Yeah, 80% of the people bitching and being retards are going to be playing within the first week. They'll move some goalposts, make some excuses, but mostly they're just loud retards who wanted updoots from other retards in their EQ autist community to feel cool because they're 48 years old.

Trials CAN be fun when you get decent relics for 75% resist and max honor. Even then you can get absolutely fucked if you can't see enough rooms ahead and brick your whole run. If you're not going for a no-hit it's pretty trivial with good movement speed/shield block. I ran a few for fun last...

It's ALSO one month included at the $20 price. That's pretty good deal for buyers. I think they're going to be scrambling at month 2 though to add more content if they don't have some new stuff lined up quick. Still if they get 5k purchases at $20 that's probably a decent surge in revenue for...

The unaffected by chilled ground passive doesn't work. Still get chilled, still get slowed even though it doesn't show your character sheet change either way, but you ARE slower. Hopefully they fix that. This patch has been HUGE in terms of all sorts of shit, but also buggy as fuck. Like...

People in EQ are pretty much known for starting over completely ever X years/months.

Weird class choices there. Ranger for mages seems really strange, but PALADIN for enchanter pet? Holy that's crazy. Like is it going to heal you? Does it have LoH? Is it supposed to tank as one of the worst controlled pets in the game? Will it compete with charm pets? Strange stuff.

I think it's been said a lot over the past 8 months or so, but they just have a bad power curve for the campaign. A lot of it is fixed by having access to second-run stuff like infinite supports and tier 5 supports and twink weapons, but it's just rough. Act 1 is the most punishing because you...

From patch notes just released:

This is a show that was made for a way worse actor and yet for some reason Colin Farrell is the star. Some of the acting is just like Tubi level bad by the other actors. The writing isn't particularly strong either, but I guess people will keep watching because of the overall "story".

Peak of 760 isn't bad, think there's a couple around 900 though. Obviously this is just steam and I doubt boxers run all their babbi pc's with steam AND you can legally multiclient on this server versus Teek which I think had like ~970. So probably overall pretty popular.

Mannn that sucks for the new Spirit Walker who gets penalized for using runes in gear instead of idols. Super funny that they added it THIS expac. Might be a tweak coming there as that just makes that perk a big no-no for this league and it's honestly probably needed to make any companion +...

Yeah I did a lot of different zone during early Velious. Chardok B was good if you did it around lvl 55. Veksar was good if you had slay undead because those mobs were up to 61. Hate2 was decent, but if you weren't assassinating those mobs had a fuck ton of hp. Funny enough, HTOV wings were...

Guess the Q&A with mark/jonathan/ghazzy/darth yesterday resulted in Jonathan getting them to add the ability to jewel orb item skills now. So you don't NEED a level 20 skill on an item which will be huge for getting a lot of builds rolling. You'd still want a level 20 for max dps and maybe...

Zone exp modifiers, mob density, item evolution, and the insane amount of AAs you needed to beat highest end content or to cap out your character. Crawling through Velks took twice the time for 1/2 the AA of DN AEs. Pet cucks killed slower than undead slayers, but you were still running mob to...

I did. Here where your options: You can AE a zone? AE a zone! or You can slay undead? You're either fucking around in Veksar at max level or living in Lguk at ~35! Wowwee! or You're a pet cuck. You can kill stuff easily and fast, but you either sit in a high-traffic place like Umbral...

So you either AE'd or You happened to be a pet character that then would have to leave their game running to get AA's, which was, funnily, against their terms and bannable. Not great options.

I stand corrected! It was hard to find for sure with their reddit posts and websites getting nuked. Also I found there were SOME items with +spellpower (like 5 to 10 and it seemed rare). The only example I could find a picture of was in the thread from that time of the summoned cleric lvl 50...

Don't worry, that probably makes up 70% of the actual EQ base and probably 90% of DPG's funding because they don't use kronos for their account and forget to turn off their credit card billing long after they quit.

Man reading through that thread is eye opening. You know why no one can compare Classic THJ to Classic EQL? It DIDN'T EXIST. Kunark was in at launch. You beat naggy+vox and you unlocked Kunark so there was a threshold, but there's literally no comparison. Also a lot of those posts are...

From the THJ thread: "THJ was just fun". This is the misremembering, rose-colored glasses, nostalgia for 1999 type brainfog that dooms this place.

Also I wonder if Runecrafting shit is crafting tagged. You do use a bench to do it at some point afaik. That could be an issue.

There's people who don't like EQL's choices, people who just want THJ 1:1 back, people who hate DPG, and people who hate life and are always miserable and must make people suffer as well. They're all present here. Some of those are fine, but are like weird boomertism culture war buttpussy hurt...

Yeah this is more or less what I figured. Seems they just added some RNG to the finishing of the items, but you can get fucked on RNG at the finishing steps and still have a pretty good item/item you can just sell with the new changes. It does seem weird they did the "crafted" modifier when it...

Abyssal modifiers aren't considered crafting modifiers though and that's how people were finishing off most of their crafts.

The AEing entire zones in THJ was fun for sure, but it was also mandatory. You HAD to be able to kill 48 rats or all of Nadox on cooldown + pull time just to get enough AA's to be "ready" for raid content or get the augs you were putting in every slot. I don't know of anyone who was AEing...

I saw that crafting nerf and outside of maybe fracturing and recombinator, which is removed, I'm unaware of multi crafting shit with "crafted" mods. I'm sure there are some, but for normal players I don't think it mattered at all unless buying some giga item "failure" some one is selling as an...

Luclin + Classic means they have to do a bunch of shit to make sure MTX's work on both. Much easier to keep it classic. I prefer classic models, but if having Luclin as an option is always fine, until I watch some streamer and they have that dogshit on.

Some bigtime hater Copium. I will say 100% getting a beta key early would burn a lot of people out before the release. Kind of a bittersweet thing. That's assuming there's not more than there is presently going to be added at launch like events, new dungeon rebalances, etc. 40k+ people...

50% off beta access is interesting. One last giga money grab before 1.0 launch.

THJ had the same thing. SEQ based on your tracking ability, but everyone gets "some". It's really nuts if you're a Ranger mix because you can see basically the entirety of every zone on your map.

Also reminder they're doing a stream today at 6pm EST/ 3 PST and giving away 50 more beta keys during it on Twitch.

I think it just shows they want Ascendancies to actually be UNIQUE unlike in POE1 where a lot of ascendancies are just more of x mechanic or less of this or this mechanic happens when that mechanic happens. These Ascendancies are, almost overwhelmingly, so unlike each other it's like adding...

Zerker is very popular for melee heavy builds as their stance is insane with double haste (but they take more dmg and take damage each hit) so people running stuff like Zerker/Monk just rip stuff up. Guildmate was Clr/Zerker/Monk because Cleric has a heal on every hit thing that countered the...

I'm hearing corruptions are client side and the Chinese gamers figured out how to manipulate the outcomes? That's some 2009 online game shit.

Yeah it used to be MOST SPIRIT BESTEST SUMMONER, but they've added so many reservation things and spirit scaling that there really is options. I played a Druid with the hidden passive points summoner and it was amazing because the passives were meaningful. I'd love to see some monk summoners...

The irony is Chalupa monk got buffed in two separate patches. Pretty majorly in 0.3 if I remember.

They're gonna have to fix that instancing problem. It'd be one thing if shit didn't just respawn, but if it locks you out of the normal picks TOO, that's fucked. How many people you think kicking themselves for self instancing LGuk, clearing it, then having nothing to do for 2 hours.

Monk + Ice is my favorite flavor of archetype for PoE2, but since this seems VERY popular I'll probably wait until second character to play it. I've done monk melee cold, monk proc cold, and monk bow cold. They're pretty cool, but my knowledge of highest end mechanics is lacking to make them...
