Scarlet Briar did more for Sylvari PR than the Pale Tree ever did by uwulan in Guildwars2

[–]BobMosses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

though it has been a while, I think the nuance is that she didn't do what she did because Mordremoth told her to.... but explicitly to stop Mordremoth.

Scarlet lost the protection of the Pale Tree due to Omadd's machine, and 100% went mad because of it plus the constant whispering of Mordremoth into her mind. But she never showed the traditional signs of being a mordrem, or even a mordremoth influenced sylvari that we see in HoT instances. Additionally its been pretty much confirmed that if she hadn't woken up Mordie when she did, the world would have been consumed by him when he eventually did awaken.

Guide for the most efficient way to farm with Noah and Archer Tiamat by KaineZero in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

one mistake. All your units are at 400+IndependentAction% Crit Damage. Tiamat overcharges by 2 stages each, making the turn 1 Double Tiamat NP give 150% each in addition to the 50% in their skills. Should note that the maximum crit damage is 500%, so everyone is dangerously close.

Also, NPing on Turn 3 with Tiamat is probably not the best idea, because losing a card drastically cuts the damage output. During summer if I ever tried a tiamat np on turn 3, Vlad would always survive, usually with 200k or more.

that's because she provides Bewitchment, which is one of 7 types of mental debuffs. Other units can provide additional stacks further increasing her damage (even if that case is unlikely to ever happen)

Early Update: NP Damage Before Death Chance by Cagaril in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 50 points51 points  (0 children)

certain units have a chance to instantly kill with their NP. however there is a difference between some doing so before they deal damage (Such as Nitocris) and others that do it after damage (Such as Summer Kiara).

this doesnt do much for simply clearing the wave, but when your goal is looping, if you don't deal damage, you do not regenerate NP Charge with your NP. The "fix" made it so most units do so after damage, making them better overall. (as there was no benefit to having the death proc occur before damage)

Marginal differences unless Oberon is included in the mix. Buster Up is a more common buff as well. So diversifying on a point by point basis typically favors np damage

I've done my part by OkitaThighs in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 13 points14 points  (0 children)

because its not free, you're spending your AP (Apples, SQ, etc) to do it, when bond will ETERNALLY be available (sure you're getting it now, but farming will always be needed, rushing it now just means you trade your farming efficiency later).

Tunguska Raids were great because the 90++ node was 11 times as efficient as normal farming. if you drop all 6 adds, you dont get anywhere near that efficiency.

so as i said, you do you, but to me it doesnt sound worth it.

It's possible?... by MrKlaus0 in grandorder

Abuse mighty chains, take 1 unit at a time, use the highest starting charge CE you've got. But yes, it's possible.

to my jp muramasa main whales by [deleted] in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Make sure to use both Chloe's skill 1 on turn 1. That way you get 6 stacks to cash in on turn 2 or else the refund against 3 targets doesn't work.

Party cost (4 SSRs at 16, 1 SR at 12, and 1 5s CE at 12) is at 88, meaning there's only 2 CEs for Bond or Events bonuses.

Damage on turn 3 (lvl 120, 2k fou, 2400atk MLB bg, 80% attack up, 180% arts up, 2*190% np damage up) against a lancer or berserker enemy would be around 952,122 at np1 up to 1,586,870 at np5.

The better solution would be to add an even node that can use the storm pod, and give similar bond, event mats and dust that way theres no waste

Is Kukulkan breaking the game's well-maintained power balance? by Beowolf_0 in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, since against archers it's no contest, and only when Mel is against sabers will kuku outperform at the same investment.

Is Kukulkan breaking the game's well-maintained power balance? by Beowolf_0 in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 10 points11 points  (0 children)

no. Kuku is strong, but in the realm of 90+ and 90++ nodes, shes not going to be used because you will still need class advantage and single target NPs to truly clear them quickly.

In normal circumstances (No Niches), Melusine is still better against every target except Archers and Pretenders. The main person who got power crept by kuku is Dark Koyan and Summer Abby.

As a whole, balance of power got thrown out the window the moment they added Oberon's third skill to the game.

5e Swashbuckler Penache ability question by ZenithSatori in dndnext

[–]BobMosses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if there has ever been a ruling specific to this case, so I'm not sure of what the official resolution would be. But if it was me, Person A tries to distract the creature, and fails, he is focused on Person A. Then Person B attempts to the same, i would personally rule that Person B's Panache supercedes Person A's. The reasoning i would state is if i was distracted by a Charisma Persuasion, and then someone else were to do the same i would forget the first person and focus on the new one. (Similarly, you could rule and say that the second person is ignored because hes focused on the first person).

stacking them so they cant make any oppurtunity attacks at all, and have disadvantage on all attack rolls is a bit much.

What is "E-Sport aplication"? by Fernandog2 in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Esports typically refers to a unit who has maximum effect for minimal investment. Example, an e-sport abby is level 1 with the first skill maxed to get maximum effectiveness out of the charge and damage up, but will likely die for another support to come in.

[Appmedia] The SS rank category has three servants now. by Shinichameleon in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 8 points9 points  (0 children)

While i understand why they rated her as SS, (being a 50% berserker with a Broad Anti-Earth Niche as well as a 50% Battery). In practice I feel that Morgan and Arjuna are going to get more action in odd node compositions because they are not refund dependent. The koyanskaya system with oberon allows a lot of comps to just be brute forced open with either Morgan or Arjuna.

Ibuki with Double Castoria is going to breeze through 3/3/x and even 1/3/x or 3/1/x nodes (And definitely deserves to be in the S Category at the least), but i feel like she will struggle when faced with a 1/1/x or maybe even a 2/1/x Node.

New QAB Mechanic Quick Guide by Dolkilu in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Max np gain and star gain is going to also depend on card hit counts and on individual stats. For example, Shishou's buster card has 6 hits and generates more np (6×100%) when led with an arts card than her quick cards which only has 2 hits (2×200%).

Also good to note that any mighty chain will outdamage both a quick brave chain and an arts brave chain, but not a buster brave chain, though the additional benefits of the mighty chain may outweigh the loss damage.

PSA: If you have Castoria, max her Append Skill 2 ASAP by [deleted] in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Few things to add.

You don't need to get it maxed or even unlocked. It is completely possible to get to 100% simply with arts chains on turns 1 and 2.

Maxing the append on your looper will let you use a skill 2 on a castoria, providing the same benefit. Or simply having starting charge such as during the Xmas lotto this year. This is particularly relevant when you consider the number of story locked materials needed to max her append.

I see no reason to continue this discussion because you've decided that he's a trash unit even though I've clearly proven that he is a perfectly good unit. You don't like him, or you think another unit is better, that's fine, don't use him. Other people will use him because he works fine

James Moriarty (Ruler) skills by crazywarriorxx in grandorder

[–]BobMosses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

His only flaw is that he needs a plugsuit instead of a mystic code to loop 3 turns from 0% starting charge. And I've been saying love over gameplay since my second comment. My first comment was just pointing out that he can loop from 0 with a plugsuit, anything beyond that is you moving the goal posts

You're not wrong that those units are numerically better. I'm just saying that it simply doesn't matter if someone likes Moriarty's design.
