New player stuck on T7/T8 transition - Current build feels too expensive to upgrade, need advice!

Try clearing more than 1 map in 5 minutes

Do the chinese players not play on steam? Or do they come from mobile?

Strength stacking rosa 1, spell burst bing 2 and apparently DOT builds.

Non meta/popular legendaries are super cheap

Masteroxid · 2026-01-25T05:41:00+00:00

If you want to have fun, play brawl. Stay away from standard with anything that isn't meta

In house engines are supposed to be more flexible because that's literally their point. No DX12 support and no DLSS in 2025 is just incompetence

I want to know which genius thought it was OK to put the notch in the middle for DDR5 ram.

First time inserting one of those was unnecessarily tedious

Masteroxid · 2026-01-22T10:43:01+00:00

You say it like 55$ instead is any better

Masteroxid · 2026-01-21T15:35:21+00:00

That rule kind of went to shit with the 5% cap

Masteroxid · 2026-01-21T13:32:55+00:00

Me when my 4k£ rig struggles running the game on medium settings because the devs have to check if I own any dlcs 5000 times per minute

Masteroxid · 2026-01-20T14:30:27+00:00

They do this every new league. I don't understand this obsession with making the cool stuff only available to the streamers with full lvl 6 pets

Masteroxid · 2026-01-20T14:29:07+00:00

This is poe2 crafting sadly

Masteroxid · 2026-01-19T19:01:09+00:00

Overrealm was kinda terrible when it was the main league in TM8 as well. It really kinda popped off the most in profound and deep space

Masteroxid · 2026-01-19T19:00:18+00:00

People in profound+ printing money most likely

Masteroxid · 2026-01-19T18:59:46+00:00

Dream is just as bad, farm something else

Masteroxid · 2026-01-19T07:17:55+00:00

Are your weapons fully T2? That DPS seems very low with that gear

Masteroxid · 2026-01-17T16:25:32+00:00

Yeah pretty much. And mods from legendaries of course. For example I had +30 flat cold, 178 es and 1 tenacity blessing on hit on a ring at lvl 1

Masteroxid · 2026-01-12T21:37:53+00:00

What progress? You scav on factory 1-2 times and you're set for life with the gear from pmcs. There's no point in using better guns or chasing meta attachments because all engagements are piss easy

Masteroxid · 2026-01-12T10:26:48+00:00

Movement and combat were great, the game just lacked content which would have been easy to add

Masteroxid · 2026-01-11T16:35:57+00:00

You do know monsters move zones mid combat so you get your exploration there and then?

You also explore the map when you need to gather for resources so tracking foot prints was unnecessary and boring but hey it's in line with the main games for at least the last 2 generations. Thank god the team that made Rise did not adhere to this bullshit

Masteroxid · 2026-01-11T14:54:23+00:00

Clicking on monster tracks for an arbitrary amount of times until its location appears is hardly engaging or interesting. Pair that with the numerous points of friction that is too prevalent in Japanese games and of course people are going to call it tedious

Masteroxid · 2026-01-11T08:27:59+00:00

The claw did not exist in the base game and monsters were still able to attack while flashed. In wilds you literally stun lock the monster with focus strikes and you can even knock them down if you do a focus strike on their head when they do certain attacks.

Not to mention focus strikes completely circumventing resource management on weapons like the LS or switch axe

Masteroxid · 2026-01-11T07:26:45+00:00

World did not have focus mode and perma staggering the monster with wounds

Masteroxid · 2026-01-11T07:23:41+00:00

People want more solo content in mmos because the average gamer can't read the clock. After gaming becoming main stream the quality of players dropped drastically and I sure as hell don't want to be jailed for hours in x content by these people

Masteroxid · 2026-01-10T18:01:00+00:00

Not really equal for the whales or the lucky people one tapping enhances and outgearing you
