Ok I booted up PoE and I think I've settled on "Shadow" as my class. Is this a huge mistake? Normally, I wouldn't feel the need to ask this question but given how PoE goes I would hate to get into the league and have someone go "lol why'd you pick that class"?

4,000 hours in that game and I have no idea what to tell a brand new player but you can look at what the popular characters are each league using Poe.ninja

Shadows are good at damage over time/poison and chaos damage builds, and critical hits via assassin ascendancy (each starter has multiple)

Trickster used to be fun, but squishy

How the heck do I dual wield? I found a 2nd dagger but trying to equip it just swaps it into my primary weapon slot. Do I need a specific skill or trait or something to dual wield?

E: NM, the new league doesn't start until tonight. I thought it started yesterday.

Not sure about the dual wielding, you definitely can but can't mix certain things, so my first question is are you sure they're both daggers

Also the new league started last Friday

(At the time of this post it was not Monday, anywhere)

Don't worry about it.
I don't know anything about Path of Exile, but I got one of those discount coupons for Warframe so I could finally buy slots for more robot bodies and started pumping them out of the easy bake oven. Really digging Vauban, who throws traps and Sonic the Hedgehog speed boost pads everywhere, and Valkyr, who is robot lady Wolverine and screams to power herself and friends up.

Yeah Warframes a fun one def. Good monetization overall imo vs peers.

Communist Q posted:

A friend of mine, who's a musician, recently told me about how he made one of his weirder albums. Apparently he took a fist full of ambien and proceeded to blackout for a few days. A couple of days later he receives an envelope in the mail he sent to himself while blacked out. Inside was a letter that was indecipherable and a thumb drive containing some music. While most of the album isn't worth listening to, this song is.

if you could get it trending on social media you could probably convince people it was made as a tie-in for The Owl House

Yeah, it teases you to spend IRL money but after I understood the menus I could see if you're just patient and treat it as a game you play a couple hours every day or two it's pretty fun.

Some designs are cool, some get silly but I guess it is an anime robot ninja game. The big bottleneck definitely seems to be having more warframes to keep combat interesting because yeah I was getting bored of doing a similar loop of missions with only 3 of the things.
