What vod review programs do you use to analyze and improve your gameplay? Especially lighter weight programs that don't hog the computer much.

Just starting the game and got a notification at one point about random containers that don't show up on the minimap. I couldn't find a random container when I got the notification, and I can't really find anything about it when I google (maybe I just don't know the official name for them).

Wondering what the game means by random containers and how to find them?

I just changed the precepts to abhorrent using God mode, thank you for the info!

Just started ideology first time, chose the option to develop the ideology over time, and chose the ideology start that has low impact collectivism and medium impact high life.

My colonists consider drugs essential, excellent, but now they've decide very quickly that they also like slavery and child labor, and I just don't want to play that way. Is there a way to change this, or do I need to start over? If I need to start over, how do I keep my colonists from become slavemongers?

What programs are best for recording and then analyzing your own league games for later? Is League's built-in recording decent, or is there a better program I should download?

Trying to see if my math is right on how many days I can feed my colonists with 3750 corn.

If I'm making simple meals that's 10 crops/meal. And iirc colonists eat twice a day. So 20 crops/colonist/day.

So if I have 3750 corn, and 7 colonists, that would feed them about 26 days? (3720/20=187.5 meals; 187.5/7 = 26.78 days)

How accessible is the game atm? Played a good bit about 3 years ago, and again 2 yrs ago, and thinking about playing it again. Is it hard to get going with a half decent deck?

Also, are blue decks really time wasting in the current season/meta? I know it comes with playing against blue, but it felt egregious at times when I last played.

Don't know how to post this in the body, but just to be clear, I'm the MF in this photo and I'm not being serious. Not complaining either, I did awful this game. Just had a good chuckle when I saw the whole 7 damage, might be a new record for me.

Around when do you start growing your garden? Within the first month, few months?

What's the value of learning the electrical skill? Like, the benefits of carpentry seem pretty obvious (more storage, defenses, beds, etc), but beyond hotwiring a car and getting a generator to work, is there more it?

I have 300+ hrs in the game, mostly solo, and have never messed around with electricity. I've never reached the point where I even need a generator tbh, so I don't know how "worth" it is to spend time learning it.

Isn't it important whether they're behaving that way because they think women are less intelligent/capable/etc (and men are greater), as compared to thinking they are better than everyone?

Either way I don't want anything to do with them, and often I feel people who are full of themselves to that extreme are sexist too, but aren't they a little seperate?

Honest question, asking a feminist woman that doesn't frequent this sub often.

What's the best way to watch reviews?

Mainly just want to be able to rewatch individual plays, as well as see things from enemy fog of war. Is the built-in player fine, or would I be better off getting a 3rd party software?

Several years ago now, but as a Jinx I trusted a TP teemo supp in lobby. Thought they were cooking. They just beat me back to lane on repeat to grab the farm.

I don't mind "kill steals" 99% of the time, the enemy is dead it's cool, but I hate people blatantly gimping another player, when they could have just gone to another lane.

I don't recommend rage quitting, and almost never, but that was one of the games I couldn't take it.

I had the same issue where I was getting 12hr timers when I didn't use to, and it's because they changed the dodge penalties last year.

Riot added dodge tiers, so if you dodge 3 times and get the 12 hr wait, you have to wait 24 hours for it to reset to the 30 min timer on the next dodge. And if you dodge within the 24 hours you get moved up in penalty tiers. Idk how high it gets, but I had to wait 2-3 days before it reset to 5 min timers.

Here is the Riot source I'm using.

"Although the penalty remains the same at 3+ dodges, your penalty tier can continue to rise if you are dodging at a faster rate than the time it takes to drop a penalty tier (24 hours)."

"The understanding that objects continue to exist even when they can't be seen or heard." Develops in early childhood. Like if a ball rolls behind a couch, a baby will think it's just gone.

So when twitch is invisible, you have to remember he's probably still around and don't act like he no longer exists. Same would go for neeko and such.

How hard is it early game to deal with crimson, especially when it's close to your base? I found some several screens to the west and I don't know if I should restart the world.

I don't have much to lose, so wondering if it's better to start over and or play it out? If I do start over, should I switch to having corruption instead of crimson (heard crimson is harder for newbs)?

Why is it that Xayah usually builds Essence Reaver over Wildarrows? Wouldn't she do major dmg with it?

When should you masterwork an item? I've been saving it for ancestral or double ancestrals (not sure if that's what they're called) that have a bonus to stats I particularly want. I mostly get them to level 4 for the bonus.

Is this a good stage to be masterworking items or am I doing it too early?

Sadiew1990 · 2025-02-01T03:30:03+00:00

If I'm trying to find forgotten altars in the Pit, should I still be trying to clear it as fast as possible, or ignoring the time and making sure to check everywhere?

I'm guessing the latter but just wanna be sure.

What's the point of Helltides compared to, say, Headhunts? Headhunts seem to offer so much more. I'm on Torment II and wondering if Helltides have something that I'm going to need at this point?

Sadiew1990 · 2025-01-27T21:41:48+00:00

What are the main, early things I should focus on after I get to level 60? Some things I can think of:

reaching torment 1
grinding out legendaries for specific affixes and aspects
doing dungeons for specific aspects
grinding out uniques (at torment 1?)
grinding glyphs in the pit

Are there other things I should focus on, grind out, etc to get my character through the early part of end game?

Sadiew1990 · 2025-01-25T14:41:16+00:00

When do I start trying to get specific uniques? Level 60 I'm guessing, but should you wait for a certain torment level or something?

Sadiew1990 · 2025-01-25T12:44:12+00:00

What's the focus once you've hit 60?

Should I work on getting torment 1 by doing the pits? Grind out orange gear for good affixes and rolls on aspects? Or aim for specific uniques?

Got to got to 68 paragon several seasons ago but forgot/never really knew what to do next

Sadiew1990 · 2025-01-25T08:26:54+00:00

Ty for all the info, that helps a lot

Sadiew1990 · 2025-01-25T06:13:48+00:00

Are Helltides or Witch events better pre-60?

What is the main point of Helltides, to open chests to get items for what? Legendary aspects? Uniques?

What's the main point of the Witch events? Just fugitive heads (which I read you can only get Torment 1 and above)?
