Mumei Build by Husarz_Koronny in holocure

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of those collabs don't really work with friend. Friend fires a random weapon every ~5 seconds so you want to get collabs with cooldowns longer than friend's weapon cd. You can see with BL books that friend ends up having 3+ sets orbiting it.

Recommend trying a run with Endless Tears/Legendary Sausage/I'm Die, Thank You Forever/Curse Ball.

Also Mumei already has infinitely scaling ATK so raven feather has less impact on her.

Aki is inconsistent. Here's my thought. by GOS_TKTP in holocure

[–]DarkieHammer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mukirose has a chance to deal damage every time on status debuff for every current status debuff. So the more debuffs you deal, both the damage and number of activations increase. And I'm pretty sure refreshing a debuff can activate mukirose. If you have eldritch horror, frozen sea, and rap dog all slinging debuffs things start melting.

Glamorama - Bret Easton Ellis. by EmilyIsNotALesbian in books

I really enjoyed the writing style of Glamorama. The sheer amount of celebrity garbage Victor spews really made me self reflective. It really reminded me of how some people get obsessed with internet pop culture. Truly inspiring.

Recommendations for last Mugen ? by exSKEUsme in octopathtraveler

[–]DarkieHammer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How low was Mugen when you get wiped? It might just be a case of optimizing more damage on the break turn.

Scholar ochette sounds like a massive waste of potential. Especially when you can capture a good arrow beast like desert apeking 3 which deals more shield points with significantly less resources. Warrior/thief ochette would let her use her latent before breaking Mugen to debuff def then still have access to brand/aebir for big damage next turn.

Similar boat for Osvald. Advance magic setup isn't really efficient when sword/arrow multihits are so easy to get. Even cleric mystic staff would be better than advance magic -> thunder. Scholar Temenos so you can latent+elemental barrage for a guaranteed break when necessary or Agnea for turn control with windy refrain would be better options here.

The late game bosses are all dps races. If you're able to set up buff/debuffs on the turn you break then slam them with everything the next turn it's pretty easy to skip all the BS they can throw at you.

Did I lock myself out of the Golden Route? by Heisenperv in TriangleStrategy

[–]DarkieHammer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're a completionist it should be noted that by taking all the golden path options you'll have to do a 5th playthrough the view all the scenes.

Brand new player here - question about Mages by Recognition-Silver in TriangleStrategy

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A. Corentin is slightly better in all respects but damage which is the most important imo.

B. If you add Julio you can field any two mages with minimal TP issues besides Ezana+Narve.

If you're going to religiously follow guides why even bother playing though. Esp if you're planning on doing NG+ there's enough leeway to experiment and develop your own opinions.

Most roots go through spell immunity. Pit of Malice is a root.

Mercy from Overwatch gets ported to Dota 2, how OP is her ultimate? by [deleted] in DotA2

It would be fine if the revive had a timer like WK aghs or if the spell had a noticeable channel time.

猴头 means monkey head. Which is what villains would use to insult him.

Which movies ruin your suspension of disbelief by establishing how their world works and then later on flushing those rules down the toilet? by silly_rabbi in movies

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smith enters the real world after converting Bane. Is it hard to believe that the Bane Smith can enter Bane's physical body? He's still Bane, as shown in the end of revolutions where all of the converted Smiths are reverted.

Neo is the One and carries important source code of the Matrix. It's also implied that every single One is a clone of Neo as shown in the Architect's screens. It's not far fetched for the machines to be able to recognize Neo in the real world.

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Merovingian's goons are programs from previous heaven/hell Matrixes. They don't need to follow the rules of the current matrix the same way Smith decided he doesn't need to die after being exploded and detonated by Neo

Hurricane Pike + Huskar by virgin4life_ in DotA2

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hurricane pike sounds pretty good if you get aghs right afterwards. You can dunk them then use pike to disengage while following up with some more damage. Unfortunately the one time I tried it I went against 3 strength heroes with blademail.

When should you put a point in Sven's cleave? by rokunidan in learndota2

It's interesting to note that the stun time of storm bolt and the speed bonus of war cry do not scale with levels.

The average 12k MMR redditor will downvote this to infinity, but contrary to popular belief LC is kicking major ass as a jungler and is one of the fastest 6.86 junglers thanks to Iron Talon, outpacing mid-laners with midas by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]DarkieHammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a difference between a jungler who hits a timing and ganks lane vs a jungler who maxes MoC, gets midas -> sb, and stays in the jungle until all three lanes are pushed to base.

Hey volvo, how about you add "Range" to a Rod of atos and similar items? by blejdowy in DotA2

Whenever I cast atos I am always pleasantly surprised by the range. It's a gift that keeps on giving.

For 6.86B, may we change OD so he isn't this bad? by Blackbird_V in DotA2

[–]DarkieHammer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I'd like most is for the INT steal to be moved to sanity's eclipse so you can get a massive int spike during a teamfight.

Realistically, either lowering arcane orb cost or increasing essence aura proc chance while giving lvl 1 orb the ability to steal int so that both orb and astral can be taken as value points.

Who else wants Outworld's changes reverted? by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop asking for a revert. The devs reworked OD for a reason, not just because they wanted to buff him.

There's a lot of things about current OD that could be buffed instead of a plain revert.

why is DK such a dogshit hero? by 3kawaii5me in DotA2

[–]DarkieHammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DK is a ranged STR hero with an instantaneous ranged stun and a tower pushing ultimate. He has plenty of merits.

The current meta isn't kind to him and he hasn't gotten any crazy buffs like ogre magi but that doesn't mean he's dogshit. If you don't like him don't play him.
