I like this exchange.  It made me smile:

Steelstar:
Quote:
Reworded to how it actually works in-game:

+10 PRR and MRR. When you take damage from an enemy's attack or spell, add one stack of Deific Warding (+2 to PRR and MRR). This effect can stack up to 10 times. One stack is removed every 3 seconds.


Fran:
Quote:
If you're taking dmg from mobs that fast you're going to be dead long before you get to 10 stacks!

Why not let Barbs have their Supreme Cleave be able to charge it up? It's not like Barbs have the highest PRR/MRR or even close.


+10 PRR and MRR = Nice but the rest of the Feat = Not worth the hassle.

If any given 10 hits over 30 seconds kills you every time, this feat isn't going to save you. You should probably take a look at your other defenses. There will certainly be some situations where you die before this hits 10 stacks (if there weren't, you'd be invincible), but in practice most players that can make use of this should be decent enough at controlling their own healing and defenses to make use of it.

We don't expect you'll be at 10 stacks constantly.

No, sorry.


Lol.  Fran.  If your build sucks so bad that you keep dying within 30 seconds on EN, this feat isn't going to save you either!

Funny question, could Cordoban give Steelstar an infraction for that?

Fran gets a hard on for the weirdest stuff.  He fights tooth and nail for the the stupidest things.

I saw that, but didn't want to point it out, just in case Steel took internal flack for it.

I have to believe the dev team talks about some of the more vocal, "special" posters.  People in every industry talk shit about their stupidest customers.  We just don't get to hear it too often.

Someone report Steelstar for insulting Fran and see what happens.  Grin

Oh that is too funny.
You know things are bad when even the devs are telling you that you're gimp.

They could ban Fran for stupidity.
  

Dear players,

The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means.

Love,

People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

He's not telling him to re-roll, he's basically saying he's hopless regardless of build; re-rolling won't help that.

Besides, he didn't use the offical re-roll call: PUHLEEZAH REROWLAH!

Well better he dressed down Fran like that then the way Jerry makes snide bitchy comments on the live stream when he is pissed.

I'm not always on board with Steel's vibe but I think he did some good not only shutting Fran down, but maybe giving a heads up to noobs having the kind of problems Fran does.

You're ignoring your Remi sock, in fact, since I got here, you've buried that and Yardarm completely; they just got destroyed too badly, I guess.

I think it was well phrased. And it is so easy to put appropriate words in the right spots in your mind. nicely done.

I may be ignorant, but how is any of those steelstar sentences offending fran? No rude talk, simply suggesting revamping/rethinking toon. Am i overlooking sg?

The most broken epic PL in the game is the ridiculous AC buff from martial PLs. But when you include all the inherent benefits from reincarnation, the thing is above the roof. The benefit from TR was supposed to be minimal, but now it is game breaking. start a new character and you will feel, you will get raped in heroics.

Personally I think lower heroics on new characters are harder than Legendary Elite content on a character with good gear and has all destinies farmed.

Wow.

Have you EVER gone to Law School Feyn? Have you EVER been asked by a United States Senator who is now the Vice President of the United States to write a paper just for him on a particular topic of Constitutional Law for his use as a Senator? Have you ever been asked to help a very notable Harvard PhD turned Constitutional scholar with his very-well received book on Legal Philosophy and Constitutional Revolutions? Have you ever been offered a job as a Deputy Attorney General BEFORE you even graduated Law School?

No? Then STFU you fucking amateur.

Steel is telling Fran, very politely, that he (Fran) has no clue how DDO's combat works and that if he (Fran) expects this feat alone to keep him alive, instead of just being another one of our already large amounts of defenses, he is very wrong and should just recreate his character.

On a side note, Steel is the only dev that I've seen play the game with a bit more of an understanding in the current team.

Not really.  He was being blunt and honest.  But, I'd argue such talk by one player to another, depending on the posters, could get an infraction.  I've seen infractions handed out for similar type of comments to protect favored posters in the past. 

It is also quite rare for the devs to speak so bluntly to a player about their build.  I found it refreshing, honestly.  If a player is being a whiny crybaby, say so.

I always get the impression that posters like FranOhmsford are more enthusiasts than practitioners.

Too much ideology and not enough practice.

But with the sheer number of characters and time spent playing, you'd figure... I think it must look like a totally different game to some people as compared to my experience.
