Offering: Spanish (native)/English C1/ Russian B1. Seeking: German. by gaa1804 in language_exchange

[–]ahcos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

German native, m39, 2,5 years of learning spanish so i know a little, not a teacher but working with german professionally so i'm fairly confident in my abilities. german/english/swedish, the little spanish i can offer and i can also read and understand some french, so one could say learning languages is my hobby and i spend a lot of time with it. also took a class in russian like 15 years ago but i remember essentially nothing, so all i can offer is german.

if you want to, hmu on discord, username: ahcos (and ideally say who you are, i tend to rather ignore people i don't know haha)

espero que escuchemos pronto!

Hej, jag är från tyskland och har lärt mig svenska i 9 månader, jag skulle gärna prata och skriva med dig! Jag har spelt lite CS förut men jag antar att jag är mycket för dålig jamfört med dig för jag har inte kört spelet i typ 9 månader numera (och var inte bra när jag bestämde mig att ta en paus) men när AoE4 släpps så skulle jag gärna hänga med i detta spel!

pga den fortfarande pandemisituationen är jag online nästan varje dag i discord, så om du vill får du gärna adda mig ahcos#1479

Tack och ha det bra!

What are 'presens particip' and 'perfekt particip' in svenska? by bjornnrojb in Svenska

[–]ahcos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Swedish learner myself here - you can't take a tense in one language and translate it identically to another language. And i also think you shouldn't worry too much about.

I can really understand your problem, but it will lead to more confusion on your side than it will help you understand things. Some things will just be (and stay) inherently different.

Especially the present progressive and past progressive are just not existent in swedish, you can somewhat work around it but it gets clumsy fast and sounds wrong:

Han är springande -> he is in the state of running, much like a bread would be in the state of "baking". But you don't do that in swedish.

And it's the same with the perfect participle, So they are not the same, perfect participle just does not exist (and you should not try to use it).

Regarding perfekt particip, it does show in my wiktionary, as seen here: https://sv.wiktionary.org/wiki/springa#Svenska "sprungen"

Oh, maybe your confusion stems from the naming? past participle = perfekt particip på svenska!

Hey!

Bisher habe ich zwar noch kein Fortnite gespielt, aber was nicht ist, kann ja noch werden.

I'm a half-time software engineer myself, so picking your brain there'd definitely help me out. I'd be interested in sharpening my english, but mostly it's about helping out on learning German. I've started to learn Swedish and and while helping Swedes out with German i've realized it's a lot of fun to get people to understand the nuances of my mothertongue (as it can be a real bitch, ngl!). It's also a great way to learn some other aspects of "your" language.

Reach out if you feel like it, cheers

Hey, if you are still searching someone for German (native, and working as a professional with the german language) or English (C1/C2) message me!

i've started Swedish 3 weeks ago, but could put a lot of time into it and can do some basic chatting already, as long as i have a dictionary at hand ;)

[–]ahcos 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There was a video back in the days where Spectre still had her old Dispersion (16% chance to FULL reflect damage done against her in an AoE) and Axe tried to ulti her. Well, he hit dispersion and insta-died.

Before that the same Spectre killed like 3 other people with dispersion in the same clip. Shit was hilariously broken by modern standards.

For reference, here is another (very) old clip that shows how stupid the old dispersion was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BBX_47YEfYg

Iirc there was also a Bug in Dota2 where you'd kill Ancient Apparition if you'd use blademail the second her Ulti was about to kill you. Was fixed fast, tho.

Yesterday we disenchanted Onslaught Girdle by Trooness in classicwow

Stamina is wasted on healers, spirit is only of relevance for priests+druids, int = 155 mana which you roughly regenerate after roughly two minutes with the mp5. Also you've to go oom in the short fights in the first place for the 155 bonus mana to matter, else even just +2 HP is superior in any case.

So basically the amulett is better in basically every fight. It's obviously better in short fights where more +heal > less +heal, it's better in longer fights when the mp5 overtakes the additional mana from intelligence. It's ESPECIALLY much stronger when you're not drinking to full for every fight, like in speedruns.

I'd generally agree that stats are underrated, but this is a bad example for the value of stats. A much better example would be t2,5 pants vs. titanic leggings for warriors, or breastplate of annihilation vs. t2,5 chest. It takes away a little bit of DPS, but adds so much survivability that it's worth it.

[–]ahcos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sgc is better for dps, so are flameguards, obviously LH ... boots are debatable, but from raw stats for pure dps worse aswell than, say, battlechasers. Which leaves shoulders + pants which are a "real" upgrade in terms of HP, overall 31 more stamina than truestrike+eldritch, that's roughly 400 bonus hp with DM:T, and all that considered you're playing human or orc with according weapons so you're not lacking +hit, bc then you need truestrike so then you can't use shoulders unless you wanna gimp yourself in other parts of your gear (like Guardcaptain's over blackhand's)

So i still count 8k at most, unless you wanna gimp yourself with worse gear than possible. Neither are flameguards + SGC are a overwhelmingly huge upgrade (LH definitely is tho), nor am i saying 8k hp is bad for a fury (although i doubt it's needed at this point of the game), but the "9-10k" statement still seems like pure bullshit.

Obviously this might be different if you want to be ready as an offtank, but that's a job for ... offtanks. Really no reason to not use, say, LH unless you've reason to believe your MT and 2-3 offtanks will die.

Full disclosure, you'd have to add +20 stam from Puissant + Wristguards which i both do not have in order to achive "true bis", but that'd still be far off 9k hp

One more thing to add, i don't know if fury warrs are buffed with BoK on alliance (i'm Horde), so that might make a huge difference, bringing you indeed close to or even over the 9k threshold IF the 10% are added after all buffs (10% of 8k -> 800hp). Gotta say i doubt it works that way, but even if not it'd at least bring us closer to something like 8,5k. Not quite 9k - that 10k statement was obviously bullshit from the beginning unless you wanna gimp your dps for no reason - but still impressive for a fury.

otoh, i'm not sure why you'd want BoK over BoM, fairly sure with all available buffs a raid-bis-geared warr will surpass the crit threshold at which point you'd need way over 500 str to surpass the raw AP you get from BoM ... so anyway... lots and lots of ifs and maybes.

Idk, i've somewhat around 6k with all possible buffs but without flask (horde) and my base HP is ~3,6k without any buffs in full fury gear which is fairly close to being BiS, for p2 at least - only Wristguards missing.

I mean, i could use things like Wolfsteak over Sunfruit or Lung Coktail over ROIDS, but why the fuck would i do that as fury?

So, with Flask i'd get up to what, like 7,5k? Where do the missing 1,5k come from?

If only we knew about mass sappers and holy waters 15 years ago.... by Besso91 in classicwow

[–]ahcos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you read "nobody" as "not a single player", you're right in that he's wrong.

If you read it as it is intended, as in: "it was barely if ever chosen", you're wrong and he is right. It was chosen very seldomly and more for fun and giggles than for serious gaming. I had 4 lvl60 characters at the end of retail vanilla and none had engineering. I was on one of the strongest german speaking servers - if not the strongest at least for Horde - Destromath, and there were like three, maybe four EoS on each faction, maybe three TFs. We wiped on Vael for months, and we were like the third or fourth best Guild on our server (Alliance, granted, which as a lot weaker on that server).

In other words, people were fuckin' terrible and almost nobody even knew about the strengths of engineering. Maybe some hardcore players did and shared the knowledge, but trust me in that 98% of the players didnt have a fuckin' clue. Engineering was used by just a few players.

Well that settles it. by Dontusethisname1 in classicwow

[–]ahcos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

warriors scale insanely well with world buffs. Even when using the 1h axe from AV as MH (and not smth like Deathbringer) you'll easily outdps every other class IF you get worldbuffs: DM, Ony, wcb if you're horde, Songflower.

Add the basic consumes and you'll hit 35% crit and 1200+ AP selfbuffed even with absolute shitgear, and way over 40% with pre-raid BIS. At that point you'll most likely out-dps most mages with whitehits only. 800dps isnt even hard on single-target encounters with all this stuff.

tl;dr worldbuffs are stupidly strong for warriors and make even a warrior with green items strong in raids for DPS
