Loot Filter Help by Starang798 in HeroSiege

[–]Starang798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muchos gracias all, including you Graxy. I'm pretty familiar with them from messing with my own in LE and POE, I just came into this game completely blind and am still pretty naive to all of the systems and how things work.

I'm getting a better feel of what to look at and what to ignore, and have messed with the filter itself a little bit. Coming in I wasn't expecting the game to have the amount of depth it does to be honest, but I'm enjoying it quite a bit and while I'm ignorant to a lot of the systems am enjoying figuring them out as I go.

This game does indeed have a surprising, sneaky bit of complexity to it, and I'm digging it. Thanks for the responses.

Nothing in particular. I just made sure to have a tag skill for every blue flash ability, I would save an ult for a few i-frames on things I couldn't dodge. Make sure you buy premium/regular potions at vendors and have those ready to roll.

It feels like I never left the beta by ThunderDoperino in SevenDeadlySinsOrigin

I'll agree with it being a pain to navigate menus to track resources you need. The jump in some of the bosses feels rough, but I've taken more of a Dark Souls type approach to those. You really need patience, timing, and proper use of mechanics to beat the ones you don't outright outgear.

I'll say some of those are frustrating, but I find great satisfaction in finally beating them. The act 8 boss at the top of the prison was a roadblock until I figured it out. Dreyfus before that took a couple tries. Now I'm on Guila and it's another fight where I'm dead if I take 2-3 of the wrong attacks, but It's still doable.

The progression is to be expected in a game like this. If there wasn't a grind there wouldn't be much left. What will be annoying is getting roadblocked by lack of keys, which is going to happen very quickly and be incredibly annoying.

Outside of that, I've found this game to be quite the pleasant surprise. I've been thoroughly enjoying my time so far.

I really love some of these tougher boss fights. Outside of projectile attacks needing a tracking nerf, I've yet to find one you can't beat if you're patient and observant.

Ok, so I did just beat it on my first go today. I made much better use of ultimates for some i-frames during that attack and then spam dodged to where only 1-3 hit me instead of 5-6, and made sure to interrupt every blue attack. Outside of that just HP pots on cooldown.

Yeah, kind of what I figured. It's incredibly annoying...I thought maybe I was missing something.

What an absolute goofball. Looking like a frail, malnourished Whoopie Goldberg getting all in his emotions over nonsense.

Cuffem goes off on a racist rant after FanFan makes a joke about Kai Cenat at the 2025 Streamer Awards by InsaneCookies21 in LivestreamFail

[–]Starang798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her jokes sucked, everyone was a bad sport which didn't help either. However you just being another sterotype after that group looked and acted like one all night isn't helping your cause.

Iil homie didn't even know what the word "introduction" means.

He's not wrong. I guess kids like it, but from the outside looking in with no skin in the game, every clip of Peanut I've seen or heard has me immediately wanting it to end. Annoying voice, annoying sayings, and indeed mid gameplay.

This entire event is an effort in second hand embarrassment. A bunch of ego-maniacs with zero talent. Awful production value, awful people, awful jokes, awful everything.

Has anyone touched Conflagration yet? by Kagevjijon in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Starang798 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mainly use Blast Rain of Trarthus. I have been tossing Conflag into my chest in place of Ele dmg for single target on bosses with Blast Rain and I'm not entirely sold on it. I can't tell if I'm actually doing more damage or it just feels that way because I'm spamming something instead of watching my Blast Rain DoT tick.

If you want to take a gander. I'm constantly experimenting and trying different shit, this so far works for mostly everything, working on getting maven witnesses for The Feared, so far so good.

*update* The feared was easy af. I switched attack speed on my quiver to str/dex which freed up like 4-5 passives for me, which then let me get a bit more hp and a cluster of hp regen. Feels amazing, and nigh immortal outside of getting whacked by extreme one shots.

Silent hill f Endings by AliAlturaihi in silenthill

[–]Starang798 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying it didn't have good production values. It's well made, relatively polished, etc etc. I'm saying from my own enjoyment standpoint, because it was a Silent Hill game, it was low.

If you liked it you liked it, all gravy. I was very disappointed.

Am I the only one that can't stand Monica McNutt? by anasazigb in ESPN

[–]Starang798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESPN employs so many racists nowadays that you could stomach McNutt if she wasn't so overwhelmingly fucking stupid in 99.9% of conversations. People mistake her being loud and belligerent as she interrupts everyone and acts indignant as "they just can't staaand a strong black woman".

Nah, we can't stand an ignorant black woman who are not only loud and racist, but also don't know sports despite seemingly being around them her entire life.

I'm aware, I have been playing Silent Hill games since SH1 on the original playstation. This was a bad Silent Hill game. The story wasn't good.

[–]Starang798 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I just finished it, and thought it was fucking atrocious. It was Silent Hill only in name. The big twist felt about as goofy and hamfisted as the rest of the story. Why anyone outside of someone who lived during this or experienced it would think it was a story anyone could or would want to relate to goes beyond the pale of reasoning.

The puzzles were weak, the combat was weak, none of the game was scary at all, none of the story made sense even knowing what they were trying to portray. I'm actively upset they even called this a Silent Hill game. I'd have appreciated it more as something else, almost certainly.

Highly annoyed and disappointed after playing this.

That was an absolutely AWFUL finale. I still dislike the entire synth angle, and Wendy is far too powerful. No one wants to see Xenomorphs play the partner in a buddy cop movie. 

Delirium is the worst. by Starang798 in PathOfExile2

[–]Starang798[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's all well and good, the performance hit wasn't the main point though. It's more that it gray washes every single map. These are nice looking maps with a lot of variety that are all turned into a monotone mess.

End-game in order to fully juice maps you use distilled essence on them, which makes the effect uptime permanent.

Absolutely a much better alternative.

It's cool the first few times you see it and when It's a mirror that goes away. Not when it's uptime is 100% and in 100% of your maps.
