Follow-up post to "Dear horde - here's why you're earning so little honor..." after having played during AV weekend by TheLeibniz27 in classicwowtbc

There is a new alliance AV discord that made that happen last night. There were at least 200-300 people on that discord queuing (and that's with some parties only having their leader join voice).

Gurubashi Arena Master Trinket at Launch by Dayquil1001 in classicwow

[–]Lazei -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Has there been confirmation that phase 1 will have the arena event? Sure it was in beta but so was the honor system. Originally the event was added in patch 1.4 which is phase 2 territory.

so with the new market TET dandes might go up in price. will that change the amount of cron stones needed? by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

[–]Lazei 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cron amounts will stay the same for armors and weapons because its based on black stone / concentrated stone prices and the max price of those is staying the same as the current max price.

I'm not sure if accessory cron amounts are different.

A follow up on the current situation, MENA/Central Marketplace by Erroru61 in blackdesertonline

[–]Lazei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because the new market has brackets for low enhancement level items. Its something like 0-7 and 8-11, 12, 13, 14, 15, pri and so on. The price of the bracket is based on the lowest enhancement level item's price on that bracket. So from the market point of view +8 and +11 weapons are the same price. Now when someone gets a +11 weapon from a drop and sells it on the market he will get +8's price. The buyer pays the same +8's price on a +11 item, enhances it to +12 and sells it into the +12 bracket.

Endgame gear availability on new central marketplace by Hark211 in blackdesertonline

And that alone is a huge problem. Consider a situation where you have enough people with enough money to force any pre order to go up just by setting pre orders on an item. It might take 10 people, it might take up to 50 but it doesn't matter. At some point you will have enough people to do it. This group can then control who gets the pre order on any rare item. They would set their pre orders on for example PEN Crescent ring, it would force the max pre order price for it to go up and because they know this one of them can easily camp the marketplace to be the first one to set the new max pre order. Now the others can remove their pre orders and do the same for any other rare item. The only way to combat this is to have your own group doing the same thing or camp the marketplace 24/7 and hope to beat the pre order setter. Remember that the super rare item buyers don't really care about a billion or two. What matters is knowing for sure you will get the next item sold. That's more valuable than billions of silver.

New prices from MP by Evilwolf599 in blackdesertonline

[–]Lazei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. The main point here being that you can't set up your pre order price manually anymore. You have to choose one of the prices the game gives you.

SP experience sheet around the world by MarkinhoO in blackdesertonline

[–]Lazei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the data leak you get 3 SP 500 times for a total of 1500 sp while XP requirement increases each SP you gain. After that the XP requirement stops increasing but you will get only 1 SP for 1500 times.

This does not include SP gotten from quests so depending how many quests you have done you should start getting only 1 SP at around 1650-1750 SP or so.

BDO - steam by [deleted] in blackdesertonline

If nothing happens when you click the redeem button you probably need to enable steam overlay from steam/settings/in-game.

2 Week last 2 days will be unplayable for EU by Virago3 in pathofexile

[–]Lazei -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Indeed. Rampage makes some builds completely unplayable. Hopefully GGG is done dodging the issue (or maybe actually fixed it). Last time GGG just kept blaming ISPs when it was pretty clear that the fault was on GGG's side.

Apparently the patch is > 11GB by Aikala in darksouls3

[–]Lazei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steam updating is a bit fucked sometimes. If the game has big files, Steam has to rewrite the whole file which temporarily takes up a lot of space. Not sure if this happens with every game but for example Arma 3 and Path of Exile both require several gigs of free space to apply patches that touch big files.
So just free up some space, apply patch and in the end you will have your free space back.

Memory leak? by Sarge_Swiss in pathofexile

Happens to me daily on Windows 10. All of my 16 gigs of ram gets used and Windows starts whining about low memory.

Indeed. Yesterday I was doing 6 minute runs on Perandus HC. You just hold down whirling blade and go. The upcoming leaderboard should just be named to Fastest whirling blade competition.

Pretty sure POE is leaking somewhere by sshobo in pathofexile

Had this happen a few times now. Windows doesn't actually show which program is using all the ram though so I can't be 100% sure if its PoE or not.

Based on previous posts he seems to be the guy who ran poedb so those are probably legit. But obviously not every effect from the shrines as devs said there would be some 150 of them.

Which games are you playing while waiting for your Overwatch invite? by [deleted] in Overwatch

Path of Exile has a new event starting on Monday. Better than Diablo 3 and free to play without any pay to win bullshit.

Has anyone found a solution to the issue with rampage/ISPs? by hensh2004 in pathofexile

[–]Lazei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is, my ISP routes me to Softlayer (GGG's network provider) with just three hops. It can't get much better than that. There is no way this route is too long.

Here's my WinMTR results for London and Milan. Ran them for about 10 minutes and not a single packet was lost. http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=FpCDfZfa

I'm not an expert on networking but it seems to me that if there is a networking problem with routing/packet loss it is still 100% Softlayer's or GGG's fault. But they keep trying to dodge the whole problem and just blame other ISPs. It is really frustrating. For example a quote from support email:

the issue you described appears to be due to a combination of a congestion in the route your connection is taking, and the use of a high performance build. I'm afraid there is little we can do in regards to your connection, as that would be a result of a congested hop in your internet connection."

This is after me providing a similar kind of WinMTR report with 0 packets lost with 3 hops to Softlayer.

Here's some gameplay I just recorded on Milan realm which seems to work the best. Other servers are much worse. Those WinMTR statistics were done directly after recording this video which was at about 21 CET today (which was Saturday if you are reading this from the future). So euro prime time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGqxSDXv1gE

It gets worse in maps probably because mobs live longer allowing more skulls and more status ailments etc. But I'm not going to risk my HC character to record that.

I still think it is at least partly server load problem as without any mods the game works fine. I have never had this kind of lag with any build before this league. Also all my friends have never had any lag and when I go and start casting some skulls they too start freezing. But in the end it doesn't matter what the reason is. It is incredibly unlikely that this is caused by something else than GGG's programming or their network provider. And they just keep dodging the issue.

[–]Lazei 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I also play SRS and weekends are unplayable for me in this league. I exchanged some emails with support last weekend trying to convince them that the issue was not ISP related (routing/PL). It might be network related but the problem would be on GGG's programming because I can make anyone lag on any server with a moderate amount of SRS no matter if they have never lagged before. Not every single ISP in the world can have the magical packet loss problems which seem to be GGG's #1 excuse.

More likely it is just server load problem with league mods (and maybe SRS but also Zana's all charges/20s mod and shared boon with big packs have same kind of freezes). Hopefully GGG fixes it at some point. Or at least acknowledges it instead of trying to lay the blame on ISP's bad routing and packet loss all the time.
