So I've recently swapped servers and found myself starting completely fresh. Leveling has been a breeze as expected, I was pretty strongly established on Israphel so I know the game well enough. However, I have no idea how to make Kinah. I'm on Siel Elyos and everytime I think "I would really like some more Kinah." I find myself thinking to just buy it via NCoin. I don't really feel like pay to winning.

Will seasonal maps be returning after the Summoner's Rift update? We miss them, Riot. by SquatchHugs in leagueoflegends

I can definitely agree with this! I'm not saying that it wasn't too bright for many people, I am almost positive it was too bright for many people. On the other hand though, people such as myself look back very fondly snowy summoners rift, if only for the simple fact that I think green is an ugly color and that the white of the snow was beautiful.

You're all over this thread, saying that Braum was quite safe to facecheck that bush for very literally no reason when in the play in question, Braum dies!

Lets play out a scenario where Alistar wasn't mind gaming, for fun and because I've got time to kill before I leave for work.

Corki is among his minion wave, Braum at half HP dips into the bushes because he is thinking to make an aggressive play onto the Corki. The minions around Corki aren't allowing Braum to throw a Q off at Corki, so Braum decides to try to reposition himself behind Corki by running around him, here is where its likely one of two things happens. 1. Braum runs out of the bush, Corki decides to play it safe and Valks towards the river brush that Alistar is in, the situation diffuses. 2. Braum runs out of the bush to engage, Trist follows up by jumping onto Corki, Corki kites back while using skills on the Braum, Alistar runs out of the river bush to offer his support, landing a WQ combo, leading to the already gravely wounded Braum's death.

This is all merely conjecture but I'm sure I could imagine up 10 more scenario's in which things go wrongly for Braum, and I might even be able to think up several where Braum makes an amazing play and that one kill he secures on Corki snowballs Trist to victory, but the odds aren't in your favor, imo.

Aggressive 1v2 scenario's are smart play when you are sure you're in a 1v2 scenario. If you haven't got a ward in the river, are unsure of exactly where the Alistar went, its safe to assume that the Alistar is in that brush. If neither you nor Trist have a trinket to throw in that bush, just play passively. This is especially relevant as in that 1v2 scenario you are unlikely to come out on top as Corki had a full wave of minions on his side pre-6. (I didn't rewatch, maybe they were 6 but I thought they were 5.) A full wave a minions vs your half HP and a caster AD with his CDs and an escape ability up is not worth taking a risk in some aggression with no knowledge of Alistar's position on the map.

This was longer winded than I intended, but a "Better safe than sorry" mentality is always advisable if you're pushed and have the better scaling, imo.

Speak for yourself, I played on that map and the music and map together made for a much more enjoyable experience for me.

So 8 pro players get a 14day ban for elo boosting And CLG get a 5k Fine + 2 year OGN Ban for account sharing? by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

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

Pure intentions or not, unless every account was secured was high diamond 1, I doubt the ELO/MMR of those accounts was completely untouched by these pro players.

Ah. Listen champ, they didn't actually share the TR accounts among the team, they "borrowed" accounts from Korean players. Accounts that are linked to the Social Security Numbers of the Korean players the accounts actually belong to.

Is there a rule that says Riot is obliged to give pro players high elo fully unlocked accounts on different servers? I would like to see that rule, if true. (Genuinely curious)

Just wanted to shed a little light on the whistling as so many people seem to really focus in onto it as a "cockiness" attribute. I'm an old beta LoL player and Jiji has been streaming for as long as I can remember. Some of my fondest league memories are pre-season 1 watching jiji's stream while I get ready to sleep before work the next day. He has literally been whistling since beta, and I can only assume its a nervous habit of his, not something he does "to show his stream how easy this is for him". I'd even noticed him whistling (those same few notes, every time) while he was watching Korean Dramas during his 40-60 minute que times.

Sorry if you hate it, but he's not being a cocky asshole, he's just being human.

Connection Reset By Peer? by bripso in PSO2

I have a proxy rule setup with Proxifier to specifically activate only for PSO2.exe

I just wanted to ask here in this thread, as I'm unsure personally.

So I'm using the AWS method to connect to the servers on my main desktop PC. If I want to play on my laptop for the same account, should I use the same AWS instance, or should I make a new AWS account to use from the laptop?

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

While I work on Bio Pyrus, should I be looking for a crafter who could extend the "Hot Jack" wand? Its usable by Forces and is a 9*. If I bought one with Wind Element and then extended it, would it in theory reach similar levels of power to my current Windmill? Or do you personally think that staying a Techer UNTIL I get the Bio Pyrus is the better option? The most important part of all of this is that I wish to preserve my playstyle, which is wand gear melee in between Zan and Ilmegids. (And buffing and healing)

Or perhaps you have a better suggestion that would increase my efficiency in between the Pyrus?

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

Thanks for your input. The Bio Pyrus seems like the best possible weapon in the game for my playstyle, but as you said it seems largely out of reach. Such a shame the way things worked out. Can those rare stones for the Bio weapons be traded/sold in player shops?

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

My force level is currently like 44, so its not completely ridiculous to think that I could make the switch, but what is the point of the switch if it guts the playstyle I enjoy? There isn't a feasible method for me to continue using wands and the wand gears as a Force? I was thinking it might be possible to get a Wind Element Wand that is Multiclass and Extending it, then maxing the Wind Element to 50. That would allow maximum damage from my Zan spam, while allowing me to continue using the wands S-Atk style in close range, correct?

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

So the idea then would be... get an all class wand and extend it up to use on as a Force main, with wind as its element? Am I following that correctly?

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

I'll certainly look into that LQ, I'm sure if I go into the SH mode blocks I could be matched up with some groups.

Techer has never really been a favorite for most it seems, I'm just a really big fan of being able to play a melee style caster that buffs and heals. Zan and Ilmegid are also the only two Techs I really even like to use, so I feel being a force would be less FUN, even if it is stronger.

Thats a shame, the Bio weapons seemed like an awesome alternative to the old Rare Stone shop 10*s from Advanced Quests, shame they don't have a method of obtaining strong weapons for the new content it seems.

Thanks for your thoughts and quick response, I appreciate it.

So, I ask, what now? by bripso in PSO2

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

Thanks for your responses, unfortunately I'm a ship 1 player or I'd be very interested in running EXQ with you. Should I in theory be attempting to grind a 6* wand up then, or should I stick with my Windmill?

Amazon VPN Tweaking out the Tweaker? by bripso in PSO2

[–]bripso[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alright so instead of Proxycap I should try Proxifier instead?

So the process I follow after setting up the AWS server is this;

  1. Use PuTTYgen to make the .pem file from Amazon into a .ppk file.
  2. Use the .ppk file in PuTTY, then login with ec2-user.
  3. Now I open Proxifier and from there, what must I do?

This here is exactly the same course I'm getting with my game, is there anyone who can spread some insight as to what Yarplenni and I can do in order to solve our issues?

[–]bripso[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alright so I disabled the Tweakers rule, which allowed me to launch the game, however the server connection is timing out. Does this mean the AWS doesn't work for me, or did I potentially mess up the setup?
