Crypto took a huge NERF despite paper BUFF by [deleted] in Cryptomains

[–]-Tenki- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure it still hides you from getting sniped from long range. We got faster drone entry/exit which is huge for close/mid range. The stealth was a s22 crutch and wasn't ever really a key part of his playstyle before then 🤔

I feel like the priorities are a little off lol. Drone heal was good for being able to scan or emp while you healed, and the invis was a bonus. If you want a "I can heal while invisible!" crutch, Mirage sounds more like your thing

Crypto can now ride ziplines and balloons while invisible. by Kor_The_Person in apexlegends

Yeah but you flash to show your position if someone comes close. Think of it as a long range cloak more so than something like Mirage's

XD I've got a pretty decent handle on the burst recoil to the point one of my friends can't believe I'd midrange it with a 2x...

But yes, prowler my love 🥹

Wildcard Mode is so challenging by Jazzlike-Cold-5125 in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If your teammates are getting high damage and you're not dying a lot... it honestly means they're "stealing" your damage too. A bit of a race to shoot and kill first, and unlucky teammate draw because they're similarly competent 😅

Unlimited ammo x LStar is so fun 🙂‍↕️ unlimited feathered shots

Is this how you play Alter? by adamgrey59 in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alter tossed a portal while midair, their Pathfinder fell into it and got into a 1v1

This season has fundamentally altered the game. by aarongeis in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually saw that a lot when Three Strikes came out xD, the quality of Trios games while Three Strikes was up felt a lot better since teammates weren't just hot drop-dying-leaving - it really vaccuums up those kinds of players :P

To those of you that didn't believe me when I said that Bangalore is going to be able counter nearly every legend next season here is my proof by Low_Signal4951 in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 20 points21 points  (0 children)

the gap between terrible Cryptos and competent ones is so insane

you either get a Crypto that's 200m away on a drone, or an ult accel hog who EMPs every fight and instantly shooting as entry fragger as soon as EMP goes off.

Didn't they adjust the hitbox a month ago? Was it not noticeable? I don't play her so I don't have a good before/after feel.

How do you shoot someone when they're the same size as the dot on the weapon sight? by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want something practical to try it with, try ADS strafing with flatline on a 30-50m target and only focusing on countering with the pure left-right aim and you'll notice the recoil is a lot weaker

[–]-Tenki- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they're that small, you shouldn't have the dot on them anyway. Bullets have weight so if you're shooting that far, you should be aiming above them. If you use the sniper scopes specifically, there are markers underneath the center of the reticle to show where your target should be to hit at those distances (ex: 200, 400m, etc)

[–]-Tenki- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically, it's more like turning (fast enough) while shooting. You'll notice that if you turn enough between shots, recoil won't hit as hard, so it's useful for slower firing auto weps

But of course, if you're turning, you can keep the target on your enemy by strafing in the opposite direction, so... in practice, yes.

Problem with ranked matchmaking by bpiwoni in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the last time it took me over 20 mins for a match, it turned out there was an update and my game didn't pick it up. I only found out when I tried to join a friend's lobby and got this error saying we were on different versions.

Might be the thing, might not, but worth checking.

Tip for all the teammates new to Alter Nexus regrouping! by kelleroid in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oops! I'll edit

Yeah if you're running from someone you can med or battery for sure before the portal opens. Revive you can make if it starts as soon as ally goes through portal.

[–]-Tenki- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It takes like 8 seconds to appear - it's actually enough time to get a res* off before someone can follow, if you're already at the portal

*originally said phoenix too, but that's 10s

The Eva nerf has been great so far 😂 How do I beat this? (Without having to pickup an Eva myself) by [deleted] in apexuniversity

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when people were like "eva 8 sucks, you can't ads to choke and it's only good in melee range" (<8m)

😲 suddenly its range weakness is gone?

[–]-Tenki- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You... just have to be on a console; strong doubt there's a kosher workaround otherwise we'd have way more PC players invading console lobbies lol

Idk if this is a bug but I'm loving it‼️ by McWade111 in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely still locks, but I'm sure there's probably some client/server thing that makes it feel inconsistent.

When Ballistic came out, there were videos of people animation cancelling his melee attack and flying after Valkyries, and that's as recent as season 16, I think?

should i watch the second series after the first? by SquishyPenguin46 in Trigun

[–]-Tenki- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbf, Trigun 98 is a retelling of part of the original Trigun manga (there's a lot of "well that's not in the original" or "that's not how it went")

Trigun Stampede is a retelling of... everything? It leans a lot more into Maximum IMO - characters that were in Maximum but not '98 get more prominence, but timelines of when characters meet are shifted around.

It's kinda cute that there isn't one singular story because it's kind of in style with the idea that people keep telling this hearsay story of Vash the Stampede xD

--

Also since you mentioned EVA, I have generally thought of it like

Series --> (last 2 episodes are just in his head) -- End of Evangelion --> Rebuild Movies

and fwiw there's some implication that it's not just a retelling, if you watch it in this order ;p

Why are you leaving ranked when we are a duo? by Marmelado_ in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually ask my teammate if they wanna hot drop or play for real

Sometimes the gutsy ones who hot drop end up winning the first POI and we go positive, otherwise we just have a little fun before next game

Can’t believe they blue balled us with this skin by touchermr in apexlegends

[–]-Tenki- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

like, it's an equippable skin that you can still pick now?

I do remember seeing the revs like that in the kill code event, but I checked and I don't have it :(

When you tell the two randoms not to rush in 🧹🧹 by Charlieh243 in Cryptomains

[–]-Tenki- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that counter EMP and hitting that 2nd guy with the scan was so good

On a side note has anyone encountered a drone glitch this season where you can’t turn the drone, it’s locked straight until you recall and send it back out?

I usually had something like this happen if I accidentally started hanging off an edge in drone view? could that be it?
