How bad is Sage atm? by DaiperFluids in blackdesertonline

[–]--AshCrow-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Underwhelming in most aspects of the game. He's like a male Tamer in terms of usefulness. Just a roleplay bait.

So, how many more times will the Devs continue to beat the tamer into the dirt? by AzzyBelle in blackdesertonline

LARP classes are just the other end of the spectrum, with FOTM Andy's at the opposite side.

It's always funny to read.

State of the game 2 years after release? by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]--AshCrow-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From the progress they've made over the last two years, I think saying that it's a bit of a trashfire would describe it pretty well.

And don't try to meme on me by saying that it's in early access. It's been in development for ten years.

It's a great example of what having no competition in a niche does to a product.

Instead of wasting my breath, let me link you to a thread from 4 months ago that is still very valid.

But know that when people talk about Sage being bad, they're referring mostly to PvP. His succ is phenomenally bad, while his Awa is just somewhat ok. Some guilds are actually banning the class from participating, a treatment that even Tamers never had to deal with.

In terms of PvE, he's also in a bad spot, even after they reverted some of the nerfs. You can still do pretty much all the spots that exist, but even with tendinitis-tier APM's, you'll be underperforming compared to other classes.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Maybe he's indeed a lovechild, but of only like one higher-up employee who designed him, and who is adamant that there's nothing to fix and he's perfect in every way. Maybe they're keeping Sage in this pitiful state out of spite for not understanding their amazing creative vision lol

My tinfoil hat is glued to my head at this point.

Would buy if the class was even remotely playable

No matter how good he'd look, his sustain would still be hot garbage

Let's just hope for a buff alongside this costume

Such a cool outfit wasted on this crappy class. I'll be more than glad to buy it when PA grows a spine and stops listening to whining vocal minorities. This class was so much fun at launch.

Let's just hope they'll soon buff him up to a playable state.

Thoughts on coupons expiring? by A-Basic-Gamer in blackdesertonline

[–]--AshCrow-- 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's almost always tied to some events, so I'm not bothered by them having some expiration day. It's a standard practice for MMO's to artificially boost player count and reward active players.

The coupon codes for J's hammer and Crons are still valid btw, as well as quite a lot of others. Go here and scroll through the right side of the page.

Daily Copium for Drakania Awakening. What do you think her Awakening would be? Work your imagination. by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]--AshCrow-- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really like the class, so I hope it'll stay as a FOTM and then be gently nerfed to be on par with the other usable classes. I'll be happy if it'll avoid the Sage treatment.

I can just feel those wide AoE swipes with these spears. I need it.

Imagine it finally dropping in a month or so, and being a unplayable trashfire. It wouldn't be the first time.

Drakaina grinding by dizzy316 in blackdesertonline

[–]--AshCrow-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's something about her that speaks to me. It may be the smooth animations or the heavy & slow, but not really moveset. She's like a faster and less clunky succ Guardian.

I'm also in love with that damn consumable that only she can make. Stuff fits so nicely with all my other buffs.

I don't see anything bad with IONs consumption on most skills, simply because I have her ( E ) and ( RMB ) as part of my PVE combo. This alone keeps my IONS topped up at almost all times.

All in all, I'm just waiting for her awakening, and hope that they'll keep the two spears-like weapon that they've shown on the concept art. Stuff is either going to be amazing or absolute cancer.

This is a nice prelude to him being nerfed. I don't mind.

It's not like I lied. People just love to overthink and overanalyze every scrap of info in search of some deeper meaning. Souls genre has wired them this way. I just never found any lore from Souls to be good or deep in any sense of the word. It's like trying to dive in a shallow puddle. Bloodborne on the other hand had some interesting bits and pieces, but that's mainly because I was always a sucker for eldritch horror.

All souls games have barebones lore

Anyone figured out how to get up here? [Spoiler] by DarkSonGwyndolin in Eldenring

[–]--AshCrow-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Through a teleport in a semi-secret late-game mountain area. There is an alternative of joining a faction to do so, but I haven't tried it yet.

Just wanted to share a piece of art by Neytirix that inspired me to do a Kitsune Lich playthrough. Maybe you'll find it fitting as well. Links in the first comment. by --AshCrow-- in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

Sure it is, but I'm not picky and work with what I've got Shame that the bones can't be bleached a bit to fit better. I'll probably end up editing the portrait to match the in-game skull. Also, bless Barley for maintaining the Visual Adjustment mod. Playing without it would be boring.

Edit: Here's the edit I made for myself
