Vaal Earthquake is your clear skill - you use it and then run, everything should die at your run speed. Note: you cannot trigger Adrenaline buff again until your previous one runs out. You need to do this once every 20 seconds. This will get you to over 50% hp, which Blood Rage will quickly drain to 50% and trigger Adrenaline.

Put Molten Shell in your left click hotkey, so it's automatically cast whenever it's off cooldown. Clears at an okay speed through Vaal Earthquake. This build can get to over 18m damage per single Earthquake if all stars align. I finished all content with it, including The Feared, except Ubers (although I haven't even tried killing any Ubers with it, as I just kinda assume this build is not mobile enough for them).

The last option is obviously the worst as we lose either a chunk of damage or a bit of life. suck it up and drop 3 points somewhere, allocating them into the new mana mastery - 12% mana reservation efficiency. get a Lab enchant (for Pride, Determination or Petrified Blood) To make up for lost efficiency, we need to either: Also, the Molten Shell nerf (which probably hit 80% of the builds in current PoE, lol).

![]() ![]() Something else that surprised me when I started Tales from the Borderlands is how often you interact with the game. I never understood the criticism of the “they will remember that” messages in the top corner of the screen, especially in regards to Tales. The Telltale devs get awesome mileage out of the mechanic, by constantly changing up how they use it for the sake of jokes, and, more sparingly, impactful emotional moments. Of course, you as a player are part of shaping that arc, and the game feels satisfying and reactive every step of the way. As their goals slowly shift as the series go on, we can see who they are changing, in real-time, as they react to and deal with the circumstances that are placed in front of them. Right off the bat, we know exactly who the characters are and what they’re after. They don’t waste a second of my time, let alone hours at a time like another game I can think of. One particularly clever story technique they used a few times was having the characters lay out their plan, and then use that to narrate them actually carrying out those parts of the plan, which is just efficient writing in my opinion. Otherwise, the rest of the episodes are jam-packed with plans, obstacles, and random happenstances that send the group reeling, and then we have a blast seeing how they manage to scrape by and eventually come out on top. That sense of momentum is maintained throughout the entire rest of the series, except for maybe the last half of the final episode, which I can excuse because it makes way for the most video game-y section of Tales - the final boss fight. It just sets the tone for the entire series, the song is dripping with style and swag, and it really hammers home the feeling that there’s a whole adventure ahead of you. Then there’s the musical opening, and while all of them are particularly great (shout out to the slo-mo rocket launch sequence from episode 4 - the entirety of the penultimate episode is nothing short of excellent, honestly), but episode 1’s heavy beat and funky synth banger “Busy Earnin'” by Jungle is will be one of those gaming moments I remember for the rest of my life. There are still bits from this game that I quote to this day, and don’t even get me started on the finger guns fight in Episode 4. Compared to New Tales‘ slow, clunky exposition dumps, the original Tales’ sharp, focused writing is all the more noticeable. The dialogue is smart and snappy, and perfectly paced while also giving us exposition at the same time. The story gets rolling right away, and it never really slows down after that. It opens with this mystery of who kidnapped Rhys, one of the player characters, and after a few quips, he launches into a narration of how he got to where he is in the first place. But the conclusion is the same, and it seems to be unanimous: Tales from the Borderlands is still one of the best stories ever told in a game. New Tales from the Borderlands was so bad, it actually made more than one of us return to the original to make sure we hadn’t created some kind of false, reverent memory as a coping mechanism. Turns out Alice Bell over at Rock Paper Shotgun and I think alike, because she had the exact same idea. Before I even finished the first episode of New Tales, I knew I had to go back and see if the original held up in the way that I thought it did. The whole time I was playing, I couldn’t stop thinking about how awesome I thought the first game was, to the point that it is one of my favorite games of all time. ![]() Or maybe even better…Ī couple of weeks ago, I had the displeasure of reviewing Gearbox’s New Tales from the Borderlands. I try to give every game I review the benefit of the doubt, but this game just kept letting me down again and again and again, and in the end it turned out to be a pretty miserable experience - and I gave it a 3/10. Just go play it, because that’s basically the conclusion of this article, anyway.

I am combat orientated in x series and have allways used a mod to setup the empire in 2-3 easy steps so i can focus my time to 90% playing how i like in fighters upto M6 and i have thousands of hours between the modded non steam version and the steam vanilla version.

Some streamers have known this for a while, like Shawn Gilhuly, a Twitch partner with more than 44,000 followers. “They are starting to consider multi-streaming and alternative platform options, and they're starting to realize that this old story they've been told about discovery on Twitch is not really true.” “I think for smaller broadcasters and medium-sized broadcasters, things have changed in the last two months,” Nash says. You’ll never reach the hallowed lands of Twitch partnership (and with that, the promise of better tools and a potentially stable income), without knowing this: You grow your Twitch audience on platforms other than Twitch. Many participants engage in a ten-thousand-hours culture that is basically Sisyphean. Unlike gaming, where grinding, no matter how laborious, should lead to progress, grinding on Twitch does not bring equivalent reward. Many streamers worked out a long time ago that streaming alone-the actual day-to-day of creating content on the service-is simply not enough to attract a following. (It’s worth noting that Twitch is owned by Amazon, which runs AWS, which hosts Twitch blaming hosting costs has left streamers perplexed.) Removal of the hosting feature feels like Twitch making the summit harder to ascend the reduced revenue split is just another reason not to try. The logic here is populist, but it’s missing the redistribution: Twitch has acknowledged that some streamers were doing better than others now begins the era where everyone gets the same bad deal, justified in part because Twitch costs a lot to run. ![]() Add to that Twitch president Dan Clancy’s announcement last month that the company would start giving streamers a lower revenue split in 2023 and you have a lot of creators wondering if success on Twitch is even worth it-or possible at all. This week, Twitch will provoke more frustration when it removes “hosting,” a feature that lets streamers embed another channel’s live broadcast on their own page. This state of affairs has sapped many streamers of good will. Of the 6 million people who create content on the platform, more than 90 percent stream to fewer than six viewers 25 percent of the top 10,000 highest-paid streamers make less than minimum wage. Smaller streamers burn out too, anonymously: only an extraordinary few earn enough to make a living. Even Pokimane, one of the site’s famous faces, has had to take extended time off. Streamers toil for the approval of audience and algorithm. Burnout is inseparable from the platform’s identity. You may even become a celebrity, get a cameo in Free Guy. Grind hard, the maxim goes, and you'll accrue enough followers to make "Twitch streamer" your full-time job. For video game streamers, Twitch's appeal looms large. ![]() ![]() ![]() Location: Manoj Sharma Shrimp Farm, Indiaīackground: High density commercial aquaculture farming of Tiger Prawn, pacific white prawn (Vannamei), Tilapia or Basa Shrimp and/or fish fecal matter, as well as leftover feed, pollutes the water in Aquaculture ponds, contributing to high nitrate and organic waste.
