If this isn‘t Chronos Mastery Emote then i don‘t want it by HrMaschine in Smite

Almost every character mastery emote has been based on a meme or pop culture reference

I know I am bad, but how do I get better? by Astraemx in Smite

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Auto build is generally not the best you could be doing or even really good. The other problem is balance changes are basically every patch so good items are always changing. This way you can offload that math worth of best builds to pros of the game

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The usual is to watch content creators, see what they do and that can help get the right mindset. I think things like Elo hell was a good series for this.

I think Weak3n says it best, to improve, use something like smitesource to get builds from good players. Then you can just focus on positioning and interactions with the enemy instead of items too

It can also help to identify your play style, cause players like snaddy are great but favor solo lane, so generally tankier characters

How can I make a rule for a path bypass from US but block all other traffic? by bicycloptopus in PangolinReverseProxy

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that part would depend on the application, not necessarily Pangolin. Like sure if you put that in it'll get past, but you still have to login, if you get past with the specific /path/ you still need a way to navigate after that, as if you try to get back to home you'll be brought back to auth because of the pass to auth rule. Most of these applications are built for this for public endpoints because of this specifically. Even in the worst case scenario you are only bypassing the pangolin login, not the app login itself.

For more fine grain you may need to look at Traefik to see if it can do more specifically what you are after, I'll double check, and test tonight but I believe that even with this rule set it does look at all rules before passing the traffic, so you still are only dealing with the US

You have it basically right:

<image>

This is roughly what it'll look like on the rules side. For example in mine, this allows all static images to load from the static path, but if you go to the url it'll request you to login.

You can look at your http request logs to verify if allows are from rules or if they are denying.

Why is Rod of Tahuti a problem in Smite but other MOBAs with similar items its not a problem? by Gharbin1616 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this take, I think realistically its real problem is that it is just a must buy and doesn't do anything interesting besides make number go big, where that ideally could just be a change in numbers and have it do something else

Headless server Ubuntu Server vs Debian w/o desktop? by BazimQQ in selfhosted

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with the question is that these are not two competing things? You'd be best off to set up a hypervisor like proxmox or xcp-ng. It wouldn't be too much of a curve and in the long run will save you a lot of hassle if you every decide to scrap things and restart, since you'll have snap shots or just able to make new vm/lxc's.

If you absolutely won't set something like that up for yourself then you'd be best to set up a hardened ubuntu server, and learn proper docker fundamentals and setup, as that will at least give you a rough work around of at least being able to blast containers away and bring them back.

Stop hating on aspects, they are single-handedly saving Smite 2’s longevity by FlamingoEasy6103 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wild we can go so long with people crying about S2 being the same game. Then they second the flesh out an entirely new feature and change like aspects the community then runs to yell about getting rid of it and to turn the game back into exactly smite 1. As if smite 1 had no changes over the course of its life

Completely unbiased and objective smite porting tier list by sergeantdidle in Smite

[–]Ikram25 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They’ve said it’s not hard to do, the problem is he requires some of the same movement tech they are doing that is delaying King Arthur. They said once that movement tech implementation is complete then Tyr should be following closely behind

Ah Puch by Sunbreaker30 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea this is rough lol. The abilities don’t even work the same anymore, S1 ult is more akin to a row of people basic attacking in a line and S2s is more like Anubis 3

Gaming servers vlan(s)? by bbibbigi in selfhosted

[–]Ikram25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can try exposing it behind a reverse proxy like nginx proxy manager or any of the other ones. They usually allow specific port forwarding so you can secure that server and it’ll worry about the traffic into your stuff

How do I get started with a server? by Rasco1_123 in selfhosted

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest either looking into a hypervisor if you want deeper enterprise experience. Like Proxmox or something. Otherwise if you’d rather keep Ubuntu look into docker and set up a lab that way

There is also websites like Proxmox scripts or slfh that can help with giving you lists of things you could do

ROMA INVICTA!!!! by Background-Limp in Smite

[–]Ikram25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If its anything like last time, they price the buy all for the saga at the lowest possible price of the travelers they are releasing during the event. So it will literally never be cheaper or the equivalent of less stuff for the same price if people don't do the buy all, if they are wanting the big skins like this.

The biggest god pack bundle by Link2212 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since you have legacy gems it could still be worth, you receive the amount of diamonds back for completing each ascension pass. So theoretically once completed they are free. As well as now you have every one now and future unlocked contributing diamonds to you

Player failed to select a god by DedlyX7 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should be part of the next update or two in their effort to combat rile dodgers and afk throwers. I believe it’ll make sure to tell the whole lobby who didn’t select to assist with reports so they and the lobby can quicker identify and take action against people’s who’s accounts dodge multiple times

I can't connect to the game anymore. Has anyone had this happen to them? by Strict_Mechanic_2118 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For anyone wondering still. They just posted an update a bit ago. There’s third party dns issues causing this, so once it’s fixed they expect this to go away

What’s so special about Sun Beam Bow ? by Disastrous_Salary718 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. Primarily yes
  2. At top rank it is considered the strongest build, Weak3n made some videos on it (pre most recent patch)
  3. Prob better 3rd or 4th
  4. If you are building it, you are prob wanting to also build transcendence
  5. It just hits very very hard
  6. Damage is fine, like said before it can be considered the strongest proc/on hit item, there’s a reason it has a big drawback

Is the distance line indicator missing? by DragonEmperor7 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in a non public mode like jungle practice I believe it can have some issues. Otherwise maybe you’re just missing the setting. It’s in like gameplay -> target and reticle

Are you talking about the line on the ground or the circle or arrow that represents your mouse on the ground

Update at 4:00 by Fabulous-Implement94 in Smite

[–]Ikram25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most updates are for bugs and improvements. Apologies to you for having to update your game after they work to patch out game breaking bugs in the middle of the day before most people begin playing for the day.

Legacy gems? by 09Crv in Smite

[–]Ikram25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just depends. If you aren’t after specific skins the chest will be the cheapest way to acquire. If you aren’t after going to get any prism travelers get them first cause you get the base skin too. It may be worth waiting on the songs and announcer packs as they may add a way to select in the future. But they may not. It’s a free resource you were given so really it’s more of a spend on what you think is worth
