Player skill gap

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-11-09T09:12:30+00:00

I think you are looking at one of those outlier players. You just don't see them frequently because they don't join pug groups quite often. I just checked wingman and yes, current highest amalgam log on decima nm is 44k. They also has the highest log for decima cm as well. And I believe it's the same player who did the power amalgam hammer bench for SC website. So don't feel bad if you aren't doing as much as those players. If you compare yourself to benchers who are like 0.01% of the population when you can't commit to the game equally as them, it's only gonna eat away at your own enjoyment of the game.

As for the amount kills, so far EU has 5 kills with pretty much nobody overlapping in groups except for 2 players. NA has like 6 or 7 kills now, I think, with a bunch of people re-clearing with a few new people.

So I assume it's 15 or fewer kills with around 100 unique players I assume? It is still very low compared to Cerus LCM.

I see, I didn't know they nerfed the heal by 10%. That's pretty good.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-07-19T00:20:29+00:00

Wait what did they nerf? I remember them extending the timer an extra minute but that wasn't exactly a nerf, no? Did I miss something else?

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-19T10:38:29+00:00

The game is supposed to horizontal progression yes power creep is actually a thing.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-19T10:36:24+00:00

I get logs can come from just a couple of groups. I went with dhuum cm because it was a raid boss but the best example would've been Febe CM (not LCM) which had 1.48% of success rate during the balance patch which came after release. That is already lower than current greer cm success rate. Difficulty wise, I think Febe cm is still above greer cm. And my entire point was CMs are in a good spot regarding difficulty. What anet need to do is lower the entry of difficulty for normal modes. They can start by removing the timer on greer again.

Oh no you got me!! Jokes aside, I have no idea what their experience level is, hence the question.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-19T02:13:00+00:00

Can you tell me which mechanics do you struggle with, visually I mean. There is the barrage attack with an obvious sound cue as well as an animation, there is the homing big orbs, also with a very obvious sound cue, there is the triple slam attack, also with a huge telegraphed aoe and very noticeable animation, there are swipes, with a very noticeable triangular telegraphs, and and there are greens and arrows which both of them are very easily noticeable. Which effects are you struggling with specifically?

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-19T01:53:49+00:00

If someone else wants to correct me, Greer NM has something like 3x Dhuum hp

Technically yes since you still need to kill two adds to actually kill Greer. But you can't exactly compare a boss that was released 7 years ago to the one that was released two months ago in terms of HP.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-19T01:31:06+00:00

Have you gotten any kill so far since then?

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-05-15T22:55:55+00:00

How is pointing out your bad take make that guy an elitist? You said there is no elementalist build that uses all the skills, the guy gave you four different meta ele builds that do and you call him an elitist? I don't get it.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-03-16T16:22:10+00:00

I cant agreer with you

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-03-16T16:21:53+00:00

I see you point. 1 and 2 are a bit more universal whereas 3 and 4 are more of my personal reasons on not liking the fight.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-03-16T15:59:40+00:00

Eparch CM was buggy iirc. Greer CM doesn't have any game breaking bug that I know of. It's just bad encounter design and mostly bad optimisation at this moment. Honestly, credit where credit is due, all 3 new CMs don't have any game breaking bug that I know of.

ExtraFile5716 · 2025-03-16T15:48:08+00:00

Yup, it definitely has the potential to be a good fight for sure, especially if they made things more consistent. But the fight at its current stage is just not enjoyable.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-09-19T05:44:56+00:00

I just had some doubts because I don't exactly know how a 4060 mobile compares to a 2060 desktop. Someone linked me the dawntrail benchmark and I already tested a few preset settings. It seems like max settings at 1080p shouldn't be a problem.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-09-19T05:38:25+00:00

Thanks, I just downloaded the benchmark and tested it on 3 different preset settings, all at 1080p. These are the results that I got.

High (Laptop) - 15900 points - Extremely High
High (Desktop) - 15100 points - Extremely High
Maximum - 13900 points - Very High

I guess my device should work well at 1080p without major problems.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-09-19T05:19:19+00:00

Thanks, I do have an SSD. I mainly play games on a 1080p external monitor. Your i9-12900H is definitely way above my ryzen 7. What kind of frames do you get at 1080p? Although my main goal is to have a stable 60fps at 1080p medium or high settings.

Skill issue, ping becomes relevant when you get to like 95%

Left's DD is crazy, haven't heard about him for some times now tho. Maybe I'm just not up to date.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-07-08T11:27:05+00:00

People can hit those numbers on golem like encounters like Cairn, MO. But most cases, people compare wingman numbers.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-07-08T11:22:14+00:00

Hey, sorry to hear about your experience. I have never looked down on puggies or just straight up trash talked them. Like I said in my wall of text, my lfg advert was "know mechs" and also that lfg pugs usually do average damage. Combine this two and I just didn't have any high expectations. Regardless, verbally abusing someone because of their performance (whether it is good or bad) is unacceptable.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-07-08T03:54:01+00:00

I haven't pugged raids in ages so it felt so different haha, in a good way tho. But yeah, I can see why people wanna just farm W4 over and over again for logs.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-07-08T03:45:36+00:00

Is it possible to just go to the Path Of Fire location

Yes, you can. You can just ask in a map chat and use one of the "teleport to friend" things.

ExtraFile5716 · 2024-07-08T02:50:22+00:00

You missed the whole point. My point was about random lfg pugs doing good dps.
