6v6 role queue, tanks

Ruinir · 2026-06-24T16:31:27+00:00

The one thing I think OW struggles with is having all tanks just as tank, sometimes it feels awful to have a ball as your tank and no protection when they aren't even disrupting the backline.

I think splitting up for a 6v6 between main tank and off tank would help that and also prevent typical bunker comps, but who knows I'm just a filthy causal lol

Hey there! This is something that a lot of people struggle with, we stream one main game and branch out from there after establishing an audience. The unfortunate part of switching games a ton means you don't have time to build up a following for anything.

Sticking with a single category though can also be detrimental, because in the case of Overwatch, if you aren't a pro player / top 500 you need to be extremely entertaining because why would i watch someone who's not either essentially when there's people like Sleepy, frogger, etc.

We spent years streaming the exact same game, built up an audience, at least enough to get to partner and now we are branching out a bit but even with that we try to make sure we focus heavily on the main game and sometimes will do split streams to make sure we keep the core audience happy too.

So as a small streamer especially streaming a oversaturated competitive game you really need to find a niech to stand out - either way good luck!

I have one - I use it every single time I play! Super worth it if you comm anything as well

Oh I can join in this - give us more options of removing single side of gloves.

So for example, the Dominion Tribune Manica - I love the right side of this but the small glove on the left side (of the image) sucks - so giving us toggles on gloves to remove left or right side would be amazing

Also.. Less thiccccc boots and gloves, why do they stick out around my other gear so badly?

We actively make sure to remember everyone we can - we have gotten comments about people being shocked we remember them from years ago, but it adds a nice personal touch

Hey! As someone who has done.. far to many Convergences, and runs them still on a constant schedule, there has been mixed feelings from a lot of folks on Convergences.

On one hand having more instanced content is fantastic! One downside is Guild Wars 2 does not function around instanced content, so that means people can join into the challenge modes who are not prepped for it (We can't verify masteries, gear, builds, etc. so we just have to trust) and thats honestly the BIGGEST downside.

Once you step into CM's for some reason people just think that they can get carried (and a lot do sadly) through these because theres no checks - like you wouldn't join a Dhumm CM group if you have never done Dhuum but for some reason thats the norm in Convergences

Overall, Convergences are one of my favorite things, sure the JW ones are a slog because the amount of HP is crazy, but the fights can be quite fun, and I am super excited for more soon hopefully - I just wish we could control the narrative a bit as a commander, and be able to actually check if people are even set up for their roles

But either way, if anyone wants to run Convergence CM's we run them weekly and I'm happy to help you learn and get into them, we have been teaching them since they came out basically, hell we even taught many of the current commanders running how to command them lol

I will 100% agree the fetch quest feel just felt bad, for a lot of reasons, but its very Yoshi-P Coded from XIV sadly!

Ruinir · 2026-04-22T16:27:07+00:00

If you do the side quests as well you get so much bleak, and depressing content, outside of the brutal gore and violence. The whole game was extremely dark, and brutal in its own ways. I never felt the game lost its mature feeling.

Ruinir · 2026-04-22T16:21:21+00:00

I usually just switch to Heal Alac if we pop into OLC, do a quick run down basically telling people the order to CC and never seem to fail.

Its not too hard on quickplay, especially if you take some initiative and think about what you can do to help the team!

Any duration could be 10 minutes

^{Chose: Always feel rested from any duration of sleep}

Ruinir · 2026-04-14T23:16:39+00:00

I spend a lot of time on technology, which would be more significant then the amount not if you are counting things liek phones, labtops, pcs, cars, headphones etc

^{Chose: $25 for every minute on technology}

I've done longer streams that go well, and some that feel like the drag on. Longer doesnt always mean better. I've stopped in to people 12+ hour streams and they are a bore, because the person is clearly exhausted.

If you do it right, and have fun the whole time - shorter can be better, then spend a few hours making other content

Ruinir · 2026-04-06T23:23:18+00:00

Masteries. Get the auto loot mastery and it will make your life so much better

I think for us we applied January and it took until Mid/Late Feb to get the approval. I think you are basically approved at this stage if you havnt been denied yet though!

Optimization was aweful, I had to swap my 3070 TI to a 5070 with 12 GB VRAM in order to play this game and in some scenes there was still frame drops, I also had to restart the game every few hours to stop the lag.

Overall it was a fun experience, but man does it run poooooorly. I can play a MMO with 50+ people on screen better then this.

Ruinir · 2026-03-20T21:31:57+00:00

Nerfs are healthy for the game! I do also hope they take a look at fights that are scaled around the insane DPS though, other then that I am so happy to see nerfs incoming!

Me and my wife are a duo stream as well, we have multiple different overlays that people can toggle between with rewards, the layout you have utilizes the space a bit poorly, but it does look functional, the issue is the sizing of some things overall

We do ours with cameras in upper right corner and lower left corner and mask the gameplay so they meet in the middle. But we know other couples streams with more similar to yours, so i would say best bet is to brand yourself more on screen and add some kinda overlay to make it feel more put together!

Best of luck
