    Do all the Hunts / Contracts, they are fairly quick and will give good gear. I find the Hunts give more epics off mobs than the Contracts.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I mentioned earlier in the thread about the Hunts and Contracts that open up when you get to Trench Town. There are 10 of each, the Hunts reward epic armor and the Contracts reward epic guns. When you finish all 10 of either, you can reset and do them again. Really good XP / Wold xp as well. I'm...

    Don't upgrade the accessories, you'll get far better by doing the various Main Quests for each region. Get the Armor / Weapons to PEN, then talk to the black spirit or Fughar to get a quest to exchange them for Narcillan gear.

    I would say they (PCF) have no idea how to fix the issues they are having with servers. Some people thought it was due to MS PlayFab shitting the bed, but nope. Now PCF seems to be saying its an issue with Square Enix. Pretty fun game at least. The connectivity should clear up next week when...

    Winter season was so good overall that I am already disappointed with the Spring season.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Along with the reddit post showing a connection with MS PlayFab, I am guessing the issue is on both ends. PCF made a miscalculation in how to configure their servers to interact with the Cloud, while the Cloud had a hiccup.

    Nope. You can take a green up to Epic if you want, or a blue to Epic, but Epics will always stay at Epic (with max stats though).

    Are you upgrading your gear? Go for Firepower, and raise its attribute on whichever gear has it. Raise the lvl of your weapons too.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    The games engine is being funky like MHW in that Windows shows it using 0% GPU. Also, the DC's still happening a lot. If you're not in a rush to the "endgame" or to finish the campaign, once you get to Trench Town, you open up the bounties for Critters or Humanoids. You'll see new quests at...

    Unpacking, for 30m, thanks Steam. Wonder if Epic has the same download / unpack system, or is "unpacking" just "unlocking"?

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Dunno why you think there are only 7 expeditions when videos in this thread explaining the "endgame" say there are 13 + Eye of the Storm (at launch). Just because Solid doesn't have them all opened up doesn't mean there are only 7. Has anyone pre loaded on Steam? If so, what does is the release...

    I tried the demo out on my ps4 pro... and it was shit. I would never play a game that felt like that, I'd be surprised if it could run at a stable 30fps.

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    You could always watch the vods of his demo sessions, he mentions / alludes to the time skip info (via discord) fairly often. I consider that to be a minor cheat, and only mentioned it due to being curious how PCF will handle his account in MP (though all the ppl he would MP with also did the...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    He 100% "cheats".. lol. He is where I got the info on how the time skip works, and that is all he did during the demo in regards to cheating. Last I looked at his stream he had not unlocked all the expeditions yet, he had like 5-6 including EoS available. I think there are a total of 14 that...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    I wonder if he got hit with the "cheater" tag, since he abused the fuck out of the time skip. People in his chat said he was using his demo account, but who knows. As far as "endgame", its the same as any other "looter" type game at its release. Limited, repetitive grind. As far as I can tell...

    I bought the Klipsch Pro Media 2.1 system waaaay back in the early 2000's. The pre amp and main amp finally died about 2yrs ago. Great, long lasting system. So when doing anything on the computer I've been using headphones. Ordered a new set of the Pro Media which arrived today. Hearing music /...

    I'm sure millions will play MHR when its released on other platforms. You'll have Ps5/Xbx and PC all at once. Edit: What I'm curious about is how long Capcom will support Rise knowing that there will be a MHW2. I can't see a MHW2 coming out too soon after Rise is on the other platforms. So...

    Wussed out and bought a pair of Sennheiser HD 599's, lol. There was no way I could listen to the sets I was thinking of getting: HD6XX, DT 990's or the ATH-M50x. So I went with the set that reviewed closer to my 598's.

    All you need for fun PvP is knowledge/ experience. Gear is only needed for Sieges, which are a joke atm, or the higher end Node Wars. The T1 Node Wars are where are the fun is, and that is gear capped at like 220AP-240AP. If you're not planning to play long term, then none of your choices...

    Tough choice. The weapon exchange coupon set is very valuable for future use, but having a T8 is also really nice. I'd take the coupons since they have the potential to save you billions at a later date.

    The Narchillan set is a bit "worse" than PEN Tuvala if you just look at sheet stats, but if you add in all the Monster Damage / Monster Damage Reduction, along with the set bonus the Narc set gets, then you can say Narc is a bit better or equal. Now if you're happy with your PEN Tuvala, and can...

    For those using a Secret Lab, which I've been thinking of getting as well, how has it held up? I'm a fairly big guy, 6'4" 242lbs. All the chairs I've used over many years have had the backrest warp in that it gives too much when I am at rest leaning back into it. Its like I get further and...

    Need some new headphones. Currently using Sennheiser HD598S, which always sounded great to me. Budget is around $200-$220-ish. Using an old Yamaha receiver to power them. Is there anything in my price range that would be considered an "upgrade" to the HD598S?

    Catching up with this weeks shows: Slime: Boom! Headshot! The last half of Re: Zero has been fantastic. Tensei is still my favorite, such a great overall show. World Trigger is still more of what is good about that show. Hopefully there is a S3 that shows the trip through the "Neighborhood"...

    Pretty shocked that it is so difficult to find a system to buy. Now that the 3060Ti is out, I figure I might as well wait til its more readily available. All the system sellers I've went too have them on "pre order" status that extends build / ship time by 6 weeks or so. What is causing this? Is...

    The Naru / Narchillan stuff will be permanent, not sure if we will get new Seasons though, and if we do I think they will be different than the previous one where they won't be designed to help ppl catch up.

    Quite a bit will be changing in regards to Seasons / Olvia server on the 24th. No concrete info on the next Season, but I think its going to be a bit different than previous ones in that Seasons will no longer be for new players to catch up.... that is all being pushed heavily to the "new" Olvia...

    Outriders (Squeenix looter shooter)

    Getting t2 finish times vs. t1 isn't going to inhibit you from doing all the content in the game and getting the "best" gear either, so I wouldn't worry about the "speedrun" nature of the endgame as much as you seem to be doing. Though it could be shitty, guess we'll find out.

    If you don't already have a TRI Ogre Ring on your account, you might as well try for a PEN Tuvala. If you plan on doing Spring Season, there is a good chance that the end of season reward will be a PEN Capotia, which is equal to a TET Ogre Ring. Edit: Selling the left over Tuvala materials...

    Just understand that the main end game for BDO is making money as efficiently as possible.

    There will be the usual Level up event for Sage, and maybe a Level up event for a Season character (they did this with Hash), and those can have good stuff like more inventory, weight, etc. Logging in tomorrow will let you claim a special Box for the Sage. The rewards for the current Season...
