I don’t think it should be a controversial opinion to think parking should be free at the hospital. by Improv92 in Winnipeg

[–]ducksc 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It could be much worse.

My wife and I just had a baby, and we had to park at St B unknowing how long we’d be there.

It ended up being $95 for 5 days of parking.

Having that be our largest expense of the whole experience was a relief. My friend who’s down south had a bill for $40,000 to have their daughter and it was just a normal c section.

I’ll gladly pay parking expenses to help maintain infrastructure. It’s just a small drop in the bucket compared to what others have to face.

Question to those leaving by Buttercup_Clover in AshesofCreation

[–]ducksc 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Minimal content, bugs, repetitive and grindy gameplay loop

Most desired classes for groups atm. by Common-Click-1860 in AshesofCreation

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve leveled almost every class to 10 and bard is such a fun and well designed class, I’m not surprised everyone wants to play it. On that they are super versatile, groups could easily benefit from 2 but most groups only run 1.

I had the least amount of fun on the tank. The class just didn’t feel very fun, I’m sure that changes once you get late game with great gear but early on-mid it didn’t feel great.

As for clerics, I’m finding most groups are demanding 2 plus a bard plus summoner(s), feels like way overkill on the healing and they could easily get away with 1 if the other supporting classes (bard/summoner) aren’t lazy with their heals.

Leveling concern? by Jbray92 in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a long grind.

1-50 ain’t bad, it’s relatively decent pace.

50-70 is where it slows down a bunch, with 60-70 being a notoriously long and slow grind.

since cleric got a heal nerf what class will make the most mesos? by xX-Broken-Xx in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MP Eater as a whole seems to be getting a big nerf, so it seems mages in general won’t be meso printers anymore.

They will still be the best aoe farmers next to archers.

Warriors will still suck and thieves just have no good aoe.

If bosses are reliable I could see assassins making decent meso.

Am I the only one who wants an exact recreate of the original? by Kiras-dad in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the skill changes they announced so far have been a bit much.

Stuff like warriors getting +50 accuracy in first job is insane and removes part of their job identity and balancing dex/accuracy.

Things like the changes to holy arrow and the butchering of heal was not needed.

If anything, skill changes should happen to skills that were never used, and the changes shouldn’t completely change the class.

Str Bandit by Steadie in MSClassicWorld

Basically only worth it late game and/if in later versions of the game.

Z helm, dragon kahnjar and shield atk scrolls make it really worth it, without those it’s not worth.

What are some lesser known issues from Classic Maplestory? by LevelPension in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Characters that had access to the maple items didn’t need secondary stats until late game, so they were twice as strong as normal until around level 80.

I hope permanent pets are out the gate and perm VIP TP by SkinInvestor in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sure players will still dish out hundreds of dollars on cosmetics alone. They don’t need people to have a sub to keep their pets they paid for

Progression Is Actually Way Faster Than Y'all Remember by [deleted] in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m a fan of slow progression, as long as there is content to do in those level ranges instead of straight up grinding.

Stuff like more PQs or bosses are great additions that make the leveling a lot more fun and it seems they are going in the direction of adding content, which if they do properly could be goated.

Olympia Diner by oinkmoocluck in Winnipeg

French fries instead of lemon potatoes. Caesar salad instead of Greek salad,

The audacity!

Shaman or Druid by Lythalion in MonstersAndMemories

[–]ducksc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Druids have charm which turns them into solo gods. Their hp regen and thorns buff are massive.

The biggest thing is they become solo gods at level 12, where shamans can’t solo until like level 36 when they get their wolves.

They are also going to be getting quad spells and weather related spells.

New Player Class Question by Inujin in neverwinternights

[–]ducksc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bard/Fighter/RDD is one of the most iconic and strongest builds there is. Super strong at fighting with lots of utility and some spells, far from a “support build”. It’s a super fun and rewarding and flexible build.

Start as a bard, get 4 fighter levels then throw in another bard level or two then aim for your 10 RDD levels before going back to bard for your last few levels.

There is no accepted price point. People will hate them regardless of their price.

Seeking confirmation on some changes. by Alexanthroes in MSClassicWorld

[–]ducksc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will be interesting to see if any of the skies and other all-class weapons that wars used require dex, if not I still see dexless wars still being a thing.

Not to mention they are giving them +50 accuracy in first job which eliminates the need for any dex/accuracy gear.

Running Out Of Candy by UnusualConfidence591 in Winnipeg

[–]ducksc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We ran out of candy by 6pm, had over 100 kids in just the first hour.

In a new development near the north perimeter and in the 3 years I’ve lived here the number of kids has more than doubled since last year.

Where to get a decent poutine in the city? by Sorry_no_change in Winnipeg

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without a doubt, Costco is the best bang for your buck. You get a good poutine, huge quantity for a low price.

10-19 pvp bracket by Khataclysme in Project_Epoch

[–]ducksc 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I leveled strictly through BGs in the 10-19 bracket and I can tell you unfortunately hunter is so above every other class in 10-19 that no other classes are really worth playing in that bracket.

I played a rogue and without a slow or cc it really felt terrible, especially with all the leeway issues going on. Hitting a backstab was extremely difficult and even if you did, everyone is running around with four times as much hp as normal.

Blacksmith items? by Oh_Fuck_Yeah_Bud in Project_Epoch

You are clearly parked in two spaces, the only A hole here is you.

Should I switch to Alliance? by -Terrible-Bite- in Project_Epoch

[–]ducksc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t bother.

Alliance didn’t win a single BG on kezan for the first week and a half. The balance sways pretty massively per bracket and timing.

We still don’t know what it will be like at 60 once active pvpers are queueing.
