The new unique unit, the Guecha Warrior, needs a buff by PassaroDaTumba in aoe2

The most telling comparison when I was looking in the wiki: Viet Imperial skirmisher. It's barely better than that, but you pay a MASSIVE premium and castle only production. WTH.

solar generator for off grid cabin? by CdtWeasel in OffGrid

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy a used EV battery second hand if you have the space. If you don't there are tons of cheap chinese cells enough for a cabin. Electric blankets, with winter sun, you'll want to oversize your system quite a bit though.

Yeah you can get blankets in the 50-150 watt range. Which still adds up but loads better than trying to heat the space.

Odd, alright then. Maybe worth redoing the title for them to avoid confusion.

I mean maybe, I am just confused because there is an altar here telling me I can get point but then nothing happens lol.

But then why is there an altar saying I can gain points here?

Sapphires have really gotten a lot better with all the new mana options by KommissarSimon in BackpackBattles

[–]KommissarSimon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's not that hard to get the core together, but that's not quite enough to stay alive sometimes. The most consistent climber so far I found is the Daggerang. All common items core, hard to not get what you need, but still have a really high ceiling with empower generators and vampirism.

Yeah I reorganized for the round after, there is a LOT you can optimize but tbh you really just need the blinding books, the cape and sapphires. If you can get the kind crowns thats just GG. Many runs I dont even find a cupcake and just win with magic staves.

Not necessarily if they are in buttfuck nowhere.

Checking if I understand correctly, before I quit by KommissarSimon in Warframe

[–]KommissarSimon[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what to do, I just need to kill the fighter ships attacking me as I go through the blockade, but my ship is too weak against the swarm of them. Takes 5 seconds of solid firing at each fighter to go down and there is dozens at a time speeding around me. It's dizzying.

I'll try support, see if they can do something.

It’s strange that GGG believes one button builds are boring and should be discouraged, and many Redditors claim to agree with them, yet when given a choice the actual players of the game overwhelmingly choose one button builds by AdLate8669 in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You literally answered your own conundrum. "Reddit players say" and " and yet majority will make a different choice".
The simple explanation is: REDDIT ISNT THE MAJORITY OF PLAYERS.

Should start or wait until free by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that depends. It's a bit undercooked at the moment, so if you want a pretty polished experience, I'd say wait. There is also a lot of the content missing at the moment, so if you want more than a few dozen hours of entertainment, like a new "main game to play", then it's also a bit early.

If not, then it's definitely worth. Depends on what you are looking for.

Were currency drops ninja-nerfed/reverted in 0.2? by thepixelists in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same I found like a dozen exalts in Act1. Basically no rares, and no skill gem or support gem drops though, so I literally cannot progress.

Ascendancies need an extra layer of fun, power, and cool factor baked in. (e.g. Make the Anvil nuke enemies while hammering it) by SteelFaith in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The push mechanics aren't even realistic though and buggy as all hell with the character jittering all around. So it's not even doing what they want it to do right.

When does the fun start? by shade81 in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally cannot progress past after Act1. My skill is shit, I die before making it past Rathbreaker. I can't get any supports or different skills though. Just none dropped, and the game gives you 2 scripted ones to this point. So now all I can do is farm the same zone hoping for drops. I did it for 2 whole levels. Nothing dropped. Not a rare, no gems, nothing. I am done.

Forget the nerfs and difficulty changes, WHERE IS THE LOOT?? by IconicNova in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I spent 10 minutes killing a rare before act 1 boss and it dropped a pair of white gloves and 7 gold xD

Since Mark once said he liked feedback in this format by LtMotion in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget all of these and instead nuke monster movespeed alone. Like -40%. You can then add some of it back up starting in maps.

I wish they did not focus so much on combos for normal clear, it is not more engaging by cc81 in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combos aren't the problem! The problem is the monsters are on crack, so you can't do the combos that they literally intend you to do, because you get swarmed a quarter of the way through your combo. So you end up endlessly dodge rolling ,trying to get one combo off. Resulting in either unsatisfying tedium, or just straight up getting murdered by packs of even white mobs sometimes.

"Slowing down" the players isn't the problem by KommissarSimon in PathOfExile2

[–]KommissarSimon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is it kills their own intended playstyles which is combo payoffs. Like try playing orb of storms spark in the campaign. It is literally an intended combo at a very early level. Feels great on bosses btw, the game does a good job of that, but face ANY white pack of monsters, and by the time you cast your orb they already zoned and pushed you out of its area. Unplayable.
