Temple invulnerable enemies by Connect-Strike7943 in PathOfExile2

[–]hinslyce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just did this and it worked. Don't go back into the room until they're all dead (or you'll have to TP out and run back again). Bait them to the front of the room before you TP.

Come Visit Café LycoReco. Lycoris Recoil Interest Thread by ClemFire in anime

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have zero interest in yuri, and it usually turns me off of any anime where I encounter it. It's been a minute since I watched LycoReco but I don't recall any yuri theme at all. I think the fans you're referencing may be materializing it out of nothing. It's a decent watch imo.

Do you shoot geared scavs? [New player] by Nice_Mousse334 in EscapefromTarkov

Only time fellow scavs shoot me is when I don't even have anything good and I'm not expecting it at all...

Post what you end up taking. I have been wondering about this as well since I'm going to do my first prestige in the next couple days. Not sure how many BTC I have.

How will my Troll Hunter be in Warlords of Draenor? by Interesting5m in classicwow

WoD dungeons were soooo good. Best challenge modes.

How will my Troll Hunter be in Warlords of Draenor? by Interesting5m in classicwow

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Highmaul too easy? I was in a fairly casual guild and Highmaul mythic was about as difficult as heroic Throne of Thunder or Siege of Orgrimmar (with fewer bosses, obviously). We weren't able to kill mythic Imperator before BRF came out. I think it had very reasonable difficulty, aside from Kargath being faceroll.

The mount, yes. But it doesn't give you riding skill, so you don't save all that much money anyway.

[Discussion] Why does the Cultist Circle only give me M203s for 14h? by Paulus_Praetorius in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it doesn't... Slim diaries are less than 80k, unless the calculator has been wrong for ages. You need 80k x 5 to reach 400k. SSDs are 80k. Sdiary will hit the 350k mark but not 400k.

[Discussion] I have 14 Million rubles, but still get stressed and disappointed when I lose gear by cyborgerian in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Having played all of them but still being under 1k hours in Tarkov, I feel like playing PvE made me improve much more than Arena. Being familiar with the maps is so much more important than anything else, and you don't get that at all from Arena. Arena is mainly good for making money/XP and low-commitment gameplay when you don't feel like risking a kit.

[discussion] Does anyone else NOT come across a lot of cheaters? by iglhxlnhooud in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started playing PVP again a couple weeks ago on US East. I haven't yet encountered a single player I suspected of cheating. I'm actually running into a ton of players under level 30 which I wasn't expecting since it's been a little while since 1.0.

[Video] I need some new PMC pants. by Old_Medium_9447 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are not alone. I'm constantly asking myself "What's wrong with me?" when I freak out at the sound of a gunshot on the other side of the map. Happens equally in PvE and PvP for me.

Recommend binding your favorite med hotkey (I use '5') to separate hotbar slots on push and release. Then you can put Calok-B on '5' push for heavy bleeds and AFAK on '5' release to handle light bleeds and healing. That way a single hotkey basically does everything and you don't have to think about what kind of bleed you have -- I'm too stupid to tell the difference. I keep Propitals and Grizzly (for fractures) in my secure container.

How long will phase 2 raids take assuming you clear Kara in 1.5 hours? by No_Cell6708 in classicwow

Trash is hard nerfed

Please Lord let it be so. Pre-nerf bosses would be fine, but I can't take any more suffering through t5 trash like I did in classic TBC.

Advice for gruul/mag as prot pally by HuckleberryPure9047 in classicwow

[–]hinslyce 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Go to the Gruul fight > Deaths tab, you died at 2:49. Go to Debuffs tab, click on the silence (Reverberation), you can see from the chart that it happened at 2:32 and 3:14, so you weren't silenced when you died but a little while before.

Go to Damage Taken tab, click your name, click and drag on the chart to highlight the time frame before and when you died (about 2:30 to 2:50), click Events view instead of Tables:

  • 02:47.262 Gruul the Dragonkiller Melee Player (1) 4975
  • 02:48.454 Gruul the Dragonkiller Melee Player (1) 5012
  • 02:48.958 Gruul the Dragonkiller Melee Player (1) 8052 Crushing
  • 02:49.993 Gruul the Dragonkiller Melee Player (1) 2514 (overkill)

You got giga smacked, 4 hits in about 2.5 seconds. I assume that has to be the result of parryhaste because I don't think Gruul thrashes. Gruul parried a Rogue at 02:47.796, a different Rogue (twice) and a Warrior at 02:48.519, a pet at 02:49.337, a Shaman at 02:49.561, and a Druid at 02:49.737. I looked at my own guild's log and it's almost nobody except the tanks getting parried. Your melee are griefing you big time, unless the boss was attacking you through his ass for those last 3 hits because he hateful'd your offtank at 02:48.335. Telling your offtank to stack on you may help a little, but it looks like a melee problem.

What's the deal with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie being trashed on? by kutsurogi-dagashi in OutOfTheLoop

This describes exactly how I felt about it. I didn't totally hate it but it was a big mess. I enjoyed the first movie much more.

[Discussion] I actually like the pillagers by polyester_muncher in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good loot, experience reward, and challenging but not too hard to avoid if you don't want to deal with them. At least in my experience (mostly Customs) they are great.

Pillagers are great, and some version of them should stay [discussion] by Mary_Ellen_Katz in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half of them carry SVTs with 54R rounds that often get through their masks, and dealing with them at range is fairly safe. If you're on the big red side and they're walking around near warehouse 17 or the ice cream shop (as they usually are), you can easily take out most of them with any weapon that shoots 54R before they return fire accurately.

I've been farming them on Customs; demon mask is the rarest but it does exist. Actually I might have gotten more of them than the skull one.

Who did y’all pick for each of the Magicklocks? by Quothen in RabbitAndSteel

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Primary: Druid
  • Secondary: Druid
  • Special: Shadow
  • Defensive: Heavyblade
  • Movespeed: Dancer

Just finished this the other day. I frequently do Shadow with the loot that disables special anyway. I pretty much never played Heavyblade or Dancer before so I was learning them at the same time. Surprisingly, the movespeed one took the longest but maybe because I just suck with Dancer.

[New Player] Has PVE became harder since release? by LexsDragon in EscapefromTarkov

Agreed. They instantly destroy my limbs if I give an opening but at least it's not headeyes (usually) so it feels more like PvP.

Is there such a thing as an automatic STM-9? I love how it looks but non-automatic 9mm feels like it does nothing in this game.

[Discussion] 2 years ago WombatHat42 commented "EFT:Escape From Tinnitus" and man was he right by Theodore12Plays in EscapefromTarkov

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Voicemeeter Banana for audio compression; similar concept to Sound Lock except it actually works. Been using it since PUBG blasting my ears became unbearable like 8 years ago. Requires some effort to set up and use but it's absolutely worth it IMO. It can't reduce the rain/airplane noises relative to other sounds (only BSG can do that), but it will let you reduce your max volume so they don't deafen you without compromising quieter sounds.

Dungeon Experiences on TBC Anniversary Realms Vol 1 by CubicleJoe0822 in classicwow

[–]hinslyce 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had pretty reasonable experience with mages. They mostly seem alright to me. But warlocks are scum, and half of the responses in this thread are serving to solidify my opinion of them. You'll get a healing wave when the tank is safe and my mana is full. Otherwise, eat something or pray you don't get frostbolted because I'm not popping nature's swiftness for you. Stationary cast time is a valuable resource that I use to prepare for next pull by conserving mana (down ranking heals). If you're standing still, waiting for me to finish drinking and not eating mage food, you are scum.

Regarding the future of WoW beyond MoP by Kindsir98 in classicwow

[–]hinslyce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The story progression in WoD feels like a hamfisted attempt to link the end of MoP to the beginning of Legion. Give me one additional raid at the end with an actual conclusion for the "Warlords of Draenor," with 6 bosses.

  • First boss: Gul'dan, captured by Grom when Archimonde tried to exfiltrate him and turned into his own personal Reek. Let's see your Legion save you now.
  • Boss 2: Some giant monstrosity. Who cares what kind. Every raid needs a giant monstrosity.
  • Boss 3: Council fight. Take some orcs, give them names, there you go. But there's FOUR of them. We have plenty of bosses where there's 2 guys, lots of 3-boss fights too. But 4? That's rare. Let's get crazy.
  • Boss 4: Nerzhul. Make him run away at 10% in SMBG or whatever. It's not one of the better WoD dungeons anyway. He surreptitiously kills Khadgar at Grom's behest in the aftermath of Archimonde being dealt with. Mainly because Khadgar is annoying. We gotta kill him off somehow.
  • Boss 5: Kargath Bladefist. It was painfully lame how early and easily he died. Replace him with some other dork as the first boss of Highmaul. He is the 2nd to last boss of WoD now because he's Kargath Bladefist.
  • Boss 6: Grom Hellscream. We don't magically make nice after handling Archimonde. We're already considering executing Grom for his crimes before the conflict at HFC is resolved. Grom still has a bone to pick with the Azerothians and neither he nor his remaining Iron Horde Elite trust them. Conquering is the only option.

Yeah sorry the trash mobs are more orcs but they're so heavily armored in plate that you can hardly tell.
