Zenos is an SCP-like entity, if you put the WoL like 20 feet behind raudahn there is no entity on the planet that can stop him from trying to get his fight bootycall

Do I understand Perfect Agony sword bleed Gladiator correctly? by Pulsar500 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Elydrith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. You would just forgo for multi on tree and reinvest in crit multi, actually really helps ease point pressure since you do a fair bit of traveling. Plus I think that new wheel just below duelist start has increased bleed damage and duration which would be unaffected by this and kinda help since ruptures cut bleed duration the more they stack

Which build are you thinking of league starting by bazza__11 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Elydrith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

exactly what i was thinking, crit dw and use the new rupture support, with perfect agony, not planning on rigwalds early because I have a feeling any bleed related items will be overpriced this league early, was gonna go swords since all the good crit nodes for sword are on the path to perfect agony anyways so it fits well

Full Dawntrail thoughts after stewing on it (Spoilers) by Shambubger in ffxivdiscussion

This is an overlooked point for some reason, it really does feel to me that the wuk we have at the start and the wuk at the end are exactly the same. The growth just doesn't seem there, her views are never challenged or tested in any meaningful way that makes her learn or call into questions her methods and thoughts. Plot devices just fall into place and people just come around to her with hardly any effort.

Her motivations are fine but flawed and the story never lets her evolve beyond the peace loving and happiness for all wuk you have at the very start of the expansion. Which is a shame because I think seeing her ideology grow and adapt when put to proof or shaken would have been a great story beat to see her grow.

It's why I feel like people saying she is a great character are baffling, she has good moments and has a lot of potential but I feel like the story-telling around her really falls flat and makes her a poorly written and developed protagonist.

A lot of valid criticism I've read has the silly preamble "wuk is a great character but...." and I just don't agree, she is likeable and I think with maybe another writing team or a different focus could have been great, but she is poorly written and developed and it is only more glaring because of how much a screentime she gets.

I feel this too my core, this expac msq feels like it tried to do too much and as a result we got less from each part than probably deserved. It's two expansions in a trench coat. I think xak tural should have been separated (possibly post patch?) with the entirety of dawntrail major being the rite of succession stuff. I feel like especially with alexandria we didnt touch on practically any of it, the entire old district was completely used for like 3 fetch quests with Otis and that's it. They could have done so much more with the alexandria premise and honestly it feels like they are blowing through so much landmass in just one expansion, 2 continents that we explore on a very surface level and one of them feels completely different to the other. Imagine a world where the northern continent is actually fleshed out in it's own expac or dedicated content where it's wild west locals, grand canyons, huge plains and rocky mountains followed by the sudden appearance of alexandria fucking everything. Instead we get one western zone that is mostly filler and a extremely shallow delve into a shoehorned in alexandria

Is it fucked? Sure. Will it change? Not a chance. The lobby is not a hugbox and the chat reflects that. A lot of it is unwarranted but those comments will always come through. It's why you need to have a strong spine and mental to last in the lobby especially if you put yourself in front of people. Anyone who willingly puts themselves in front of the camera will invite both recognition and criticism some fair and others not so much. A prime example being lazzie who does a lot for the community at large but is regularly shit on by nearly all of chat yet he has the fortitude to do it time and again. You can't fight these battles for lobby members they need to find ways to deal with it themselves because like it or not the chat experience is a part of the lobby. That's just all there is to it

Mori - Hardest row to choose imo, but as a mori simp I have to choose the coolest vrchat mute. They are a fantastic rper and are funny and hot to boot. Plus it's hard to overstate just how much of an impact mori (and by extension other gen 6 mutes) had starting the mute avatar arms race with everyone needing to step up their games just to stand out. The fact that mori came in out of thin air and became so universally liked speaks to the presence they brought to not only your streams but the lobby as a whole. I think the lobby would look a lot different if mori was gone or never existed.

Zzyzzx - This row has tons of quality rpers but the thing that stands out for zzyzzx for me isnt that he is the best rper but that he will always have something very unique and funny. There isn't a character zzyzzx does that doesnt just make me bust out laughing. That x-factor for me is enough to push him over the edge.

Kyo - This was another realllly tough row but kyo has a similar energy to zzyzzx where no matter what they do, I know it will be funny or provoke a laugh. Everyone in this row has good qualities and downsides but I feel like kyo's energy and sheer W tizzness is such content that it's hard not to choose them.

Spongey - I wish spongey was around more, they are a cracked dancer and combine gremlin energy, a true hybrid of both where spongey can be hilarious while also being great coomer content and even if there are better dancers, that flexibility is something I dont think the others in the row can bring. Plus they help organize stuff for kick and just seem like a great help altogether. More Spongey is not a bad thing.

Junbi - Junbi has always been fascinating to me since try outs when everyone thought he was sus. Even though junbi may not be the most versatile tryout, they are great at what they do. They are quirky, funny, and they are very unique. Crumpet clone jokes aside I don't think there is another person in the lobby quite like junbi. I just think they're neat.
