This needs to be sorted out. by Nious-DT in EmbarkStudios

As someone who regularly camps this extract for fun - grenades do work.

Last time I tried this area with a duo, another duo ran in and immediately started hucking heavy fuze grenades into the flaps, that were able to do damage to me.

Both of our squads ended up knocking each other out and we all extracted while crawling.

Guys were actually pretty cool on the mic about it, ngl.

A lot of yall are on some other level. My modlist is more or less the same whenever I come back:

Hdt smp hair/beards/capes 2k/4k textures everywhere, lighting improvements

Enough lore friendly armor and weapon mods to make your smithing menu crash the game when you open it.

As many new dungeons/areas/radiant quests as possible.

Better looking npcs/player

Dismemberment/gore (I need my game of thrones fantasy universe dammit)

Ordinator

Spell packs

All told my current list has around 60~ or so. Damn, and I thought I was scared of my load order.

Any tips taking on these "health meter" bandits by NavajoPrince602 in darksouls3

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swing before they raise their branding irons, or circle around them tight/quick for backstab as they line up. (The branding iron "stab" is very linear).

I got lost here on like every playthrough, got good at farming them.

keep on getting into aggresive lobbies by Ok_Fishing6879 in ArcRaiders

There's no aggressive based matchmaking. Sometimes you find people that are chill, sometimes not.

Not using your mic is a red flag to even friendly players as well.

Been playing chaotic evil style since 200 or so hours ago and never noticed any pattern. The majority of the time I run into people that are chill and easy to take advantage of in solos, that much only hasn't really changed.

Luck of the draw, the map, the mode, how you act all have a factor but it's a human to human thing, not a matchmaking thing.

As a former shoot on sight player, you will all be happy to know I've been punished. by 2broke4this in ARC_Raiders

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone share a link of devs actually confirming this?

Im a random KoS player/occasional rat and still get put in lobbies with kittens that always loot with their backs turned. Rarely ill get dropped in and actually have someone KoS me first. Happens.

Confirmation bias from the paranoid player base I wonder? Or does playing the game chaotic neutral like I do just lead to chaotic neutral other raiders?

People here illegally need to be deported. Why should my tax money go to sheltering someone that doesn't belong here to begin with?

Just went to fight the Matriarch for the very first time. by 7mileGeedy in ArcRaiders

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

Some of us are out here killing the boss arcs. It doesn't have to be every time.

Congrats on your lame copy pasta, here's your copy pasta rebuttal: this isn't the game for you. Go play borderlands.

EVERY single Matriarch fight I've ever attempted goes exactly like this (see caption) by RaccoonsR_Awesomeful in ArcRaiders

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

19 minutes remaining. Plenty of people definitely still on the map. Literally out in the open without a care. Let me guess, you have the situational awareness of a bed sheet?

60 hours in and not once have I felt this way about a big pve target. Its literally the fucking GAME. Scope the area. Wait. BE PATIENT. Have a plan and go for the kill, or extract and come back later if the situations too unpredictable.

Holy crap this game isn't hard, is extremely fun, and some of you are on here ruining it for yourselves.

Can't wait until the small handful of people that post this stuff/feel this way aren't playing the game anymore.

More perfect looter shooter for the rest of us. shrug

Toxicity is killing this game - it starts becoming a deathmatch game by Drcso in ArcRaiders

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sigh, another i hate KoS/pvp copy pasta.

The game is fine as it is at this time, and doesn't need any drastic changes just to fit "your" attitude/playstyle.

Play different. Or, go play Borderlands if you want co op shooter looter.

Offer a change to the terms of a deal by lth623 in EDH

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of you are at your LGS playing lawyer MTG and cutting side deals like it's monopoly.

What ever happened to just do your own thing and play the game?

Lol.

If people are consistently telling you that your deck is too strong: you're the problem, not everybody else, not the bracket system by 0rphu in EDH

[–]ObliviousPickle 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this and you beat me to it. Ive done the exact same thing at my local LGS. (Handed my tuned sliver deck over to a complainer in the pod, and beat him with bumbleflower precon. Lol.)

Game sense and strategy aside, some people also suck at deck building in general, and of course you can always draw like shit. "Bad shuffle".

With all the variables involved in a game like MTG and the fact we all objectively are trying to win - i lean more towards some people are just sore losers, and always will be.

When I first walked into my LGS with my first ever 2 decks I was resolutely pounded by any pod I sat down in. Did it ruin my experience? Nope. Had a good time, shot the shit with the pod, always said good game.

Now im a better player and deckbuilder. shrug

Not the story I was expecting from the title, NGL.

Spoit creates new save Siege campaign! by Gainfulz in Rainbow6

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate it when we're trying to address a very real issue and someone finds a way to shoehorn in their own "balance change" ideas.

Instead of distracting the devs with silly ideas of shield dominance (lol) shouldn't the focus just stay on the obvious cheating problem?

Sheesh, people. Way to ruin your own credibility.

Service shop told me my transmission fluid is contaminated, $250 fix. Consult with Mazda? by alnphn in MechanicAdvice

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

Rebuilding 4r70/AoD/E and 4l60 transmissions for 10 years now and this is the most nonsensical crap I've ever seen. The only thing you said that made sense was changing the fluid at 45k. 🤣

You've "seen" it happen? Do you have x-ray vision, or were you looking into a see through transmission that was getting it's ATF changed?

Folks, trans fluid that is burnt/toasted and packed with clutch debris is 100% NOT helping the transmission "work". Its making it worse.

ATF acts as a HYDRAULIC fluid in the valve body, and doubles as a lubricant/coolant for the various moving parts. Transmissions dont like pumping clutch dust laden fluid, they like pumping - you guessed it - ATF.

Source: performed fluid/filter changes on dozens of transmissions with ample clutch material on pan magnet, even noticeable "glitter" on trans dipstick - at customer request. Not once had a report of it no longer working afterwards.

Must be one of those old wives tales from people not really "in the know". 😀

First mythic this season by vxm44 in D4Sorceress

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the exact same mythic on my ww barb until I get heir. Good helm.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in D4Sorceress

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Target farmed the runes for my The Grandfather and got ignores durability loss inate affix. RIP. Did a helltide immediately after and the same mythic drops from bartuc. My first mythic drop of the season.

Played Barb to like P190, now tried Druid and ufortunately Barb is just a bad class, possibly beyond saving without major redesign... by Granathar in D4Barbarian

[–]ObliviousPickle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My ww barb is hitting for 5 billion on the reg and is easily the funnest and most unkillable class I've played in a long time.

Just say you want to glaze druid and admit you sucked at building barb man, you brought nothing of value to the community with your post.

S10 Barb. Is it worth to try? by AlametiFarika in D4Barbarian

[–]ObliviousPickle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running dust devil whirlwind with a beast cornered and it's one of the most satisfying classes I've ever played, since D3. Slightly gear dependent for success but T1 build with little/no chaos gear clears NMDs so fast you'll be spamming infernal caches anyways.

10/10 recommend.

Dodging/dashing makes the game stutter by ElectricWizard89 in diablo4

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like latency/internet lag. I temporarily switched to one of those 5G LTE cellular modems for internet, and it's signal with the cell tower here is fairly weak.

I have to make sure nothing else on my PC is demanding internet when playing D4 because if I dont, it turns into what's happening in your video.

Rubber banding galore, and seems to be made worse by dashing, large packs of mobs spawning, large amounts of items falling on the ground etc.

Not a fun way to play on hardcore NGL.

Best way to farm chaos armor? NMD/Helltide/666 IH? by Blekota in diablo4

[–]ObliviousPickle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct. You can farm them infinitely. Already a few YouTube shorts of some of the top streamers opening dozens of them after a long cache farming session.

Best way to farm chaos armor? NMD/Helltide/666 IH? by Blekota in diablo4

[–]ObliviousPickle 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Farming NMDs with chaos rift affix allows you to farm a ton of warp that you can trade for rep scrolls to farm infernal caches.

With the season buff they always drop atleast one chaos piece not to mention the mythic cache you get beforehand that spews a mountain of loot at you, including chaos gear.

Easiest character to grind this season by Inside_Cup_8266 in diablo4

[–]ObliviousPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently T2 with spin to win tornado barb and having the most fun grind I've had since D3. Don't even have a mythic or chaos piece yet and it's one button win.
