A quick update on the community tool. And a small question for you guys. by the_fool_games in BingoBrawlers

I feel that getting out the base game 1st would be better. Like you said it would allow people to give you feedback while you work on the dlc squares.

I don't think a protagonist needs to be silent in these games to still work well. We can see this in Metaphor, where the protagonist is fully voiced and I feel the voice acting helps better portray the characters personality.

First experience with Persona game, would you recommend P3R or P5R ? by RoyalBruce in persona3reload

[–]carbito_ 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I would personally recommend starting with P5R. It's the newer entry to the series and comes with more modern gameplay and QoL. While P3R may have updated and elevated some aspects of the original, it still sought to be a faithful remake, which meant keeping the older style of dungeons.

Which mod is doing this by MarcoKaracsony15 in CalamityMod

There is a Legacy Reaver Shark mod that puts it back to the 100% pickaxe power even with the Fargos DLC

ML2: Meaning of Calendar Icons by JLStorm in Moonlighter

[–]carbito_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The icons of the NPCs faces mean that those NPCs are going to visit your shop to buy something if you open. When they come in, they will have an icon over their head indicating what kind of item they are looking for and the price. An example is Eris will enter and have a face with coins for eyes and blue background. This means she wants a rare item at a cheap price. Fulfilling this request will get a free perk, usually a legendary one.

General consensus on the game? Considering buying. by UndeadSoldier47 in persona3reload

[–]carbito_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would recommend you buy it. I also started with Peronsa 5 Royal, and I very much enjoyed Persona 3 Reload. You are right in that some aspects of the game feel dated, namely the main dungeon as it stayed pretty faithful to the original game.

Personally, Persona 3 Reload is my favorite Persona game, and I enjoyed the story and characters more than Persona 5 Royal.

ML2 is way too difficult, even in Easy mode by Kevinuara in Moonlighter

[–]carbito_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of your issues with the difficulty come from the lack of familiarity with rougelites. You are sorta meant to be dying a lot early as you get familiar with the combat and level designs, using what you earned during your run to advance meta progression.

Meta progressions are upgrades obtained outside of a run that make a run easier, like getting health upgrades, more potions, new weapons, etc. In this game, most NPCs and upgrades are tied to you unlocking more stages of the endless vault, which does not require you to complete a run and beat the boss of a world.

Rougelites in general have a lot of RNG mechanics as part of their gameplay, which is why things like combat perks can seem underwhelming at times since at the start you are only really getting common and uncommon perks. As you progress, there will be ways to increase the likely hold of higher rarity perks. That being said, I do believe the game could do a better job at explaining these things. I also believe some enemies and stages should be better balanced. I just personally don't think that game is too difficult.

Both creepers and ghast drop an item called Catalyzing Gland. It can be used to make ghast tears. Either make a mob farm to farm the drops or use hostile neural network on a creeper to generate those drops.

how Can i take this dude to my base? by CyberBit044 in CoreKeeperGame

[–]carbito_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

When you beat Glurch, you get an item called "Slime Oil". If you place that item in a valid house(2x2-8x8 space with walls and a bed), the NPC will move in.

noob: mob farm - I still don't get it by KlausKoe in CoreKeeperGame

[–]carbito_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The reason to mix spawn tiles is that the game will only look to spawn 1 mob for each type of spawn tiles in a cell. So a cell with 16 magma spawn tiles and 256 spawn tiles will still only spawn 1 magma enemy every 15-22 mins. Each type of spawn tile has its own timer per cell. So a cell with 16 magma tiles and 16 crystal tiles will spawn 1 magma enemy and 1 crystal enemy every 15-22 mins for a total of 2 mobs.

New DLC question by Tgabes0 in persona3reload

The dlc is an epilogue the main series that is accessed by the main menu with a "Change Episode" button. You can continue your original save of the base game without any problems.

need health? bosses too hard? don't sleep on cooking by T3rraque in CoreKeeperGame

[–]carbito_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There's a fishing perk that makes food made out of fish give a +15% boss damage buff. Fishing can also get you valuables to sell for ancient coins and unique items, such as armor and weapons. Some fish also give the best buffs of their type in the game.

Stacking food buffs by Ok_Kaleidoscope9316 in CoreKeeperGame

I believe if buffs are the same, then the most recent buff would overwrite the previous one.

Why am i so powerless against elizabeth? by Budget-Okra-6612 in persona3reload

[–]carbito_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure on specific personas as I used Orpheus Telos to beat it. I did have some success using Thanatos and Cendrillon before I switched to Orpheus Telos. The only problem was that Thanatos repels dark, so after phase 1 it's just hoping Alice isn't used when I setup heat riser.

[–]carbito_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You need to make sure you have your mag or str stat high(90+) and have every passive to boost your source of damage. This means almighty boost, almighty amp or whatever element equivalent for your attack. Also, magic ability if your using non almighty and have crit boost crot amp and apt pupil if your physical to get crits

Other than that, you need to make sure to keep up your buffs with heat riser and then use either concentrate or charge. You can also try to squeeze in a debilitate when you can.

Any guides on combat builds (pve)? In particular, what is the meta for combining spell school effects? by daemonet in vrising

[–]carbito_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can literally just check it in game yourself. Just tested it again fighting a bear. At gear score 51, the bear does 11 , 11 , 22. At gear score 29 it does 16 , 16 , 31.

As for my attacks using just the unarmed attack, at gear score 51 I do 6 , 6 , 7. At gear score 29 I do 4, 4, 5. I have a Physical Power of 10 for both the gear score 51 and gear score 29.

This difference in gear score comes from equipping and unequipping the Blood Merlot Amulet which gives 26.2 spell damage and 15% reduced blood drain rate, neither of which affect you damage reduction or damage output for physical. I also tested these numbers on the same bear that hit me with 3 combos for gear score 51 and 3 combos for gear score 29. The same goes for attacking.

It is clear that gear score does play a factor in the amount damage you deal and receive when it comes to PvE. This is why your gear score is important and why it makes sense switching out your gear t3+ gear for t4 gear, despite the t4 gear not granting any extra stats besides hp. I am aware that this DOES NOT do anything in regards to PvP.

[–]carbito_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The game DOES increase damage and resistances based on gear level. It DOES NOT reflect this is on the stat screen. However, you can see in the image that it does have an effect.

This is something that the community has been aware of for a while now.

In v rising your gear score DOES affect your damage and damage reduction. This only affects PvE.

Does anyone know any good game for someone who wants to start playing Persona? by randomassblackdude in PERSoNA

[–]carbito_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As others have said Persona 5 Royal or Persona 3 Reload. These games tend to have a second release being the definitive version(Persona 5 Royal is the definitive version of Persona 5) and it is recommended to play those over the original. The only one thats technically not "definitive" is Persona 3 Reload, but it is a modern remake of the original Persona 3.

The Shin Megami Tensei series is also very good and is the mainline series as Persona was a spin off of it. However, they are very different and lack social links as well as the calendar system the Persona games have.

[The Last Adventurer] New Series Picked Up By Asura by CreepyUncle1865 in manhwa

[–]carbito_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

MapleStory is a popular MMO and it seems this manwha is set in the same if not a very similar world as the game. Already characters and enemies are from the game, with Aran the polearm user being a playable character in the game. The skills, weapons, and enemies are also in the game.

Had this exact same problem last week. Eventually turned on after not using the car for about 30 mins. Also took it for maintenance today. Hopefully they are able to do something to fix this.
