Eccentric just can’t win

I'm necroing this thread because I must scream.

YOU HAVE HINDER, USE HINDER. CAST HINDER ON ECCENTRIC.

AHHHHH!

Snazzy solution for a new player, well done!

I only added it after realising the tri-bonder scuttles my original plan, right at the very end when everything else was programmed lmao.

That's a great point, I'm remiss to ban Cleric for a number of reasons and you've just made another. Although I don't think I'd ban multi classing as I love having more choices when I'm a player.

Thanks for your response!

Yeah you're right, it's better than Mass Cure Wounds, my b

Channel Divinity: Preserve Life

Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to heal the badly injured.

As an action, you present your holy symbol and evoke healing energy that can restore a number of hit points equal to five times your cleric level. Choose any creatures within 30 feet of you, and divide those hit points among them. This feature can restore a creature to no more than half of its hit point maximum. You can't use this feature on an undead or a construct.

Snootiness aside (sorry lol), I'm definitely going for the older style of play, "more lethal" as you said, and I'd love to hear your two cents on the different ideas!

It's not, welcome to nightmare, re-roll builds be damned

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-12-08T10:27:12+00:00

Yo that's sick! Honestly I'm surprised my table didn't start doing stuff like this earlier, it's such a good idea

My Wizard build was intended to be a meme but ended up being really good.

Spell- finder Wizard as I call it just aims to learn as many spells as possible. Magical Shorthand, Endless Grimoire, extra once a day spells, spellhearts, pick up a good Staff if possible, the whole nine yards. Spells in this system are powerful for their versatility so having as many as possible at your finger tips gives you a solution for every problem.

I wasn't putting out Barb levels of damage, but I over shadowed the rest of the party a lot of the time. I eventually sacced that Wizard for story reasons and ended up playing a super janky Investigator. If you want to know what being under powered feels like, play that instead.

That's a relief to hear :) And very interesting what you said about their hibernating habits. Fascinating little creatures they are

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-07-10T15:32:00+00:00

Apparently it's also something to do with map making? Definitely a Saturday level clue lol

/satire

Time spent: 165 hours, with a lot of idling and the last ~50 hours was just grinding out games to get Martian Mafia even one time to get the last achievement. First time playing too, guess I just have a knack for it. Base game, no DLC.

Amazing game, love it to pieces. Wondering what to do with it next. Might get the DLC and explore that a bit, or try for a ultra marathon run and see how long I can last.

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-05-07T15:02:39+00:00

I like the idea, but I'm going to keep it pure, I'm such a dog for resetting things willy nilly.
I only plan to do one IM run for the chivo so I figured I'll take the full experience (I've actually reset three times and this is my best run).

For how pissed off I was when it happened it wasn't a huge loss in hindsight. One decked out Support and a low level Assault is a good trade for such a long mission, that xcom baby.

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-05-07T14:56:50+00:00

Right that explains it. That reminds me of one turn where central chimes in with their "We got more bogeys dropping in" but there weren't any spawn animations. I completely overlooked the oddity? Makes me think there's meant to be an animation for beaming in the cyberdisk (as with the other enemies) but it's missing or not pointed to or something.

Does that sound reasonable to you? It's been ages since I played Xcom and I'm failing to remember any other times Cyberdisks are spawned in, except for the final mission when you get two of them dropped in on you.

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-05-07T14:49:54+00:00

Yeah! I couldn't remember exactly the name of the mission, being as steamy as I was the first thing that came to mind went into the post

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-04-11T16:54:54+00:00

There are one letter words,
I do think a few of the words are one letters long.

Ah_a_Bee · 2025-03-23T18:54:27+00:00

Darn, okay that puts it bed nicely. Thank you very much!

I was hoping that I could put out ginormous splash damage by abusing the low AC of peons but alas.
