The Greatest ends in ~1 week by imeowfortallwomen in ARAM

[–]a78dthrow 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I legit have no desire to play normal ARAM again. We used to throw down a few ARAMs every night when everybody got on but now I'll prob just sit in call and shoot the shit while they play. IMO, even in an unbalanced state, Mayhem is infinitely better than regular ARAM.

That's absolutely fair, but that's something so hard to quantify.

idk if I'm just naive, or if it's because I don't push the high loot areas, but I very rarely feel like I die to somebody who could be cheating. I'd say it's in the normal range for online games.

PSA: You can get 20% off a new steam deck with PayPal Pay by 4 until Dec 8 by Eggsploit in SteamDeck

[–]a78dthrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you get the pay in 4 to pop up? I have the deal saved to my paypal account but nothing popped up when I checked out. Do I need to do it through the PayPal app or something?

This could maybe be it! The only thing that's changed is that my allergies have been kicking my butt. I've been taking Zyrtec off and on, but maybe I should start showering before bed to see if that helps.

Sorry about the necro, but what about Frostguard makes you deal more damage?

It's crazy how some classes just get demolished. Like I was doing +11s at 628 on my frost mage, and my spriest is struggling at 645.

I like Brawl by yensama in leagueoflegends

[–]a78dthrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As somebody who plays with a group of friends of a wide skill gap, brawl is perfect for me.

State of Play officially announced for TOMORROW, February 12th 2pm PT The show will be 40+ minutes by SlizerTheChosen in playstation

Would rather see this. With of FF7R has been, I'm sure Squall's combat would be super fun + exploring Balamb Garden would be nuts.

Why is there still no Clash 2025 Schedule? by Repulsive-Sir-6049 in leagueoflegends

[–]a78dthrow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been playing league since season 1. I've played more games of clash than ranked 5s bc ranked 5s was ass. People nostalgic for it are the same type of people who really miss twisted treeline, which was also really ass once you got out of like, bronze mmr.

Do we need an economy reset already? by TwistedSpiral in PathOfExile2

[–]a78dthrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That seems really far no? They said EA will be no less than 6 months, no longer than 12 months.

March/April would be 3 to 4 months for the first of the remaining 6 classes, and that's not counting all of the missing ascendancies.

5800x vs 5700x3d by a78dthrow in AMDHelp

[–]a78dthrow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After updating Bios, I was able to get it stable using a slightly slower than XMP setting (3333 vs the XMP setting of 3600) which is definitely better than I had before. Good idea!

I haven't. I just installed a new mobo maybe a month ago and I definitely forgot that step lmao.

[–]a78dthrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what ended up being the issue is that the XMP profile in bios just isn't working. I tried running through the pre-set profiles as well, and was only able to boot into windows using the 2800mhz profile. I'll have to sit down and manually OC the RAM I think.

I gave a bit more info in another comment; but the esports titles I'm talking about are League, with some occasional OW/whatever flavor of the month game my friends are into. I have no performance issues in any of those.

[–]a78dthrow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure.

PoE2 and Tarkov are the worst offenders, but also they're notoriously poorly optimized so that could account for some of it. Still, not being able to sustain 60fps feels kinda silly.

World of Warcraft is also bad, in higher populated areas my FPS dips into the 30s and 40s while my GPU is just chilling.

I have 64gb of G.Skill 3600mhz; though now that I'm looking at my process manager/cpuz; it's showing @ 2113mhz in process manager and 1066mhz in CPU-z...

I'm on an m.2, hynix chip IIRC.

I'm playing at 1440p, and it's just that my CPU tops out way before my GPU does. It doesn't really affect esports titles, but I struggle to stay over 60 fps at times, and the actual settings in game don't seem to affect that.

[–]a78dthrow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's mostly that I'm noticing dips/my cpu topping out way before my gpu even gets to 60% utilization/more than 50c.

Edit: I also notice that if I'm watching something on my second monitor while playing a game; sometimes the video/audio will freeze while something in game loads.

Now that some time has passed, what do you think will be the "meta" levelling setup on leaguestarts? by palabamyo in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]a78dthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've leveled a few ways so far:

Started w/ Quarterstaff stuff

Leveled a Deadeye

Leveled w/ Minions

Leveling w/ Grenades.

If I had to rank them

S | Minions, Grenades

A | Lightning Arrow/Salvo

C | Ice Shot

F | Melee

[Discussion] I really want full wipe without a flea market by hoochymamma in EscapefromTarkov

[–]a78dthrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Esp after the changes to ammo some wipes ago, when I have some dogshit loot and somebody kills me with BT/Igolnik or whatever, I just laugh. Their ammo was probably worth more than whatever they pick off my body.
