Those Venatori mines... Well, I was always not good at playing jumping frog game. Just run through them and trigger them all. You will be safe while they explode behind you. !!! GASP!

While in a pug, I blackscreened for quite some time and returned to this... no pug, no map, but very cool. I condensed it, because it went on... Beautiful place for midnight meditation. After 2:35, it somehow reminds me of figure skating performances with clair de lune.

Sometimes you need to just get on a boat... Sounds like a 80's B movie title.... Quicktimes at Golden... I miss all those times spending outside of FC waiting for someone to get back especially every time I am running in other games and kept hitting the "Shift" key for no reason at all. Every "Shift" I am thinking.. stop doing that.. I am not in DAIMP anymore!

Recent happenings: Nothing loot-wise in about 700-800k gold spent, but all good.
Was invited by a LB to early morning games, and I tossed an invite to a friend to make 4. We all get in party chat to find that one person is drunk and a little belligerent, the other is toking up like cheech and chong. Conversations became very rude and whatnot, so I politely hopped out and messaged them to let em know I'll come back when things sober up a bit. Proceeded to run some easy perilous matches and just had to reflect on that. Funny how your friends list can contain certain people that would never play with others on your list, like complete opposite personalities. I try and see the best in every person until they prove otherwise. I also understand an occasional drinking binge turned into a bad decision to speak publicly to others, lack of self control can happen, but realize I have the right not to be subjected to such crap.
Another noteworthy happening: This morning I think everyone just stayed in bed in shock at the election results, thus I found one lobby in 1.5 hours that another living soul was playing the same game as myself. I still enjoyed rockin it solo with my katari, though his banter seems a little awkward with no one else around.

I'm not surprised by the result at all. By laws of nature it's time for a Republican candidate to be in office after 8 years of Democratic presidency. Though I do have a coworker taking PTO this morning claiming he now seeks possibilities to move to another country. but I digressed...

So today I decided to try something brand new. I got out my old Xbox 360 controller and connected it to my PC and played multiplayer for the first time ever without a keyboard and mouse. What a change! The game felt so new in a few ways believe it or not. What I liked about the controller: The automatic camera angles is a huge step up. The HUD on the side is nice instead of clogging up the bottom of the screen. It's easier to grab the health font while running without stopping because you just press A when you are close instead of having to strategically aim the camera while running with the mouse. What I don't like with the controller: Locking on to an enemy does a weird close-up zoom. Not sure if you can disable it or not. Aiming things like barrier, fire mine, and immolate is so slow. How do you guys hit anything? Absolutely hate the clicking of the control stick to sprint. Always hated clicking the control stick for anything. I'm guessing you can change it but not sure to what would make sense. Not a fan of the potion menu. I like having all potions available at once with the keyboard HUD. Don't like the jump button being the same thing as the interact button. Like I said, playing with the controller made this game feel new again. That being said, I think I am sticking with my keyboard and mouse

So that was it! Ever since I started playing, I was wondering how did the other people grab the font so smoothly.

Aiming things like barrier, fire mine, and immolate is so slow. How do you guys hit anything? This is why I'm usually in melee range when I use spells that don't automatically start on the enemy you're aiming at. Mages have a lot more potential with keyboard and mouse but I can't stand playing this game without a controller. Tried a few times to switch to kb&m but just can't do it. Day 1 habits die hard. Absolutely hate the clicking of the control stick to sprint. Always hated clicking the control stick for anything. I'm guessing you can change it but not sure to what would make sense. Don't like the jump button being the same thing as the interact button. Agreed on both points. Mostly the jumping. Someone opens a door or hits the font just before you and you jump on the spot like a moron.

Whenever someone jumps, oh is it no-font lobby? Oh bad timing to open door? Oh did I make a mistake?

Two games I can remember among some not-so-recent pugs. A few weeks ago I decided to try Caldyrvan's Blessed Purger Templar Build so I brought my level 12 ham-wielding Belinda into a perilous game. Not long after the game started a level 16 AW who had 4 bars of health wearing pace-belt joined along with an assassin and a high level Avvar. Judging by the status of said AW I knew there was no chance for me to try out the build. I activated Blessed Blades at the sight of enemies, and the next second I know, they were all melt by chain lightning before I could even reach them. The Avvar was annihilating mobs pretty fast too so I stayed behind to collect missed pots, open ignored doors and revive the fallen assassin when needed...We finished the game in less than 10 minutes, but I immediately left out of frustration...Well maybe I chose the wrong difficulty as the testing platform. The other pug I joined GIP was with a Saarebas, a duelist and a Templar in perilous too. Looking at the damage they took, I could tell they were slightly under promoted for the difficulty they were challenging but they did well by playing as a team: Saarebas casting rings and barriers, Templar using Horn of Valor to buff everyone, duelist hanging around close to Saarebas to take advantage of rings etc. I played a level 20 assassin with low level daggers so I was not OP myself either. We moved as a whole group through the entire game, which was quite a rare scene in pugs. Templar and Sarrebas's health flashed red a few times on wave 5, but eventually no one died even once by looking after each other. It took about 20 minutes to win, but somehow it felt much more enjoyable than a sub 10 minutes speed run.

I've seen quite a lot of new players. Not bad for a game no longer supported But somehow there's need for understanding game mechanics per map, like, I'm not going to rez you in the middle of Zone 5 on FC NM while playing my archer against Vents with one player already in the fade. I'd rather let you go to the fade than lose the match. I hope that wasn't harsh, but I don't like it when they spam "here, here, here" It's like hearing a wounded animal Sorry just had to vent and get that off my chest

It is a bad idea to revive teammates in the middle of battlefield even when you are in no danger yourself. I remember in one game an archer was dead near an Earthshaker with bolters sneaking around. I was a lego then who really couldn't be killed. I moved to a corner out of the mobs' line of sight and pressed F4 several times to let him know it's safer to crawl here for reviving. But the archer refused to move instead just spammed "Come here" right by the Earthshaker. Finally I gave up and revived him where he was only to get him killed a second later by...well the earthshaking...It was a frustrating experience for both of us I think. Maybe caldyrvan could add something to The advice thread that when waiting for reviving, try to crawl to somewhere with cover/out of line of sights so both you and your teammates who rez you will be safe? BTW The Archer in ArcherKipling's new avatar looks like a boring human. Where is the cat?

What is harder, or better, more irritating? Protecting Inquisition NPC guy in one zone or under-promoted pug in four games? I like protecting pugs. I play a lot of support mages these days just for this reason. Some of the new players are actually quite skillful yet they're squishy only because they haven't promoted as much as the veteran players have. If you give them a bit barrier and buffs here and there, they can not only survive but also do well in killing things(provided they do have some high level weapons). If they understand what you are trying to do, they'll also keep close to take advantage of the buffs. For those who insist on charging ahead then die alone, I usually just leave them be. Inquisition NPC guy, on the other hand, are all invariant fools beyond saving. A sad fact I've finally come to terms with.

Jumped into a PUBLIC Nightmare FC match with the #2 Leaderboarder and some random called Pyro..something (only the two of them)
The reason I don't remember his name?
I loaded in as an Avvar 13, killed 2 mobs and was kicked from the game.
Unpleasant.

The NPCs with the sword and hatchet are goners, the hatchet's the worst (it's a hatchet, not an axe). The Archer NPC has a better chance than most. The old man or the Orlesian is yet another condition that changes their behavior. The old man is more aggressive it seems. The Orlesian, well... ... qui s'en soucie?
