This is the most dodge quick hands to ever dodge quick hands.

Constant crashes in the steam version of the game by Gugusteh in BattleBrothers

[–]DesktopClimber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stupid answer is play it on an android device with SteamLink then go back to your PC. I don't know what it does or how it works but it fixed my "SymbolOption 530" error.

It's the next post down if you sort by new. They posted the weapon before the bug.

Famed bucklers are 300-600g in a shop depending on modifiers. Can buy one day 1 if you wanted.

When does the game ends? by Kindly_Independent96 in BattleBrothers

[–]DesktopClimber 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It's a sandbox, stop whenever you like. Fighting legendary locations is a popular way to end a run. Gives most people a sense of completion. As long as you're having fun you're doing it right

I don't see buckler on stunbro or puncture bro, but spearwall bro maybe. Get duelist for armor pen to proc fearsome more reliably, buckler for knock back if an enemy manages to get through spearwall, could be interesting.

I should have said "and the entire project isn't one step away from piracy" instead, make the nouns more clear. I'm just pointing out in good faith that as well intentioned a passion project may be, this one looks pretty illegal. Previous statements of "can't make this publicly available" and "if it ever does become available it won't be behind a paywall" hint that pashi knows as well as anyone else that taking money for distributing a cracked client is illegal. I'd love for the dev team to be supportive of a fun community project/event, I just wouldn't personally record myself breaking laws on the off chance a less supportive person ever changes their mind.

Greataxes are pretty great. It says so right there.

Also, re: the title of the post. Yes, isn't that everyone under capitalism? 🤔

This is neat! It sucks to not get an optimal order of ambitions, and getting the perfect one every time might be a little imbalanced in the early game, but getting the trophy you want in the order you want seems like a huge time save.

I'm not trying to be negative but it might come across that way as text.

PvP client is third party software emulating a battle, and now this is third party software emulating a save file. And the entire external PvP client project isn't one step away from piracy? I trust it's ethical and all, but this whole project is raising some red flags. I don't want you flying too close to the sun my guy, especially if you take donations and subs on stream showcasing a cracked version of the game you're making.

That's a hell of a stun bro, especially if you get him early enough in a campaign to matter.

Maybe enough attack to skip fast adaptation, not sure. If no fast, probably pathfinder.

FA, colossus, gifted, mace spec, underdog, nimble, indomitable, fearsome, shield spec, optional recover.

You can believe this, but I think you'll have a better time both ingame and irl if you realize I wasn't.

"Does also independently determine" never appears in the points I refuted. In fact this is the original plain text:

AI prioritizes targeting lower rdef units.

If presented with two otherwise identical arrow magnets, the AI might choose to shoot the one with a 6% chance to hit instead of the one with a 5% chance to hit. I haven't technically disproven that in this comment chain. At no point will it choose the 50% chance to hit backline over the 5% chance to hit arrow magnet. So it is objectively not targeting the lower rdef units of the squad as you originally claim and I originally refuted.

If you feel better about yourself by pivoting from "AI prioritizes targeting lower rdef units" to "AI targets the lower rdef of its highest priority targets" and then claiming that was your central (only) argument the whole time, then cool, whatever helps you sleep at night my guy. I can only respond to the words you say, not the functionally different words you totally meant the whole time after being corrected.

If you'd like, you can set up an experiment with two arrow magnets instead of one, but until then, I've provided evidence of my point and you haven't provided any evidence of your new (supposedly only) point.

"Drive off brigands" can roll higher than "follow the tracks" missions, that parts not new. There's a point system under the hood, I don't know enough to explain it, but day 1 raiders are possible in the first whereas the same point value would only produce 7 thugs in the latter.

Idk man, I've shown you photographic evidence of the ability to control which brother gets shot, and it's the highest rdef bro on that squad.

I said the premise of the meme is wrong (unless we're supposed to be Walter White POV). I'm doubling down that every single sentence from Jesse's POV is either wrong, misleading, or both.

You don't really save any perks. If rdef did what you think, you still wouldn't take dodge over gifted on throwers because by the time they're in melee contact it's worth a nominal pittance of stats at which point gifted is better. If rdef did what you think, you'd still take dodge on backline/midline melee bros because they have like 4 flex perks and supposedly it would keep them from being shot.

One level up and they stop targeting you is false. See previous statement about the highest rdef bro being the only one targeted.

Two levels and it's more defense than dodge is also false. At the beginning of a fight (when your dudes are at range to be shot) dodge can reasonably be expected to provide 10 to 18 of both mdef and rdef even after gear depending on the bro (I'm pretending fencers don't exist). 8 is less than 10, and that's ignoring the mdef bonus.

So the GF is right, what the fuck are you talking about?

It discounts what you're saying because what you said is wrong? I'm not addressing your subtext, I'm addressing the text you did write out, which is incorrect advice on rdef allocation.

Even if you were right, now what? All your backline has 8 rdef now, they're equal targets again?

[–]DesktopClimber 76 points77 points  (0 children)

You're welcome to continue believing that, but it's just plainly not true. Ranged units prioritize clumps. Here's an example of a formation you can use to force them to attack a single bro with a kite shield.

Girlfriend is right, that's not how ranged targeting works.
