I did something naughty. Kekeke.
So I have a confession to make.
Congratulations, you made it into the most overdone T3 stratum next to shock. Seriously, you guys have pushed those two so hard they they're no longer hard or interesting. You may as well had set to poison.
And considering how Gremlin actually got new levels put in, that *would* have been a somewhat interesting change of pace.
eh that alone can't affect the gate. But i'm with you on this i'm tired of fiends. They're boring. Lets go to something else please.
Sure, sneak in there while everyone else is busy with missions...
Ah well, I'm half way to full valk anyway. Bring it on.
this forum so needs a thumbs up, like, or thanks button.
anyways thanks for fiends was tired of the crap levels before vana.
Great. Time to equip my Final Flourish, Callahan, Swiftstrike Buckler and Snarbolax set and yawn my way through yet another Fiend stratum..
They were fun when people started doing this initially, but I think it's dragged on for long enough. I'd like to see some other stratums this time around, like Gremlins with its new set of levels or Slime for some jelly-splattering action (one of the reasons Royal Jelly Palace never gets boring, I love killing those things.) I'd much rather run through slimes with a team full of repeatedly dying Tier 3-freshmen, than drag my sorry butt through even more dark-themed levels with only top-end players.
Let me see the (artificial) sun of Aurora Isles, dang it! :|
Of course, it won't matter soon once the vanaduke mission rolls out. We'll just be able to port directly to D24 from the ready room.
Thanks for trying to ruin the game for people with 1-bar connections! It's thanks to people with kind intentions like you that I'm such a huge fan of Spiral Knight's community.
In case you didnt notice hes also at only 1 bar.
Yeah well I doubt that his lag is serious enough for devilite projectiles to hit him after he shields up.
And you would know this how? Maybe he can predict where everything is faster than you.
If I had devilites hitting me when I try to dodge or shield, why would I even bother making a fiend stratum just to torture myself?
I was so looking forward to gremlins especially after the patch. Due to how much I've played poison, shock, and fiend, I now no longer pick up purple minerals unless they are the only ones in the stage. Fiends really aren't even that bad if you have any shadow armor and piercing weapons. I've solo'd D28 Fiend arenas and I'll do it again, but I'd rather do something different once in a while. Wolver lairs and beast clockwork tunnels (with danger rooms) were a breath of fresh air, but now we are back to the typical (and short) fiend stratum. Thanks for nothing.
@Dancinjen - look at the numbers. They directly affected the gate, especially if the rest were dumped in afterwards.
I don't understand if this is meant to be the T3 Elitists' idea of a sick joke or something.
I like how you call him a T3 elitist.
Can I call you a no skilled noob who bought his way to T3?
I admit I'm not the most experienced player out there but when your shield technically doesn't even block anything you can't decide if the player's skilled or not.
The lag between your screen and the server does not justify calling other people names because they made a stratum unsuited for you.
It's not that attacks go through your shield. Its that on the server, the attack has already been completed by the time you shielded. You just can't see it yet due to the lag.
Playing well with one bar indicates skill. Not playing well in such a condition indicates nothing, but crying about it? If it was QQ about how common and overdone fiend floors where, I agree. But this is QQ fiends too hard. Which they can be, but do you really have to resort to calling someone an elitist?
But when people make fiend stratums and brag about it it seems like they're trying to punish the people with severe lag or something.
Metagenic, he isn't trying to punish people with bad lag. If your lag sucks, then don't do the gate, simple as that. Don't call someone out on something completely irrelevant to what they're saying.
Also, Avixi, Nice! I'm looking forward to this ;)
Random trivia.
I can count with one hand, the number of times i have ever seen the latency meter go above one bar.
How very original! Must've fired up quite the amount of dysfunctional neurons in your head to come up with such a brilliant idea; to put up a predictable statem that no longer provides any challenge.
I'm willing to bet lots of players wanted to try the new Tier 3 Gremlins on a gate that matters (not that I care in this case).
Doesn't affect me but it's still a troll move.
There are three problems with a fiend strat 5 in the FSC gate:
1) You have to pay attention when fighting them, and paying attention sucks when you're grinding through an area to get to another area
2) FSC strat 5 is fiends like all the time, and you get tired of it
3) Dark City is ugly
Gremlin gates don't come up that often in T3. I'll play non FSC T3, but generally they aren't that great of gates or are littered with poison or fiend themes which I already get enough of. We had a great Fire theme T3 a few weeks ago, but nothing great since then.
Just wanted to point out that for the near future the current T3 gates are
Fiend/Shock
Fiend/Shock
Beast/Shock
Then finally Gremlin/Fire (next FSC gate which I'm sure will get spammed with dark matter so it is fiend again)
Yay for doing the same thing over and over again.
It's times like this I think OOO should just ditch the mineral system, at least we can do missions to pass the time now.
(and with any luck there'll soon be a FSC mission and then both the Arcade and the wretched rocks that power it will both fade from existence)
what is this?! asking for gate construction nerf? ROFL.
learn to play people, you don't want fiends? want gremlin levels? deposit the right minerals.
What most people don't realize is the loot from fiend sucks too. Has nothing to do with it being difficult for the new players.
My favorite is freeze cause freeze yields blue and green shards which both sell well and craft decent stuff.
Red and purple shards don't sell as well.
If any of the content is actually hard for you then I am envious of your situation cause I miss when this game was hard, now it's becoming very mundane as far as difficulty go.
According to the wiki devs would randomly change strata. Maybe in the future there should be only one gate that auto sells? or have randomly one gate be one thing for every stratum
@Moonarr That's how gremlin grounds will probably work. Or, well, maybe not the whole gate, but like 2-3 stratums will be gremlin themed.
@%$&*&%^% so it's you all along! *Calls hitman*
