That's at ~115k kills. One divine from a merc's pocket.

Last league I had ~2 raw divines by 140k kills if I remember.

For any of you getting into "tier 16.5" maps. Don't alch roll them. You'll have a bad time. Carefully alt roll them because they're giga overtuned and I'm running around as a 150k ehp glad getting fucking obliterated.

Yea i missed out on a divine (would have been my first and only) cuz of a one tap by a merc.
There must be a merc killing service on softcore by now. I know if I lost out on a mirror from a one shot I may delete the game

Who needs determination anymore, we got 5k armor chests now

Gonna cost me about a zillion divines to fix the suffixes though

Classic "Just tell them it was DDoS" response to a shitty launch. It's weird how DDoS attacks plague the gaming industry yet don't seem to trouble almost any other industry at all, ever.

When some people crash every 5 minutes and others can play with no issues at all for hours on the same servers it's more than a little suspect that its DDoS.

It's the same old story. Nobody wants to pay for extra capacity at launch when they can just implement a queue, and nobody wants to pay for Cloudflare Spectrum to protect game servers at layer 4 which is very expensive compared to your run of the mill layer 7 website protection. Combine those two things together, add in the fuck-ups on consoles, and last weekend is what you get.

Most of the time it's probably some callback function in the code that ties up resources in some way.

Technically a DDoS!

Really enjoyed this League mechanic and the Snaking build. But fuck these servers in the ass. I got 4 rollbacks and lost tons of shit yesterday and the same today.

Time to quit until they get some sort of bandaid in for this. Want to finish the Kirac Vault but not going to smash my head against the wall for it.

Man I don’t get it, I am not having this problem at all. Have you tried Cali or Texas servers? I think I’ve had two crashes/ rollbacks the entire league and I’ve played a ton.
I do have crashes during the new boss fights but there’s no rollback with those, think it’s unrelated

I 'finished' my giga armor chest. I threw a few tailoring orbs at it but there were only 10 total for sale and they are like 50c each, so I'm probably not gonna get the % defense enchant sadly.

It needs one more suffix but I can't think of anything to do besides just raw slamming it

I'm on europe and they are messed up. Might try some east coast server later and see if the ping is ok.

Need to divine that flat armor roll :)

I got a ilvl84 26% qual one to drop, 50/50 recombinated it to bring it to ilvl 86 and luckily linked it in a 100 or so fuses, then triple split it and made some money on the 2 i didnt use.
Still haven't really crafted it obviously cause i'm saving money for other stuff (the % armor is only tier 4). And i would try to tailor orb it but that could brick the 6link (had to link before split and tailor orb can't be split anyway).

If you're playing VFoS, get an eruptor merc with flame link for a huge damage bonus.

The east coast server has the same issues, all of the servers do. Some people seem to be fine, others are fucked.

I didn’t even intend it but my merc is just wrecking t16.5s , clearing shit before I can get there, some arc caster with shock nova. I’m thinking I should just wear a leercast and follow them around. She did die during shaper though which was surprising

So what all are people doing with their atlas tree? I’ve decided to do heist / betrayal as I know betrayal had a lot of changes, and heist is just easy blueprint money + huck is a beast. Other than that, just eater altars and a ton of scarab nodes like always.
Is there a giga profit tree meta this league or is it a free for all
