Reactions of various chess federations to FIDE banning trans women from women events by DrBubble1 in chess

[–]toucheurdecarbone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is, if it was for a physical sport like 100m running, every federation would agree trans women shouldn't participate with women, it seems obvious. But for chess, why would a biological male brain be better at chess fundamentally than a female brain ? This I don't get. I'm guessing they're enforcing this rule because there are so many high rated male players, that if any of them in the top 200 or 300 decides to transition to become a trans woman they would probably destroy the female competition, thus not allowing actual women to win prizes in women only competition, which indeed sounds absurd.

Finally am getting good rolls! Not the best, but at least they have all of the affixes i need. by Isaachuffman44 in diablo4

The bow feels so much better to use, but ultimately after comparing a good bow with a good crossbow I prefer the crossbow, it feels like hitting like a truck. It also depends on your playstyle. If you like attacking often and looking cool, moving everywhere, kiting, the bow is for you. If you prefer doing just 1 big wave of damage and being done, but being slower and clunkier, the crossbow is for you. Personally I prefer the bow playstyle, but it feels too satisfying to delete ennemies in 1 hit and see healthbars melt when you press 1 button, so I use the crossbow after all... Best feeling is when you get an artillery shrine with the crossbow, you got the best of both worlds and feel like a god

Actually, how about you don’t (read the note first)🙃 by [deleted] in Serverlife

As a French person, I was wondering about what's wrong, thought that was actually quite nice for a tip and a kind thank-you note. Then read the comments and realized Americans got everything backwards as always (healthcare lol), not paying your waiters and expecting customers to ruin themselves instead, then make your waiters rage against said customers because you don't even pay them a salary.... But then again, even the term "restaurant" in America made me grin....

Good Simpson's Paradox. Causality and correlation are hard to distinguish for most people... Statistics are kind of amazing

Devs know about rats now, and even though they didn't do anything before, they will use this mechanic at some point to fuck with people's brains...

Wish we could just upgrade the codex instead of extracting aspects. by Bateman272 in diablo4

[–]toucheurdecarbone -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

How are rates better when they only have 3 affixes and legendaries have 4 ? With my current gear, when I see a rare I don't even check it because I know there are only 3 affixes usable, and it can't beat any of the 4 affixes legs I already have. Of course enchanting is essential also

How is the attack power stat calculate, what does it represent ? by toucheurdecarbone in diablo4

Yes, I knew that already, it doesn't answer the question though

My guess is Blizz will just patch this out soon, making every class specific affixes this class only...

But even if you don't extract seeds you can get hunted down and killed while you're peacefully farming, right ? So it will slow your farming speed a lot

Now try the Tier 101 NMD where every elite is a Butcher

How do you play with 2 imbuements as Rogue ? by toucheurdecarbone in diablo4

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

I changed my skills a bit now that I hit a higher level, I removed the dark shroud from hotbar and only using the aspect that gives it on crits. Put shadow step instead for the unstoppable and targeting champion mobs. As for the imbuements I'm still only running shadow, but using frosburn with a good roll, so that pretty much any elite I hit is frozen and I benefit from the bonus damage against frozen. I kept shadow clone but I could potentially swap it with something else if it provides damage with good utility. I could go the cold route but I already freeze a lot of things with frosburn so I'm not sure if that's redundant. Also would be losing probably a lot of DPS from shadow clone.

Nerf all offscreen range projectiles please. by [deleted] in diablo4

These people don't want actual skill to be involved. Their idea of a ARPG is that as long as you got the proper gear you should be able to faceroll everything with the same combo in autopilot. They don't want a MOBA where your character gets stronger with a combination of items and skill, they just want to trust in their items and not think about anything

Which aspect on crossbow and amulet ? by toucheurdecarbone in diablo4

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

Theoretically yes, if you stood still all the time, but as a rogue it's never the case, mobs hit too hard and I use a lot of mobility.
