#

and play

queen ember
#

seems outside of friday night

#

there isn't a good time to play

gleaming jacinth
#

tomorrow for sure

#

also why did i pick this build to start with

#

nothings gonna feel as good as this BLUBBI

queen ember
#

here we go again

woeful bolt
#

it's fully borked

queen ember
#

big alt f4

#

oh well

#

maybe tomorrow

woeful bolt
#

they're working on it

#

copium

#

holy i actually logged in

#

to the end of time cattosmile

woeful bolt
queen ember
#

maybe this is all an analogy

#

for purgatory when we die

#

it's just a loading screen

#

and we just never clear it

woeful bolt
#

holy

#

10 mins

#

we're in

primal plank
#

is it safe to come back ? peekab

queen ember
#

I would say no, but it seems like EHG hates me

woeful bolt
#

definitely not

primal plank
#

man why did I not go offline

#

thursday when I had 3 hours tops

woeful bolt
#

made it to monoliths

#

god bless

full zephyr
#

so like 90 mins ago I made the mistake of leaving monos

#

and now im still not in

gleaming jacinth
#

yaaaaay

#

im rerolling detonating arrow

#

i had enough

queen ember
#

they fixed detonating arrow in 1.0

#

and it kinda fucks

minor bay
#

how can this guy

#

still play

#

when no one else can

gleaming jacinth
#

well with that bad boy

#

IT FUCKS EVEN MORE

#

WDYM HOW CAN I PLAY

#

im in monos the entire time

queen ember
#

he's not "this guy"

#

he's tisu

primal plank
#

he's been offline this entire time

gleaming jacinth
#

nope

primal plank
#

baiting us to chose SA

gleaming jacinth
#

online all day

minor bay
#

he didnt even DC while none of us can play

#

legit

#

cheats

#

hacks

queen ember
#

SA is the only way I can actually see a load screen

#

but now I get stuck on the load screens

woeful bolt
#

im gonna have to dc to get food in like an hour DIESOFCRINGE pls be fixed by then

minor bay
#

took 15min to get into end of time

#

and then 10min to get into monos only to DC in loadscreen anyway

queen ember
#

I feel bad for them

#

like honestly

#

it's been an absolute shit show since launch

#

must be absolutely gut wrenching to go through

#

they're clearly trying to fix it and nothing's working lmao

gleaming jacinth
#

well it is kinda crazy how a game that was this accessible all the time

queen ember
#

okay I give this one more go

gleaming jacinth
#

had such a peak on real launch

queen ember
#

then idk maybe I go outside and touch grass

#

or something

subtle jolt
#

Bc it's 1.0

queen ember
subtle jolt
#

And people see not beta anymore

queen ember
subtle jolt
#

So they want to play

gleaming jacinth
#

i think its also both the perfect and the worst timing for their launch

queen ember
#

good news is, LE's popularity cleared up a lot of server space on helldivers 2 KEKW

gleaming jacinth
#

cause of the downtime in poe

subtle jolt
#

Friend thinks their net code was probably just written by college interns

gleaming jacinth
#

and d4 just being absolute horse shit

hollow sparrow
subtle jolt
subtle jolt
#

People played it on early launch and never again

gleaming jacinth
#

its so bad its not even fun to make fun of it

subtle jolt
#

Is this just a brain debuff people get when they play Le

#

They can't help but talk about d4?

hollow sparrow
#

What’s wrong with talking about d4

gleaming jacinth
#

?

fossil bison
#

Just like other mmos just keep on shitting on wow

hollow sparrow
#

Is that some forbidden topic?

subtle jolt
#

It's just a constant I notice

queen ember
#

I mean they're ARPGs

gleaming jacinth
#

i was talking about both poe and d4 in regards to LE

queen ember
#

it's bound to come up

gleaming jacinth
#

xd

hollow sparrow
#

I haven’t seen d4 shittalk here whole week

#

But just now

queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

And one mention of it by oxi

#

But not even shittalk

gleaming jacinth
subtle jolt
queen ember
#

oh I disable global chat in every game

full zephyr
#

d4 waste of breath

gleaming jacinth
#

oh u were talking about ingame chat

subtle jolt
#

Yeah I did after an hour

fossil bison
#

Wise man

subtle jolt
#

Le global is cancer

fierce hemlock
#

i disabled global bc that shit was annoying having text at the top and bottom but not in the middle

queen ember
#

the only people's loot I care about are my friends' loot and my own

subtle jolt
#

As bad as warframe region chat

#

Which is saying a lot

gleaming jacinth
#

isnt every global kinda like that

subtle jolt
#

Cuz good lord

queen ember
#

the rest is everyone talking as if they're some educated expert on ARPGs

subtle jolt
#

Warframe global is excessively bad

queen ember
#

"POE's mechanics are TOO complex"

#

like okay thanks LE global chat

subtle jolt
#

I'd say worse than the politics in barrens

hollow sparrow
#

You didn’t read it during ea then

#

There were so many people shitting on poe in le global

#

Refuges

queen ember
#

ye

#

"poe has too much going on, their passive tree is ridiculous"

hollow sparrow
#

Weird how they didn’t bother anyone

queen ember
#

90% of the tree is +10 str/dex/int

gleaming jacinth
#

ok what mastery do i play for detonating arrow

queen ember
#

but ya man

gleaming jacinth
#

is it just marksman

queen ember
#

marks

hollow sparrow
#

Detonating is marks special

#

You can’t be anything else

queen ember
#

also toss 5 points into falconer for explosive trap (duh)

subtle jolt
#

Too addicted

queen ember
#

poe is deadge rn

hollow sparrow
queen ember
#

everyone swapped over

subtle jolt
#

He said for

#

Ea

queen ember
#

idk during the online release it was popping off

hollow sparrow
#

During ea a lot of people played it

queen ember
#

they released their online during a dead period in poe

hollow sparrow
#

Not as unison as now of course

subtle jolt
#

While this launch feels like an ea

#

It's not sadly

queen ember
#

I remember some bad server hiccups when they first launched online play

subtle jolt
#

Their servers have always been shit

queen ember
#

kinda nuts to think that they've only had online play for a little over a year

subtle jolt
#

Netcode I should say probably

hollow sparrow
#

That campaign problem started runemaster patch

#

And somehow they didn’t fix it

subtle jolt
#

I rerolled

#

So I'm jaded rn

#

Towards the game abit

hollow sparrow
#

And had to move to server authority at certain point

#

I doubt that went smoothly really on the backend

barren pollen
#

Keep yourself safe.

subtle jolt
#

I wonder how many people are making afk macros

#

To not get dcds

full zephyr
#

I made it from connecting to a loading screen into the end of time

subtle jolt
hollow sparrow
#

With all the shit servers are getting at least core game is fun

queen ember
#

bro no shot cev responded to a message from like 8 years ago

hollow sparrow
#

So future is bright

queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

And they will have new poe league to fix shit

subtle jolt
#

Big madge oxi

queen ember
#

would've been much simpler to just launch with online play

sick stratus
queen ember
#

than try to implement it later

primal plank
sick stratus
#

I guess you don't know

subtle jolt
#

Payday 3 is just bad

sick stratus
#

I dunno I like global makes the game feel alive

barren pollen
subtle jolt
#

U don't need the servers to know that

barren pollen
#

Idk why discord does that on mobile

#

Instead of going to the new messages

#

Just hops to a random point in the timeline

primal plank
#

since you need servers to play the game you kinda do @subtle jolt

sick stratus
hollow sparrow
primal plank
sick stratus
#

d4BAD

subtle jolt
queen ember
subtle jolt
#

Well.

#

Game is actually worse than shit

#

Idk what you call that

queen ember
#

when I push S and see lorentz, sebe, tisu, cev, etc online

#

it feels much better than johnny sixpack's stupid fucking take in global chat

sick stratus
#

well none of you are on my friends list in game so I go to the thread

hollow sparrow
queen ember
#

the entire league?

sick stratus
#

I might be late to the league if I follow through with LSAT

queen ember
sick stratus
#

whens new league supposed to drop?

queen ember
#

end of march

subtle jolt
#

How do u guys mentally handle giving poe your soul

sick stratus
#

ye

#

Im fucked

subtle jolt
#

For weeks on end

sick stratus
woeful bolt
queen ember
sick stratus
#

if I still have a job I'm taking off the first 2 weeks of April

woeful bolt
#

my build is beginning to cook

queen ember
#

jordy rn

hollow sparrow
#

Most likely yes

primal plank
#

cooking the servers maybe

queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

But discord decided that quoting isn’t allowed

queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

I can’t tell now

#

You’ll know

queen ember
#

LORENTZ IS MARRYING ME AND MOVING TO AMERICA

primal plank
#

my mind went to taking out the p guy

hollow sparrow
queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

Very outlandish concept

subtle jolt
#

Yes

#

Having fun in a video game

#

I forgot how to do that after wow

hollow sparrow
#

Also I typically play with my irl friends and online friends are there too

sick stratus
#

lorentz gets to miss harvest removal 2.0 redux reddit edition

hollow sparrow
#

So we have fun together, linking cool shit to each other

sick stratus
#

like reading reddit first 2 weeks gonna be a game all in itself

subtle jolt
#

I think wow actually emotionally drained how much I want to invest in games

hollow sparrow
sick stratus
#

"why no loot Chrisu Wilson Big SHIT"

subtle jolt
#

Gave me ptsd

queen ember
#

the infamous untainted paradise "UNTAINTED PARADISE. COME"

#

just me lorentz and tisu holding hands

hollow sparrow
#

PoE has one big advantage

queen ember
#

🧑‍🤝‍🧑

hollow sparrow
#

You don’t have any sort of raid schedule

#

If you really don’t feel like playing the league you just don’t

queen ember
#

ye kinda play at your own pace

hollow sparrow
#

And not lose guild spot in the process

sick stratus
#

ye poe kinda stole wows place for me years ago.

hollow sparrow
#

Or any of that crap

queen ember
#

if you want to remove the entire rat race aspect of the trade economy and skip "feeling behind"

sick stratus
#

for that very reason

queen ember
#

you can also play ssf

#

and you have the ability to convert to trade at any time

subtle jolt
sick stratus
#

ok these loads are cooked

#

RC time. Play LE later

queen ember
#

bro someone's car alarm has been going off

#

for 45 fucking minutes

sick stratus
#

you're in detroit aren't you just immune to that by now

gleaming jacinth
#

did damage increase since 0.92

sick stratus
#

it's like white noise at this point no?

gleaming jacinth
#

or why do all the showcases from those patches feel like 0 dam

queen ember
#

I'm not in detroit

#

you ignorant fuck

#

also sorry not everywhere is as empty as the north pole

sick stratus
#

brother it was a joke calma calma

queen ember
#

go shovel some snow you moose fucker

sick stratus
#

LMAO

queen ember
#

meanwhile I'll enjoy my 11 degrees celsius hypergrab

subtle jolt
hollow sparrow
sick stratus
#

ok self torture time brb 35 mins

queen ember
#

and I've woken up before my alarm both days of this weekend

full zephyr
#

im in an actual monolith, only took about 2 hours

gleaming jacinth
#

thats crazy

subtle jolt
#

Just go back to bed oxi

gleaming jacinth
#

oxi ill tell u when i log off ok

#

be ready so u can take my spot

hollow sparrow
#

Tisu is favoring oxi

#

I see, okay

arctic python
#

i havent had time all week is this fun whats the verdict

hollow sparrow
#

very fun

subtle jolt
#

Game is fun
Connection is shit

hollow sparrow
#

wait, what are we talking about?

#

loading screens or actual gameplay?

arctic python
#

i can wait another week i guess

subtle jolt
#

Idk if you can fix it that fast

gleaming jacinth
#

youre level 80 something lorentz

#

let oxi catch up

hollow sparrow
#

also someone here posted potion-centered build

#

I dunno, I played lich with poition centric relic

subtle jolt
#

I feel the real fix will be people not wanting to play anymore

hollow sparrow
#

I did not enjoy that playstyle

#

imo try it out faster to get the feeling

hollow sparrow
subtle jolt
#

Me leveling my 16th rogue

queen ember
#

why did I join the LE server

#

what a wonderful lie

#

"over 700k"

#

btw

hollow sparrow
#

I have a degree in math

#

can confirm they are not correct

primal plank
#

I don't but I can confirm too

queen ember
#

they literally JUST upgraded their server capacity to 500k after 2 weeks of people being unable to play

subtle jolt
#

The game is cross play

primal plank
#

I read someone saying we would be more mad at blizzard if this happened to d4

#

no shit sherlock I expect more from blizz than ehg

queen ember
#

I had no idea

subtle jolt
#

Well you posted steam chart.

queen ember
#

yeah give me a way to pull up PSN's numbers

#

and we can add them together

#

the overwhelming majority of HD2 players were steam players

subtle jolt
#

Surprising

#

Normally console has more.

#

But at the same time the guy is acting like they didn't have the backing of sony for their game

#

So Idk why someone would compare the two

#

You know it's bad when destiny 2 can handle more people at once than you.

hollow sparrow
arctic python
#

im right here

#

wow

queen ember
gleaming jacinth
#

im here too

hollow sparrow
#

how do I add you Tisu

gleaming jacinth
#

gleaming jacinth
primal plank

#

I LOVE KANGAROOS M8

gleaming jacinth
#

everyone whos using diff region servers to log on has to sub to steel btw

#

hes the savior

primal plank
#

well I might be in

#

IN LOADSCREEN gottem

hollow sparrow
#

@gleaming jacinth lil upgrade I got today

gleaming jacinth
#

its so weird with res cause blessings in theory can just cap 1 completely

#

solid tho

queen ember
#

annnd

#

its gone

gleaming jacinth
queen ember
#

we push m

#

and click outcast camp 30 times

#

and hope it works

gleaming jacinth
#

soon dagger

fierce hemlock
#

like you can probably get 2-3 of your res's done thru blessings

gleaming jacinth
#

thought there was 1 for each

#

maybe not

#

but yea defo a few

fierce hemlock
#

only like 6 blessings that give stats right

#

ideally you probably want to scale other defenses too

#

like flat armor / endurance / crit multi / inc dmg

primal plank
#

from what I've gathered res in LE aren't what they are in poe

#

being capped is less important and will not save you on its own

#

so ig that's why it's easier to get em?

fierce hemlock
#

i think its harder to get res than poe

#

because theres 7 that you have to cap

#

i think fire/ice/lightning/phys are all important to cap, seems to me like you can slack off on the other 3 a bit though

minor bay
#

cuz of how res work in LE, ye

minor bay
#

you defintiely wanna cap phys, void and cold.

necrotic if you plan on running the monos that have those mobs in the pool a lot

sick stratus
#

are servers unfucked

hollow sparrow
#

haven't really been fucked for me today

sick stratus
#

I find it does so much dam

#

comparitively. That and void

#

I find I die to those 2 types the most

minor bay
#

so its easy to avoid

fossil bison
#

Just certain mobs being dangerous

primal plank
fossil bison
#

Lots of void damage is big purple circles with huge tells so yeah theyll do big dmg

hollow sparrow
#

res swings by a lot with rolls on items

sick stratus
#

gotta fix blessing

fossil bison
#

-125 kekman

hollow sparrow
#

changin one item -> need to restart res on like 5

minor bay
#

theres only 2 bosses that do necrotic damage (corpse emp and abom) and the only other mono that can spawn necrotic mobs is blood, frost and death

fossil bison
#

And the soulfire dungeon stuff, but i guess youre just mentioning monos

minor bay
#

oh ye

#

im just talking monos

#

its why you just go perma necro res in bastion

minor bay
#

if you dont have necro res capped

#

cuz the fire mobs dont hurt nearly as bad anyway

#

but ye, the problem is that theres some mobs like soul cages or the big hulk thingies that do massive damage which is necro damage

#

and theres no real equivalent for fire

#

or lightning, for that matter

#

so yeah, capping all res is kinda not necessary if youre only farming specific shit

#

but its just easier to cap it all

#

but in early gearing you gotta prioritize, and id definitely cap cold/phys first, void next, then fire/lightning/necrotic, and poison you can just full ignore

fossil bison
#

Capping cold+phys requires a bit more effort when youre using morningfrost kekman

minor bay
#

ye its just the most common types

#

cuz almost every timeline has multiple frost mobs

#

theyre also the scariest shade variants, for that matter

fossil bison
#

Ye thats why morningfrost reduces them, since the effort on them is completely borken for anything with dex

minor bay
#

at least in my opinion

#

fire/lightning shade are a meme

#

and theres no necrotic shade so ye, its w/e again kekdog

hollow sparrow
#

@gleaming jacinth reroll time

naive crag
#

is that a beer

sick stratus
#

is there a way to copy FILTERS

naive crag
#

yea

sick stratus
#

HOW

minor bay
#

ctrl+c, ctrl+v

sick stratus
#

ok nerd

#

its not that simple

woeful bolt
#

copy from. where

#

you can export your in-game ones or import one from your clipboard

hollow sparrow
#

it's actually is that simple

sick stratus
woeful bolt
#

just copy the page

minor bay
#

hataro

#

i love you but

woeful bolt
#

import filter paste from clipboard

minor bay
#

you click on "loot filter guide"

#

and then it explains in like 30seconds of reading how it works kekdog

woeful bolt
minor bay
#

you go into settings ingame, you go to loot filter, you open the folder, then you rightclick the maxroll lootfilter link, click "save link as", and you save the .xml in that folder

#

there, now you read it from me instead of maxroll kekdog

woeful bolt
#

i didn't even do that

#

i just opened it and pasted

primal plank
#

certified hataro moment

#

has been a while

#

@minor bay I finished campaign and game exploded when joining end of time AngyPanda

queen ember
#

aaaaaand its gone

queen ember
primal plank
#

NOTHING MAN I'M SICK I JUST WANNA GAME

#

I CAN'T GO OUT , I CAN'T CLIMB

#

AND APPARENTLY I CAN'T KILL MOBS EITHER

hollow sparrow
#

IT EXISTS

#

@gleaming jacinth

primal plank
#

@queen ember also like something def fishy happened when I found 2 uniques by lvl 3

#

cause I have barely seen any since then

minor bay
hollow sparrow
#

I am actually no gb capped

#

it poorly rolled

sick stratus
#

only saves it as a txt file

minor bay
hollow sparrow
#

and I need fix phys res

#

can't use it for now

#

damn

sick stratus
#

no xml

queen ember
#

there's this neat thing you can do

#

like type .xml

hollow sparrow
#

rename it after lol

queen ember
#

and it saves it as an xml file

minor bay
#

im psure

#

youre doing smth wrong

#

are you clicking the link or?

sick stratus
#

yeah whoever designed this filter shit I am deeply annoyed. Like the filter is cool but it's obnoxious to interact with

queen ember
#

or just open the text document, ctrl +c then import from clipboard

primal plank
#

why are we saving files for a loot filter ? 😕

hollow sparrow
queen ember
#

you're actually high as fuck lmao

hollow sparrow
#

holy fuck Hataro

minor bay
#

hataro

hollow sparrow
#

I am sorry but you are an actual idiot

minor bay
#

do you click the link or

#

do you right click it

sick stratus
#

right click

hollow sparrow
#

I haven't seen one like you in my life

primal plank
#

it's legit just copy paste

hollow sparrow
#

and I've seen a lot

minor bay
#

on the guide page ye

primal plank
#

you have the iq of a toaster I swear

sick stratus
#

ye

minor bay
#

wait

#

i figured it out

sick stratus
#

mf I shouldnt have to do this shit with directories and files

minor bay
#

gimme a sec

#

channeling my inner hataro

sick stratus
#

poe I click download filter. Done

minor bay
#

"idk, works for me"

queen ember
#

oh

primal plank
#

u don't

#

what

queen ember
#

and where do you put the downloaded filters

#

you just leave them in Downloads?

sick stratus
#

in the folder

queen ember
#

oh

minor bay
#

so you do the same thing

#

gotcha

sick stratus
#

this isn't the same oxi

queen ember
#

so you do that shit with directories and files and shit

#

got it

#

it absolutely is

#

lmao

minor bay
#

the only thing thats faster

sick stratus
#

no because it has to be an xml doc

minor bay
#

with poe filters

queen ember
#

LMFAO

minor bay
#

is if you actually take it from someones profile

#

and it loads it into the game

queen ember
#

THE FILE EXTENSION

#

THATS THE CULPRIT

#

IF IT WAS .FILTER

sick stratus
#

it is, do you know why? because I've literally tried to do this with a txt doc

queen ember
#

THAT'D BE SO MUCH BETTER

hollow sparrow
#

did someone tell hataro that PoE filter is .xml as well?

sick stratus
#

YES BUT IT SAVES FOR ME

queen ember
#

we get it, you go on filterblade.xyz every league and do it the harder way for absolutely zero reason

#

if you're so concerned about effort why even download your filters

#

just use the online sync option

#

or you know

#

copy and paste them

sick stratus
#

I dunno that hasn't worked for me in the past

queen ember
#

in LE

sick stratus
#

the sync feature

queen ember
#

You know it's impressive when I run into people who have the same technological savvy as my 76 year old father

minor bay
#

hataro

#

what does the page look like

#

where youre rightclicking

#

to save as

sick stratus
#

you think I do this for work?

queen ember
#

convert what

#

you literally rename the extension

#

the text file is XML

sick stratus
#

I use a software that was built in the 1980s

queen ember
#

it's meant for you to copy and paste

hollow sparrow
#

@queen ember I hit that moment in LE that I typically dislike. There are no quality upgrades, it's just same rare but with better stats(maybe something shuffled)

sick stratus
queen ember
#

you literally ctrl + c

#

then click import from clipboard

#

lmfao

minor bay
#

okay

#

its the guide

hollow sparrow
#

and I can do echoes all day without upgrades

minor bay
#

if i go on the dive bomb guide

#

it saves as .txt for me as well

queen ember
hollow sparrow
#

at least in PoE it's currency that keeps me entertained

queen ember
#

when I get stuck in connecting to server screens

hollow sparrow
#

you get a divine and you are a happy boy

#

here even rare shards don't feel anything like that

#

:/

queen ember
#

that's because you need to farm a new base to craft on

#

because of crafting potential

sick stratus
queen ember
#

and that's not really fun

sick stratus
#

that didn't work for me before

hollow sparrow
#

I just need slightly more cdr

#

slightly more dex

#

idk

queen ember
#

WE'RE BACK IN BOYS

#

LOGIN

hollow sparrow
#

it's not perfect

queen ember
#

oh what a joy

naive crag
#

meanwhile me on tindral

queen ember
#

I have to redo that entire part of the campaign

hollow sparrow
#

my char gear

queen ember
#

yippee

hollow sparrow
#

but I am already discouraged to push even more

#

:/

minor bay
fossil bison
#

Or copy it all and then import from paste

sick stratus
#

annoying but ye that was the simplest way

minor bay
#

ye like

#

apologies for calling you beyond stupid

#

cuz it seems the page wasnt uploaded properly to the guide

#

so youre just regular stupid

#

for not knowing how to change file extensions

sick stratus
#

the filter is cool

queen ember
#

ok man

#

I'm done with this for today

#

this is actually so fucking annoying

sick stratus
#

I feel for you oxi

minor bay
#

idk what the cause is, ofc, but it feels like a queue would be better than this intermittent disconnecting/endless loadscreen issue

#

the worst part is that most of the time that it does work and you load into a town, its fucking empty

queen ember
#

it has to be something in their codebase

#

it's literally the only explanation at this point

full zephyr
#

small indie company

#

oh wait

fossil bison
hollow sparrow
#

oxi is the code expert now

queen ember
full zephyr
queen ember
#

but thanks for that lorentz

#

hope you have a wonderful sunday

hollow sparrow
#

you are welcome

queen ember
#

I'll be sure to point out your lack of expertise in areas when you share your opinions on things moving forward

hollow sparrow
#

I kinda wanna swap to MG

#

but I need filter for it

sick stratus
#

whats MG?

hollow sparrow
#

merchant guild

sick stratus
#

ohh

woeful bolt
#

it's something with matchmaking being super fucked

queen ember
#

which points toward something in the code in regard to their matchmaking, but what do I know I'm not a "code expert" as lorentz pointed out

woeful bolt
#

i just logged in after no delay with asia north WEIRD

#

yeah i would agree

hollow sparrow
#

and now you are butthurt about it

queen ember
#

yeah

#

when my friend decides to throw a jab at me for absolutely no reason

#

it's kind of offensive

hollow sparrow
#

wdym no reason

#

you make a conclusion having nearly 0 information in a field you haven't worked before to my knowledge

queen ember
#

again

hollow sparrow
#

it's like me saying for some legal case "that's the only logical conclusion" when I have no idea what I am talkign about

queen ember
#

next time you share your opinion on something you're not an expert in

#

I'll be sure to remind you that you're not an expert in that field

#

didn't know that you needed a phd to have an opinion

#

noted

hollow sparrow
#

and now as usual you are even overexaggerating to phd

queen ember
#

yeah, as usual you throw out a comment not realizing the implications it can have

#

and then act surprised when it's received poorly

#

clearly hyperbole is not in your vocabulary

#

and everything must be taken literally

minor bay
#

why everybody so hostile today

#

just like

#

be mellow and chill

#

last epoch is ruining the mood sad

hollow sparrow
#

I am not acting surprised, I expected as much

queen ember
#

Terrific, let me prevent that issue for you moving forward then

minor bay
#

were all frustrated, so lets be mad at the real culprit: GGG. if they made a better game, we wouldnt have last epoch

woeful bolt
#

personally

#

d4 bad

primal plank
sick stratus
#

why did I leave the safety of monos

queen ember
fierce hemlock
#

why play last disconnect we can watch people do under leveled keys fast

queen ember
#

of course

#

d4bad

minor bay
#

fair

woeful bolt
minor bay
#

i mean

#

im actually more annoyed

#

about d2 resurrected

#

wish they wouldve done more with it

#

similar to what theyre doing with wow classic and season of discovery etc.

fierce hemlock
#

its probably better they didnt

minor bay
#

idk

#

theyre doing good shit with classic wow

fierce hemlock
#

the diablo team is not the classic wow team

minor bay
#

sure

#

but it ultimately comes down to what you want out of the game imo

sick stratus
minor bay
#

if its planned to be something bigger, or if youre flexible enoug hto make it bigger if people play it a lot ore than expected

sick stratus
#

d2r was sick

fierce hemlock
#

release d2r but put medianXL in it baseline

minor bay
#

ye

#

something like path of diablo or medianXL wouldve been great imo

fierce hemlock
#

how often does blizz roll mods into their games tho

hollow sparrow
#

has that ever happen?

minor bay
#

i mean

hollow sparrow
#

the prime example I can think of is dota, but they lost it

minor bay
#

season of discovery is essentially just wow ascension

fierce hemlock
#

they don't lift stuff 1:1

woeful bolt
#

overwatch arcade modes PepeLa

minor bay
#

like

#

season of discovery is almost an exact 1:1 lift

#

from ascension

#

with glyphs that alter the class gameplay etc., adding new skills

fierce hemlock
#

yea but with added dogshit pvp zones

minor bay
#

but ye its a new~ish approach ig

fierce hemlock
#

like its cool that they're trying new things

minor bay
#

but ye idk

fierce hemlock
#

but like put some thought into them first

minor bay
#

LE Being this successful is great imo

fierce hemlock
#

dunno how ashenvale got released like that and stayed like that

minor bay
#

hope they make lots of money and can make cool leagues and improve endgame

#

think they have a really good baseline game

#

lootfilters, the cof/trade system

#

way beyond what d4/poe have

fierce hemlock
#

hopefully its successful enough for poe to stop outsourcing their job

minor bay
#

super accessible compared to poe, and d4 doesnt have it at all

minor bay
#

so it perfectly meets the middleground

queen ember
#

ggg doesn't have to try

fierce hemlock
#

i know it wont be oxi but i can cope

gleaming jacinth
#

also

queen ember
#

poe is legit just on a different level than any other arpg

minor bay
#

i think poe2 will just be a very different game than poe1

#

and itll drive away a lot of players

#

but will bring in new players tenfold

gleaming jacinth
#

why we fighting when i leave for dinner

minor bay
#

cuz you can play

#

and everybody else cannot

fierce hemlock
#

there's a reason they are keeping poe 1 going

#

i think poe 2 is gonna be much closer to ruthless than people will like at first

gleaming jacinth
#

but i wasnt even online seli...

queen ember
#

kinda disappointed they moved away from the shared end game they originally planned

woeful bolt
#

i forgot offline mode means not cof straight away

minor bay
#

i was looking forward to that and really glad they did it

hollow sparrow
minor bay
#

shared game with 36 ascendancies etc. seems like a nightmare to maintain

hollow sparrow
#

more moneys

queen ember
#

cause poe 2 would've just ended up being poe1 with better graphics, this way they can continue to improve their engine for both games and broaden their net

hollow sparrow
hollow sparrow
minor bay
#

ye i think like

#

combining endgame was just too much of a hassle to make work for either crowd, ultimately

#

so they just split it and call it a day, can focus a lot more on design prios that align with both games visions

gleaming jacinth
#

so raiz was about to log off cause he couldnt log in

minor bay
#

imo a good choice

gleaming jacinth
#

i come back and get in within 2mins

#

SA MAGIC

minor bay
#

i really didnt like the shared and simultaneous poe1/2 thingy

queen ember
hollow sparrow
gleaming jacinth
#

also idk who said it earlier about why monos work differently

#

its just public host vs local host

#

since u dont share monos with anyone its a lot easier for them to handle that

woeful bolt
#

yeah that's why it must be their matchmaking setup that is fucked

gleaming jacinth
#

yea

minor bay
hollow sparrow
#

their poe2 presentations aren't on their usual level tho, but that might be because I am not a new player to PoE so they feel slow

minor bay
#

well theyre showing off early/midgame stuff

#

thats slow even in poe1

#

its just a mtter of how far you can turn all the knobs in poe2, which likely wont be able to reach even close to poe1 levels in terms of speed, damage scaling etc.

hollow sparrow
#

I am not talking about the pace of the game, you can notice long pauses when action is happening but Jonathan already said what he wanted

#

basically the showcase, for what they are trying to convey, feels a bit dragged

minor bay
#

think itll feel different when you play cuz of the fluid combat and motion

#

better combat feedback as well

#

i remember watching lost ark and it felt kinda dull as well, but when you play it its a very different gameplay feel

hollow sparrow
#

okay I am bad with words or something

#

that's not what I am trying to say)

minor bay
#

mhye then im not sure i get what youre trying to say

#

are you talking abou teh gameplay or the actual presentations of the game?

#

like, stage presentation stuff

hollow sparrow
#

presentation, video setup

minor bay
#

oh

hollow sparrow
#

it's too long sometimes

minor bay
#

idk i think theyre waaaay better than poe1

#

i think theyre trying to show off too much at times

hollow sparrow
#

like they could explain the same and pack it into say 15 minutes instead of 25

minor bay
#

but theres also a lot of changes so i kinda get it

hollow sparrow
#

by not doing as many packs

hollow sparrow
#

like he says "and now we put grenade launcher" and then it feels like minutes he is only using grenades waiting for another pack. I got it, grenades)
that's kinda my only thing about those videos, overall they are quite cool

woeful bolt
#

shift in town is so bis

gleaming jacinth
#

do u guys also get mini stutters when theres a lot of shards/glyphs being picked up at once

minor bay
#

but for people uninitiated to poe and arpgs in general

hollow sparrow
#

yeah yeah, that's mu understanding as well

minor bay
#

but ye, they definitely linger on certain stuff a bit long at times

minor bay
#

i think the goal for poe2 is to approach a new type of player, people who enjoy games like lost ark, gw2, even some more tactical players or souls-like enjoyers

gleaming jacinth
#

ok good

minor bay
#

cuz it kinda hits many of those buttons

woeful bolt
gleaming jacinth
#

honestly i had the same feeling

#

it was so bad earlier before i left

hollow sparrow
gleaming jacinth
#

))

#

i still havent decided what to level tomorrow

#

is it a bow guy

#

is it maybe hydra runemaster

hollow sparrow
#

I had some weird moments after enough gameplay when my FPS tanked

#

but my CPU/GPU load and temps were fine

#

is there a way to show FPS in game?

woeful bolt
#

i wanna play a shuriken guy

#

steam overlay ig

gleaming jacinth
#

f11

hollow sparrow
#

I looked into while channeling support

#

doesn't seem much

#

I want sliding warlock auto casting something

gleaming jacinth
#

holy 1 lp exsanguinous

#

LOW LIFE?

hollow sparrow
#

I saw McFluffin playing low life falc

#

but I don't think there is a way to spy on his profile

minor bay
#

got boots from my first formosus kill tho on unempowered mono

gleaming jacinth
#

GUESS WHAT DOESNT HAVE LP YET THO

#

YEP URE RIGHT

#

MY LIL DAGGER

#

can i have some prayers

hollow sparrow
gleaming jacinth
#

i need to hit the 1 in 4 removal

minor bay
#

only gloves are super rare from non-emp

gleaming jacinth
#

we did not hit...

hollow sparrow
#

guess it's time to farm some birdies

#

I don't like that boss tho

gleaming jacinth
#

is it void bird

hollow sparrow
#

yes

gleaming jacinth
#

i had my first mono death there cause i dashed a lil bit too far Peepo_Giggle

proven ridge
#

Hi europeana

#

Please go to sleep

hollow sparrow
#

I need 5% crit multi from it

proven ridge
#

Its my time to play now

#

Mom said its my turn to epoch

gleaming jacinth
#

to epoch or to e-pog?

#

ok i need some rogues to confirm this

#

does shred effect still exist

hollow sparrow
#

first time seeing 3lp

naive crag
#

big mana regen?

gleaming jacinth
#

lorentz have u seen any shred effect idols

naive crag
#

i got 1

#

but only 1

gleaming jacinth
#

like does it actually say effect

naive crag
#

ye

#

let me log in

gleaming jacinth
#

cause when i press alt on my duration one

#

it says increases effect of ailments

naive crag
#

lul

#

maybe it is the tag

gleaming jacinth
#

and the maxroll thing is using "of crumbling" for shred effect

#

which is for me duration

#

so im a lil bit confusion

hollow sparrow
#

says it's very rare

#

but exists

#

from filter

gleaming jacinth
#

yea thats what i saw on my filter too

hollow sparrow
#

well it says ailment

#

because shread armour is prob ailment for game

#

just non-damagin one

gleaming jacinth
#

yea its an armour debuff

hollow sparrow
#

in-game guide uses word "ailment" as well

#

not for armour specifically but suggests all those effects are non-damagin ailments for the game

woeful bolt
#

wtf 2 uniques by level 12

#

is offline mode juiced

primal plank
#

idk man, happened to me in online too

#

I had like 2 unique drops by the 3rdzone

naive crag
#

first zones have extra unique droprate yea

#

it is to hook the people

woeful bolt
#

i blew up a table and dropped mourningfrost Pepega

gleaming jacinth
#

maybe i should make new guy and farm starting zone

#

surely i get my dagger there

woeful bolt
hollow sparrow
#

@gleaming jacinth

#

bad base

gleaming jacinth
#

hey im using the same one rn

marble turret
#

unlucky base

#

the one that gives ton of resists is so busted

gleaming jacinth
#

i actually want the armor one

marble turret
#

that one good too

#

just depends what you want from blessings really

gleaming jacinth
#

oh yea

#

well im using 2x armor for flat and % inc

hollow sparrow
#

woeful bolt

gz

hollow sparrow

hollow sparrow
#

yeah, I am getting le-65 now )

#

if it goes my ariphemtic progression we are on track

#

61 -> 65 -> 69

marble turret
#

lmfao

hollow sparrow
#

reading general in their discord...

#

I see some Hataro's there

#

maybe his alt accounts

primal plank
#

honestly like the server situation is bad but

#

you can play it offline I don't get it

woeful bolt
#

i made an offline but not having all my account wide stuff is a bit smoge

primal plank
#

like I get being annoyed but surely being online isn't so required that you'd rather refund than play offline

woeful bolt
#

no crafting mats no cof SAD

hollow sparrow
#

then it is required

brisk basalt
#

online real version offline fake version

hollow sparrow
#

also I have already started in online, I kinda don't wanna start from scratch

primal plank
#

yeah but you're not crying for refunds in their discord are you

hollow sparrow
#

my problem was not enough forging to up my crit avoid by one more tier, I needed to relocate passive point, so tped to end of time, too long loading, decided to do the usual Aus trick and now I am out

hollow sparrow
primal plank
#

gonna make me go to bed angry

hollow sparrow
#

angery why?

primal plank
#

cause reading what idiots type makes me angry

hollow sparrow
#

don't you get angry from your own messages then?

#

(I had to)

primal plank
hollow sparrow
#

what does that even mean

sick stratus
primal plank
#

TRUE MAN ONLINE MODE IS THE PROBLEM

#

JUST MAKE OFFLINE MODE ONLINE AND IT FIXES

hollow sparrow
#

I guess I can work a bit in the meantime

proven ridge
#

Ok you can still play europeans

#

I had to go work

gleaming jacinth
proven ridge
#

Go back in

#

Save my spot

sick stratus
#

all things considered its a fun game

naive crag
#

someone save me a spot in 1h

hollow sparrow
#

@gleaming jacinth I am not sure which one is better

naive crag
#

depends on build for me first one

full zephyr
#

bit better than my campaign axe

#

poo poo base but what can you do

distant folio
#

Didn't even know this existed tbh

hollow sparrow
#

think they added it with runemaster

#

or slightly before

distant folio
#

Ah makes sense most of my mono time was before that

hollow sparrow
#

there is also chaos one that rerolls whole web

distant folio
#

Yeah I've found that one too

#

Lol join mono, objective is a seal the gate. Gate is two steps away from me

sick stratus
full zephyr
#

% increase void doesnt do that much for me

#

these 2 weapons are like 7800 tooltip vs 7600
