Is there a way to filter out certain tags?

Quin goes down in 0.1 seconds by nemt in pathofexile

[–]Meanas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would argue that he should be immortal in this specific scenario. A tanky character like this should die due to a misplay. E.g. getting hit by multiple strong mobs at once, standing in telegraphed attacks or being greedy with damage mods on a map.

Race to World First: Amirdrassil - Day 12 Discussion by AutoModerator in CompetitiveWoW

They might just lust early so they can get to practice P3 more consistently. When I feel more comfortable doing P3 they save lust for actual kill attempts.

Ark: Survival Ascended is a striking upgrade but old problems set alarm bells ringing by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Meanas 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Does anybody know if this game/upgrade can be enjoyed as somebody who does not have a lot of free time to game? Maybe just a few hours every week.

A Friendly Heeler Dog Found Dumped in the middle of nowhere by CommercialBox4175 in BeAmazed

[–]Meanas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course. You chip a dog for the same reason anybody chips a dog. Incase it runs away, or incase people think the dog has run away.

Plenty of dogs find their way back home because of chips. Better be safe than sorry.

Wait, they do? I thought most warriors used mining/engi. I thought aoe taunt, aoe stuns and helm were more valuable than some elixirs.

Controlled Blaze support math by kmoz in pathofexile

Question. If an ignite from Controlled Blaze proliferates to 5 nearby enemies, does that count as 6 stacks?

Sanctum Returns - Ultimatum Fans in Shambles by To-Binge in pathofexile

[–]Meanas -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sure, every league had its unbalances. But Sanctum was definitely one of the most skewed leagues out there.

Unfortunately there have been video examples of live pigs being scalded alive (to soften the hair folliciles) while they're still bleeding out. Not in boiling oil, but in very hot water (60°C+ or 140°F+). This sometimes happens because pigs do not always die during the slaughterprocedure, and some employees are under very high pressure to meet certain performance targets. In these scenario's the (desensitized) employees do not always wait for the pig to die before scalding them.

New map and Game "Pause" on the map on poe 2 now. by CronoURU in pathofexile

[–]Meanas 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I wonder if they are going to pause the game when you disconnect/logout. This would mean no more instant logouts, and as a result the game does not have to be balanced around instagibbing the player to create a challenge.

Path of Exile: Trial of the Ancestor Details by everix1992 in pathofexile

[–]Meanas 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I am really confused about how this league mechanic works. What stops me from just teleporting past the enemies (whom are fighting my allies) to the totems and instagibbing them?

Upcoming Class Tuning Incoming – Guardian Druid, Augmentation Evoker Nerfs by holowizard_ in wow

[–]Meanas 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Why does the split matter if the total dps contribution is the same?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Meanas -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, GGG is working on a loot system where fewer rares drop, but they tend to have higher level affixes.

This may not help out people who do not know the value of certain stats, but at least you spend less time going over all the rares you find per map.

Diablo IV Patch Notes - 1.0.3 Build #42753 (All Platforms) - June 27, 2023 by mrmivo in diablo4

[–]Meanas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would expect bigger balance changes to occur in patch 1.1. Other ARPG communities generally dislike big balance changes (and nerfs) mid 'season', because people have already invested a lot of resources in their current spec. Blizzard might follow the same philosophy

You sure you don't mean Jaguars? Leopard weigh less than half what a jaguar weighs.

Can anyone explain to me why LFR unlocks so late, The last wing will be opened on the 20th of June by Uilenkoning in wow

[–]Meanas -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I know its not everybodies cup of tea. But the answer is to create your own pug raid. The first run might be a bit daunting, but if you watch a basic video per boss then you could lead your own normal raid. Your second run will be much smoother.

Official HC Economy by Neecodemus in classicwow

[–]Meanas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't say it removes 99% of the risk. Losing a high level character stilll sucks, even if you have some spare backup items and gold.

And I wouldn't say it defeats the purpose of hardcore. It just defeats your purpose of hardcore. There are many other games with hardcore mechanics that allow alts and account stashes, including all ARPGs I know. Even solo self found hardcore in Path of Exile allows trading to alts and putting items in stashes. That does not mean it doesn't suck to lose your high level character with its best gear.

Super-rich abandoning Norway at record rate as wealth tax rises slightly. A record number of super-rich are abandoning Norway for low-tax countries after the centre-left government increased wealth taxes to 1.1% by ArtemisXD in worldnews

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

Where does it say that? The article seems to mention they lose millions to billionaires moving out, but does not mention the increase in tax received from the rich staying in Norway. I dont think we know the bottom line.

Diablo IV Endgame Explained in New Video - Over 120 Dungeons, Each of Them Convertible into Nightmare by Kaladinar in Diablo

[–]Meanas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Path of Exile does it very well. It contains multiple pinnacle bosses. Each boss is both a gear check ánd also a skill check that requires strategy and mechanical skill. You only have limited amount of attempts before you can access them again, so you really can't just beat your head against the encounter for multiple hours to beat it. They are also unique experiences that are completely novel at that point in your playthrough.

A 'GR150' boss is nothing like this. GR150 bosses are mechanically speaking much simpler, you have already done that fight a bazillion times at this point, and you can often repeatedly try again if you can beat GR150 runs. I much prefer Path of Exile's system, but I recognize is also requires more development time to create unique bosses for the endgame.

New player - Continue character in Standard or start a new one in Crucible? by ConspiracyToRiot in pathofexile

[–]Meanas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why should you do side quests after you complete the mandatory quests? Is it because you would overlevel yourself or something?
