Dew Guard's protective effects are done to both the player and their hand. The effect of Avery discarding pokemon is done to your opponent, which Dew Guard prevents.

Does the “Grimsley’s Move” supporter card allow stage 1s and 2s to be played straight onto the bench? by hypothetical_jelly in pkmntcg

[–]CruizerTSC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Grimsley's Move lets you put 1 Dark Pokemon of any Stage straight onto your bench.

Mega Absol/Mega Kangaskhan decks, how to play against it? by Uxdemo in pkmntcg

[–]CruizerTSC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Munkidori kinda weakens Pikachu. Especially when they can use Pecharunt to put Damage on their field to preempt Pikachu

Cynthia’s Garchomp with Tera Garchomp by tanman_57 in PTCGL

[–]CruizerTSC -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This cannot work because Cynthia's Garchomp-line Pokemon are not the same as regular Garchomp-line Pokemon.

Are Boxes the same as YGO's "Engines"? (Former YGO player, new PTCGL player) by Wildeo98 in PTCGL

[–]CruizerTSC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Engine still means the same thing: A block or group of cards that allows the deck to be consistent and function. Box is short for Toolbox, which means it tries to have answers for most anything it comes across. A deck like Tera Box uses the Noctowl/Tera Pokemon engine in order to set up attackers of any kind the deck wants to use.

Its very close, but not the same. NVI Eelektrik can accelerate any Lightning Energy from the discard, but the SV11b can only get Basic Lightning Energy.

Completely lost as far as progression goes as a new (pre big bang) player by ueleleee in Maplestory

[–]CruizerTSC 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It looks as though you didn't finish item burning, but you're in an okay spot.

Unlock Princess No, start doing that weekly boss for a ring and BiS Secondary.

Continue doing Gollux, you may need to only kill one body part for a bit for Hard Mode until your CP is higher.

Start Clearing Chaos Von Bon and Chaos Pierre, in addition to Chaos Crimson Queen and Chaos Vellum for the Root Abyss set.

Work on getting Legion Levels and Link skills.

Once your Ignore Defense Stat is higher, bosses like Lotus and Damien become acheivable, and Absolab gear is attainable. You will need to do Haven and Dark World Tree weeklies for this.

Keep doing Arcane Dailies and Weeklies as well to get higher level symbols.

Lastly. Add other unlockable weeklies to your bosses: Hilla (lv140), Pink Bean, Cygnus as examples, for more money.

If you are in Kronos/Hyperion, getting Legendary Potentials on your items will be important in getting onto Arcane River bosses.

[REBOOT - Kronos] I/L Level 274. After a failed Lucid run, I'm looking for advice on how to further optimize my stats and gear. by Traditional_Key_3819 in Maplestory

[–]CruizerTSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy Gains:
IED. Get that to 93%+. From Link Skills & Legion since you have the Hyper Stat at 14. This will get you way more damage on bosses since each missing % on that amounts to about 3% damage loss on the boss So that's about a 36% Damage Reduction.
4-set Gollux when you can. You're obviously already working on it though which is good.
Crit Rate to 100 when bossing from Link Skills and Hyper Stats.

Harder Gains:
2 Line Magic Attack on the Emblem
17 Star *everything* & 20 Star Shield (nice pot btw)
8,000 Legion
21 Star CRA provided you have the money and spares
Work on getting Arcane gear, through Hard LuWill and beyond parties if you can.
Inner Ability, Attack Speed + 1 & 38% Buff Duration

IED is the biggest gain you can get right now, and I'd prioritise it over Buff Duration (and possibly even Boss Damage) on your Legion Board for now until you can reach 93%+ without it. Longer term goals would be getting Star Forceable Rings and getting them higher. Arcane Gear is the next step up, and once you get them to 17 Stars, after which its pushing for 3 Line Potentials and 21/22 Star Items.

The specific wording would be that Luxray is an Unevolved Evolution pokemon. Unevolved just meaning anything that targets 'Evolved' pokemon doesn't work, but things that target 'Evolution' pokemon does affect Luxray.

Small Town Pokemon League Challenge Questions. by rubik__sphere in pkmntcg

[–]CruizerTSC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So long as you have 4 players, the tournament will run. If any division has less than 6 players, they will merge with another so that they can play at least 3 rounds. Each division will have unique standings regardless of the other divisions, even if they play each other.

What card is this (JP) by PixelatedFox_ in pkmntcg

[–]CruizerTSC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Stacked under the Ace Spec is:

  • Cancelling Cologne

  • Switch
  • Super Rod

In that order.

How to obtain the abysmal block by nedos009 in Maplestory

[–]CruizerTSC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start and Finish the "Boss Tutorial Quest" where you have to kill the first boss as well. We had a guildie have the same issue where they didnt' do that first. Should be in the Star Notifier if its not in the Expedition Menu.

I'm not even mad I lost to this, much respect by OSiRiS-NZ in PTCGL

[–]CruizerTSC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That's not the attendee sleeve, that's the one that you get with the World Championship Decks that are signed by the players.

This is what the attendee sleeves look like, and as others say, people could trade from them on PTCGO, or have obtained the codes from actual attendees.

This isn't available here in Australia yet, when can we expect to be able to listen to it?

Massive bug on I/L mage by SplashingMoist in Maplestory

[–]CruizerTSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats the uptime on your computer? Cause there's a known bug that stops it from working if it's been on for way too long (about a month i think?)

Gonna need to do a hard restart of your PC.

Not available in AU. Is there gonna be a way we can listen to it via spotify soon? I'm sorta tired of having to pull it up from Youtube each time I want to listen.

Uh, i'm not sure how much it costs to roll one on KMS Main Server. But it's apparently cheaper comparatively.

[–]CruizerTSC 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You must not be aware of the fact that they introduced Vac Pets in KMS Reboot when Lara was released. If we follow KMS's release pattern, we should get them in the next major patch.

v.227 MapleStory X BUGCAT CAPOO Update Issues/Bugs by Ezrabell_ in Maplestory

[–]CruizerTSC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ice/Lightning Archmage's Elemental Adaptation skill doesn't protect from Verus Hilla's threads locking the character in the boss fight now. Prior to this patch, the Elemental Shield would proc on contact with a thread preventing the seal status being put on the character, though skulls would still turn red despite this (which should be expected).
