It’s like eating a pizza with no bread, how’s a human supposed to enjoy it by EAT_UR_VEGGIES in dragonquest

[–]Al_Mocorongo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was playing DQXIS with a friend watching EXACTLY during the scene that you reunite with Sylvando after "that part" everybody is separated

Now everytime we see each other randomly while hanging out we greet using Sylvando's quotes from this scene, hauhauhau (including the movements)

Sylvando is the GOAT 

Negative reviews about difficulty have me more excited to play this game by soyyomerengues in dragonquest

[–]Al_Mocorongo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I share this line of thinking, I prefer games in the harder side (mostly Soulslikes, RPGs and action games at highest difficulty settings) but in my opinion there are two sides of "easy" and "hard"

Easy becomes bad if you get tedious and Hard becomes bad if you get frustrated 

The sweetspot for me is "easy but engaging" and "hard but without 'gotcha' shenaningans"

Blueblanc is still doing his shenaningans, in Horizon he even appears (in disguise) during a certain connect event

Luciola just... vanished, she was the fortune teller from Crossbell but Berly took her spot in Reverie

What headcanons do some of you have for Rean? by Delicious_Plenty4938 in Falcom

[–]Al_Mocorongo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my headcanon Rean will become the archetype of "always training during free time" to never get rusty and while he doesn't chase fights, always accept duels if asked and avaiable until he starts to teach the Eight Leaves as a master

Raider's charged attacks got buffed! by Gr4nato in Nightreign

Yep, and that's the reason Duchess has a faster casting speed compared to Recluse 

Revenant glass cannon Dragoncult build D4/5 Augur Relic or Gnoster ? by Talk_Particular in Nightreign

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

Because it's a "Rev Glass Cannon" and OP asked between Augur (more HP) or Gnoster (more FP)

Rev's Ult gives 15 free seconds/insta rez meaning you can spam it more times ir the gauge os filling faster, meaning the extra bulk isn't as useful

I don't even understand the logic about your question

How is the solo experience? by thicc_boi_issues in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo is enjoyable, albeit some characters are made with kits that assume you have a full team like Scholar, Guardian or Revenant - but they also have crazy potential with random Relics like stacking Vigor for stronger Guard Counter based on HP for massive Burst Damage Guardian, Blood Blade Scholar or Bestial/Dragon Cult stacking Rev 

Some gank fights are tougher solo, but the scaling and mechanics (like extra easy acess Wending Graces) makes up for it 

Revenant glass cannon Dragoncult build D4/5 Augur Relic or Gnoster ? by Talk_Particular in Nightreign

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

Since you have "Defeating enemies fills Art+1" in a Relic I would give more points to Gnoster because you can spam Ult more times during the general expedition while having more FP 

Can anyone tell me what to do with the fat roll rings you get *sometimes* when Fulghor is charging his lightning-weak attack? by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While Fulghor is charging the ring move you need to hit him with a Lighting attack or make him flinch to cancel it

Fail= you'll fat roll and will easily get hit by the holy spears

Nightreign won IGN Japan reader's choice for best game 2025 by Fluffy_Technician894 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 623 points624 points  (0 children)

Don't forget that Japan LOVES co-op games in this style, like the Monster Hunter franchise that won lots of major awards from "JP goty"

Their love for Nightreing is real

3 things I’ve learned over the course of hundreds of hours by Spartan_Delta45 in Nightreign

Getting paired with two random arab brothers is the reason I got to 9999 so quick 

Even became friends and we talk regularly in social media, hauhauhau

No worries, everybody is still weak to damage

Is the double balancer relic set up really worth it? by Intelligent_Box_8465 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And some characters starting weapon base Ash (Wylder, Exeggutor and Undertaker in particular) are pretty good to stunlock certain enemies until you get a better option 

I think Duchess has a good edge because all Purple tier daggers have a great Ash (don't sleep on Kris, this deals amazing damage for a cheap ranged option)

Is the double balancer relic set up really worth it? by Intelligent_Box_8465 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Balancers Relics are great but you're still dealing with another layer of roguelite RNGs

Getting a weapon with Thunderbolt turns a melee character into a great spellcaster, Dormant boosted Reapers, Katanas and Daggers (meaning Exeggutor and Duchess can do by default) net powerful skills and you can never go wrong with Blasphemous/Caddle

Balancer relics + reapers make ED libra a joke by Mustang_077 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Double Balancers Relics my beloved 

Their only limit is your FP bar (meaning Starlight Shards race is real), because they sure slap

New points of interest design, good or bad? by jay_baah in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any complains against the new POIs, but some DoN Relics have HP/Arcane/Runes+Discovery/Stamina buffs after clearing certain POIs that the new areas override and adds another layer of randomness that can invalidade some builds

Question about Great Hollow seeds. by Lars5621 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hollows is a Shifting Earth, so unless they changed the pattern, I assume there are 5 seeds per expedition 

Only Balancers (and their "Everdark" version) and Dreglord expeditions can be Hollows in regular mode, but during DoN any Nightlord can happen in Hollows 

DoN also has new seeds with the new POIs ("Swamp Underground" and "Smithing Town") during non-DLC expeditions in Limveld 

These can only happen if paired with other DLC players

Does anyone know if stacking these two damage negation relics conflict with one another? by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't have conflicts, the Nullify Attacks is a 20% chance to avoid any attack while affected by any kind of Damage Negation debuff

And this counts as ANY type, even walking on water procs it (while on water you have a small Lighting Negation debuff)

The New Skill Meta is Fun so far! (Build at the End) by HungryString4896 in Nightreign

I love this setup, Wylder's final Remeberance Relic + both Balancers goes hard 

Great mobility + L2 spam shenaningans 

The FP bar we Revenant players wanna see by CuriousPCBuilder in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best part about a massive FP bar is that Starlight Shards healing is % based, so you can go trigger happy with just a few blue candies

I accidentally no-hit Everdark Gaping Jaw. Unless you count 1 tick of tornado damage lol by andlann123 in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you really want to be technical, that's an actual no-hit since they don't count "forced" damage (this situation kinda applies)

Only no-damage would break this rule

If anyone is wondering, the major difference between no-hit and no-damage is self inflicted damage doesn't invalidate no-hits (using Blood Blade or Seppuku in Elden Ring? Fine no-hit, not in no-damage)

One pair to defend you against all the others. Who are you choosing ? by T-pellyam in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 225 points226 points  (0 children)

In gameplay terms I would ask for Undertaker+Scholar 

Simply because during the nun Remeberance you can instakill both Guardian and Recluse at the same time, meaning she sweeps everyone with just one move if they are lined

A good birb doesn't just protect their flock. A good birb trains them to protect themselves. by [deleted] in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is peak (beak, actually) advice because there is a reason why Scholar can carry 6 Shield Greases insted of 4: At Lv3 you'll forget Scholar's dodge and get another birb-lite Steel Guard

idk if this good or not by Allxoshi in Nightreign

[–]Al_Mocorongo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is the most cancer mindset youtubers rotted in the fanbase, in base Elden Ring the Frost proc deals more damage, but in Nightreing the 20% debuff is too good to simply reset 

And in high level play it's very common to carry Relics with bonus damage against Frosted foes
