The Bridge

Krazer

12:03 AM

@Wipqozn The crafting system is a lot deeper than other games

I'm on Gilgamesh, the game is a lot more fun with friends than solo. It's one of the better new MMOs out there

Yuki

@Krazer Oh god, stop tempting me.

Big question: can you conceivably advance through FFXIV and not fight a single monster?

Wipqozn

Okay. I might just give it a shot with my friends. WE wouldn't be playign for a couple more weeks anyways, so I've got time to decide.

PArt of my problem is thinking I should just go back to Guild Wars 2 instead...but I've only got one friend who would go back to that with me.

badp

Games that require playing with friends to be fun are the worst

Wipqozn

Oh well, plenty of time to figure it out. Thanks for the input.

@badp It is annoying

badp

Real life and timezones get in the way all too often

Wipqozn

12:11 AM

luckily the friends I'd be playing with ar elocal

okay I'm off, toodles

Krazer

@Yuki you have to get to lvl 10 before you can do other classes, but after than you can just pick up an crafthing and gathering class and not fight another mob

@Wipqozn make sure to choose a non-legacy server unless you have friends who are legacy

Frank

12:39 AM

I wish there was a way to test DPS numbers. On paper, my set fist weapons have higher DPS, but I have both a Thunderfury, and a Fulminator.

Sterno

@Frank Yeah. It's frustrating. The best you can do is a few runs against someone like Ghom

and track kill time

Frank

@Sterno Problem is, those weapons are more meant for group fights, not single bosses.

Otherwise, that might work quite well.

Sterno

@Frank I'm pretty sure Thunderfury at least hits the target as well as others, so it's useful for that

Frank

@Sterno True

Sterno

Honestly, my group DPS is never the problem... it's elites and bosses

Thunderfury really helped make T3 less painful though

Frank

12:42 AM

Well, I just did about 35 million damage to an elite in...ten seconds? Or so?

Without even targetting it.

Sterno

That's always good.

Last night I found shoulders or bracers or something that give you xp when you pick up gold

but it's at a 1:1 ratio, which is laughably useless

Frank

@Sterno Bracers. Got that.

It's roughly a 1.22:1 ratio. Not awesome, but every little bit helps.

Sterno

My lifetime gold pickup for the character wouldn't even get me a single paragon level

Frank

(Yes, I calculated it)

I kept mine because they were decent, and I rerolled into +19% lightning

Sterno

wait... those bracers can roll +elemental?

Frank

12:47 AM

@Sterno Yep

Sterno

oh, I'm thinking gloves

all bracers can, right?

Frank

@Sterno To my knowledge, yes.

I believe legendaries are the only ones who can go above +15%, though.

Sterno

I finally got Anduriel's Visage but 15 forgotten souls later and I still havent managed to reroll +% fire into +% lightning

Frank

@Sterno It took me forever to turn my Eye of the Storm reroll into crit chance.

It was costing over a million per roll by that point.

Sterno

I hope they never nerf Harrington's Waistguard. The +100% damage is what makes T3 viable for me right now

In terms of not being painfully slow

Frank

12:51 AM

@Sterno I just salvaged mine in place of a Thundergod's.

Sterno

The only thundergod's I've gotten had really shitty rolls. Including Int as a main stat

I've gotten 3 harrington's. The last was so good I haven't even rerolled anything on it

Frank

@Sterno In which case, re-roll one for perfect stat.

Sterno

My forgotten souls have been needed elsewhere so far

but yeah, eventually

or the secondary gold find into a weak resistance (if later I have one)

Frank

@Sterno TIL: Not all secondaries can be re-rolled into all other secondaries.

There are, apparently, two different groups.

I've been trying to install Steam on Crunchbang, even to the point of adding the Ubuntu package lists to my /etc/apt/sources.list.

@RavenDreamer So. Friggin'. Jealous. I haven't played Monster Hunter in weeks, possibly months.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@SaintWacko You do!

Raven Dreamer

@Yuki Did you see the Famitsu scans about Steve?

Yuki

@RavenDreamer ?

Raven Dreamer

1:42 AM

He's the new flagship monster for 4U.

Someone asked a Capcom forum... admin? I think? Anyway, he offered "Steve".

Someone asked for what to call him. "Why not Steve?"

Yuki

@RavenDreamer This guy?

Raven Dreamer

Yea.

"Steve".

Yuki

Yep, I'm getting a very strong "Steve" vibe from him/her/it.

Looks really generic and unoriginal though. Hopefully the AI is innovative.

Raven Dreamer

He moved sorta like a Nargacuga in his unveiling, so folks are thinking Pseudowyvern.

...are any of the AI really innovative?

Though come to think of it, I did hear about Brachydios charge / pounding up cliffs to get at you.

Yuki

@RavenDreamer Well, I meant more like I don't want it to be a Rathian/Rathalos clone.

Raven Dreamer

1:45 AM

@Yuki Fair enough. I concur.

Yuki

Flagship monsters should have interesting fight strategies, should be something you haven't faced before.

Like Zinogre's charge mechanic.

Raven Dreamer

So +Brachydios and +Zinogre, less so Lagiacrus?

Yuki

Tigrex's ridiculous rage mode.

@RavenDreamer Lagiacrus had underwater going for him, that's about it.

On release, it was an interesting fight because you could move in 3D.

Raven Dreamer

Yeah. And way more fun to fight than Rathalos. I'll take electric storms over flying in the air forever, any day.

I am really looking forward to 4U.

Yuki

@RavenDreamer I know, I want it to be next year already.

Raven Dreamer

1:48 AM

All of the jump attacks!

ALL OF THEM!

Yuki

Raven Dreamer

Insect Glaive, now.

Because AMURIKA.

Yuki

Although it seems I might be using the Charge Axe more as everyone wants to get their hands on the Insect ~~Staff~~ Glaive.

Raven Dreamer

Charge Blade.

]And yeah, I want that one more, these days, I think.

I think micromanaging insect buffs might be too... micro-manage-y for my liking.

Yuki

@RavenDreamer Glaive is a pretty cool word, the only problem being that half of the Insect Glaives I saw in the trailers didn't have a blade at the end.

Raven Dreamer

1:52 AM

@Yuki Are you familiar with the Order of the Stick?

Yuki

@RavenDreamer Somewhat.

Raven Dreamer

Because they have a very good example of why classifying polearms is nutty.

Yuki

@RavenDreamer Yes, but glaives at the very least have a blade of some sort at the end.

Typically single-edged, IIRC.

Raven Dreamer

@Yuki This is a game where a frozen swordfish can be used as a greatsword. I think we're supposed to use a generous interpretation.

...I actually still need Gourmet Vouchers to finish upgrading my Fork + Spatula Dual Blades, too.

Yuki

@RavenDreamer The problem here is that the frozen swordfish is not the norm for Greatswords. For the Insect Glaives, the norm from what I've seen in trailers is not having a blade.

Frank

Oh, hey. Sots 2 is on sale this week.

Frank

@Sterno I'm now jealous.

Sterno

I need a more reliable start time. It would be hard to reproduce exactly

Yuki

@Frank Don't feel bad, I take upwards of 3 minutes, probably more.

Sterno

I also popped a 2 minute cooldown ability, which probably sped it up by 50%

Oh, I also have +25% elite damage gear on, which probably helped

T4 is still too slow to play though

Frank

Hrm. 57 seconds this time.

Sterno

2:11 AM

@Frank same attack pattern?

That's a big difference

Fluttershy

@Yuki I did.

Yuki

Okay, how does buying games through Green Man Gaming work? Because apparently purchases of >$10 are 20% off.

Frank

@Sterno More aggressive. Kinda stood in the clouds and tanked it.

Run #3, with Shenlong's: 58 seconds.

Yuki

I could get DS2 and Child of Light for cheapers, but I'm not sure whether I'd get a Steam code or not.

Sterno

Oh, yeah. If you have to run around and dodge him, that'll throw it off

He doesn't even move my health bar on T2

Yuki

2:13 AM

Apparently, Child of Light is through uPlay (... ew) and Dark Souls II is through Steam.

So... I'd get a uPlay code and a Steam code?
