The artifact in Destiny 2 offers unlimited power and I think that needs to change. Season of Arrival just kicked off and the endless leveling of the artifact will potentially cause more problems again. -- Watch LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/saynotorage --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sntrpresents/support
Bungie confirmed through Luke Smith that the Artifact's power will be disabled in Trials of Osiris in Season of the Worthy. The power advantage will still be active in the mode and so will the artifact mods, so let's discuss why this was an important change. -- Watch LIVE at https://www.twitch.tv/saynotorage --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sntrpresents/support

On this episode of The AIE Podcast... Tet: There are Two Towers MK: The Faction Battle Reignites Mew: We have Secret… Oh, sorry, that was redacted Tet: We have Captain Cybyl's STO update Mk: And Abovan is here to chat about Final Fantasy All that and more coming up right now... Podcast Audio Raw Video http://youtu.be/lKkjpZZ_NQY Open Welcome to episode #273 of the the podcast celebrating the Alea Iacta Est gaming community, the die has been podcast. Greeting Gamers, this is Mewkow. To my left is Tetsemi: (catch phrase here) and to my right is Mkallah (There are scones, lemon cake, and angel food cake in the guild kitchen). This week we are joined by special guests Abovan who is here to talk to give us an update on AIE in FFXIV. Welcome! Ok, we'll be digging into Final Fantasy XIV shortly, but first, let's cover this week's news... AIE News Community Are you having trouble keeping track of what AIE is doing in all the games we play? Well glance over at the Guild Calendar and take a look at all the activities! https://wiki.aie-guild.org/index.php?title=Guild_Calendar Imperium Ludi Galadeon posted in the forums to let everyone know about a new MMO in development called Ashes of Creation. It's a player driven content MMO with the content unlocked by player activities around hidden nodes in the game. A 6+ minute video of the basic concepts is also in the forum post. Let us know what you think in the forums post below. http://forum.myextralife.com/topic/57396-ashes-of-creation/ WoW Follow up from our last podcast, Noob Raid did invade Trials of Valor raid and were able to knock down the first two bosses in the Trial, way to go raiders! Patch 7.2 has been out for a bit now and players have unlocked two of the three towers and experienced what was offered by each. Most feedback seen, seem to indicate the solo scenario for your class weapons was very difficult and higher level gear is going to be needed for most folks to complete the scenario, also the extra loot chest (the random buff) did provide extra loot but I think folks were looking for a bit more from it. The Nether Disruptor was completed and brought with it a world boss that has a chance to drop loot (I received a ilevel 900 Blood Relic for my tanking weapon) as well as an item that gives you Artifact Power (with level 28 AK it gives 1.2 million AP). You also get the buff that if you spend a bonus roll token and don't get bonus loot, there is a chance the token will be refunded to you. More Unstable Nether Portals are created while this tower is up and there is a chance to get Artifactor Commendations which are used in crafting legendaries by the three armor class professions (Tailoring, Leatherworking, and Blacksmithing). Legion Invasions are also active, but the requirement to complete all four has been removed from Pathfinder Part 2 (to unlock flying in Legion), so the requirements now are just Pathfinder Part 1, Exploring all of Broken Shore, and getting getting to Revered reputation with Armies of Legionfall. Getting reputation with Legionfall is achieved through Work Orders in your class hall, completing the World Quests that are up on the Broken Shore and turning in Building Supplies for Towers. Legion Invasions does not give Legionfall reputation, but they do help with the reputation for the zone they are in.
