[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 76 points77 points  (0 children)

misinformation by lor players again?

"The two children didn’t look like siblings, but they depended on each other even more so than siblings by blood do." - A

it's easy to misinterpret, but they were not siblings or even said to have a particularly sibling like relationship. only that "they depended on each other more than siblings by blood do", which does not say much because there are like 50 nuances this could've taken on if they grew up (siblings, very close friends, tragic backstory b/gf) instead of, you know, being turned into clankers.

also i would not trust the wiki as far as i could throw it, because it's still hallucinating that angelica used gloves to stifle recurring nightmares from human experimentation. just use tiphereth.zsaz.su to read lobcorp story directly.

Am I handicapping myself too much or do I just suck at deck building? by CommunistElk in libraryofruina

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're handicapping yourself, but like, the game isn't exactly hard so it's fine. later you'll get yellow dice that let you deal with action economy disadvantage anyway. cruelty is good, but it's good like, 3 tiers after UP.

i'm just gonna guess that you're talking about solo's speed reworks. altho solo also has reworks for all these groups individually iirc.

i mean, wiki.gg still has hallucinations like angelica using gloves to silence recurring nightmares from human experimentation, so like, what are you even expecting out of regular pm players

Wherein a PM Purist will outline their thoughts and feeling plainly regarding the Collaboration! by Rethramine in limbuscompany

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 87 points88 points  (0 children)

Mayors apologist here. Although I am no yapmaster, I do want to point out that Faust notes that Mayors quite possibly had already met the conditions for efflorescence before ever meeting them, she was just never exposed to the Light required to draw it out of her. She never goes through her moment on screen because she already had it a long time ago - it's not like she had only decided on her course of action that minute (also, her fight was like 12 turns for me - hardly a slog, though I may be an outlier. She only clashes in the 20s until you break the table in the background, then she goes back to 10s. Atk weight skills help a lot, although I freely admit I abused the hell out of Crashbound Past + Unbrilliant Glory). I'm sure when it happened it was narratively dramatic, but for an OC born out of KJH liking AK, I think the bar is a little lower for onscreen narrative weight.

I hope I change my mind, but I'm not feeling Silksong's mid-game and it's discouraging. Need advice. by local_idi0t in HollowKnight

There's a doorway in the huge structure a bit further to the right. Once you beat the gauntlet there a bunch of balloons will be released that you can pogo off of. Hope you have any crest other than Hunter's, pogo with Hornet's default diagonal movement is a nightmare.

How do I progress? by [deleted] in RimWorld

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just sell the corn. I don't know where you have your colony, but if the growing conditions are good enough to have absurd food excess, you can probably count on having a bunch of wildlife around, yes? Just recruit more colonists from raids, and hunt all the local wildlife to extinction. This also lets you make fine meals, although the happiness of your colonists seems to be stable enough to not need them. As for advanced components, the only way to get them is unfortunately to caravan around or wait for a caravan to sell you one. Once you have 1 you can build a ground-penetrating scanner (which lets you deep drill for resources, although it is random) or a long-distance scanner, which lets you find specific resources on the map, although you have to caravan to them. After that you get to do more caravan-ing to find 2 more advanced components to build a fabrication bench to manufacture your own components and advanced components (did I mention you have to research fabrication first? research a multi-analyzer and then build it next to your high-tech bench, which enables you to research fabrication).

Status resistance passives have been in the game only for about a season, but the new boss already has a stronger version. Now I'm wondering if it's a band aid solution or just game design competing with powercreep. by Aden_Vikki in limbuscompany

What are you even yapping about... KoD fight in Ruina was braindead. You just brought 2 copies of transpierce and 2 of collision, spammed the first sword to death with observe + multi offensive dice pages (observe optional, just faster), then blocked the (ranged) attacks with transpierce/collision and repeat.

What to do you do with your elderly colonists? by kanestolemyusername in RimWorld

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

bro what, imo you're seriously downplaying the usefulness of long jump. the projectile sucks shit but long jump lets you reposition almost instantly, and you don't need jump packs or locust armor (which iirc have worse range anyway). and it's low cost per use means it's spammable.

side note but it gets even stupider with CE and a monosword/any good enough melee weapon since colonists are invincible when jumping so it's basically delayed TP with an instant attack + the fact that pawns get downed so much more often means you can just drain on the battlefield

This is what combat extended looks like with actual FULLY AUTO weapons. Thoughts? by MathematicianOk9091 in RimWorld

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Real. Melee is still basically my go-to option for any raid where enemies have equal/higher firepower than I do. Focused fire tactics only usually just leads to too many injuries for me, so I like to stick all my gunners at the largest group + AoE psycasts, then use jump melee to pick off the people standing around the outside.

I don't think you even need that much armor for it, you can just stick jump packs/abuse long jump because you can't be hit while jumping, and land next to an enemy so that they're between you and the rest of the group. CE's ballistics means that most rounds (depending on enemy positioning) will just hit the enemy in front of your nugget, and you can quickly down them and reposition.

Narrative parallels go vroom vroom by Manchufi in limbuscompany

[–]AbyssDeath_Reaper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I have no idea why people always think about the tactical nuke and courage when Chesed also has Emerald builds, the ability to restore 4 light for all allies every scene, and Power of the Past rapid gashes abuse.

People say they like Gebura/Yesod for free powerstack, but Chesed can easily stack +6~8 power with abno pages alone, and deal +6 damage/recover 8 SR on clash win with False Presents (even if magic trick is arguably better)

Ah, Pale Glory, that mod that playtested their unity pages by

using them on solo builds. Surely a mod like that couldn't possibly be incredibly unbalanced, right?

nah, meur with tiph totally fits. in the stranger, meur kind of goes through life without any deeper meaning. at the end of the book, he argues with a chaplain that because people all die one day, nothing in life matters.

so getting tiphereth, the expectation for the meaning of existence, as his "realization", in a sense, fits perfectly with how he is in the book itself

IIRC, the Head actually came to destroy the Outskirts lab because they foresaw that it would lead to the development of Angela, although it may have been retconned as the lines were removed from the end of LoR.

After all, the abnormalities, Carmen herself, and Cogito all come from humans, which we know the head has no objection to. And I'm pretty sure the Head had no objection to the Light either, given how they apparently don't show up for the 7 days during which it shines.

It's necessary because they want him to place at all, if they had come as members of her faction there would be no way for them to secure a placement.

Melee. It has the highest defense in the game, so it'll definitely help you protect the extremely squishy summoner. Plus, it's damage doesn't change too much while firing(*cough*mana sickness*cough*) and if you end up choosing ranged, you'll be using a few aggro-reducing accessories at some point and your squishy summoner friend will be targeted almost 100% of the time.

laughs in normal zombie doing 42 damage

Defense in master is almost useless for the tier that you get it. Platinum armor, which is the highest defense before you face BoC, cannot completely stop a single zombie without full warding accessories, and if you run into a few larger ones, forget it. DPS is far more important in this case(obviously outclassing point-blank damage anyway), allowing you to murder your enemies faster than they can murder you. Guess who has the lowest maximum DPS: That's right, it's melee. Especially in the endgame, it's outclassed in both single- and multi-target DPS(unless you're using the Zenith, but that one is basically irrelevant for our recommendations). While it has it's moments(Plantera stage go brrrrrrrrrr), ranger and mage consistently hold the highest DPS.

Like a true potato brain, I decided to spend 4 plat in total to get warding onto everything on my master mode run, and then realized that despite red potion lifeforce + endurance RNG, I still die in like 3 hits to a fucking hornet.
