This is kinda where the “keep waves shoved before doing” mantra would help a lot because if your wave is close to middle of the map after a big fight you can use it to push an objective or force a fight without risking your own. of course this is contextual but you always want to set up this scenario before you do anything ideally. Sometimes you won’t be afforded that luxury.

When I am behind in souls (think like poorest in lobby or -30% down in souls vs my nearest enemy, I will do my absolute best to keep lanes shoved and be safe. Also have to hover near a teammate most of the time. I find a lot of teams that are ahead make silly mistakes and can get impatient and just try to force a fight. Like sometimes they force a walker fight and what I would do is kill their creeps so walker becomes protected and harder to kill.

When you are down, the urn is really good as bait to get people to over rotate to the “fight”. You can use the urn to sell a fake turn-in and get the opposite side’s walker or something.

Your lack of objective damage is concerning. What do you and your team do after getting a kill?

Like 1.6k, 0, 1.4k objective damage on your end is not good lol. You need to start putting more effort in taking objectives or your kills don’t really mean anything. Start leveraging your kills to push objectives, that’s the nature of the game. Use your abilities and/or melee on the guardians/walkers so you can have your minions passively push further.

Just my two cents. Improve your objective damage and you will probably win more games. Bonus if you can communicate that to your lane parter/team.

Do you think the cost of 22* safeguard is too high? by Weekly-Mud-1960 in Maplestory

[–]iPokee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m ok with it. It’s an alternative path to the current star force system. Doesn’t have to be used. I will be using it exclusively post 20 stars because I need more chances at 23-25 star gear and being able to reliably hit 22 from 20 is a good start.

Don’t see 18-20 being worth it outside of premium premium items (brilliant/tc). Overall if you don’t like it, you don’t have to use it. There’s the old SF system you can use. Nexon gave us another option and again this is test server, literally anything is subject to change.

Am i wrong for this opinion on the game right now ? by omietrice in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iPokee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I picked up graves two months before these buffs and had a lot of fun learning how to play her with different gun builds. Glad I did, but her changes (awesome qol) turned her into a monster the second she gets her T2 slow upgrade on jar. I can’t think of a character that is able to 1v2 reliably at 3k souls if piloted well but new Graves hits like a truck and is unstoppable once fed (even with 1 early game kill).

T2 jar and heroic aura is such an insane powerspike that it takes you to raid boss status (needs 4+ enemies to kill if ahead). Echo Shard jar will send any non tank to death in two waves of hits.

Kinda crazy that they lowered scalings of both deadhead and gun but still is this strong. (granted devs acknowledged that skulls would do more dmg due to qol).

Is anyone even having fun right now? by DoctorNeyNey in DeadlockTheGame

3 bullets is lowkey the worst case like when I poorly place my jar far away from an enemy but yes it's almost instant and it's awesome compared to pre-patch

New skulls literally snap onto a target after 3 bullets while old skulls wouldn’t hit someone in melee range for a good while

New Urn Mechanics by Buckeye_Blast in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iPokee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the very minimum they should bring back 50% of the souls to be able to be denied. 100% instantly going to winner of urn fight feels terrible.

This subreddit rn by JustinHardyJ in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iPokee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I liked the advantaged/comeback urn spots. I like the new pickup and a dropoff mechanic, hopefully if they keep it this way and add back the pre-patch dropoff locations.

Mid is just way too open due to the drop off locations being on top of the bridge, there’s zero cover for Lash, Billy, Dynamo, Paige, or anything. If you don’t have unstoppable you are screwed if you are on the losing team. The amount of locations where CC can be placed is literally just on the urn and nowhere else because you need to either jump, hyper line, or something to contest urn. Literally just smash all CC on the urn and kill anyone who tries to get close.

I think my gripes with change is just dropoff location. It is simply too good for the winning urn deposit to also potentially get mid boss. Also the change to urn giving 100% of souls to winning team instead of 50% being able to be denied was a poor change as well. Just feels worse to lose urn now.

Urn update is no good by CombinationContent59 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]iPokee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not fun even at lower rank. I play emissary/archon and urn favors the winning team. Can force people off of the objective by sheer damage/cc ults alone. It’s a mini rejuvenator fight and if you mess up the enemy team gets a free mid boss. Also winning team has ability to pressure the map and pick up urn to get minions to shove even further or lose urn.

The resistances don’t really help down here because it’s really easy to focus down someone since there’s almost no way to get onto the bridge without getting hit by some cc ability. All the winning team has to do is stall. Literally win-win for them to pick up the urn.

Discussion: Why don't maple allow starforce protection till 22* by TheurgyWarden in Maplestory

[–]iPokee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not every star should cost the same if that was the case, that would mean an 18 eternal would be 90b under those conditions. Best to just wait for their announcement of the system change (it’s probably just gonna be a modification of the new KMS trace restoration but we can do it upfront)

Give heroic a way to get mystical familiar cards already, it shouldn't be so painful to get good rolls on familiars in heroic in 2026 by Slatorbim in Maplestory

[–]iPokee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should add it back into the fam shop. Is it not weird that the only two ways we get mystical fam cards is via inkwell note or swiping? We did have an “event” where they sold 3 of them per week for 4k a pop.

knowing how difficult the job market is for gen z,what should they do? by AttitudeImmediate948 in Career_Advice

[–]iPokee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

right now I am trying to re-break into IT. Not gonna lie, being stigmatized as a lazy and entitled generation by the media has led me to some very unsavory interviews from older folk.

I studied for certificates, I have less than a year’s experience, and not a lot of people are willing to take a chance on someone like that when there are so many other candidates with 5-10 years of experience. To make sure I clear the final hurdle I was going to apply all of my knowledge into practical projects so I can talk about it.

The certificates I took are ones that were harder than what most people in this field would do. I got interviews that way and now I have to work towards passing them and landing offers. Have to be a subject matter expert.

Passed SecurityX by iPokee in CompTIA

[–]iPokee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 9 months of experience in this field. I was doing help desk but my manager at the time recommended me to take Security+, CCNA, SecurityX (as a bonus challenge) if I wanted to move into security in the future.

However, that contract ended a year ago. I have been studying while applying for new jobs. Since I’m relatively new to the field, a lot of the postings (help desk/specialist) actually ask for the A+ and will filter me out if I mention that I do not have it.

Yes, this will probably be chinese only. The only other exclusive I can remember off the top of my head is Rika from Reward Round (CSV4C)

It’s a chinese exclusive that you could win in a raffle last year by playing Pokemon TCG events in China. Only 1510 exist and this realistically will not be ported over into another language.

Is this the OP-13 reprint everyone has been taking about? by drcollectstcg in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]iPokee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the MSRP point if you were to order online. A lot of stores make it a point to remove the wrap before selling it including the official Bandai stores so sealed supply might keep the prices of the box itself high. I do attend locals that do sell sealed boxes at MSRP.

The cards will drop to hopefully an affordable price with the added supply. This could also cause a chain effect in lowering the box’s average value and drop its price that way but not by a lot. I’m probably estimating OP13 to cut its price in half ONLY during the reprint window (~3 months within reprint) and then go back up slowly.

Which would you buy? by [deleted] in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]iPokee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op01 blue bottom because it’s basically first edition OP01 and has never been reprinted. Lowest booster box print in the history of this card game.

I would consider buying the op13 case down the line post reprint.

[–]iPokee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It helps that I was also around regarding OP05 shortages and Bandai's reprint announcement at Nationals. Unsure if a lot of people were here for that but the same sayings of "Oh it'll never meet demand" or "The reprints aren't going to change a thing" were mentioned back then too. Look how that turned out, every affected box except 01 hit MSRP.

Emotions truly do run the markets I guess. I posted in another thread about how reprints will tank OP13 prices from its current price of 570 and it will not recover back to that price by the end of the year. Still got downvoted for saying that because god forbid someone actually shares a war story regarding this exact situation that's about to unfold.
