" wasting 2 extra portals on a run that already eats up 4 portals in loot is not sustainable. What? Also, I wasn't aware the game was about grinding efficiently. It seems like you set that goal for yourself, and then you decided to place handicaps all along the way(farm a boss that you can't cleanly kill, don't use a portal gem, etc). The more I read threads here, the more it seems like people suffer from serious subconscious masochism, and they complain about the pain as they whip themselves. Just stop. really? why are people so willing to straw man me. i can kill dominus, I just need pots to do it , forgive me if i cant completely face roll him by exploiting obvious game balance issues that ggg refuses to address. I can kill domi , i can kill him rather easily , i just have to use pots, try and find an average joe who farms him who doesn't use topazes . merviel replenishes between forms , why not domi? and why are people so against something like this? you tell me that i have no business farming domi , you say i should just chill out and farm other things. that is your own prerogative. not mine. I like the challenging fight domi presents , needing to pop flasks to avoid insta death , kiting explosive minions , stacking resists to nullify his most dangerous stuff. he is fun if i were a crit build id just have surgeons flasks and be done with it. Thing is either you have low IQ or you are trolling. Or both. You will want me to explain it, but I wont, since its not worth explaining after you still havent understood it.

60 iiq is low? remember cepter mobs suck to farm , they run away , they dont bunch together and alot of them are ranged based. that wastes time since none of them ever drop anything valuable. i beat ass to the top of the scepter . dont tell me you fight your way there ... O.O ill probably just get a portal gem .... still though that really doesn't answer the question , why does mervil recharge flasks , and not dominus . answer that.

Obviously you farm a ton to use that many scrolls, and you do it in a way that either has insane MF and you're getting a bazillion rares, or you are using your scrolls very inefficiently. In case one, if you have that high of MF, then you have to have the currency to buy a portal gem. In case two, well... you really need to find a better way to farm that will use less scrolls. But really, making a thread to complain about your lack of charges in the Dominus fight just to save you a few portal scrolls? He makes minions constantly, why not get charges from them? Also, your analogy is super creepy. Why even use a napkin at that point anyway? ◄ IGN: Slayer_of_Monkeys ► ◄ YouTube: http://goo.gl/QYWGL7 ► ◄ PlaysTV: http://goo.gl/zutTCE ► ◄ Basics & Mechanics Guide: http://goo.gl/AZnGQp ► ◄ Steam: http://goo.gl/XfFxxN ►	Posted by Chicken_Nugget#7174 on Dec 4, 2013, 9:59:03 AM Quote this Post

its a reference to a you tube video. any way the point isnt necessarily that i am butt hurt about wasting scroll (tho admittedly it does vex me ) its consistency , why does mervil a joke of a boss replenish flask and not dominus ? ggg was going for the super epic boss feel , but having to portal out just to get pots? despite having beat his first form? beyond anti-climatic Last edited by Saltychipmunk#1430 on Dec 4, 2013, 10:03:42 AM	Posted by Saltychipmunk#1430 on Dec 4, 2013, 10:01:56 AM Quote this Post

Buy a portal gem, they're rather cheap. Don't farm the mobs on your way up to dominus, it's a waste of time. I don't use topaz flasks, in fact the only flasks I use for dominus are quicksilvers and divination distillate. If you want me to next time I find a portal gem I'll GIVE you it for free. I'm a rather wealthy player, so it's not a huge deal. You're really sweating the small stuff when it comes to dominus runs.	Posted by zalfargia#4840 on Dec 4, 2013, 10:30:01 AM Quote this Post

I shall admit i rather bungled this thread , I let the trolls change the topic from dominus to a critique of my farming strategy . which is as much my fault as it is theirs. I used portal scrolls as a context to why i brought up the thread in the first place. and people went to town on the context and not the issue. I would appreciate a gem . however i would like to go back to the actual topic . Why does merv replenish flasks between forms , and not domi? Domi is supposed to be this epic fight . and he has a very over stated transition between forms. It seems rather lame that one would need to go to town and miss the transformation for something the other boss gives for free.

I really dont see why you're having a problem with that. its efficiency , needing to waste a portal or two just to fight as boss when otherwise you wouldn't need to severely vexes me whats the price of efficiency? a single tp scroll in this case. theres enough trash blue items that drop throughout the fight to buy quit a few tp scrolls. renting this space - 1 gcp/month	Posted by C2487233#3346 on Dec 4, 2013, 10:45:15 AM Quote this Post
