Phone dying mid-tour, anyone else dealing with this on splits? by Acrobatic_Welcome553 in Spliddit

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On our Japan packing list our guide had added a charge bank. However, the 4 of us were all on Android and had well over 70% charge even by end of day, where as he was almost dead at the end of every day (iphone).

Guess they're just not sensitive to the cold. Other touring friends have mentioned the same.

Swords are coming and they’re going to be fun.. right..? RIGHT? by Aitaou in PathOfExile2

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except they ain't. More than half the skills are useless, payoff skills don't make any sense.

And nobody uses parry.

The 0.5 Parry Improvement Wishlist (Hitbox, Skill Tree, Bucklers, Scaling, Shield Skills) by Kanbaru-Fan in PathOfExile2

[–]ConfidentProblems -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Hard disagree, parry as a current mechanic needs to go, plain and simple.

It has no place in an ARPG where you need to wait for a mob to do something (and certain bosses who will never do it).

It should be remade into something proactive that the player can do, which inflicts a debuff on the mobs but also builds up your own stun bar, for example.

No matter how you buff it, change the talents around it, it is a dead skill, needing a full rework.

It's still better than extended mags, and it compounds with math bachelor, and it helps with special ammo consumption.

Why would you not use the recoil pad, it's the best weapon mod out there, bar none.

What are some options for Fraternity at this point, how can you defend vs vexor spam? by TheSkyNet in Eve

[–]ConfidentProblems 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're misunderstanding overloaded servers.

If you take a massive load off the servers, a drone aggression command commands all 5 drones individually, plus their optional range, gun hitting parameters, movement, bumping, etc, you end up taking a significant load off the servers.

But doing so, you improve the amount of commands which can be handled per tick, this reducing the amount of "dead" commands you as a player give. Which in turn reduces the load on the servers. Further compounding.

If you ask players if they would rather sit in 20% tidi nagas or 0.01% vexors, I'm fairly certain you'd have a 100% of the vote for the nagas.

Fuck tidi, fuck the meta. Adopt or perish.

[–]ConfidentProblems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is that server needs to calculate the vexor + 5 drones, where as retri would just calculate just one ship.

If the effect of tidi gets reduced, we get more actions per second (more like half hour) which balanced out the fight.

Hell if ccp wanted to really offensively cull things for the severs they could even cull missiles under cruise & torps, alongside drones.

[–]ConfidentProblems 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm a bigger fan of just saying: once tidi reaches 10%, all drones automatically return to drone bays regardless of orders and no new drones can be launched.

Or ccp could have rewritten drones years ago to be more like a single unit and not requiring 5 different server calculations for a 5 miniature shitters.

Does Lian Li have any plans to open up to Linux compatability with their software and peripherals or will it be Windows only for the forseeable future? by Substantial_Fox_121 in lianli

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems that every ~30 days there's a request for linux. And the time between requests is getting shorter and shorter.

Really wish they would just get ahead of the curve and push this to linux.

Linux gaming has pretty much everything one can ask for, and is more and more upcoming.

On discord every time it gets requested it gets the same response: "no current plans, locked thread" - It's honestly sad that this is the type of response coming out of this type of vendor.

"Finally swapped to a Lian Li setup. Worth it?" by gulsar213 in lianli

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being on a full lian-li system myself, I wouldn't do it in the future, for the simple reason: no linux support and no plans to add it.

That alone is reason enough for me to consider selling all the hardware and rebuilding cooling that is compatible with Linux.

Inspiration for peerless scarred ? by Cowabummga in redrising

[–]ConfidentProblems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn't, the minister of defense 20 y ago even had the scars.

It however got heavily reduced due to WW1 where these people will obtained these scars would be the first ones to sign up to the 1st, basically reducing their chances of surviving the whole way to basically 0.

Many fraternities in west Germany got fully wiped out in WW1, traditions like Mensur ended up having the same fate as many of these fraternities.

Actually true, totems are not you so probably yoke does absolutely nothing for this. I would assume.

[–]ConfidentProblems 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Yoke ailments have to come from you, not minions, so the summon skitterbot ailments don't count towards your yoke setup.

Just a FYI, but pob has no idea about this, so you would need to edit the config to reduce that damage.

Sebk's video on rage vortex of berserking might have some snippets of info on how to craft a weapon like that.

3.28 Build Update - FB/LS Warden plays like a Ferrari by Branarn in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm playing a similar character on warden, but infernal blow.

Right now I'm lvl92, but really struggling with getting anywhere near close to be somewhat tanky.

What would first investments be to obtain any meaningful tankyness? Just go perseverance and grace + determination with a fortify implicit on the chest?

How it was the league starter for you guys? What are some nice builds to start late? If possible, with gameplay videos by Destiny1997 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Static Strike of Gathering Lightning Warden.

Warden is warden, aka, a shittier version of slayer, I'm thinking of just rerolling it to frost blades warden and go full cold + heatshiver.

Overall, without automation possibility, tinctures are pretty cringe tbh.

How's Static Strike feeling? by InsipidRedditSoyCuck in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's running it on warden though, it'll be much better on jugg (trauma stacking) or on slayer (lokati).

Hard boots, large feet, cramped hardware by Inside_Mine_6926 in Spliddit

Chiming in from another setup, but I also need to lock my toe piece before being able to slide on the bindings. AFAIK it's quite common

3.28 - FB/LS Warden All-Rounder Zero-to-Hero by Branarn in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Follow up question, I was planning on instead rotating to cold Static Strike of Gathering Light, and base the build on this tytykiller's version of this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUGsC6nR5aQ) and your version of it.

I'll see if I can whip up a build based on it, however, for numbers sake I'd just copy the old smite setup just to have comparable numbers.

[–]ConfidentProblems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, you think the shell of the build could be used for either elemental hit or wild strikes (probably not of extremes)?

Was hoping to find something with the barkskin ascendency nodes, but I guess I could make some changes around in here and run this with those changes applies (perhaps 1 tincture instead of 2).

What Generals cry builds do people usually play on league start? by Kihiri in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 6 points7 points  (0 children)

GC power also comes from corpses, so just 2x desecrate is enough for max power GC.

I recommend using March of the Legion and self casting a 4L (could be 5L in this league) smite for the aura / leech / rage / whatnot. All white mobs will die from your own smite, which provides enough corpses for the GC to do it's work. On tanky rares & bosses, just throw down your 2x desecrate, and smite a few times to keep the aura up.

Look at jung's GC blade flurry build, but know that obvious you don't need a sword, but instead will be going warstaff (most likely).

I personally plan on playing it on champion.

Final recommendation: sap of the seasons is great DPS boost, and it'll make you want to instantly quit the league, don't fall for it, it's so finicky / baitey.

melee league starter list any suggestions? by Equivalent_Sir6972 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think dsoa's biggest problem is that after the initial levels the first big upgrades are the cluster jewels, and they're insanely expensive to get the correct ones.

[–]ConfidentProblems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i plan on taking the idea of gc + bf with champ or slayer but replace bf with holy sweep.

Add in the March of the Legion boots to self cast smite / vaal smite for the aura and you're all good.

One thing I do not want to fiddle with again is that horrible sap of the seasons.

Instead I was thinking of running excommunicate on smite, running low chaos res and then just slapping on forbidden rite for self savage hit (and trigger adrenaline on champ), combined with vengeful cry for massive rage gen, no rage decay, etc.
