If you get a group that's patient, MSM is really fulfilling once you figure it out. Though the last boss is kind of a complete joke compared to the first one.

I still can't play this game because my character is not learning the basic attack skill and therefore I cannot kill things. On two accounts now. Strangely enough works fine on EU server, but 200 ping is gonna make this poo poo unplayable. Shame, this game almost looked fun.

Assuming the sell price = 86% of buy price and combine cost = 3(rank) * 100 Then rank 4 and 5 mods are also better to sell than combine with the current fixed prices. (same as rank 1) Ranks 2, 3 and 6 are better to keep for combining into higher ranks. Sadly no infinite money loop

Tried a gunner promo and didn't really like it - now I don't know what to aim for. I have Archer (which I haven't touched) and am very happy with the mobility and general fun having of Alch. How is punchmancer? I've tried the training and it seems like your right click roots of at the end?

If you're referring to the rocks, yeah it does root you. So do several Archer attacks. It seems to be a common aspect of ranged charged abilities. To answer your question: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpuveGPBH2s

To be a little clearer, ranged charged attacks root you when you release the attack, you can still move while charging. If you dash it will break the charge, also dashing with archer resets any arrow swap you've done.

Zizi posted:For what it's worth, this lines up well with my experience playing Paladin so far. Only difference is I use the shields to absorb the weaker group and boss attacks and just dodge the big hits, but I also haven't tanked much in the way of 5-mans, either, so that may change. Not that's what you do. You are a tank but if you try to face tank the big hits without your 3 up you're an idiot. Also tanking may involve a lot of kiting in this game and for some bosses you are just better off switching to a ranged class if you have one.

I missed your edit but if anyone effortposts a guide I am going to add a link to it in the OP under the class. Some of you are a bit off base with understanding your poo poo but in time I am sure you will all suck less when you find your class of choice. I was gonna just quote the posts and drop them in the OP but motherfuckers started to drop pages of effort so I had to resort to post links. We are still short some classes with no writeups and some writeups are just someone glazing over the class from what they know in the training room and poo poo. When I get the time Ill weed out some of the garbage ones and reformat that poo poo. That paladin one that came up reciently was good but I don't know what the gently caress he ment by saying the paladin wasn't a tank and he needed to dodge. Very few bosses in the game make my paladin move with how I manage shields. The big guy in HT with the swarm of adds comes to mind. Paladins can stand in most of the poo poo in the game if you time it right. Then again I just stand in it because it's entertaining me even though I know it is needless risk that could easily be avoided. Edit: If I missed a sperg post then someone tell me so I can add it. The pages on this thread are starting to get book worthy. Drinkfist fucked around with this message at 13:58 on Jul 25, 2015 |

Yeah there are a few things I disagree with in the Paladin thing. What you said for once but also that you're never gonna use Massive Verdict in combat because it has a cast time. A fairly long cast time. Don't get me wrong it's great for pulling trash but if that's not an issue which it shouldn't be I'd almost recommend sticking with the basic damage one or oddly enough take the knockdown one for some ranged interrupt. Don't use your ultimate on trash, you have decent alternatives for that and the damage it does sucks either way. Mostly I just ignore it but with the damage resist and immunity to control poo poo it seems like another oh poo poo button for boss fights so that's probably where you'll get the most use out of it. The first two columns are easier, you want Divine Scourge and Onslaught 2 period, the third choice is sort of up to you though. I can say though that without thoroughly testing Celestial Shield 2 that my Shield 1 rarely survives the full duration, in parts because I use it for burst or it just doesn't last all that long when I'm tanking trash. For bosses it would be pretty good, those usually don't do enough damage to take it down unless you're standing in something you shouldn't be standing in but bosses are mostly easy anyway and I doubt it's worth switching it out. The final thing I can say here is that Surge doesn't seem to be worth it for the super long cooldown and the fact that you don't get to trigger it yourself.

I use the Ult on garbage because it is pretty worthless. All it really provides is another holy ground which has a stupid cooldown. Most of the boss fights I deal with only require energy room for the immortal shield which is already cheap. No reason to be dumping your energy on a barrage of attacks when you got such a huge lead on threat. I can only see that sledgehammer move the kenetics use being enough for a peel off but Onslaught 1 is enough to just retaunt that single target attack. I don't even bother using Onslaught 2 because I don't see the point. I don't want all the mobs to start the fight on top of me. It's like asking to be gibbed right off the bat. I would rather start off with a rush into Divine Scourge divebomb with the shield blow and knock everything everywhere. With the increased aggro I get from Blame it always holds the aggro. Instead of Onslaught 2 I use the two shield upgrades and just have the damage shield keep blowing up on its own if it can hold or scourge it off so aoe aggro is fine (I should mention that all my amulets buff the shield blow). The immortal shield move is great when you got someone loving around in the group and is taking unknown hits. I don't even need to monitor everyone's health because it just defaults to the low health guy(Really funny to see the necromancer wishing for death and the tank won't allow it). Oh I also use the Palm talent so the other shield also gets tossed to teammates. I see a lot of paladins using that Onslaught 2 and I still don't get it.

It's how you make sure everything is nice and close to you when you blow up your shield. It also helps wrangling in ranged mobs or poo poo that's bolting for some reason. I can see why you wouldn't want to get hit as much with Celestial Shield 2 but with 1 you want that bitch to explode on its own so you get the reduced cooldown and can put it back up, even right away if your timing is good. Also Onslaught 2 is an AoE interrupt, it stops everything that can be pulled.

I was doing Tau Experimental Station and noticed something about the first boss: His mechanic is that he breaks into 4 tinier guys when he's low on health:  But if you kill them all with the same attack, they ALL drop boss loot + Class Sparks:   The instance is short to boot too, so this is probably the best place to farm post port naori

On the other hand the two I'm most interested in, Monk and Knight, complete loving opposite ends. Also wouldn't mind Witch, but guess what? All three are three of the four edge corner classes. In an unrelated question, is saving sparks of evolution worth it for some reason or another? I feel like I'm saving them up for the eventual class unlock I care about, but I'm at least two weeks away from that point when I could be spending them on maxing out my current class to make the grind a bit easier.

Yeah reading it again the insistence I had on "Dodge everything!" seems a bit weird in that I was thinking more dodge=moving slightly to the right or left to avoid a telegraphed attack, versus literally hitting the dodge button so that comes off a bit confusing. I was just trying to emphasize "Don't stand in front of him when he's holding his axe in the air and shining." I also think that I must've been unclear in the guide becausequote:For what it's worth, this lines up well with my experience playing Paladin so far. Only difference is I use the shields to absorb the weaker group and boss attacks and just dodge the big hits, but I also haven't tanked much in the way of 5-mans, either, so that may change. is basically what I was trying to say. Use your shield on the basic attacks, move out of the way of the telegraphed attacks, use your immunity if for some reason you get rooted/can't move/have no dodges to get out of the circle in time. I really like Onslaught II because while it is basically asking to be gibbed, the Paladin also has a skill that gives immunity to being gibbed, so it works out if you stack them. It's super amazing if your allies have AoE slows because that lets you put them all in the slow and then stand back and laugh. I usually start off pulls by using Verdict from a distance, then Onslaught II -> Aegis of Light which gives the group a nice target to hit, and then I pop shield right before the 3rd hit of my combo to knock everything down right about when Aegis of Light is ending so I have space to run away.

They really need to fix the de-sync between auto attack damage and animations. TIred of popping a damage shield and still taking 1/2 my healths damage 2 seconds later because damage was calculated at the beginning of the attack and not when it connected.

Depends, unlocking every ability and talent in a class gives you another costume, more symbol slots and the class symbol. So decide if you want those! If not, spend them on the class you do want to play.
