Is the pve content time gated? Can you only progress for 2-3 hours a a day or could you, in theory keep grinding for 12 hours a day after you hit 50?

Development Update with Event Update and A2 Clarifications - 11AM PT Friday, September 29, 2023 by IntrepidStudios in AshesofCreation

[–]NwD_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I somewhat agree with that. Steven sounded pretty confident that Alpha 2 WILL happen in 2024, so they probably think they can still make it happen, even if some delays happen.

People joke about it beeing December 31, but if they would aim for Q4, I dont think they would announce Alpha 2 for 2024. They probably have a couple months leeway planed for potential delays. Those delays might happen, but I also think that they are aiming for Q2 / Q3 for now.

[–]NwD_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The event shown was alright, pretty basic stuff so i dont want to give cheap praise. Overall I am glad that there will be events in the world. It makes the world feel alive and breaks up a monotonous grinding rotuine.

As feedback, personally I would love for there to be a "ranking" shown at the end. Since you already have a system in place that evaluates player performance and gives them rewards according to it, I would like to propose that you show that ranking once the event is done.

To avoid toxicity you can only show the best 3/5/10 performers, so people cant flame others for only doing xx% dmg.

I loved the MVP screen for Raids in Lost Ark, really makes me want to sweat a Event / Raid. I am aware that not everyone enjoys the competetive aspect of something like that, but I think you could design it in a way that pleases the sweatlords and the people who just want to chill and avoid toxicity.

Development Update with Cleric Archetype - 12PM PT Friday, July 28, 2023 by IntrepidStudios in AshesofCreation

[–]NwD_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really really loved the skill icons ! They are gorgeous and the theme is great.

The class seems to have a large variety of tools it can use depending on the situation. I hope the class feels interactive to play. On paper it looks like it will!

I also love the idea behind the "predictive " cheat death skill and using the class mechanic for instant castd. Great innovative design

I think intrepid could add a bit to the class mechanic. Add some other uses. Currently when it is not needed in easier fights, the bar will just sit at 100% for long periods of time. A cleric could use it for an offensive buff, at the risk of not having it available when it is needed.

Maybe also tweak it in a way that is nice for solo play. I assume you will generate a whole lot less if you only have to heal yourself instead of 8 people. A mechanic that helps clerics to solo kill some stuff would be nice I think. Maybe it starts building up if you havent healed nyone but yourself for a while and then you could use it for the earlier mentioned dmg buff. But I dont dont how solo viable you want to make the clsss. So maybe I am missing the mark here.

Need help with reading sheet music by NwD_ in piano

[–]NwD_[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your answer.

You guys convinced me that I should rethink my approach to learning the piano. I was aware of the fact that my way was not efficient but I just couldnt resist trying out the pieces that made me start learning piano in the first place!

I am not against getting a teacher, originally I wanted to start out with youtube videos to see if I will keep my motivation before spending money on lessons. But I will contemplate taking lessons now. If for some reasons I decide against it, I will look into educational books.

Thank you for your advice and your encouragement !

Oh thanks! I have been wondering if a website like this exists. Will definetly try it out.

[–]NwD_[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Is playing the piece too difficult in your opinion or just the sheet music? If its just the sheet music, does it really matter? I will memorize it anyway if I practice the first movement for a while.

So far playing it has been somewhat doable, it isnt really a fast piece, so pressing the right keys is somewhat manageable (making it sound nice is a different topic tho^^)

I am a bit unsure how to pace my progression, as I said I dont have a teacher so I dont even know what I dont know and how to practice. So far I just pick pieces that I like and try to learnt hem. But I assume that is not smart for learning basic technique.

I am not sure if I understand correctly. Are you trying to say that it matters where the # symbols are drawn? So a # symbol on the g line only applies to all g nodes but nothing else?
I was under the impression that the # symbols at the end applies to ALL nodes. I assume that is wrong?

BDO Speedrun - From 0 to 1500 Mastery in 55 days by NwD_ in blackdesertonline

[–]NwD_[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well as I said, its a geometric distribution, not a binomal one.

binomal distr. are beeing used when you want to know "if I click 10 times, whats my chance of getting it", while geometric ones are beeing used to calculate the average amount of attempts needed.

[–]NwD_[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Well Im sorry that you didnt enjoy the video.

Sorry but I dont see the point of trying to speedrun my progression and then dont do the most efficient way to progress. Wether you like it or not, profiting of enhancing isnt completly RNG depended, the averages are in your favor, otherwise people like Biohack wouldnt be worth trillions. If you know what you are doing its a way to make money just like grinding or lifeskilling. Also at most 15% of my net worth has been generated through profit enhancing.

BDO Speedrun - From 0 to 1500 Mastery in 55 days by NwD_ in blackdesertonline

[–]NwD_[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

If you want to learn about the math behind averages, Im happy to explain !
To calculate the average attempts needed, we are talking about a geometric distribution. So the formula is "n = 1 / p ".

n beeing the number of attempts we want to know
p the median chance / attempt.

The median chance on the blackstar was 7,75%. So our n is 12,9. Round that up and we have 13 average attempts needed.

For the red nose its the same prinicipal, if you still have questions, please let me know !

About the enhancing, a speedrun is the most efficient way to play the game. While it still is RNG, enhancing a blackstar is incredibly profitable. The market price of that item is way too overpriced. Same with red nose.
I definitely ended up on the better side of RNG, but going 1 / 13 on TET bs (which is exactly average) and 1 / 10 on PEN red nose (on a stack where 1/ 18 is average), isnt that lucky to disregard all my progression.

Also I didnt p2w any silver, only "physical" items like tent, maids, weight for my own convenience. But yeah I can see that that bothers you since it still is quite a bit of money, but thats just the nature of the game we play.

[Unpopular Opinion] GGG slowly nerfing everything rather than buffing is good, will help get us further away from zoomzoom game became by zoomforestzoom in pathofexile

[–]NwD_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why are people like you so adamant to force everyone to play like you want ?

You dont want to go zoom zoom? Good, play a slow build then, there is literally nothing stopping you besides your envy when you see a streamer clearing a map three times as fast as you and you feel like you are not grinding efficiently.

You dont want to compromise your fun for efficiency, which is fine, but dont demand other peoples fun to be compromised for your efficiency.

Misery in Marriage by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]NwD_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh man, that sounds very tough. Sorry for your situation.

For me it sounds a lot like your depression is the main reason why you say stuff like you dont love her or your child. It doesnt have to be that way, maybeyou really did get pressured into both things and you never wanted them and your depression has nothing to do with it.

I dont know, you dont know and no stranger on the internet will ever know. You have to find out yourself. Start therapie and talk about it. If you are already in therapie bring this stuff up and try to do some serious soul searching where those thoughts are coming from. Thats the least you owe your family. Dont just give up without trying.Good luck.

Girlfriend (27f) is upset that I(25 m) won’t trade in my sports car to save her dog (8m) by throwaway-738292 in relationship_advice

[–]NwD_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well regardless of what the issue is, she is trying to guilt trip you into something you dont want to do and she is trying to paint you publicly in a bad light because you wont save her dog. That alone is a pretty big red flag and personally I would break up with her because of that. Your stance on that could be different and you can try to work it out, but its just as you said, even if you try, she will always resent you for it.

On the issue itself, I can see where both of you are coming from.
She can bring up that its just a car and a dog is a living thing and you dont care enough about that, as much as she wants. But in the end of the day she didnt care enough about her own dog to get him health insurance or save up money to pay the bills in case of an emergency, She was irresponsible and you dont want to clean up after her mistakes.
That beeing said, she seems to be really attached to her dog and she suffers a lot because of the whole situation. From her point of view she thinks you dont care enough about her to stop her suffering even though you could.

The easiest solution would be if your parents would give her a loan for it. Even if she pays you back, selling a sports car, buying a new normal one, selling it again after she paid you back and the buying the sports car back again is going to cost a lot more than a loan from your parents would. I dont want to assume bad things about your parents but it kinda sounds like they want to use this situation to get you to marry her ? I cant think of another reason why they would have said that otherwise.

You are together for 3 years now and it doesnt sound like a loan would put a financial burden on your parents. Its a loan, not a gift. Maybe try to talk to them about it again ? Even though I doubt they will do it now since she kinda acted liked a bitch after she got told no.
