I actually got through both Dune movies by convincing myself that Dave Bautista and Stellan Skarsgard were actors worth watching.

Yeah.. not getting into that debate.
I didn't buy the games either, but hardly buy any modern games in any case.

Additionally, jump in difficulty from V0 to V1 is absolutely none, so there's really no reason to pop any V0 ever if you can pop higher, even if the goal is just a clear for someone's new character. But yeah if you do, no supercharge for you.

Just write Rowling is a scumbag that no one wants to associate with and be done. A talented writer nonetheless.
There are many other talented people who have problematical positions or beliefs. Roald Dahl for instance.
One must decide whether to enjoy their works despite the problematical parts or kick their whole body of work into the gutter because of them. |

Idk why you would do it. If you do, that's what happens.

When a "journalist" tries to spin that something something tarnished a game that sold 30 million copies...
You know they're full of it.

But you dont lose a charge unless youve used an amp? Why would you start charging with two V25s then throw in a V0? Why not finish the charge then do the V0?

To mix in a clear for someone else at a lower V without losing a charge. Need at least V1 in that case.

I think it comes down to the direction SE took after Sortie. I remember somebody warned us...
They said the music to Sortie sucked - I remember it - they said they went to Juilliard or something so they know music, but that was the first time we felt discourse to the direction they were taking (besides why is everything is purple)
god damn was he right... that song does suck listening to it again.

But why would you do it like that? Your charge would be V16.

If you're ML50 chances are you bot anyway and you could care less about any EP loss on death.
What people should consider is the exponentially steep EP climb from ML30 upwards that is already grueling and becomes even more grueling due to EP loss from death. It also punishes solo play significantly harder because EP gain is slower solo and you'll encounter more situations where you're forced to home point.
The diminishing returns argument also doesn't hold up anymore if you change your perspective to a ML30 player as there are still some perks to be unlocked from sub job and the stat gain till ML50 is similar to a SU5 neck.

Scenario 3:
You have a supercharge on.
You never use an amplifier.
You do 3 NMs, but time out on the last one without dealing >5%
Result:
You still have a supercharge.

Sheol C: 7F fodder = ~150EP, 7F Agon = ~230EP. Dont have lower floors in my log, I was only able to get these because someone died and they were getting EP again. Its undoubtedly lower on the lower floors as the targets are lower level.
You're not getting good EP in these events.
This adds up to... dunno but I want to say 20-30k per run on an ML50 character, more if you're lower (and/or if you bother to sync at entry, which some groups do). For a 30min run it's not bad at all, and again it's a lot higher if the entire group is at lower MLs. Youre limited to 30 minutes in Sheol C though. And ~50k/hr is pretty bad.
Someone with an uncapped job can easily *** their EP gains in a Sheol run to give a more precise number though. |

Anyway Felgarr I can share at least two scenarios that happened to me a plethora of times
Scenario 1
You have Supercharge on.
You use Amplifier.
You wipe and/or fail to deal >5% damage
Result:
The supercharge won't be consumed
(this happened even multiple times in a row to me, the supercharge didn't get consumed until we managed to deal >5%)
Scenario 2
You have supercharge on.
You're doing a 3 NM runs
The NM you want is scheduled for second.
As such you DO NOT use Amplifier on the first.
Result:
The supercharge will remain and will correctly be consumed on the 2nd NM, when you do use Amplifier. |

No idea when I'm gonna go back to work, but it's probably not gonna be anytime soon. I could charter another offshore trip, but at the same time, the cost of that would cover 4 inshore charters. I've been saving up for this vacation for years, still, maybe it would be better to take it easy on the expenses. Laying on the beach is free at least.

Ryuohinge - best looking polearm by alot and most fun to use. FU drakesbane......
Gae Buide - because the name is fing hilarious to pronounce, thats why! Oh, best pyhsical damage weapon in the game too i guess.
Tizona - Makes blu not completely suck. Also, the banana litteraly goes with every lockstyle!
Idris - See Tizona but swap blu for geo.
Caldbolg - Gutts. Nuff said.
Gastraphetes - Give to a Taru and call him Tyrion.
Trishula - because everyone needs a Taru catcher.

I'm fine with EP loss on death. If you are the type of player who is willing to grind past ML30 legitimately, you probably enjoy that sort of activity at least a little. In that case, topping back off after a string of deaths doesn't seem like a huge deal: you shouldn't be dying all the time.
Below 30ish, the 2% is just irrelevant. Undoing an hour of group exp at ML30 would take dozens of deaths. At 75, the capped 2400 loss was equivalent to around 13 deaths per hour of exp.
Yes, the curve gets nasty as you get to ML40-50. However, ML40-50 weren't intended to be something that everyone bots or buys just to have. If you weren't altering the perceived cost with those tactics, you probably wouldn't be at a ML where you're that concerned about the loss on death.
Final note is probably going to be seen as a hot take, but yolo. If you're dying so much that the EP loss is causing you grief, adjust your ****ing strategy. Dying has consequences in pretty much any game from the same era, console or otherwise. Yes, it's 2025, but you're choosing a game that still retains many aspects of earlier design. There are plenty of modern MMOs if that's your priority.
Clearly, you don't RP farm. Death is inevitable, unless you expect to clear every boss when RP farming |

"botting EP is bad"
also
"who cares about EP loss you can just bot it back"

I mean technically, don't you lose your super charge by failing?:
1.) You enter a fight, try to Ooze, fail to do the necessary 6% and then timeout?
2.) Exit by any means without waiting for time to run out?
SE described this supercharge as a chain, so I'm inclined to think we can break the chain in a few of these ways above. Does anyone disagree?
