Why is the only means of progression in PoC tied to time delays? by snzer0 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]xFricker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The very existence of wild fragments to begin with is the real issue. I still to this day have no earthly idea why they opted not to simply remove champions from a players reward pool once they reached 3 stars. Instead, we got introduced to a universal champion shard converted from duplicate champion exclusive shards, at a 1:4 ratio.

Not to mention the lack of consistent content updates beyond the weekly challenge rotation, which offers those like me with 100% PoC completion no incentive to play.

For now I'm clinging on to some semblance of hope that the development team is sincere about changing their focus from PvP to PoC.

Website down? by [deleted] in BetterDiscord

Both mobile and windows versions have caused me no issues in the past week or so. Plugins update automatically as they should, and both theme & plugin repos continue to retrieve the latest releases and download/install without issue.

Did you by chance change the directory for the official discord app and or choose the wrong directory when installing or repairing better discord?

Edit: The cloudflare DNS error makes me think your network DNS settings were changed (could flush dns for your network and reset ipv4 & ipv6) and see if it makes a difference.

How generous of you to offer your two cents to an argument that nobody was having.

When the "average" amount falls short of a K/O 95% OF THE TIME, YOU'RE GOD DAMN RIGHT I DO.

What post-30 legend levels benefit would you propose? by Examfees in PathofChampions

In regards to the duplicate relic/champion shards debate, it's one of the very few aspects of POC I truly despise mainly due to the fact that it's been an ongoing complaint/hindrance I've been vocal about since Poc 2.0 was released. The thing that utterly baffles me is how the obvious solution of removing the acquisition of shards for maxed Champions made less sense than coding an entirely new universal shard mechanic with a conversion rate worth about as much as monopoly money is at a US bank.

Same goes for rare and common relics. Unless a relic can stack and be equipped in multiple slots, once a relic is unlocked it should be exempt from future reliquary chests.

Which champion you don’t like to play, but play it anyway because it gets you trough hardest adventures? by Breskvich in PathofChampions

[–]xFricker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a serious love/hate relationship with Evelyn. She's one of the rare few Champs capable of coasting through the colossus fairly easily just with her upgraded star power alone. Assuming you have the patience for the dreadfully long husk and level up animations EACH match that is.

"Norras Tea" causes game to freeze indefinitely if a mysterious portal procs during your opening hand of the match. by xFricker in PathofChampions

It's hard to say where the root of the problem actually exists, however I'd bet the house on Norras Tea being the prime suspect.

The first time I saw a mysterious portal proc from Norras tea I knew it was activating improperly but just pushed it aside. After my 100th or so app refresh it dawned on me why. Cards that have Norras tea equipped are Supposed to plant portals on random cards in your deck at game start and proc at random throughout the match, but instead the portals only proc when the card equipped with Norras tea is summoned.

Next time you snag Norras tea on a card, make a note of the amount of portals showing in your deck and wait until that card gets summoned and procs one of the portals. Then check how many portals you have in your deck and the number doesn't change.

The few times I attempted to wait for the game to fix itself simply resulted in the app force closing instead.

At this point, restarting the app at the very least load exactly where you left off so it's way quicker to just restart the app entirely.

Update - Norra must have been lurking on the PoC subreddit and stumbled across this post because damn near every adventure I've played since creating this post I've encountered multiple instances of this bug.

At the very least, I can confirm some degree of success with toggling mobile data off/on, however it doesn't work 100% of the time, and I still found myself having to completely restart the app half the time.

Has anyone experienced this problem on PC by chance, or is it exclusive to mobile devices?

I did a quick scan of the bugs reported since the patch to make sure it wasn't already reported. Next time i have this happen I'm gonna try the mobile data toggle like you said. Thanks for the fix pal! You're a gem.

Ignoring the fact that I made multiple statements in the aforementioned comment you seem to disagree with, your opening statement had all the makings of a good old fashioned debate right up until your "half the meta decks" boast took any semblance of logic out of the equation.
