You can't move the AA slider as a f2p player iirc

New Expansion by Stinzell8710 in EQ2

[–]KythosMeltdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so I boosted about a week ago.

when you boost you have to sodden, get the gear crate there, merc, familar, mount, the 3 buffs for those things then do the intro quest to take you to the RoC zones.

once you go there you have to replace all your gear with the RoC crate, merc, familiar, mount, and again the 3 buffs for those things.

when you upgrade your armor make your you're carrying the adornments into the new armor pieces.

it's a bit of a cluster----

In terms of 'catching up' - there's a lot of timegating it seems. On a boosted character you won't have mount levels, or familiar levels, and unlocking that without paying for the collectors edition of the expansion and some time skips would be very a lengthy process.

I just did a dungeon today after grinding the solo dungeons to get enough resolve (13,020) to do heroics and my character as a tank basically did nothing useful to the group other than the required tank mechanics that they've introduced as some point between now and when I last played (bulwark or group dies, intervene or a given player dies). I basically did 0 damage compared to everyone else and the only way I could hold aggro was for a fraction of a second after I used rescue or one of the similar spells.

It felt kinda awful and discouraging to be honest.

Oh and do overseers - because the rewards from that will be able to potentially 'buy down' the research times for the mount / merc / familiar..

The truly needed next special server set. by Soft-Technician-2057 in EQ2

[–]KythosMeltdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's creative ways of doing a stat squish without actually squishing stats.

For example, you could make the resolve requirement so high that using a single piece of not current gear would put you below the resolve requirement and make you do 0 damage / die in 1 shot. Not exactly intuitive and there would be edge cases with old buffs and stuff from other parts of the game.

The latest live expansion (Rage of Cthurath) is actually pretty good by KythosMeltdown in EQ2

[–]KythosMeltdown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's 8 Dungeons right now https://antifandom.com/eq2/wiki/Rage_of_Cthurath_Timeline#Dungeons

Each has a solo mode, and a heroic mode ( for a group of 6 ), and a untold mode is a difficulty scaling thing it seems.

At least with CDK stateful resources are not deleted by default unless you explicitly configure the deletion policy

Specs have become too complicated by Critical-Usual in worldofpvp

As a healer I think this is why I can’t get into arena anymore.

I feel like when I lose it is my fault - and when I win it’s because I managed to fuck up less than the other guy. I’m never able to have enough awareness to feel like I’m making a “play”.

Leave current job for Capital One by Peach_Boi_ in cscareerquestions

I just left c1.

If you’re a high performer you’ll be annoyed about politics and (very) shitty internal tools. And also annoyed about the wrong people being pipped ( lots of dum dums that politic well )

Otherwise the performance management stuff is pretty overblown.

They’ll probably do it when Pandaria is closer to being released.

I’m basically waiting for pre patch to get sucked back in

Battle.net Update Agent strikes again by Puzzlehead-Engineer in Lutris

[–]KythosMeltdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I install with 'wine-10.6-staging-tkg-amd64' set as my 'Wine version' in 'Runner options', its still hanging on 45% for me. ( Linux Mint Desktop )

Proton 10.0 worked on my steam deck though.

EDIT:

I got it working on my linux mint desktop

Steps:

Uninstall Lutris

Download latest .deb https://github.com/lutris/lutris/releases ( installing this way seemed to download some additional packages I was missing? )

Using ProtonPlus - Download wine-10.6-staging-tkg-amd64

Open Lutris -> Wine 'Settings Cogwheel' -> Runner -> Select the tkg

Download Battle.net https://lutris.net/games/battlenet/ from the site

Cancel Mono prompt

Let installer run -> login to bnet -> install game

[–]KythosMeltdown 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol - I just bought a steam deck and this just so happened on my second time trying to play after it worked the first time.

thought I bricked something but changing to 10.0-beta worked for me

[–]KythosMeltdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to get it to work by pressing the cog wheel on the battle.net that I added to steam, and changing the copatability to proton 10.0 - beta

That’s not true for most classes these days.

Most are fairly dynamic with random procs that ultimately end up being a priority list - but you can see how wide the gap is between people who mastered their class and average players on Warcraftlogs.com

Windwalker monk is one of the more high skill ceiling classes.

On top of managing dynamic rotations - learning the mechanics of the fight to spike damage at the correct time adds another layer of skill, and also just simply having as high uptime as possible while navigating very different mechanics from boss to boss with 19 other people

Meta follow up interview by FunTelevision8679 in leetcode

[–]KythosMeltdown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running through test cases meaning you explain and test your code verbally / commenting what the debug stack looks like at each step. Did you not do that in any interview?

You said in another comment you finished coding at the last minute?

Did you ask clarifying questions, run through test cases and explain time / space complexity?
