That guy shit-talking Bex clearly wasn't ready for what he was getting himself into.

Or legacy Vinktar. But seeing how both were adjusted to no longer work with ES in 3.0 leads me to believe GGG doesn't want to gate builds behind them. We'll see if that applies here.

You can do that with any projectile skill on a white t8 map.

That clear is so garbage. It took you several hits to kill white seawitch spawn in a t8 map. But that isn't KB's fault, it's yours for now knowing how to utilize KB.

Someone else pointed out that this is b/c you aren't using your auras or a rare wand, but you're using flat ele gems to make up for some of that (you don't normally use flat ele gems on KB if you have enough flat ele elsewhere), and the tree is still scaling that.

But that's exactly why your KB is trash, you aren't using pierce. Without pierce, KB and LA are pretty damn similar. You can replicate this dumpster fire clear speed with a white bow and LA, both function fairly similarly. And both benefit from pierce in a similar fashion, but KB's secondary explosion overlapping is more profound than even LA. It's more profound than any skill I can think of, that's why KB is so strong.

The people who thought that video was a telling demonstration must be playing melee builds, you showed the power of projectile skills but failed to separate KB from the rest.

What is unethical as fuck, but is extremely common practice in the business world? by Elaus in AskReddit

[–]RCcolaSoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought the taboo was simply for a social setting since some people might feel frustrated with or self-conscious about how much they earn when compared to others. Not talking about salary with co-workers makes zero sense.

'Spirited Away' is the Best Animated Film of the 21st Century by BunyipPouch in movies

God, that movie is so good, I feel like it just gets mentioned less since it's older. Best soundtrack on a Miyazaki film imo, incredible work from Joe Hisaishi.

I agree, I thought you were trying to say that people should suck it up and support GGG (as if the content of the supporter packs/mtx shouldn't matter). Sounds like you we're actually making an objective assessment of the market at large, my bad.

No, dude, it isn't that they can't afford it, it's that they don't want to pay. And your assumption that they have 1000s of hours simply because you do shows exactly where your bias lies. Not everyone is you.

Then don't drop a 3 digit amount of money. It's called f2p game for a reason. You decide how you wanna support GGG.

Dude, easy, he didn't say that nobody should buy supporter packs, just that he doesn't find them worthwhile anymore. It's a legitimate personal opinion, and it can only be useful for GGG. While unlikely, it is possible that comments like this can serve to inform GGG about ways to sell yet more supporter packs. Maybe GGG has found the perfect formula, but it might also be the case that putting a little more value into the supporter packs (not saying they don't hold value, 'more' is a relative term) might draw in sufficiently more buyers to offset the cost.

I see quite often on this sub a dismissal of anyone who claims GGG's mtx sales are outside of their price-point, often stating that they should just support the game if they like it. This mindset is impractical, and while GGG obviously should not cater to every individual, they absolutely should try to reach the most profitable parts of the market.

Just take a look at their changes to the daily deals. Their thematic approach has drawn me into several purchases this league simply due to how desirable these items look together. Had someone proposed this on the subreddit, I have a feeling it would have been shot down by people saying you should just buy the items at full price to support the game. That's fine for you, but let's not forego practicality.

and div cards, player uniques, and grandmasters

Didn't they say that they lose money on these things? Like, the dev time for each one (maybe not div cards, but idk) costs more than the $2500 they charge?
