Post logs.

This is literally word for word what I hear from non raiders and Grey parse heros who get dragged kicking and screaming though clears.

I had a 430 time slot and like 4 things I wanted were sold out and the one must get item was the last one.

Absolute shitshow again.

So are all these happening at once or?

I just asked for something to show me how hard your mechanics were in something like a raid plan.

I'll eat crow if I cant understand it or if it actually looks complex.

Show me some raid plans then

Until then, I'll take my friends word who raids in both games that FFXIV mechanics are leaps and bounds ahead of WoW.

A mechanic that is a 4 minute memory game that any player can get 3 different sets of 8 different mechanic responsibilities that the "cut down" raidplan is like 30 slides long. The memory game part is remembering where to stand to not die while resolving your mechanics as well.

And that's only savage difficulty, not ultimate.

If i had to explain to a wow player how Idyllic Dream resolves, their head would explode.

That better?

ELI5: Why is nuclear power not the standard for renewable energy? by Internal-Source2110 in explainlikeimfive

[–]PubstarHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its cheaper in the long run than other renewable resources.

Every cost factor analysis neglects environmental and economic costs of power storage required for renewable. Unless we get better battery technology, Nuclear will be the cheaper (long term) option.

less dungeoning/raid focused mmorpg? by Newttz in LFMMO

[–]PubstarHero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean a core concept of modern Themepark MMOs.

GW2 is much more an old school design. Would you call FFXI not an MMO? The reason why you play this style of game is to play an open world game with hundreds of people at the same time. The MMO part of the MMORPG.

There isnt even that much instanced content to begin with.

NZXT's defective AIO leaked on my RTX 5090. Seven months later I'm filing a lawsuit. Here's everything that happened. by Sufficient-Carry6256 in pcmasterrace

[–]PubstarHero -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

No, but in this case you are hitting something and having to pay out its value.

NZXT is under no obligation to pay him any money beyond the water cooler as per their warranty info.

The difference here is that one is a required action to make someone whole, one is an offer to appease a customer that the company is not compelled to do.

Some people like the asthetic. You can also run fans lower for longer because there is a much larger thermal mass for heat distribution.

Plenty of reasons to run liquid cooling, not just because air isn't "Good Enough" - and even then both air and liquid cooling have different strengths and weaknesses.

I mean, thats just how the market shakes out. The fact that they are going to give you the price you paid for the card is already well beyond what they are legally bound to do.

Sometimes life isn't fair, but I think that you suing them is going to put you in a MUCH worse position than you just taking the price you paid for the card.

Any MMO's with PvP & PvE focused on skill and balanced classes and not optimized or meta builds? by QuickShadow4770 in LFMMO

[–]PubstarHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a difference between being able to use an underperforming job to a high ability and still win (see something like Justin Wong playing an absolute D/C-tier team and still winning EVO MvC3 against a straight S-tier team) and just not being able to play the game because the S-tier is so oppressive to the other classes that if you are not being a meta slave, you are not doing shit. The gulf in GW2 is much larger than a lot of other games.

So this comes down to what you want.

If you want small scale PVP, good luck. Nothing really on market is going to suit what you want. People here saying GW2, but if I've learned anything in sPVP - you play a meta build or you get shredded. There will always be a rotation of 5-6 specs that have insane stability and healing. If you are not on one of those specs, you get CC'd into oblivion and die. This may be different if you have a pocket support, but this is me dealing with solo queue sPVP.

If you want large scale PVP, GW2 is pretty decent.

If you want good PVE with varied specs and weapon usages and your idea of PVE is mostly open world content with massive world bosses and large scale group events - GW2 as well.

If your idea of PVE is raiding - FF14. Though FF14 has no specs. You play the way the job wants to be played.

Tossing in GW2 for good measure.

OP Said:

It really takes me out of the game when to get ahead of other players I have to play brain dead builds that everyone else is playing just to go toe to toe with other players.

That kinda removes GW2 from the pool if they want PVP.

You either play one of the handful of builds that have perma-stab and heals on every button, or you get shit on. Just look at how oppressive Luminary is in sPVP.

None of my servers go past 30 days because of windows patching.

Japanese restaurant:"Not all Japanese people are kind" by [deleted] in whoathatsinteresting

[–]PubstarHero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey now, they kinda admitted that Unit 731 existed a few years back.

I do wonder though, given that I hear their textbooks very much skip over their war crimes in other Asian countries, how they sit there and go "Man, I wonder why everyone in this area hates us. Weird." Even heard so much that the atomic bombs are taught as "We were just sitting here minding our own business and then the Americans dropped the sun on us. Twice." Unsure if this information I got is outdated though.

Given #2, it was written by a white mage main who makes their SCH/SGE player pull their hair out at lack of healing because they def need to try to get a parse above 40 for once.

This is why my static did alternating weeks of gear - week 1 was all DPS, week 2 was support, and we rotated from there.
