    Path of Exile

    2 gems of Enduring Cry to generate more charges, Increased Duration support with quality if possible on IC, potentially the increased buff duration passive. You're not actually invincible though, simply immune to physical, you can still get killed by spells. Also IC has a short cast time which...

    I can see the complaint but it's not necessarily a FPS thing, just a can you sit down for 4+ hours and be focused the entire time on a video game. In a mmo you don't have to when raiding, sure the raid might take a while but there's a fuckton of lulls, like between pulls, after wipes, before...

    Better explanations is linkshells are basically chat channels that are invite only, that's all they do, you can be a member of multiple linkshells. Free Companies are guilds, even though I don't know if there's a lot of features atm, but guild housing is planned and there might be guild storage...

    Right, I still have trouble getting used to the fact that a gladiator is the shield user, feels more like a 2H user name to me, but eh. Obviously yeah meant MRD for all of that. On alts, the main advantage I feel is having quests again and accumulating leves on 2 different chars. I think for...

    I guess that's the price you pay for saving 80g and not using Teleport instead ^^.

    Really? All I've seen was how the fairy would provide "aoe healing" and that sounded to me like Scholars would be "raid healers" while WHM would be tank healer. It'd be nice if Scholar was basically 5 healing abilities but I don't know I'll wait to see it, and doesn't change the fact you'll have...

    Yeah overall I think most of the jobs had useful and interesting abilities, other than WHM. The issue lies in the current classes though. There is only one healing class in the job, there's 2 other supports jobs but being jobs you can't cross class from them(bard+scholar) while those jobs can...

    EQ Never

    If they were to release this year, it would be what, 3months beta(between the time it'd take to setup the beta, send invites, get ppl to dl client, run tests, then prepare for release). Do we really need a mmo with such a short beta? Sounds like a stupid fucking idea.

    DOTA 2

    Cause obviously that's all that's needed to last hit. I mean sure there's a lot of terrible carries but farming in a contested lane isn't as easy as just clicking creeps. If you're in a freefarm lane though it's a shame missing last hits, even though you'll still miss a few every now and then...

    It's only main and sub class, no 3rd class. And job is only those 5 spells, mentionned that already last page and it's the same as 1.0. WHM arguably has some of the worst job skills though, regen is only the thing that stands out a bit and not even that much. Thing is you don't have to play WHM...

    There's a place on reddit with keys but I forgot what's the name, there's also dota2bot(google it, it's basically a bot on steam you add him to friends, send him the right message and he gifts you a key) or you can buy one for like 2cents on the stream trade place thing but since you can get...

    They've been the best for a little while already. Na'Vi can definitely beat them, so can a few other teams in good days, but overall they're the best western team.

    DOTA 2

    I thought they wouldn't have the dmg to win this because treant bane no dmg, weaver bat lich fairly low dmg, but apparently it works alright if your weaver has living armor and can dive the supports into the base at 20mins and repeatedly kill them without getting punished. The TA pick was highly...

    While his best 2 heroes, sadly he can also play a bunch of other shit. His Bounty Hunter was pretty strong back when BH was all the rage for example.

    Hunting log is pretty easy to see because every mob in your log will have some sort of circle above their names, a bit like if it was a quest mob. So you kill those and it'll display in your chat how many you need and how many you have. There's 10 groups of mobs to kill(sometimes it's just one...

    It seems there's only assets for the second map, I don't think they can fill a ton of maps, don't know for sure though. Don't really care too much but they're still missing their mentoring feature too they were talking about and the servers still take a shit often during the weekends so I don't...

    DOTA 2

    Interesting they confirmed that. I guess they plan on finishing the 2nd tutorial before then. Still weird they're gonna "release" without full heroes though, and with a bug list that's like 600-700 entries big.

    Jobs aren't until 30 anyway, I assume a storyquest will explain it to you once you reach that, but storyquests stopped before 30 in P3 anyway. Basically at 30 in a class, your class trainer will unlock a new quest which also requires 15 in another class to start, and it's like a specific job...

    Arcanist and jobs won't be until open beta/P4. Well jobs should be available to 1.0 players once they activate that(which should be next weekend) so we should get info on them at least. Arcanist nope.

    What's funny about FFXIV graphics is apparently their lightning engine shit isn't turned on cause they had issues with it, and what's even funnier is it looks worse than 1.0 on a lot of things because of the changes they had to do for the PS3. On the other hand, it still looks amazing AND runs a...

    Been watching dota since hon beta or so, I wasn't in the genre at all until I got into hon beta(and even then it took me a few months before I checked the game out). Very quickly after watching hon competitive I started watching dota1 competitive games even though I had never played dota so I...

    The way to do it which was most efficient was, unlock the chocobo in Vesper Bay(there is one even though there's no crystal), Attune to the crystal in Drybones and Horizon. Then from the Vesper starter, you use Teleport to the crystal in Drybones, you get the Teleport spell very early in the...

    For the quest chain he's talking about, there's no crystal in Vesper Bay where the HQ for the Resistance or whatever the name is, so you have to TP to the nearest town(Horizon I think it was) then do a 1min long chocobo run. Then you turn in the quest, pick next, and have to TP back to Drywood...

    I believe yes something else, but it might have been that video, hopefully not, I want to see spells and shit. As for the fairy, not a big deal to me, as long as it does a proper job. That's what I don't know, will the Fairy be casting ALL the heals, will it be squishy, that kind of stuff.

    Yeah I guess the downtime is a good point. Rezing retards who died to charging golems in MC after every pull, marking the 12 mobs of the next pull, doing a ready check to make sure not more than half the healers were afk, plenty of time to chat then. During combat though really not. I doubt...

    They said they'll show the Arcanist in a video probably, so maybe we can tell a bit more. But yeah when P4 starts I'll have to make an arcanist just to check all the spells and do a last minute choice for my class. I'm interested to see if Scholar will be like token side healer shit of if there...

    I think he means people who bought 1.0 and quit instantly. Granted it was pretty stupid to buy it if you've played the open beta at the time but eh. One of the few games I didn't buy. Considering the reduced price tag and the state of the game now though I'm definitely buying it, unless I get...

    You had time to type during wow when exactly? The only way that happened is if you were semi afking during the MC days and getting carried, wow initiated the fast paced fights trend with the 1.5s GCD and shit you have to press on cooldown, procs and what not. I think in Vanilla some specs might...

    Yeah they'll have more jobs per classes, even though I'm not too sure how it's going to work yet since currently jobs use the same weapon types as their base class but to add most of the obvious classes, they'll need to change that. Assuming they decide to change though, stuff that could easily...

    DPS isn't that bad actually, it's not as good but once you get Stone 2 and for like a dozen of levels, you kill stuff single target faster than a THM can(until they get Fire 3 which is like 32 or 34). It's not stellar but it's adequate, just the fact you only spam one spell is horribly boring...

    Well as far as I've seen grouping seems faster xp than soloing if you have a decent group. Mobs in dungeons die about as fast as solo mobs, but give about 5times more xp, which easily makes up for quests(which are not very abundant anyway), and if you're aoe spamming they die even faster...

    I don't think anything wins vs OD in mid without ganks, prison is just too good at buffing his damage, removing all mana from the enemy and making them miss last hits. The issue is what you can do with an OD. I mean, if you get to sit mid for 20mins you'll roll people no problem and that happens...

    You can only sync down for duty(instanced quest shit), guildleves/hests and dungeons, and well FATE if you run into one. But really that's basically all group content, you just can't sync down to do normal quests with a friend. And leveling additional classes is fine up to lvl 15 or so, but...

    They said in one of the dev thing that they made some of the dungeons in the original game into group based open areas with larger scale FATE(public quests), so there should be. I didn't see any though but I didn't lvl that much, only got to 22.

    You don't redo the main quests regardless, like you can't. You can only do one main quest, the one you start in. When you go to another starting zone, you can only do the class quests there for your new class, as well as the normal quests, but you only ever do the main quest once, in fact it...

    You don't redo the main story quests though. I guess you can grind dungeons but I don't know if it'll be that easy to find groups. However, it should be noted that the way they are currently balanced, you can complete the content without a CNJ, as long as multiple people have Cure slotted(and...
