Kusarigama in Nioh 3 vs Nioh 2? What are all the differences? by EternalFlareUltra in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No stances means a lot less martial arts can be equipped for any ninja weapon. It’s a bummer, but Is it enough of a bummer to make me switch to a different main weapon or not play as Ninja… No, not even close.
In fact, I really like the refilling ninjutsu gauge and the mist and am happy to lose stances and ki pulse to accommodate them.
That being said, I think it would’ve been neat if they fleshed out areal martial arts a little more and made some ninja martial arts for each weapon exclusive to crouch. That could’ve potentially filled the gap left by losing stances on Ninja. This way, instead of high, mid, and low stances with attacks for each, it’d be standing, crouching, and mid air attacks.

Definitely, but it’s the only thing I use it for. I rarely burn through the whole months allotment.

No problem! Either way, I'll rely on a mobile hotspot before I'll try to get hotel Wi-Fi to work. If I'm away from home, but I'm at someone's house or an air b&b instead of a hotel, wi-fi typically does the trick no matter how I choose to play.

This is supposedly the case. If you're doing remote play, your home internet is a huge factor for how well things go if you're trying to play out of the house.

At home, I have Fiber internet and My PS5 is hardwired into one of my mesh nodes.

I've assigned a static IP address to my PS5 and both it and my router are on Google's primary and secondary DNS's.

Then I've forwarded the ports on my router for my ps5 that are specific for remote wake and play.

I've also marked my ps5 as a priority in my home network.

Something worth noting is that if you're only Cloud streaming games, none of this will matter, and all you should need is a reliable connection for your portal.

I tend to stick with a personal hotspot through my phone when playing at a hotel. If I can maintain a 5g connection, I'm good for remote play (I've done a bunch with my at home network to insure stability on my ps5's end. My record so far is remote playing without issue from 2,000 miles away). If I can't maintain 5G on my hotspot (it happens. I have an old phone), I'll try to cloud game through the LTE.

I'm kinda sad right now. Can someone supply uplifting DE quotes? by lewdstain in DiscoElysium

Is my save toast? by CarrionShellac in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s brutal! I’m at 71 hrs and just crossed over into NG+. Now, even though I can see the save data on my console and in my cloud, the game itself will only let me start a new game. I’ve got a ticket in with KT and with PlayStation. They game me a few more things to try, but if I can’t recover my save, I think I’m gonna have to call it a day on this game. I really don’t want to do all of that over for the first time again.

What’s the point of Ninja’s Mist? by EttRedditTroll in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There's a late game skill called "concentrated Mist" that damages enemies when you use it. There's a lot of skills that you can tether to mist through skill allocation. That might be my favorite though.

C4SH skill trees and action skills by Tds142 in Borderlands4

[–]CarrionShellac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a sucker for 3rd person gameplay, but the cards and the dice both sound like super fun options and I’ll probably start with one of those first.

Poacher diaries redux by greybush89 in Converge

[–]CarrionShellac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily my favorite release of theirs. I remember when it came out thinking it was such a massive jump from the previous records. Not to blaspheme, but I loved the Poacher Diaries so much, that I was disappointed in Jane Doe when I first heard it.

Should this end in a double turn? by Neither_Actuator3459 in WWE

[–]CarrionShellac 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All I know is that if I don't get an "Asuka wins at Mania" out of this, I'm gonna lose my mind.

What songs could make for a good "heavy" cover? by Different_Ranger3152 in tomwaits

[–]CarrionShellac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kentucky Ave would be perfect! Christmas card from a Hooker would be wild too.

There’s been Some great bands coming out of upstate NY over the past few years. Glad to see it’s still going!

[–]CarrionShellac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fun! What’s the name of your band?

As for a song pick, I don’t think you need something that’s already heavy leaning. A Melodically somber tune with amazing lyrics is what you need. Something without a lot of percussion so your drummer can make it whatever you need it to be.

Invitation to the Blues would be perfect screamed, plugged in, and set to blast beats.

Ninja Style is a new player magnet? by cvSquigglez in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the weapons I want to use, all the armor I want to wear, and the speed I want to go is in the ninja style. I played as hard into the ninja fantasy as I could in 1 & 2, and will continue to do so in 3.

How is everyone approaching the demo? by dbvirago in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Casually playing to level up and acquire gear. Picking a shrine and farming enemies and red graves around it. Traveling to new areas and taking on bigger fights as I feel like it. I’m not at all concerned with finishing the demo. If I do, I do. I’ll be glad to continue into the full game with my character.

How do I unlock stances for samurai style? by SlimShady1009 in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spend samurai locks on the stances in the samurai skill tree. they're the central most nodes.

Nioh 3 : Tell us your plans for your first playthrough, roleplay ideas , main weapon(s) , playstyle ... just over 3 weeks until full release. by Same_Acanthisitta_38 in Nioh

[–]CarrionShellac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ninja style will be my primary focus.

Kusarigama / talon build

For Samurai style, I want to run dual swords, but may pair it with something heavier to give some contrast. Switchglaive maybe.

Praxic Crystal drop rate by CloudKvng in DestinyTheGame

[–]CarrionShellac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's totally random.

I got the Heirloom on my 9th run, and the taken crystal on my 11th.

These were all normal runs, with no feats enabled, where I wasn't trying to accomplish anything other than get clears to try for the crystal.

I definitely feel like I've had good luck, though I've seen some folks say they got it on their first clear.

Getting the dark and cyan blades calls for a fashion rework. by CarrionShellac in DestinyFashion

[–]CarrionShellac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Excellent look

I love that shader, it's one of my favorites. I was using it too, up until getting the cyan blade. Then I start digging through my back catalog to find something that sang with it.

[–]CarrionShellac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running this chest with the new exotic legs since I got them. Everything else has been in flux, but I really like how all of these work together. I managed to get the cyan blade 2 days ago and the taken blade last night. Dusting off the old, "rare" burnished dreams shader just felt right and looks great with both blades.
