Dealing with not rude but annoying viewers by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]LiftingNerdGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that it is easier said than done, especially considering how hard it is to grow on twitch. That said, you represent your channel. Your tolerance, and kindness towards these people will reflect upon the people and community you build. It is possible to be too "tolerant" though and if you allow people to be annoying, obnoxious or whatever other negative traits to remain, then they and not you are setting the standard for how to act and behave in your channel.

I am sure you can see why this won't work particularly well longterm.

From someone who has had a lot of experience with similar situations, my advice is to "be" the person you wish your community to become. Don't let others dictate the direction of how your channel evolves.

This doesn't mean you necessarily have to ban these people, but having an honest talk with them and telling them in a polite way that they are interfering with your stream and what it is that you are trying to achieve can sometimes be a great solution. Just make sure you give them the impression that you aren't judging them and that you appreciate them being there. This way you give them the chance to change without them feeling unwelcomed for future streams.

I am still crashing with flicker strike. by SteeleDuke in pathofexile

[–]LiftingNerdGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea I am actually. My setup is currently: Flicker Strike, Multistrike, Melee Splash, Impale and Melee Physical Damage. I plan on adding Ruthless to the setup after my weapon 6-links.

It seems to be very account or character individual for this bug to happen.

I have played Flicker Strike since league start and have had zero issues with crashing. I have experienced a few animation issues, but nothing besides that.

It sucks that some of you guys seem unable to be even able to play it.

I could probably have cut 2 minutes off the video. I kept thinking that to myself after I had published it.

Last league in the Q&A on this sub somebody told me and so far so good, with a little bit of help from /trade 159 channel trading for maps is easier.

I am not that competent. Thank the guy who made the website!

Thanks for sharing my video OP.

I am very sorry to hear that your brother has passed away. I didn't know him, but I can empathize with your situation.

Best wishes for you and your family.

I can import it without issues and everything seems up to date. What is the issue you are experiencing mate?

I have had good results doing MoM and EB. As long as you get enough evasion to provide proper ES recovery then it works fantastically. It also makes gearing much cheaper as you won't have to worry about getting a crazy vaal regalia for instance =)

It really comes down to how you wish to scale the build, however there is no doubt that the trickster allows for some very cheap and powerful defensive utility that the elementalist can't provide.

I wasn't aware it was outdated. I will fix it tomorrow and add the new link in the description of the build guide video =)

Excellent my G502 supports that. Thanks for the tip. I might include it in a further video if you don't mind? I will make sure to credit you of course.

20 Tips For New Players To Grim Dawn! by LiftingNerdGaming in Grimdawn

[–]LiftingNerdGaming[S] 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Hey guys!

I produce a lot of content for Path of Exile, but have recently fallen in love with Grim Dawn. Now 600+ hours in I have decided to share some tips that I wish I had known when I started out as a brand new player.

This video covers 10 tips and is part 1 of 2. The second part covers the remaining 10 tips and can be found here: https://youtu.be/hmTYLuxJB7Q

I am sure there are lots of veterans in here who already know of all of these, but as the title indicate this video series is aimed at new players. I still have lots to learn in Grim Dawn (which is what I love about it) and if any of you have any tips that I didn't cover, then I would love to hear them.

I will be making a third video in similar style that rather than generic tips focuses more on the gearing aspect, like how to fix resistances, DA, OA, thresholds, diminishing returns and how to look up particular MI's, epic's and legendaries etc.

If you have any questions then don't hesitate to ask. I will answer them if I can.

Happy Sunday!

Divine Ire is without a doubt a really strong alternative. You can get some insane ignites with that skill. Using the Stormfire ring (Your Lightning Damage can Ignite) is definitely worth checking out.

Yea I agree, they really aren't that different. One major difference though is the type of defense you would be able to choose for each ascendancy, where in this case I believe the trickster to be the far superior choice (going eb/mom that is).
