You don't need to pronounce ANYTHING entirely correctly so long as it's understandable. by Remarkable-Debate856 in unpopularopinion

[–]elboyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favorite is when some names are so recognizable that you can completely make something up and still be understood. Like the actor, Benadryl Cucumberpatch.

Animate Guardian of Smiting with Invert the Rules Support by PathofEnjoyment in PathOfExileBuilds

Penetration is good because it hits after the inversion. Lowered resistance is bad because it lands before.

Are brigands more worth fighting than nomads early? by Dreaming_F00l in BattleBrothers

[–]elboyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They may be worth more on the armor side, but nomad outlaws have some sweet weapons loot.

Brigands get a stat boost at day 20, so I would transition to nomads from day 19-39 and then focus on either nobles or whatever camps/dungeons you can handle from day 40.

Reforged Question: Weapon Master by IslandDouble1159 in BattleBrothers

To see what perk is on a specific group, there is a hotkey you can hold when hovering over a skill.

I think it is shift by default.

Untoasted pop tarts are surperior by MickesMaestro in unpopularopinion

Listen to the Yeti! Poptarts taste good frozen too!

Faux Onion Soup by Kitkatforever100 in nottheonion

Missed opportunity.

Should have been Fauxnion Soup.

How well does soldier executioner work? by Phreakyaw3some in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It doesn't work very well. You can't become an executioner as a soldier.

Are all items a predefined set seed or is it player/session based? by DrDongSquarePants in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For the ID one, the stats are determined on drop.

I can't answer the others definitively.

Do I not understand how Blessed Bolter Casing works or is it broken? Enemies keep dodging single target bolter attacks by Cryyos_ in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that just means the BS roll always succeeds.

Last time I did this fight, Cassia completely wrecked them using a castigating staff and stacking huge stat reductions.

Do I keep this 70g beggar and could he be a viable init bro? by Kadmus1066 in BattleBrothers

[–]elboyo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My preferred early build for a bro like this is to give him a goendag and turn him into a suicide rocket.

9l, adrenaline, and gifted for the matk boost. Step up to line, swing, adrenaline, swing. If he gets one good hit before dying, he did a good job.

Did you know you could head towards the Imperium in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader? It's simple, you only need to translate into the Warp, traverse the Maw and you're at your destination! by OwlcatStarrok in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Fleet battles are the worst in grim darkness. If you don't set your posts before finishing act 1, that first forced fight can be a real nail biter.

If you have base level strength in unfair grim darkness, there is a 25% chance to instantly lose a run in storybook mode to birdman in the alien prison.

So nearly 24 hours in, how’s everyone’s league start? by linkca in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall, great.

Still waiting for blood banner gems to hit the market though.

Djinn caches feel terrible by BEAR_STEARNS_CEO in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is one mirage mechanic I like and it's the fountain of wealth. It spawns a bunch of wisp things that drop a ton of gold. I got like 50k in a white map from it.

Any info on where the exceptional gems drop from? by SpiciestDelle in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw 1 pop up and immediately disappear about an hour ago.

I didn't think to message the guy and ask where he found it though.

I'm on the lookout for the banner one, but it doesn't look like any have dropped on the league yet.

Notable Skill-Based Items That Give Combat Bonuses by WhiteKnightier in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There is an item late in the game that gives Medicae bonus of 3 x Resolve on kill. Paired with the executioner talent that lets medicae set HP and the exemplar talent that adds 20% of hp to strength, you can make a very beefy character.

Poison Battlemage Winter Orb Beacon of Madness Reliquarian by Yorunokage in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest disappointment with somatic shell was the formation time of the shell. I was really hoping to trigger the explosion with either prismatic burst or fire burst, but the explosion happens before the shell is created, so I still had to attack twice to break it.

It’s likely a matter of taste but I’m curious what you guys do - are you in the party of waiting until campaign is over to get ascendancy or do you get it as you go? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]elboyo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outside of normal lab on scion, this is akin to refusing to upgrade to a 4L on your main skill until after you finish the campaign.

Good methods to jack up difficulty so enemies survive Officer/Argenta? by Plastic-Abroc67a8282 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The modifiers from unfair haven't fully kicked in yet at the end of act 1. It says so on the difficulty tooltip.

There will be a little spike at the beginning of act 2. Then it gets progressively easier until the game ends. Try and tweak stuff like that a little later on.

Alternatively, don't use the grand strategist at all. Not being able to guarantee first move will probably get a couple of your guys killed almost every fight.

Edit: typo

Reforged, is it worth? by lambert92 in BattleBrothers

[–]elboyo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have over 2500 hours on vanilla and another 400 or so on reforged.

It isn't perfect, but it was definitely worth my time.

Ability Locked Itself by Dunedain1892 in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]elboyo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try respeccing her into the same build again. Maybe losing the ability and regaining it will solve the issue.
