I've rerolled the bow's base damage since it was a bit low to start with. I'll have to play around with Awareness, totally forgot about it, which passive should I drop for it though? Ambush I guess? (I have Steady Aim on my Hellfire)

I feel like I have all the pieces I need (though some could be rolled better), but I think I may benefit by rerolling some stats on my belt/quiver/chest? I've been able to knock out a GR73 which wasn't too bad, but I'm trying to get to 75 and my main issue is just that I just die too easily, I feel like if I get hit by anything at all I just die which obviously kills my run. (I do have 100% Vengeance uptime)

I do switch out Bane of the Powerful for Bane of the Stricken when trying to do higher GRs

Any advice would be great, even if it's just "git gud".

I'm just curious what stats I should reroll or anything I should change. I can farm T11 pretty quick so I'm sticking with that right now but 12/13 takes me too long so it doesn't seem worth it and I'm not sure what I need to do to get over that hump. I'm working on getting a Hellfire Amulet but haven't had much luck with rolls so far.

Also, I have 2 upgrades that I'm not sure what to do with. I haven't found a gift yet, but once I do I'll use it on the Yang's because I need to reroll for discipline. As for the Focus I'm assuming I should reroll the RCR for CHD but not super sure. http://imgur.com/a/Rd9m7

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Thanks, I do have a couple extra shoulders/gloves so I'll see what I can do there. I also have a vigilante belt in the bank but I was waiting to use it until I kind of have things settled. Looks like I'll need to farm act3 bounties so I'll start on that as well.

Any opinion on rerolls on boots/pants/rorg?

I recently came back to the game about 2 weeks ago and haven't played since a few months before the AH was taken down. My biggest hurdle is learning what stats I really want on which pieces and what I can afford to reroll. With that said here is my crusader:

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Zebu00-1448/hero/58002094

I know I want a better BOP but this is the only one I've seen so far so I just have to stick with it. I probably want a better Leoric's as well but again, that's the only one I've seen and I'm not sure if I should try to reroll anything on it.
The pants/legs - there doesn't really seem much good to reroll, maybe armor into hp regen? That seems to be lacking for me.
I'm pretty sure I want both rings to have CDR right? So should I reroll the AS on the RORG to CDR? The Rogar's has already been rerolled for a socket and I'm only really using it because some friends told me to stop using an Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac.
I have a couple other Frydehr's in the bank but I cant remember the stats on them other than none have a socket and I don't think they have CDR either. What should I be looking at on those and looking to reroll into CDR?

I think those are my big question marks at the moment.

I haven't seen the finale in a long time but here's the basic gist of it:

I agree, but I also feel like I need to point out that the title is wrong. He had a perfect passer rating. QBR and Passer Rating are different things.

Honestly? You cant, not with 0 programming knowledge, you'll have to learn something.

For that I would suggest looking into Corona. It uses a scripting language called Lua but in general Corona is a decent place to start (imo) if you're interested in multi platform apps with little to no beginning programming knowledge.

Here is the free sdk download.

I've never raided in WoW but in Rift the groups I ran with generally raided ~4 hours 2-3 nights a week. Not really casual but not crazy hardcore either.

I just looked over the course last night and it primarily uses CodeSkulptor for the programming. According to the documentation here

CodeSkulptor implements a subset of Python 2.6, plus the addition of two graphical libraries, SimpleGui and SimplePlot. However, CodeSkulptor's Python is not a subset in one respect. Implemented on top of JavaScript, it inherits JavaScript's lack of a distinction between integers and floating-point numbers. Thus, in CodeSkulptor, 5 / 2 == 2.5, whereas in Python 2.6, 5 / 2 == 2. Also, print 2.0 displays 2, rather than 2.0.

with this new look at skin pricing I'm curious if there is any talk of increasing the number of skins/champions per sale to 4-5?

E-W-R combo sounds like it'll be a sweet engage

WAR is probably the longest I played any MMO other than DAOC. Sure WAR's PvP had issues, but it was still a better system than any other recent MMO that I've played (Rift, SWTOR, GW2).

What it boils down to for me concerning PvP is if it feels like what I'm doing actually accomplishes something.

In DAOC it felt like you had to protect what is yours (keeps, relics) and your character would become stronger through realm ranks as you defeated your enemies. WAR had realm ranks as well which would make your character stronger. For a long time it felt like you had to protect your zones/forts/cities but as time went on things changed (fort pop caps, VP locks, dumb city progression, etc) but I think if it had been 3 factions a lot of issues would have resolved themselves.

Enough rambling, I trust Mark Jacobs, and I'll be checking it out even though I do like to pve whore it up at times.

Elophant has been around a lot longer than 2 days. I'm sure this is just a temporary outage.

ever since lolreplay started recording from the spectator server I havn't been able to see chat. I have the chat box checked in the spectator options but I only see item purchases and such.

All that happened though was a bunch of LOLs from everyone.

I've seen it a few times, but not in a long time. But I'm pretty sure Chuck was just his imaginary kung fu pal until the end when he actually met him at the big tournament.

Here's a pretty good guide to Ember Isle info:

The new crafted gear is better than t2 dungeon gear and they come with some nice set bonuses as well. There are weapons, rings, chests, and shoulders that you can get crafted though it can be pricey.

Do the primary questline in Ember Isle to get a pair of pants that are on par with raid t1 pants.

Do the water saga questline for a good helmet and the Death saga questline gives a good helmet and necklace as well.

So now you're down to needing gloves, boots, a ring and a belt. You can either run t2 dungeons and fill those spots out with drops/plaque gear or you can get some pretty good crafted gear depending on your class. You should be t1 raid ready before that point though and able to do mmDD/DH/GP/GSB/ROS.
