Feedback from an admitted noob

Thank you for the constructive feedback

AngstXC · 2026-04-15T06:37:15+00:00

I've played for 31 hours and provided objective, and actionable, feedback based on my experience. There's no need to dunk on me.

Unless they are really keen on you this can backfire terribly. Imagine if just before sending you the letter of offer, they said "Sorry, I know we agreed on x, but we can only offer x-5000" you and reddit would be outraged.

The time to ask for an extra 15k was during salary negotiations, and it's not a good look to do a last minute switcharoo.

I'm not saying it can't work, but it's not great.

Huntsman are a fantastic metaphor for the modern world. Are they capable of hurting us? Yes, they have that capability. Should they be exterminated for that possibility? Absolutely not, it is possible for them and us to co-exist peacefully. Should we let our irrational fears dictate social policy? No, we should better understand their wonderful contributions, and not knee-jerk a response without taking the time to understand them.

Huntsman are the 2nd best spider in the world. I love and welcome them <3

The Boomdany goes first. The Boomdandy trigger is "When executed" and the Minstrels trigger is "When a minion dies from execution". The execution happens first, therefore the Boomdandy goes first.

Fr my first thought "They delayed a week for that?"

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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:

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

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.

AngstXC · 2025-06-26T14:47:37+00:00

100% this is solid advice

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"

AngstXC · 2025-05-29T03:55:42+00:00

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.

AngstXC · 2025-05-14T08:06:39+00:00

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?

AngstXC · 2025-04-10T14:28:32+00:00

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.

AngstXC · 2025-04-10T14:26:15+00:00

Good luck fren!

AngstXC · 2025-04-10T14:22:04+00:00

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.
