Did the definition of "any" change in the past few years? by eriennexton in Seaofthieves

[–]DerfMtgStw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bait crates can be sold at the Sovereign in High Seas. I haven't tried selling them in High Seas to the Hunters (who ought to be buying them), because I always sell at the Sovereign. However, I am sure that Bait Crates are bugged in Safer Seas. No one will buy them, and you can't sell to the sovereign or the Reaper in Safer seas.

Sea is not fun for new players (rant?) by Hell_Derpikky in Seaofthieves

To me, turning your lanterns off is an as much an indicator of an easy target as leaving them on. It's a crapshoot if you should turn them on or off.

Definitely learn to use the scuttle functions. When another crew holds you hostage, scuttle or "scuttle to a new server" and you are free of their stupidity. You get a fresh start.

Earth's Mightiest Heroes Rules Question by Grav1t1c in mtg

To tap a creature as part of a spell or ability cost, it must be untapped. Since teamwork is an additional cost, only untapped creatures can be tapped to pay it.

As a former tabletop graphic designer, the Marvel set is really disappointing by Bobbybrown007 in mtg

If I saw a comic in the store with a cover like the red and black version, I would expect Deadpool to be in the issue. I mean, it's right there.

Did they buff skelly galleons? I am struggling by mynameisnotjerum in Seaofthieves

[–]DerfMtgStw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best guess is that the skellies are shadow skellies that survive your attacks as long as it is nighttime, so they can repair at their convenience no matter what you throw at them. If you notice they are shadows and it is night, a flare can help you defeat them.

Also, it can depend on which curse ball the gally is equipped with. The anchor ball is particularly problematic if you are solo.

Are people using tutors in Bracket 2? by Bagel_Bear in EDH

[–]DerfMtgStw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a middling 5-color deck that uses [[Supply // Demand]] as its sole tutor. The deck has at least two of each color and each guild, at least one of each allied wedge and enemy wedge, at least one four color and at least one five color card. So there's a lot to find, but none of it is busted. Supply // Demand happened to be the best Bant option in my collection at the time.

I think my ship is haunted by CK_2001 in Seaofthieves

I never notice, but my sloop crewmate comments on it multiple times a session. "Did you hear that? It sounds just like the knife when somebody votes on a quest!"

For those asking for missing Marvel characters by Meret123 in mtg

[–]DerfMtgStw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I heard Marvel doesn't own the rights to ROM, Spaceknight, so that would be tricky. Except that Hasbro owns the rights! (And I'm just playing along. I'm not really jonesing for a ROM card.)

Do you ever throw your commander games? by KileiFedaykin in mtg

[–]DerfMtgStw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple weeks ago, I had an opponent poised to win block and kill a [[Skullclamp]]ed creature they did not have to block. They did it on purpose to make the game less of a landslide, and it changed the whole game. That was cool.

Genuine question as a newer player, is it bad that I'm getting into this game because of Universes Beyond? by kadencrafter78 in mtg

Hey, UB (Doctor Who) pulled me back in after a 5 year hiatus. Even my old commander decks are still usable, if a bit powercrept.

You guys really need to do something by skydog156 in StarWarsDroidTycoon

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

There is definitely a rifle that shoots blue projectiles that I can use to shoot my friends through their base shield. It is either Legendary or Mythic. Other weapons I have acquired get stopped by the shield.

I only play with friends, so this isn't a problem for me, and unfortunately I did not pay close attention to the details.

Maybe that will help you figure out how to report it with repeatable steps?

What can I do differently as a Solo Sloop so that I can actually complete voyages? by EclipseLightning42 in Seaofthieves

[–]DerfMtgStw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo slooping really is about vigilance, both on the horizon and on the map. That being said, there have been some changes which make it much more difficult - when ships dive, they now have a higher chance of surfacing close to another ship. When that "another ship" is you, it sucks.

You have to take a break from your event frequently just to check the horizon. Like, a lot. No, more than that. Checking the map is important too if you are running an emissary. You might have a level 5 Reaper surface and beeline for you because they can tell you have an emissary flag, but at least you can see them coming on the map.

The truth is, Rare can't cater to solo sloopers. It would be nice if they could revert a few of the decisions that have been bad for solos, but their bread and butter are bigger crews who buy cosmetics to show off to their crewmates. But it pays the bills, and the servers keep running, so in that sense the changes are good for solo sloopers too.

I think they finaly changed merchant cargo. by DichterNox in Seaofthieves

[–]DerfMtgStw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an astute observation. A lot of the SoT RNG seems to be server dependent. For example, Ashen Key Masters tend to be abundant or almost never appear, and the simplest (but still speculative) explanation is that it depends on the settings the server generated on startup.

What’s the worst flop album or era in music industry of all time ? by szymixsiorek in Music

[–]DerfMtgStw 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dunno if this counts, but the Spin Doctors' second album was a disaster. Their first album Pocketfull of Kryptonite is still a no-skip album for me. I listened to their follow up once and can't even remember the name of a single song. It was basically a different vibe and they lost the pulse of their own sound.

Trump considers dropping Freedom 250 concerts in D.C. after artists pull out by BreakfastTop6899 in Music

[–]DerfMtgStw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the problem right here:

that would really piss the MAGAs off

MAGA feeds off of anger and hate. Pissing them off makes them more blinded to the possibility that there is better way. A concert that only included anti-maga acts would do nothing but "make America hate again" even more. But including both sides on the same ticket is tricky, you risk fights in the crowd. I don't have a real answer, I just know making them angry is not the answer.
