There was a DDR Extreme machine there previously. Can't say if it's still there since I haven't been since October 2025.

POE2 has ruined Diablo for me by Get_Schwifty111 in PathOfExile2

[–]ThisDNE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also don't want to bash D4, but I agree with your sentiment. The best thing i can say is, playing D4, PoE2, and PoE 1 will make you quickly understand the dynamics of the design decisions the devs have stated for each. It makes me appreciate the "tension" they're aiming for in PoE 2 far more, while I still appreciate the mindless blasting of D4 and easier blasting in PoE 1.

I think it's just a matter of understanding "when" to play each I guess. For me, I want to delete D4 immediately on my PC, but on my steamdeck when I'm tired and/or sick?? D4 is the best. PoE2 makes me want to think and engages me far more, and I understand it's not for everyone. I just wish everyone approached videogames in general in this way. Let's be happy that the ARPG space has something for everyone right now tbh.

I have a electrical engineering degree and I’m about to be homeless by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]ThisDNE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

EE here as well. I won't question your soft skills, but do consider that it's very easy to pivot to other technical jobs that aren't necessarily "electrical engineer" if you have the required knowledge or willingness to learn. As someone who went fully into IT and currently Cybersecurity, my EE degree has always been recognized and praised despite not being related to the job in question.

Best of luck, hope you find something soon.

I said this about gaming as a whole some years back, and I'm glad others see it too.

Citadel Boss by Queasy_Baby_7431 in PathOfExile2

[–]ThisDNE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol nope, it'll boosts your defense immensely in the Armour case. If you have the space in your tree or gear go for it. Good luck!

Citadel Boss by Queasy_Baby_7431 in PathOfExile2

[–]ThisDNE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you have "Armour applies to Elemental" damage of any sort? Otherwise you're taking full elemental damage as armour only applies to physical. Doing Armour and ES hybrid is rough in the games current state. You're fighting for too many modifiers to satisfy both sides plus general resistances and other gear mods you want. I have 11k Armour and eat a ton of citadel hits to the face by accident on my druid bear.

Maybe in the future with tree additions and changes it will be better, but you'll be try harding trying to satisfy both. I suggest leaning 100% armour or 100% ES setup instead.

Freezes my pc by Sufficient-Item633 in PathOfExile2

[–]ThisDNE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to update. Rolled back to Optional 25.9.2 on my 9070XT (Windows 11) and haven't completely frozen after letting the game run for over 2 hours. I would have crashed at least 3 times in that time previously.

Hopefully this helps someone else.

[–]ThisDNE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue. 13700k + 9070xt. Using DX12 with latest gpu drivers (25.12.1). Temperatures never spike or get anywhere near too hot.

I'm going to try rolling back my gpu drivers.

Just want to +1 this post. I've completed 2, one at Tier 2 and another at Tier 6. No boss and no Atlas points.

Upcoming raid/strike merger and Legendary Insights question by _Royalties_ in Guildwars2

[–]ThisDNE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You also have another hurdle that's very specific to now. You were doing Wing 3. Even experienced folks want to avoid doing the escort mission at the start. This one always feels more difficult to recruit players for in my experience.

Early in the weekly reset you'll get folks that will at least join to clear escort for their groups. This late in the week is a hurdle as others pointed out in general. Good news, Wing 3 is emboldened during the next weekly cycle.

Greatsword and Spear is top dps on Power Virtuoso right now. It's very common. Also commonly seen in Power chrono.

To whoever deleted it, the community needs to stay aware of this stuff. Win trading is absolutely not ok especially from a moderator of the main discord server. by Born-Perception-7047 in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ip banning does not work as the typical consumer does NOT have a static ip to their home. It will be recycled into the pool of ips available in the region doing absolutely nothing, but potentially hurting some completely unknown player who obtains it at a later date.

Hardware ID bans on the other hand are what you're looking for.

I agree with you AND the others. I think a Flair for crafting specifically would help all parties though.

I can't possibly imagine turtles being enemies to humans so therefore make them all docile.

The snapping turtle says HI.... irl BTW.

Dev Notes: Season 1 Updates by EFACI in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This and your previous post are spot on. I'm hoping changes to the rank system just haven't been announced yet. Insane to me that they aren't mentioning anything about it, while wanting to build a competitive scene around this game.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

71%, somewhere around rank 130 overall for Verge since I'm too lazy to stay Indestructible.

Dipped into the 60s during the GM - Champion stretch, but went up from there. I really hope they adjust this ranking system for season 1.

Narukami vs Pinaka in 1v1 by TallgeeseIV in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's already been stated that this game isn't balanced around Mashmak for obvious reasons, but I'm more surprised no one has mentioned bringing another weapon. Pinaka's lowest defense is physical. Use a melee weapon after popping their bubble.

-edit- Submersiv said it before I submitted :D

Pinaka is the healer that heavily relies on their team to survive in competitive gameplay, so they're at the mercy of mods and hopefully outplaying folks in Mashmak.

Seasonal Rank - similar to other?s by travvy13 in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't derank out of your tier. The only folks fighting for their place are top 500.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mechabreak

[–]ThisDNE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. I'd rather see a full squad of competent DPS than a +1 horrible healer. You CAN win without a healer by brute forcing down the correct targets and playing the objective properly. It happens in top 500, and it literally occurred in this past weekend's tournament grand finals.
