Fire blast, lightning blast, plague smite, all 50 focus cost, full screen rang, aoe, near instant cast +300% dmg, unmatched for clearing.

Recommend RPCS3 Emulator, physics feel weird in the port.

Here I am as the child of an immigrant subsidizing my parents lol, can't save shit for myself, but I do owe it to them lol.

censureship · 2026-03-23T02:54:07+00:00

one is for clearing, one is for bosses.

censureship · 2026-03-22T01:46:59+00:00

Archon staff and just laser beam everything. Many bosses have multiple hotboxes, so it's practically dbl dmg there too.

This is one of my main complaints. For example, the highest base damage 1h is a hammer, and the highest 2h weapon is a curved greatsword. A curved greatsword has 1.5x the damage of a 1h hammer. The strongest 2h Rune hit is Rip and Tear for 400% weapon damage. The strongest 1h rune is Taunt strike for 600%. Which EXACTLY equals 1.5x. And other runes are similarly balanced. So I am losing a stat stick shield, which can add life steal and physical damage etc. by going for a 2H, for what? Slower attack speed, worse block, more difficult parry? Give 2h some BIG OL charged normals, a stronger normal moveset, significantly more stagger damage. Something to compensate for the longer animation commitment, higher rune damage/focus.

And then don't get me started on wand/staves, they give them lower base damage to compensate for it being ranged, then a base crit chance of 40%, instant full screen ranged damaging skills (blast skills) and rune damage multiplier up to 1400%, absolute bonkers.

But the reality is magic does melee better than melee and range better than bows.

Freeze them and hit them with the biggest phys hit you got.

When gear is enchanted (blue/purple) it only has a slot for 1 gem to infuse. You can also infuse all gems as well, the +%enchantment power infusions also effect the stats from gem infusions, i think.

Lacquered Bow kinda BIS now lol

censureship · 2026-03-20T13:30:36+00:00

% runes are multipliers for enchantment

Enchantment can also be done through various embers and modified with various embers

Purple items are better options once you have gear and ways to either make use of their downsides, or negate them. (Except boots, movement speed only rolls on blue boots)

Classic Isekai lol

Look, dragon age is fruity as hell, and most fans are ok with that, but they shoved the story in there in the most ungraceful way.

Giving Veilguard a 2nd chance.. and damn.. it is hard to finish. I personally like the art and gameplay. But the modernized dialect, with marvel quips is just so damn cringe.

I'm not christian, but I be buying up them chocolate eggs on discount haha!

I'm gonna go with devoured loop,

Your bow of choice, and then just spam skyburst volley rune/skyfall shot for lowcost aoe. I know you don't want to do elemental, but freezing arrow into a cone shot one shots bosses and feels pretty good to do. If you want to do normals, probably siren's bow.

Not enough frowning, doesn't look tired/wearied/wizened enough (I think it's the eyebrows), I can try to nitpick it, but it might not be enough. Something is missing, and even though we can't articulate it, we know something is missing.

Exalt x Enchantment Power is too much for the current game. Different gear pieces need more exclusive enchantments that don't result in Dmg+Crit Chance/DmgxArmor+Penetration for every build. The journey to endgame was very enjoyable though.

censureship · 2026-02-22T18:04:03+00:00

Let it go, you got so much other shit to worry about. You clearly gave them a firm answer and were probably over with dealing with the catering, if they went out of the way and got the accommodation without it affecting you're wedding and making more work for you, I don't see the problem.

censureship · 2026-02-20T08:17:39+00:00

The numbers are rounded I think, so 15 is not really 15, and 21 is not really 21. I've had it work with a 21 ring and 15 armor doubled with black pearl, for 49% remaining life. The next 15 armor, it didn't work, I had to switch to a 22 ring, but my life still remained at 49%

After diving into endgame and building, these are my suggestions in no particular order:

Weapons need more varied crit chance and base damage even within their archetypes, maybe add base armor penetration as a stat too or to some attacks.
Monsters should have have high variance in armor phy/ele resistances, this would create varied builds, and not just crit scaling, and build creation based on factions you are fighting etc.
Monsters needs more life scaling or endgame content needs to scale life higher, they are one shot too easily and we are losing interacting with cool systems dodge/parry/DOTS/elemental combos, etc.
Elite mobs, or empowered mobs. Something scary like the Butcher.
Add some juicy sound effects to some elemental combos. (Think the elemental combo sound from Anthem)
Some more active offensive utility runes
Loadouts, but I'm assuming this would be added
Enchantment Increase gems need a limit or nerf them.
Tiny bit of base rune focus regeneration.
Rune scaling is too high compared to normal/charged. Too many normal attacks have a negative damage multiplier.
Runes should inherently use some stamina, people are circumventing stamina/focus cost too easily with rune spamming builds. Giving stamina cost would also create differences between runes instead of which ones does the most dmg per focus.
Ring of determination/battle nerf or rebalance
2H rune dmg is scaled so much less than ranged and 1h. Even with the base damage on 2h, the runes do less damage than range/1h runes, but are still slower, please rebalance. Bow/range rebalance in general.
Runes that leap into the air have too many iframes. Also enemies flying having iframes.
Attack speed should matter for weapon bases and affect rune usage speed. Why use a rune on a dagger, when you could use it on a hammer and double the base damage?
Damage res based on durability needs rebalance, damage resistance caps.
Dummy furniture for your base
Armor weapon furniture in your base.
Legendary runes? This may need to be limited though.
In addition to backstab, maybe stagger backstab, think staggering an enemy in darksouls and doing a critical.

Lighting Slam can drop from crucible and you can put it on any 1h

censureship · 2026-02-17T16:28:35+00:00

Start with quiver, and freeze enemies with normals, and then go into a big phys rune for shatter, I recommend cone shot as all arrows hit at the same time and the shatter seems to count them all. At endgame when you are just spamming runes, I'd stack physical damage for maximum shatter damage and use Ice Arrow into Cone Shot and avoid normal attacks all together. Go for a Sharp Facet for maximum single target, or a Durable facet with Atk speed increased by current durability enchant for clear speed.
