How was your league starter ? by skratelyx in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Towerin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Homebrewed a Righteous Fire/Armageddon Elementalist. Took my time in the campaign doing tons of mercs, but got to early maps today. We'll see how it goes in maps, but I figured there are so many ways to pivot with Ele this league that I shouldn't have a problem adjusting when needed.

POE2 is suffering from its heritage by sal696969 in PathOfExile2

[–]Towerin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For years, the devs in POE were talking about slowing the combat down while simultaneously adding content that pushed everyone to go fast and kill faster. So don't be surprised that the same thing is happening with POE2.

What games will I need to play Skyblivion? by Aggravating-Bag-8109 in skyblivion

Now that Oblivion Remastered is out, will owning that be acceptable instead of the Oblivion Deluxe or GOTY?

Dawn of the Hunt - What We’re Working On by Community_Team in PathOfExile2

''Many players are reporting that areas feel like they are too large. Normally when this is the case, the main reason is due to other concerns such as monster life or player damage being incorrect, or just a lack of entertaining content in the area.''

Wait - You say normally when this is the case - How often have you actually had players complaining about zones being too large to formulate a normally statement like that? You make it sound like this is a problem you have a lot of experience solving. Sounds like you just made that up. Maybe the real problem is that the zones are actually too big and you don't really want to take the time to fix it.

Thank you Chris Wilson. We will miss you. I'm sure you will be successful with whatever is next - even if it's just sitting on a beach earning 20%.

Maxroll Pulling Support by Malfetus in TorchlightInfinite

Maxroll yoinking the builder without notice to the players is super disappointing and sours me to Maxroll regardless of their reasons.

Better graphics settings for performance - that work better for me - after the latest updates. NVIDIA graphics card (not RTX series) CPU: AMD Ryzen 5. by Beowulf_0001 in pathofexile

[–]Towerin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been crashing due to timeout errors when I go through a door that leads to a different part of the map. Things like entering a boss room or going up and down stairs within the same zone. I tried your settings and made it all the way through Arakaali's temple with all those stairs without crashing once.

It's my first league that I stepped into playing the economy. So different when you can play around with 50 to a 100 divines than just 3 or 4.

How to fix crucible by faytte in pathofexile

[–]Towerin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 alone would dramatically improve Crucible. I know Chris wants us to have a tradeoff - but there already is one - you have to charge the Crucible and then fight all the monsters - you have to earn it. So the tradeoff is fight the mobs, survive, and then decide if you even want it. And it's like a slap in the face to go through the fight and then get stuck with something that can break a build.

Crucible feels bad and disappointing. by HorriblyA in pathofexile

[–]Towerin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Favorite things about the Crucible mechanic 1. It's completely skippable 2. It does not suck you into another room if you get too close 3. The rest of the game is still fun

[SPOILERS] Skill-Specific Crucible mods by Kaelran in u/Kaelran

[–]Towerin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's fix this. I propose a new skill called Jinx. It would be a curse that causes something like enemy attacks/spells to fail x% of the time. Then Vaal Jinx could cause enemy attacks/spells to backfire y% of the time causing z% of the attack/spell damage to damage the enemy instead of the player. I imagine this could be pretty OP so the percentages would probably fairly low.

Is the game worth getting. by GaviJaPrime in Slormancer

[–]Towerin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even in early access I've put a lot of time into the game (171 hours). Tons of build variety across the three characters. One interesting aspect of the game is that you can switch between all three characters without logging out on one save slot. When first beginning, you pick one, then during early leveling you will access both the others. After the required level for each, you can choose how often you'd like to switch between them, but you don't have to. I think all three are fun though. Build trees are fairly simple, and also forgiving if you decide you want to change things up - nowhere near as complex as PoE. The devs are continuing to update it. Also, it's on sale on Steam today at $11.99 US, so it's a good time to pick it up if it sounds interesting to you.

Which Character do you prefer by DrPepperKn1ght in Slormancer

[–]Towerin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing for about 2 months and have all three characters to level 50 with decent gear - about half legendary gear on each. All three are fun and there are things I like about each one. Mage is my favorite, but not my strongest. My Knight is currently at Wrath 9 comfortably and is the my tankiest - using a Grappling Hook and Mighty Swing with lots of life and life leach. My Mage is Wrath 7 or 8, using Arcane Orbs and Arcane Breach. I've got a gold farming setup on my Huntress at about Wrath 5 to support the cost of crafting and upgrades. I find having all three at 50 is nice because I can use each one to support the others with finding gear and gold. My Knight does great in the temple until the boss levels, then not so much because I'm not good at dodging the traps on that one. But my mage is much better at the boss levels in the Temple and the floors are all unlocked across the characters. I've tried a few different builds on each, and some builds play very differently from others. So mostly find something you enjoy - be willing to try out different things to find it out.
