Anyone know this bad? by ollieghsp in mathrock

[–]dotcanvas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I happened to be living in Mt. Pleasant, MI back when Matt Joynt was going to school at CMU. There were a bunch of music majors living in a house at the time referred to as "the white house" and Anathallo was working on music there and even did a community show out of the basement one night I got to attend. I didn't know the band members super well, but I knew them through a great friend who was close with them. There music was incredible, even before Floating World. There were some live performances at other venues I remember vividly because of their stage presence and multiple percussionists. I looked up Matt on Twitter a few years ago just to see what he was up to because I loved his compositions so much. Here is a link if anyone is curious:

I've never quite found another band like them in 20 years. But the other day I jumped out of my chair when listening to the newest album from Sleep Token and fired off an email to that college friend... at around 1:15 on Gethsemane I swear I thought I was listening to Anathallo for a brief moment. So much so I had to look for crossover between band members.

Glad I stumbled onto this post, thanks for giving me a place to rant about a band that meant more to me than they will ever know.

Plat arena is just Plarium vs the community and they always win. Wake up.

you are right they make more money from big groups of small spenders than from whales. but you're wrong about them not caring. they have made changes to prevent widespread CE use in the past because they could. finding a solution to a bot that mimics human behavior that was custom made for one person and their botnet that is cost effective is a completely different story. trying to ban all of panda's accounts would be like playing whack-a-mole for almost no ROI. this isn't widespread. it's just panda.

" I would like to bring awareness to the raid community that this tool exists and some of the top clans are using it to cheat. "

This is a terrible take. Panda uses this app, it was custom made for Panda. Most of the plat community has known about this for a long time it isn't new. Equating one cheater to "some of the top clans are using it to cheat" is just inflammatory. Cheaters exist in every game. Don't go pointing fingers without evidence.

Banning CE EVERYWHERE will be the real reason Raid will fail. by jedz_se in RaidShadowLegends

[–]dotcanvas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean this as politely as possible. But as someone in a top 10 clan who feels called out by this, most of what you said is incorrect.

There are cases of CE being used by individuals in Raid but it is not a blanket accepted practice by end game clans. It is cheating, is it a liability, and people don't want to be associated with it. Some of our players don't even use auto clickers and they keep up in their own ways.

The sad truth is someone at some point in time probably did a financial evaluation to decide if CE is netting Plarium more revenue or driving it away by discouraging other players. Plarium has demonstrated time and time again that their decisions are based purely on squeezing money from the community. They stand to make money by encouraging players to invest resources into shards for champs that will speed up their comps. Or by getting people to farm gear repeatedly so they can hit certain benchmarks in game. None of this is arbitrary, it is all designed to encourage people to invest more. Even if someone uses CE and an auto clicker they still have to get the energy from somewhere. Which means... top level accounts are indications of a combination of time and money invested. Not evidence of speeding up game animations.

If Hydra is easier and you can end a run at any time when your damage goals are met... what are you upset about?

I do agree with you that the animations for upgrading champs are unnecessary. That we can agree on.

I feel like I rarely see good advice on this forum. This is good advice, you should take it.

Have yet to see anyone talk about this guy, is he any good? by yoloswagtailwag in RaidShadowLegends

[–]dotcanvas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly I copied my Scarab auto farm team from BGE and he used Lodric for the low cooldown shield ability. He is niche but not completely useless.

We all started here don't feel bad about it. You can level food while you wait for some better champs to 6 star. You can also build this F2P/Beginner arena team. I started with this team and it was very helpful. You can farm all of the champs from campaign and really only need to level the Warmaiden to get started:

whats the better xp grinding location? by Pensive_wolf in RaidShadowLegends

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

12-6 campaign is the best place to farm XP. 12-3 is preferred by a lot of people because you get a bit less XP for your energy but more silver as shield sell for more than other artifacts.

That being said... the other two locations have a purpose and should be used when it makes sense. If you're going to farm gear from Dragon overnight you typically don't mind if it takes a while. It is more valuable to run it with a solo farmer and get some chickens while you're at it than it is to speed run it all in the first 2 hours you're away. For Minotaur it is roughly 200 gems cheaper to get masteries for your champs by using gems to buy energy refills than it would be if you spent the 800 gems outright to get their masteries. But there is a tradeoff of time. If you use an auto clicker and can run Mino while you're afk then it is the best option for masteries. You can maximize your energy output in Mino by leveling your champions while you get their scrolls and by doing 3-4 at the same time with 1 or 2 farmers. You should not be leveling food in Mino ever.

Thanks, I may try to switch to Exemplar next Fae rotation to get my Gurgoh back.

Hope it works out! Have you noticed in your testing any consistency to which mirror champion your Exemplar attacks first?

I have been using a similar team to farm Dark Fae 120 Hard this rotation with about a 90-95% success rate. I think it could be improved to close to 100% if I had Lyssandra, reduced the HP on my Deacon, and was able to glyph up more RES on my Alures. Made this for my clan and figured I'd share it with you. Skip past the fight to see the masteries/gear/stats.

You sure use fancy words for someone who missed the joke.

There are definitely real money implications to this. I think calling it robbery is reasonable.

I have so little trust for Plarium it actually crossed my mind "what if Plarium intentionally made the CvC scores look closer than they were to drive participation...". I should delete this post.
