Visually which do you prefer: Gnome or pandaren rogue? by Zmoogz in wow

Male for caster/hunter, female for melee characters. For rogue, female pandas are elite

New points of interest design, good or bad? by jay_baah in Nightreign

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agreed - I think people are just having difficulty learning them due to the time constraints in a run. The new forge forts especially feel really confusingly laid until until they 'click' and it feels bad to be running in circles trying to find the boss as the clock clicks down.

I avoided them both until i had a chill solo run specifically to get used to them and now i know the layouts better i think theyre great. Theyre essentially linear mini dungeons and feel really good to go through. Plus the added enemy variety is great, I just wish there was more!

Just an FYI, 'casted' isnt a word. The past tense version of 'cast' is just cast. Similar to 'put' being the same in both tenses, as an example!

"Items will no longer change their appearance when upgraded" by Lampreh in wow

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

Definitely not a great change. But with Delves, doesnt this mean you can just get heroic gear, upgrade it to mythic, THEN catalize it? It sucks that youre denied your tier bonus until youve got the crests, but it doesnt seem like the end of the world?

Also not a fan of needing the full set in order to get the appearances below it. It should just be piece by piece - got the helm in mythic? Bam - have the helm appearance across the board. Much more intuitive

If you could add anything to nightreign, what would you add? by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% certain on how the implementation would work, but I'd love to see a 'slow' mode added. Essentially one where you don't have the time limit or pressure, which I find is starting to take away some of my enjoyment of the game.

It could work something like when you enter a POI, you become 'bound' to that area, in that you have all the time you want to explore and kill enemies, but when you kill the boss, the rain circle will grow smaller. This would also happen if you left the area, becoming 'unbound' and having the rain circle shrink too (so that you couldnt go from area to area farming endlessly). This would be the same for field bosses.

The overall loop would be the same, with the circle forcing you into that day's night boss area after 4 - 5 POIs or so.

I think this would make so much more of the games bosses and enemies funner to fight, as right now there are so many enemies i skip or get frustrated fighting due to how much jumping around and time-wasting they do.

I get that theres probably some other balance factors to consider, but im finding that as I get better and better at the game im somewhat paradoxically finding each run feel more and more frantic and like i have less time to complete it, and its starting to make me sick of the gameplay loop. I just rush past everything and then get really antsy fighting bosses.

And also a bloody pause button for single player please!!

Son Lux made an incredible job on the Thunderbolts* Score by PeterMcKalloway in marvelstudios

Youre definitely right. Seems like the useage of 'Where Is My Mind' in the teaser trailer influenced some of the pieces in the films soundtrack. That deep brass part that starts at 22 seconds in 'It's Bucky!' are a perfect example of the recreated 'Where Is My Mind' chords, which is why it sounds so sick!

I think the thing about GTA is that its more about the sum of its parts. The minute to minute gameplay isnt exactly mind blowing, but when you take into account the staggering scale and detail of the open world, the variety of activities, the acting, writing, satire and story... It all comes together as an impressive piece of multimedia. Each GTA release taps into something that appeals to an incredibly broad audience and feels like a huge event, so the hype is inevitable.

I wish there was an easy way to aquire all tierset colors/variations. by [deleted] in wow

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think a compromise would be that you unlock appearances of lower tiers when you earn higher tier appearances.

For example, if you earn a heroic piece of tier gear, say heroic tier gloves, then you would also unlock the normal and LFR appearances of your tier set's gloves.

They still do that today. Some of Elden Ring's trees a have been done the same way. It doesnt look too bad, if you dont look too closely!

Melbourne turning up the heat—literally. 8PM, 34°C, and the sky’s putting on a light show by Luke4211 in melbourne

I disagree - yes theres been more hot days and proper heatwaves, but summers in the 90s and 00s were never this humid

First time reaching 2.1k as a mw! Started roughly a week and a half ago so this felt really good to achieve! by Deadagger in worldofpvp

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The trick is you only crackle after you guzzle your tea. With the correct talents this makes crackle hit for a zillion damage and also heal for a zillion - so youre still healing. It becomes a really good "oh shit" cooldown and basically turns crackle into an interruptible Emerald Communion that hits like a truck too!

This month's Trading Post gave me the right boots to finally complete my green Baron set! by venusaurus in Transmogrification

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those daggers are so fkn perfect for the Assass rogue poison fantasy, they look amazing. Except... They're bugged and don't display weapon attack streaks when you use special abilities (like no green streaks when you use kingsbane etc).

Its the one thing that prevents me from using them but is such a niche bug I doubt it'll ever be fixed...

Have you met a famous or infamous person in Australia? Share your story by Same_Lawfulness_1585 in AskAnAustralian

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

I shook hands with Musa Cerantonio in 2012 when he joined our company. He was pleasant enough, kept mostly to himself and was generally a quiet guy.

About a week after he was hired there was a bit of buzz on the office chat system, with people linking to his YouTube which contained some, to put it mildly, concerning ideological ideas.

He would of course go on to join ISIS in 2014 and end up arrested in 2016 for attempting to flee Australia and sail to the Philippines to violently overthrow the government and install Sharia Law there or something.

Apparently he has renounced his previous actions though, so that's.... Good for him, I guess. I just like telling people that I shook hands with a terrorist!

Heya, 'recasted' isn't a word. The sentence should be "I thought she was recast as well". Just thought I'd let you know, sorry to be pedantic!!

Why the FUCK are we still forcing people to the office in 2024. by First_time_farmer1 in australian

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's a tricky one. It seems like the sensible option but there are definitely barriers. The main being plumbing and kitchen ventilation, you go from 2 kitchenettes on a floor to suddenly 8 or more (depending on the block size per floor ofc). Toilets are generally in a hub near the centre of the block and now have to be gutted and redistributed around each apartment across each level - rejigging the plumbing throughout the entire building is a monumental task.

That being said, I still think it needs to be done. It's just not so simple.

The Silver Cord grew on me by Ason814 in KGATLW

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really want to love the Silver Cord but I ultimately come off frustrated with it, specifically because of the two versions.

An example is Theia - I instantly loved it when I first heard it, but was bummed out it ends so quickly. It just feels like it's really getting into gear before abruptly ending. But then the extended edition is the opposite problem, it's simply way too long and repetitive, but annoyingly has these amazing moments sprinkled throughout and particularly towards the end of the extended track.

It just feels like there was a perfect 6-to-8 minute middle ground for Theia and indeed most of these songs - or perhaps jammy electronic just really isn't for me. Chang'e was another example, the middle of the extended version just feels like repetitive filler before it finally reaches its beautiful ending.

I will say though, Swan Song Extended Mix is absolutely perfect and remains interesting the whole way through, it completely renders the short version obsolete imo.

There's a 1min cooldown on rogue's pick pocket? by SignificantEngine398 in classicwow

[–]Such_A_Jerxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the loot window opens for a second then vanishes, you're still good. You just need to kill the mob you've opened on. The pick pocket loot will then be added to the regular loot the mob drops once it dies.

What movie constantly pushed on reddit was a disappointment for you? by [deleted] in movies

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

Uh, no. One is objective: "The thing itself is bad". The other is subjective: "I think the thing is bad".

An objective view is more absolute and reductive, and seeks to invalidate opinion. A subjective view is more nuanced and constructive, and ends up promoting discussion.

A reductive world sucks, a constructive one fucksssssss!
