I guess I just like feeling my character get stronger and not having a static ttk and difficulty level for it's lifecycle.

This is actually a thing with this update that's bothering me more than it really should. The feeling of character progression still being structured how it is doesn't feel right, as you never feel much of an increase in power in the first 50 levels. Add in that the leveling still feels pretty slow and it's just sorta off-putting. It's a shame as the game probably has some of the better questing in an MMO.

Reinstalled this dumb game because expansion hype is A Thing™. Also got a friend to buy it. Did they make Sorc bubble-tanking a thing? Last time I played I think it had been nerfed pretty hard. Still leveling because I level at a glacial pace.

Finally hit 50 yesterday and made it up to 33 Champion points. Any input on the best way to power to 160?

Where is your suicide tower? Asking for a friend.

this game has made me really into ES lore, which I haven't really ever cared about in past ES games

Same here, kinda. I'm not entirely engrossed at all but Sheo's story is wonderful and I'm finding several of the characters actually fun and kind of charming. So far I'm digging the Dork Brotherhood story, too.

Game is good.

God help me I'm enjoying PvP. They should leave this double AP going longer so I can bank some for gamble bags for alts. Speaking of alts, if I wanted to do something dumb like a melee DoT making GBS threads rear end in a top hat would my best bet be NB? Is that even a thing I could reasonably do? Not entirely concerned whether or not it's good I just like the DoT management minigame.

Whose stats do synergies scale off of? The person who cast the field or the one who activates the synergy?

Randomly got booted to the login screen and now I'm getting "already logged in." :psyduck: What's the AFK disconnect time in this game?

e; Apparently server melted again. So, whoever is @ChrisRocket, YOU GOT SOME CRATES TO BUY, FRIEND(4 crate bundle). :getin:

I got a bunch of junk and then got booted. I feel like ESO just rubbed salt in the wound.

Also I wanted a catte, got a doghe

I caved and got enough crowns for 4 crates. I'll regret it after I pull garbage but for now I'll bow to my gambling addiction.

We did the same poo poo again just now before the 4th hamster died. Blitzed Alessia while the Yellow horde pushed BRK. Died to the horde after we took the keep, then pulled off to Roebeck and Nikel.

Inb4 PVDOOR accusations from TM and Legion of Autism.

One day I'll actually learn to PvP in this game so I can have fun doin' shenanigans with people, because this sounds actually pretty fun. I just drop AoE puddles on my sorc which is funny against zergs but seems overall ineffectual. Are there specific sets people should shoot for for PvP purposes?

Server is back up. :toot:

Scyantific posted:

For sorcs you need to be running a ton of Magicka to keep your shields up. Which means you'll need some decent sustain as well. I'll get my sorc build posted sometime tonight. If I can log back in.

I figure I'll do it on my StamDK more than my Sorc, honestly. I like the general look of the class more.

If I want to do something probably stupid and play a DK that does almost nothing but poison everything what weapon should I be taking other than bows?

StamDK DW/Bow is the way to go.

You get both a poison claw attack and a green fire breath that does poison and weakens their armour, poison enchants on your weapons, and heavy attack like a god damned monster machine.

Been using this as a loose guide. Things seem to be dieing faster than when I used a 2h, but I'm not big on a lot of it for some reason or another.

FactsAreUseless posted:

2H and bow has a lot of DOTs and AOE stuff that plays well with their poison abilities, that's the build I have on my stamDK.

That's what I used on my last DK, and it worked alright. I'm guessing it starts to feel a lot better after unlocking more champ points?

Summerset was on sale so I guess I'm back on this bullshit. Time to steal everything that isn't nailed down while puking poison on anyone trying to stop me.

e; Looks like I got booted during an inactive purge I'm guessing. Can I get an invite to Chill Bros on @bombogenesis?
