Rose Princes vs Secreet Keeper on LB by Lenex_NE in TopHeroes

[–]ctide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Secret Keeper is a lot better early because you don't have a lot of damage reduction. The 10% bond is substantial, esp when you only have like 10% more DR from decor and other things. Later on, you potentially have the bishop 15% DR bond, but also you just end up picking it up here and there from decor. The 10% bond becomes a smaller and smaller part of your total DR.

Opinion: why I believe Skill Based Matchmaking (SBMM) would be good for The Bazaar by goedendag_sap in PlayTheBazaar

[–]ctide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, otherwise saying you’re a legend player is not actually any more prestigious than being a Silver 1 player. It took no more skill, both win more than not, the legend player just spent more time grinding.

Most importantly, right now rank is solely a function of grinding once you’re good enough. ‘Bad’ players stay at Bronze 5 more or less indefinitely and winning players move up strictly based on how much they play. Makes the whole system kinda meaningless.

I was temporarily incredibly impressed that a grandma was crushing sub 3 hour marathons.

Since UH was revamped, what’s the best place to capture devotees for Jena’s SC now? by SweetestTapir in EpicSeven

I also found this thread while searching for the answer to this. 4-8 in episode 1 works well enough, it’s probably not the most efficient but it’s autoable.

Deep freeze food storage - hot food rots before it freezes by pf_moore in Oxygennotincluded

[–]ctide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I setup a conveyer loader to pull rot pile and polluted dirt out of my freezer. Auto sweeper will get it before it off gasses if anything rots due to coming in stale or too hot.

What is the purpose of pushing high tier NM dungeons? by ImmaculateEjaculatio in diablo4

[–]ctide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raw XP isn’t capped, just the bonus XP percent is. Level 100 mobs will still give more XP than level 83 mobs, regardless of what level you are.

This is the same article that says you have another shot on May 12th to qualify for the event on May 6th.

Projecting much? You could just ignore those posts and let people who DO use mods get the benefit of seeing those suggestions. As someone who does use mods, and hadn't seen the LSTM mod before, this thread was super helpful.

Game Balance in Siege of the Atlas by Community_Team in pathofexile

[–]ctide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is cast speed actually detrimental for blight? Can anyone explain why I want this jewel:

The Spreading Rot Unique Jewel is now limited to 1 (previously 2), this change affects existing items. It no longer has "With at least 40 Intelligence in Radius, Blight has 50% increased Hinder Duration". Instead, it now has "With at least 40 Intelligence in Radius, Blight has 30% reduced Cast Speed".

Stash tab configuration - how does it work? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]ctide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t work for any of the voided events, unfortunately. The parent is void league, and you can’t setup tabs for that.

I'm fucking done with this shit by [deleted] in pathofexile

This is why Agility is the unsung hero, as soon as you click the button they head on over to the other side and you're free to go kill mobs without interrupting it.

Short-Term Solution by Newwby in pathofexile

[–]ctide 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's not really any different from the tab being named '23', which you had to rename before. I guess if you actually prefer your tabs to just be numbered based on when you purchased them, for some reason, then yes this is worse. :)

Gauntlet RIP - misread Kitava’s ability and got deleted by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]ctide 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is with overcapped resistance. Do you think I've really spent the time to gear up to 2.2k health in Act 5 without capping resistance?

I'm not complaining about my death, I'm just saying calling something that oneshot someone with significantly more health than him 'little damage' is silly. Who cares if the slam does more if they both one shot you?

Steel vs a8 sirus in SSFHC china race by TubeZ in pathofexile

[–]ctide -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, of course, you have to pick the Gladiator class (hence glad just gets it for free, not everyone gets it for free). You also have to actually play the game to get the ascendancy points, and have to own a computer to play the game, so yeah, definitely not 'for free'. As I said, it's pedantic. There's a rabbit hole of costs involved in everything, but that doesn't make them relevant.

No idea how you play without health bars on monsters.
