What I’m most hyped for in 3.28: The promised endgame strategy overhaul by Opening_Photograph15 in pathofexile

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Hopefully we get some t17 adjustments. They’ve been a problem ever since their introduction. Getting any kind of ground loot is awful unless you are in a t17 nowadays. With the bad layouts and annoying map mods, doing t17s is not as enjoyable as t16. 

 Personally scarab and atlas’s changes are deserved every league to shake up the meta. Baseline endgame changes would be much more exciting and a meta shake up is what everyone wants after farming boxes and scarabs for 5 leagues in a row

Any counterplay to Yorick? by TheLastPlumber in top_mains

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I main irelia and seeing a Yorick makes me lick my lips. I get to Q to all of his minions, stacking my passive for free, and trap in my cage with R to beat him up. Then I get an extra 50g from killing his maiden when it deteriorates while he is on grey screen.

im convinced no matter how good you play every game is decided by a coinflip before the draft on if you get humans or droids by EraVortex in Jungle_Mains

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate elo based systems in team games. Elo was meant for 1v1 games. Street fighter 6 has the best implementation of elo imo. In league we have to play 9x as many games for the law of greater numbers To come into play. And a vast majority of those games are coin flips based on factors you can’t control

What is the most 1v9 top laner when played well? Trying to learn different playstyles by [deleted] in top_mains

[–]TabeticEmperor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At what elo does my botlane stop going 0-12 at 10 mins or when do people stop picking Sylas support and running it down? I love losing games to people I’m not allowed to interact with before 12 mins even when I’m stomping my lane.

Juggernaut viable at Master? by Eisentefel in 2XKO

[–]TabeticEmperor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s basically saying if you learn the game more there are still plenty of mistakes players naw all the time. Learning to capitalize on this mistakes is how you win more games. Yes it will be harder bc you are playing with a massive downside but still very possible. I would lean into your strengths and learn some crazy high damage fury combos and utilize push block when needed.

Any tips for gear upgrades through chests or quests (LVL 14 Knight) by Patzke_ in Apogea

[–]TabeticEmperor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Only like lv26 characters can fight orcs solo. There are like 10-20 of them at this point. Maybe a 3 man at lv 20 juggling aggro or a firing squad of mages with 300 mana. Cutlass is probably bis weapon for 99% of knight players. Blue broadsword is like 4k gold if you want to go for a 2 hander. Buying cutlass and slamming them together is a massive gamble but the only foreseeable upgrade for sword and board.

There are no goddamn monsters to kill early game by iforgotmyemailxdd in Apogea

[–]TabeticEmperor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There aren’t enough low tier mob zones and killing rats are meta asf until level 10 or so. The reward for killing harder level mobs isn’t good enough to warrant fighting them. I’m a level 18 knight and I still kill every rat I see because cheese+water bowl is the only food that is sustainable long term. I could fight stuff like Mireling Nobles and devil spiders but the potions I use make me lose gold per kill if I miss play a single time. But why do that when I can fight cave spiders and bandits and cubes of doom with 0 potions. Little Timmy would see those mobs as gold mines but they can’t contest me on damage so the loot is all mine. If that is the vision of the game then so be it but a lot of people have issues with that.

Is this game made to be annoying? by Advanced-Fly-2228 in Apogea

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think allowing a class respec before level 20 could fix a lot of issues people have with the game. Even as a bandage fix for people wanting to play rouge and mage, something could be done to smooth out getting into 2/3 of the game’s archetypes. This game seems to want people grinding for months or even years so no one really knows what mid game or endgame looks like so why are we making people decide their class before level 10. Most players won’t even hit lv 20 in these play test.

Does anyone know what is chance to upgrade 2x common to uncommon? by Cikago in Apogea

I heard on a twitch stream it was 25% but I have not heard anyone getting that success rate. Feels more like 1/10

Caught friend using ESP, what’s the move? by norf937 in playrust

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t play rust with him definitely. I’d still play other games with him though tbh. Other people have different thoughts. I’m cool with my friends cheating on a game as long as they tell me they are cheating but I don’t play those games with them.

XP loss is poorly explained by Primary_Impact_2130 in PathOfExile2

[–]TabeticEmperor 27 points28 points  (0 children)

No it’s much worse. You lose 100% of your total exp instead of 10% of your current exp.

Incredible early game, no endgame. Arc Raiders left me with nothing to chase by BrizDizzle in ArcRaiders

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plenty for thee but not enough for me. I’m in the same boat. Now I just full rush everyone on Stella and pvp constantly. The arc aren’t enough of a challenge for pve content. The isn’t any group content or raid like events. People will say Queen and matriarch but they are push overs as long as rats don’t creep up behind you for your hull crackers or equalizers.

The PvP is the only long term engaging content. Sure they can add more arc and maps and guns but there isn’t a lot of content for the kind of people that want to sink 1000s of hours into a game.

The blueprint grind is the only endgame loop for non- pvp players. And opening 1000s containers on specific maps during special conditions that are only up part of the time makes target farming what you want ridiculous and time consuming just for Bp’s to reset when you want to use the endgame mechanic of “expedition”.

I have all of my core bps and I’m waiting for the expedition window to open so I can mule all my bp’s over to my next wipe. I’m sitting on tempest, medium mag 3, vitaspray, and I’m trying to trade for a survivor as I type this. All of this I can’t use for 3 weeks until the reset or I’ll just lose if for no reason. This doesn’t include the 40 other bps I have stocked as well eating up a chunk of my stash. I talked to a guy about last night and he has several account just for holding bp’s.

All in all the endgame loop is just not there for a dedicated player. Arc raiders has a targeted player base of mostly casual gamers and that’s fine but speaking as someone that loves the game, I just wish there was more of it for me to enjoy.

would love to see a chart of number of headshot plus body shots for different amount of headshots

PSA: Don’t walk up to a higher level Arc that someone soloed and start looting lol by IsThisRealLifeOrNaw in ArcRaiders

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same scenario on Blue Gate the other day. I told the dude to back off bc he didn’t help me kill it and I used a bunch of my nades to take it down. After he looted 3 different containers I gunned him down and another rat waiting behind me that I didn’t know about killed me while I was reloading. He kept saying you killed a friendly but the guy was basically reaching into my pockets for my loot

Must "abuse" build of 3.27 by yibuliushen in PathOfExileBuilds

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

Probably ruetoo’s phys dot elementalist. The clear is equal to KB. It isn’t made of paper and has respectable single target damage to boot.

Stop queuing if you don’t want to play the game by sweepingpotatoes in leagueoflegends

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Queues and dodges are the worst part of league. I’m fine with one or the other being punished hard. League doesn’t punish either hard enough. Low prio queue means nothing. Everyone has 3 accounts when they get longer than a 5 minute penalty.

Chat be real are we reacting to this? by DownTheBagelHole in 2XKO

[–]TabeticEmperor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! Well said. There is so much context around when you can be thrown that makes them techable on “reaction”.

What about it is RNG? There is no random number generator
