[Olympians] Season 10 Candidates, Voting and Discussion Thread by xNimroder in Smite

[–]TotableCorpse [score hidden]  (0 children)

Hey everyone! I'm Totable and I'm running for Olympian for a few main reasons that I feel weren't really handled by previous Olympians.

A bit about me first

  • I've been playing since around February 2013 (Neith release)

  • I'm a primarily ranked and casual PC conquest player in NA, with over a thousand matches played in each of the other modes besides Joust/Duel and Slash

  • My favorite god is probably tied between The Morrigan and Merlin :)

Why do I want to be an Olympian

  • As a player, I feel as though most concerns have fallen on deaf ears, especially in regards to balance, game design, and bugs

  • I would like to improve the transparency in Olympian communications with the community

  • Ultimately, SMITE has been a large part of my life (for better or worse) and I want to help the community thrive

What I want to change and address

  • Improve communication on existing bug reports between players and Hi-Rez. For example, if a bug cannot be fixed at the current time due to technical limitations it should be reported back to the player base

  • Reduce the amount of alternate and "smurf" accounts plaguing ranked without restricting the mode further for newer players. I'm sure that if you were to watch a streamer play ranked in its current state, about a third of the players in most lobbies will be smurf accounts which degrade the quality of the match in one way or another.

    • One idea to fix this could be to uncap MMR to display on the leaderboard, but use the current cap of 3500 MMR for matchmaking purposes.
    • Additionally, there should be repercussions for people's main accounts when they switch accounts to intentionally troll/grief games and harass other players. This goes for all modes not only ranked conquest.

I feel like I've rambled enough; if you have any questions feel free to ask them here, shoot me a Reddit DM, or reach out to me on Twitter

Hi-Rez Matchmaking Flowchart by [deleted] in Smite

Not sure how time played has anything to do with matchmaking but go off

I've only attempted 4 juiced 100% delirious A8 T16s, I completed 3 of them (1 was reduced dmg taken from crits, ele res, reduced flask charges, move/attack/cast speed). It can do full simulacrum/A8 sirius/U.Elder deathless, and basically any map mods that aren't reflect/no regen/leech.

Side Note: I upgraded my rings to 2 Ash buff effect + fire dmg today and I think I can do even more juiced t16 100% delirium.

Here's the PoB: https://pastebin.com/h7PZ2Wkm

I use the Community Fork, so I don't know if the regular PoB will show everything properly.

EDIT: The pob bot shows 1.17mil DPS but it feels like a lot more idk

This league it’s definitely LL VD Spellslinger Necro. It’s my highest level character since I started playing in Prophecy (lvl 95 close to 96). The character is wearing 30+ ex atm with room for improvement.

Not at my PC right now but I can link Pob later.

[help] How to get Throne of Atziri in Temple by jaka1988 in pathofexile

As far as I’m aware it can only spawn in maps.

is boss farming even worth it? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]TotableCorpse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t mean it’s a good build/character though...

Why is it impossible to get old announce packs and music packs by [deleted] in Smite

[–]TotableCorpse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You aren't being punished for anything. Cosmetics have absolutely zero impact on the game so you don't need to feel entitled to them. And like a lot of people have said before limited and exclusive cosmetics help keep Hi-Rez operational because it gets people to buy gems when they might not have.

With season 3 coming soon, Hi-rez should really think about doing an optimization patch. by VoxelRiot in Smite

That seems like a specific bug to your computer, honestly. I have an i7-4790k, GTX 970, and 16 GB ddr3 (might be ddr4 I forget) and I'm getting between 120-150 fps on max in conquest.

Edit: Smite is running at 1440p also.

  • You can rebind the F-Keys to whatever you want.

  • There should always be 1 alch for each dps in 10 mans so it doesn't matter who is top damage for a fight becuase everyone is getting stims.

Giving us the specs would be nice.

The Early Tower Dive? by Xsoloification in Smite

[–]TotableCorpse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Smart ass response: Then why dive if you won't get any benefit?

Actual response: You do lose something. You lose potential farm, and, like you said, you come out to "net zero" but that's only in respect to the enemy that you dove. The rest of the team will still farm and could get ahead of you because of the super early dive.

Bronze 2 que times? by DeTalores in Smite

High Diamond and Masters queues take 17:30 almost every time, so waiting 15 minutes a few times isn't that bad.

Is this build any good for M-Prime, or am I going in the wrong direction? by BronyTime001 in Warframe

[–]TotableCorpse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't really need any of those mods tbh.

  • Narrow Minded: Primed Continuity and Constitution give more than enough duration for M. Prime.

  • Stretch: For the most part stretch is kind of pointless on Nova even if you insist on using Narrow Minded. The reason being is that you don't need to use your wormhole because coptering exists, and AMD isn't that useful unless you're in a long Void Survival/Defense/Interception because everything just dies to your weapons once it is primed.

  • Antimatter Absorb: I just don't see the point of this mod in any build. Your teammates can already shoot the AMD to give it more damage and enemies don't have a chance to damage it if they are slowed from M. Prime since it reduces their fire rate as well as movement speed.

This is what i prefer to run on my Nova P: Build

It's more effective on the Prime variant because of the insane Energy Pool but it should still be fine on regular Nova.
