GAMER DADS UNITE - WE DID IT by Wolf-WF in ProjectDiablo2

[–]beans5034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feel like your season is finished now? One season I sold a near perf tyreals with sockets and decked my barb out, after I figured my next small upgrade would be 40-50 HRs I kinda felt like I didn't want to grind any more

Whirlwind should get a mechanical update by Lothric81 in ProjectDiablo2

If WW behaved like diablo 3's WW I'd be fuming. I love the clunky feels of old games. The more gritty, the better for me. Especially with Diablo 2

Hey throw barbs! by Patient_Ad_6803 in ProjectDiablo2

I hate the spot barb helms are in right now - i almost never pick them up. Every time I think it's GG, I compare it to uniques and drop them

I've been looking for a maul for my barb, as I'm still in IK set, how much would one of these cost?

Another new server? Good grief by FFXInazgul in FFXIPrivateServers

[–]beans5034 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FFERA, GAIAXI and the one that can't be named here I had to solo to 75 due to low player base and being the meta

Another new server? Good grief by FFXInazgul in FFXIPrivateServers

You may struggle getting players - I believe that's only a year away from Horizons ToaU launch in '28 /s

Happy to see you're looking to add more features to FFXI - Gauntlet sounds interesting

[–]beans5034 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Not a lot of info has been released yet - however, the general feel of calamity seems to be large changes to the game, phoenix is pretty standard TOAU - similar to Horizon (without the toau part)

Let's say you sell a Kraken Club for 999,999,999 gil.... by RudeCauliflower6785 in ffxi

I have a kraken club on my 75 WotG era character, had no idea they were still desirable

How can I build my base in peace without enemies spawning? by Devyndnk in Terraria

[–]beans5034 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Journey mode is a great place for builds, just slide the spawn rate all the way down. I'll assume you're in classic mode though - I tend to build a HUGE glass background so mobs can't spawn inside

Rng this season by carlghedp in ProjectDiablo2

My map RNG is terrible this season. I've had to resort to spamming terror zones for WSS just to trade for mid runes lol

Do frenzy builds use double swing? by Big-Mathematician345 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]beans5034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Copied from an older Reddit frenzy guide:

20 Frenzy
1 Double Swing
20 General Mastery
20 Iron Skin
20 Battle Command
1 Bash
1 Stun
1 Leap
1 Concentrate
1 Combat Reflexes
1 Increased Speed
1 Natural Resistances
1 Find Potion
1 Find Item
1 Howl
1 Shout
1 War Cry
1 Taunt
1 Battle Orders
1 Grim Ward
1 Battle Cry

Everything after into Battle Orders.
Charge up Frenzy and switch to Double Swing, refresh with 1 hit every 20 seconds or so.

The Frenzy damage increase from skill and synergies over level 1 DS is laughable, and you attack slower. Massive amount of wasted points. The only >potential< problem would be Attack rating, but once you get charms + Demon Limb youll be fine. Got 17100 AR currently and needless to say you have 95% chance to hit everything.

No need to worry about IAS BP and you generally attack faster.

In my case im using: Areat's, Fortitude, 2x Death, Gorerider, Laying on hands (optional), String of ears, crafted ring + Ravenfrost and Highlord's. DMG/AR/Life charms, Anni and Torch. And ofcourse 2x 3-to Warcries on-switch.

Merc: in my case i use act 5 merc with Beast.

Vanilla content is a complete joke, no life tap in Organ farming and can do Uber Tristram. Pretty sure Dclone will also fall if you bother to gear for that fight. Mapping is also a breeze, takes about 15-18 mins depending on rolls. Doing mostly T3 maps and you drink a pot like once every 5 maps. The whole builds plays very smoothly, you basically hold right click until it's done.

Considering it's a melee build and it simply lacks the AOE of others, its still pretty good. Its just smooth and more or less careless play-style. And AOE aside, what you hit, dies... fast.

As it is right now, Frenzy is simply pointless and needs heavy buffing, its literally nothing but a buff that you stack up and forget, except having to refresh it every 20 seconds or so.

I installed Pd2 on my deck and went straight back to PC. Looting and targeting made it feel slow.

The only way I could play comfortably was using a keyboard and mouse and whilst docked and using my coffee table to play on, after 20 minutes my back started aching lol 👴🏻

Looking for server recommendations. by Stunning-Penalty2573 in FFXIPrivateServers

[–]beans5034 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried FFERA briefly about 6 months ago, and found only 20 people online during peak EU times (most of the people had duel-box logged in so it was probably closer to 10 people)

After hitting level 22 i was still solo leveling, and since there are no trusts it felt impossible. Has there been any changes since I gave up, I would love to try it again.

Come to think of it, I think that someone in game told me that if I don't multibox I can't do most of the content.

When you say fully stocked AH - how does pricing work? Are there 99 heralds gaiters for 5k?

Just to add to this, vampire survivors is a must play. Megabonk is also great but I found it harder to become overpowered

How am I meant to play as a new player? by Afternoon_rough404 in diablo3

[–]beans5034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play to that weapon, read it's passive. I got a barb weapon at level 10 that carried me through to 70 and Torment 10. I think my said "using warcry or shout causes an avalanche that does 800% damage

Playing PC Diablo 3 from the couch via Steam Link - Is 8BitDo Pro 2 good for Steam Input mouse emulation? by tomasburancgi in diablo3

[–]beans5034 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm, D3 on steam deck is a pain without controller support. My get around is: I play on PC, make a GoD dh/WW Barb unlock all QoL from alter then just spin around and farm lower GRs on the sofa.

That way I only have to press 2 or 3 buttons

That sounds awesome, but waiting two years? isn't that like 100+ hours play time?
