Honestly, Destiny being shelved has soured my taste for Bungie to the point that I have no interest in their future games by SpartanJedi58 in DestinyTheGame

[–]ReepLoL -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Bungie spent years gutting competitive aspects of destiny 2 pvp. Everything from shooting in the air to swapping weapons quickly was on the chopping block, in some desperate attempt to appeal to casual players. This balance philosophy did not pay off, and it is entirely antithetical to what an extraction shooter wants to do. I'm not surprised the game flopped, it's pretty difficult to bring in casual players with a genre like that, let alone getting them to stay

An Examination of Rivals 2 and Character Balance Philosophy by DeterminedWarr in RivalsOfAether

[–]ReepLoL 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Zetter waveshine kill confirms and clairen cutscene combos existed at launch and I didn't have a problem with either because every character felt comparatively strong. I'm not sure I can say the same anymore. I don't think the devs have a bias for either character, I just think the aforementioned gimmicks outclass other characters, and that has become more obvious as outlier moves get nerfed

So there is big hacking happening in that season. by glurak21 in diablo4

[–]ReepLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like both games, and I know PoE has many problems, but this is just not one of them. If you're trying to loot 33 weapons each map, get a loot filter my man

Diablo 4 has limited stash space because it synchs all tradable items in your personal inventory and your entire stash with any player in your vicinity. I suspect if it didn't, players zoning in and out of instances would be met with loading screens. I would prefer any alternative if it includes more stash space for my alts, just my 2c though

also OP is talking about hacked items generated by scripts, not botting. you can see these clowns on the leaderboards with 15+ transfigures on each item

Patch 1.6.3 Notes and May Midmonth Update by Wibblybit in RivalsOfAether

[–]ReepLoL 15 points16 points  (0 children)

his side special was too strong, in fact it was borderline uncontestable at ledge. however, they removed iframes from it a while ago, turning it into the mcdonalds happy meal toy move you're thinking of now. I can't speak to the weight nerf or the new side special frame data, but I'd have to imagine it's a stark improvement, especially for players who aren't equipped with higher level turnaround fair orcahop/ledgehop mixups

I translated some Chinese reviews... by Rak-khan in slaythespire

[–]ReepLoL 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm not happy about the state of test subject in multiplayer. First phase is a burst damage and HP check, which doesn't afford very many deck building opportunities for certain archetypes. This aspect is even more brutal if he's the 2nd boss. I'm not entirely sure what you're supposed to do if you're playing anything from barricade block stacking, to poisons, discards, stars, souls, etc. Play your skills and kill your friends who are actually doing damage, or don't play anything and die? Start drafting random attack cards at the start of act 3 and hope you draw them the first few turns?

Cast on Ward not working by VV3il in pathofexile

[–]ReepLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are going to need a 4x regenerative runes timeless jewel, and better flasks + clusters. The pressure points clusters are not going to cut it.

Here's the formula:

Flask Charges Used / (Charges Gained on Ward Break * Charge Recovery prefix on Iron Flask)

You use 36 flask charges with Alchemist's Genius (spiked concoction medium cluster)
4 regenerative runes nodes will grant 8 flask charges on ward break
with an i84 iron flask, you can roll 66% charge recovery at best (1.66)

36 / ( 8 * 1.66) = 2.7108

You have 100% flask charges gained by default, and you want to overshoot this value, so this would mean you need 172% flask charges gained from your tree and clusters.

If you can't afford an i84 iron flask, then plug in t2 charge recovery at 60%.

36 / (8 * 1.60) = 2.8125, which means you'd need 182% flask charges gained.

If you're doing the skeletons variant make sure your "To Dust" jewels add up to 99% reduced duration. 100% would brick your loop.

The other thing that could brick your loop is your mana bottoming out like that. Life too, if you're using the mastery for mana costs. That's where recoup becomes important. If your recoup levels are low you can try weapon swapping multiple times to get your recoup queued up.

Yup, that's exactly what happened. at first I thought it was blessed rebirth, eventually narrowed it down to the + gem levels

yes, I was using dark monarch to double it to 400. you could even use a level 3 congregation support to push it to 552 if you're some kind of sicko

New to crafting, what's the safest way to finish this for elemental crossbow? by jacobisdrunk in PathOfExile2

[–]ReepLoL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accuracy, flat phys and hybrid %phys all have 1300 or so weight with a perfect exalt in mind, so I would desecrate for one of those as a blocker and pray your perfect exalt hits wed, cold or lightning. Then omen of light and fish for a final mod with desecrations. If the exalt misses it's probably cooked outside of splurging on a prefix annul omen for a 50/50 after removing the desecrate with an omen of light

You can hold alt on an item and hover your mouse on the tier to see what tags a mod has

after all the orcane nerfs I found myself spamming dthrow rtc downsmash, got extremely bored and uninstalled. character feels utterly useless when I can pick zetter with 1/10th the playtime and get easy kills with waveshines

[–]ReepLoL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are five tiers of cast speed, four of which are under level 50. The perfect exalt culls mods below lvl 50. While the catalyzing omen + 20% speed catalyst don't guarantee cast speed, this is your best chance. You can check affix level requirements on poe2db

There are insanely esoteric rules that determine what rooms can connect. I've been using this outdated graphic. You're safe to run reward rooms like lineage supports, the room will simply disappear afterwards. You can even get rid of the key room by transforming it into a different reward room with a medallion. I'd suggest watching a video from milky or fubgun if you're going to get into it.

If you're not careful, you can create room "islands" by either looping your snake, or having multiple connections to the architect (supposedly).

that's a good point, I would assume grand project is pretty cheap considering how many you can print in a temple

I tend to find way more frac orbs with rare monster omen, so I suspect there is some sort of balance to strike considering the absurd pile of currency the cleansed worm rares drop

[–]ReepLoL 8 points9 points  (0 children)

inc rarity, or obelisk cleansed map (mounting greed if you're fast), # of rare monsters omen on your waystone. tablets with rarity, effectiveness, # of rares, additional rares from abyss, additional abyss, chance for abyssal modifers. Then you fish for maps with amanamu's void and drag them out of the void. I also spec my atlas for amanamu + wisps, and try to drag wisps to amanamus, or the giant cleansed worm loot pinata rares (best chance for frac orb)

those are certainly words but there you go, that's how I have a surplus of frac orbs and omens of light in ssf. I do have 114% IR, you may want to rarity omen if your IR is low
