they SHOULD be but people come in asking for an optimal delves talent build
You hate me now I’m sorry 
those cartel chips do we know when they will go away?
I could never.
Launch I think
you can still get them and spend them
but you only have about 10 days left
yeah i just wanted to make sure if i should wait to see vault or just burn thru them
It usually does matter for the highest content only
And then you get into a discussion on whose job is it to deal with it
depends on what content you're gonna do between now and Tuesday I guess
Should it be on the dev team to base their decisions around the trickle down effect
Or is it on the community to not be doofuses
The answer to that is always the doofuses
Is it
it’s a balance but it’s also not a great idea to put a ton of resources into an item acquisition quest that on balance makes people way more grumpy than happy
Think about Tazavesh hard mode
It became very toxic
Is that blizzards responsibility to design around
Or the doofuses being toxic
A lot of people would say it’s on blizzard
It’s blizzards responsibility to make a game that is well balanced and doesn’t encourage degenerate gameplay, yes
It would be if that questline was still relevant 3 xpacs later
What would 6-7 meme look like in old Rome? VI - VII 
We had this discussion earlier in bear discord, blizzard can’t obviously take fault for the community being shitters or toxic but they can design the game with systems to encourage learning and growth
a lot of players would just see that as an annoying outdated mandatory chore for every new character to do
how can that be on Blizzard if people are just assholes tho?
I actually need to do tazavesh hardmode for achhievement.. who want to do that with me NA
Because they allowed it
people are not “just assholes”
Bunch of old grumpy men being mean to each other. Smh dick measuring is old 
they react to the systems and incentives they are presented with
If zookeepers put pythons in the same exhibit as little rodent dudes and the pythons ate the rodent dudes, is that the pythons fault, the rodent dudes fault, or the zookeepers
This is a flawless example
I’m so good
No holes at all
The government
If you design a system to punish the entire group for the mistake of a sole contributor that’s going to breed resentment. Part of the game and part of life, and there’s an onus on people to not be assholes to eachother but at the same time systems to help players learn and grow and traverse are still lacking
Maybe I don't understand....you're saying people can't do certain content, so they are toxically salty about that...and that's Blizz's fault?
Dude I suck at FPS...will never be any good at that type of game...should I be salty at Treyarch, etc?
The argument isn’t that people are toxicly salty at better players, it’s that people become assholes to those around them in a system that punishes people not only with wasting time, but falling behind in power (when the whole point of the game for a lot of people is accruing power)
Ahhhh
Get better 
imagine if treyarch made a reward that required you to win with Mahkarn on your team and he kept fucking it up for everyone
In the hard mode example for instance, I ran it for a few weeks with the guild. A very close friend of mine made a mistake on an easy boss and cost us all the myth piece. It was hard even then to not be outwardly pissy about it because there goes time and effort for nothing
I’m not mad at people who finished hard mode though
Which isn’t to say we can’t have the taz hard mode
But it could have been implemented better
im back to proposing mandatory game design service for gamers
Yeah exactly. I never said hard mode shouldn’t exist, but it could’ve been implanted in a way that breeds less resentment, and that’s on blizz
If I could fix one thing with that mode, would to make it a daily lockout at worst, so ppl could feel they can fail it. Make it less stress ful.
Honestly, should just be resetable, and let ppl grind it down and learn together in an challenged yet more relaxed enviroment.
Had friends who really took it hard when they failed the group, not worth the reward at the end.
Infinite tries per week but only able to get the reward once per week
Yeah, I understand this. I'd like to say I'd be chill about it...but I probably wouldn't.
Only one reward a week is obvious, imagine if you could grind out the gear 
Yeah. I’m usually pretty chill but it’s frustrating in the moment
Get mad at them, or move on
Its just a game tho
Well no shit lil gup lol

im just chilling h raid and thats about it work is in the way
But there are also moments where the community needs to relax
Doesn’t mean I have to enjoy the experience smh my DAMN head
To be fair tho...I have never felt the lack for not doing the hardmode Taz
I know it's there, I know it's a free myth piece...but yea. More power to you if you can
it was just an early advantage thing, so if ya didnt raid HoF, it honestly wouldnt matter
lol ouch. I get what you're saying tho
And I agree it was poorly implemented
And then it mattered a lot
Me
Its not even worth it to be unemployed to play WoW ngl. U can pretty much reach everything even if u just play 2-3 hrs a day
When you learn that the higher up you go the content ladder in raid, the less time you spend raiding a season

All of this talk about how legendaries and op items wont affect anyone except the top end is tripping
While it actually only matters in top end, everyone likes to copy them
Why do u think the cringiest guilds are much much lower or aotc
Hard mode being one attempt a week is just toxic
Especially when people have been begging for years for some engaging non-timed dungeon content
Toxic, myeh-nah. Problematic, tja-nnah.
Would it be better if it wasnt? Probably.
Group of us did it first week of prepatch and it was cake
ok cool
They should make it like +15 difficulty but as many attempts as you want
Hope you mean +20 
Agreed, would be more fun
can i even.. solo it...? prob not riight
Megadungeons are so cool conceptually and I had fun in them
No
That way it still benefits those who are good at the start of the season but isn't too hard that people can't do it with better gear a bit later on
It’s still scaled up to around a 10
LOL
“they should just do” should be the trigger phrase that gets you drafted into the mandatory service
Because im not as good as you 
apb wants a Legendary Delve
We’re gettin those it’s labyrinths
When the megadelve is poggers
Yo imagine if labyrinths are like two hour solo experiences
and you have to fight ?? Kyveza each and every time
Legendary delve sounds ass, but I will take more princess like content with cool rewards
I hope delves are more exciting in midnight, the mechanics and mobs were more annoying and tedious than fun
Why are these labs so long, nerf that Blizzard yap yap yap
What if a special 4 hour labyrinth is how you get your legendary
make it 12 hours
That’s just the Lucid Nightmare mount
sounds fair, you die, you are locked out of the week
12 hours, Ky'vezza ?? on your ass the whole time, reward = legendary
sounds fair
Yes and you can only blame yourself because if you try to do it in a group the legendary won’t drop
I think I spent like three hours in the Lucid Nightmare maze that shit was ass
But lowkey I look back on it fondly
Fuck me, imagine running 1 dungeon for half a day LOL
Wait, weren't you guys just saying that hardmode Taz was toxic?
If you fail you can't play at all for a week 
The insta fail for the week from a single person’s mistake can be pretty toxic
We're being facetious
Would be funny if someone took me and Rhino seriously
Ahhh sarcasm...I see
"Yes, I love kicking myself in the balls, best time of my life"
To be fair, I forgot the
That, but unironically
You are very smart Yam
Thanks

Love... wins?
You can’t spell Yamalamadingdong without Yam
Yamela Anderson
GG Anderson
better not have 12 month sub going
Nah a 12 month sub is like 12 lives
WAIT, I got it!
You get 1% power, for each month sub you got rolling
Thats something I can think of chinese WoW lol
I am a genius, I would made blizz so much money it aint even funny
China gets Spectral Tiger in the Lunar Event too, but its behind some huge Gacha shit
Like 15 hardcore content andy's, paying blizz hundreds of k dollars in attempts, luring in the "I am hardcore" crowd andy's making millions
...
I would beat out the income from all of SC2 box sales

Wait wait
u mean CS2?
you are cute


lil gup moment
Every day after you get the legendary or gains an additional .1% of power
look at him go
I know, but that doesnt answer the question
being a lill sillybilly
SC2 is Starcraft 2
awwww
So anyone who gets it after you will be weaker than you forever
he still so cute
Ohh 
ok, we cooking up some good shit now
looks boring 
the obvious wow solution is to put every player in a simulation so all the other players are fake and it can be fine tuned to their experience
dunno why they haven’t done it yet
Its 5head, you 4head

look all im sayin is im lookin forward to labyrinth delves and hope they get a cool kiss/curse reward because i like those
And i hope they dont have a labyrinth delve talent tree like they love to do for some reason
labyrinth delves will by my new content
Valentines day was yesterday, should have tried there. Gotta wait a year again now 
I hope I can build an entrance to the labyrinth from my house
So I can either be in my house or the labyrinth and see no one ever
wait we're cooking
I hope i can build tiny pp's around my house so ppl see how cool i am 
tiny pps?
thats kinda a weird thing to do bud but you do you
Nah its advanced humor
Harrow have you watched starfleet academy
Cant tell if its Rick n Morty or not
It’s the animated Star Trek show
I’m unphased
Never understood whats so special about star trek
I have not watched any trek past ds9
I didnt grow up with it, some friends took me through the greatest hits of TNG and ds9 within the past decade
the new ones suck
Yogi on anything ever
there are new things that dont suck that come out
they call it the test of time after all
will anybody remember it in 10 years
50
og Star Trek fans were big mad about TNG when it came out
It got a long runway to become beloved
Nothing really gets that nowadays
This Academy show apparently isn’t doing very well
But I like it
I won’t ask Yogi to like it
Having not seen any of it, I get the impression that all new trek tries too hard to appeal to New Audiences which alienates trek people
and I dunno I will give it another chance though
But it’s still fundamentally too trekky for normal people
the TNG pilot is fucking atrocious lmao
it would’ve gotten torn apart so bad by today’s Internet
I think I read somewhere patrick stewart thought TNG wouldnt last 1 season
he was like what a giant piece of shit
XD
he was correct (about season 1)
Simpsons season 1 isn’t good either
hmmm
the world doesn’t give things a chance no more…
I would probably be data
hell yeah it does
worf
Acceptable
apparently the actor that played data HATED that cat
LOL
like would get scratched and shit all the time
lol
chewbacca
chewbacca is exactly like if a cat could hold a gun
No
Starfleet is definitely trying to appeal to a new generation of potential trekkies
But it kinda fits since the majority of the main cast are cadets
these heretic crusades dont stand a chance vs me
blasted through 9 maps like it was nothing in 3 hours
Where can I find the attack power scaling of Ignore Pain? Some websites list it as 1,194.38% of attack power, but that doesn't seem to align with what i'm seeing ingame
I'm not sure where to find that info but may I ask why you want to know?
To calculate the amount of Ignore Pain provided given specific attack power amounts.
It has versatility scaling as well so it's not just attack power
Well, yes, but why do you want to know that beyond just curiosity?
I'm currently taking into account the attack power multiplier of 11.9438, as well as versatility multiplier, but that doesn't seem to align with what i'm seeing ingame.
As in it's too low or too high?
With just those two multipliers, the amount calculated is less than the amount shown ingame.
Are you running colossus? Or have the talent that makes dealt damage add to next/current ip?
I am not talented into No Stranger to Pain.
What's your strength, vers and how much do you get from IP?
Strength: 700
Attack Power: 852
Versatility: 204 (14.29%)
Ignore Pain Tooltip: 13,910
Confirmed that Brutal Vitality is not talented.
It's odd cause no stranger to pain would line that up about right
but you said you're not specced into it
so idk
hm, does fishing gear still exist? like +skill poles and caps?
Does the formula work when used with your character numbers?
I ain't subbed so
What's the spell id of ignore pain rn?
190456
Yeah I'm all outta ideas
I found this which has an AP mod of 16 and says added in midnight
but still doesn't make sense
Arms specialization uses a different multiplier. We should focus on Protection specialization
It doesn't say that's arms specific so yeah I wasn't sure
Anyway good luck I'm going to bed

Great Nomeratur, I would be honored if you could bless me with the Ignore Pain calculation formula. The attack power multiplier and the versatility multiplier fall short of the ingame tooltip.
what race are you playing
and do you have field medic talented or whatever it was called
ingame tooltip afaik only displays your maximum cap which is 30% of your maximum health
not your "per press" value
I am a level 80 Dwarf.
I do not have Field Medic talented.
are you in the open world or in a dungeon
maybe your tooltip doesnt work properly cuz theres pvp scaling
just trying to cover all the bases here
i assume youre trying to make a calculator for IP
cuz the formula from wowhead should be it
I was testing in the Dornagal dummy area. I've moved to the Rookery dungeon, and the Ignore Pain tooltip remains unchanged.
Yes, a calculator for Ignore Pain.
Fight through the pain, ignoring {$s2=50}% of damage taken until {$=}{({$s1=0})*(1+{$@=}versadmg)} damage has been prevented
this is the formula on simc
now need to find out what the symbols are xd
$absorb=${($s1+$AP3.5)(1+$@versadmg)}
I'm probably not understanding correctly. I've tried this, but it calculates an amount greater than the tooltip:
(852 * 11.9438 + 852 * 3.5) * 1.1429```
1+ vers%
too many multipliers inside vers calc
its 2 seperate brackets multiplied with each other
thats the old tooltip
is there a purpose for calculating these?
its a legitimate question, but why would anyone need an IP calculator
just for fun maths maybe?
Yes. I just didn't realize it could be this complicated for Ignore Pain.
As a comparison, for another absorb-based defensive like Dark Pact, it was as straightforward as reading 'Spell Power * 2.5'.
you should see the conditionals for the sims i wrote a few years ago xd
well yeah adark pact is a full absorb not a partial one
i cleaned those this week nome
LOL
it was hell
hehe
APL isnt ready yet though
cause sims havent re upped Execute
i had to
split it like this to understand it
since entire decision making process of pwar is in Ignore Pain i wanted to be very thorough
and clean out the unnerving stuff etc
mwahi fixed a couple of things
lol
im doing my best not to ruin it

either way its back to oneline cause i wasnt sure that was gonna be parsed that way, i just did it for readability
Um, I feel that I should've understood the explanation, and I apologize that I didn't, but what was the Ignore Pain calculation formula that was found?
oh i wasnt talking about the calculation
oh .ty. i couldnt find any. just fishing to 300 tho
compare your math with this #protection message
you have Atk Power twice
and yeah like nome said
you have way too many things calculating versa
when you can just take the value from your character sheet
also whats ignore pain multi
The current Ignore Pain attack power mod is listed as 11.9438, so I used that as a multiplier. That's not correct, then?
dunno, i dont deal with spelldata
that mod is just absorb amount it is the AP mod
not what you add to IP used in the formula from the spell data
Hey guys...this isn't a warrior question, but maybe you know or know a place where I can ask: I have a new guildy that is a brand spanking new WoW player, he just bought a wow sub and Midnight. From what I've seen online, he should have access to TWW stuff from buying midnight, but he doesn't seem to. Anyone know how this should work? How he can get started? Does he still need to buy TWW? Or know a better place for me to ask?
he should have access
TWW should become accessible with level 68
He's level 80 already, and doesn't see any TWW quests.
huh
And has no portal to Dornogol
Did he use a character boost?
yeah he has to do the introduction questline
from the board of heroes or w/e its called
if he just leveld via dungeons then yeah he needs to do the questlines
to unlock zeh portal
This is the initial breadcrumb quest
If it’s not sitting in his log automatically it should be able to be found on the heroes call boards in org/SW
Okay we'll check the board we're already in Silithus and he doesn't see Jaina.
Try that
Well he had to bail out for the night, we'll try more when he comes back on. Thanks for the help guys!
Would this be the Ignore Pain formula to use?
(852 * 11.9438) * (1 + 0.1429)```
yeah sorry here we go
Stats (on my character)
14% versa = 0.14
AP = Str * Battle Shout * Mastery
AP = 699 * 1.05 * 1.142
AP = 838.1709
--------------------------------------
IP Formula:
(ATP * AP mod * X) * (1 + Versa)
(838.1709 * 11.9438 * X) * (1 + 0.14 vers)
10,010.94559542 * X * 1.14
11,412.4779787788 x
11,412.4779787788x = IP Tooltip
11,412.4779787788x = 13,736
so the ap mod is not 3.5
but yeah you got it right
ap mod = 11.9438
its not exact cause there are more modifiers
but thats obviously without BrV
The formula above gives 11,630.28, but my tooltip ingame is 13,910.
I am not talented into Brutal Vitality or No Stranger to Pain.
What else could be causing such a big differential?
additional hidden mods
ah
sorry i got it
versa is not
the damage increase amount
remember defensive portion of versa is half of the value
damage/healing = versa amount
mit = versa amount / 2
as illustrated here
so on versa you use the damage taken decrease amount
i fixed the formula above
theres a lot of decimal values etc involving versa that are probably rounded into tooltips
so its not gonna be exact
Could you confirm that Battle Shout, normally a x1.05 attack power buff multiplier, is worth x1.5 (10 times more), when used for the purposes of calculating Ignore Pain?
its .05
thats just an error, but the math is right
well actually let me check
oop nope
good catch
ok that definitely throws everything out
The differential is too large to be a mere rounding error, and while this is purely a guess on my side, I suspect either the formula is wrong, or at least one additional multiplier is absent. This was the same issue Nomeratur ran into earlier, when he was trying to figure out the formula. Do you have any idea what it could be?
only blizzard knows
we're missing something for sure, but there's no reason why it would be different than what it is in the tooltip
the zero is the problem
we have part of it due to older iterations of IP having Atk Power explicitly in the tooltip
and AP mod being a listed thing in spell data
but there is something else in there for sure
the zero is just a black box
Is that the conclusion, that the formula is simply not known at this time?
if you consider the formula not known by only missing a variable, then sure
this kinda interesting, i can repost my log that was posted in other channel early u can look at this and comapre events where ignore pain is up and when its down. but i dont know if it owuld be much help cus u want fomula
i highly recommend not talking to the dmg guy btw
youre very likely not gonna get anywhere with him
Well, if even Nomeratur couldn't solve it, then I guess it really is impossible.
Thank you for taking the time to try and help.
but its late and i dont wanna math anymore, id rather play
check event section to be hoensti dont understand all the legends in that serious but damage taken events and ucan get look into dmg taking with inore up and dmg with it off hope that helps
cus alot of people throwing around formula and no one really knows exactly. i if somone can figured out my logs can help
nobody cares about your logs
Well, in passing, Goal Seek returns one unknown variable to be approximately 1.196015423. That is, assuming it is a multiplier.
any again any time i post something an instanty block message pops up. some thing is wrong with these guys for really. they alike jealous ex girlfriends.
i dont understand
Entirely guesswork, but under the assumption that the rest of the formula is accurate (impossible to verify), and that exactly one unknown multiplier is missing (also impossible to verify), Goal Seek would be this to match the ingame tooltip:
(852 * 11.9438) * (1 + 0.1429) * 1.196015423```
ok gotcha
I'm giving up. Maybe Nomeratur will return to bless us some day
i'd say its more in line with Atk Power * AP Mod * X but either works
so basically zero (black box) = Atk Power * AP Mod * X
also if you want reference you can look at the changelog for IP, thats how we know AP is calculated in - remember this is an older version, im just putting it here to show the differences in tooltips
i fixed the formula above and put strike throughs on the stuff that i dont think is relevant, just in case we want to search back to this discussion
also its definitely the full versa amount and not the damage reducing factor
@arctic marten im suspecting its mastery
the problem
we're using Strength as AP
but not taking into consideration mastery
i dont have a character sheet with AtP values
but
let me check with just math
You’re waffling on sleep ya goober
yeah i mean mastery should be one of the multipliers on Attack power for sure
but it still doesnt quite get there
gets close though
any addition to AP will do it
racials (if any), etc
My calculations have always used Attack Power from the character sheet, not Strength, so that would likely not be the issue.
i see
mine didnt at least
tested on my 2 warriors and i get x being 1.170 and 1.206
just wanted to check if it was a constant
For really
im obsessed now with solving this
just to think its kinda irrelevant due to the tooltip reflecting the information
@arctic marten sorry for the ping
but i figured it out
its our weapon
i had forgotten all about mastery and weapon factoring into AP
but i have to confirm cause its possible your addon isn't taking it into account when displaying AP numbers
you can see it if you equip a weapon without strength
the IP tooltip changes
equip and unequip
luckily i still had this from DF s2
equipped
not equipped
mystery solved
so the IP formula (for Midnight Prepatch 12.0.1) effectively is:
IP = (AP * AP mod) * (1 + Versatility)
or
IP = (AP * 11.9438) * (1 + Versatility)
where:
AP = STR * (1 + Mastery) * (unknown Weapon calculation)
explain in unga bunga
my brain was fried like 20 mins ago but it did a second wind
god im so smart now
fair
oh u like solving things
solve what card game I have vague memories of from like 20 years ago
😭
freecell for windows 95
i just get annoyed when things dont add up
and my brain goes into looking to why its failing
the other day heard a song I haven't in a while and with that song came some memories of playing a certain game
and it now bothers me that I cant remember what it was

what platform was the game on
yeah that shit just drives me nuts
and like the only things I kinda distinctly remember is it was about cards (kinda like gwent or some such) and some knight in green ish armor
lol
i miss when you could hum songs to shazam and shit
can u not do that anymore?
idk i dont have shazam i just use my pixel's google thingie
shandalar the mtg standalone game?
lol fair
and i havent figured out how to do it
naw it was pure cards, just a board
I meant more like gwent within w3 lol
hearstone like
a cards wc3 mod?
I mean witcher 3
the only wc3 mods that i remember are DotA and Aeon of Strife - and also the Dreadlord one that you needed to figure out who it was
yeah i know gwent
pretty sure it was before wc3 but then again idk even anymore
altho maybe it was browser game too
ff8 and 9 had card games in them
😔
but yeah if it was a random browser game it could’ve been anything
yup
but god it bothers me 😭
stupid brain, either remember or don't, none of this half ass shit
😡


When taking a big hit with Stance Mastery Defensive Stance, is the entire hit reduced by 15%, or only some portion of it?
thats a complicated question
its 15% dr
so obviously its multiplicative with any other dr thats in place its an absorb
but a scenario where that would trigger would probably not happen with additional dr aside from def stance
Morning fart smellers!
or well its only 20% of hp, so it will happen more often than not
I was thinking of Will of the Necropolis, where only part if the incoming hit was reduced, but it sounds like that isn't applicable here. Thanks.
nvm its late and i was reading it wrong
late for NA 🙂
EU is Ew

dont fall for their lies

time for 
good night sweet rat
is this hero talent broken? Decimator doesn't apply deep wounds regardless of whether it's talented or not.
OK nvm it's not showing up as a debuff for some reason
Is battle scarred veteran retroactive on a hit that triggered it
Sample scenario, I have 100HP, take a post-mit 100HP hit to the face, only remaining calc in that dam taken being BSV - will the hit kill me or will it cut off the
Ok
Perfect, thanks Jakey
As a bug with calculating order of mitigations or completely fine
And also - is it applied to the entire hit or just the part that would damage you below 30%
Sorry if it sounds dumb but it's exactly how Will of the Necropolis works XD
I’m 95% sure it’s only the part that would take you below 30
That's why I gave up thinking about it plus I have no sub to test things, but I almost got hyperfocused on it
Glad I dodged that bullet lmao
did they fix battle scarred or it still ignores absorbs before popping?
as far as im aware it should fully work how we expect now
but i wouldnt be suprised if they broke it at any point

what a week huh

imagine more nerfs
removed Warrior from the game 
from the state of all 3 specs they might as well
Its funny how they buffed our execute right after nerfing it
Clearly shows they still have same problem with tuning - they are unable of thinking what will be the result of their ideas for tuning
Blizzard ebbs and flows with these things
but I think they just throw shit at the wall to see what sticks
explains like all the absurd balance changes they've made over the years
Ay but atleast D2 got an expansion, amirite 
My favorite part of them figuring out the formula for IP was the one dude posting logs while Nimchip was actively chatting with someone and then dude acts surprised Nimchip is chatting
Bear is better anyway
Something to consider

They are pressing execute! That is a problem 
... Wait, now they dont press execute! That is a problem 
My headcannon is that a dev read my napkin math of how bad exe was, then went: Oh
that is pretty bad eyh
Subtweeting is cringe we all need to bully that guy when he does it
I just wasn't around
😔
Gosh this guy I've blocked keeps talking in this public channel!!! what a weirdo!!
and I totally didn't click the messages to see that he's talking to/about me!! I just know because the messages appear whenever and only when I talk!!
Who here is blizz dev
I can’t wait for 12 hour labyrinth delves to gain our legendaries
I can’t wait for you to make an na account to play with all your faves

Ez 4k io
hate when that happens!
if I block someone they should just get banned by discord

@drowsy comet you might be right
poe players are cunts
no fucking shit, i told you this like 3 times now 
I've had like 3 bad interactions in 2 days
But it was going so well for like 13 years 😔
they are nasty cunts
game is literally not enjoyable unless ur unemployed and or rmt, theres even content creators who do lmao, POE2 is a shit show rn
poe 2 sucks so
and nah you can do well on poe 1 while having a job
it's just hard understand the game well enough to do so
literally a worse poe1 except some more classes lmao
yeah and boring/annoying gameplay and a bad endgame
I'm sure it'll be good one day tho
Hardcore solo self found
slow slop, bad endgame, shit balance of classes, bullshit, even D4 kinda feels better than this, and im not even coping
D4 got better since Bobby Slopdick left Blizzard and you feel that in the game, same as Rod Fergusson, this old gramps ruined D4 from the start
i need to stop throwing slurs, i know mods are listening..
I really don’t think they had much to do with d4 at all
There is zero chance you can actually feel a difference cuz of that wtf lol
Sounds like vibes
D4 has progressively gotten more things added to it from D3
So more people are starting to like D4 more as a result
D4 is better simply cuz they added Paladin
I gotta play that again
"Return to darkness" launch with no Holy class. Blizzard is whack.
tbh I haven't played poe 2 since like week 1
but I haven't heard anything good about it by people whose opinions I respect
but warrior week 1 was fucking atrocious
I played D4 very intensively, and since these 2 idiots left, the game did get better, look at the first D4 expansion, and compare it to the next one which releases in April or so. I grinded the hell out of each season till POE2 came out, POE2 got me hooked for a year and now I realized its just poe1 allover again and even WORSE.
my characters in D4 were really godly, D4 has a good economy too tho
It doesn’t matter how much Diablo you played, buddy. Kotick didn’t make design choices for d4
Again, seems like vibes. This stuff doesn't change overnight.
Nothing you said is a slur
Rod didn't leave THAT LONG ago.
yeah I think that's just confirmation bias lil gup
They intentionally made D4 different from D3 and the direction they went wasn’t popular
So they’ve been changing it
Rod FOR SURE had a big hand in this next expac.
You notice that after a few seasons since he left. Just look at how more open the Diablo devs are compared to while they were at Rod. Oh and fun fact, this guy blocked me on Twitter because I called him out on why he ruins D4 so much lol
Coincidence
D3 kinda feels like an traditional diablo game, but d4 felt really boring. Things did get better obviously
many felt the same that it may be the art style or the color scheme
Isn't Rod a notorious blocker? lol
I never got the complaints people had about D3 til powercreep went insane.
Rod is a giant crybaby
"It's too cartoony" mf did you skip the final stage in act 1?
like lmfao
Return to darkness was cringe af
D3 was fine before RoS, after that it became alot worse actually
I liked RoS. Shame they stopped expacs there.
I think art style and graphically, D4 has been great
I actually stopped playing D4 a bit after the first expac cuz I hated the class and the setting
still not sure if I should buy the new D4 expansion tho, maybe maybe idk. 2 weeks till Midnight imma play D2R, then Midnight, 3 weeks or so after that M+. then a month of grinding. Then D4 expansion O.o so much ngl
I like Druid
Add in that the class was super giga busted it wasn't fun to play with them trivializing everything
Thats their marketing strat
release new class, make it incredible powerful, release dope skins for certain class, nerf class after the season
going on with Paladin rn, and will happen with Warlock too, look
I'm not that cynical. Plus, I'm sure I'm not alone in quitting because of it.
Paladin at least is out now before the expac. If it's a crazy outlier SURELY they'll adjust. 🙂
i speedran lv120 Pits when Spiritborn came out, all other classes struggled to even do a 80 during that time lol
LoH brings Sets back, Horadric Cube, new endgame and all that. Think they finally woke up from their sleep lol
I never really played d3
they got cow level
and haven't played d4

poe 1 is all I need
and they keep missing with the leagues
😔
i only play diabloif it got cow level
i was playing diablo before most ppl were even born
in the world
All I've wanted since D4 released is Paladin and they burned enough good will with me that I've still not played it yet.
shut up old man
Bunch of other old people in here
No that's @solid sun allegedly
How'd I fucking know you'd say that
very apbpilled thing to say

I place him at 43
Are y’all using freedom years or Canadian age bucks
You gotta be at least 40+ to have so much doom knowledge
Born 1947 maybe 🤣
Gif search 1947 and see if we find Yogi
Simpler times

We used to just sit around the living room watching bears steal picnic baskets
Now we sit around the Internet and piss and moan about why Chex Quest is the hardest doom game
Is prot as cooked as all other aspects of warriors are?
cooked? Yes, even on a golden dinner plate
havent played it too
But Warlock in D2R right now is really nuts, kinda excited what D4 warlock will look like
Working as intended I'm sure
Fury Warrior is cooked.
Idk. I hail primarily from the PvP lands
Prot is fine
And it's roasted over there
stalking is crazy bro
I don't want to talk about it
say it. SAY IT. Say Warrior is cooked
lol uh oh
We’re like a steak would be if you microwaved it for 15 minutes
ya im slamming dudes all day today on legs until its nerfed 
fine if you mean it's fine because no one's gonna be playing midnight anyway to experience it
You could pop full cds bladestorms on a guy standing there doing nothing, and he'd lose 15% of his hp

😉
Defensively prot is more than fine from what I can tell. Offensively I think it’s a little behind maybe?
But there are a ton of bugs
Bdk is a wreck
Bear is like half bugs
It's hard to fuck up pwar defensively
Bdk just got heart strike buffed but they forgot to buff vamp strike with it lol
Wha-what you mean by that 
im pvping all day using the ability slam that hits hard on individuals
tomorow they nerf it tho
Uhhuh
I have learned I am playing monk
yeah most prot warriors that havent unsubbed are proactively leveling alts to main in minight or playing entirely different games
Ohhhhhh PvP... I thought of something WAAAY different .. I go to hell 
we both thought it
The no meme meta build for arms pvp was just all the slam talents and spamming that bitch
For still mediocre dmg

I can still see it
apb you cant save yourself outta there
:)
screenshot it we wanna see it too :p

Any dudes wanna slam? I'm feeling left out
unless ur a boomer, or really old, i get why u think that of me
lelan with that OP message viewing abilities
Is that a yes?
this my life as an arms warrior pvping
Mwahi said this place is a PG space
Bro being laughed at by a Hunter
Feels bad
I was typing in here and alt tabbed bac kin
Are you a boomer
Mwahi's my boy
survival hunter shotgun go burrrrr lol
He watched my ascension
daily reminder that I wish we had emote privileges in here
@daring marlin btw apparently he said he was "level 40" not 45
which would make my guess like spot on
I'm a genius
Wait... you all can't emote in here?
its okay if u slam dudes, we wont judge I promise
Oh damn
Rip
at this point might as well who am i kidding 
nah it was brought up some weeks back
I could never find the original message of him saying it
Ohhhhh
but I think yogi's had multiple accounts?
well shit
Yes
I don't believe that
apb dont be silent now

take it to dms
if you wanna flirt with him
😔
lmao
who want to do tazavesh hardmode this week to get achievement i am putting together and elite force for this
(NA)

Elite force formation
I- I didnt mean it that way 
This implies he leaves the house
Cam has been at working waiting for apb to bring up taz hard mode again
r u sure
Yeah I'm just making a lil joke lil gup
Taking out the trash doesn't count
Kap
like when i gotta do my fast food bang bangs
Bang bangs?
ya bang bang
to slam some dudes- okay i needa stop
I am learning the terms of the rich; forgive me
sigh I might as well downloadd grindr at this point who am i kidding
If APB doesn’t leave the house that means the picture he sent of him eating bbq was just like an image he found on the internet to trick us!
lol
i basically onyl go out for fast food or restaurant yeah
i go weeks without speaking or interacting with another human
Was that part of a bang bang sesh
nah that day just met my brother
Did you bang at Mickey Ds before you banged at the bbq joint
no but i have
gotten a quick mcchicken or somethin
on the way somewhere

I got multiple addictions
lmao
I can't tell if it's my ears or my IEMs that are fucked
left side just sounds quieter
What is an IEM
What iems do you use
Inner ear mechanism
is that like the tube in there or wat
truthear hexa
you are getting old
In-ear monitors
iems are good shit
Imagine eating out
yeah these earbuds sound better than my $200 headphones
but the left channel is fucked I think
Is that like a special earbud
I think ive heard about those, havent used them tho
Have you tried...the other ear? lolp

holy shit you're a genius
I used my IEMs at the gym for the longest time
do valsalva maneuver
LOL
I don't think you can be getting tangled in it
i just use airpods
I havent used my iems in like a year lmao, ive been thinking about using them again
Ive been enjoying the wireless life
There’s a lot I can get tangled in Leland 
its a slippery slope.. 1 day u slammin dudes.. next thing u know u out there doin a lot of weird stuff
These buds sound so good for pop/electronic stuff
like kpop
or idm
kinda meh for metal
catjam
I knew the "girl" was fake
I recently got airpod pro 3s or w/e and yeah wireless is great
Ya ive got a few pairs of iems, my best ones are thieaudio monarch mk3 or 4 i forget which
is tangled a euphemism here?
Plus the sound quality is still amazing
i alo have the pro 3 they own
Not really
I'd get caught on shit every now and then when lifting and it annoyed me
I ain't buying no $1k pair of iems
I feel like bang for your buck has to wear off at some point
it's wild how good sub $100 ones are nowadays tho
I remember when all iems sounded like shit
Wish I bought a pair sooner lol
I use the shitty wired earbuds that came with my phone and I don’t complain 
do you listen to music much
hm?
Im fortunate to not have that problem lol, im listening to music like 24/7 while working or gaming, plus streams or audio books
Although earlier i had 2 different music sources at the same time and that got me
fair
I go through phases of like 24/7 music and weeks without listening to anything
but if you're a music enjoyer, treat yourself to some non trash headphones/iems

I like that the ANC on the airpods is really good too
I wish I could listen to music more but my weak willed psyche can’t handle it. I do enjoy music though but if I’m listening to it I prefer to while driving so I can really jam
Nothin like blasting down a highway at 1am singing your heart out
idk if I should be curious or mind my own business, but wdym by that 
Sometimes I have to pause music to lock in and think about something
but other than that I dont have that issue
lmao
If I have too much audio coming in at the same time it gives me a migraine
you're such a flirty lil gup
😔
bonk
Ohh, yea I know that
Get your gup out of the gutter smh
im just too sexy 
I mean, everyone here knows… love wins
Isn’t that a song
eminem is not a song, hes an artist
son of rat
🤝
Who woulda known the prot chat was full of flirts
Hollyy smokes @lusty grotto has got hops!
Yeah, if the music has lyrics, I can't lock in at all. I have to listen to soundtracks or electronica when I need to focus
is that focused vigor in your pocket or are you just happy to see me
that's why I like foreign language music
can't understand it so it doesn't distract me as much
There's only so many of us so we all get quite comfortable around eachother

prot warriors kiss ther homies good night
I have to tank as fury because I'm stuck with a two hander, but need one hand for the shield
What till Guildford posts their forearms and we get soaked
👀
A forearm guy huh
never
okay, so im never coming back lol
you'll be back
22 years and they cant do chopping down a tree properly
You have that fireplace money burning a hole in your pocket
You can cut tree branches right now
instead look for a tree growing a mushroom
gotta build a doom house
Go play New World
harvest mushroom
