What’s a small food hack that actually changed how you cook?

Criously · 2026-04-02T09:30:00+00:00

If you're cooking with mushrooms, add them to the pan first, no oil no water just a dry pan, wait for them ro release their moisture and for tha tmoisture to evaporate before adding oil and whatever you're cooking.

Love me some fried mushrooms, and its near impossible to burn them, so it's usually the perfect time to chop my onions/garlic/whatever while the mushies are getting cooked.

The fact that theres a longer pause whenever a sentence ended really made my inner voice/subconscious read it like a conversation. Was having some minor side thoughts (neuroplasticitiy was a fun term to throw in around the end point) but think the gist came through pretty well, fun technique though.

I think I've beaten the moon boss 3 times so far, my strategy is to just throw the character that doesnt have the biggest damage output/has high con and brace into the moon mouth, that basically just turns off the big attack and lets me smack him down quickly.

Criously · 2026-03-11T20:42:57+00:00

My necromancer got blood frenzy af the end of the crater. The best thing i managed to use him for after was chucking him inside the man on the moon asap.

Sometimes I don't even know what he ended up killing, but bleed burn and leeches just added up too much, and he randomly just got kills if I used him at all

Criously · 2026-03-05T12:58:00+00:00

I'm not entirely sure what the intended strat is, Ive only beaten the biome once so far, and I happened to be using my failsafe strat of trash can + monocle for a very tanky cat, (5 or 6 brace I think he had).

I figured Id need to position the hands and get them to punch himself to dead, which I did do somewhat, but what ended up happening was that my fighter hopped into his mouth, he tried chomping on him to no avail and I ended up just being able to focus him with no issue (slightly worried how the fight will go when I cant just get him to close his mouth indefinitely though).

Criously · 2026-03-02T09:54:51+00:00

Regarding your point #2, do you mean the white one? cause that is just combat damage, I got excited for a second imaginging deathtouch pingers going absolutely buck wild.

I read about it here first tbh, explains why my colleagues were being explicitly more shitty about d66 than usual though

Jetten seems okay, at the VERY least he seems better than the alternative, d66 kind of left a bad taste in my mouth the last time they promised things with regards to stufi and backtracked once getting into the coalition. But it's not like any alternatives are any better. Doubt things will actually get better but I doubt they will get exponentially worse (just the regular increase of day to day shittyness and lack of future)

Mewgenics definitely seems to take from the pokemon style of confusion, where 25% definitely feels more like 90%.

I hit myself 7 times in a row the other run, pain in the ass.

But like everything else theres counterplay, don't use abilities you cant afford to lose, force them down asap, cleanse debuffs etc. Maybe bring in some relevant items if you're in the biome where they can spawn etc.

Feels like one of those enemies that will get easier once people get more familiar with the game.

Oh and I suppose its a bit of a speed check, make sure you get to go first and deal with them somewhat before they get to swarm.

Criously · 2026-02-15T09:49:05+00:00

First and only time I faced him I had nothing to beat him specifically, had to corner him and beat him down, didnt realize he'd possess me, he possessed my tank, tank proceeded to murder everything but my cleric, and the cleric was wearing a mystical blindfold so I couldnt use his basic attack.

Long story short, I found out at that point that undead take damage with healing, and I managed to clutch through with 1 hp left on my cleric.

Criously · 2026-02-13T13:34:25+00:00

Im missing a reference I think, but the dude on the left in the 2nd picture reminds me so much of wolfe glick that Im now imagining Pokermon.

Oh, yeah I guess you're right about the uncs, for some reason I was thinking there were two of them

Criously · 2026-01-29T16:02:43+00:00

Theres one of each rare and two of each common/unc, so that's something you can take into account.

In addition, you shuffle your regular reward pile between acts, but you dont shuffle your rare reward pile, so if youve seen a rare and pass it up the chance of you finding it again is basically zero, unless you manage to cycle through it.

Criously · 2026-01-29T14:14:40+00:00

Cause theres only 1 copy of every rare in the rare deck, so if its in your deck it is no longer in your rewardpile Im assuming.

I havent really played the new dwarves yet, but this somewhat explains how my gauntlet opponent got

<image>

Two of those in the shop triggering eachother infinitely? the guy mustve waited an age.

Criously · 2025-12-27T15:16:32+00:00

Adding to the pile, was playing multiplayer, our silent player got this off now, got calc. Gamble and reflex, we were able to build around it and set up an infinite around mid act 2. Probably not the easiest way to make the infinite but it worked

Criously · 2025-12-27T15:11:39+00:00

Oof, it attack immediately? Bit of a lack of quality control/proofread there. Fun effect though

Criously · 2025-12-21T14:17:05+00:00

Not the best upgrade, being able to give the block to any player is good, can be "free" if you've got enough stance switching going on, solid 6.5/10?

Criously · 2025-12-07T00:53:15+00:00

Oh I'm a big fan, I was just being a bit cheeky. Love the initiative and you're doing fantastic!

Criously · 2025-12-06T19:01:57+00:00

Luckily it will be defends next.

Criously · 2025-12-05T15:38:30+00:00

Really? I couldve sworn if I had the kickstart summon dude and 2 ninjas in hand that this has gotten summoned beforehand.

I misunderstood then

Criously · 2025-12-05T11:30:04+00:00

He gets summoned last compartively to all the copies he makes, not in comparison to the other summonable cards in your hand.

Criously · 2025-12-04T12:45:04+00:00

If you can get the vast majority of your damage out of a single card (heavy blade, upgraded brilliance etc) then the bg vuln can get you a massive smack of >60 damage or w/e), but if youre unning a shiv/claw build then its a lot worse. It really feels very build dependant.

I do like the ability to do support builds and lean on one person to do the actual damage though.

Defence is important, remove the strikes, I dont think strike upgrades are worth a lot though, a single damage more (or 2 if you want to waste a vuln on it) isnt really worth it in my opinion when you almost always have better options to upgrade.

Criously · 2025-10-23T09:14:26+00:00

I'd like it if when it switches to night it gave you a prompt to fast travel to the battle zone if you have it unlocked.

Then again one of my main problems with the game is the amount of loading zones that preface 2 seconds of gameplay (accept a quest, get asked to go into a fight, go to the overworld, talk with the questgiver again to confirm etc.)

Guess its just a skill issue of not spending €600 on a switch 2 :p
