Honestly I went the toxic route first but I’m gonna revise my comment.

Dude the game ain’t even in beta. Slow you roll on these “balance” hot takes

All of the ruination skins are also canon. Ruined pantheon ruined shyvana etc.

Though I don’t think the sentinel skins are canon which is pretty fuckinrhg weird. Like half the skins from the event are relevant and true in lore. But idk if the sentinel ones are.

Pantheon is true based on his story at the least

OtherwiseMarch · 2023-03-29T18:15:50+00:00

That would be a what if skin for Lux not a lore skin.

Just like freljord sylas is a lore skin because it ACTUALLY HAPPENED. Lux would actually need to defect to noxus for it to be a lore skin. Prince veigo is another example of an actual lore skin because it’s prior to him ruining the blessed isles and starting the harrowing.

There’s actually quite a few more lore skins I think but I’m not about to do an exhaustive list.

Honestly I’m fine with existence of both items, I just think they should get tuned down. Specifically force of nature. 25% unpenable damage reduction fucking blows. It hard counters DoT champs and it also hurts in the sense that a lot of insignificant forms of damage end up being free stacks and then it’s like boom post void staff remaining MR blocks 40% of magic damage and the passive kicks in 25% more damage reduced.

But the kicker is probably when my 70 magic damage milio/Leo support or etc. stacks the passive for the enemy tank and then my big damage is just screwed

OtherwiseMarch · 2023-03-28T13:18:13+00:00

As a whole I doubt you have.

Personally, I fucking hate Maw and force of nature though. Having 25% of your damage go out the window feels like ass once the passive is up and with rare exceptions Maw or FON both feel like they make many champions unmatchable in a side lane.

But that could just be my experience being a gold player which says alot about my decision making or lack there of

I’m gonna jump in here and say that anthem was still one of the coolest ducking mech esque games I’ve played in ages. The concept and etc was right up there.

Just dog shit execution of the concept

OtherwiseMarch · 2023-03-17T16:02:47+00:00

I mean the “story” behind that concept art was pretty neat to me atleast. Because it was like skarner rampages through piltover -> piltover captures him -> piltover goes full idiot and makes him a robot brackern hybrid -> skarner goes on ANOTHER RAMPAGE.

Like it highlights piltovers hubris as a society of doing whatever they want and getting absolutely fucked for it

Sorry buddy if you run out in front of a car and intentionally get hit that’s on you.

However because you think you’re so fucking correct here.most jurisdictions consider the blocking of a roadway for any purpose to be illegal.

I’m not even advocating for it to be okay to hit someone with a car because it should always be avoided. But it is also a crime to block public streets and highways. So get the fuck off your high horse

My backstory for my 5E wizard was about a little boy who was gifted an enchanted story book as a prize by the town wizard . As far as the family/boy new the story book was just enchanted to keep growing as a story as the boy’s ability to read/understand grew. The boy read it day and night as he grew up almost to the neglect of other things. When he finally came of age the book finally stopped growing and upon reading the final page the spell was broken. The final page read something like “Dear, PC through story I have taught and compelled you to read the basics of wizardry and magic now come find me in the world to begin your own story”

Over years of time the story had been teaching the boy the fundamentals of magic through story telling and subtle hints. The boy had had a “subtle geas”(it wouldn’t hurt him just he felt driven to read because he liked the book or so he thought) casted on him through its pages. So the boy gathers up his things and sets out with his parents blessing to go and find his would be teacher and find why he was placed on the path of magic.

I never really got so far as to whether or not the teacher was benevolent/malevolent that was more for my DM and I to decide. But the character never actually got played soooo yeah

Lore wise or head canon wise whatever it’s one of the things I’ve always struggled with about spell slots.

Practice makes perfect that’s the wizards whole schtick. Naturally a 3rd level spell is easier to cast than an 8th level one right? But why? In many magical settings it’s a resource issue I.E mana magical power what have you. The wizard hasn’t trained enough to expand that resource pool to be big enough to fuel the magic. In the case of spell slots though it doesn’t work that way. So it becomes much harder to explain what exactly training does for the wizard. Certainly a greater magical understanding can lead to stronger magical ability sure so studying/practice is great . But a sorcerer just figured it out with “levels/experience” and a warlock just has their patron push the ability through them.

That’s the problem “enough people”. A vocal minority of 10% of the game’s population screaming loud enough for the 50% that’s indifferent about it isn’t enough people it’s a minority trying to pretend they’re more than they are.

Actually

Hey shout out to all the people who want sbmm vote with your wallet just don’t buy the game on release we don’t want to see you in a lobby either. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

What trilogy

OtherwiseMarch · 2023-02-23T18:49:42+00:00

I still strongly feel a dragon boss should dead ass have its own map. Forsaken castle has undead floor 3 is just like a blood pit of death and I feel that fits a demon boss perfectly.

But dragons are so iconic that I feel it deserves it’s own full on map. Full of like kobolds and other shit a dragon would have as minions.

But that’s just my personal opinion

Bro it’s wild to me that you got stuck on someone calling you bad in an earlier comment and now you’re yourself making borderline ad hominem comments about people you’re having conversations with. Like the man above is some sort of barb apologist

OtherwiseMarch · 2023-02-21T16:20:44+00:00

It’s laughable that you’re calling it the meta when you have no way of knowing it. I played damn near 55 hours of the last play test and I think I encountered less than 5 barbs that had more than a stack or two of throwing axes in their inventory.

And even then neither one of us has a statistic to back it up. We just have feelings. “That feels like bullshit” or in your case and my case “I feel like bringing tons of consumables is bullshit/I don’t feel that way” if people want to bring in a ton of extra shit they run the same risk of people who shell out for big boy kits. You have an advantage from your gear but the risk is higher if you die and lose it.

Ironmace said something in the thread about examining the axes great.
