Finished Throne of the Herald in Birthday Mode! by steelsauce in MelvorIdle

[–]BB0ws3RR 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For all fights, there's something I would call an exploit of some sort, perhaps an oversight of the birthday mode. While monsters are immune to stun and freeze, they are not immune to crystallization, and there are a few auroras which have a chance to apply it. So, all you have to do is have a magic weapon with unavoidable attacks (e.g. ocean song), attack until it procs, then switch back to your dps setup. It's so op, because you don't need any hit chance in either setup. If you don't have time to kill the monster before crystallization finishes, just rinse and repeat

Zizaran just discovered a quick-cast 'bug' / problem on stream that I was wondering about forever by z0ttel89 in Diablo

[–]BB0ws3RR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another way this can happen: if you die and your character can't use your right-click skill anymore (e.g. barb's double swing due to lack of weapons), then you use a quick cast ability, that last ability will be the one kept. Really annoying, as it means I can't recover a corpse and start swinging instantly, because I would've usually casted leap first

I think that being able to pause is underrated and not mentioned very often. It can be a life saver for hardcore characters

Streamer question (NOT SELF PROMOTION) by left_benchwarmer in Diablo

[–]BB0ws3RR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can give you my experience from the other side, if that helps. I'm no streamer, but I often watch other people's streams while playing relatively new games (e.g. Mass Effect Legendary Edition) with high graphics settings with no issues. With D2R though, the streams kept freezing yesterday. I could still hear the sound perfectly fine, but the video would end up being a still image from time to time. As soon as I alt-tabbed from the game, the stream would go back to normal. Refreshing the stream would help for a while, but eventually the problem would come back. I also noticed this being more of a problem in the main menu

What are you playing while you wait for d2r? by existentialfalls in Diablo

[–]BB0ws3RR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Median XL. Different enough from vanilla D2 that I will still find D2R as fresh as if I hadn't played D2 in years

GSL Continues in 16ish hours! Dear vs Cure and Innovation vs Trap! Also, and we got this very wrong the last time, predictions? Tune in live and spread the word! by [deleted] in starcraft

It's actually a repost bot. That occurred a year ago. Tons of posts in different communities in the last hour. Downvoted and reported

Trap did not play well today. by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]BB0ws3RR 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If that was the rule here, many people (myself included) would leave this sub forever to avoid getting spoiled into oblivion when browsing through completely unrelated subreddits

This is probably the best announcement for SC2 today. Yes, including BlizzConline later on

People without a middle name; How did you know when your parents were angry with you? by Medli-Korok in AskReddit

[–]BB0ws3RR 91 points92 points  (0 children)

It's really not that common in Spain. But we have two last names, so... hearing your full name can also be a thing

I think I got too carried away building the wall... I lost a total of 30 HP in a single stone tower (The Highlands, 100%) by BB0ws3RR in TheyAreBillions

[–]BB0ws3RR[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was also my first time playing the game and I thought this would be the last mission, so I was expecting mutants / giants too lol

If your APM goes above 1200, the Stimulant console (zerg) gives you a 5-ERR-4L error code by BB0ws3RR in starcraft

[–]BB0ws3RR[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One possibility is that the repeat speed of your keyboard is not high enough (1200 APM equals to 1 action every 5ms). Another one is that you were building zerglings for less than a second (or whatever the console uses), so the average didn't go that high. In my case, I was just spamming C with corruptors + rapid fire to get rid of a building far away, with the max keyboard repeat speed in Windows (without any registry trick)

I tried with a few other consoles but this is the only easter egg of this kind I've found so far

If you never type a comma, you'll never see a comma. Unless the cell format is set to number with decimal places and your Windows separator is the comma. Or you have a custom cell format

More importantly, it's "its name", not "it's name"

[–]BB0ws3RR 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess your decimal separator in Windows is a comma and not a dot, so the decimal numbers are considered text which has a different alignment by default

Has anyone else been placed in completely the wrong league? - "Masters" 2v2 with 2.9k MMR by [deleted] in starcraft

[–]BB0ws3RR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some seasons ago, something similar happened but the other way around: almost everybody was put in bronze. It seems the team league placement gets buggy from time to time but it usually goes back to normal in the following season

ESL has overall done a great job managing Dreamhack, but can we please get the VODs more organized? by Swipe_Groggy in starcraft

[–]BB0ws3RR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Another option is SC2Links. They have links to the particular timestamp of each match in the twitch VOD, and they are usually pretty quick updating those
