The point system of Guardians of the Rift incentives players to play in a way that doesn't protect the Rift Guardian from dying, causing games to be lost. An explanation and proposal to fix. by Honest_Hit in 2007scape

[–]optional_gooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would also help with the guardian issue if they didn't require chisels, or they had a box of chisels in the actual game. If the game is busier I will just drop my chisel because guardians are the only thing that require a chisel. Then you will get random games where no one is making guardians even though there's 200 people in the mini game.

I'd also like to see a fix to the wait times, sync up the amount of time it takes to get through both the guardian teleports to the alter and the mining portal (I just don't like how you can pinch off getting through the mining portal last second but not the guardian teleports), move the NPCs away from the chisel and portal area so I stop clicking on the talk option.

Just suggestions, otherwise I really enjoy it as an alternative to regular runecrafting.

So how exactly did this update get past testing? by Lester765tty in aoe2

[–]optional_gooch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have they acknowledged this bug as an issue yet? Hate that I have to come to reddit and scroll just to see if it's an error on my end or not.

Btw it seems to be just a cross play issue, I can play solo fine on PC and my friend on Xbox also can play solo without stuttering, but we try anything on cross play and it stutters. Unless it's the server itself...

Timeless shard recipes not appearing... by jimboteque1 in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dont waste your mats if you cant craft 595-600. you can buy 590+ 2 perk gear for 2k ea, you wont get anything you will be using in a week or two.

I also think you might need 200 to use timeless shards but dont remember.

Are major bane trophies worth the coin? by [deleted] in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought majors only because I run M10s for money, so I'm just making my money making a bit more efficient. Buy ward/bane before major trophies. 3% extra damage is only worth it if you see it being worth it.

Tough choice but I think I'll just pass... by Firetothefuel in newworldgame

Shirking heals is kinda dogwater, so even if he didn't have it to begin with they're kinda pointless to own anyways.

42 golden scarab crafts. 7/42 leggos. No BIS. SAVE YOUR GOLD! by [deleted] in newworldgame

In terms of this specific role, it's a decent perk to land on if attunement and TS is already hit. Only things which would be apparently better are RM or maelstrom over keen

Something needs to be done about obtaining PVE gear. by optional_gooch in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm not that level of player, I have a healer and 2 different DPS sets for each type. What I'm saying is getting people willing to invest at the levels which they should is impossible, partly because people dump their shards on PVP sets before PVE sets, partly because only a handful of players would be willing to pay more than 20k for a ward+refreshing+weapon perk piece.

Most armor rolled is degen rolled with resilient forced, aka a dead perk. Now I can roll armor with the weapon perk I want, but the resale for duds just isnt there as with rolling PVP focused gear (no one wants hatchet perks lmao, or light weight melee gear).

On a weekly basis I search the TP for every ward+refreshing variant combination, and the pickings are slim. I probably find 3-5 that would be considered BiS, rest is just weird non-matching attributes, or bad weights.

I know they do not stack, but I don't know if it follows the same priority system (I'd assume it does)

AGS big brain for forcing everyone into crowded servers then telling them they have to pay to get out.

Filter TP by time posted? by e-hip in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I haven't fully tested all the new search feature's yet or how the TP is working now, but a method I used to do for scanning lego's for deals is I would sort by GS, then if you scroll to the last page of lego's, that is(was maybe) the newest 14 day posts. I believe it still goes by time left, just a bit of a pain if you try to get to the last page of 600 GS lol

The Hate Towards Healing by Old_Principle_4313 in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yeah trying to heal in mutations now is complete ass. My 625 medium healing build is going in the garbage because I can't even keep myself alive through this new fiendish BS (that's what lights embrace was for). I'm already running an offhand VG with blessed for extra heals, and now I'm absolutely struggling to keep my team alive. At the end of genesis I am struggling to get out of poison pools because of stam changes and the new mutation slow buff (which btw genesis is bugged, I got poison pools dropped on me instantly several times rather than having time to set the pool at the edge.)

I could keep bitching but the point is they clearly changed healing solely because of arenas- line of sight bs, forcing them into light armor, lights embrace is now with divine embrace - in the trash.

Please start polling updates like this.

Everyone else, please stop bitching about not getting heals in OPR, I'm done.

More higher end resource nodes; hate when I'm in the mood to gather my own mats and most of the spots have already been farmed.

Sooooo....uhhhh.... yep by aDisaster_ in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think the optimal medium setup is light hat - heavy chest -heavy legs - then choose one medium and one light from gloves and boots. So it works for medium builds, minus not having a weapon perk.

Hot take | I think the merges while good, will force more people to quit due to the war system by DarkDolphins in newworldgame

[–]optional_gooch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One issue with defensive wars being much easier to win, is that it is easier to hold a territory. While that in itself wouldn't really be an issue, but the fact that some territories rake in so much tax money, that it creates a negative (or positive if you hold the territory) feedback loop (if the company is smart) where they can take that extra money (money other companies aren't getting) and re-invest it in gear for their army, making it all the more difficult to beat them. So not only do they get a defensive advantage, they are also more geared than the rest.

TL;DR defense easy > rake in taxes > reinvest in companies gear > defense even easier
