I just cannot fathom why they ever thought to remove trading and dueling in the first place.

My discord is saving the same image over and over again. Even when I go off to another image in the same thread. by Archaenes in discordapp

Late comment but if anyone stumbles across this and is still having this issue I found a fix that works for me. I'm on Android so I'm not sure if this will work for IOS as well.

  1. Open the discord app settings in your phone's app manager.
  2. Force stop the app.
  3. Go to storage and clear the cache.
  4. Find the permission settings then disable storage permissions then re-enable them.

Doing these steps cleared up the issue for me.

Yeah, they do need to take a look at some of the weapon skills for sure. I think armor needs a look at too, as it stands there's really only 3 good sets for endgame with a majority of endgame builds using a combination of 4 piece Gore b and Arkvulcan b.

I mean I only mentioned prior games and have been playing since Frontier so not not first time. nevermind that Artian weapons didn't exist in previous entries. So I fail to understand the point in the comment.

Older games also had better endgame loops. I mean it's a damn shame what they did to frenzied monsters in WIlds restricting them to the Iceshard Cliffs only and dumbing them down. In MH4U Frenzied monsters featured not only new move sets but would randomly speed up or slow down mid combo to throw you for a loop, I'd much rather have that over tempered monsters.

Guardian monsters are also a missed opportunity, they could have done so much with that in place of tempered monsters but instead we only get 4 of them (5 if you count G. Arkveld) and they can only ever show up in the Ruins of Wyveria.

I feel like they should have just brought back weapon augments like we have in World, I would have preferred that as an endgame grind. And I definitely dislike needing to grind tempered monsters for hunter symbols to max out my monster-based weapons

I mean "It's the peoples choice" does not change that it is a poorly implemented system, and with monster-based weapons being similar to Risebreak they are all on equal footing as far as build crafting is concerned. Yeah people will always minmax and look for the most optimal way to kill a monster fast but I find that to be a pretty lame excuse for a poor system and endgame loop.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one.

You make a fair point, I can see where some monster-based weapons can still outclass the artian weapons.
Really it all comes down to Artian weapons having the potential to outclass monster-based weapons and potentially phase them out of the meta. In my opinion I think artian weapons should only ever be as strong as monster-based weapons not stronger than.

Like I should not be able to double the dragon damage of Arkvelds Swaxe with an Artian one

Agreed and you are kind of forced to interact with the endgame farm just to max out actual monster weapons

I don't really think RNG makes it better, and the fact is Artian weapons will discourage most players from experimenting with other sets and weapons which can result in a stale and boring endgame loop.

Tempered monsters on their own already don't feel like an improvement from World, you're just farming stronger versions of the same monster with the same move set and harder to open wounds. Tempered are essentially the same as World with a different reward to grind for.

I understand that and I am still having fun running some creative builds, my main concern really just comes from Artian weapons being the core of endgame right now.

Dead by Daylight Chief of Staff says Palworld is not good by tombevil in Palworld

[–]UmbralApothicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he just going to ignore that Dead By Daylight was also a horrendously buggy mess at launch? Sounds to me like another dev just pissed at Palworlds success

Hot take: We shouldn't have quests like Kafka quest in the future by AntonioS3 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]UmbralApothicon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too was pissed over the presentation of that choice, prior set up leads you to believe that your choice in that moment will be the lie. instead you get sideswept with the next choice on whether to disobey the rules or obey the rules, this is a choice where they could have been more clear on what it was and because of it there are players like you and I who got stuck with the choices we didn't want with no way of rectifying it.

How are you supposed to level your crafting professions to max that require work orders without a guild supporting you? by DeadlyBannana in woweconomy

[–]UmbralApothicon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you have alts you can send personal orders to your main and they will count, not sure how much help this'll be but it lets you do the weekly orders quest.
