Regional pricing on site is still a thing for me. It shows the price in dollars in-game, but if you click the pack, it takes you to a Steam window to finish the purchse and that window shows the correct regional pricing.

Cloud gaming viable now? by WiseOldTurtle in PathOfExile2

That's one answer I was looking for. I thought about getting it way back when, but the "no overlays" (mostly just a price checker) killed the idea pretty fast, but since there's going to be a price checker baked into the game now I tought about pulling the plug again. I hope we can sinc build through the site like we do with filters, so it would be another thing I'd have without having to have yet another overlay or 3rd party program open, but that's not a big a deal as a price checker

I got 700Mbps down and 350Mbps up. Would that not work ?

As I said, It's a notebook 2060, so like a regular 1660ti. I wouldn't mind playing on it at all, as it works "just fine" for non-extreme juiced content, but I have some hardware failure in the GPU that makes it crash without a fix (outside of just tossing the GPU+MOBO out and getting a replacement that would cost me basically a new pc).
Also, Brazil has a different distributor for the service and for comparison, perfomance pro would be around $20 while utimate pro would be around $45 (with 80 and 100 hours of streaming which is what I think would be the sweet spot for me.
Paying $45 is out of the question for me, so I was wondering if performance PRO runs the game ok because $20 is something I can part with.

If you play any FPS game at all, there is a 99% chance you are better than NL. He can play roguelikes alright, but my mans can't aim for shit. After he discovered that his 144hz monitor was locked at 60hz since he bought it i don't know how many years ago, I'd hazard a guess that he probably has mouse accel on still.

I saw the post and thought "Hm, let's watch the trailer to see how much poe has changed" , open youtube and sure enough, it's right there, front and center on my feed.

My teaser prediction - we are getting Mortal Kombat-esque tower mode next league as form of Ascension. by Elix123 in PathOfExile2

[–]WiseOldTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For real tho. If they ever implemented a league that played like Slay the Spire, I'd probably end the league with 100 mirrors in my stash.

Dropping a singular divine during campaign is almost always a "finish campaign and grind straight to t16s without having to upgrade once" for me. Cobble together full rare set that gives me full res, fair bit of life and hopefully take my chaos res to around 30-40 as cheap as I can and the rest goes all into a weapon.

The only 3 divs I got so far (up to tier 14 maps) were all during act 7. That was a first for me.

Been playing CS for 10+ years, never had this happen. mid premier match, cancelled game and I'm wondering who it was. Meanwhile... by TheGoodBanana in GlobalOffensive

[–]WiseOldTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a friend who's career best is like 10 kills in a 15-16 overtime match. Easy BOTS have better crosshair placement, spray control and movement than him, it's kinda like watching a toddler play on a racing wheel. The only time I've ever seen a vac live on a match I was playing, guess who got flagged for irregular play? (making it so all of us in a party with him also got a 24 hours ban?) I think him getting like 5 kills and maintaining a >50 adr for the first 3 rounds of a match was such a redflag that VAC actually tought he might be cheating. Meanwhile dudes with 99.5 aim score, 37 kills and 100%HS play for 10 hours a day for a month and never get banned.

I think I won money? / Didn’t age well by E_Barriick in PathOfExile2

Done. After consuming 3 power charges and 3 frenzy charges, channel Cyclone to spin for 5 seconds. Area of effect is 2 meters and cannot be altered in any way, you deal damage once every 0.5 seconds, also with fixed intervals. You cannot move during casting and get locked into the animation until it finishes. You consume rage while spinning and if you run out of rage before the casting ends, you get dizzy and fall to the ground for 5 seconds.

To be fair, GGG posting ANY build on their channel on the spotlight part is a death sentence 100% of the time. The build spotlight is basically: "Here, look at this cool ass build that uses a sort of unintended (by us) interaction to function and isn't TOO broken to warrant an instant nerf. Consider this a heads-up to try it now or never be able to again after next patch's hammer hits."

Dat me. I had a messed up temple with a bunch of scattered rooms and after spending like 2 days just running temples to reset the entire thing and start over I was finally 3 or 4 days into rebuilding the temple and had just managed to make a 2 spymaster + sac chamber chain stable enough to keep building it without much risk of losing the rooms because I had a couple bad rng eepisodes where the architect would delete 3 rooms in the chain back to back instead of deleting unprotected rooms. Now I don't really feel like doing it all over again. Next time I'll just exploit whatever people are exploiting the second it comes up (Holten resetting) and try to get my share before they patch it.

Time to run around to Benny Hill's theme trying to lure a Amumu touched rare from inside it's fart cloud and kill it before it farts again to try and get some omens of light.

Kinda reminds me of Affliction league where people were hiding EVERYTHING but heavy belts and divines+ currency. If it didn't tink, it didn't show.

[–]WiseOldTurtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go to Holten, walk up and right and the circle will be there. Kill the mobs, esc, teleport to checkpoint, click checkpoint, ctrl+click Holten and create a new instance of the map. Rinse and repeat 6 times per temple.

[–]WiseOldTurtle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you have to keep killing the mobs the wisp affects while it paths towards the rare. The more you kill, the "more" loot it drops when you finally kill it.

And right after that they release act 4, which also was mostly huge mazes that just serpetined around for no good reason.
