First for Carter.

>>182285661
It sucks. Funcom killed this game.

>>182286023
Best girl.

>>182287180
Definitely.
At this point I'm wondering if the game won't close before its Steam release...

>>182287180
More like people were too retarded for the first one and killed it, then Funcom tried to appeals them with a washed-up, money-hungry version and killed himself afterward.

Carter is super cute.

Assuming they actually continue the story, what location do you want to head into?

Most bets are in the Congo but I wouldnt mind a detour into the Hive prison.

Even vg threads can't stay up long enough before they die.
I wonder how many accounts are actually active but it must be low, like Battlestillborn open weekend low.

aurum is overrated, unless you desperately need more bank space or want to fuse purples NOW just farm a few days, sell some stuff and list exchanges to have some for the future.

>>182307079
Casuals want their loot now.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SecretWorldLegends/comments/6mexpz/devs_did_you_intend_for_the_end_game_to_be_a/dk18h86/

So, what will Reddit complain about next, Funcom changes it, and Reddit will complain about afterwards?

>>182312830
Every weapon being effective
Reduce MoF gain per day
Reduce Talisman bonuses
Every clothing can only be bought using Third Age Fragments, 20k each

>>182313196
>Reduce MoF gain per day
Well, there was that one guy complaining how HE doesn't have enough freetime to do every single daily challenge, so they should be weekly instead.

i need more inventory slots, jesus christ
7 for unwielded weapons, 14 for typed talismans you aren't using, and then extras when any given talisman is at 20 and you need something else to throw fodder at

>>182313318
45 is max you can get with marks and takes 2-3 days. dump the maxed shit in the bank or get a private cabal and dump the unbound shit there to multi-fuse later.

>>182313306
he wasn't really wrong with that, having a weekly amount of challenges would be a godsend.

>>182314120
>having a weekly amount of challenges would be a godsend.
And your reward is 10 MoF

So, two threads ago we had people posting left and right, what happened?

>>182318025

Same thing that happened to the old TSW generals, fatigue and loss of interest I imagine.

Unless we form a cabal and start doing lair/elite runs there's really nothing for us to do except come here and complain.

>>182314229
why would it? the basic idea is good, but that's where it ended. for funcom it makes no difference if I I farm 10k a day or 70k on the weekend, weekly balance is still the same.

if anything it can be argued having to grind daily will burn people out faster, if they grind on the weekend they won't always complete it, which means they're marks short without burnout, prime candidates to spend some money on aurum.

you catch more flies with honey. and even retarded casuals have a breaking point (even if that gets worse every year).

>>182318936
a few of us are probably in private cabals to have more storage space. we really should get a steam group or discord going just in case.

>>182319457
What will most likely happen is that weekly amount of challenges will be implemented, but the amount of MoF you get per week is reduced. To an absurdly low amount. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

>>182319581
makes no sense and is waaaaay to obvious. people are already getting retarded about some fake math how much it takes to get to legendary, if funcom blatantly nerfs weekly marks you can bet reddit will be full of drama about it.

funcom might be understaffed and stupid, but they're not that stupid. especially when they can just mess with the exchange behind the scenes or "rebalance" some other numbers so you have to spend more marks here and there instead of flat-out nerfing gain.

It's fine if you have a new-ish GPU. I haven't suffered crashes at least for now but who knows. I don't see a reason not to enable it if your computer isn't from 2012 but it definitely was unstable on older machines at least.
I think the tesselation and SSAO are really nice.

>game crashes when you close it

>>182328506

Im a patron as well so I can toss it together, if you make one post it here I'll join. Not really sure if I'm lair-ready yet but most of my gear is blue, just gotta sort out a few talismans, I'll be tanking as well.

>>182333393
Lairs are tuned for mid-level purp gear afaik

>>182318936
The vidya chat channel seems dead. Would a cabal be any different?

>>182334081
No.
Running lairs/elite/NMs would be enough, cabals are borderline useless.

>>182333853

Weapons are purple, 4 of my gear pieces are purple. Still looks like a bit of a wait though.

>>182329837
I actually use DX11 client and it's pretty stable for me. I had like.... 5 crashes since launch and none for the last week.

>>182334081
Funcom didn't include raids or non-Shambala PvP yet, so there isn't any functional reason for cabals beyond extra storage.

It was fun back in TSW when you could organize an impromptu cabal group and dominate El Dorado for a while.

rumour has it a lot of the crashes are due to the shit browser engine they included in the game. haven't checked into it myself or if you could replace it with a newer version to fix some of it.

that they put even more shit into a simple HTML window because they couldn't/didn't want to make a proper UI version doesn't help -
daily login is just a html page, pretty sure cache/chest window is as well.

or could be the shit flash UI in general. they could've been smart and gone with an open solution and let community fix their shit, but no....

>>182336423
>not as bad as guild wars 2
I can scarcely think anything doing combat coherency worse than GW2.
You have no idea what's going on because of the overdesigned effects and stupid aoe circles all over the place.

G-Guys. I think she wants some.

I didn't think I could love Richard Sonnac any more than I already did, and then he just started reciting Ozymandias to me and beautifully tied it into lore by giving it a particular meaning for the Templars.

How is he so much better than the other factions? How?

Geary is just as great. The flavour of Templars and Illuminati are just completely different.

To be fair the only person that could jerk themselves off over doing a better job IS the society that has been in business since almost as long as the sentinels doing its job. It's still not right, but it's at least not completely off the mark and more likely something he'd pick up from how they compare to the other guys.

And its not like the Templar wouldnt totally bind their members like sentinels if it worked.

Energy below and around i300-350 item power and assuming you use a build NOT based around a main 5 energy as primary source of damage. You have to use a good rotation.

Really? I thought someone said you should go double healing taken as a tank.

>>182385173
That's healers job

>>182385173
No, because warding gives a kinda negligible protection.
And for the healing, 3% is garbage really. Also, you can only have the effect of the weapon you are wielding, so .. 3%.

Best main for tank is energy so you can have it at the ready more often and proc whatever you use.

Best secondary for tank imho, alacrity.
