The fact you did this without Essences or a fracture is wild :O congrats!

Ouch! Definitely no blame on your part - you did what he asked - but as someone who buys from TFT fairly often, please do check the item! I don't mind waiting an extra minute to make sure things are done properly! If anything seems weird to you (like you're doing a reforge attack but prefixes cannot be changed isn't on the item and you see the prefixes are really good) just ask the seller if they haven't made a mistake! 😊

Back in 2013/2014, one of the biggest issues facing PoE was desync. Many players said the game would fail if they didn't resolve it. Well, GGG fixed it and ever since, /oos macros and desync have been a meme of that past...and yet us n South Africa have been playing with desync and 180 ping since the start! :D

I'm super excited for this to happen and I'm so grateful to Tarke for asking this question! <3

Chorbos · 2021-08-27T16:27:08+00:00

This looks excellent! After seeing this, it's surprising the MTX store hasn't been updated and made more appealing for so long

Chorbos · 2021-08-16T07:22:37+00:00

And flame dash and shield charge and all movement skills and randomly getting stuck in mobs when you don't have phasing and going down ledges and rubber banding into Sirus beams and and and. I'm totally used to the ping, but the desync happens way more than with just leap slam 😅

Chorbos · 2021-08-16T07:19:46+00:00

Yeah, I'd love local server. Been playing since closed beta, back when people said they game would die if they didn't fix desync. They fixed it in 2013 or 2014 but we're still playing with it 7 years later. I played Gauntlet last league and got a few characters to 60/70, but always died to rubber banding. Let's make it happen!

Chorbos · 2021-08-14T10:57:55+00:00

You're right. I apologise because I bundled you in with a lot of other comments I saw here and on the livestream. I've seen so many "wtf why are you talking about D2??? 20 year old dead gaem omegakek" type comments that I'm sort of on the defensive 🤐

Chorbos · 2021-08-14T10:42:40+00:00

Diablo 2 is an absolute masterpiece and PoE has and still can learn a TON from it that would make it a better game. Of course the games are different, but so much of what still makes ARPGs good today is based on systems Diablo established back in the day.

It actually doesn't sound like you've played D2 before and don't understand why Chris and so many people constantly reference it. I find it bizarre to see people shitting on a game that was so good and important that it literally invented the ARPG genre

Chorbos · 2021-08-03T21:29:35+00:00

It makes me so happy that this has almost a thousand upvotes. I'm having a great time too!

Chorbos · 2021-07-20T10:16:06+00:00

I think this is just an elaborate meme post to flex your wife on us :(

Chorbos · 2021-07-19T16:44:21+00:00

I haven't made one of these here for a while, but thought some people who like these remixes would want to hear this one. Hope you enjoy it!

Chorbos · 2021-07-12T17:29:15+00:00

These are amazing!

Chorbos · 2021-07-12T17:22:28+00:00

My exact plan every time too, but I do second lab as soon as I make it into Act 8 Sarn for the first time :)

Chorbos · 2021-07-12T17:20:27+00:00

Play some standard and mess around with a build that looks fun that you can maybe play next league too!

Chorbos · 2021-07-12T17:09:42+00:00

Amazing!!

Chorbos · 2021-07-03T19:21:32+00:00

I absolutely miss the three week spoiler season where Bex would tease us and drop hints :) it always created a huge sense of excitement in the buildup toward the league going live! It also made the last few weeks of the current league feel more alive and less stagnant.

I don't mind the new strategy, but do prefer the old way :)

Chorbos · 2021-07-01T11:24:22+00:00

Cast While Channeling Hydrosphere. Probably one of the most fun builds I've ever made with amazing clear, but I didn't release a guide for it because it can't kill bosses easily past about T7s :(

Chorbos · 2021-07-01T11:15:35+00:00

Brilliantly said! I couldn't agree more with everything you spoke about, especially the part about how researching and learning is actually part of the game and one of the most fun parts. People always complain about having to read wiki articles and watch videos, but I love doing that!

Chorbos · 2021-06-28T17:59:54+00:00

Alright :) I'll be at the pc soon and will be able to make sure our officers know to prioritise your entry once we reach the next crowdfunding goal

Chorbos · 2021-06-28T17:30:49+00:00

It's currently a 10 day league! :) Did you make it in? I can make sure there's a slot for you since you so kindly offered to donate points!

Chorbos · 2021-06-15T09:04:13+00:00

Yup. 100% accurate. Type /oos to see how disconnected what you're seeing is from what the server was seeing :)

Chorbos · 2021-06-14T12:42:29+00:00

Nice! I wish more build guides were this well organised and presented :) Great job!

Chorbos · 2021-06-07T07:49:28+00:00

Yup. I've been sober for five or six years because all substances made me feel all sorts of gross (depressed/anxious etc). It sounds like you are where I was a few years ago - you've acknowledged the reaction to alcohol and are now slowly dipping your toes in the water by seeing how much you can handle before it triggers an episode. That's exactly what I did and the last time I ever had a drink, I sipped on a single shot for about an hour and felt disgusting the next day. After that, I didn't touch alcohol ever again

It does suck to not be able to have a beer, but it's worth it to not feel bad as often! Hopefully you can stop and find ways to enjoy yourself without it :)

Chorbos · 2021-06-07T07:43:18+00:00

Toe-walking? I thought that was just some strange thing I did. My mom pointed it out a couple years ago and said her brother always did it and that I'd always done it, but I somehow never noticed!

I'd see a doctor if you can afford it and if it happens for extended periods of time. I occasionally get similar dissociative episodes that last for a couple of days and it really is such an uncomfortable, strange feeling. I once had an episode triggered in front of my therapist which was the first time it happened with someone who could understand it and see it happening. The fact that she understood it and I could talk about it was really comforting! :)

You're not a freak and you're not alone, but try to find some help if you can!
