    Which computer chair do you use? Needs to be poopsock viable

    When I started working from home nearly 3 years ago, I ended up switching out my generic office chair for a Herman Miller Aeron. Been in it probably 10 hours a day for the last 3 years. No regrets. I'd say having a forward tilt is pretty much essential for any office/gaming chair ...

    The weirdest thing about it is them drawing the diagrams about eye distances and trying to explain why they would pick left side for TV and middle for PC. No matter the distance your eyes are from the screen there will always be a further distance to move your eyes to the corner from the...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I'm a Hyundai fan. Drove a 2008 Elantra for 135k miles with basically no problems. Super reliable car. Finally got rid of it, but stayed in the same family and bought a Genesis G80. Really happy with it so far. Don't have a picture but there are plenty online.

    Been around since '99 and the noows days. Rarely post. Mostly just read the MMO, PC and mobile game forums (and screenshots).

    Wow. I don't really feel like going through the effort of proving this, but the girl he is joking about dying of cancer (his childhood friend) was my wife. We met playing EQ back in '99. She died of breast cancer back in June 2015 (at 39) that had metastasized to her lungs and eventually her...

    Epic Seven

    I pulled Dark Corvus .. what a let down. Looking through research he looks like he could be OK in PvP, but only with phenomenal gear and a healthy investment in his skills. Hopefully they rework him in the future because set next to something like ML Ken, or even Lorina he is disappointing for...

    Project Gorgon, round 2.

    I played it a month ago or so. I had played it a couple years before and still was able to access the game for free. I never made it off the starter island (originally it was a short cave tutorial and you were done). It is impressive knowing how small a team has worked on it, but it just felt...

    I know other mods who don't agree with muting for this. Nothing wrong with not wanting a bunch of people who can't speak your language in your group. These are all player, volunteer mods .. so get what you get, SJWs included.

    Good decision or not, they went back on a promise. The week before they were doing a very heavy sell on the founders packs, even implying that they would get in the game before the starter packs. They have also stated that with the new influx of people from starter packs the servers will most...

    I've been getting a bad feeling that this game was going to be a cash grab for a while now. After what they have done today, I think they are pretty close to confirming it. They reneged on giving Founders packs a head start over the new "Starter" packs and have everyone starting on the same...

    Yeah, they definitely are listening .. they just have no ability to predict. Hence the comments about reactionary development. I really do love playing the game, I just don't have much faith that they can get it "right". They are definitely trying hard, and working their asses off. They just...

    Totally agree that the black zone cities are worthless. Also, I'm taking it from the point of view of someone who spends 95%+ of their time in black zones, and never flags in red. I've got the highest reputation rating, so I'm perfectly fine with Fort Sterling being the main hub. I will admit...

    I actually enjoy the game, and have been playing for a while. Started off with KDS and am one of the founding members of Tea Party. With that said, what uniqueuser posted hits the state of development right on the head. The dev team is wholly reactionary and seems to lack any foresight at...

    Raw materials are always the most profitable. Refined materials sell quicker, and are easier to transport from black zones (if you are refining in guild territories), but you get less than the individual components. The bonus to refined mats is with focus/black zone refining stations allows...

    I personally wouldn't build Hwahee unless as an act of desperation because I have nothing else. She has found some niche uses such as in necro, but overall is sort of meh. I don't see you in the rerolled roster, or I'd give a suggestion. Feel free to send me an invite, I think I have room.

    I agree with Aevry. Wind Monkey is godly with the current Theo meta. He also has a great leader skill for raids.

    The ability to equip gear follows your character, not the gear. You don't put fame and work into a specific chest piece, you get fame to wear higher level chest pieces by wearing specific lower tier versions. If you are wearing T6 armor and die, then you can buy more T6 armor .. or pull...

    There are always people moving things around by themselves or in small groups. It isn't super difficult to avoid zergs outside of black zones. He is currently #4 in kill value (which is based on how many people you kill). Sure, he is a member of one of the bigger guilds and alliance, but my...

    You can be extremely effective with a small consistent group if your main goal is small scale pvp. There is one guy who runs with 1-2 others and just constantly moves his location. He ganks lone travelers and small groups all the time, and is pretty high on the fame rankings because of it. We...

    In the current incarnation of the game, you would have an extremely hard time as a casual solo player. Red zones would basically be suicide without certain specialized escape builds (medium hat/light or medium chest/medium boots). Even then, it would be extremely difficult to progress after a...

    I was a member of Paterno (Still CW) but ended up switching to KDS about a week ago due to them having more members online during US play times. I've been having a ton of fun with the game, and as you mention it is a completely different game once you are in a well organized guild / alliance...

    No, it doesn't cost the guild any points. It just costs you 10 energy, but you might surprise yourself and win.

    The trick is for everyone to hit the highestfull greenperson on the other team they can. We lost to a tank guild once again earlier today because everyone went for all the +3s. At most, in that situation you should hit one of each +3, +2, +1 .. and then the later people have to play some...

    There are a bunch of active people in both guilds right now. Check the first page of the thread for info on getting in the Line channel and guilds. Rerolled guild is often in the top 50 guilds, which means the competition is pretty hard. If you don't have some really nice monsters and runes...

    I don't think that rule was in place for the last rainbowmon event. My guess is it is due to all the max 4* rainbowmon out there from guild store. At least it means I can level up the rainbowmon I have saved to clear up some room.

    Wind Pierret can be built for massive single target damage, but the usefulness of that wears off later in the game. I probably would take her to 5* and see how things play out. Taking a monster to 5* is never a mistake, because they can be used to 6* something else later but a bad choice on 6*...

    Summoner's War - Sky Arena

    That is a good way to put it. I always feel like I'm bottom-of-the-barrel in the 'main' guild, but manage to hit ~13-14 consistently in contribution so I stick with it. It definitely hurts you on rewards when you are in the bottom half of the current guild's abilities, but at the same time it...

    My last, and fourth, 6* was my Shannon (Wind Pixie) and that allowed me to reliably complete Giants B10. She is kinda squishy as a 5* and the ~2k base life she gains from 6* makes it worth it. I don't even have her runed despair and I'd still say it is definitely worth it (Mine is...

    No shit. I foddered one, maybe even two early on when I didn't know any better and I really regret it. Once she she has the right runes, Lumirecia is a PvE beast. The problem is a lot of the common "wisdom" on Reddit and various "tier lists" says she sucks.

    Summoner's War - Sky Arena

    Yeah I guess I never really thought too hard about it and figured there must be some incentive to getting people to attack you. Seems odd that they will put the +4 glory next to every opponent since .. well .. it isn't like it ever varies except when you drop rank.

    Summoner's War - Sky Arena

    Looking at my defense record it shows +4 for every loss I've received. I could be misinterpreting that though. Never really looked into it closely. I know I lose a ton but my glory points just keep going up.

    Summoner's War - Sky Arena

    Yes they are trying to get you to attack them. They get glory points for losses as well, so the more people who they lose to the more points they gain. Interesting aspect is you get the same points for a loss or a win on defense. The only downside is you tank your rating so you will end up...

    Not just the rendering of players but just the transferring of information over the network as well. I know that Unity's built in network layer is trash if you are ever trying to scale it up, and you really need to code your own server. At one point before Unreal became free I was dabbling...
