sword of justice is possibly the best paladin card you can get. Unless it gets oozed the value is ridiculous, just don't swing it unless you can get a good card. Avenging Wrath is alright but it's nowhere near imo, the sword gives you huge momentum since there's pretty much no way to keep up...

    Hearthstone

    I've done really well in an arena with a similar build, minus the healing. Ancient of Lore especially I found to be extremely good, 7 for 5/5 is pretty meh sure but drawing 2 cards or healing 5 is a fucking great battlecry, if you're dying 5hp is quite a decent amount and if it's late and you're...

    Hearthstone

    Well I haven't tested it enough, I'm not sure yet it's just the general idea of playing typical slow control druid. Cards would be Bite, Claw, Wrath, Starfall and possibly Starfire for nukes, Mark of the Wild and Mark of Nature for buffing/giving taunt to shit, Novice Engineer, Loot Hoarder and...

    DOTA 2

    Right but you only mentionned the damage as an argument for the cost inefficiency, while the cooldown reduction is a pretty big factor. It doesn't just double the damage, it quadruples the damage over time, or in generaly gives you 2 uses per fight vs one. It's an interesting item anyway, it's...

    Well CoC and Flamestrike are common, you tend to get them often. Blizzard is rare but Pyro is epic, never seen a pyro but in my current mage arena deck I have 2 blizzards(and 0 flamestrikes so it's not all great, 0 sheep, only one fireball/frostblast, so yeah). Wanted to make a ranked druid...

    I had the bug and I could still pass turn, just had to click in a much smaller area. Don't know sometimes it's people going afk, sometimes it's people being assholes, sometimes it's just people thinking about what to play. You might assume because it's turn 2 they shouldn't have that much choice...

    DOTA 2

    That said, the cooldown and mana cost go down dramatically too. Mana cost might not be too much of an issue but the 15secs cd on a 800nuke is a pretty big deal vs 35secs for 400. Think it depends on your hero mostly and how dominant you are.

    Hearthstone

    Well you get a pack every 20wins pretty much, if you play a fast deck it goes relatively fast, but not really that fast, and you're capped at 30wins a day too to generate new cards. Can bet on arena runs instead where you can get much better rewards but if you don't like it, yeah it kinda sucks...

    Hearthstone

    Not really no. It doesn't have a bunch of cone of colds/blizzard/frost nova/ice blocks to stall for giants, which there's only 2 of anyway, nor does it have the direct damage to face rush then nuke and finish at 8. Only one fireball, no pyro, no ice lances(not great but does quite a bit of...

    There's a huge difference to me between dusts, which is only usable for constructed and only until a finite amount, and gold, which is usable for both and is required to do arenas. I like playing arenas, I don't like playing constructed. Also it wasn't as low of an odd, I don't think your...

    Hearthstone

    Well before there was a huge variance and you could get higher gold, if you were lucky. Basically if you'd get all gold packs and some of them were max value at your wins. I've gotten 130ish from a 4wins prepatch, I doubt you can get that anymore. I think the biggest difference though is in the...

    Hearthstone

    Well from what it seems, 7wins always gets you 150g+pack, potentially more, under 7wins, it's rare you'll get 150g anymore because of the reduced pack and you can get extremely unlucky and get a card instead of gold, which isn't even necessarily a good card(the card seems entirely random...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Apparently a wipe is coming on F&F beta, so might mean closed beta is starting(or they're making a bunch of changes and want people to retest). They also changed the ETA for the PTR from "Soon" to "Very Soon". So probably next week.

    Hearthstone

    Yeah no it heals, then add 1current/1max, so it increases def by 2 if the creature is wounded. Not sure why it does that now but that's what I read. Maybe they're working on changing the order of buff removal so you can like holy nova 2/2 that have a blood imps buffing them to 2/3 and kill them...

    Hearthstone

    On the upside if you play warlock atm, blood imps are currently bugged and heal for 1 then add 1 to max health.

    Hearthstone

    Based on initial reports, they just decided to fuck bad players by reducing the rewards at low wins. Might be more consistent now though, but there seems to only be 3rewards, 1 is a pack, then it's gold and dust or a card. 7wins apparently is 150ish g so that'd be the break even point. Need more...
