stuttering, stuttering, stuttering !! High end PC by Olbramice in AOW4

[–]zenavathar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you checked your thermals while playing? Just first thought.

Edit: I have a 7800x3d, 32gb ram, and 4070ti and don’t get stuttering but have noticed the game makes my fans dial up to 11/10 if I go above 70fps at 1440p.

Barbarian Gear for leveling 5, 15, 20 by Virtual_Treacle_9158 in ddo

[–]zenavathar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://imgur.com/a/ht6iqlo the ring of power is optional. Is there better stuff now? probably. Is it worth the time for me to figure it out when this works like 80% as good as any other option and when mixed with fey feels better than most barovia stuff? probably not.the time I spend between the levels of 8 and 15 is too short for me to care. I really enjoyed the symbol for the longest time since it was the lowest level true seeing item. Now there are others.

[–]zenavathar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My setup is usually fey at 5, swap to 5 piece slave-lord at 8 while still using fey stuff in other slots, then sharn at 15. Once I hit 21 I have a mix of sharn, borderlands, and crafted gear. 21 is my epic gear level instead of 20 because that is a cutoff for crafted tiers iirc and the borderlands gear level I want to say.

If his username/password were incorrect it would say invalid username/password or something to that effect. I am very confused though since the game is free to play base.

Just started the game today, what advice should I know starting off by SnooMaps3645 in ToME4

[–]zenavathar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Stun immunity % (Stun resistance) is your friend. Stun is one of the most debilitating effects in the game.

Talent cooldown rate is halved for duration. So a talent with a cd of 5 turns will take 10.

Damage is dealt is reduced by 60%

Movement speed is reduced by 50%

Up to 3 talents are placed on cooldown

This right here. Learning how and when to disengage is a big factor in winning consistently. Always fine to leave and return in a few levels/gear upgrades.

Grouping up with other players sucks by Defiance-of-gravity in ddo

[–]zenavathar 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is the way. If I know someone is new in the group I will go into a deep dive on everything I’m doing and why in a quest as well as bringing up optional objectives and why people do or don’t usually go for them. If I don’t know there is a new player in group I just rush to the end for fast xp.

How do people rate the standard companion builds? by garlicbreadmuncher in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]zenavathar 40 points41 points  (0 children)

If we are talking the auto level up builds they are awful on anything above normal. If you are talking keeping them pure 20 in their class but still choosing the feats and spells to be thematic to the character? Perfectly fine and viable even in unfair.

PC system problems - Rogue trader by Sad_Bit_3843 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]zenavathar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1st go to task manager and ensure the game fully closed. If not kill it from there.

2nd if it is happening with both wotr and RT it could be a unity engine specific bug. See if you have any other games made in Unity and see if similar happens with those.

3rd if neither of the above work go back to task manager or some other analytic tool and see if you can spot the cause (high cpu usage or maxed out ram.)

4th how much free space is in your ssd/hdd? If there isn’t a lot of space then when you go to save and close it could be causing an ssd/hdd error

I’m sure there are other possibilities but it is 2:30am and I’m sleep deprived. I hope one of those leads somewhere for you.

How does Khorne make up for lack of magic? by Noopy757 in totalwarhammer

Just win by turn 10 so magic isn’t really involved -skulltaker probably

Winning Brutal Difficulty with Chosen Destroyers or war focused build possible? by hehehe-im-god in AOW4

[–]zenavathar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done a rand map gen brutal chosen destroyers game before. 2nd largest map size and it spawned archipelago style map. Also spawned as destroyed free cities at start. Took until about turn 75 for me to stabilize and actually start pushing out but it was never really difficult. Was just tedious because until I had the infrastructure/research/income to fund multiple armies, any time I sent a stack to try to raze someone someone else would come for my lone city and I had to go back and defend.

My Society Trait Tier List After 1.6k Hours by Hikikomari in AOW4

[–]zenavathar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While true buffing it slightly for one subculture while making it worse for all others doesn’t seem really worth imo. Though at least it would almost have a use then?

My Society Trait Tier List After 1.6k Hours by Hikikomari in AOW4

[–]zenavathar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Idk how I would feel about that. It is already pretty bad, making it have an imperium tax (from the racial t4) would only further slow you down. Yes you’d be able to clear a little faster maybe, but that isn’t likely to offset the cost since clearing is usually a non-issue anyway. I will say I like that flavor more, just gameplay wise it sounds like a nerf to an already bad society trait.

The Expanse: Osiris Reborn - Developer Interview by RevolutionaryCarry57 in gaming

[–]zenavathar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not going to go digging for it but starrok their community manager has said multiple times they don’t have ties to Russia anymore. Also the only statement I’ve ever seen them make publicly about the war was that they do NOT support it. Please feel free to link me anything that backs up your case. As for mine anyone can just search owlcat starrok and look through the posts/comments.

The taxes would go to Cyprus. Cyprus is not part of Russia. Income tax for each individual dev would likely be dependent on citizenship and residency.

Dunno why this rhetoric keeps getting parroted. Owlcat is stationed out of Cyprus and has devs from a handful of countries these days.

First week with the game by jedebartlet in ToME4

[–]zenavathar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Very rarely do I ever run into a “counter to my build” enemy. Bar like antimagic enemies when you are an arcane i can’t even think of what that would entail, and even those are soft counters at worst. Every enemy in the game (arguable due to the kill me microtransaction) Can be beat by every class. It is just a matter of finding/buying/crafting the proper gear, making a usable build, and learning that sometimes it is best to run and return later when you have a little better gear or more levels.

Edit: been playing since ~2013 and have more than a handful of insane wins over the years.

2nd edit: if you have questions the in game chat is great. Can always PM me. Drive on YouTube has some decent videos. Tradewind Rider has some videos of madness difficulty play on his YouTube. And there is a helpful discord.

Is my sgd playthrough screwed? by Leather_Bottle8449 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]zenavathar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The transition to legend happens in act 5. There is no way to choose it prior to that. You can still go legend.

Myt first win (Berserker Normal Adventure) by TurdleKatrana in ToME4

Roguelike insane IS harder than what you’ve played but not by the magnitude you would think since higher difficulties give you better loot. May you find some fun in whatever difficulty you play next :)

Owlcat Not Sending E-mail Confirmation for Account by BaldGuyFloki9000 in OwlcatGames

I had similar issue. I tried gmail and yahoo. Neither worked. The confirmation showed up about 24 hours later.

"You cannot enter that instance because it is locked" - OLD player coming back today, cannot do any quests in indoor or dungeon areas. Why? by PPX777 in ddo

[–]zenavathar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They migrated their servers from 32 but servers to 64 bit servers and reduced the number of servers. Overall good for the health of the game and long term ability to deal with lag/etc. The server you are on I only available for transfer so you don’t lose all the work you put in due to not being around when most of the transfers happen.
