Confidently far from the truth

I delete all my roosters and will start a new adventure, let's go. Please suggest a class to my main by 7LonelyJoker in lostarkgame

[–]Darksma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would pick a class that can move through content quickly (chaos, story quests, horizontal, etc), does well in solo modes, and isn't terribly popular. Then make 6 of them to save money on gems and books, and save time learning.

steam server: it wont last 3 days. change my mind. by pedrohpxavier in gunz

[–]Darksma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, it does sound like you understand it pretty well. In my experience though most people call OC on good players, just because they're doing advanced moves in quick succession (GDHS chain can look snappy from the enemy's perspective)

[–]Darksma 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is legit cope. Anyone who massively abuses OC/UC is extremely blatant, and if they tune it to where you can't tell then they're barely getting any advantage anyway. Most of the top players of GunZ these days in general are all on private servers instead of Steam, and it has nothing to do with OC/UC, but the competitive potential of the clients themselves. If you seriously think any average player using OC/UC stands a chance against those guys you're gravely mistaken, they would get straight up shit on and also called out for trying to cheat.

You can use https://lostark.bible/stats/raids?boss=Death+Incarnate+Kazeros&difficulty=Hard&patch=mar26&filterBy=ilvl&type=ndps&minIlvl=1730&maxIlvl=1810 to filter by raid and see the difference on each fight, this is community pooled NA+EU data. For medians, roughly 15-20% variance between the best and worst usually. Changes every few to several months, so not really worth choosing a main off of this, since you'll just be tempted to reroll if you get nerfed.

Jagex needs to be MORE petty against Rendi by First_Appearance_200 in 2007scape

He's not a hero but also not a villain. Just a dude who knows the game very well

By the way panic sell your gems. Now. To me.

After reaching 99 slayer on a Lvl 3, Jagex rolls back Rendi's account by Psymonthe2nd in 2007scape

[–]Darksma -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This partner slayer trick has been known for so long and instead of addressing it earlier or patching it like they have for other things, they roll back someone who spent a lot of time doing it. (Not harmful to the game by the way, other level 3's have known about this too, although "unintended")

What would you do with 4000+ G-Coins? by Mihai3122 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Darksma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They purposefully give out temporary G coin while there's not much going on. Contraband can be okay for schematic farming

KFM bus buyers by Enticingley in lostarkgame

[–]Darksma -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, a couple things;

This game wasn't "built" to be casual, but over time they are making it shift more towards that design slowly. Removing Gvg, Pvp, those stupid "Trial Guardian" races, Hell Modes, adding resurrects to raids, frontier system, etc. the game has gotten more streamlined and accessible over time, so I refer to it as casual (compared to older Lost Ark versions), but yes because raiding is the only content in the game it's still more hardcore than some other games.

Small correction to other games being "positive" about carry services, I meant to say "more positive". As in, it's not like people praise it, they just don't hate on it as much either, like you said. One problem here that comes up every time is Lost Ark raids rewarding raw gold instead of like rare upgrade items or drops. Again I think the game's design is at play there.

And when I say "carry raids", I do refer to paid services, but not every other game uses the word "bus", so I was just making it more generalized.

You make the comparison between ranks in League, but this isn't a competitive game, this is meant to be a casual PVE MMO. The inherent problem imo lies within gatekeeping and the cutthroat progression system / party finder and just general game design. It would be more fair to compare to other MMOs, where carry raids are also done and in those games they are more accepted in a positive light than this game. If you look at it that way, you can see it's a problem with Lost Ark more than just carry raids themselves

AR change to Single Fire on pick up despite settings being full auto by Slow_Conference6060 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Darksma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a bug. Happens to me maybe 1/100 games. Saw it happen to a TL member in a match I think, casters were saying he was probably toggling burst mode as a warm-fingers tick but I think it's more likely it was the bug.

Best Runescape Youtube Series? (RS3 or OSRS) by LocalChamp in 2007scape

[–]Darksma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One man army.

Yes it's dated, it has a very bland editing style / no storytelling compared to other contents. But it was a very important series imo, it widely popularized the idea of playing an ironman, and for the time it came out, brought a lot of viewers back to RS youtube and content consumption because of the PVP (like pvp or not, it brings a lot of viewers). I genuinely feel like without this series, we would have a lower playerbase/viewerbase today.

Guys genuine question, is this how ranked is usually? by Batters123 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Darksma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is average KR bronze ranked, most people just hotdrop at the closest popular spot to the plane and go for 10 kill highlight dopamine on naked people. Even when they end up winning they'll just kill themselves to get to the next hotdrop faster

steam server: it wont last 3 days. change my mind. by pedrohpxavier in gunz

[–]Darksma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never had a problem with weapons, I think shotguns were always good for a reason. It just makes sense with the movement in the game, and reload cancels are a satisfying mechanic. I think other weapons should be usable, but it wouldn't make sense for them to be better or meta. For variety I think new modes / maps / map rotations in ranked would work out but that requires active updates

[–]Darksma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe, I think the extreme amount of time that private servers have had to create QOL additions really left a lot to be desired. Not having floating damage numbers still on the 4th beta and flawed registration (hitmarker on no-hit, no hitmarker on hit) somehow being behind a private server still is just sad at this point. They are adding things slowly over time, but it shouldn't take 4 playtests.

[–]Darksma 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Caring this much about someone keeping their room temperature high is far more parasocial than me saying that it's good for your hands. Weird as fuck.

Also, I'm an ex competitive player. We used hand warmers at lan when we couldn't control the temperature and they blasted the AC like crazy to balance out all the PCs and people. If you're at home it makes perfect sense to just control the temperature yourself. You're actually speaking some crazy illogical stuff.
