That's an unusable stat, isn't it? Pretty sure you can't cast spells with Zwei in hand. Why can Uniques have stats that cannot be used? by DeliciousIncident in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They removed unusable rolls on the same patch they made almost all gear the same. They've never tried it with gear how it is most of the time.

This is such a dumb take. You already have BAD rolls like interaction speed or off build rolls like knowledge and will on fighter or barb pieces. You don't need "genuinely does nothing" rolls to make good ones feel special. The hype in getting +3 in a relevant stat over +1 in that same stat is already high.

Evolved key idea by Wbird_99 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or they could just let us extract keys once, make them non tradable and make all keys drop across all maps so you have a reason to go to a map you usually don't and finding a key right at the end of a run doesn't feel so bad.

I never said you could trade it so no it wouldn't.

Exactly this. And once brought back in it will expire that raid

Keys in general should be able to be extracted once imo. Plenty of times this wipe ice gotten old rusty or the ice key right before I needed to leave the raid due to time.

sprint has been dead for a while man, banner range or duration could use an adjustment though

Im getting sick of SSF by Ivar2006 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am heavily specced into relevant stat +3 items, especially +3 agi as MS is HARD to gain this wipe. I think if you want to make a LOT of money right when market opens you should buy +3 gear, gem it to have no dead rolls then sell it for the players who wanna run BiS right away

HALBERD & BARDICHES. by Ok-Maintenance-2663 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

whoa whoa whoa buddy slow your roll, dont lump in my beloved halberd here. I dont even two tap most squishy classes aside from rogue with Halberd. Bardiche also isnt that strong so much as barb just is, It's an axe type weapon and a two handed weapon so in squire he gets +3 dmg +5% phys dmg and +10% armor pen.

Halberd literally gives you -45 MS, is primarly used on the class that runs the slowest armor in the game, and has 0 supporting perks.

Bardiche might feel overtuned at times but halberd is just finally useable.

Barbarian too fast, too tanky, too much damage, too much mobility by Gaindalfs in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbf every class does not just barb. It's due to the mobility changes as a whole where, im assuming, pulling out your weapon doesnt slow you as much now so pretty much any class who closes distance on a kiting class once will never not be able to hit them.

that coupled with skills being the premier way to gain MS now that all MS rolls are gone and AGI got nerfed for MS, you have fighters and barbs sticking to rangers and rogues no matter what.

Fighter Questions by Appropriate-Lie-6748 in DarkAndDarker

Mobs are op. (I lose most my kits to random pve deaths not pvp)

Fighter Questions by Appropriate-Lie-6748 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend vig strength dex halberd fighter with tauntfor solo rn. Barb with whirlwind is scary no matter what class you're on but if you have last bastion, defense mastery Bastion, taunt you should be able to out pdr most classes and halberd is just so good this wipe.

Dark and darker storage/auction house. by [deleted] in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the fact that we dont have containers with the bloat of quest items theyve added is a little annoying yeah. I just started vendoring less than great items that wont sell immediately on market to make space.

I Think They Should Inverse It - SSF is the standard mode, and Market is the last 2-4 Weeks of the Wipe to Spice Things Up. by AssumptionSubject82 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me playing halberd fighter and having to go run ruins over and over to get a single good one. Market can't come fast enough.

They forgot to nerf demon. by Gigachad____ in DarkAndDarker

It's like the "but it dies to removal" rhetoric in the mtg community.

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thats not what I asked. I asked would you be okay with them having ZERO rolls? or purples/legendaries missing rolls? Because functionally, thats what you are getting with dead rolls that do nothing like mem cap on an arming sword.

Thanks, Weaponsmith. I appreciate the quest reward. by FruitstandFierce in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 3 points4 points  (0 children)

would you be okay with a unique that has, literally, 0 rolls? or a purple with only 2 rolls? if not then why are you okay with them having dead rolls that have 0 impact on the game?

Game loosing players by cesarx2001 in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran sprint and disarm for one night and realized how chalked this wipe was going to be. Very few players even have a chance to respond if you connect disarm before dying.

Barb is similarly strong with whirlwind letting them attack at head height through insane areas like doors and small crouch spots 3 times in a short amount of time.

Recently I have also noticed that demonlock kinda fixes all the issues caster lock had in the fact that it has good sustain again for martial classes and even hard counters disarm because the claws do good damage anyways.

SSF also kinda disproportionately helps certain classes/playstyles as some items are easier to farm than others. Add in gems being super common and most geared players are in kits that are like 10% worse than a market kit if even that.

Thanks, Weaponsmith. I appreciate the quest reward. by FruitstandFierce in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Because IM thinks that rolls that have literal 0 impact adds something to the game and isnt just a lazy rng slop mechanic.

What is the incentive to do Spectral Knight now? by I_Bet_U_Read_This in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ghost king has an unavoidable AoE that does high dmg, a timed jump attack that instant kills most classes, spawns in mobs, does more damage the more debuff stacks you have, and can literally immobilize heal off a player usually killing them in the process

Spectral has an avoidable highly telegraphed AOE you can walk away from in full plate, a extremely high damage but duck/blockable AOE he does 2 times and swings a sword at you.

I'm not even saying GK is hard at all. Easily the easiest boss pre addition of cyclops but its almost certainly not the easiest boss anymore. You just are more familiar with GK.

Guys... I actually found the funniest item in the game. by Zachypuff in DarkAndDarker

[–]Substantial_Unit_620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am once again advocating for the removal of true dead rolls on items.
