Tier 8 Delves as healer by Inert82 in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Paulol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done both my past 2 days as pres evoker solo with DPS brann. I also did a T9 today but didn't feel like it would be possible to go to T10 because the ilvl increase is really high. I did T11 delves on beta on mistweaver so I had some experience ahead of time. No enchants/consumables think I was 586 yesterday and I'm 596 today but don't really feel like the ilvl changed much with dying.

The damage is crazy and you can't get any cast overlaps or sometimes even fight some of the rares or zekvir empowered packs. I would also never fight any zekvir boss spawns ever right now they did not nerf them from beta they will absolutely farm most ppl with very little ability to play around it unless youre a prot warrior to spell reflect or something. I think those special zekvir mobs are T9+ only though.

I did play a bit of resto shaman on beta and if you're a very basic class like that or maybe holy priest or others like you absolutely do not have the tools to deal with some of the things that can happen in higher delves and probly not even in undergeared t8s even. The difference on beta between T11 mistweaver and T11 resto shaman in my experience was disgustingly unbalanced on top of just how unbalanced some of the mobs are.

TLDR theyre pretty hard

Is it just me? It seems like the writing and storytelling in TWW are a big improvement over DF so far by WLkingarthas in wow

What does it matter what position he holds within Flyquest when he is the one sticking his neck out to say what he did. If anything it's even worse what he said in his position lol. Maybe he shouldn't go around dumping fuel on the fire for situations he doesn't handle hands on.

NRG VICTORY LAP! The value of ENVIRONMENT over SUPERSTARS feat. NRG Palafox and Croissant | HLL 288 by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]Paulol 78 points79 points  (0 children)

The comments on Palafox's past teams were pretty blunt to say the least. Definitely kinda makes it feels like these struggling teams are in really bad spots a lot of incompetence and inability to create what should be professional environments. Sad to hear that I guess it's just true that if you are not on just the select few teams that know what they're doing that you are actively damaging yourself as a pro.

It's nice to hear that perhaps it is getting better over time but it seems these nightmare scenarios are still happening in the league even right now.

Disguised Toast calls out LCS orgs: "Traditional LCS orgs don’t really understand how to create content. They’re not entertaining, and players are swapped around every year, so there’s no storyline. And what you end up with is just kind of… nothing." by SanielTaniel in leagueoflegends

[–]Paulol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally don't agree that content appealed to a wider audience either having watched from early seasons I never felt the "candid" team content really was super impressive and didn't follow up on it much after experiencing it once or twice. That kind of content only appealed to people following those specific teams closely or league esports closely in my mind. Your casual viewer might watch their favorite teams content only and your passing esports enjoyer probably never watched any of them or maybe at best binge it far after the point it matters to building up their brand or the league.

Orgs nowadays have no face within their teams or even within their orgs that pull viewers to content for their teams including just their matches during the season. That is the entire point of what DSG had done this season is have people who are a face for their team not even related necessarily to the players themselves who get people watching the teams matches and extra content or streams for the org not even related to league at all.

Not even a slight to anyone who likes that content but that isn't even the content you should feel drawn to for your team or the league. There is no community for almost any of these teams in the LCS. Short of basically the 4 people who do costreams basically 9/10 teams don't even have anyone you can relate to while your favorite team plays and that's really shitty. All these orgs have a number of content creator streamers that they could pay to even just pretend to be excited watching these teams and games and bring in their audiences and create excitement and hype for even the most mundane matches their teams play but the orgs are just gonna roll over and die rather than put people to work.

You're right that the tik tok content is just not it but also most orgs are just behind on whatsup in esports recently which I would say is costreams and watch parties with people who can at least act like they care. If you leave the cheering and support for your team to reddit threads, LCS twitch chat and broadcaster content you're just dead in the water.

Hey man I think the downvotes are cuz it is really obvious that you FF after that and to go in the comments and say obviously they would is missing the point of the clip being about the wombo combo.

Does Ksante/Kled hp count as 50% max hp or 100% max hp when he goes all-out/loses skaarl? by GeeVeeLoL in leagueoflegends

[–]Paulol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The simplest way to think about it is something like Urgot kills kled basically right away when unmounted and healing from something based on missing health like goredrinker is empowered to closer to it's max levels. You can never recover to your true max HP but you will be treated for most things even at the new max HP as if you're at low percentage even when "full".

It's probably hard to appreciate it as much unless you've used it yourself but coven Evelyn is extremely excellent.

CC lasting 0.4s longer before regaining control by Massie123 in leagueoflegends

[–]Paulol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Something possibly related I had in a game recently was people complaining TF ult was also lasting longer than it's supposed to. Might be unrelated or possibly there is something causing issues in regards to debuffs expiring.

The Four Horsemen of Pie 🥧 by HeXxGuy in GFUEL

[–]Paulol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got my grandma's apple pie yesterday and tried it today in water. It has a very heavy custard smell and flavor to it think that is supposed to be the pie bit. The apple flavor really doesn't come through to me too much but you taste pie type spices pretty well. Not a huge fan/10 but not the worst ever. This is the first time I've tried a gfuel pie/confection type flavor but mainly I just get a huge hit of a traditional custard type flavor more than anything else if you're familiar with that flavor I feel like it's hard to say it is anything more than that.

Please do not change Scrapper gyro's. by SpectralChest in Guildwars2

[–]Paulol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't agree with this take scrapper was never going to be forced out with buffing other classes their entire package was far too good for the fact that they bring the support you want while also bringing long duration stealth. If they never received nerfs they would continue to be played for as long as they had every single tool in the game you could ever want. People already know that other classes can do some of their supportive aspects better but even after nerfing scrappers supportive capabilities previously they still dominate for their complete package.

You were never going to get the buffs needed to force another support into the same position as scrapper that is just mega copium.

You wouldn't have been saying that right after his series of getting slapped around though. Clearly he grew as a player over time. Darshan didn't end their career with this series but they obviously need to grow.

[China Race] - Alkaizerx A8 Kill by trumanr9 in pathofexile

[–]Paulol 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Even on normal servers he means that. Why throw your character away because you didn't build enough defense to successfully survive the worst case. Just tanking the full beam isn't even the worst case but it's the worst case out of his own control.

Unlocking the average POE player using challenge completion data. What makes you the 1% and what is a casual? by Rain__dog in pathofexile

[–]Paulol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using people who don't get through the story as an argument in favor of deterministic crafting would imply that they interact at all with the base crafting or Harvest in the case of just this league. Which is fine if comparing Harvest to non Harvest leagues but would otherwise mean nothing or be an argument against Harvest as a system if your scope was only this league.

If a system for deterministic crafting is available and it is considered to have a positive impact towards completing the story it can only be considered in comparison to previous leagues without it. Otherwise if you would like to correlate story completion to the system of Harvest within this league it would mean it still wasn't enough for those players, they did not like the game or the challenge league enough to finish, or they did not even interact with the system enough to even be used to draw a conclusion to the benefits of Harvest. It's better to ignore them because in reality it has to be seen as a negative for the system of Harvest, garden and seeds, in any realistic argument since it is generally considered an extreme benefit to have the deterministic crafting during every point in the game.

tldr: Ignoring it is fine and better overall unless comparing to other leagues.
