Okay, how do you deal 137k damage but apply zero pressure? Seriously, It felt like I was constantly 1v5ing point even with a Vivian that dealt that much damage. Ying was avoiding the game as much as possible, Skye was just VGS spamming, and Androxus aside from one decent play was feeding the entire game... What teams I get.
step 1 : buy Wrecker
step 2 : shoot at shields
step 3 : ???
step 4 : brag the huge number of damage

I love how they ask on reddit or tweeter stuff like, "if you could change one thing in paladins what would that be?" but here on forums...nothing...I really feel like forums are being ignored
Nothing new then. Same thing in the old forum
worst role: flank
favorite champs : Skye & Buck
have you tried clicking on the padlock?
Matchmaking : "Hey I see you are having a 4 wins streak on Siege, here carry this low level 4 man team. remember, for you red is better than green!"
when your teammates rushed buldozer when you are playing Io.... and the opponent team doesn't have deployables

"A man's got to know his limitations."
This quote pretty much is a part of Paladins. But, what movie is it from?
Last Samurai?

@Gao-Shun what thread?
also, it's funny how the daily reward is louder than the match join and timer sounds.
One of those "why am I a deserter" thread.
(why are they catering to such dumb people anyways? the timer count down is super fucking loud they'd have to be deaf or dead to not hear it.)
The QoL result makes sense tho, and we don't need to click to play, we can even randomize our champ. The problem is the net stability have not improved at all. If any it got worse

@Gao-Shun said in STOP PUTTING THE DAMNED BOTS AS SUPPORT!!!:
they forgot to pick a champion
I'm wondering how?
server instability makes more sense, honestly thats probably why there are so many bots in general
this is stupid but an actual quote I remember from one of the threads
"I was alt tabbing on YT and forgot to pick a champion, it's casual I shouldn't have gotten a deserter"
@DaddyOoker said in STOP PUTTING THE DAMNED BOTS AS SUPPORT!!!:
@Borvik True, they don't all end up bots.
I did a test on a TDM training match.. I selected SEA region to minimize the number of real people.
Actually, SEA server is very crowded. From Australia to China, from India to Philippines.
SEA Server is also unstable AF

@Zeebuoy said in STOP PUTTING THE DAMNED BOTS AS SUPPORT!!!:
there used to be a join button in casual?
like in ranked,I only remember that ever existing for Ranked, but maybe I'm wrong.
There used to be one for casual too but people complained about it.
The auto-pick was also a QoL that came cause some people complained they got deserter cause they forgot to pick a champion
the main problem is server instability causes random disconnection, especially in SEA server.
It's DEFT HANDS ISN'T IT ADMIT IT !!

@Conrad_Max said in [LORE] Champions Relationships:
As I control my chosen characters and how I play, the "lore" I have is based on my own ideals and experiences. Basically, I don't need any official lore to fully enjoy the game.
True. But we just want to appreciate the details Evil Mojo put into their champion relationships and maps.
@LeslieShoemaker said in [LORE] Champions Relationships:
@Gao-Shun I meant that because nothing is written, every symbols can mean anything, from a random ornament, to a emblem of someone, or a symbol from an old story. You can make whatever you want with these elements. But in the same time, the statues in Bazaar, or the sign of the Paladins/Magistrate, the pheonyx of Aico are set in stone. You can't change the meaning of them.
It's like a foreshadow for a future story. It could be anything as the story is not yet told or nothing at all. However, these items aren't as random as you think. The models and background items were there with a connection to the whole Realm.
They are also retouching old maps with small details.
I don't think the moon symbols out of Bazaar or SD tie with Io at all. There are totally different nations with different folklore. Yes, they made symbols of the Moon, but that doesn't mean that they worshipped Io. You can find symbols of the Sun from the greeks to the chinese, but they didn't worshipped Ra.
The Aztec didn't call their Sun god Ra, but both Egypt and Aztecs all worshipped the Sun so technically they were Sun worshippers...
same thing here, in these maps, Moon is being worshipped, and Io is the Moon goddess.
Also, in Dark Souls everything is put there with purpose, after a looong time of worldbuilding. In Paladins everything is put there because it looks nice, cool or edgy (khmRaumkhm).
Dark Souls lore is there for the hardcore that search every nook and cranny and if we are being honest, most players aren't those. Many would just go to wiki and nod.... "oooh so that's what Aldrich is" or just link the fire without even knowing. And as you said, a looong time of world building in a series of a single player game. Paladins isn't around long enough and it's a multiplayer game.
Paladins lore isn't as bad as you think, there are a few disjointed parts between old champions and new ones (about their voicelines) but many things have a relation with champions being in the Realm. Still far better than many other multiplayer games ( i.e : does Counter Strike have a lore?)
EM however, doesn't go with Blizzard cinematic story telling and lack a good lore section on their game section.
@TangAce said in Interesting details from inspecting weapons...:
the furia locket we know about it since her release
maeve I knew, but viv, that's some interesting thingy
I doubt it's a mother/daughter relationship, cause maeve is a tigron (but I've seen someone saying she's only half tigron?)
but I think the age doesn't check out anywaymaeve is 19 and I think viv is in her mid 20s so like not possible
but there might be something hidden there yeah
Maeve is half Tigron, and Vivian is older than 20. She worked with Barik before Barik changed sides
Also... her hips is a mother's hips. Could be something

@a_a Heave a gourd.. You could shift to the left to improve the angle. Maybe reposition to the left or right side openings. I wasn't there so IDK what may or may not have been practical.
Throw a gourd at the wall behind Barik and the potion will spread to Barik position
Just a portion... It really doesn't justify the Barik having such bad positioning and lacking any degree of common sense.
As I wrote in my rage post today, I have seen worse cases. That one is awful but it's not unsalvageable. Barik could also rocket boots away
@TangAce said in [LORE] Champions Relationships:
not totally true, the jungle maps (SB JF FI) are all heavily tied to the lore even if they were one of the original maps
so why the other maps couldnt' have some lore stuff
I do admit that the two ice maps have nothing beside the spam rooms^^, there are some nice details like gems and stuff, but noting that could be related to any lore
not my finding but the old thread in old forum, in Frozen guard you can see large icebergs in the distance, maybe that ties to Evie somewhat?
@LeslieShoemaker said in [LORE] Champions Relationships:
@Gao-Shun
To be honest, I don't think any maps before Magistrate's archives has any "written" lore right now. There are only slight connections between pre-lore maps and characters/nations/races. Those symbols or objects can be anything. You can give them special role, but I don't thin EM has done it yet. Maybe later.
Written Lore might not exist (yet) but I prefer looking at the scattered pieces of lore possibilities (It's kinda like in Dark Souls) scattered in maps. There are many piece of a puzzle even in old maps like Frog Isle, Frozen Guard & Ice mines
Also, The cracked moon has been around for ages, ever since Serpent Beach was changed to night mode.
We have been speculating somesort of death star weaponry caused it and Io's lore confirmed something did happen although still not clear (there are also several red shrapnel that came down with Io-blue shrapnel- opening up possibility of other beings)
That moon symbol doesn't mean anything
Moon symbol ties with Io (Goddess of the Moon)
The map I find most devoid of hints is Shattered Desert, there is only a weird temple as the point.
