I fought some Plagued Vampiric Extra Health guys on my way through Hell.
That was a long fight.
In Hell, about the only thing I can't just stand still and ignore is Arcane
Even Azmo in 4 player Hell, I can just sit in his death splotches and keep whacking him
I could ignore the Plague if it didn't heal the guys faster than I damaged them from the Vampiric.
Ok I'm really leaving this time.

Q: What is the shrine buff range?

SeanHow close must party members be to reap shrine effects? Is it based off of in-game yards or "screen" distance (e.g., must be visible on screen)? I never know if party members are close enough to get shrine effects.

Q: How do I know if I've hit a checkpoint recently?

Nick TIf I need to peel myself away from Diablo III, it's usually convenient to do so at a checkpoint so when I quit and rejoin I'm plopped down right back where I was (or equivalently in a randomly generated area). The Checkpoint! messages though are quickly forgotten unless one cares about them (and...

Q: Is there a button I can press to force movement?

Matthew ScharleySimilar to how I can hold shift to force my character to stand their ground and attack, is there a way to force them to move towards a position rather than attack whatever I happen to click?

Q: What spells can't crit?

Nick TCan channeled spells (Disintegrate, Firebats) crit? What about targeted AoE spells (Blizzard) or "wandering AoE" (Energy Twister)? Is there a good clean way to identify what can and can't critically hit?

Q: Does The Guardian's Path Passive Skill effect Spirit Per Second bonuses on gear and from skills?

Mr. November While dual-wielding, you gain a 15% chance to dodge incoming attacks. While using a two-handed weapon, all Spirit generation is increased by 25%. Does the 25% bonus only apply to Spirit generated from attacks, or does it also increase Spirit per second from gear and mantras by 25%?

@AshleyNunn Rubber duck debugging :D
user15026
@YiJiang rubber duck?
02:00
*quack*
Rubber duck debugging, Rubber Ducking, or the Rubber Duckie Test is an informal term used in software engineering to refer to a method of debugging code. The name is a reference to an apocryphal story in which an unnamed expert programmer would keep a rubber duck by his desk at all times, and debug his code by forcing himself to explain it, line-by-line, to the duck. To use this process, a programmer meticulously explains code to an inanimate object, such as a rubber duck, in the expectation that upon reaching a piece of incorrect code and trying to explain it, the programmer will notice...

@Fluttershy Guess I should have been paying more attention. D3 on the brain. Looks like my chances are slim at this point. We'll see how it shakes down.
@EBongo Lichen/Crystal dragon. It's the only combination.
Music everyone might enjoy of the day: Lisztomania.
@Fluttershy Gratz man, I have been trying ALOT.....
@James I figure this makes up for them screwing me over on the Sakura dragon. =P
But thank you.
@Fluttershy Wait wait, Lichen Then Crystal?? Everything I have read has said Crystal than Lichen??
Hell I even got a sun dragon out of trying to get an emerald :D
02:27
@James I don't think their order matters. Just that it's those two dragons...
@Fluttershy You have been doing lichen then crystal though?
@James I'd do one order on the Epic island, and the other on the cave.
cause I am like over a week of constantly trying crystal and lichen and notta :D
Haha, which one got ya the dragon?
And then I would alternate. so like... if I did C/L in epic, I'd do L/C in the cave, and then do L/C in epic, and C/L in cave, etc.
Sadly, I do not remember which order got me the dragon. x_x Just that it was on the epic breeding.
Meh
Two 14hr dragons
Ah well
Gratz on your emerald.. ya jerk :)
02:30
@James I went through 3-4 14 hour dragons, some 6, some 5, and some 1. It took me ~25 tries.
@Fluttershy I am at I think 35 tries so far???
@James I easily hit 100 with no success on the sakura dragon... so dragonvale can kiss my ass. lol
I know I am over 30 ... but I have used a few gems here and there :/
So have I.
@Fluttershy I actually got those at the normal breeding cave, not the island.

Q: Why can't I feed or breed animals in Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition?

aleighaI have wheat in my hand even if they look directly at the animals they still won't follow me. Also, there is no button at the bottom that says feed. Why? I play on the Xbox360.

02:59
Hmmm... time to test this.
I've done the math and I'm pretty sure I'm only taking about 7.8% melee damage against level 60 mobs on Inferno. Which is frightening, considering that even some white mobs can sometimes hit for 4-5k

@StrixVaria Act 2 Inferno is tough. I went from chewing through everything on the way to the Butcher without a problem and downing the butcher in under 2 minutes.

@Pubby I almost got half-way to a rune once.
Cool, which dungeon branch were you on?

I wasn't. I was about to start branches though. I cleared out most of the Lair (except the last level) and got crazy deep in the main dungeon.
"crazy deep" being around level 17-18.
Then I found an enemy I never saw before and underestimated it.
Like the first time I found a hydra!
@Pubby My record is one rune
the one in the, uh, multi-floor swamp thing?
I think that's the decaying one
then I met an unique with crazy high resistances that magic missiled me to death

@Kappei What's the surprise?
@Sterno L.A. Noire
@Sterno lol. I'm having a hard enough time with Hell Act 1. I had to pimp myself out with Vitality in order to survive. I have something like 17,000 life now
@spugsley That's not even that high for Hell :/
13:35
@StrixVaria I know! It was much lower before. Waaaay too low
It's taking a few playthroughs to figure out what stats are important and when.
I just unlocked Hell with my Monk and have 18k life, 55% dr from armor, and like 85 resist all.
I think that should be enough to start Hell...
@StrixVaria plus, Monks are awesome.
I was totally planning on playing a Dodge Monk but then I started going weapon+shield and my survivability is way up.
I'm at the point where any gear upgrades are at least half a mil. Sadness

@GnomeSlice because they are like, "His wife is that cool lady who did those Isaac LPs. We should listen to him by default."

@spugsley Speaking of which, I love cursing as much as the next guy, I should probably watch those.
@GnomeSlice I'm a little less curse-y in those. I was nervous, having never recorded

Speaking of recording we need more people willing to record.
It occured to me that I'm in almost all of our videos.
@RonanForman I can't reliably get time uninterrupted by my parents to play anything every weekend, and you won't let me record unless I use my mic anyway.
@GnomeSlice I never said you can't I just don't see the point.

@RonanForman If I win a graphics card, I will buy the rest of a new computer, and contribute to recording :-)
@fredley Yay-ness!
@GnomeSlice Because everyone here has already played binding of isaac and agrees, that is to say he just suggested a popular one. But you Gnome? Oh man, you're far too hardcore for that. You only suggest/play games no one else has even heard of.
@RonanForman Well I'll see anyway. It's something that's on my to-buy list, and winning the graphics card would tip the balance in favour of sooner.

Speaking of which... Gah, is there no way to buy the soundtrack for that game without buying the entire game again in the Voskhod Edition?
@badp Of...?
15:03
Torchlight
hm, this is more of a conundrum than usual
@badp given your pet a 'Heal all' spell or a 'summon zombies/summon skeletal archers' spell yet?
@GnomeSlice No, she's got silence 1 and freeze 4
@badp Is that the one that shoots out a few ice bolts in a spread?
I hardly ever drop under 50% health anyway
I regain 20 health and 9 mana per regular hit
@GnomeSlice yes
so, 70 armor or overpowered pet?
Because if it is, it's fairly useless with a pet, they cast so infrequently. The fireball and freeze spells are only decent if you use them yourself, and repeatedly. Get him a summon skill, trust me.
@badp Wow, 80% decrease in travel time?
15:09
with pet mastery 3 it takes her 3 seconds to traverse 30 levels
@badp Since you're not a summoner Alchemist, take the Epic Talon Greaves. But save the other ones in your permachest, if you ever decide to do an Alchemist character.
@badp I don't think time is dependent on level, but I could be wrong.
@GnomeSlice it certainly is
@badp I've never noticed that, to be honest, my pet travel always seemed to take the same amount of time. Doesn't it just run back to the nearest portal anyway?
@badp also, do you know if 'faster cast speed' bonuses work on pets?
I do not, I'd think it does

Q: What's the wizard's main strength (or role)?

AntoWhile there is no strong "role" for classes in Diablo 3, you can't deny that each of them is especially good at something. The barbarian can receive a lot of damage (tank), the demon hunter can perform long range attacks (archer) and the fetish summons lots of minions (necro). Wizards and mon...

Q: Noncombat PvP career in EVE Online

deathAprilI'm thinking about returning to EVE, but i don't know if there is a career for me - last time i did a few courier contracts in lowsec with my Cheetah and some exploration missions - i don't find shooting at ships or asteroids that much fun. I wonder if being a one-character freelance spy would b...

Q: Farming Infernal Dye?

MeliniI noticed that the infernal dye is really expensive in the auction house. I haven't found any so far in act 1 inferno... where can I find them and is there a specific location/trader/boss I can farm/look for them? Are they bound to a specific act/event in Inferno perhaps?

Q: Why cant I find gems in the auction house?

Ian HullLast week I was able to buy gems in the auction house. I bought a few flawless square gems. But now when I search for more nothing comes up, no matter what gem I search for. Is that just because no one is selling them, or is there something wrong with the auction house?

15:13
@Lazers Oh come on... do we really have 32 questions tagged with ...
@badp Are you sure though? I mean, take your freeze spell for example, your pet only casts it like every 10 seconds or so, and it does so even if there are no enemies around, correct?
@GnomeSlice no, it doesn't vomit freeze randomly
@badp ...Mine always did. Maybe it's just the healing and summon spells that do that.
Also, shouldn't just be and ?
=[
Well fuck you, system.

Q: Is there any software to automatically change or save the resolutions for my 22" and 19" monitors when playing the same game?

SauliusEverytime I switch to primary monitor which is 22" then I must select resolution to 1920x1080 again when first starting the same game on 19" secondary monitor with 1280x1024 resolution. Is there any software (or can I do it with DisplayFusion multi-monitor program) to automatically change or sav...

@badp actually, now that I think about it, the pet probably adheres to the natural cooldown of the spells you give it.
anybody in here with significant experience gaming on an android phone? trying to figure out how much the edition of the OS matters.
15:26
@agent86 With respect to gaming? Very little, in my experience.
@IanPugsley are there other considerations with respect to version?
my current vendor is virgin mobile USA, and they typically lock their phones down to a great extent... I probably won't be able to update after I buy
@agent86 Version has a lot more of an impact on the feature set, stability, and performance of your phone.
@agent86 It should be relatively to root it and install whatever's stable for your phone from the modding community, if that's what you're really after.
But if you asking if you should aim with a phone with ICS (4.0) vs. Gingerbread (2.3), the difference isn't significant with respect to gaming.
@badp do 'faster cast speed' bonuses affect spells with cooldown? I always just assumed they only affected how fast you could cast repeatable spells.
I'd recommend a 4.0 because most of those phones are newer and nicer and because 4.0 is neat (and because phones still on Gingerbread will either take a while or may never make it to ICS), but not because of anything related to gaming.

Q: Do 'Faster Cast Speed' Equip Bonuses Affect Your Pet?

GnomeSliceIt's been a while since I played Torchlight, but I seem to recall that my pet would sort of randomly cast the 'Heal All' skill, and the 'Summon Skeletal Archers' skill that I'd given him. It seemed like every twenty seconds or whatever, he'd cast one of them again, so this leads me to believe th...

Wouldn't that be a dupe of that?
@IanPugsley random question: go see if we have eggs and butter in the fridge.
@GnomeSlice so uh you've already asked your question!
have an upvote but I don't have the answer
@badp Well, I asked about pets.
@IanPugsley hmm. okay. right now I've got the lowest end of what could reasonably be considered a "smart phone" that runs something java-based that is not at all android.
@spugsley four eggs and two sticks of butter
15:30
I added a bit at the end saying I'm unsure of whether or not if affects timed cooldown of skills the player uses too.
@IanPugsley nice!
that's the perfect amount :)
@agent86 be prepared for a costly data plan ($20-30) if you plan to get a smartphone
the options on the table are the LG optimus elite and the htc evo v
@IanPugsley on VM, it's all inclusive $35/mo
@agent86 HTC makes fantastic phones, in my experience with them.
"unlimited" data for what that's worth.
@GnomeSlice yeah, that's the one with android ICS, but it's twice the price.
15:32
Whoosh, it's also a lot more expe - yeah, that.
I should switch back to my HTC Desire.
@agent86 How long do you plan on keeping it though? =]
@agent86 I'm curious: why are you advocating licking your waitress?
@agent86 the Evo V 4G was originally called the Evo 3D - there's a good review here
@IanPugsley Got one for 15 euros now.
@GnomeSlice this phone I bought about 2 years ago. I don't really know what a good lifetime is for a phone is though. I'd just like to get in on some of this sweet, sweet mobile gaming / android functionality
15:34
@agent86 ...noooo - I'm still confused why you're advocating for the licking of waitresses in particular.
omg today is the worst. We have no more patients scheduled and I'm still fucking stuck here until 1 arghhhhhhhhhhh
@RavenDreamer ah, it's a comedy club cliche. when your set is over, you say something along the lines of "thank you, you've been a great audience, I'll be here all week, tip your waitress" or something similar.
@IanPugsley so do you think it's probably worth the extra expense?
@agent86 I haven't been able to find a review of the Optimus
well-written review, anyway
Okay. The ultimate test:
Can my laptop play Diablo 3?
@agent86 also it looks like the Evo isn't going to be available until 5/31 - I assume you're okay with waiting?

Q: Diablo 3 Difficulty

MelI am not particularly excited by the difficulty levels in Diablo 3. My question is, can I play normal repeatedly and retain my levelling status etc. That way I will get better but the enemies wont and I will feel as if the levelling has had some benefit? Any weapon upgrades I need I will buy ...

First problem: Graphics Drivers are outdated. Haha :(
@agent86 here is a decent Optimus review
the question is whether or not the Evo is $150 better, and I think that's something that depends on how much you value that $150 over the course of how long you'll be using your phone
I'd probably go for the Evo, personally - it's a much newer phone, and historically HTC phones are fairly good quality

HTCs have a good rep over here
and good afternoon all
I climbed a tree today
@agent86 Check out a game called 'Arel Wars' if that's what you're really after, lol.
@FAE What was at the top?

@RavenDreamer I couldn't get that far, the branches weren't close enough
I did get my pants all green though >_>
Better than getting... nevermind.

@RavenDreamer ...........................................
I'm just going to assume you meant 'getting killed'.
So how 'bout that Trans Siberian Orchestra, eh?

@FAE Yay for tree climbing :D
