    Furion's so good he has about a 40% winrate in the tournament if you don't count Alliance games. Whatever nerf him or not, probably won't matter unless he gets a remake to his toolset or something, he's not picked because he's absurdly strong but simply because he's the only hero that does what...

    Builds are what you make of them. You can certainly use only 1 or 2 skills and beat the game, which is how it was in D2 too. You can instead pick more and still perform the same and enjoy the game more. With that said, the first playthrough doesn't get you to very high level so yeah might be...

    The problem with their push in game2 and what they recognized was an issue is they started 5manning more or less at like 10mins, so at 20mins they were all lvl 6-9. That's not good levels, that's actually awful as fuck, but that's the result of 5man pushing without getting kills(had Alliance...

    Seems my R2 button was indeed busted, changed it to R1(btw love being able to rebind buttons in console games, wish more had the option) and now it works fine, targetting is on the busted button. Sucks though cause I really don't want to buy a new PS3 pad. The combat gets quite a lot better...

    I like the game overall but there's so many little issues that make it annoying, like how in Manual mode you jump with Up instead of X+Up, so using the Up+Circle Arte is annoying as shit as you have to press Up before circle(otherwise it does the normal arte) but if you don't time it well you...

    Well random isn't necessarily the best thing if you don't have the mechanical skills, even though it does let you see more heroes. I'd just play against bots for 30-40games anyway, full bot games or coop games. You're going to get yelled at even in coop games against bots though. You're going to...

    But that's the problem of banning vs alliance, sure Bat is crazy etc, but if they have fp, you either give them wisp, bat or lone druid. You only have 2 bans and they don't have to ban any of these themselves if they get first pick. And to be honest giving Bulldog syllabear is easily as bad as...

    You can talk fine, what you can't do is send tells to people outside the instance or people sending you tells from outside. Guildchat(FC and Linkshell alike) somehow works fine though, and obviously so does party chat.

    They're boring to watch when you've watched a bunch of these games. They are however not like ezmode and require a lot of precision to execute well, or to even get to the point where you can efficiently splitpush. Alliance just played that very well to their strengths, chose the fights they...

    Uninstalling yes, it's an entirely new client for P4. For the codes I'm not too sure, I got a pre order code right away I think it is, but I don't think I got an actual account key yet, from GMG. The website to register preorder isn't actually up yet though so atm it's no big deal.

    You can only buy up to lvl 15 items or whatever though, so that wouldn't get you very far, plus it's expensive. Actually crafting the items also give crafting xp.

    As far as what I found out when you want to turn in a quest, you need to be within level range to have been able to accept it in the first place. That's how I assume it works since I tried a few things and couldn't turn it in these situations, but you can turn in low level combat quests from...

    Fnatic plays Morphling often and Era gets out of control pretty often too. To be honest, after all the buffs, he's fucking strong. He's not as strong as TI2 obviously, especially the fact Morph costs like 3times more than it used to but he's still fucking strong atm and he can still do the same...

    12 or so, it's part of the main story quest. Only takes a few hours of playing to get there and it is definitely a good advice, assuming it will work like between beta phases(and it's very likely), since it means you'll have quite a bunch of leves ready for release if you want to solo, level...

    Maybe what's not going to be in at launch is LFR(LFG tool pub raids) for Crystal Tower. It could be interpreted that way, that they wanted to have an easy mode version of the raid for pubs to enjoy but they couldn't get it done in time so they're pushing it back, but that the normal version...

    Well neither side can finish the game without risking losing it, so yeah. I don't even know what DK is waiting for at this point. Maybe they should all sell an item and buy 5 necrobooks and just suicide them on the rax over and over.

    If you mean mid tower, Tobi called it a deny but Visage actually killed it with familiars during the song. Still the songs were amazing, the calldowns were amazing(always hitting 3+ people which is part of why Loda wasn't completely worthless even with no items at all), the centaur micro was...

    It's a technical issue, one that they don't seem to want to bother fixing. Basically if you're in an instance, you're on a separate server. And they don't have cross server chat. They explained that before on the beta forums.

    Yeah basically they confirmed no wipe for P4 unless critical bug(unlikely). 16-19 for P3 testers, capped at 20. Early access won't down between the 26 and the release either, it's basically start on the 24th no interuption after that. Pretty short P4 but with the cap it should be fine, just...

    It's in a couple of hours, translation will be up soon after on reddit and shit as usual. Mostly the only really important info will be P4 dates and early access dates, but I guess they will show the Arcanist UI, talk about chocobo leveling and that kind of stuff too, so it should be pretty...

    No, he was added at the last minute in TI1, he was announced way beforehand for TI2 as a member of the panel. It's ok you don't like him or whatever so you can keep on hating and how it's unethical to see chest hair at a time kids can watch or whatever the fuck is your problem. The guy is...

    They weren't introducing the tournament, they were introducing the panel. That's part of his personna and style, he's been there for every TI and he always has an unbuttonned shirt.

    Main at 30, sub at 15. You can pick spells from your main, your sub and one more(which can be lvl 1, doesn't matter, but you're not gonna get anything from it if you don't lvl it obviously). Edit: Well yeah we don't actually know for sure, that's how it worked before.

    They had already planned their trilane from the start, that's why Naga. The issue is they should actually have changed it when they saw Nyx pick. You can't go Mirana trilane against Nyx cause he just stands in front of your arrows and carapace and you're fucked everytime you try to kill someone...

    The tier system and attributes system isn't really a completely flat progression, it's still very similar to levels, only that you don't have as big of a progression and there's a lot less levels. Say there's 3 tiers in EQN eventually, that means there's basically 3 levels. 1, 15 and 30, to use...

    At low level maybe, iirc the tests by the legacy players showed very little differences, other than larger aoe so you can hit more targets/pick up targets faster and the self healing which has various uses like surviving if your healer is dead or simply letting your healers get mana back/move...

    If it was that simple, everyone would do it. Bulldog can play a decent BH, Bat or Clockwerk too and those heroes can easily be as impactful as prophet. You definitely want to ban Sylla but Furion is a harder ban and having to pick him means it severely limits your draft too plus you have to pick...

    Not in all of them no. But come on you watched that video? The mobs slide around, attack when not out of range, and god the fucking first person animations, I think they're worse than Darkfall and that's made by a team of like 15 greek people. The animations both look like shit in terms of...

    I don't think that's entirely true, it's not as volatile as SC2 sure but there are some ways to force a gamble and put even good teams into a bad position. Mostly this is done with extreme push strats, which are akin to 6pool, 4gates and whatever else(I don't really follow SC2 so maybe this shit...

    Well from the looks of it Paladin seems like the superior tank, Marauder looked like it was designed as an aoe/damage tank but the difference in damage or aoe threat/mitigation doesn't appear to be particularily noticeable, their aoe does have a fairly large range compared to the PLD though so...

    We don't know. We don't know shit really, until the 8th where we will most likely know all their plans for P4 and early release, but until then, no one knows anything besides assumptions and older announcements which might or might not be accurate anymore and don't give any exact details anyway.

    Well what he means I think is that it's potentially easier for a worse team to cause an upset in a bo1 than it would be in a bo3, so it gives an edge to shittier teams to reach top8. I think it's kinda stupid too and wish they had started bo3 at round2 instead of round4 but eh.

    I really hope classes aren't what they're going to monetize. Especially if classes acquisition is done via quests or other similar stuff, and not "kill 200 shadowknight NPCs to unlock the shadowknight class" kind of shit. In general I don't like the "unlock shit by spending x time or by spending...

    They updated brackets and stuff for the main event. Alliance picked LGD.cn to play first while Na'Vi picked Orange(#1 seeds pick tied teams they want to play).

    Not really, from what they said there won't be useless stats, plus unlike dota/hon, you can't actually equip whatever you want on whatever class you want. Each class defines your armor and your weapon choices, unless I read that wrong, which means you won't be able to equip a bow on a wizard...
