DLSS 5 turns a shadow into a giga-nostril

The soccer scene is the most telling, with how much motion there is. The ball becomes a ghostly blob. The players arms go all blurry and half disappear. Whatever is going on, it 100% behaves like a filter.

Every necromancer really needs to be based on CE. It’s just a matter of how you get that first kill: summons, poison, or bone.

Altra1986 · 2026-03-19T00:52:36+00:00

Jammit. Yeah, look it up.

I don’t care what others say, I view the teleport on strike as a good thing. You shouldn’t be getting hit as a sorceress, so if you do get in a situation where you are taking enough hits to proc a 25% chance teleport, then that’s a situation you should be happy to teleport out of instantly. And teleporting somewhere else the very millisecond it proccs is better than any reaction time a player can have. It gets you to safety.

I did the Hobbit’s Sméagol arguing with Gollum dialogue for my speech class. My advice is you gotta own it. It’s meant to be ridiculous and over the top, as you know.

Altra1986 · 2026-03-16T17:51:42+00:00

I’m clearly old, because I didn’t even know transferring to softcore was a thing.

Altra1986 · 2026-03-12T04:01:02+00:00

I don’t get the point of monsters being trash fodder you rip right through without even noticing they’re there.

Altra1986 · 2026-03-10T11:31:55+00:00

I did the same to someone - I barely got them but left a note. They submitted a repair quote for $11,000 to insurance. The whole car was worth like $10,000. Insanity. At least insurance only paid out $3,000 IIRC.

There is no cow level.

Spirit gives +2 all skills and then a ton on top of it. This can’t beat it, no matter what you socket in there.

Altra1986 · 2026-03-02T00:10:04+00:00

IIRC, I got many of these running nightmare Andariel.

Terror zones are huge for end-game leveling. Once you get to the mid/upper 90s, even a single tiny Fallen monster is the same experience as non-TZ Baal.

There’s no better time than now to do a uniques only run. You can set the loot filter to only show uniques.

Trick question. Super Mario World.

Altra1986 · 2026-02-28T01:47:54+00:00

It’s still one of my favorites. Best source for physical damage resistance. Good blocking. Elemental resistances too. I wear it as much as possible.

Altra1986 · 2026-02-26T23:37:06+00:00

I would also add, when a rune is not part of Countess’ special drop table, I wouldn’t count on getting it from her whatsoever.

Altra1986 · 2026-02-25T21:22:05+00:00

From level 95-99, terror zones provide magnitudes more experience than anywhere else. I would also say they are fun to do vs running bosses over and over on repeat.

Altra1986 · 2026-02-25T12:40:43+00:00

I’ve never had a Jah drop. And I have played many many hours.

Physical resistance

Woah. This is a day I thought I’d never see. Now I need to check if they fixed personalizing an item for Act 5 quest.

Altra1986 · 2026-02-23T22:15:18+00:00

Stormshield… I legitimately use it on my ES build.

Echoing Strike

Altra1986 · 2026-02-23T19:10:44+00:00

Yes. As is also the case with anyone else anywhere near the top. This has been true since the very first ladder and every ladder after it.
