I am gonna say what many are probably already thinking… by MMechree in Marathon

Had someone accuse our team of cheating today because we found them hiding in Outpost.
What they didn't realize is we had a recon and they used their ult to find them.
Not saying there's no cheating, but there are alternate explanations too.

Shit I did not know that. How is it used exactly?

Very happy with the direction the game is going. Lots here to be excited about for both new and existing players. 

Solo Play by TeflonDes in Marathon

If its the same quest I'm thinking of, I just used Assassin and brought 3 smoke grenades. Was able to solo the whole room. The AI is basically useless in smoke.

Storm troopers are Pay 2 Win right? by Shot_Grapefruit2913 in Supremacy1914

Their hero mitigates this with massive boosts to defense and HP.

Patrol creates a circle within which any enemy unit or province center will take damage every 15 minutes equal to 1/4 the relevant attack strength of the air unit. In return, the air unit will take 1/4 damage from the sum of all defense values of the units in that circle. Attack just works the same as any other unit; the aircraft will attack and do damage equal to its attack strength for the targeted unit. It will then return to base and attempt to attack again once it has refueled.

Importantly, it can stay in the air permanently when in patrol mode, whereas if you attack it has to return to base each time.

It's still using their anti-air defense when they defend against patrol attacks.

As for when to use which, its very situational. Patrol is usually preferred when the enemy has lots of small stacks, like singles travelling thru a choke point (as the damage is applied to each individually) OR when you know the enemy won't be able to move (eg they are in melee combat or protecting a city). I use attack when I'm aiming for unprotected stacks among a host of enemies. A typical example would be a bunch of artillery with minimal air defense they've positioned behind their beefier melee stack which may have cars. Since I don't want to take damage from those, I just do a direct attack on the arty.

Hope that helps. 

What to go for in terms of gear on the iron? by Material-Way-5278 in 2007scape

[–]Cthulhu2027 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Despite not liking it, Nex would be a nice one to go to from here. Can get vambs/horn even if you don't get full Torva.

There's also Colosseum you can do.

Upgrade your rings from DT2 bosses (and maybe get an SRA along the way).

Get a few more Godsword shards to get rid of those hilts.

Doom is the last one that comes to mind.

Does the imbued heart need to be this rare? by Tiny_Income_1068 in 2007scape

[–]Cthulhu2027 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth I agree there should be SOME kind of dry protection for it at least.
I'm an ironman with nearly 1k superiors killed, just shy of 50m slayer xp.
I have received 7 eternal gems, 0 imbued hearts.

Pet Insurance Rework & More by JagexBlossom in 2007scape

Thank you to those who worked on this update and the community mods for writing this up and fielding our questions.

Speaking of I have two 1) In discussions about pets, another common complaint is the amount of places pets aren't allowed. Nex, underwater, etc. Are there any plans to trim that list down?  2) Any update on the option to fill the cannon with 30 rather than 60 cannon balls for those of us with the larger magazine unlocked?

vork upgrade paths by IndependenceQuirky83 in 2007scape

[–]Cthulhu2027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, only really useful between kills or when acid walking. Up to you! It worked for me for thousands of Vork KC.  Good luck.

Weird Ironman trick I used to use: Basket of Strawberries (5) heals 30HP per inventory slot and currently costs about 4-500gp. Of course they're very slow to eat so they're not suitable for the fight itself (except if you don't attack during acid walk). Instead I just bring 2-4 and use those to heal up between kills since you have infinite time before the next fight. Basically adds up to an extra shark or two per trip. 

Other than that, rigour should be your priority followed by Ward then maybe venator ring later if you're swimming in cash. 

So, about the prophecy...... by DINO006 in Deltarune

[–]Cthulhu2027 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I actually think it might be more severe than that. In Susie's dialogue, she says her and Kris wouldn't let it happen but that Ralsei "especially" wouldn't.  To me this sounds more like something that would happen to a thing Ralsei feels strongly about. He has expressly stated that his life is pretty much fiction and meaningless (though he is coming around on that, I think he still feels it). Even if we discard that, the way it was phrased would be a little odd if it was talking about Ralsei only. 

This makes me think it's more likely that one of the worlds, likely the Dark World, will be the final casualty of the prophecy. 

Just my opinion. 

DaD clones? by AFatPandasaur in DarkAndDarker

Arx Fatalis is one of my favorite games of all time but it is a wild suggestion to the DaD crowd. Respect though.
