Been putting in more games and arguably had my best Kindred game recently.
Made sure to get marks and gank when opportunities arose, still could’ve done better but I think it was my best performance yet.
But I was a little bummed out when at the end of the game after having gone 7/2/6 I had 7k dmg. Which was like 200 more than my support 💀.
It was a 23m game and I ended it with 8 marks if that helps
TLDR: is it worth to die for a mark?
Recently got filled jungle and decided to try out Kindred, she seemed fun and I was doing decent early and even managed to secure scuttle mark.
But to make a long story short, I had 1 failed gank and another death to an invade and decided I should just play safe and try to play around my team and help them get stronger (since they were doing decent).
Yet at the end of the game I was flamed for not getting marks and “afk farming” after my deaths. Which just got me wondering whether I could’ve really done more if I went in for some risky marks?
If it helps, my mid was losing rlly badly, instead of conceding CS and soaking exp he essentially just ran it down. So mid was really fed and their jungler used that to secure essentially every objective. With a 2lvl gap between me and their jungler by the end of the game and an item.
Edit: in case it wasn’t clear, I was referring to a normals ^
This vid just came up on my feed, so thought why not post here.
I have been wondering for the longest time where the character we know as Arthas really died.
When he picked up Frostmourne from what I understand, his soul was directly consumed by it and he began to instantly her the whispers of Ner’Zhul and carry out his bidding.
But what does that really mean, cause at that point what separates him from an undead ghoul under the control of a necromancer?
(Also was he a DK, cause he wasn’t killed and raised idk?)
Once he put on the Helm of Domination did much change then, or was Ner’Zhul just given even more direct control over him?
This also makes me wonder why Ner’Zhul didn’t just get a random undead he could control to wear the crown or even just move it from Ice Crown where someone might accidentally stumble upon it and put it on?
Shadowlands lore and cinematics confused me even more since Arthas was thrown into the Maw for “his” sins, which implies it was all him. But he never seemed like the outwardly malicious sort, even when he purged Stratholme.
Edit:
To add to the confusion, Sylvanas seems to have such an extreme hatred for Arthas, yet serves The Jailer?
I’m by no means an economic machine in WoW, pretty much just getting most of my gold from questing and occasional professions at the start of any given patch.
But during one season which I had gone pretty hard into m+, I managed to get to about 2k rating (just under), around the 2nd to 3rd week of said season.
While talking to someone I saw with the Legend mount, he offered to boost me for some absurd number I didn’t have, I think it was in the millions range of gold.
I refused at the time but found the idea of boosting very curious.
But one thing I’ve observed and never really understood, was that many boosts seemed to be more expensive at the start of the season, but wouldn’t people be more desperate and willing to spend more at the end of a season when said loot is about to be pushed out?
I thought that maybe gear was a part of it, since most boosters would probably have BIS and be able to safely clear. But even with their better gear, they would have timed it at the start of the season, just as they would have at the end of it?
Idk just interested in this and perhaps if I’m missing something obvious here
I have taken multiple year long breaks from the game at a time and last played in the last patch of TWW, which is when I first dabbled in m+ as a disc priest.
I remember only wanting one thing and that was the Keystone legend mount, I made it to around 1.8k rating in the first week or two of the season but sadly got really busy and had to take a step back from the game. Never wanted the master variant of the mount so I didn’t even bother getting my score up for those last couple of dungeons.
But when I decided to come back to the game and bring in a new friend into the game, I just noticed the timelost saddles feature and I was jumping up and down with excitement. Then I came crashing back down realising the season was nearly over.
My main question is whether this feature will be moving forward into season 2 of midnight or if I’m just cooked?
Bonus ~ would it be realistic for me to even hit 3400 m+ considering this would be my second season? I know it depends on individual skill, but what would you tell the average player?
Just randomly decided to try the game today and had quite a bit of fun, it’s a little different to what I’m used to (LoL) but wasn’t that hard of a transition.
I did notice that this game seemed to have quite a few interesting characters to choose from, one that’s caught my eye being Abathur.
But I quickly noticed the insane price on each hero, there were those mega-bundles but I think it said I could only choose one so I wasn’t too sure if I should buy one or not.
Main one tho is the question of ongoing support, I don’t mind spending money if I know this game is still going places, but just paying for nothing seems a little ehh to me.
Regardless, I’m excited to see what this game has to offer and any help is much appreciated!
The Forsaken of Lordaron (Humans) seem to all been raised into undeath with these golden eyes.
I’ve read a few theories about this and found the most likely theory to be that their eye color is a result of the different ritual used to raise them vs the later death knights we know.
(I’m open to hearing any other theories you may have however!)
I was mainly wondering whether their eye color could change like the elves do, obv elves seem to be a lot more magically attuned and susceptible to the arcane. But would a forsaken warlock have fel green eyes, or a mage blue eyes?
I don’t recall seeing any forsaken in game with any eye color other than gold, except for the elven forsaken who seem to have red eyes (and Nathaniel B who shares this).

Really wanted the Undercity plague bat for the longest time but have begun to lose out hope of it ever returning :/
Never seen it on the Black Market Auction house or Trading post, so this just got me thinking as to whether these items do ever come back?
SOLVED
(Incase anyone was curious, it allows for various new audio and battery solutions to be made by steam or third parties while leaving the computing power alone)
Pretty much title.
Just saw a few posts and videos recently highlighting and praising the frames modularity, but I never really got it.
I can remove the physical “headset” of nearly every vr system out on the market and replace its straps or add battery packs etc.
Other than that the expansion port at the front does seem unique, but its use cases are still uncertain till reviews come out.
Just hope some more deep into the vr space or who are more technically inclined could enlighten me!

We know they were essentially the pinnacle of Hornsent tradition and society, with their ritualistic ways being turned to martial means.
So they were never intended as machines of war I’m guessing, but they definitely seemed like some of the best the Hornsent had access to when Mesmer came strolling by.
Were they actually that strong though?
Are the last 2 we find in the DLC still within their primes or have their powers waned with time?
(Like a hollowed Gwynn)
Also just a side question, but I’m a little confused about the difference between Divine Invocation and the Aspect of the Crucible miracles, are they different names for the same thing or?
I got the above image from the board pinned at the top of this subreddit, I was going through various sections of official and unofficial info when I stumbled onto the controllers section.
I assume “Capacitive sensing for all input surfaces” just means that the various contact points on the controller, like the joysticks and buttons may be used like in Q3 / other meta headsets.
But I was just a little confused as to what Valve means by:
“Capacitive analog finger tracking”
Am I meant to infer that this is separate method of guessing your fingers positions or literally just what the Valve Index does?
I’m not the most tech savvy and was hoping someone here could help
Obviously if DS3 is the end of the series and no further instalments are made, TRC (The Ring City) makes a lot of sense to me. It’s a mix of nostalgia and a collapse of the world we knew from DS1-3.
But strictly looking at DS3 in isolation, it makes me feel a little disappointed that we didn’t get more on Londor either through the main game or an additional DLC.
We’ve always had areas mentioned in lore that we’ve yet to ever visit, like Astora and Carim. But none seem to take as much of a front seat in the trilogy as Londor does in DS3.
We have the characters, items and more if you include AoA (Ashes of Ariandel). If we had just a little more I think it would’ve been perfect.
Both TRC and Londor would be in theory “A land of Hollows”, humanity’s true form. But the ideological differences imo are what make me much rather visit Londor.
BUT more importantly Londor is uniquely poised to break a rule that (nearly) all areas we visit in the trilogy must follow, being a shell of its former self that’s fallen into ruin by the time we make it there.
Think of Anor Londor (DS1), Drangleic (DS2) and Lothric (DS3). All essentially filled to the brim with mindless hollows except for the spare few we manage to scrounge together.
Londor has a population that accepts hollowness and seeks out their “true strength”, we could finally visit an area that’s not a shadow of its former self. Somewhere where we have more npcs, stronger bosses and more lore (Diff between visiting ruins vs the city it once was).
Those are just my two cents and I’m interested to hear your thoughts below!
Pretty much title.
Interested to see what you all think, as well as perhaps some theoretical applications that their users may have missed out on!

If I was Diavolo I would’ve been spamming my Epitaph to see exactly what fate has in store during that final confrontation.
Yet it seems like after he destroyed Silver Chariot Requiem he had no idea that its soul swap would reverse. Catching him completely off guard, am I missing something or?
Cause to me it seems like it could maybe be explained away with some plot armor for the protagonists but idk, maybe I’m missing some specific limits of his powers.
Besides the obvious fact that it was a civil war, I struggled to find good item descriptions and dialogue to help flesh out what really happened.
I think it’s best to start of with the big 3 factions involved:
- Angel Knights - (Opposed to the Fire)
- Lothric Faith / Red Knights (?) - (Fire Aligned)
- Royal Knights / Blue Knights (?) - (Followers of Lothric)
I am unsure of the exact role of the 3 Pillars of Lothric within this civil war, but I’m assuming it was backed by the Priestess and enforced by the Knights while the Scholars were probably uninvolved (besides housing Gertrude).
It’s obvious that there were massive skirmishes and confrontations between the red Lothric Knights and the Angel Knights throughout the entirety of the kingdom. Seeming to culminate in a stalemate, though the death of Gertrude could be taken as the Angelic Faith ultimately failing and their faith dying with her.
I’m still a little stuck up on the role the Royal Knights / Blue knights had, we only ever see a few in the game, most commonly right before we encounter the Twin Princes. Are they just elite guards of Lothric or specifically Prince Lothric Loyalists?
That’s about all I know about the war while trying to stay concise, I’m just wondering if I’m misunderstanding anything or missing any relevant details. DS3 is probably my favourite DS game and I can never get enough of it!
Pretty much title.
I’ve been enjoying the game so far and having a real blast, I died quite a few times to dread, being poor and much more.
On my current run (which is the farthest I’ve gotten I’d say), I’ve managed to:
I was really stoked initially with all this progress, but began getting really stumped as I felt like I just hit a brick wall, like I was neither able to gain or lose any ground here. Just working to get gold and achieving the same results over and over essentially.
I have my followers but idk how to upgrade them (or if I’m even meant to at this stage) or how to use them.
I wanted to change my cult to the moth lore but couldn’t manage that either, all around really got myself stuck.
Any advice on what I should be doing is much appreciated!
Just trying to get my bearings set
Edit: Also curious as to how close I am to getting an actual successful ending here?
Title pretty much^
From what I do know however, is that those insectoid races are said to have been made artificially by the old gods way back when.
But I never knew whether that was a corruption of an original Azeroth race or something they directly made from the ground itself, like how the titans made the keepers?
There’s also the question of the faceless ones / squid faced things, they appear old god affiliated but not owing heritage to any one old god?
Was just reviewing some BFA content recently and noticed how the earlier zones of the expac associated with G’huun seem to have multiple spore afflicted enemies.
Such as:
- Sporecaller Zacha
- Unbound Abomination
- Fetid Devourer
All seem to have obvious fungal growths on their body, taking on a whitish appearance with nodes of glowing blue light. None of this seemed to be mimicked exactly on G’huun (perhaps cause he’s the source), but I noticed what appears to be fungal structures on his back which I thought might be relevant.
But idk if they’re just sores or maybe worn down spikes etc.
Just interested to see your thoughts below and if there is anything cool I may be missing from his model!
To preface, from my understanding, he was an artificial Old God of Titan origin, although it could be debated that he was the essence of the Old God’s manipulated and experimented vs truly something created by the Titans.
Now I was recently wondering, how does G’huun compare to other Old Gods, is he just as intelligent and powerful?
Nearly all of the other Old Gods still persist in some way, but I believe once we beat him back in BFA that was the end for our Blood Boy here.
His influence also seemed a lot more restricted to Zandalar, even then to specific areas rather than the entire island. When comparing this to Yogg - Saron, who pretty much had spread his corruption across the entirely of Northrend G’huun seems considerably weaker.
To be frank, I’m unsure whether it’s fair to compare him to the Old Gods when he himself might not really be one. Maybe just a really strong void aligned being? I’m not too certain.
He’s a really curious case for me and I’m interested to hear your thoughts below and theories on G’huun and the old gods!
