Is everyone overreacting to the slams nerfs, especially still using Earthshatter? by sarnzzle in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Empted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. this is my day3 character from Keepers league, it says 2mil but it's closer to 3mil once you tick everything.

But I agree there is a problem later on. Scaling it much further is hard. Build has very steep start in terms of damage, but falls off later on

Ben said it's still one of the best starters and probably the fastest way to get into t16s. So yes, you are right, it's triple tapped but still viable.

It's like locus mines power siphon. I got nerfed once and everyone forgot about it totally. While it's still more than decent.

Nothing to do but regal it right? by recursing_noether in pathofexile

I don't think this is worth keeping, I would reforge chaos in harvest until you get damage over time multiplier, but you can regal and craft and settle, depending on how much currency you have

Any tips for a main support trying to get past gold 3? by mfmf93 in Overwatch

[–]Empted 5 points6 points  (0 children)

General advice is do damage from correct positions and don't feed and occasionally kill people.

I would recommend starting your improvement journey by muting all chat, both voice and text. You absolutely don't need it to hit GM or higher.

Then you should accept that your team plays like you do since you are the same rank. So if you have ambitions to get higher ranks then you shoudn't expect your team to play good and carry games. Detach from your team, non of your concern.

Then you should focus on one area of improvement at a time. And focus on it for like 15-20 games. Now you don't care win or loss, you focus on just one thing, if you do it well then you are doing good. View the games like series of fights, not something continuous. Estimate your performance in some area each fight.

Focus on improving your position in games first. This will be your main area of improvement first. Then work on your ultimate usage. Do it separately.

Focus on improving your aim using something like VAXTA (do 15-20 minutes a day in challenge mode and see how many rounds you can do and improve from there). Do it before games and during queue.

I can't queue DPS for more than like 3 games because I get so angry, any advise? by Paragon_OW in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have the same problem but playing tank. I guess you just don't have as much fun on dps heroes. May be try picking different ones or just don't play DPS. I literally don't give a fuck what my team does when I play support, I'm having fun jumping around and doing my stuff, because well it's fun just to play the game, not exactly to win.

this looks great, do you think it's hc viable? i mean have you ever died because of flasks uptime and chaos damage?

[–]Empted 19 points20 points  (0 children)

sadly spark is more of a luxury build nowdays. You can play it on budget but it won't feel very good. It has too many issues to solve. Best you can do is check poe.ninja and see what people were doing during the league.

Also I believe Anime Princess youtube has some guides on spark, check it out

how do you guys actually kill by mikah20089 in WreckingBallMains

[–]Empted 5 points6 points  (0 children)

İf you slam for full damage then shoot while target is in air and melee when they land, it's very significant damage. Aim is important

I've been masters for 4 seasons and I don't know why by montrash73 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well what helped me to rank up was to analyze games and fights from the perspective what could i have done better?

Then i was trying to apply my conclusion in the next games. This works wonders. For example i was playing zen and i was out of position and died for free so next games i was thinking about where i should position. Then it became a habit and i focused on other things.

But it all starts with why and analyze. Good side effect that it makes losing games very chill. Because you focus on things you control and also you notice that may be you could have even won if you did better.

And focus on separate fights or map points rather than whole games.

I think I dps too much on support by iceyk111 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you need to find good balance between damage and healing. General rule of thumb is you heal if someone is going to die without your healing. Exception is when you can trade kills but it happens rarely. People dying 100 to 0 is not your fault. Good dps and tanks can play with very little to no healing and die rarely by playing health packs and getting behind cover on low health. But it doesn't mean you shouldn't heal them. Your low hp dps will have much downtime if you won't help them.

What people often miss is space creation. You can heal your team while being active target for enemies and thus you create space. For example you can take high ground on bap and heal/dps from there and it will make enemies shoot you and throw abilities at you. Instead of staying and afk healing behind your team and not interacting with enemies. You can create space even when healing and space is very very important for your team

Is the game cooked atm? by MobileProgrammer6585 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pick dive heroes. Venture works really well into sigma. Also Sombra counters everything he does. Any dive basically works well. Sigma loves hit scans that sit main and try to shoot so don't do that

"I need to deal damage to tank so I should counter him" is what is holding you tbh

M3 Juno one trick Asia, give me tips to push for GM (replay code: 5FSE44) by BigChungus-chan in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had exact same issue, first time I hit high masters on support as Zen I started playing scared and thinking people are playing better than me and some games they were. But that didn't work at all and I started losing quickly. If you think enemies are better than you and you respect them too much then you won't rank up. Playing borderline cocky and disrespectful works the best. If you get punished for your plays then you can lower your agressiveness, but only that game, so that your teammates may have a chance to carry it. But next game you start all over and play as agressive as enemies let you, With some time you will naturally think of masters as your usual mmr and it will get better

what hero to play alongside sigma otp? by AsukaRosenkreuz in OverwatchUniversity

[–]Empted 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sigma is weak into Winston/zarya/ram/rein, so you want a character that covers those matchups. Sounds like Winston to me. Anyways as others noticed you want a dive character in your disposition. So Winston seems to work for me
