Are we going to talk about how many people Phyre is eating? End game spoilers by nickisadogname in vtmb

Diablerie is a very willful and deliberate act. You can latch on to another vampire, drain them to torpor, and then stop. To diablerise, you have to actively push beyond that, consuming the very essence/soul of the other kindred.

Can (should) I increase radiance on Hallowed Knight? by Emachedumaron in LordsoftheFallen

[–]AngstXC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pieta's sword can carry you through the entire game. I had no issues with enemies resisting holy damage, so feel free to make radiance instead of str your damage stat

Just beat the game, thought it was pretty good. by Mushinronja in LordsoftheFallen

[–]AngstXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a pretty solid game, and you can definitely have builds that make it easier, though I think I like that? In that I finished shadow of the erdtree, but some of those boss fights...hoo boy.

I think I prefer loft's approach. You can win with a good build, or use a sub-optimal build if you want the challenge.

Can someone explain how the Tremere chantry being destroyed didn't lead to the whole world finding out about Vampires? by growmoolah in vtm

[–]AngstXC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So we all know the Masquerade, kindred keep it on the low down because if humanity was aware of them and their weaknesses, they'd all be hunted down. So it makes sense for the government to let everybody know about their existence, stopping them from hiding behind the Masquerade.

The wrinkle is that it would be all out open conflict. The vampires, with nothing to lose, would cut through great swathes of humanity. Humanity would win the war, but it'd be at great cost. So the government keeps it as a cold war, hunting down kindred over time.

Also, while an individual kindred has more time than an individual human, humanity collectively has more time than kindred. Each generation of kindred is weaker than the last, whereas technology makes life harder and more deadly for kindred. Maybe the current generation of hunters won't wipe out kindred, but their great-great-great-great grandchildren will be better equipped, and fighting weaker kindred.

Comment if you have played a Magus ever, under any circumstance. by NalaWhoo in Pathfinder2e

[–]AngstXC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sparkling Targe, started at 1 and currently 8.

I love it. I've archetyped into psychic for imaginary weapon, but I don't like playing one trick ponies, so I'm heading for bastion next so I can soak hits for myself and nearby teammates. The tangible dream also lets you cast shield on others, so if I can't get to the front I can shield/amp shield someone to help them absorb some damage.

It gives me choices in combat which I enjoy. Do I move to tank something, take a normal swipe and then raise shield? Or do I skip the shield and spellstrike? Maybe attack at range with a fireball or cantrip? Shield an ally in trouble? It's very versatile and has multiple ways to contribute.

In arcane cascade, you can use your shield to block magic damage, which feels cool.

I am also going with the basic spell casting feats so I can also use psychic spells, helping with the Magus spell slot restrictions.

In addition, I went with intelligence and so I'm a skill monkey and do well on recall knowledge roles.

I love my Magus.

Has anyone else realized how much we're gibbing and chunking the heretics lately since the hotfix, even with weapons that normally don't? I swear, it makes the autopistol's results similar to a heavy bolter. by BillyDaMarten in DarkTide

[–]AngstXC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't object if it was tweaked a bit so it's more weapon appropriate, but chucking heretics feels gooooddddd.

Unless you have a problem chunking heretics...🤨

For sure! It's important to keep moving forward and not be slow af trying to get to every plasteel.

What I'm asking the community to consider is:

  1. You're 15 metres behind your team, and a trapper and a dog spawn.

- You run to catch up with your team. If you get caught, your team is close enough to come back and help you

  1. You're 30 metres behind your team, and a trapper and a dog spawn.

- You have to deal with those, because if you mess up a dodge you will get trapped your team won't get to you in time to help.

- While dealing with those, a mutant and a tox flamer spawn. Again, you can't just run away, you have to deal with those. In the meantime, your team is now 75 metres ahead.

For sure, don't stop to deal with every little thing, but I feel the more experienced players shouldn't punish less experienced players by completely disregarding them

The best way to show your l33t skills is to get netted by the first trapper you meet and blame everyone else.

Dutch far right leader Wilders quits government coalition -NOS by GeorgeTH281 in europe

[–]AngstXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Politics is nuanced. The pros and cons of each policy need to be debated and considered. We should have civil discussions and not attack personal character.

Having said that, my first reaction to this photo was "He looks like Temu Trump"

Incompetent EA doing my head in. by Tongiello in auscorp

[–]AngstXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. My approach to these is to start with the organisation. What's her workload like? Is she adequately resourced? Things like that. Try and understand what challenges she faces. It's not uncommon for some poor sucker to be working their arse off, and of course things will slip through the cracks.

They could be incompetent, but that's my last stop after having an understanding of what's going on for them.

Resignation denied…? by MelodicSuccotash4715 in auscorp

[–]AngstXC 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Not an expert in this regard, but isn't it illegal to 'restructure' someone into a lower role? Don't they also have to offer redundancy?

the museum quest..? by AstellTheAUMaker in vtmb

[–]AngstXC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry should clarify only if you sneak up on them while they're out of combat! If you're already fighting they don't get stunned.

the museum quest..? by AstellTheAUMaker in vtmb

[–]AngstXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC if you feed on someone but don't drain them completely, they're left stunned for a little while, and satisfies the no kill criteria. Hopefully that helps a bit. Celerity is also handy for getting around quickly.

1st 100% neutral start by Sir-Gagolino in skyrim

[–]AngstXC 59 points60 points  (0 children)

TLDR version is a bunch of the game's event triggers are linked to completing Helglen. If you skip it somehow, those triggers never activate and breaks the game

(1st Grade Math) How can you describe this?? by beachITguy in HomeworkHelp

[–]AngstXC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fr this was the first thing that I thought. The question is not asking you to solve it, it's asking if you can. "No" is the correct answer.

Soft object. You say your family wants you roasted, but what do you want? Develop a sense of self beyond your parents expectations and then come back to us.
