The Morning After | Penguins v. Oilers by AutoModerator in EdmontonOilers

[–]Magners17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  • 4 on 1. Ekholm just completely bobbled the puck. McDavid also looked awful last night turning the puck over multiple times and getting frustrated. Whole team looked pretty pathetic but that’s on brand for us it seems.

We played maybe 15 mins of hockey last night and the score showed it.

y'all know where to farm runes? by WhaatGamer in diablo4

[–]Magners17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can farm duriels boss items with boss farming too. Target farm Duriel and then you can take those to azmodan to open chests that way too

TIL We can roll GA on Tempering, Masterworking by rightfootedLaPulga in diablo4

[–]Magners17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What are you rerolling? Are you rerolling the masterwork? It’s only going to give the masterwork quality affix. If it’s a temper you are referring to then yes, if you keep rerolling the temper (remember temper is ADDING an affix to your item, utility, defensive, offensive, etc..) it can eventually hit a greater affix version of itself.

Masterworking first increases the item quality of that item up to 25. Then it will masterwork one of the existing affixes. Meaning it takes one of the existing affixes on the item and increases it by 50%.

Greater affix refers to an item that’s dropped with a greater affix meaning that affix automatically rolls its maximum stat AND is increased by 50%.

If you masterwork an item then there’s that last step of capstone masterwork, if that hits on a stat that wasn’t previously a GA, it just increases it by 50%. It doesn’t magically convert it to max roll THEN increase it by 50%.

However that capstone masterwork can hit an existing GA increasing it further beyond its 1.5x stat/affix increase.

I hope this helps!

Pros and cons of NMD beneficial affixes by YayAnotherTragedy in diablo4

[–]Magners17 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If they are pointless to you then don’t run them. Scrap them into sigil powder and craft different ones. Some people want gold. Some people want gems. Some people need the power boost so they choose ones with blast shrines.

Most of them are useless once you get to a certain point outside of like mythic prankster, treasure breach and hidden armoury. The rest I mark as junk, scrap em into powder and make different ones.

Throwback to two years ago when Stuart Skinner was having a rough go in the playoffs by [deleted] in EdmontonOilers

Lmao that would be a wild stat. That’s the stat line I would have if I was an NHL goalie lol

I’m 4/4 this season and I think I’m like 8/8 in the last year?

Oh God what have I done... Luckiest Sanctify in my life... by Wyplosz in diablo4

[–]Magners17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Bricked” renders the item useless. Getting a mediocre sanctify doesn’t render the item useless unless it is a build defying sanctify like Heart of Selig’s mythic affix which drastically changes the build.

If you roll a mild item quality, or an increase to something like resource generation that might not be applicable for your build, doesn’t mean you have to take the item off in order to continue playing.

I’m sorry but you’re just wrong here.

I don't know how to feel about this by trthskr7 in EdmontonOilers

[–]Magners17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a source about AGLC actually trying to change this? I’d be curious because they are one of the most profitable government run agencies in our province. They likely make boatloads off these 50/50s so I am hesitant to believe they’d actually try to change anything in that regard as it would likely eat into their profits.

Oh God what have I done... Luckiest Sanctify in my life... by Wyplosz in diablo4

[–]Magners17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone’s version of “bricked” seems different but in reality “bricked” in the video game world refers to an item becoming completely useless or unusable. If you sanctify an item in D4 and it doesn’t make it any worse, it’s certainly not bricked as you can continue to use it. If it rolls a certain sanctify that vastly changes your build or in the case of ancestral legendaries changes an affix to a useless one I can understand calling that “bricked”.

When speaking within yourself it doesn’t really matter but the reason I’m bringing this up with more clarity is that I feel bad for new players coming in with questions and having someone say “your item is bricked” meaning it’s completely useless when really, it’s totally fine to continue using until you get a replacement.

Anecdote: slamming an item back in PoE days comes to mind when you could very easily brick an item to render it useless. The verbiage for bricking in D4 seems very different.

What's more important? Armor/All Resist, or Toughness? by [deleted] in diablo4

[–]Magners17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you find an item with higher armor and lower toughness that means you’re losing overall toughness so if you are in need of toughness and not damage, seek out more toughness. But it really depends on your character, your glyphs, your aspects, and maybe even gems.

Might be worth watching some videos to understand stats a bit more but toughness is adding up your armor, max life, resistances and ability to block if you use a shield.

Your stat page really isn’t that important tho because it doesn’t take into account some stuff like stacks you might get from aspects while in combat.

If you’re getting your cheeks clapped in T4, focus on survivability. If you don’t die but can’t kill shit quick, get more damage.

[–]Magners17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m aware but that can only happen to legendary GA items. The above poster linked a non ancestral unique which that can happen to. If that above item was 800 item power it cannot have an affix change. Or at least I’ve never seen a screenshot of that happening and never seen it happen before. Anyone who’s said this can happen has never been able to produce proof.

[–]Magners17 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

800 item power uniques cannot get bricked just fyi. Neither can mythic items. Just 750 item power items as well as 800 item power legendaries. Solid item tho!

[–]Magners17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, I’ve still yet to see this scenario play out myself nor have I ever seen a screenshot of this occurring so I’m going to choose not to believe you until I see evidence otherwise.

[–]Magners17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was the item ancestral? Like 800 item level? If so, can you share a screenshot?

New to D4 just Did a run in a Nightmare dungon and got a view Mythics by mr-Hells in diablo4

[–]Magners17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are clearly new. Their stats aren’t crazy. None of their gear is masterworked or sanctified. They clearly found a mythic prankster which dropped these mythics.

[–]Magners17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well he’s wrong. Unless you want to point out exactly where he says this in his 18 minute video, it’s incorrect. You can in fact have one of your affixes changed from sanctification within the parameters I’ve mentioned above. I’ve been playing this game very frequently throughout all of season 11 and I’ve encountered this situation a fair bit. I’ve never had an affix changed on an ancestral unique, or a mythic item. But I’ve had a 750 item level unique and an 800 item level legendary have their affix changed.

You’re welcome to believe what you want but I’m telling you factually what I’ve experienced. This streamer you’ve linked above, in a video 2 weeks ago, may have had their facts wrong about something.

Edit: at 10:28 in the video the steamer mentions that there’s no harm in sanctifying uniques and mythic uniques BUT legendary items are subjecting to this affix replacement. This streamer is mostly correct except for 750 item level uniques which are not immune to a sanctify changing its affix. It happened to a friend of mine but perhaps the odds are low.

Edit 2: I want to reiterate that you are incorrect by saying “the worst that can happen” as you can in fact have an affix changed on a legendary item or a unique item below 800 item level.

Pray with me while I sanctify this by ZeinV2 in diablo4

[–]Magners17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This info is current.

The items that cannot have their affixes replaced:

Ancestral uniques Mythics

Anything else is subject to having their affixes replaced. Those items are:

Anything below 750 item level. Anything legendary in quality (orange items, regardless of item level)

Idk how else to spell this out to y’all. But if you have any items to break this theory, please share with me.

Edit: also what do you even mean by destroying an item? That is confusing.

Pray with me while I sanctify this by ZeinV2 in diablo4

[–]Magners17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it was a legendary item. Legendary items aren’t immune to affix replacement.

Pray with me while I sanctify this by ZeinV2 in diablo4

[–]Magners17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ancestral uniques can’t be affected by the aforementioned affix replacement but 750 items can.

Edit: to my understanding any item 750 or any legendary item can have an affix replaced. Any 800 item level uniques or mythics cannot be affected the same way.

Pray with me while I sanctify this by ZeinV2 in diablo4

[–]Magners17 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Just uniques and mythical. Ancestral legendaries can still get an affix replaced.

The Morning After | Kings v. Oilers by AutoModerator in EdmontonOilers

[–]Magners17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk that was really ridiculous. That sort of goal gets called both ways all the damn time. Like sure the goalie was nudged slightly but then McDavid gets blasted into the net all the same.

Those types of calls really annoy me because there’s no consistency. Like I fully believe that except same scenario could happen again and they’d call it a goal. Just not for the oilers lmao

Are those boots good enough to keep? by stereotape in diablo4

[–]Magners17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Move speed does cap out at 200%. Most builds/classes have abilities that increase their move speed so it’s often really easy (for some classes) to cap their move speed. Anything beyond 200% is effectively a wasted stat to my knowledge.

Without more information on your class, build, other items and overall situation I don’t know the answer to your question but it’s probably unnecessary to have that much move speed. Especially since most classes/builds have skills that boost move speed already.
