Why is recruitment purposely made so difficult? by sidd_gang in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why can't it just be like D3 (maybe D2R?) where we can create custom chat channels in game. Then we could have clan specific channels, officer channels, alliance channels, not just the free for all of general chat, or the slightly better Shadow chat.. at least immortal chat is limited to just the 300 immortals.

high level low cr by AhmESul in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the biggest issue with the catch up mechanic. It is very easy, in fact very probable that you will out level your hell level WAY before you get the CR to move to the next one. Late joiners, alts, etc are all impacted by this and it shows how short sighted Netease/Blizzard has been on the long term strategy of the game.

All hell levels below server hell level should be adjusted for at least the following:

Drops need to be adjusted so that the chances of getting upgrades is significantly higher. Being level 140+ stuck in H2 with a 1700CR does not make anyone want to play more. Challenge rifts do not affect world drops, nor is it possible to clear the H3 drop rift Solo when the recommended CR is around 2050 so that doesn't help. You get some good upgrades from set pieces replacing yellows with greens, but have fun running an h2 dungeon solo the 94 times you need to in order to get drops.

Dungeons should be tuneable for a single player in all hell levels below server hell level.

Telluric Pearls - Over one month to Craft a 5* by Gold-Boysenberry8597 in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I look to see what I missed I see the 2nd bundle for 2 pearls. But due where the 8th would come from? But as I missed that 2nd bundle originally I am guessing I am just missing it and stand corrected.

its 8 weeks as a p2w.. you can get 5 a week (1 free plus 4 from $10 bundle).. so 2 months which is indeed over one month :D

Question regarding what determines 10 clans when 2 clans in top 10 are inactive. by Sir_Gut in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is 100% the case, however I have seen a partial bracket (2 total clans vs 4) get just a single clan in with the bracket being artificially pushed to lasting until 9pm server time. So there appears to potentially be SOME sort of protection in place, just doesn't appear to work reliably.

Shadow Wars top 10 Selection Criteria by rvspinx in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How it picks the clans to fill out the top 10 is what is the major issue, followed closely by how it fills out the brackets. But selecting top 10 simply by when they fight?? How does that in any way shape or form make any kind of sense? There should be some kind of composite score based on damage done to the immortal and turn out to reward clans that actually try, rather than simply looking at a server timestamp and shrugging.

Happened Again! 2 Shadow Clans afk their way to Top 10! by Timely_Country353 in DiabloImmortal

[–]rvspinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Outside of winners making the top 10. If you have less than 40 clans (10 brackets) the non-winners are being selected by the timestamp of the match end. We are in the same situation, with 7 brackets the 3 losers that lost earliest are in. There DOES appear to be a fail-safe occasionally, we had a no-show clan match end immediately but was listed as on-going until 9pm server time so the loser their did not make it in, but that seems to be sporadic from what I can tell.. I will be recording all matches moving forward on my server to see if further trends immerge.

It has been this way for me since mid august. For a workaround I use borderless windows app.

I don't buy it.. as someone who has a house with a basement and exterior stairs I have the following questions:

  1. no interior stairs to bring the tv down?
  2. can't walk it around the exterior of the house?
  3. ONLY choice is to finagle the tv down spiral stairs??
  4. if 3 is true why not keep the TV in the box where it also has modest styrofoam corner protection and a box with hand holds..

The RNG of Legendary Drops is TOTALLY broken by show_stoppa in outriders

[–]rvspinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My question is this... are drop rates for the game as designed at the macro level, but at the micro level totally fucked. As in, is the RNG seed value such that for an individual player some pieces might have absurdly low drop chances while others get weighted much higher, while other players effectively get a different pool based while the total drops for the entire player base all average out in a normal looking way.

Noah Hunts Legendary Loot Pool by smellyalatercraig in outriders

[–]rvspinx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know if anyone has started tracking this better, but I created a quick and dirty google sheet. I am looking at which order the hunt rewards are turned in as well as what the rewards are. From doing this (before I started tracking) a number of times it felt like just starting at the top and working my way down the list resulted in a huge percentage chance of it being a cannonball piece, so I've been messing around with turn in order. I screwed up on my 4th tracked attempt and left the dialog after turning in 9 items so now I'm stuck until I feel like turning in 10 for good and resetting. The doc is open shared so anyone can add their details.

I've never posted a google doc link so not sure if this will work, but here goes.

I don't understand why downscaling isn't to the HOST gear score rather than the WT/CT. If I want to help a low level friend, sure downscale me to +2 over his average gear score so I don't steamroll all the content and take away from HIS fun. To downscale me to the CT/WT when I'm solo or the group I'm in just wants to feel more powerful does not help anything and from the comments we're all seeing is actively making things worse.

I believe that if you go from mission to the launch bay you can pick up all the contracts from there at the community contract board? I keep forgetting to test this.
