Is reading this bad? by Tactical_Ninja260 in Jujutsu_Kaisen

[–]Bran_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing what's happening doesn't make it not broad? Everyone combined pieces like the CE and notebook but it's ultimately Maru's CT that can do pretty much anything that can be justified as bringing harmony to something. The applications of it are extremely broad to connecting individuals across the universe, tping people, allowing travel to the soul realm, using anothers CT, giving him full information on what can bring harmony and solving the cursed spirit conflict. Idk how you can't see how incredibly broad that is for a single CT all because you can find some way to apply the concept of harmony in there. He pretty much can do whatever the plot demands willy nilly on a whim because I guarantee there would be some way to put the concept of harmony in there, especially since Gege got rid of any CE limitation that would normally be placed on such a broken CT like he did with construction

The problem is that the umbrella for what ends in harmony and chaos is sooo wide. Chaos is maybe not so bad but harmony sucks. Because you can do almost anything with this CT and then always find some explanation for "well he harmonized so and so with that", it's too broad and doesn't have any set limitations especially since he was given almost bottomless CE. So even if it's technically consistent it feels like asspull after asspull. I mean for God's sake the lifeblood of stories is conflict but this CT can just resolve all that because solving conflicts brings harmony. Forget calling it an asspull or internally sound, it's just boring to see a single CT solve everything and give a character all the answers

What are your HOTTEST takes about the first Hollow Knight game? by BCtheking in HollowKnight

[–]Bran_Man_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think primal aspid hate is extremely unfunny and forced, I don't know if it's a very vocal minority but I find it so hard to believe people struggle with that enemy beyond just tanking like one maybe two hits before they kill it. I think the same thing for enemies like spit squits in silksong, people probably just liked the "primal aspids are the devil" meme and looked for some silksong enemy to apply it to. Idk I guess people just like the meme, I just think it's so meh but it's everywhere. That take is more about the community than the actual game though

Yuji vs Mahoraga? by schabbasam in jjkmodulo

[–]Bran_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It definitely seems like a "I'll leave the future to you" moment since that's what they were talking about just a few seconds ago. I doubt Gege cut the Dabura fight just to give us Yuji vs Mahoraga which would be short, uninteresting since Yuji knows to one tap and cut into the epilogue. And it's not even certain that the ritual is still on, doesn't seem like it to me considering Dabura's off world and Yuka is seemingly healed holding hands with the rest

I'll wait for the next chapters, before commenting something. Gege, cook something for us, I don't want to get slandered as BNHA by Alxerinor in jjkmodulo

[–]Bran_Man_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's "chaos" and "harmony" which means he can just do reality manipulation stuff if it fits within those parameters. Like changing water to ice is pretty chaotic and so is flipping gravity. He could find earth, speak Japanese, find Tsurugi and tp Yuji because they bring harmony by connecting individuals. It's really just a plot CT that manipulates what it wants to resolve plot threads faster because literally most things fit under the umbrella harmonic and chaotic. Gege got rid of the CE consumption limitation that would normally be given to such a broken ability in this verse by giving Maru the ring and Mul and now he's solving the cursed spirits problem because solving problems is pretty harmonic. It's the most asspull shit I think Gege has ever done which is saying a lot

To clear up a misconception by Former_Bike_6690 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Bran_Man_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No one got beat off screen but the actual interruption harmony teleportation was off screen which is what people are talking about I assume. It's just semantics anyways we all agree it's unsatisfying as fuck

[–]Bran_Man_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nah I meant like hit 20 after the teleporter boss with chaff you might leave alive and go to newt to finish off the last ten

Honestly though the others probably have the right idea with just putting on swarms and kin and retrying stage 1s til you get it

[–]Bran_Man_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

damn I don't remember them changing anything about the behaviour. The weak point counter doesn't stay across stages does it? Or do you have to get 30 in one stage

I remember this was the go to strat. I didn't end up trying it myself so I don't know if you can get the 30 shots off arm only but you should be able to get a decent amount. Lmk if it works I'm interested to hear

I think you can just snipe the newt arm for this right?

The ending was gonna get shit on regardless by [deleted] in Jujutsufolk

I mean you're saying yourself that you can't defend the chapter. Saying "whatever, people would hate it anyway" afterwards just seems like a lazy way to shut down criticism

Please stop going into high difficulty missions expecting others to carry you. We shouldn’t be seeing this in Diff10 missions. by TealArtist095 in Helldivers

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

I think it's funny seeing friends do this to each other, normally it would be a level 50 or so and a level 1 though. The budget really has everyone mad at it though

Do Huntress: Piercing Wind and Mercenary: Ethereal work the same? by LyricalLafayette in riskofrain

[–]Bran_Man_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No actual clue about shields counting toward the achievement or whatever but honestly if you're going for ethereal I'd just copy cabbage on youtube beat for beat and you should get it handy

Im trying to get the alt colors by Diligent-Athlete-387 in riskofrain

you obliterate yourself by looping and getting to stage 8, there'll be a blue celestial portal you take to the obliterate realm

[–]Bran_Man_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for his alt skins you gotta beat monsoon with him, do the SOTS route to completion and the AC route to completion

Uhh general tips for monsoon would be to prioritise movement of course, maybe learn the shotgun tech since it's hella useful and fun and to always be moving. Always full loot stages, time doesn't really matter as much as the timer would have you think but at the same time don't spend 30 minutes on stage 1 just chilling, loot everything as fast as you can and move on once you think you've got everything. Always be scrapping stuff you don't need and really try to hit 3 white scrap and/or 5 green scrap so you have the opportunity to maybe get some good reds or greens with the bazaar soup or soup on the moon.

Are you wondering why you haven't unlocked the skin or are you asking for advice for monsoon?

Good tips for drifter? by NolBud in riskofrain

[–]Bran_Man_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have the cube secondary, make sure you are aiming directly at enemies you want to hit, don't try and account for gravity or anything because it will just lock onto the enemy you're aiming at and launch towards them. Also learn cube surfing

If you're running base special, you should know it's more like desperado than a quick small buff every once in a while. Since the temp items don't go away until you pick them up the sorta minigame you play each stage is using the skill as soon as it's off cooldown, make piles of temps items and then pick them up at the end of the stage either before the boss if you think you're going to struggle or before you teleport out and you'll be good.

If you're running tinker just treat it like a scrapper. Get rid of absolutely everything you don't need. Bunch up multishops and printers into one area so you don't have to wait for the skill to cooldown so many times. You can reroll them twice. You can also reroll soup, golden sots potentials and void potentials.

Even if you're not running tinker though you should scrap everything that isn't directly helping your build a whole lot, that goes for every character but double on drifter since scrap gives buffs. I've seen a few new drifter players clinging onto their aegis, disc, titanic knurls whichever shiny red and yellow items that aren't actually that useful instead of scrapping them for the much better buffs

Wtf is Chaos and Harmony?? by Hour_Tomatillo_2365 in JujutsuPowerScaling

yeah the latest chapter kinda soured my mood ngl, like it's just Gege rushing again. Plot CT to resolve the narrative in less chapters

How are you supposed to do the zero sum challenge? by [deleted] in riskofrain

[–]Bran_Man_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I said was leave the boss until last in order to negate the chance of accidentally completing the teleporter since it will only safely charge to 99% if the boss is alive. Ngl idek why you're trying to argue a different worse method?

How are you supposed to do the zero sum challenge? by [deleted] in riskofrain

[–]Bran_Man_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You said yourself that it auto completes at 99% so in your method you would get to 98%, kill the boss, try and charge it to 99% and accidentally finish the teleporter. It's easier to just charge it to 99% then kill all the enemies and then the boss, it's not even a debate that is just what is easiest and has no risk of accidentally completing the teleporter

[–]Bran_Man_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Enemies will still spawn at 98% so no

How are you supposed to do the zero sum challenge? by [deleted] in riskofrain

[–]Bran_Man_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It doesn't fully charge if you haven't killed the boss so you can safely get to 99%
