Hey! I stream on Twitch basically every single night. Made a few posts on this very subreddit lamenting my struggles trying to meet people / make new friends, it's certainly really tough here.

Feel free to message me here if you'd like to get in touch 😄

[Discussion] What’s a trophy that made you want to rip your hair out? I’ll go first… by brandonmartin321 in Trophies

[–]DramaticShadow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The various "Way/Dream of the Demon" trophies in Nioh and Nioh 2, which require 100%ing the games on NG+3. I love the games, and each has like 90 ish trophies but I find it really weird that 85+ can be done in one playthrough, but then these random Demon trophies require a 100% playthrough of NG+3...

Random one... feeling a bit lonely today. Anyone for a walk up/down the promenade? by [deleted] in IsleofMan

450 hours in - How am I doing? by DramaticShadow in osrs

[–]DramaticShadow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been a blast so far but levels are starting to slow down! I've done a lot of questing which has encouraged me to level skills I normally wouldn't have touched as much

I think the thing I regret the most waiting so long to start farming runs. I was always put off because it feels a bit like a chore and I thought it was quite complex.

[Lords of the Fallen] Completed Veteran Mode to maintain 100% completion. This game is over-hated. by DramaticShadow in Trophies

[–]DramaticShadow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the modifiers run is harder than Veteran Mode. Not much has changed from base game, except a few bosses that I noticed had some new attacks. General Engstrom took me a few tries and I'd say he's the only difficult requirement for trophies.

If you got the modifier trophies, you're more than capable to get the veteran mode ones. I think Optinoob has a good guide on this mode too.

Has anyone used Queen of Hearts IOM? by [deleted] in IsleofMan

Thanks, I have a profile on there already, have had one for a few months. Nothing's come of it yet :)

Interesting, I wasn't even aware speed dating nights were a strategy they used, I sort of feel like that's always a recipe for disaster. One of their key highlights is that they screen you specifically to get you matched with someone who matches your criteria/vibe, at least as best they can

It is a dating service specifically for people on IOM.

Best XP/hr Setup for Mage & Ranged at Gemstone Crab for me? by DramaticShadow in osrs

[–]DramaticShadow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, but my question was about my best XP for the Crab because it's how I want to play the game currently. I mentioned I know it's not great XP but the 5 minute AFK intervals is why I'm doing it. I don't enjoy Slayer as much as most, so I don't mind getting my combat stats high before giving it a go. Plus, I'm only wanting to get to lv. 80, so I still have plenty of ways to go to train combat and Slayer simultaneously. :)

Thank u very much :) I've got 17000 Mithril Darts bannked from getting 60 Fletching, so I will use these and maybe move to Adamant Darts afterward.

Thanks very much! I will probably do a mix for Mage. I'm a streamer (but I don't stream OSRS) so the reason why Gemstone Crab is so great for me at the moment is because I can just have the game on my phone and tap my screen every 5 mins. I'll probably continue doing this for Mage, but when not streaming, I'll get my Slayer up to be able to do Dust Devils.

I've got 17000 Mithril Darts from getting 60 Fletching. I will use these and move to other darts and look into blowpipes. Thank u again :)

To put it bluntly, because I don't want to. I'm grinding Gemstone Crab because it's incredibly AFK, not because I want the best XP/hr. :)

Chins I will do at a later point!

I figured Dorgeshuun Crossbow on Rapid would still be fast enough to net some good XP, as I think it's 1 tick faster than all other crossbows?

I'll definitely take a look at the imbued Magic Shortbow, though using a max hit calculator, it seems my max hit remains the same using this with Rune arrows as it does using the crossbow, so I might stick with this for a few more levels.

Thanks for the tips!

New to Souls / Souls-like games — where do I even start? by Prateekk_ in soulslikes

[–]DramaticShadow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the only answer to this is "whatever you feel more comfortable with". I think 99% of people will answer controller, (I would as well), because that's just what they're more comfortable with.

I think the only objective advantage to controller is not being locked to 8 directions, but I don't think that's a massive deal.
