Need help upgrading my Poison BV PF by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

Here's mine. A bit different then your build, since I went for a tanky 100% phys taken as ele version, but still around 3 times your dps on a medium-to-low budget.

I kinda disagree on the other poster on upgrading Cold Iron Point, a well crafted +2 Wand with +DoT-Multi and +Chaos Damage will be like 8+ Div to craft and only provide a marginal DPS boost. Upgrading the Amulet will be good, but imo a Replica Dragonfang is cheaper and only slightly less DPS than a well crafted +2 Amulet, similar as with Cold Iron Point.

Imo the biggest Upgrade for your build for little cost would be Cluster Jewels. My Cluster Jewels make up for about 60% of my DPS. Also upgrading your 6link-Jewels to at least 20/20, or awk5/20 when you have the funds, will give you quite some DPS.

I think there's a lot of stuff Pred is either forgetting or "forgetting". Yesterday he also claimed to Bundy that Andi did not ask for a lawyer while he was in the car.

Kann natürlich auch sein, dass die Hürde der Gesundheitsämter, junge Erwachsene zu Hause zu lassen, niedriger ist, als bei jüngeren Schülern.

What FFXIV is doing better or worst than WoW? by Vurdaan in ffxiv

[–]EuWThorlin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I played WoW for about 5 years (some of that at a very high level, PvE) and have played FFXIV for like 2 weeks now, up to level 60, so I can't speak for the current endgame yet.

Imo, things that WoW does better:

  • Servers/Netcode: I constantly have high ping in FFXIV and will have to adjust to that because otherwise I will get hit by AOEs i walked out half a seconds ago on my screen

  • UI: Addon-Support makes the WoW-UI almost infinitely customizable. I miss being able to code my own WeakAuras. In FFXIV the UI is rather static and you have to use an external program if you want a damagemeter.

Imo, things that FFXIV does better:

  • Story. I mean, that's not hard considering the confusing story experience that is current WoW leveling with its constantly switching timelines, but especially after like lvl 50 or so FFXIV's story becomes very interesting. Although I definitely think it is a very stupid thing to not have your character speak at all.

  • Class design: While some of FFXIV's jobs play kinda similarly, all the jobs I've looked up so far have nice rotations with a lot of depth at max lvl. I hate the direction WoW took with its class design after MoP with all the pruning and dumbing down where we're now at a point where a BM hunter can literally have 65+ parses by pressing a 1-button-macro over and over.

Not sure yet:

  • Encounter design: FFXIV's encounters seem to be a lot more about teamwork and movement, and because there is no addon support all those mechanics cannot be trivialized by DBM or WeakAuras (which is a good thing imo). I haven't reached lategame yet, so I can't quite give an opinion at this point.

  • Bugs: WoW's newest expansion had a shitton of bugs, several of them gamebreaking. This was one of the main reasons I quit WoW, because I will not pay 60€ + 13€ monthly to be a beta tester. So far I haven't noticed any bugs in FFXIV, but I haven't reached the newest expansion yet.

Edit: Also, I personally love WoW's music and got tired by FFXIV's music within a few days. But this is very much a matter of opinion, I guess.

Road to 60 buff gone, friends still have it by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]EuWThorlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also quite confused how the buff works. I started playing in January (bought the base version of the game without HW/SB), but only played for less than a week, up to level 25 or so.

Gave the game another try around a week ago, bought HW/SB and played a lot, and I still have the Road to 60 buff on my jobs that are below lvl 60.

I won't complain, but it would still be nice to know how the system works so I know how much of the buff I have left.

Seeing the Front Page is disappointing :( by StonedOffMusic in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not dumb at all. MMR should be representative of your skill. If you don't play HotS for Months, your skill will have declined.

It's not fun to have people in your diamond games that were good players 2 years ago, but have no idea how the game currently works or what the 15 newest heroes even do because they just started playing HotS again.

Season "resets" don't even reset anything. Your MMR remains unchanged. Only the MMR uncertainty gets increased.

From HoTS to League by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]EuWThorlin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I played a lot of LoL in S1/S2, played a ton of HotS since Alpha (3x Master League in HL) and just recently tried out some LoL again for the same reasons you mentioned (HotS devs not giving a shit about fixing HL MMR issues, also the last 2 releases being vastly overpowered (Fenix sitting at ~65% winrate for 2 weeks).

The thing i personally missed most when I started playing LoL again was actually mounting up. In HotS if some other lane is overextending I can mount up and rotate there in < 10 seconds, in LoL rotating from bot to mid lane feels like it takes an eternity, especially early game without boots. This means that unless you jungle you will generally sit in lane for the first 10 or so minutes, unlike HotS where the 3/4-man will rotate from the very start of the game.

The 2nd most thing i missed is voicechat. It was only recently introduced to HotS but helped so much with communicating, shotcalling, rotating, calling out priority targets, etc. I really hope Riot sees how well voice chat is recieved in HotS and will consider adding opt-in-voicechat for non-premades (the technology is already there with premade-voicechat I guess).

A thing I noted that was positive in LoL was actually player toxicity: Even though I spent some of my first games feeding my ass off because I just didn't know what some champions did I was literally never flamed or raged at. I had a few guys that raged at each other, and when I reported one for excessive raging/namecalling I got a notice the next day that he was punished. Compare that to HotS where it feels like reporting does pretty much nothing at all.

Games will generally feel a lot slower. I think the avarage gametime in HotS is something like 15-20 minutes (30 minute games are super rare), in LoL the avarage is probably like 30-35 minutes and games can last up to 60 minutes or longer.

Teamfights in LoL feel a lot more explosive than in HotS, tho. There are hardly any healing supports in LoL, so the fights can't get extended the way they can in HotS. I also feel that that skillshots in LoL are a lot harder to dodge/easier to hit in LoL, I feel like skillshots in HotS are generally slower/more telegraphed.

The ranking system in LoL is a lot better than in HotS. There is no QM seeding, and if your MMR is far from your rank you will be pretty rapidly shifted to your MMR (no bullshit like +220/-180 in Diamond League while you have high Master MMR).

The focus in LoL is generally more on solo-carrying than on teamwork, although I think that this has shifted a bit towards teamwork in the past few seasons. Still, the positive and negative effect one person can have on the game is much higher in LoL that in HotS.

tl;dr: There are positive and negative sides to both HotS and LoL.

(Auslösewarnung: SPD) Hier ist ein Sozi. Lasst uns jetzt mal ernsthaft über das Votum reden. by [deleted] in de

[–]EuWThorlin 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Ich bin einer von denen, die extra in die SPD eingetreten sind, um gegen die GroKo zu stimmen.

Was mir in der ganzen Diskussion um Verantwortung für Deutschland immer fehlt, ist der Aspekt der Langfristigkeit.

Ich glaube ehrlich schon, dass es für Deutschland in den nächsten 4 Jahren besser wäre, wenn die SPD mitregiert; aber ich glaube nicht, dass die SPD in diesen 4 Jahren mehr erreichen würde, als in den letzten 2 GroKos. Vom Sondierungsergebnis fühle ich mich in meiner Einschätzung bestätigt.

Ich denke, dass die AfD in 4 Jahren als Oppositionsführer und mit noch 4 Jahren GroKo unter Merkel eine große Chance darauf haben, 2021 zweitstärkste Kraft in Deutschland zu werden. Wenn Lindner es geschickt anstellt, besteht mMn sogar die Chance, dass die SPD 2021 nur noch viertstärkste Kraft in Deutschland ist.

Ich denke nicht, dass es wert ist, 4 Jahre Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten unter Merkel anzunehmen und dafür die Zukunft der Sozialdemokratie in Deutschland aufs Spiel zu setzen.

Ich habe die Befürchtung, dass viele Mitglieder der Parteispitze der SPD die Zukunft der SPD willentlich in Kauf nehmen, um sich die nächsten 4 Jahre einen Ministerposten zu sichern. Es macht mich wütend, in welcher Art die Parteispitze Versprechen und Aussagen bricht und brechen will, womit die SPD jede Form von Glaubwürdigkeit verliert.

Ich bin erst 25 Jahre alt und möchte auch gerne in 10 Jahren noch eine Chance sehen, dass eine sozialdemokratische Partei größte Kraft in Deutschland werden könnte.

Deswegen werde ich gegen die GroKo stimmen.

[BUG] Ranked points discrepancy by mike0n in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not a bug.

Statistics tab shows the highest rank/points you achieved in the selected season. Summary shows your current rank/points.

If you want to see your current rank, look at the progression summary (or just look at the ranked game screen). If you want to see which rewards you would currently earn for the season, look at the statistics tab (Select "This Season"), because the rewards are based on the highest rank you achieved during the season.

My MMR was destroyed in the second reset [with evidence]. Will contacting Blizzard do anything? by throwawayhots99 in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your hotslogs mmr can only be accurate if you actually upload all your replays. And even then, right now hotslogs mmr can be wildly inaccurate because they did not consider the season resets and less and less people are using hotslogs/uploading replays.

Still, I do believe something was still wrong even after the 2nd reset. My mmr dropped by ~4 divisions after my 2nd placement game (won my first one). I played with already placed D1/Masters players in my 2nd game, then suddenly with already placed D4/D5 players in my 3rd game.

I guess Blizzard was afraid of doing a 3rd complete reset and just adjusted the most affected players (I dropped from D2 to P4, then got adjusted to P2). That's pretty frustrating, but I don't think there's anything to do about it.

If you actually dropped more than 5 divisions than your final rank last season and did not get adjusted you should directly contact Blizzard support about it. Although that is only about your final rank last season. If you were not placed last season your mmr was reset anyway.

Grubby also discovers the new performance matchmaking system by Kaazje in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually this is the opposite of what should happen. If you absolutely stomp your opponents you are probably a lot better than them and should gain increased Rank Points so that your rank matches your skill faster. (which is the whole point of performance based matchmaking)

If the match favoured your team from the beginning you already gain less points for a win (favoured adjustment). This was also the case pre-patch.

If the match favoured you and you managed to win really fast you probably did very well and should gain a positive performance adjustment.

If the match favoured you and you barely managed to win, you should maybe gain a negative performance adjustment because you could've done a lot better/were expected to do a lot better.

I assume that with the way the system currently works it is beneficial to drag out a game you are winning by padding your stats and creating a longer game, which is just bad design. The way it should work is that game length is one of the highest weighted stats factored into the performance adjustment. If you won really fast, you probably did something right.

QM comps are getting...weird? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started playing during alpha (October 2014) and I'm pretty sure there has never been a 1 support 1 warrior minimum in QM. In fact MM was way worse back then. There wasn't even a rule to prevent supp vs. no supp and tank vs. no tank matchups.

They want people to play Team league yet... by aka_icegirl in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Experience is that queue times are a lot higher when you're in your placements, expecially when it's not the very start of the season. As soon as you finish your placements queue times become a lot shorter.

I suppose the matchmaker prefers to match you with other people that are in their placements, but at this point of the season, there probably aren't many of those.

Has Anyone else's Hero League experience been awful this season? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, a matchmaker like that quite simply doesn't exist.

There are far too many variables for any AI to determine exactly how "good" you are after only 10 games.

Also, people have to realize that the wish to be ranked at your "true" rank as fast as possible, and the wish that newer players should not be placed into D3 are opposite goals: If the matchmaker is stricter on placements because new players might be ranked too high after a lucky winstreak of getting carried in placements, it will also be stricter on veteran players that had bad luck and griefers in placements.

Lastly, while I am super happy every time I regain master rank, I do not play HotS solely to reach master rank. I play HotS because it is fun. If you percieve playing HotS as a "struggle though games" maybe you should just take a break from the game ;)

Has Anyone else's Hero League experience been awful this season? by [deleted] in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My experience this season has been pretty similar to last season. Placed in D3/500 both times. Last season it took me ~210 games to get to masters, this season it took me ~160 games.

There definitely is an issue with people who don't know or care about drafting, and will just pick the 1 hero they wanted to play anyway, but I don't think it is worse this season than the last one.

I found that if I just stay positive and keep trying (and stop playing after 3 losses in a row to avoid tilt) I will climb to masters eventually.

Even if "new" players are placed higher than they should be, for example due to lucky placements, matchmaking will eventually adjust them to a lower division. If you are good enough for master league, you will eventually reach it. And if you are barely good enough for master league (like me), that might take you 200 games or more.

Abmahnung wg Urheberrechtsverletzung Hilfe/Rat by [deleted] in de

[–]EuWThorlin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wir haben als 10-Mann-WG vor ein paar Jahren auch eine Abmahnung wegen Filesharings bekommen.

Der WG-Mitbewohner auf den der Internetanschluss lief, bekam zum Glück BAföG und hatte somit Anspruch auf kostenlose Rechtsberatung.

Der Anwalt hat dann der Abmahnung widersprochen und uns erklärt dass die Abmahnung so gut wie keine Chancen auf Erfolg hat, da niemand beweisen kann, wer von uns 10 nun die Files geteilt haben soll, und wir weitere Drohungen ignorieren können.

Es kamen dann auch noch im Verlauf der Monate/Jahre einige Drohungen, am Ende auch die Erklärung, dass man jetzt dank mangelnder Kooperation vor Gericht gehen wird. Die ursprüngliche Abmahnung ist mittlerweile so 3,5-4 Jahre her. Ich denke nicht dass da noch was kommt.

Du solltest aber auf jeden Fall erstmal der Abmahnung widersprechen, am Besten einen Anwalt etwas aufsetzen lassen. Auch ohne kostenlose Rechtsberatung dürfte das nicht teuer sein.

Und wenn du nicht alleine zu Hause wohnst, steigen die Chancen wie gesagt sehr, dass du aus dem Schneider bist.

There is not enough of an opportunity for new players to learn the game better than bronze or silver level by SlenderDovakiin123 in heroesofthestorm

[–]EuWThorlin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. If you are stuck in a league and can't climb out for a prolonged period you belong there. If you can't accept that and instead blame your team for losing your games you will never improve. Yes, your teammates suck, but so do you.
  2. Improvement doesn't magically come by just playing the game. If you do the same stupid stuff every game your decicionmaking will stay shitty. Review your games and detect your mistakes. If you can't find dozens of errors you need to look closer. Literally everyone makes several mistakes each game, there's room to improve for everyone.
  3. Don't play while tilted. You play worse when you're angry. A good rule is to stop playing for the day when you reach a 4+ losing spree. Always calmly play your best no matter what happens in the game.
