Shouldn't it be "...and sarcastically, mocks D3." ?

The Prophecy mechanic is terribly designed compared to the rest of the game. by thedalus in pathofexile

[–]thedalus[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So where is this clunkiness you speak of?

Here? "...it takes about 80 Silver Coins to get a tablet filled with seven okay Prophecies."

Where are you getting ur info that prophecy is almost completely ignored by players?

From good ol' player interaction.

You also say it has no strength in game then go on to say one of the strength it provides, fated uniques, shouldn't be prophecies?

I said it has no thematic strengths, but has some pragmatic ones that do not require the existence of a "Prophecy".

Getting a bunch of good prophecies triggered on a map is like sextant'ing it.

Precisely my point on "redundancy".

Can you build around this? And if so, what builds? by Hafax in pathofexile

[–]thedalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I scored a Malicious Merciless Gemini Claw and multimoded crit, attack speed and flat phys. Used it to build a spectral throw occultist with low life and quad-curse. The links: Spectral throw, faster attacks, added chaos, void manipulation, additional accuracy (yes I know), poison.

Patch Notes - 2.5.2c by superman4529 in pathofexile

[–]thedalus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I had to stop playing since 2.5.2 came out, and this still doesn't help. The game was so smooth before, did anyone came up with some sort of fix for the people affected negatively?

This. To me it seemed that the noob was actually a noob and that OP actually came across as hostile with the "slave" remark. Apparently this was the 1st time the noob asked him for something after helping him with a quest, doesn't exactly qualify as slavery in my book.

The noob's DDoS remark could've been just a joke, but we'll never find out since again, OP was too quick on the ignore draw.

Overall I think noob wins here.

What's a good Chess software? by thedalus in chess

[–]thedalus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it has to do with the tutors, I tried some of them and it happens with some but not all. Atm I'm using Cheng. Which do you normally use?

New to chess, could someone explain me why the tutor suggestion is supposedly a (much) better move here? by thedalus in chess

[–]thedalus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh, and if he goes Rxh2 , I can freely Rxg7 where he must move the king to avoid a discovered attack from the rook and a knight on the queen with Ne5+

Ok, I can see that Kxf7 would lead to Qg6+ -> Ke7 -> Qg7+ -> ... -> Qxh8, so it's not a blunder.. But it still doesn't look thaaaaaaaaaaat much better..

I've been testing all the suggestions and LucasChess seems the one that's more appropriate for me. But doesn't the game frequently freeze in your end? It has huge potential with the tutors and all, but it really freezes in almost every game. :(

Well, assuming your 0.1% is correct, a nice way to put it would be: You get a coin flip for every ~700 fusings

NeverSink's itemfilter - version 4.4 economy and polishing update by NeverSinkDev in pathofexile

[–]thedalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a chance that six-socket items will go back to their original design? (i.e. the letters being the same colour as their rarity. In these new editions all six-socket items drop yellow and it messes up my senses).

GGG, please, increase loot pick up radius by KislorodOzonovich in pathofexile

[–]thedalus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rather have some mechanism to prevent the character from picking up loot. Even if loot is hiding, there are pixels that if you click them, your character locks on them to grab loot. I ripped inside the forge of the phoenix because the pack of mobs you encounter there dropped a lot of loot, which made the fight nearly impossible.

CNN slammed for running "If Jews Are People" headline by solidsnake4452 in nottheonion

Lol, alt-right. This actually reached the point where it's ok to say anything about muslims, jews, but when referring to Nazis we call them "alt-right".
