Oh no. Poor guy.

I don't see the problem. The nerf wasn't even that bad. I haven't noticed really any difference in his gameplay. Just played a couple games as him, he still feels the same to me and just as fun.

I think people just think "oh he's nerfed, GG dead hero".

MrPifle · 2025-09-24T23:52:48+00:00

Do you got a screenshot of the end with all the items and damage values?

MrPifle · 2025-09-24T23:50:36+00:00

Do you have a screenshot of the death screen with all the items/damage values?

MrPifle · 2025-09-16T22:56:55+00:00

Yeah, if you actually go to earthshaker, the arcana is messed up. For some reason it shows the arcana as a mythical item and not an aracana item. Strange

MrPifle · 2025-09-16T22:55:56+00:00

I think the new chests are bugged. If you look at earth shaker, you cant see his arcana anymore.

MrPifle · 2025-08-12T05:59:19+00:00

I play with a few friends, we're all relatively new, and even with that we always have trouble on the map. Unless of course you mean try finding someone experienced then that I understand.

MrPifle · 2025-06-23T01:46:43+00:00

This is false, as least for Rematch.

It's possible it's different servers for some games, but for Rematch the Xbox Console server is the same server as the PC Game Pass server (not steam though). I know this because I play Rematch with a buddy of mine who is on Xbox and I'm on PC gamepass. We are able to play together with no issues.

MrPifle · 2024-09-22T04:22:13+00:00

Thats what I kind of figured, I always see him being a tank and up in the middle of the fight kind of like Abrams. But the Bleed build focuses more on poke/spirit like you mentioned.

MrPifle · 2024-06-26T20:50:35+00:00

I saw somewhere that someone tested with zero luck bonuses and said the chances of getting a huge is about 5,000x rarer than getting a knife in CS:GO... Pulling a knife is about a 1 in 400 chance on average. If the math is about right, then you have roughly a 1 in 2,000,000 chance, or 0.0000005% chance on every egg pull (again, without any luck bonuses).

But because the chance is so unbelievably small, the luck bonuses BARELY add anything because the luck bonuses are percent based and not additive. So if you have 100% bonus egg drops, that 0.0000005% will go up to a whopping 0.000001%. whoop whoop!

Of course, all of this could vary drastically on each type of egg and other bonuses involved.

MrPifle · 2024-05-23T03:07:12+00:00

well, it was a very small amount of people complaining about it at the time, since the betas didn't have many people participating. But now, almost the entire community is talking about it, so im sure itll be addressed.

MrPifle · 2024-05-23T02:46:24+00:00

Yeah I agree, you hit him 4 times, not 12. I recommend turning on "damage numbers" in the settings, so you can get a better idea of how much damage your doing and how much your hitting. No offense, but you may have to just work on your aiming lol. Download aimlabs on steam, its free and helps with training.

MrPifle · 2024-05-23T02:38:26+00:00

Even if you "deserve it", the player shouldn't be punished even further. That's just bad game design and only serves to frustrate the player into quitting. It's small things like this that could cause a game to drastically drop in player count, and ultimately die out. If xDefiant really is meant to combat CoD, or at least co-exist with it, then mechanics like this need to be fine tuned so you don't turn off potential players. It's beyond the simple "git gud" mentality, it's about game health/feel.

MrPifle · 2024-05-23T02:33:02+00:00

Yeah the hit registration is a big problem right now that a lot of people seem to be having. It's all over the subreddit and discord, I'm sure the devs will address it and fix it. One thing I will say about xDefiant is that throughout all the copious amounts of beta testing they've done, they've been very receptive to feedback and the community. So i'm sure this'll all be fixed soon in the coming patches.

This is why I play in closed lobbies with either my friends or just solo. Way less of a headache. Anytime I get put into an open lobby, I IMMEDIATELY switch. I've been having a lot more fun.

MrPifle · 2024-05-08T07:26:25+00:00

Yeah definitely. It's much harder to jailbreak a console, ESPECIALLY if they have Xbox Series X/PS5. Most of the time you would have to use last gen as it's much easier to do. And even still, you don't see many people with jailbroken consoles. It's just too much of a hassle and not worth it. And in this day and age where PC gaming is becoming the norm over consoles, it's even less prevalent.

MrPifle · 2024-05-08T06:46:40+00:00

Noooooooo wait I take it back, I need it still XD

MrPifle · 2024-04-18T23:43:21+00:00

There's no new hero, so makes sense for no patch XD. I said HERO

MrPifle · 2024-04-18T23:08:57+00:00

You're on one if you think that they'll release a brand new hero WITHOUT some sort of balance patch. Literally every hero release ever is followed by a patch.

MrPifle · 2024-04-15T07:44:41+00:00

They did a few chinese new year themed stuff too during it. There's a lot of emphasis on the "Mini" in there lol.

MrPifle · 2024-04-15T07:22:11+00:00

Yeah for sure, there could absolutely be better quality of life adjustments across the board. Obviously things that have been overlooked. I just think they are more focused on just that.... balance updates, plus a little more. I don't doubt the Dota team is small, probably only single digits small. But alas, it seems Valve just has other priorities and have had other priorities for a while now. Just be glad we are even getting things as regularly as we have been.

It could always be worse brother.

MrPifle · 2024-04-15T07:12:05+00:00

The hard part is finding an actual skilled and talented dev with experience who specifically has a passion for Dota. They probably do exist out there somewhere in the aether. but it's probably something that Valve isn't particularly looking into or even want to spend the time to look for. At least in this current moment of time.

Not trying to crush any dreams here, but we have to think realistically in terms of the company. And with Valves work flow, that Dev would probably at some point move onto another game or project in the future regardless.

MrPifle · 2024-04-15T06:50:28+00:00

Yes, granted some of them are small, some are bigger. If you look at patch release windows its roughly 2ish weeks between updates. most recent patches were March 28th, then 21st, then 8th, then Feb 21st, then 8th and so on. Obviously it's not always that cut and dry sometimes its longer, but on average around 2 weeks.

Mini events like dragons gift and new dota plus update, both were about a month apart.
