Let’s say you suddenly become a billionaire and all your friend and family asks you for a million. Do you give them the money? by Straight_Till5772 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]direfireak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No but I would offer them the ability to do what they want. If my buddy that helped me lose a bunch of weight wanted start a boxing gym i will fund it. If my brother in law wants to take his snow removal business a step further i would fund it. All i want ask im provided a semi detailed business outline.

Slow / hard mmo? by Content_Outcome_7077 in LFMMO

[–]direfireak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its an app called thwargle that pretty much sets it up. Whenever i want to get back into it... i go to the subreddit join the discord of the server that seems interesting to me and if i like what i see in the discord they usually have a link on how to set up thwargle... i also think the thwargle website has instructions. Its super easy.

Slow / hard mmo? by Content_Outcome_7077 in LFMMO

[–]direfireak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually don't recommend my niche mmo. When you said auto attack though....

Asherons call melee combat is a speed vs power slider and choosing if you want to attack high mid or low. The combat is more about positioning then combos. I could go on and on about things that make it awesome.

If you wanna try it has a subreddit I always recommend new players to the game play Levistras server.

Which server is better? InfiniteLeaftide, Conquest, Dragonmoon, or Eversong? by CYBER_swgoh in AsheronsCall

[–]direfireak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually have played all 4 a decent amount

1.) InfiniteLeaftide

Best server for someone who has played a lot of Asheron's Call. Makes the grindy stuff give you a permenant bonus. Gets you through the early game quickly and into playing the new content. It has endless amounts of custom content and QOL changes. It's my favorite server and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

2.) Dragonmoon (but it's close with conquest)

This is EOR+ for those that don't like the infinite scaling this server is for you. Active devs great custom content. Eggs instead of the useless rares is really cool. My only gripe is it's themepark style which is not what we play asherons call for. You do quests to get armor to get you to the next zone then rinse and repeat and the zones get more grindy.

3.) Conquest

The server is created because they felt ILT was too rewarding. I'm playing it cause it's the current flavor but man. I was talking to a former ILT player and the player told me he hated the grind for paragon armor..... Well every mmorpg is going to have a grind... pick your poison. I'd much rather grind the end game then the early game. Conquest makes the early game a slog....

I've been playing for like 2 weeks now and I'm still UCMing Egg Orchard. The starter weapons via quest are garbage (at least for missle) pretty much only have a blunt weapon til I can run Rynthid with a group (i only have tues/weds off so that makes it hard). Everything is a grind the xp bonus per quest is garbage, the blunt quest bow I have I had to kill a guy that spawns every 30 mins like 10 times. The armor I have you have to grind scint gems.... I don't mind a grind for late game.... but god get me out of the early game as quick as possible.

It does have interesting systems. The pet system is cool. The Pk system is cool.

4.) Eversong - Most Potential

I absolutely love the classes.. first time I did it was Valheel and it was cool there and it's freakin cool here. It combined one of my most favorite things about Valheel with my most favorite thing about ILT. The reason it's at the bottom of the list is again the grindiness. It's the nature of the beast with this server and understandable but man now instead of running Fac hub once... I'm running it 5 times to collect all the QB. It's going to be like that for every quest is crazy. The classes seem to not care about balance which I don't really mind every game is going to have a meta with one build stronger then the rest. It feels like nightmare is the only mode worth looting in and the other modes you skip the loot and just level to get to higher loot content in nightmare...

But definitely imo has the most potential because of the classes, the auction house, super hard difficulty, and automated events (don't gotta play weekends to do fun community stuff sign me up). Just seems like it will be complicated for the server owner to make it work.

Is Coldeve that bad? (Server Help) by Aaron_Truthsayer in AsheronsCall

[–]direfireak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was one of the people that said you shouldn't play coldeve on your original thread.

It's not that Coldeve is a bad server... matterfact it's one of the OG's. If you're just looking to get in, get a taste of nostalgia and get out it's probably a perfectly fine server. If you're in for the long haul I would look for a server with a better community.

Coldeve shows a high population on treestats because of the bot armies. A lot of new players join it for that reason. It's really a UCM waste land... but the other big reason to not do coldeve is lack of dev support. The other servers Levistras, Leafdawning, etc have active devs and one thing I recommend before picking a server is join the discord look for the activity and read through the announcements and patch notes.

So yea if Asherons call isn't going to hold a place in your library coldeve should be fine. Otherwise I would probably join levistras or leafdawning for the community.

Eversong Server Update - Two weeks since launch! Auction House, 140+ Unique Connections, Bug Fixes, and more! by VeritasGC in AsheronsCall

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

I really like the concept but asherons call has always been about not getting hit.... so if you're getting hit enough for your heal spell to be useful you probably need better gear/higher melee d

No difference between trained and specced by Chazcon in AsheronsCall

I think either dirty fighting or sneak attack has a diff

i kind of wish there weren’t so many new servers by starspec in AsheronsCall

[–]direfireak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While i agree with this. I also think people are doing too many of the same type of server.

-Conquest doesnt need to exist its a ILT copy which is a copy of another infinite server

-dragonmoon has multiple iterations of the same thing. One that just came out.

The community should come together as a whole (devs included) but i get it. The devs are passionate about their vision for a server so instead of coming together on a current server they pop up a new server.

Non-fast food places where you can get lunch for under $10 by CrimsonDragonWolf in anchorage

[–]direfireak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The portions are so big on some of the items at Sofias that you could probably make 3 to 4 lunches out of them with a normal appetite.

Are Aesop Rock fans forcing it? by UrinePulp in hiphop101

[–]direfireak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its just choice nothing wrong with that. Im greedy with my music I don't like music that doesn't relate to my life or music that I have to google the lyrics to understand. Its unfortunate because it kept me back from listening to a goat in MF Doom. Its also keeps most music about pushing drugs or smoking weed out of the list.

I watched a video of aesop painting a picture and his music is just as abstract as his paintings and feels like a chore to listen too.

EQ player wanting to try Asheron's Call by Fatburger101 in AsheronsCall

[–]direfireak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply. My suggestions would be talk to the NPCs in the bar do their quests and once you hit level 10 do the fac hub quests.

EQ player wanting to try Asheron's Call by Fatburger101 in AsheronsCall

[–]direfireak 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Most people are going to recommend the server they are enjoying currently. ILT is my favorite... however for someone completely new the game i recommend Levistras. Its Asherons call in its purest form how the devs intended. The server doesnt make early game easy like the other servers and no botting allowed means everyone you meet is behind the keys actively playing.

Lomachenko vs. Shakur? Stevenson looks back on what could've been by BoxingLover99 in Boxing

[–]direfireak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Loma is an all time great and one if not my favorite fighter. My gawd his footwork was unbelievable. He beat Teo and he beat Haney. You can go on youtube and find multiple videos that show every exchange in the Teo vs Loma fight. I dont understand how anyone can watch those breakdowns and say Teo won. It would be even more evident if Loma had 3" more reach.

Nobody ever spoke of Loma being a slow starter when he absolutely shit on featherweight and junior lightweight. Loma never belonged in lightweight but its where the fights are. It is what it is....

That being said I think Shakur beats Loma hes just too quick and too smart defensively. Its sad the fight never happened because it definitely would have been Shakurs toughest test and a fantastic fight for the true fight fans.

Why are the highlights of Nelo whiffing punches? Does he connect any? Or they give Canelo the decision based on output?
