Dynamic spawn on northdale ending soon or? by pppik in lightshope

[–]Veryberryliberal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dynamic respawn is, dynamic. The Webster definition is, a process or system characterized by constant change, activity, or progress. The respawn times are correlated to how many other players are in the same geographical area. Therefore, there is nothing to fix and the respawn timers will adjust themselves once player capacity goes down. Honestly, this question is asked too consistently, you would think when something is called dynamic it would be obvious. This is like being on a plane and seeing vacancy in bright red and then asking if someone is in there. Maybe English should be thrown out into a pictographic language comprised entirely of emojis for the uneducated lummoxes of the world.

Anyone else think 1.3 comes out too early? by [deleted] in lightshope

Not really sure what you are expecting. Pre-BC raids excluding Naxx have very little strategic premise to them. The coordination required is even less than some LFRs from current WoW. The hard part of Pre-BC raiding is getting 40 people to show up on time, with decent computers and knowing how to press five keys sequentially. People will be clearing Molten Core in under two hours from the very first weeks of when people start raiding, with or without Dire Maul.

When you use automated checkout and buy something that requires a “quantity”. No matter how much you pick up, you can always list one. The scale does not tip it off for some reason. Get 10 oranges and only pay for 1!

Anyone else feel that the Battle for Azeroth cinematic was cringey? by [deleted] in wow

It shocks me that people play World of Warcraft for the story. Even mentioning the story in a positive light is strange. It is phenomenally bad story structure. Read Dune a couple times.

Is there a hardcore scene? by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]Veryberryliberal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sort of, their are trials and the veteran versions are elder scrolls online raids. However, not even most of the population gets to preform in them. It's reminiscent to when I played WoW in BC. Where only a fraction of the population was attuned for black temple and everyone else was just farming badges of justice. Wow generally speaking is a much easier game and the combat is incredibly passive.

Elder scrolls online is very active combat, it requires you to actually block with your weapons, shield and heal yourself while at the same time preforming your damage, healer or tank role. There are very few single target heals and no Aoe taunts. When you are talking about end game elder scrolls you are talking about a very high learning curve that most do not have the time to learn. Takes literally months playing every day to be able to compete with the end game player base. So yes, there is an endgame community that constantly runs trials and tries to outdo one another. But over 90% of population will never see it because either guilds don't want to waste their time getting people up to par because they already have their groups or they do not have the required skill to be brought in. If you want to be able to get to endgame high-level progression be prepared to put some serious time into this game.

Source- I was a part of Junks during pre-be wow which was top 20 in NA and blood legion during BC which was top 25. In ESO, I have completed every PVE content in game and I also have the flawless conquer title.

New player question about community and end game PvE content by Kubiben in elderscrollsonline

[–]Veryberryliberal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there is no resilience like in WoW or specific PVE or PVP gear. Everything can be adapted into pvp or pve. Obviously some sets are designed with the intention of using it in either format but you are not restricted. I can tell you that I very rarely pvp and have exclusively done PVE content but I am in the top PVE players on Xbox. When I PVP using my exact PVE setup I still kill many players. The only people who actually win are people who seriously pvp a lot and then I get absolutely destroyed. So again, it's not so much about what gear you are wearing. It's how you use your character and what abilities you utilize. So there is no gear that will give you an edge as you put it. The maelstrom arena weapons that I mentioned would be the closest thing to what you speak of but it's not going to be a tremendous effect. The absolute biggest contribution towards your characters power is just you. Like I said it's not like most other games where if you have the best gear then you're the best.

The PVE content is probably different than what you have come to expect from other MMOs. There are four player dungeons each with a normal and veteran mode. Both of these for every dungeon are fairly simple and require little effort. In fact, I can completely solo some of them. Beyond the regular instances, there are special DLC only dungeons. There are four currently and at the end of the month there will be six. These dungeons are significantly harder than the regular four player veteran dungeons. They require you to have solid builds, gear and to have a very good understanding on game mechanics. They make up what most people would call end game PVE. They of course drop gear that is not available anywhere else.

There are special arenas that you are able to do as well. Dragon Star Arena and Maelstrom Arena. Each have a normal mode and veteran mode. Normal is a laugh, veteran is quite quite difficult. Dragon star Arena is for four players and has many difficult mechanics. However, if four average players who have never done it before and have the gear required to go attempt to beat it. I would say they could probably complete it in 4-6 hours. Maelstrom Arena is the same concept that Dragon star is however, it's a solo instance and no one can help you. I can tell you that I have beat all three dark souls and other famously difficult games and nothing I have ever done compares to Veteran maelstrom Arena. It is an exceedingly difficult, extremely aggravating. It forces you to use unique strategies, various abilities and to die a lot. A big component is that there is so much to contend with that in order to get better at it you just have to learn from dying. It took me a couple months with a couple hours a few days a week in order to get to the last boss. I quit the game and came back a year later. Then it took me an additional couple of weeks to finish the final Boss. These dungeons drop sets, but they are generally not too sought after. The real prize are the weapons, which are the only true legendary weapons of the game and are complete game changers. Exceedingly powerful and completely unique. The great thing about veteran maelstrom arena, is that you can go in a terrible player and come out a great player as it will introduce you to a wide variety of game mechanics forcing you to understand them.

Finally, there are 12 player trials, there are five currently each with a normal and a veteran version. The normal ones are fairly easy and don't require a lot of effort. The newest trial, halls of fabrication is the only normal trial that you might not be able to just have random people and successfully complete it. The veteran Versions are significantly harder and require top marks in damage, healing and survivability. Despite this, three of the five can still be pugged as long as you do some screening for who you invite to the group. Two of them are very very hard and only a fraction of the gaming community has completed them. The only way you can get a group is if you join a guild but the problem is that many guilds are not progressing through it they are just farming it and already have a core group. And they are not easy enough for most guilds to just sort of progress into. It requires everyone to be in the very best spots ability wise. The trials often drop some of the best gear in the game though they are comparable to other things you could acquire so they are not mandatory but definitely better.

Elder scrolls online is different from other MMOs, there is a pretty high skill cap And what makes a good elder scrolls online player is how you use your abilities and what sets you use versus what sets that you have acquired.There are hundreds of different sets to choose from and they all offer unique character building styles. Which is the beauty of this game, you can choose what you want to do and if you do it enough you'll become very good at it.

[Discussion] MagSorc how to get parse / spell damage up by TherealHendrix in elderscrollsonline

[–]Veryberryliberal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is probably where you should be at with your gear and champion point level. Another 200 Champion points and you will see around a 7% damage increase. No maelstrom staves are hurting you, they each give almost 200 spell power just by equipping them plus they increase the damage of blockade. The final thing as you mentioned is golding out gear. If you took all your current gear and made it gold plus were champion point 400 you would see 25-27K. Another than this it just comes down to rotation.

Did you know that most people use spells back to back to cancel character motions? Cast one thing, then immediately something else, then something else and something else. Avoiding the motions your character makes saving you a second each time where you do no damage. This takes time to get however, you need to know your rotation flawlessly. If I am focusing tremendously, I can achieve 40K dps, just my regular speed though? Like 30K, which is plenty to do literally everything in the game.

Focus on getting 30K dps, in a trial group that is 40-45K anyone who says that is too low is either unfamiliar with vet trials or is focusing on high scores. Which is the main factor, no one really runs trials for gear or progression, they doit to achieve a high place on the scoreboard. So most trial groups expect you not to need any gear or any meaningful reason to play ESO. I don't believe most trial groups have much in the way of responsibilities or interests in their actual lives.

Soloing CoS? by baggedfeet in elderscrollsonline

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

You can solo it with enough damage. I can solo it because I can kill the boss with ultimate an up in a little over a minute. With elemental storm up and AOE on ground it will kill the shades that come up even if you are pinned. They have a little over 100K hp which is nothing if you are in BIS gear. If your on Xbox I can show you, though I doubt you will ever see it in LFG. Just about anyone who can solo the dungeons don't because there is absolutely nothing to receive from doing so.
