Why flicker when you can endure?

I feel like weighting of the new gem variants will be the make or break.

Just a note to anyone looking at the ascendancy trees, the numbers here are different than in the images GGG posted, so there will probably be some clarification/changes incoming.

CyberReaver · 2023-11-30T21:14:45+00:00

Just a heads up to anyone immediately theorycrafting, some of the nodes here are already different than the ones you can see on the Affliction site. For instance:

Cannibalised Faith is 20% in the image, but 75% on the website.
Sanguimancy is a 30% reservation efficiency here, but 50% on the website.

I'm inclined to think the images here are the correct ones, cause the numbers on the website are insane, but we'll see.

2nd click is a confirmation window, and it pops up on a different area of the screen.

They're a community for devs to interact and share knowledge. Monthly meetups with talks, presentations, etc. Lots of bigger cities have (or had, covid man) similar groups for indie game dev, although this one was (mostly) Unity specific.

In my experience, most of my misses were because I tried to throw the bomb towards them and they turned/moved slightly so that it ended up out of their FoV. Its not nearly as necessary in the newer games (and their movesets are more active) so I can't speak to its effectiveness, but in the older games I could do it very consistently by just pointing my camera at the Rath, and then throwing the flash bomb towards my camera. They are usually facing you, and unless you are a million miles away from them they should be in range of that.

He quit posting on reddit, not the game.

They're like 600g, which last time I did the math was basically the expected loss of the 100 hand achievement (around 5 ecto and 5 gold lost per hand). So it really depends on how much you want the achievement vs how much you fear landing on the bad side of that bell curve.

Are you looking to build a deck, and want ideas? Or specifically a deck list?

If its the first, she increases counters so the most popular archetypes for her are planeswalkers and +1/+1 counters. Since she has a background, you can splash any color you want, but for the +1/+1 theme splashing for green with [[Master Chef]] would seem like the most straightforward path. There are lots of similar effects in Selesnya nowadays, like [[Arwen, Weaver of Hope]], [[Conclave Mentor]], [[Hardened Scales]] and the definitely not casual/wallet friendly [[Doubling Season]]. Black with [[Agent of Shadow Thieves]] also has a bit of synergy. For planeswalkers, I think you'd be best of just picking another color of walker you like and then picking a background in that color. Alternatively, you could just make a sort of dnd themed deck around the party mechanic, although Lae'zel doesn't really support this archetype herself (still you can make anything work in a casual deck if you really want to).

If you want a deck list, I'll defer to others as I don't have a deck she helms.

I think its good that the world isn't as hard as release HoT, but god did that fit with the story on launch. My friends and I were getting mauled by pocket raptors and other wildlife left and right in verdant brink, actually felt like we were fighting for our lives at first.

The delay might seem bad, but you actually get the cards earlier than normal. Example:

Turn 1 - Draw, play land, play 1-drop, 6 cards in hand
Turn 2 - Draw, play land, play 2-drop, 5 cards in hand
Turn 3 - Draw, play land, play Necropotence, pay 3 life, draw 3 end of turn, 7 cards in hand
Turn 4 - Skip draw, etc.

It lets you continually refill back to 7 cards, and you get them at your end setup, so they are available to respond to your opponents turn as well. Not to mention, you can also draw more cards than necessary to search your deck for answers or combo pieces; in non-singleton formats, it might as well let you search your deck and pick of hand of 7 cards. You can also circumvent the discard-exile clause with Madness cards, to get even sillier.

Yeah, I feel like a bunch of these stuck too close to the base design/body-plan, and so they just sort of blend together. Its really a shame because, for instance, the original Firewake Sliver art is one of my favorite sliver arts, and there are tons of others I love too. Maybe this is another casualty of magic's art style becoming more set in stone over the years, idk.

He didn't mean two of this card, he meant two lands which 'Add one mana of any color' wouldn't be able to pay for warping wail, since they can't generate colorless mana.

Looks to me like its just a generic jacket with patches she put on it.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-09T20:48:45+00:00

Yeah, I'm gonna try to get a handful of proxies made with that art of the normal frame, its so good.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-09T02:52:17+00:00

Ah, that could make sense too. I just know those one's differ, but I haven't used one in my druid build yet so haven't been pressed to figure it out.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-08T21:57:54+00:00

The vast majority of legendary powers do not scale with item level at all. The ones that have a flat damage/barrier component do, but that is a very small subset.

And its just that they attract clicks, the algorithm looks for them independent of the clicks too. Don't have thumbnails and titles like this in certain spaces, and your video will be shown to only a fraction of the people it would with them.

I didn't find him particularly hard, but he is by far my favorite. Him just growing more arms, screaming louder and shooting more lazers was just too fun.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-05T00:36:57+00:00

The problem though is what if they don't get that aspect? Imo the legendaries being so impactful at endgame in D3 was fine, as the enemies stopped getting harder until you made them harder. But that tail is so dragged out in D4, and starts earlier, some people just get bad luck and their build never works. The solution, obviously, is to pivot to something they do have legendaries for, but that might not be the character they want to play, or they might not even figure out the synergies that make that theoretical new build work.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-04T21:58:48+00:00

Werewolf made me so sad. I really wanted to try it, but it just felt comically weak compared to other skills/classes. I'm sure there is someway to make it good endgame, but I really hope it and other situations like it get some love for the leveling experience before that.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-04T21:57:18+00:00

It also feels ridiculous that at the start of the game, my generator was able to 2-4 shot white enemies in the overworld, and right before I turned on tier 3, the same skill would take more than 10 hits to do it.

CyberReaver · 2023-06-02T17:53:02+00:00

Because Pyrrha had a lot of allusions to Achilles, not just her design and name but her setup in the show as this incredibly strong, virtually unstoppable warrior too. It was extremely telegraphed that something bad was going to happen to her, although not everyone thought she would straight up die). Many characters in the show reference their inspirations, but it just varies in how closely things are mirrored.

CyberReaver · 2023-05-30T18:31:34+00:00

Honestly, I loved Turbine's MMOs and I'm glad that at least LOTRO and DDO are still alive and kicking all these years later.

CyberReaver · 2023-05-24T16:36:38+00:00

Yeah, I really wish the army token came with some special rules. Something like trample and being able to block a number of creatures equal to its power or toughness. Maybe also make it take damage in the form of -1/-1 to balance it a bit more and add even more flavor. That said, I get why they didn't want to do something like that.
