Hulk Smash! posted:Stupid things you've seen in pubbie groups, go: My favorite so far was the time I was playing as shadow, and a sage yelled at me for rolling need on a willpower item because "that's healer gear" He actually ragequit at that point because he thought I'd ninja looted twice (one time was actually winning a greed roll on a blaster rifle). Our loss I'm sure. One nice thing about FF14 (aka the most glorious and perfect video game ever) is that the game actually doesn't allow you to roll Need on an item unless the class that you're currently playing can actually use it. It stops idiots/jerks for ninja looting, and also gives new players an idea of the kind of gear that they're actually supposed to be wearing.

Hulk Smash! posted:Do you think that BW regrets offing Malgus? He's a central figure in all the CG cinematics, you get a statue of him in the CE, he's constantly throwing missions your way for group content 10-50, he's on the box art, and there was even a life-sized statue of him you could win at launch. All the other characters that got this much attention are still kicking. Marr's cool and all but it feels like the current content where Rep and Imps are side by side would be more interesting with Satele and Malgus in the same room.

It's better than that, because each link can be used five times. At least three people used mine over the last day or so and posted their links! The links posted on the official forums get used immediately, and not enough people post their own links to compensate. I must have tried half a dozen of them, and every one there was invalid. First one I tried here? Worked instantly. Goons take care of their own.

Thanks for the priorities list, that makes much more sense than the TM > Priming Shot > Tm >Priming Shot rotation. Obviously I'll switch Unload to priming when I get it.

Hulk Smash! posted:Stupid things you've seen in pubbie groups, go: Sometime before 3.0 came out I queued for a 55 hard mode flashpoint and got Cademimu. I was on my DPS sage, my best geared character with fully augmented, 180 set bonus armour and the tank was similarly equipped. The other two randoms had under 20K health apiece and had clearly never done the flashpoint before. The tank told them, "don't worry, we can carry you through this, just do as you're told when we get to the boss." We get to the first boss without incident, and the tank patiently explains the mechanics, that the droid is immune until you trap it in its own holding cell, and where not to stand so as not to get trapped. We pull, they both promptly get trapped and in the ensuing clusterfuck we wipe. "Ok," the tank says, "now you've seen the fight you know what not to do. This time we'll get it." Then there's a pause, and he says, "Man, you really need to gear up a little." Without a word, they both quit. The tank then tells me, "I just inspected their gear. For starters, the healer's mainhand was a level 10 green lightsaber." The punchline is that if they'd just stood out of harm's way we could still have carried them through it. As it was, we pulled out companions and finished without a hitch.

You may think you're making it quicker by just mashing, but you have to fight a bunch of champion droids if you screw it up AND you miss out on easy XP. Now, if no one knows how to do it and it's going to take you an hour to figure it out, just mash through it and say eff the XP.

My best KDY puzzle story is the time I was grouped with random people and I personally stepped up to do the puzzle, and one of the other dudes said "if u get this wrong your a loving idiot!" Oh really? Big words from a guy making zero effort to help. Of course I did fine with it. I like to quote that guy now when I run it with my buddies.

You may need to have e-mail notifications enabled. Personally, I just kept getting error codes every time I clicked on a cantina link, then I logged in and got a pink penis speeder for all my toons, so it worked somehow. Even if you get an error message from the website, it might be worth logging in just to see if you got a cantina mail. thrakkorzog fucked around with this message at 12:37 on Apr 23, 2015 |

Rolled a ShieldTech, got it to level 13 last night (which is nothing I know). That is a stupid simple rotation for surprising DPS. Will it stay that way? With Treek that thing just cannot die it feels.

With Treek that thing just cannot die it feels. No it's just being such a low lvl. All the rotations were simplified with 3.0 but at endgame you'll do about 1/3 of the DPS of an actual DPS.

Yeah I was reading that too. Being that I love to occasionally PVP, I figured that was the route I'd go. There was a picture on the OF of some dude doing 1.5 million damage in a PVP match against a bunch of Assassin tanks. Noone else broke 1 million damage. Cripes. I know it won't do the DPS of my Arsenal merc, but will it actually be able to finish poo poo off solo or would it be better to stick with the Arsenal for solo grinds?

Medullah posted:I've heard that in pvp tanks in dps gear actually wreck poo poo. Not true in PvE of course. In Ranked because of matchmaking it's DPS in Tank gear and stance that can swing a fight. Skank tankers. If Bioware ever gets around to caring about Ranked balance they'll start by making the various stances passives that are automatically applied when you pick a Discipline. In regs it's a give and take...more DPS for less survivability. A Tank in DPS gear will do about 2/3'rds the DPS but can be easily blown up if they actually try to Guard someone against players who know what they're doing. If medals impress you then this is the build for you.

That's me as a Balance Sage with not a single cast of Forcequake. A good player is a good player no matter the spec...fundamental skills carry across any build. Also in the SS you mention above I guarantee there was an exceptional healer propping him up.

I no longer believe this loving statue of Mandalore exists. It's a hoax. I'm guessing the black/black dye has the same chance to drop as this alleged statue and I've seen two of those go by. All my mailbox buddies on Ord Mantell have disappeared one by one, and only I remain. gently caress you, RNG.

Stuff seems to be picking up in the game again, so I'm coming back. My Sith side mains are Kamdeer and Partheer and I've been living in the IRC channel #torgoons for years like a horrible hobo. Please come talk to us about lightsabers and movies and how much you hate EA and Bioware.
