the earpads on my headphones are fucked

but replacements are like almost 40 quid

absolute scam

[lusty grotto]

i did tell them

monta is me btw

[round pendant]

and my earbuds have like scuffed volume in the left channel

I need some sound advice 😔

[sterile coral]

Hello guys, what is the build that does the most damage currently?

[lusty grotto]

TBD

we're not focused on prepatch

but i can suggest something

depending on what you play

thane or colossus?

[sterile coral]

the viable for more damage :/

[lusty grotto]

again its hard to say between the 2, because its prepatch

[undone beacon]

They do more or less the same damage right now

Do you want to thunder clap or do you want to demolish

[lusty grotto]

if you dont know what you want i would suggest using the wowhead builds

or the icyveins builds

[sterile coral]

TC is nerfed 🙁

[lusty grotto]

both of them work

says who

tc aint nerfed

it does a lot more damage than before the prepatch

so...

[sterile coral]

okok

ty for tip

[lusty grotto]

it depends on your point of reference

[undone beacon]

Thane is fine. Col is fine. Go to wowhead and grab whatever build is reccomended

[lusty grotto]

but again since you dont know, use the wowhead/icyveins builds

[sterile coral]

I'll go thane for now, then wait the launch and see

[lusty grotto]

we will have numbers by then

but numbers by themselves wont really matter until when the season is about to start

so check back then

[drowsy comet]

my boy got his cheeks clapped

[agile elbow]

Is this a d2 chat now

[drowsy comet]

Yes

[tribal wharf]

the high runes just never drop for me lol

[undone beacon]

this is #off-topic

[tribal wharf]

dead game dead chat

im here to revive it

[drowsy comet]

its Singleplayer, and yes i admit it, I did download a bunch of D2 saves a while ago^^

[agile elbow]

I hope they release more overpowered classes for D2 so you can have zero problems getting to end game Baal runs great move blizzard

[drowsy comet]

SP is just so much more chill than Online D2, you basically have everything in SP lol

[drowsy comet]

thats just a HUGE skill issue if you are struggling to get to Hell Baal

[tribal wharf]

i did it one time

killed him on bowzon

online mode

but as solo

[drowsy comet]

I played D2R more back on Xbox, and even with controller the gameplay is just smooth af

I love the graphics, playing it on full max settings and still have over 300 fps without any issues

[tribal wharf]

i have like 4 characters that are in hell mode

but only 2 of them have gear for it

[drowsy comet]

I remember playing a really cheap/noob friendly bone necro on xbox, that I was able to farm /p8 hell with, got some nice drops, even a Ber rune. Which in SP wasnt very useful alone..

[tribal wharf]

bone spear is a trap build

act 2 at the find the temple at the end

there is guys everywhere with just magic immune

[drowsy comet]

Yea immunities are a annoying thing, just gotta skip it

[round pendant]

god I can't wait for poe league

[drowsy comet]

heard the Sanctum teaser?

[round pendant]

it's not sanctum

[drowsy comet]

yea but something is gonna happen, they didnt put a sanctum teaser out of nowhere on twitter tho

[round pendant]

it's not a sanctum teaser

it's just an hourglass and sand

[remote ocean]

is there a way to make special bars always be like, 1 through 5 hotkey, instead of following the main action bar?

[round pendant]

they're not going to make another league for one of the most poorly received mechanics in the history of the game

[drowsy comet]

themed around maraketh - sanctum

[round pendant]

it won't be sanctum everyone hates sanctum

they'd do sanctum if they wanted to have the worst player retention out of any poe league in history

[drowsy comet]

they will probably rework it how they did with breach

[drowsy comet]

Kalandra league 2.0

[round pendant]

no one wants sanctum fundamentally it's not fun

[drowsy comet]

mark my words, they gonna rework it for the league

[round pendant]

well

I'll be here to tell you

https://tenor.com/view/itodaso-atoadaso-trailer-park-boys-gif-18296604

if it's sanctum I won't be playing

[coarse bay]

Unless there’s a section in keybindings for it specifically, it always just replaces main bar

[round pendant]

although I might since I got a taste of pbod in phrecia so I could play brands which are op for sanctum

[remote ocean]

💩 ty.

i just cannot justify paying for nitro

[undone beacon]

I saw osu and tagged out sorry

Do you mythic raid

[tribal wharf]

it was the first shorts that fit the bill

i could edit that shit out if i cared

I can’t remember if you are a raider also or just a dungeoneer

[tribal wharf]

i dont care for the osu neither, but i wanted the dancing anime girls

since thats what the game is

[solid sun]

I wonder if we could ever get a rhythm game as a raid boss

[coarse bay]

Im a casual, i delve and quest

[solid sun]

And as you progressed through difficulties the song became harder

[tribal wharf]

i wonder if blizzard will ever do IO in game

[coarse bay]

Blizzard has a mythic rating in game

[undone beacon]

we already had the Nathria dancing boss

[tribal wharf]

they do it for pvp, but it doesnt go down for pve, only at reset

[solid sun]

But that wasn’t really a rhythm game pash

[undone beacon]

boogie down

prance forward

shimmy right

sashay left

[solid sun]

Like what about a rock band boss

[lusty grotto]

anyway this is 100,000 spice sand

[undone beacon]

People dont like snappy mechanics in their raids

[coarse bay]

If streets is their idea of a rock band boss, ill pass

[undone beacon]

OR having to have quick pointed reactions

[tribal wharf]

i think if you throw a bad wrench in keystone and screw it up really badly lose a couple points from score, if reported for it

[coarse bay]

Idk that’d open it up for a lot of toxicity, mistakes happen at all levels

[undone beacon]

So many people bitched about the ky'veza delve boss because it was "if you mess up a quicktime reaction you're dead"

[tribal wharf]

thats why if reported only

[solid sun]

A lion doesn’t concern themselves with the opinions of the baddies

Or something

[undone beacon]

riding the worm might be off the cards though

that was the whole point of the game tho

[lusty grotto]

riding the worm you mean?

[jagged pier]

whats the point in the dune game if u cant ride wormge

[lusty grotto]

you bait them with thumpers

to other people

they get eaten - lose all of their inventories

because of that i dont think it'd be good if we could ride them

LOL

[toxic pewter]

ok damn that sounds fun as hell lmao

[lusty grotto]

but yeah im pretty sure they've thought about it

[toxic pewter]

i ambasically paul atreides irl

but u could ride wormge into other players and they loose their inventories still

[lusty grotto]

yeah

@undone beacon man ive missed heybear. I havent been looking in that discord since prepatch, the vibes arent right

It’s become very harsh in there I feel since prepatch

The vibes are off for sure

[round pendant]

bear discord?

That sucks

Yeah

[round pendant]

It's because there's no yam yammering

That can't be it, I'm the biggest doomer around

[jagged pier]

i see heybear i type heybear

[solid sun]

I might have to revisit the sand dunes

[strong forum]

[undone beacon]

It’s mostly just complaining and dooming about bugs and talking about minor talent optimizations in prepatch and hoping things work for xpac launch

[coarse bay]

Ya its a very serious place, same with pally discord but that one’s kinda always like that

[solid sun]

Imagine being serious

We only get serious when people ask how to track IP

[toxic pewter]

I am considered by many to be a very serious individual

[solid sun]

That’s true apb

I think you have some paladin in your blood

[toxic pewter]

[coarse bay]

A paladin among us 😯

[solid sun]

If you remember

APB was singing prot paladin meta claims early on this beta cycle

[coarse bay]

Oh true

A paladin believer

[solid sun]

Very interesting development

[round pendant]

I diagnose that place with a lack of Yogi-like characters to spice things up

[toxic pewter]

part of what makes the people love me is i tell it like it is

[undone beacon]

Honestly yeah. It’s all business there’s no shitters

[solid sun]

Do they have any tweeners

The people who can both be business or shitter

A lot of our regulars can meme and also can provide good information when people come looking for help

[sharp gale]

If your channel is not #general 90% of the time, boring

[solid sun]

This is general

I actually forget there’s an actual general channel most of the time

[undone beacon]

All the cool people are here anyways

I do enjoy friendly chatter or occasional debate intermixed with game discussion, makes it less dry and depressing

[coarse bay]

Ya i’d be sad if this channel became all biz

[undone beacon]

Figured it’s hyperbole but you don’t want people in your life who constantly try to cut you down

Had a “friend” like that in college who constantly made fun of all my interests

[round pendant]

we both play poe and talk about poe a lot

but he has like 5x the hours as me

idk if I can type the word without getting automodded

so I'll miss something for example and he'll just call me a r-word

and I wouldn't care if it was bants but it's always just mean spirited

[undone beacon]

nah fuck that noise

[coarse bay]

A lot of long time poe1 gamers are so elitist

[undone beacon]

Bants are one thing but being a dick is another

[round pendant]

And it's like dude I'm just trying to vibe and play the game and talk to my buddy about said game

[coarse bay]

Ya people take that game way too seriously

[undone beacon]

Plus you have the prismatic jew so you win anyways

[coarse bay]

And being like that to a friend under any circumstance is shit

[undone beacon]

[round pendant]

I've been playing for like 8 more years than him lmao, he just has 10k hours while I have 2.5k

lmao

[round pendant]

I take games seriously but I don't insult my friends ever

[coarse bay]

Ya

Idk especially over a pretty much single player game

[round pendant]

yeah we don't even play together, nothing I do impacts his game lmao

[coarse bay]

Im not gonna fart in someone’s cereal because they do something sub optimal

[undone beacon]

if you mine my diamonds I will unleash a barrage of slurs (/s)

[round pendant]

[coarse bay]

Thats just crazy toxic

Like not even in a fun way

[round pendant]

Even if I'm wrong it's like bruh

just say no that's not right

[undone beacon]

Yeah that’s some like high school boy level of socially underdeveloped toxicity lol

[round pendant]

why insult me lmao

[tribal wharf]

the reason i have less diamonds in d2r is cuz they are big resist in shields and attack rating on weapon

rubies is simple too, life

[undone beacon]

Yogi you are a beloved treasure to this discord

[coarse bay]

All im saying is build your own mines

[round pendant]

god I feel like shit now

[tribal wharf]

i pick up every single gem

and today it has paid off

[round pendant]

I've become softer as I've gotten older though and I don't just mean because I've let myself go

😔

but I'm at this point where I want my friendships to be basically positive and not vibe terrorising me every other conversation

is that too much to ask 😔

[round pendant]

we all love yogi

[undone beacon]

I mean that’s absolutely a fair thing to ask for. Just because your norm was being surrounded by toxic assholes doesn’t mean you have to keep being in that cycle

It sucks to lose people or cut off friends but you need to look out for yourself first and foremost

And I don’t think that’s becoming softer, I think that’s maturing

[round pendant]

Yeah but in the past I'd just not give a shit if someone called me stupid over something like this

but then I always think how I don't treat anybody like this so why do I let myself get treated like it

[coarse bay]

Ive also had a mindset change when it comes to gaming in general. Like i will never talk shit or talk down on how anybody wants to play their game, because everybody plays games to unwind and chill

[undone beacon]

Words have power even if you aren’t consciously acknowledging them, and being called names constantly doesn’t do good for the ol mental

[coarse bay]

Idk people get so bent out of shape with how someone else is playing their game

[round pendant]

Yeah I mean it's even happened in this discord

not by the regulars really

but some newbie will ask something and get laughed at instead of just answered

and I'm just here like bruh just answer the question or don't say anything

[undone beacon]

That’s why I try to just answer earnestly even if I don’t know if it’s a serious question cuz like

you never know

[coarse bay]

Max was right

[undone beacon]

Bear discord has a lot of that weird energy rn where people ask questions and the answers come across as hostile

[lusty grotto]

i try to be nice, but if i sniff a whiff of hostility i go all out

[undone beacon]

Nim smells blood and goes all in

[lusty grotto]

and i have a good mouse nose

[coarse bay]

Ya i noticed people coming off as hostile from my perspective

[round pendant]

Yeah I ain't trying to say I'm perfect like how I called nimchip an idiot the other day

[lusty grotto]

but i am an idiot

so u right

[round pendant]

but like I try not to be mean spirited towards anybody

sometimes I fail but I think mostly I'm pretty good

And this guy calling me dumb whenever I miss something on poe or whatever

There's literally zero point outside of making me feel bad

same as when newbies get laughed at in class discords

[coarse bay]

[round pendant]

You're not an idiot, you just have some cooked takes like the rest of us

[round pendant]

no

don't bring the story of poor khailby up right now

[lusty grotto]

I got tired of him being an ass in the pvp channel

[jagged pier]

why are we bringing up Khailby

tangentally is anyone watching Sentenced to be a Hero?

[round pendant]

Were people bantering or was he straight up being an ass

I feel like khailby was one of those struggles to fit in types

he is a youngun so it's not surprising

[undone beacon]

I think it started as trying to banter but he took it too seriously and then started being outwardly hostile

[lusty grotto]

ah no

not the alavisto treatment

[round pendant]

Bad at reading the room ig

Also might have been on edge after getting effectively bullied out of here

I won't point fingers though

[cerulean tusk]

[lusty grotto]

ehh given that we have someone that literally cannot read a room

[coarse bay]

Imo he wasnt really bullied out of here, he chose to leave

I tried to convince him to stay

[undone beacon]

He chose to leave after having a bad key experience with one person in this channel

[round pendant]

Yeah, after he had a bad experience with someone I warned him to avoid

[coarse bay]

Ya i tried reasoning with him about the fact that there was a bunch of people in here that had and will help him

[round pendant]

I don't think khailby is a bad guy

is all

[undone beacon]

I never said he was a bad guy overall but I will say I felt he was growing increasingly hostile in other channels so I stopped engaging

[round pendant]

yeah I never saw any of that so

[undone beacon]

I think he's a kid who wanted to try and fit in and took the social aspects here a bit too seriously

[round pendant]

I'll take your word for it

[coarse bay]

If he feels like he fully needs to distance himself from someone he doesnt like or vibe with, i respect it. It’s just that imo you need to be able to just ignore or block one person when there’s a whole community here for you

[undone beacon]

pvp channel is a scary place

[lusty grotto]

well for starters i hope he wasnt doing prot pvp

cause i would have joined in with the pvp channel

[undone beacon]

bdk pvp

[lusty grotto]

ok then im glad hes gone

[coarse bay]

He’s very active in bdk discord now

[undone beacon]

he had me help him learn bear but i dont think he ever did any content on it

[coarse bay]

Not one tricking is a mistake when learning imo

[lusty grotto]

thats kind of the correct approach i would say

[undone beacon]

Duality of man

Unless nim is agreeing with cam

[round pendant]

eh playing your spec properly is only a small part of tanking

[undone beacon]

in which case, unity of man

[lusty grotto]

no i mean

focusing on warrior

i agree with cam

you gotta 1trick

[undone beacon]

Got it, in that case unity

[round pendant]

holy

that brings me back

I met one of my longest internet friends on the irc server of a f2p korean fps game I played back in 2005

via mIRC

[cunning oriole]

One of the coolest things internet ever did...and the most dangerous lol

[round pendant]

Man

I wanna go back

Those truly were the good ol days

[lusty grotto]

i chatted up with some pretty disgusting people in irc

in hindsight

one in particular i wish i knew how to report to the authorities

it always bothers me

[round pendant]

I avoided weirdos pretty well thankfully

[sharp gale]

I was a dumb naive kid, I couldn’t conceive ppl being weirdos

[lusty grotto]

yeah i mean, there weren't a lot of them

but still

[round pendant]

yeah I've met some dodgy people but quickly avoided them

but in terms of who I actually hung around and spoke to, most were pretty chill

[solid sun]

We’re so chill

Whenever people talk about interacting with others on the internet I think about Mike Tyson

“Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.”

One of our time’s greatest thinkers

[lusty grotto]

he aint wrong

[solid sun]

He isn’t

[sharp gale]

I don’t think it is limited to social media or the internet

[lusty grotto]

it is

because of anonymity

[solid sun]

And distance

[sharp gale]

I used to be physically punished/humiliated the shit out by my teacher in kindergarten, and later in highschool when it was long time banned, kids just bully teachers

[lusty grotto]

uhh yeah but

thats just people being assholes

[round pendant]

Disrespecting people irl gets you headbutted

[sharp gale]

Or ppl being racist in your face

[round pendant]

Disrespecting people on the internet gets you clout with your fellow losers

[solid sun]

Happy are you okay

[sharp gale]

No, bc headbut someone is worse PR than disrespect

[solid sun]

Idk if I’m understanding your statement correctly but it is extremely concerning

[lusty grotto]

happy the point is, in RL there are repercussions

[cerulean tusk]

Night Elf is BiS, rest are sub races not worth the anima holding them together

[round pendant]

Someone that regularly harasses people online is not going around harassing people irl

because they know they'd get their teeth knocked out

[sharp gale]

Im maybe just less sensitive to the awful things happening every day in the 90s, im just it’s just normal

[solid sun]

I know rn in NA anyways, students bully teachers a lot. It’s actually a pretty big issue that needs swift resolution. It happens because the teachers are powerless to do anything and school administration has yet to adequately answer it. Whatever that might look like

[sharp gale]

Harassing someone online is harassing someone irl, the victim will slash themself in both + it is usually both, if you are harassed on social media, they are harassing you in front of your home

[solid sun]

But just thinking about standard interactions, Yam has the right of it. Plenty of people spout off on the internet who would never do that irl. They’d be terrified

[cunning oriole]

I just miss being able to have a debate about the merits of an idea without the equivalent of

https://tenor.com/view/gollum-lord-of-the-rings-im-not-listening-lotr-gif-12832328

[warm plinth]

...hi

[cerulean tusk]

Hi

[cunning oriole]

but yeah, anonymity really shows you who people are

[warm plinth]

Perceived anonymity is just as good for most

[sharp gale]

A stranger insulting you in the street is anonyme

[round pendant]

Yeah but I can headbutt them

[cerulean tusk]

Bricks and stones might break my bones, but your words will never hurt me

[sharp gale]

They can take out a knife, don’t headbut ppl ever

[cunning oriole]

I may not know their identity, but I can size them up for a smack to the mouth

[lusty grotto]

rip my sandcrawler, its worm food

[cunning oriole]

lol the irony of this is...I have been meaning to greatly curtail my online presence

[solid sun]

Did you get too greedy

[lusty grotto]

yeah

but you can recover vehicles now

[round pendant]

I don't and likely wouldn't. But the point is people who want to be nefarious irl have to deal with the potentiality of facing repercussions

[lusty grotto]

im just sad about the spice it had

[round pendant]

online people can be horrible and there's basically no chance they get in trouble for it

in any form of trouble

The only thing you can hope for is that they grow a conscience

[cerulean tusk]

Or put em on ignore

[solid sun]

Or get vote silenced in skyhold

[round pendant]

Sure, but not all damage is done via direct communication

How about we just apply some standards to peoples' behaviour

[lusty grotto]

the only way to solve it is with proper education/parenting

[round pendant]

I felt bad enough griefing people on gmod as a kid that I never did it again

[sharp gale]

But on the irl self protection side, menace of physical repercussion is the answer, but actually act it, big no, a rock hit on your head or a any knife stab and you are dead

[cerulean tusk]

Think you should just accept that some ppl aint worth listening to. Especially since it is so simple to ignore em

[lusty grotto]

yeah that too cat

[cerulean tusk]

Especially rats in hat and their opinions on soda

U r wrong

[lusty grotto]

[solid sun]

Cat

Do you value rhino opinions

[warm plinth]

Is his opinion that dr. Pepper is trash because I agree

[solid sun]

Or are rhinos too close to rats

[lusty grotto]

i said nothing about Dr Pepper

[cerulean tusk]

When i agree with em

[lusty grotto]

yogi did though

[warm plinth]

Okay well it's still trash

[solid sun]

It isn’t trash

[round pendant]

That's fair, but it doesn't change the fact it's wrong for people to be cunts on the internet

[solid sun]

It’s a delicious beverage

[sharp gale]

Dr Pepper is kinda really rare here, but I like it, I sometimes drink jagermeister with it

[sharp gale]

I am heavily pessimistic on human nature

[solid sun]

I’m only hurting myself

[cerulean tusk]

You should, some ppl are weird

[round pendant]

I'd rather not participate than block someone who's a regular

because it just makes the chat unusable

That's why it's the worst when some group lets some rotten individual stick around

[lusty grotto]

i dont block, but i mentally ignore

to solve that

[cerulean tusk]

If you start blocking ppl to the point of chat not working, that chat likely aint for you

[round pendant]

Bruh

blocking one person can fuck it up if they're active

[lusty grotto]

yeah yam is right

shit just becomes disjointed

[round pendant]

especially in discord when it spams you with "X blocked messages"

[lusty grotto]

and its hard to follow along with what we're talking about

the lx guy was just a bad apple, his disc history is just him yelling at people

it was 3am that makes sense

I'm grumpy when my insomnia is insomnia-ing

that's also around the same time at night that I called nim an idiot

[solid sun]

Cam has never been blocked because they’re vastly superior to me

[lusty grotto]

i went over it cause he commented on me being here for long and i just didnt recognize the name

[sharp gale]

I highly suspect he is French

[lusty grotto]

i usually remember names

[undone beacon]

Yeah he accused yam and nim of being boyfriends but I’m yams wife so I was pissed

[round pendant]

I know his type, angry brit who thinks it's funny to just be a shitheel 24/7

because I'm a brit

For French influenced English I have hints with heavy usage of , or autocorrected t’ / adjective placement, long sentences

[round pendant]

it's super hard to describe but I know it when I see it

They write how they speak, if that makes sense

[solid sun]

Yeah I feel like typing would take forever if I did it exactly how I speak

[cunning oriole]

Doesn't everyone write how they speak?

[round pendant]

yeah but no

[sharp gale]

They write how they think*

[cunning oriole]

interesting...never really thought about

It isn’t a direct 1:1 for me

I def speak a little differently I think

it was this channel

more like "alright bruv?"

[coarse bay]

OOOOH i was there for that

Also, genuinely convinced anyone who uses the 🤣 emote is a clown
