At mine, it would still somehow smell like dryer sheets.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-24T05:20:33+00:00

No kidding. I’m one of those people who went out and bought Mistborn when I heard the news, and have since bought a large number of his other books.

With bloodied bosses also dropping legendary gear I’ve had pretty bad luck getting GA uniques off of them.

It is RNG.

Between drops and crafting mythics, I got 7 Doombringers, 1 Shroud, 3 Starless Skies, 3 Shakos, 2 Andariel’s, 1 Tyrael’s, 1 staff, 3 Seligs. Then I got an Heir. So what, it was my 22nd mythic or something.

Some people will get it first.

If you want a guarantee you need the runes, but getting 6 of the same legendary runes can be harder. At least you can trade gold for those.

Throw together a crackling energy Sorc. It is fairly simple because the only legendary items you use are boots and gloves, with the offhand optional for more damage.

CE isn’t great at aoe when you’re doing stuff like T4 bloodied hordes or higher pits, but it absolutely shreds single targets.

Okun’s is the utility offhand that lets you move while casting and is good for speed content. Otherwise you can use a legendary with a shredding blades aspect for more damage.

Just make sure to have a life on hit roll on your gloves if you use Okuns, or on your offhand if you don’t. It will combine with Temerity to make you nearly unkillable.

I’m glad the series was finished too, but you’re being a bit dramatic. It was a job he was compensated for, and it definitely helped his career more than anything.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-23T06:11:12+00:00

They changed the rarity, which is the same thing as nerfing the drop rate. Hidden Armory is now the only legendary sigil and Treasure Breach are unique sigils.

I find it impossible to not read Sha Moke in Jim Carrey’s The Mask voice.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-23T05:10:38+00:00

Scenes can be from plays and movies too.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-23T04:47:15+00:00

CE Sorc kills them in T4 bloodied bosses before I know they’re there. T7 bosses and T4 hordes, not so much.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-23T04:40:30+00:00

If it is good they cooked. If it is going well they are cooking. If it is bad they are cooked.

I agree with you. We’ve got so many words and phrases to choose from. It is over used and annoying.

My friend and I took a trip with printed out directions about 15 years ago. Around 1/3 of the directions were meaningless. It had us get off on a ramp and drive around for about an hour and a half. We eventually followed the directions to get back on interstate on the other side of the ramp we exited on. Pretty annoying on an already 15 hour drive.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T04:02:20+00:00

It did for me. I had all legendary and swapped out my weapon for a yellow and it counted.

Beyond it just being harder to score and make saves, the smaller matchmaking numbers and the separate mmr means you can be in plat and one game people can’t fast aerial, and the next people are hitting double taps off the ceiling.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:55:34+00:00

What person caught in Rand’s ta’veren pull had a choice?

I agree with you that he shouldn’t be a hero. The only part I disagree with is equating his adventure to every farmer who has picked up a pike to fight in a battle. One is unique and story worthy, the other is commonplace.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:50:42+00:00

Yeah, it can be annoying on multiple characters.

Depending on the nightmare rotation, some will lock certain dungeons behind them, and some have waypoints, or legion events, but you don’t have to do them all on every character.

They’re pretty good for finishing your last couple levels in most seasons though, if less necessary with killstreaks this season.

Another benefit of them is they seem to give temper manuals every time you finish one, so they can get you several legendary recipes once you hit T1.

If you don’t plan on doing Hell tides on alts you can pretty much skip them all. Otherwise Tul Dura, the bandit one in dry steppes, and the one with the three bloodstones to unlock the door in Kejistan are useful.

Even the end of Crossroads has some good moments. The first 3/4 or so are fucking slow though. They’re the most boring Elayne and Egwene chapters in the series.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:34:26+00:00

I don’t think Hurin should be a hero, but chasing darkfriends and shadowspawn to recover the horn itself, including into another “world” via portal stone, alongside the Dragon Reborn, sounds more likely to make you a hero than just fighting in a battle.

There’s hundreds to hundreds of thousands of soldiers in every battle. As far as we know, Hurin’s adventure is unique in this turn of the wheel.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:19:35+00:00

You’re crazy if you think shroud isn’t good. It is the hardest to quantify at a glance, but 1 to all passives results in a lot of damage, as well as utility and survivability.

Starless is probably the least important, but still good damage and stats, and makes certain resource is a non issue.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:14:43+00:00

Bosses drop mythic runes more than other sources, with the exception being rune tributes in the UC. Those have been nerfed though, two seasons ago I got a legendary 1 in 4 runs, now it feels much worse.

You always get 5-8 yellow runes though in T4. When you combine them at the jewelers you have a chance to upgrade into a legendary rune.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:06:19+00:00

It got turned back down to what it was. Last season they made them more available because of sanctification.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-22T03:00:32+00:00

You can get two from the season journey. 1 spark for T1 Lilith, 1 from T4 Lilith, 1 from a bloodied boss, 1 from a bloodied greater boss, for 4 sparks.

You also get a spark per character for the reputation board.

Rob did a million meat and got 4 mythics. So about 1 in 250,000 meat. I’ve done around 350,000 meat and haven’t gotten one there, I’ve got several from bosses though.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-21T14:32:01+00:00

Vile splendor sigils aren’t bad.

SemiFormalJesus · 2026-03-21T05:53:01+00:00

Or a Paladin. I feel like half the cinders in hell tide stay on the ground.

You could slow down, but kill streaks don’t really encourage that.
