  • The time for another big purchase has arrived - my commander tag! I've been saying for a few episodes now that the Commander Tag is one of the best value-for-money items you can possibly buy, and as such I'm very excited to finally pick it up. First, though, an absolutely INCREDIBLE series of highrolls...

    "If you want to be enthusiastic about the game, make your enjoyment about more than just the game". Hot damn that's so true. Looking at most of my hobbies, I adore them because there's a community attached to it that I enjoy being a part of. Makes a lot of intuitive sense, but hearing it called out and put to words is really insightful.
    Now how do I do that about things that are a pain in the butt

    commander tag shouldn't have so many exclusive features. it should only be the special marker and showing up on the map. squad organization and markers should be free.

    Seems like a cool series, but I watched one video when I was looking for guides and now it's all CZcams will recommend.
    Main complaint is - The titles and thumbnails imply that it's a guide on a specific topic, then it's just a long stream/gameplay video. You might cover the topic at some point but it's hard to skip through and find what's actually relevant.

    Why did you buy an axe on firebrand when their class collectable is an axe?

    • @MightyTeapot
      @MightyTeapot  Před rokem +2

      Opportunity cost, the axe collection is free but doesn't generate wealth - this means that I end up getting more account value by simply farming and brute forcing the game. This is a very key insight that is a HUGE part of why this account progresses so fast. I don't chase collections that drain my time, I just muscle the game by playing content. 99 times out of 100 this is faster AND 'cheaper' (I end up outfarming the collections in terms of account value)

    It seems kind of messed up that salvaging an ascended ring is worth less than 1 gold when there are exotics that cost 10+ gold. Like I get it, what else are you going to do with it if it's not in your spec, but still. I dislike the economy in this game.

    • @slam3085
      @slam3085 Před rokem +2

      Expensive exotics are mostly skins/rare collection items. Ascended works the way it works because all ascended items are account bound and as soon as you get your first ascended set your account is flooded with ascended. After you are full legendary you just don't care about ascended items at all. If salvaging ascended was not mostly trash items and account bound stuff, it would break the game for veteran players.

      it depends on the work to get the items, vipers are 10g+ because they require HoT and some HoT mastery i believe.
      exotics are also required where as you can get away without ascended gear, as well as ascended not being tradeable themself, makes sense why one is more expensive.
