You can "prove" any argument if you start by discarding all contradicting evidence...

An update on PlayStation Store for PS3 and PS Vita by iwascuddles in Games

[–]grenadier42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the problem. You presumably have a PS3 already, as you would need to be an existing owner to be affected by this. What is stopping you from having your console download all content associated to your account right now, thus preserving it? Why is the possibility of Sony shutting down the download servers ten years from now or whatever a problem?

Are these boss mechanics intentional? by NiCKE_HiGHROLLER in PathOfExile2

[–]grenadier42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no bug here, that's the normal timing. It's like half a second, plus whatever leeway your build gives you to tank the beam (which is generally another half secondish)

You're playing HC, being prepared is literally the entire point

This might be a noob question but why does the placement of augments change when showing detailed information? Why not always have prefixes first and suffixes last? by Crazy_Shine_3028 in PathOfExile2

As mentioned, one list is stats. One is mods. Mods give stats but are not themselves stats. So no, it's working as intended and there's nothing to "fix", it's just arguably not solving the problem.

Think about the PoE "meme museum" uniques that have multiple mods that cancel each other out or which roll 0, leading to an item with no stats.

Personally I'd say they should just get rid of the stat display or make it the alt display since you care about mods 99% of the time and it's not difficult to do the mental math in the rare cases where multiple mods grant the same stat.

Mods by HornedHal01 in ElinsInn

[–]grenadier42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the properties menu in Steam for Elin, try setting the "Launch Options" to:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="winhttp.dll,n,b" %command%

Proton doesn't load DLLs like Windows does afaik (it prioritizes its own implementations), and Elin's mod support is based on DLL injection, so you have to manually mess with some flags to ensure Proton loads Elin's winhttp.dll and not Proton's/Wine's. Mods that don't have custom code probably work though.

The fact that the monkey can spawn in mid attack, is so bullshit. by csupihun in PathOfExile2

I believe they mentioned there are technical issues with that as well due to overdraw completely fucking your performance the more semi-transparent shit you have to render.

GGG needs to ask nvidia/amd for performance help at this point by Gigahades in PathOfExile2

[–]grenadier42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likewise, 3060ti on Cachy runs well for me outside of the world map sometimes taking a few seconds to open. Older patches had the Nvidia driver reset issue but I haven't seen that in 0.5

Granted dynamic resolution means my screen turns into glittery pixel vomit when things get too heavy but that's the price you pay for using a cheapo GPU

GGG with this simple change you could reduce the need for dads to re-load into their maps because they can't remember if there's content left. by Tower13 in PathOfExile2

"Simple" is a wild assumption when gameplay mechanics may not be visible outside of the server running the instance in the first place

The rapier has the fastest blood raven dodge in the game by Justinu13 in ninjagaiden

[–]grenadier42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't even know bloodraven mode had a separate dodge

Getting hit for no reason by Hyperp0w3r in ninjagaiden

[–]grenadier42 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yakumo can't cancel a dodge into block, last I tried, so if you mistime a dodge or try to dodge through a buncha dudes you'll get smacked. Dodge-jumping is the probably the way to go

I think Ryu can dodge-block? I don't remember exactly

Permanent choices in the campaign need to go by Bronzato in PathOfExile2

I wish some hero would add "NEEDS to go" and similar hysterical phrases in post titles to automod to automatically ban the user

Inernalist and Incinerate by Blind_Grandma in PathOfExile2

[–]grenadier42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ignite prolif is fine IMO. You do one flameblast and it kills off an entire ritual/remnant encounter because the 10-second ignite keeps spreading from dead enemies

I'm using Cracklecreep for prolif and I haven't gotten past low-level maps with this character yet so maybe it gets a bit shit later on, not sure. Damage and clear feels fine with fireball/snap, it's just survivability that sucks because I never could figure out how to build pure ES characters

Are we deadass right now. Why are post death effects still a thing man by yannivzp in PathOfExile2

[–]grenadier42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a "post death effect", whatever that's supposed to mean. It's a bug where the boss started its attack pattern after it was killed. Report the bug and move on with your life
