    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    In this age, except for a few outliers, sub-based is not a valid long-term business model for your game. You need to design your game for the day it will have to go F2P, which means you'd probably better off starting with a F2P model. I think the best business model for any game is GW2's. B2P...

    I think you can buy up to 10 with no cooldown at all, it's just still costing 500 resources per AK. The catch-up item is 500 resource for a straight jump to whatever.

    I think it's previous tier -5, i.e. you can buy AK5 if you have a AK10-14 char, AK10 if you have 15-19, or AK15 only if you have 20-24 on your main (and of course AK20 if you're maxed)

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    Bought one, then today tried to buy a second box, and it says that my collection is complete. So, you can only buy one? If I'd known, I would have saved for a medium box, same saving of 50 over individual incubators, plus 2 extra incense.

    Ecept that the Chinese appear to do it "indoor" (in Tiangong 2), not space, and their claim is "It works. Trust us." (zero details on exactly how they test, what they test, etc)

    It also costs money. At the moment, the vast majority of people is completely convinced that it doesn't work. That whatever force they're measuring is an artefact of the system, not some strange and unknown effect. This is compounded by the fact that the effect doesn't seem to scale much...

    James S.A. Corey - The Expanse

    Finished Babylon's Ashes just before christmas. It was a bit slower and less packed than the previous ones, but that's basically because it's the second half of Nemesis Games. Too much Marco, not enough alien, I guess

    You need to have activated your first portal, i.e. unlocked Telemancer Occuleth and done the survey above the cave. After that, about half of the portals are unlockable directly, the other half are tied to quest progression.

    Don't know exactly how it works for tanks, but it was mainly about strategy on how to place it. Once we finalized our placing, it went from "wipe halfway thru P3" to "kill without a brez". Try doing ToV with 5 melee dps and 1 range (which was us yesterday before the nerfs). You almost can't...

    Yup. I caught only two Pikachus in the entire 6 weeks I was playing this summer, both of them at the same location. 5 since I restarted last week, and most of that week was "let's catch one Pidgey to the daily bonus".

    Yeah, that's what was assumed as well. Then we started getting model simulations and the possible scenarios to system creation exploded. The old, naive model was "planets form wherever, volatiles boil out innermost so you have rocky inner planets, not enough volatiles in outer so you have...

    Started again after autumn break. Did the CP change what 'mons are good or was it merely a calculation change, and they do the same damage as before? Any changes in the list of good/average/bad pokemons?

    We used to think Copernican principle would apply, and we'd have a typical system, and most star system would look like it. Then, we started finding exoplanets, and we found mostly weird shit like jupiter-sized stuff orbiting closer than mercury, and we think that no two star systems will be...

    Ah ah, MT got that neck yesterday. At first, it was like "well, ok, it's still an upgrade somewhat" About 5mn later, it was "WHO DO I MURDER? I WANT THIS SOUND TO DISAPPEAR!!!" (had to teach him how to shut the divine shield sound every 30s)

    Raiding has its place. There's basically two very different way you can approach raiding. The first is tightly tuned, hard-as-ass content that gives grand prizes. Heroic/Mythic raiding in WoW. (and before you call heroic raiding easy and trivial, think about how many people have actually...

    You don't need the achieve, but you need to have finished the Shal'Aran quest line up to Change of Seasons. After that, it's a weekly quest line for 9 weeks until you get your class mount.

    The largest difference in ease, unless you have a group that's going to gear you up, is finishing your class hall campaign and unlocking the 3rd relic slot. My 4th character just did that, and the ease of doing WQ shot up thru the roof. If you're hitting 110, doing that is your top priority...

    One of two things. Either patch 7.1.5 has hit, and you not only will have one additional branch with an Elite skill at the end, but every 3/3 skill will now be 3/4... Or not, and you will have to think about either stockpiling AP or spending it on stupid +% bonus.

    You do suicide runs on the first three-four sessions to get the upgrade chests (run into room with enough withered to carry chest, ignore elite, click on chest, "die", loot, upgrade, see you in 3 days). Once you start with 15 withered all upgraded to max, you can YOLO your way all to the end...

    Double gold on all 4 chars. Fun bit: I came on Nithogg, which was at 60% already and start hitting without joining a raid. Then the ToV LFR window popped up, so I accepted. And got loot popup during the trash clean toward Helheim since I was "still" in Stormheim. They weren't kidding when they...
