How many times do I need to explain it Chuckles? Allocating attributes before equipping gear is how players avoid the bug that can lead to loss of gear. Thats how many people play the game, both sp and realm. But again, its not something people will learn from your guides because you use plugy. People who do play sp but don't use plugy still deal with gearing requirements. What does all of that mean? It means that people who don't use plugy can't take your guides at face value because that feature doesn't exist for them. Losing an item to that bug can more detrimental in sp when a player doesn't have an infinite stash to replenish whatever item was lost. It is for this reason that those who know about it, choose to spec more carefully. Not all players who play sp use the same 3rd party programs so simply saying your compilation is sp only doesn't make it relevant to all sp. You can say whatever you want about realm but ppl are still going to look at guides, regardless.
And you can't use thread views to justify the value of your guides. There are several guides near 100k and a couple above that amount that are just single guides. You should understand that there are more ppl visiting the forum since the latest patch than ever before. Why wouldn't someone wanna view a guide that has lots of guides. If I was a new player I would do the same. But if you really wanna use the most views route, what sounds more appealing to you? 50+ mini guides with 220k views? or 1 single guide with detailed explanations of all content and over 100k views? If new players gave that a thought when reaching the guide center, the result wouldn't lead to more views for your compilation.
When your guides do help players, thats great. But when you tell a player they should already have a shrine crafted javelin when they just completed terror and have a lvl 110 amazon. No. Its just not realistic, especially for that build. Playing the safe way that I described multiple times already makes that very difficult to do(given the str and dex req of gear you list), and you don't have an explanation for that in that specific guide. You told that player that they should already be using a weapon that you list as mid-game gear, when they just barely finished what you consider early game. Why are you telling someone that when you say differently in the guide? Do you not understand that you're contradicting yourself? Please for the love of whatever you believe in, go read what you posted and then read the early and mid game section. Or change what you have in the guide because it doesn't jive with those posts.
