more viable in the current meta

... the what?

[–] RudeOnTuesdays@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

They are making a joke equating real life romance to video games. The "current meta" refers to whatever class build/equipment load out is most powerful in the current version of the game.

[–] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 1 points 3 months ago

also consider polamory as you want the trifecta and maybe even an extra dps or two.

My local stadium hires a security company called DPS. I stopped one of them and said "y'all's comp is unbalanced, try sprinkling in some mages and tanks" and he had no idea what I was talking about.

Bystander laughed though so it wasn't wasted time.

New existential crisis unlocked: what class am I?

[–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh it's easy. Check your character sheet top right

[–] Arkaelus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh... Oh, no! I was supposed to have a character sheet?!

[–] mossy_@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

As long as you brought food, the dungeon master won't kick you out

[–] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

I find that DMs become quite patient with helping players make character sheets when provided a can of coke and some donuts/chips.

I'm only interested in DPS.

Rogue main looking for his rogue soulmate to make the perfect gank couple

Paladins are very angry rn

This is false for at least World of Warcraft. Everyone who has every done any random group content can attest to the fact that it is always hardest to find a good tank.

[–] TheOakTree@lemm.ee 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think tank in most MMOs is a low-desire role. It typically hinges entirely on having a healer to keep you tanking, as well as holding an immense responsibility to be aware of aggro patterns and incoming debuffs. You eat a lot of blame for not tanking well, even if it's just because your healers mispositioned or some DPS decided to steal aggro by spamming too much of X move.

And generally, you don't feel as much of the "I did a thing!" feeling as, say, a rogue pumping out damage or a mage casting a slew of debuffs and DoTs.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

When I was younger, I always played a tank, and yea the blame was always high, raid goes good, it was DPS got the good job, raid goes bad, fucking tanks fault.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

OK but literally. I'm a healer. Started dating a tank main. Dps are a dime a dozen so we never have queue issues.

[–] HauntedCupcake@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

I'm the healer and my partner is a dps. Healers and Tanks seem so criminally underplayed that I alone massively skew the queue times.

Healer and Tank combo must be borderline instant

[–] KaiReeve@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm a plate DPS main and I married a healer. There is a lot of pressure to 'just tank' for her.

I usually prefer range shooty man and lately my healer wife, bored with nothing to heal, decided to be range shooty girl.

And now we can't kill things fast enough so now she stays shooty girl and I'm tank/~~healer~~hope I don't die.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

what do I do if I'm a healer

[–] BubbleMonkey@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Prepare some side quests to give a potential mate, obviously. Then stand around in a light beam and wait.

ETA:

[–] dvlsg@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Or find another healer. That way when you introduce your healer partner, they can tell you what a waste you are.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I took this quiz, I am a neutral good human monk: https://easydamus.com/character.html

Edit to say I am not looking to pair up lol, just thought it was a fun quiz

[–] Pyroglyph@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I filled it all in and the button at the end didn't work. That's 20 minutes I'm never getting back :/

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (2 children)

No way, that sucks. It definitely works though. Maybe try a different browser?

[–] bremen15@feddit.de 0 points 3 months ago

Charge your phone

[–] Pyroglyph@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm gonna chalk it up as yet another problem with Firefox Mobile. I really want to like it, but it doesn't make it easy haha

I'll probably try again another time on something Chromium-based

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

i did it on Firefox mobile.

[–] Depressed_blender@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Definitely a fun quiz. I got Chaotic Neutral Human Fighter/Monk.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

Wow that was long. Did not expect 140 questions. lol

Chaotic Neutral Human Druid!

[–] HexesofVexes@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Oh crap, I think I chose loremaster bard...

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Its an invaluable class. They never lose their car keys and they're a ton of fun at parties.

[–] Moghul@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

This is gish propaganda. Nothing wrong with two barbs side by side soaking up damage together or two casters taking turns wiping the field from a tall spot.

Everyone could use a healer, though.

[–] Cloaca@mtgzone.com 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] MalachaiConstant@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Was about to say, I'm a healer main who married a healer main. It has its perks
