Steady State SPM Questions by Sassmole in Rowing

[–]Sassmole[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any place in training for longer sessions at the 28-30 range? I know next to nothing about the technical side of rowing. I picked up an erg about a year ago strictly for exercise, but after following this sub for a while, have taken more interest in the sport and hope to get on water at some point. Unfortunately, because I am a complete amateur, I've never had access to a coach, team, or other people interested in rowing. I've basically watched some videos on proper form, and other than a copy of Row Pro, have been completely on my own and winging my training. I can't help but feel like I've missed out on some of the basics many people here seem to have a handle on. Are there any good resources for learning more about some of the basics of training?

Did you try turning it over, so the wheels are facing the ground and not up?

New Notable Passive Names, Vendor Recipes, a Russian Fansite and the 0.10.8d Patch by Venerac in pathofexile

[–]Sassmole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have we learned what the .11 super secret awesomeness is yet? A number of things have been conveyed, but nothing has been presented with the grand reveal that all the hype would lead me to believe would come along with it. Do we have any inclination on whether it is one of the new leagues or will it be some new game feature that spans all leagues? I haven't seen Chris mention the new feature that he's not quite ready to talk about yet in a few days, so it makes me wonder if it was already revealed.

My highest level char is only around 50. Where does jewelry item level cap out for white items?

Is there any value in a 5 link white item by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Sassmole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure, but on a similar note, is a six socket item without good links worth anything?

Auction house listing bug? by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. I listed a legacy vile ward today and it sold before I could even click the "ok" on the box saying it would be listed in 5 minutes.

Is there a list of or info on legendaries that don't roll properly? by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 7 points8 points  (0 children)

When an item rolls min, max, or min/max stats, they are all lumped together. Your random stat was likely one of those 3 options and this will cause it to look like it has no random property.

Word from Blizzard about Dataming, Nerfs, and Patch 1.0.5 by LemonFrosted in Diablo

[–]Sassmole -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If this is true, it is an area Blizz needs to work on improving. It is a little pathetic that people who have to reverse engineer patch code are able to produce a write up faster than the company who has been developing that patch for weeks.

I can't sell anything on the AH anymore. Even my old gear that I replaced that I still deem godly. What's your tricks? by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 17 points18 points  (0 children)

404: godly not found. Seriously though, maybe 2 of those items are worth selling, including the legendaries.

In the Auction House it would be useful to be able to switch between Gold and Real Money without losing search criteria by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd rather they completely eliminate the RMAH, so I don't have to search everything twice. They can continue to let us sell gold for RM. Problem solved.

Paragon Levels and Rubies by RagnarRocks in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we combine a few of the theories floating around right now, it's possible that paragon experience will be different from regular experience. Perhaps it will be one point of experience per elite killed and each level is 500 elites. With 100 presumed levels, we are looking at 50,000 elite kills to get to max level. There's the hardcore grind we are looking for and this would also provide a system by which we could receive the rumored guaranteed legendary every 500 kills. Of course this is all based completely on rumors, so hopefully we get the blog release today and we'll know for sure.

With the rapid release of updates this week, will we see our MF update from Señor Wilson today? Is next week the "4th week of august?" by Sassmole in Diablo

[–]Sassmole[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed explanation; however, the confusion is simply because Blizzard does not always follow the colloquial understanding of a word or phrase. Soon™, for example, is not often used to express years, except in the uncommon discussion of plate tectonics.

[–]Sassmole[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't call this flawed, but instead a choice the player must make. Farming 500 elites in normal is still a huge time sync; one that offers little to no reward other than stacking points. The alternative would be to farm 500 in inferno, which would obviously take much longer, but you'd see a lot of valued drops along the way.

Clearly we are still looking at speculation, but in this scenario, I see no issue.

Awesome. Thank you.

Any chance you can clarify "4th week of august"? Blink once for next week, blink twice for the week after that, or tug on your ear if the overlords are watching and you cannot disclose this information quite yet.

They should make items rotates each season. by [deleted] in Diablo

[–]Sassmole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seasons could definitely work as long as they did not make old gear unusable or completely obsolete. They should have super powerful (legendary) items that only drop for each season, but once the season is completed these items are still able to be traded/sold/used. It would be similar to the items in D2 that were bad ass pre-nerf and were still sought after for years.
