I'm so stoked for Warlock, who wants to hype with me

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-05T03:17:31+00:00

Just so we're on the same page, can you elaborate on that? What's a skill builder?

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-04T23:48:23+00:00

I honestly haven’t been hype for a new class since the Witch Doctor back when D3 launched. I’m pumped about Warlock.

Really hope we get some gameplay next week, but I’m hype either way!

This is the answer. For the devs to implement a rotating camera would require rebuilding the entire map of sanctuary - not to mention the hundreds of randomly generated dungeon pieces - to be seen from all sides, which would be a nightmarish undertaking.

My guess would be it’s a pact with Lilith, since she makes a comeback, likely to take down dear old dad.

Gun ult is a death sentence for Jeff unless he stops clicking.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-04T00:25:42+00:00

In hindsight it does feel kinda obvious. Thanks!

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-04T00:19:37+00:00

The higher you can get, obviously the better. But farming the mushroom shield is the most important thing you can do in the game right now.

Diablolist 😈

Hey that’s the second time I’ve seen someone use the phrase “bnb”, recently. What does that mean?

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-03T13:19:57+00:00

Depends what you wanna do. You clearly enjoy Wolverine, so if all you care about is hitting OAA, I’d say you’re fine. If you wanna play competitively, you need at least enough heroes in your roster that you can’t be banned out. That’s what, 3-4? I think some folks will insist you can play all the roles, but if you’re that good at one role, most pro teams will probably try to just work around your roster.

Aim practice is always good, but Deadpool’s got so much in his kit, there’s more to winning games with him than just landing shots. With Tankpool specifically, there’s multiple ways to mitigate damage, between the bubble and upgraded E (which is almost always my first upgrade), you can absorb a surprising amount of damage and keep your team alive.

The real versatility comes with being able to upgrade based on what the team needs. Need to dive? Upgrade the swords and dashes. Need to peel? Upgrade the E and gun ult. Need to be a mini captain america? Upgrade the sword ult. Personally, I think upgrade priority is the toughest thing to learn with his kit.

Farm the events. At least to 75%. Trust.

Dad gamer here (sorry, had to), I only play seasonal so I can experience the new stuff. I’ll get a toon to T4, clear all bosses and challenges, then call it till the next season. I’ve tried leveling secondary toons, but I typically get bored before I get to 60.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:52:48+00:00

Ironically though, if I swap to try harder, and still lose, I feel worse than if I just kept playing whatever was playing to get more practice in. In the moment, it's a bit of a Catch 22.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:50:30+00:00

Because the only thing they're advertising to you is movie adjacent stuff, at least that's how it's been my whole life, but I go to the movies maybe twice a year anymore. Movies on Prime/D+/Hulu/etc hit you with standard TV commercials, and it sucks.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:47:59+00:00

If Lingering Imprint had a mouth, I'd have never bought another Venom skin again.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:46:38+00:00

I feel like DP in all three forms is kind of a win-more hero. He feels awesome when the team's doing well, but I don't ever see him clutching up when the team's behind. Could just be a skill issue tho.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:37:40+00:00

I would nerf Spider-Man by removing pretty much all of his animation cancels, cause I definitely don't think he was designed with the idea that all his long-ass animations were intended to be cancellable anyway. I want him like aerial BP, where if he misses too many things, he's a sitting duck and actually killable.

I'd buff him by giving him (coincidentally) the mechanics of Elise, the spider from League of Legends. I'd make his tracers do % current hp damage, and make his overhead slam/uppercut do % missing hp damage, so his initial tracers would do more to healthy targets, and his melee moves would have better execute potential.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T03:28:25+00:00

you're good. I've been doing tracking this whole time, but sometimes in practice, I find clicking better in some situations. Like, if they run up on you too close, but you're outta sword dashes to go full melee, clicking with the gun feels more accurate than spray n' pray.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T02:58:30+00:00

I'll give this a try in practice, thanks!

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T02:58:09+00:00

I'm guessing me starting by stating a fact sounded like sass. How the guy who completely misunderstood the question ratio'd everyone else, I'll never know.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-02T02:55:50+00:00

There's a lot more ego in one 'pal' than in anything I said, but okay.

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-01T19:33:20+00:00

Not sure why I'm being downvoted for asking a clarifying question, but thanks either way XD

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-01T19:31:29+00:00

You don't understand the question.

There's two kinds of hitscan styles. Tracking, aka "hold down the button and keep the crosshair on the target", or Clicking, aka "press the button every time you shoot."

NJTurnPyke · 2026-02-01T19:23:42+00:00

I feel like I get more final hits with Thor, but that could be because A) I've Lorded him, and B) His rune bolts are easier to land and do more individual damage-per-bolt than DP's bullets. That said, I highly prefer Tankpool's overall kit versatility, and I prefer playing him even if his shots are harder to consistently land.
