I agree that Destroyers should be more popular given the potential that they have in 1v1 while still being pretty solid for PVE. Their damage is just incredible for arenas and it's actually a fairly in-depth class; their most devastating combo/lock is similar to the KFM one and can practically...

Played a lot of arena and I've had a hell of time breaking into the 1700 ratings, anytime I get close (1695 was the closest I can recall) I would go on a bad losing streak. It seems like every second match is against a KFM at that point. In terms of class breakdown after about 100 matches (in...

Last beta weekend. Time to make a final class selection.

Korean patch came out with a new class that looks pretty interesting. Really curious what type of release schedule we'll be looking at down the line for NA.

What class are you planning on going with? Are we going to end up playing the same thing again?

Lets be real here. That was the true deciding factor.

Clans are indeed locked to faction. We've been going Cereulean (blue) but I don't think it'll have a large impact outside of the clan restrictions given the on-the-fly switching. I told Taxt he could play tank for this one since I wanted to try something else out.

This is close to my plan as well. I'm pretty set on LBM but I want to try some of the other classes out this weekend. On that note you should totally come play with us (especially if you decide to roll one of the casters!)

To be fair your ability to answer that question correctly might very well set you above most average MMO players these days.

I actually thought that it'd be way worse. I didn't play on any of the private servers and my arena win rate has been exceptionally good. A lot of that probably comes from only queuing after I hit 45 and taking some time to make an actual PVP spec but I was expecting to deal with a substantial...

Why do you have to go calling me out like that, I was making a point god dammit! You should totally come play some BNS with us. I'd kill for some people interested in playing the caster classes.

It's a video game. A source of entertainment. It isn't something that you need to set a time commitment for; It's something that you should be able to enjoy in your free time. The only deciding factor on whether or not it was 'worth it' should be whether or not you could have found something...

I don't understand how you don't understand that not every gaming experience needs to be the second-coming of MMO Jesus to be worth playing. Do you follow that logic in everything you do? Like, do you refuse to go to a good restaurant because it isn't cuisine greatness? Do you refuse to watch...

Another Habs win. I know it's stupid early to be thinking about the playoffs but with the way the East looks this year I just don't see how we don't make the playoffs with good positioning. There's a lot of hockey left to be played and injuries happen but I'm curious to see how management is...

That was my point. It's a completely different game if X play happens differently, which is why saying that 'had one play gone differently we would have won by 1' is bad logic. This is only ever true if that one play is almost at the end of the game (i.e. the Superbowl). Not to pick on you...

That's only true if the Patriots would have played the game in the exact same fashion had things worked out for Indy, which obviously isn't the case. Indy should take solace in the fact that it was a much closer game then the 'experts' gave them credit for but to say that they were one play away...

Just finished it (I know, I'm a little behind). I agree with the sentiment regarding the Fool; I strongly disliked him throughout this one. It felt less like he was trying to push Fitz for the greater good and more like him just being a whiny bitch. Hobb still knows how to hit the feels...

While I agree that the expansion was a tremendous let down from an end-game content perspective, I don't understand how you could think that Savage would not require ideal group make ups to progress in. My original group found this out when the game first launched - we had like the world 5th or...

No. Like any MOBA, the default buy options are atrocious. Smite's shop is far less complex then say DOTAs but it still requires you to understand the game a bit before you figure out what builds to go for. For instance, every God needs to figure out when to prioritize beads/amulets depending on...

I finished reading it. It was pretty bad. Not quite book 2 bad but still pretty bad.

Finished my full 180 set 3 nights ago. Fuck the current state of hunts, it's basically guaranteed that I'll never level up a different armor type. That was some of the most boring grinding that I've ever done.

Level 60 dungeon queue times are longer than the dungeons themselves. I get a queue every hour / hour and a half as a tank; I can only imagine how painful it must be to queue solo as a DPS.

Remember at the half when they threw a TD when everyone was saying it was stupid not to just go for the FG given the time on the clock? That worked out well for them and they looked like they were geniuses. Immediately following that everyone was talking about how Caroll had huge balls. I...

That's an interesting equivalency. One results in giving them a new set of downs on the 1 yard line - the other results in shitty field position on the kick off (that wouldn't have happened in the first place if the first isn't called). Seems fair.

There's a pretty good chance that you're not reading it right.

I'd be pretty upset if I were a Detroit fan. Taking back the PI call after having announced the penalty is something I can't recall ever seeing before. Given the fact that it was a playoff game I can somewhat understand the no call on Dez running onto the field without his helmet but it's still...

I read it. I think his warning at the beginning is well merited. The most action in the book is when Auri is making soap; as he himself says it's not a traditional story and it fails at delivering anything a standard story should. Selling it for 15 bucks is something he probably felt bad...

1- A lot of the group content has been plagued with exploiters who are able to use game breaking bugs to defeat encounters / make PVP a complete joke. The official stance at Carbine is that players who have used these bugs to defeat encounters / reach an 1800 rating will not face any...

We just hit 5/6 last night as well keeping our 3 night a week schedule. I'm half tempted not to look up anything about the batteries based on this post alone.

Our Phage Maw kill for anyone interested:

A bit of both. Esper are a poorly designed class from the onset but things having been improving for them. The issues that Espers have were never performance based (they scale really well) but their lack of mobility was painful. This could have still worked with some clever tweaking but giving...

We're still recruiting. We keep an open invitation to anyone from RR - you can get a tag but be warned that most of our players are 50 and focused on raiding. If you're interested in raiding we certainly still have some roster spots but whether or not you raid depends on how quickly you can get...

Patch 2 dropped yesterday and saw quite a few people on my friends list that hadn't been on in awhile. If anyone is curious about some of the raids were doing here's some shameless videos:

Much to my anger. I will never forgive or forget the great Datacube dabacle of Stormtalon, Cinge.

Sure. I stream all of our raids of which they'll be one tomorrow from 9pm to 1am EST.Twitch

Yes. You have to be so very completely out of touch with the raid scene to believe that it is even possible that anyone is raiding 15-20 hours in a month during progression. I just browsed my servers guild recruitment forum to try to find a singular guild that raided what amounts to 5 hours a...

Huh? Unless I'm miss-reading Cinge's post he was talking about number of hours that raiders raid in a MONTH. If you think that during progression (of which all Wildstar guilds currently fall under since no one has cleared all raid content) guilds raid 15-20 hours in a month then I don't know...

It's not even close to a difficult fight to do straight up. I'd like a nightmare mode that guarantees a purple from the loot drop. You can make his conal attack rotate and add a secondary set of lasers that go the opposite directions and keep going during large laser phase. Also make it so CC...

What's even funnier is the part where they're not even contending for world firsts but struggling mightily to contend with server firsts on a low pop PVE server.

Pretty much this. The other raiding guilds are constantly talking to me about the progress they're making on bosses and who has the better guild / who has the best single group time for dungeons. Any time I stream I still get 150-200 viewers on a pretty consistent basis talking about dungeon...
