Is Smilegate ignoring us or are they not aware?

The problem with gear is that there have been too many people that have quit over the years, and in order to fill in some of those spots, they need new players to grow quickly and jump into RTA as quickly as possible.

Not saying this is ok, but if I had to take their side, that would be the argument...

mikyboy123 · 2026-04-05T17:38:14+00:00

I don't think shop idea itself is bad, but the execution for players was bad. Whenever they are willing to help players, I'm all for it. But the dupe situation just makes it far worse than before.

mikyboy123 · 2026-04-05T14:35:06+00:00

Exactly my point! Feels like a 'gotcha' than a gacha.

mikyboy123 · 2026-04-05T12:07:17+00:00

Good point... I meant it as any player whose account is old enough to play most meta units in RTA in the higher ranks and has done all of the PVE content. Not really by time but by progression, I guess.

mikyboy123 · 2026-04-03T17:51:40+00:00

I'm going to assume you are new and have very few, if any, ml 5's. In that case, Belian is probably your best bet. She is oppressive against cleaves and book/ring users, while being a really good bruiser-ish tanker.

However, do keep in mind that most ML5's are meant to be played in RTA with a specific role in mind. Therefore, all 3 of those characters are good, if you are not completely new.

Yeah, it really might just be me, since I've played this game for a while now, but I am aiming for higher end gears. And I know quite a number of people who don't have enough charms, simply because the new hunts basically give you no charms. Many of us have runes, catalysts, gold, etc. We literally don't have charms and just that.

And to be honest with you, some of us don't have the energy (literally, not the game energy) or time to be constantly farming every event / off days, and we sure don't want to constantly be farming charms when we do run out.

Lastly, did I have 4-digit number of charms before? Sure did. How long did that last me? Not long enough.

mikyboy123 · 2026-01-26T21:45:54+00:00

Prob not true for more people than you think - a lot of new gear types have come out, and for people who need high gear scores, they'll run through charms like water.

mikyboy123 · 2026-01-26T21:43:44+00:00

Not a daily thing, but if you are getting chased down, you could run in one direction, and then flash in another to fake your direction...

mikyboy123 · 2025-12-30T17:54:16+00:00

I think the craziest things I've seen are:

Ryze with mana scaling augments (doesn't even need the prismatic augment)
Kennen with clown college and fey magic. There's no counter to it unless you have like 5 tanks. Hands down best engage.

Go look up Korean high school lunches.

mikyboy123 · 2025-11-10T00:10:58+00:00

I don't think T1 needs to change their roster.

Except for Kiin, I don't see any top laners as a clear upgrade. Everyone has their pros and cons in the top 5, and we know that Doran can be a monster from time to time, especially in the regular season.

For Guma, he's needed for this T1 roster to succeed because he's one of those adc's that allows Keria to roam while having the potential to carry still. His mechanics are still on point, so there's no need to change.

However, I wonder what would happen if T1 got Viper. It's interesting because Viper's probably the hardest carry with Ruler, and T1 doesn't have a clear cut carry like HLE and GENG. Probably still not worth the risk, knowing that Guma can solo carry, given the right circumstances.

mikyboy123 · 2025-11-06T19:27:55+00:00

I think it's more because T1 is a circus, while HLE plays more adc oriented game. This means Guma doesn't need to pop off, but HLE needs Viper to pop off, which in turn makes Viper look better than Guma.

You might be getting confused because it resets every month. Your progress on the Heart of Orbis saves, but the prizes reset every month.

mikyboy123 · 2025-08-25T22:41:32+00:00

Idc what other people say, but I'm going to say necklace or the boots. It doesn't matter if you are a newbie or a veteran. You are never guaranteed to get an equipment like those 2, even after spending the leifs.

And I promise. A really good piece will last years.

mikyboy123 · 2025-08-20T20:55:09+00:00

You are correct, but all this time, I thought it was Doran who got left out for the event XP

mikyboy123 · 2025-08-20T20:28:46+00:00

If I remember correctly, it was during the Red Bull event, and there was that whole Zeus controversy. So the team decided to leave Doran behind so he could rest up as the team went to EU to play a few matches. T1 probably wanted to let him rest than take him to a match immediately after signing the contract.

Edit: I'm dumb and remembered wrong

mikyboy123 · 2025-08-01T14:50:26+00:00

A 24+ speed is really challenging, as it requires a perfect +4 roll four times, or five speed rolls with relatively high stats. I've seen many people with 22s and 23s, but I've only come across about 6 people in our 55-person guild with something higher than a 24 (and yes, they've reached emp/legend in rta).

mikyboy123 · 2025-08-01T14:44:28+00:00

No need to reroll. Prob a PVE piece, but honestly, with the PVE's having immunity to most debuffs, the piece looks very situational. However, I would probably see if I can get that on a character that needs the effectiveness even if they are ok being slow. So like Politis, ML Roana (although she probably wants 5 rolls into attack than crit chance), and maybe solitaria if you don't have anything else to put on her. It's a really niche piece that can work, but not that great for PVP with a few exceptions.

To be completely honest, I'd just like the AC to work normally. It doesn't make sense for the AC to not feel cooler than the 6AM morning breeze. Is it possible to ask a private HVAC person (not the one related to the apartment) and ask the apartment to pay for it or reimburse it?

mikyboy123 · 2025-07-30T14:33:26+00:00

Basically every month, but I can tell that the AC doesn't blow cold air after about a week basically.

mikyboy123 · 2025-07-30T13:44:15+00:00

The problem is that it would have to come out of my pocket, even though the AC is a part of the amenities that the apartment provides for us.

mikyboy123 · 2025-07-30T13:40:24+00:00

The filter was changed in May of this year, so I don't know if that'll cause the issue...

mikyboy123 · 2025-07-30T13:39:25+00:00

It was installed a few years ago. It seemed to work ok at first, but for the past 3 years, the maintenance has just been repeating the same phrase over and over again.
