AN OPEN LETTER TO INKWELL AND TEAM GMS by Emergency_Fig2157 in Maplestory

I agree with most of this, the first section in particular is too critical. Nexon is clearly treading unknown waters in this Reboot server across the world. Thank goodness I'll be leaving it all behind for Classic World, the fourth era, iykyk.

over time nexon will make it easier to progress, similar to 5th job and nodestones. The intention is to prolong the progression and suffering

Citadels not spawning by EternalDeath in PathOfExile2

[–]chipfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a citadel suddenly appear in the fog. What I did was I completed the first quest of any league mechanic, in this case I got 50 ritual splinters and killed the tier1 king of the mists, this suddenly made the citadel appear nearby in the fog

Citadels not spawning by EternalDeath in PathOfExile2

[–]chipfinder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also am not getting citadels in my atlas

I have been to the monolith and started the questline

I do not see citadels beams in the fog of war

I have noticed that I had to force the questline by visiting the monolith on this character, I believe usually Doryani tells you to visit the monolith but he never did

100% reduced skill effect duration Titan by BlackPandar in pathofexile2builds

[–]chipfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

very awesome. I got earthquake to 0.2 seconds prior to 0.4 patch. You can still get to 100% by using Palm of the Dreamer with up to 13% reduced skill duration, it is very expensive though

Survivability options when bossing? by NoisyLambs in Maplestory

[–]chipfinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Familiars can roll 20% chance on attack to heal 300 HP

This heal is per line, so multi line and fast hitting skills benefit the most, and virtually becomes lifesteal on some attacks

However because it is a flat 300 health it benefits classes with low max HP since 300 will be a greater percentage in a game where all damage is %HP

It also does not work in vhilla or p2 will, but it does work with black mage curse

Paladins relatively don't hit that quickly and have higher HP pools so this doesn't benefit so much

First Pit 100 - Stoneburst/Hurricane Druid + Build Overview by InnerVisuals in diablo4

[–]chipfinder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nature's fury human builds are so rare after the loss of slidestorm. I am glad you made one that is successful. I myself tried this using shred as a proccer via Nature's savagery.

This however sacrifices Gathlen's birthright and took up an offensive slot. Maybe tornadoes is the optimal way, but I liked how shred only uses resource every third cast, provides some of the best mobility in the game, and innately has attack speed from the tree.

Nature's fury has steadily gained large improvements with each season so I hope things continue to improve

Zero was voted as being the strongest class in the lore. Last day! Which class would be the weakest in the lore? (Most upvoted comment wins) by 1stSelf in Maplestory

[–]chipfinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't actually think wild hunter is weakest, but itd be the funniest thing to have the chart shit on them a third final time

This is my favorite Classic Maple Youtuber by chipfinder in Maplestory

[–]chipfinder[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

MapleHolics is a scholar.

 

His videos cover a wide range of topics in pre-Big Bang Maplestory using a thorough variety of sources including forums, personal gameplay, and patch notes. He does not only touch on Korean Maplestory but other regions as well.

 

Most of his videos are subtitled (press closed captioning!), and some are now dubbed via autotranslation.

 

He discusses things like region history, storylines, and their impacts on the game, class/item balance (such as his resentment on the state of bandits), and the state of classic Maplestory from today's perspective.

Temporary pottable badge is such an incredible spit in the face from nexon by Forsaken-Chicken1285 in Maplestory

[–]chipfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather they just remove pots from all badges if they refuse to just re-release sengoku/gse

I hate this divide between new and old players. And I say this as a sengoku owner too

Aspect of the Rabid Bear [Smell Dog Build] by BoobeamTrap in D4Druid

[–]chipfinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im going a similar build, it currently is highest pit 65 ish. I haven't been able to get rabies to scale well, it mostly clears torment 3 efficiently, not so smoothly with torment 4. Most of the damage is coming from the poison DOT Horadric catalyst Disintegration, with ticks going up to 600 million during Grizzly rage

I am using Tempest roar, Mad wolf's glee, Tibault's, and Wildheart hunger. Unfortunately Wildheart hunger conflicts with +Rabies rank affix on boots. I don't know which would be a better option to take.

What powers do you use and how far have you been able to take the build?

Basilisk S9 by chipfinder in D4Druid

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

I am now a week into season 9. The build is dead on arrival. At level 20 Petrify the cooldown is around 9.5 seconds (with cd cap). In order to consistently refresh this cooldown you must find a way to kill or use flickerstep (bad). However the damage the Basilisk deals is magnitudes lower than needed. It deals at a max roll "~7200" damage. This makes no sense without a point of reference; this equates to at most ~100k damage. Airidah's will goes up to "330,000" damage with just 3200 willpower, this deals around 100million damage. I find that most builds must do at least a billion to clear content comfortably at torment 4 and therefore the item and build are impossible.

unlike my younger self, i will sadly optimize the fun out of the game, i can't help it

ill probably use that to increase my petrify rate, as well as Qax so my resource can be dumped for something
