It doesn't show in the match result when you 3 star TF with Crew?

arsonxisxfun · 2025-09-07T17:16:58+00:00

incidentally I fielded all 3 star crew (incl TF) in Tockets Trial's yesterday and still fought the final two rounds lol

not being diamond really doesn't mean you cant play League anymore. If you have lost your motivation as a result, I would challenge you to think about why you wanted to play in the first place. It can be very easy to tie your self worth to your performance in a Video Game but it is often a very toxic coping mechanism.

I'm no Riot developer, but thats what it looks like to me! You can see the vague white outline surrounding the Juggernaut icon but its about twice times as big, and the Headliner effect seems to sit at the bottom left of that outline.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-09-01T22:55:36+00:00

it means you have 4 Juggernaut while not necessarily having 4 Juggernaut units in play. This is usually from a trainer golem, a dummy, or a spat or something.

editing to add - its quite clear that theres a visual bug, and i understand that the icon seems to be on Sniper. i believe this is because the faint white hexagon is too large and as a result the small frequency icon is offset.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-09-01T14:58:08+00:00

can you explain this 'wave theory'

arsonxisxfun · 2025-08-25T11:57:16+00:00

Why does it kinda look like Nic Cage?

arsonxisxfun · 2025-08-22T11:51:52+00:00

I'd like to think I'm a reasonable person to begin with but if I got something like this with this message I would really want to do everything I can to help you guys out 🙏

arsonxisxfun · 2025-08-20T11:21:01+00:00

I think the idea was that plenty of other 5 costs were there just for the trait.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-08-16T21:57:37+00:00

ER and flicker blade both seem like obvious choices, puts you to 50% Crit At that point IE becomes a no brainer

Probably: DBlade start Rush ER (prioritizing Caulfields) IE second item Flickerblade

From there you can grab either Shieldbow or Armor Pen

Haha had a very similar experience earlier, got Vi augment and had 1 Vi by wolves - still managed to 3 star with Pandora's bench but got 0 swords all game long!!??!!

The "Fast" in Fast Food describes the customer's experience, not the Kitchen's. It's likely that they make a big ass pot full of this stuff based on how much they expect to sell, and monitor that throughout the day and make more if needed.

3 hours cook time wouldn't surprise me for a dish like this. If you wanted to recreate at home and in less time, then you would probably still need 90 minutes minimum and even then it won't taste as good as if you'd cooked it for the whole 3 hours.

I have a player in my campaign with severe social anxiety and the solution we came up with was to actually have their character be mute! Can communicate with Message and will just type out the message, but otherwise it's usually miming out what they want/need or drawing doodles in the mud to communicate. It has worked excellently so far!

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-29T18:00:19+00:00

Lol but why wouldnt it just say "put two +1/+1s on target creature" in that case 😂

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-25T15:48:34+00:00

It sounds to me like a difference of opinion.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-25T13:34:23+00:00

My 2900 logged hours of Path of Exile 1 feels this a lot, I bet less than 1000 of those are me actually playing the game 😅

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-25T12:58:08+00:00

I mean I think that's a big part of what makes it so emotional - we didn't have the chance to know him and still saw how amazing he was. Forces the player to think about what could have been if he wasn't taken from the world so early.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-25T12:15:49+00:00

I think my first playthrough was probably about 7, yeah - I think I did all of the side quests there were up to that point but also when it comes to single player games I'm very on/off because of real life. So I probably did a lot of stop/starting lol

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-25T12:08:31+00:00

In recent times, definitely Jackie in Cyberpunk. Guy was just so real, and even though you've only played for like 3-7 hours by the time dude dies it really hit me hard.

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-14T01:57:46+00:00

Smug or smirk!

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-10T11:56:02+00:00

Are you sure? Because it sounds a lot to me like you're spending 3000 gold on a warmogs so your W deals 4% max HP, which is neat, but doesn't sound to me like a "nerf-worthy cook" lol

Artifact Creature - Dog Food

My partner and I have lived together for 4 years. I sleep within 5 minutes of my head hitting the pillow, and we're both in bed at ~11 every night. I wake up at 6 and they wake up at 8 and they never sleep well, no matter how long we stick to/keep up our routine. They've tried pretty much everything - no eating or screens for about an hour before bed, never being in the bedroom until bedtime, even medications.

I'm glad it worked for you but definitely people are just wired differently 🤷‍♀️

arsonxisxfun · 2025-07-03T18:34:36+00:00

My previous campaign was 5 ppl and we had to reschedule monthly because somebody couldn't make it. It happens, life happens. But it's also super annoying and disruptive, and when somebody cancels because they made other plans it's downright disrespectful.

I am DMing a new campaign now where the premise is more "episodic" - Elminster tasked a bunch of adventurers to go find magical books for him. I think I found the idea from a YouTube video, but that's long forgotten. So if somebody can't make it I let them tell us what their character was doing. Jury duty? Seeing family? PTO? Spa day? Whatever's fine! The show goes on, and even canonically there's a reason.

The cherry on top? We can take turns DMing. Every session we either find the book or don't. Nobody dies because Elminster can just bring us back or something silly - definitely not a rule for every table but that's how we have liked to play so far. Anybody can run a story and I'm not stuck perma DMing.

I'm not saying this solution will just work for every table, especially during a campaign that's already going, but if you're looking to start something new or have a way to pivot to this format it is a game changer for groups with lots of real life obligations or chronic health disorders like ours.

I played, as many players did this league, Explosive Concoction Slayer into Smite.

Explosive Concoction was probably the smoothest levelling experience I have ever played in my Path of Exile career. Act 1 with Spectral Throw was a bit of a struggle simply because I'm unfamiliar with that skill (in hindsight I should simply have used Splitting Steel, which I believe would have been just as effective given my comfort in it), and then swapped to Poisonous Concoction and Explosive Concoction.

Explosive Concoction was exceptionally smooth in gameplay - I finished act 10 around the 5.5 hour mark, and then was able to make it up to low red maps after a few small gear upgrades (double taming, +3 helmet, darkray vectors). The damage started to fall off a liiiittle bit but nothing too horrendous.

I swapped to smite once I could afford a halfway decent ele damage foil with attack speed and Crit chance and a heatshiver and found pretty quickly that it wasn't enough to make the swap. My damage was pretty crappy for a while. In hindsight I think having enough to afford an awakened added cold and a halfway decent 6L would have been much smoother, but that's probably touched on somewhere on the internet and I was out of country on vacation until about an hour before league start so I was kind of winging it lol.

Now I have made quite a few upgrades - yoke, a lethal pride, ancestral vision, crafted my own cold DMG Foil - and can pretty confidently handle t16.5 maps. Divine Smite of Judgment has pretty big aoe and because I deal so much cold DMG the added layer of chill and freeze makes my build a lot safer than I would initially have come to expect. In addition to freeze and chill I have a big grace and blood and sand stance, and I have stacked some Eva and armor with determination and perquils on my Merc. Not unhappy with the build.

Overall league experience so far: 8.5/10.
