tbh,Fire mine is a l2p issue for me.

On the other hand I really enjoy playing AW and CL,SF,FC and PotA is my favourite build.

If you enjoy AW, you would enjoy storm pact Keeper too. Static Cage + Chain lightning wins every time compared to Chain Lightning alone...

Just self barrier and leave everyone who would run away from you to rot inside the fade.

I'm not saying I don't know how to use FM..I just don't like it that much. Never have been a fan of those mines (Fire or Ice). 

I DO! Oh wait, I forgot we are in MP here and the devs just won't give us flaming/chilling array.

Immolate starts balanced in routine and gets progressively worse as enemy HP scales up. Burning dots don't stack, so if you have firewall up on an enemy you won't be getting the immolate dot. By perilous, immolate is trash, and by NM it barely tickles the enemy. HB laughs at your Immolate and bonks you in the face dead for casting the trash skill.

 

The only time immolate isn't trash is when you can do 5k+ per cast with it. That'll one shot most enemies in Perilous and two shot smaller enemies in NM. FM guarantees one shotting enemies without the Fire Pact Belt and benefits WAY more from CF than Immolate does.

 

While I want more FM's at once, you only have one immolate at once too (and it does less of everything). If enemies aren't jumping you, then you're doing your job killing them at a distance. If they are, which they will, FM takes activates, blows up your enemy and you'll be casting another almost immediately.

LOL I was talking about NM. I came to my conclusion that Immolate CAN nearly 1 shot weak mobs (ghosts and footsoldier as I mentioned above) when I was soloing while waiting for friends to join. Yes I only have 80 willpower and No I don't have a staff that has the damage of a 2-hander.

 

It's not entirely useless, that's all I'm saying. And yes I'm a spoiled child who can't use Fire Mine without that flaming array upgrade.

LOL I have a lot of benchmarks and testing data. You thinking that Perilous is the only one just shows how simplified and narrow your thinking is.

 

K

 

I don't have a benchmark for Perilous.  The only time I play Perilous is when I am level one and pugging.  I don't need a benchmark for a difficulty I don't play very often, and that I can just walk through.

 

I just figured that since you were playing with another person with high stats, you would, I don't know, play a difficulty that wasn't stupidly easy for you both.

 

I could play a level 1 Virtuoso on Perilous with people who are using level 19 classes that require close range combat to do damage.  Theses people could have just as many or more stats than me, and they could be very good with their class, but it wouldn't matter because a Virtuoso with the Inferno Pact Belt can one-shot just about anything on Perilous.  None of that has any bearing on higher difficulties or the other players skill.

 

Your implication that Bruh is bad or ineffective as his Reaver because you can one-shot things before he can get close to them is incredibly disingenuous.  I shouldn't be surprised though; that's par for the course for you.

I remember this one argument where I claimed that video games and the entertainment derived therein are subjective and therefore can be interpreted by the consumer in any real fashion.

Yeah, that went over really well. Since people still consider all of my builds to be "hipster" because of that, despite that both not being true and people apparently not understanding the term "hipster".

Fortunately, that's been relegated to BSN only.

What it went over was their heads. Plenty of examples of concrete thinking (this build works for me, therefore it's the One True Build) around here.

Doesn't even bother me to be honest. I know what I can and can't do with each character. I'm fine with some critiques but I just mostly ignore stuff like that there. :P

I want that upgrade too... I just don't play SP because its too easy.

 

 

I just figured that since you were playing with another person with high stats, you would, I don't know, play a difficulty that wasn't stupidly easy for you both.

 

He joined mid game while I was carrying some friends for some quick gold and weekend challenges. It was the weekend grind, and I just thought it was funny he chose reaver. So of course I'll remind him about that every chance I get-- because it is more fun that way. He smartly chose Lego and whatever he liked afterward.

 

Grinds are all about reward/time, and Perilous has the best gold reward/time & challenge completion / time for lightly promoted/geared teammates due to everything being one shot-two at a distance while consistently whizzing by everything. Reaver takes too long/. NM one-two shots the friends I was carrying, of which bruh was the fourth player joining mid-game.

So no, my games aren't about satisfying your ego, but the entertainment of my players. When teams rotate, the difficulty/maps get adjusted to the team. So when it was just the vets left, the map settings got bumped accordingly.

 

Your implication that Bruh is bad or ineffective as his Reaver because you can one-shot things before he can get close to them is incredibly disingenuous.

 

Have I not been incredibly clear that I say Bruh is bad on all classes for all the reasons? Or is that too much for your consistently narrow mind to handle? That's half the fun of posting here. Hint: He can take the ribbing.

I might as well two shot those with my staff in NM (they all die to firestorm and wall regardless of immolate). Show me a picture of you doing one shot immolate vs a footsoldier in NM. Again, unless its doing around 5k damage (which I doubt), it isn't terribly useful when enemies average 10-16k health, with some being quite a bit more.

Haha okay. Can someone tell me how to record my gameplay?

I may consider making a 'scrub in action' video since Drasca asked so nicely :)

Or if someone could tell me how to take a screenshot while in game :)

What are,console peasant?/j

You can use some of the free solutions like Fraps or Afterburner.Heard that W10 have built in option to record games,too.

I am using Action,because it is very light on PC while recording.

raptr works well for recording games and doesn't hog to many resources whilst its doing it, fraps is nasty because it limits the frame rate you play at right down to 30 which is fine if your playing nm or hb and hosting but absolutely disastrous above routine if your not the host /

I use OBS :P

 

I recommend OBS to anyone wanting to record. Specifically the Beta variant since the main release seems to have less options.

 

It takes a bit to learn it, but it's completely free, can do anything that paid recording programmes do, and is not too heavy on system resources if you have a nVidia card because it can use the NVENC codec (which uses the GPU instead of the CPU for recording). That last bit makes it's performance impact on par with ShadowPlay.

 

Obviously, if you own the paid license of XSplit, there's not much reason to abandon it, since OBS does about the same thing but XSplit is much more user friendly.

 

ShadowPlay is fine for basic recording, but it really comes up short for more advanced options such as overlays and chroma-key (if you are wanting that), or even manually adjusting the output resolution/bitrate/sampling of your video. What I mean by the output is that when I was using a 16:10 aspect ratio monitor before, ShadowPlay would screw things up horribly if I tried to set the output as 16:9 (the standard for HD format). OBS, on the other hand, would let me contort the display to fit 16:9 regardless of the source.

 

Sorry, just lessons I've learned in doing YouTube.

Yes, what he said. I use it for everything video. And NCH software, more specifically VideoPad, for my video editing. I paid for the full version of VideoPad. Super easy to use and makes excellent quality videos.

With video editing, I usually use Premiere Pro because I'm familiar with it, but I honestly sometimes will still use Windows Live Movie Maker because my computer currently can only handle Premiere to a certain degree lol.

 

Fortunately, the computer looks to be changing soon, so that's handy.  :D

Yeah NCH takes a large toll when converting a video from .flv it is the worst part of it

Why are you converting from FLV? You do know that OBS can record directly into H.264 MP4, right?
