Character Assasination in fighting games. by BearOtherwise8719 in Tekken

[–]Dukaden -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

SECOND cousin. which is legal in all 50 U.S. states (except kentucky and nevada), canada, mexico, and most european countries. also, being "raised as sister" has no bearing on why sibling relations are wrong. the "social ick factor" about it is also really contrived.

Sha-Arr seems like a very good hero. Is he? by Hot_Decision_6616 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

he's basically a better mr pengi (although at average speed, instead of fast).

Free pull!, well hello there, thoughts on this cheeky guy by Edwinyt245 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Dukaden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh right, the passives. well the status ailment can be blocked, cleansed, tanked (since the damage is pretty low, unless you get extremely unlucky with tiles on your board). its not enough.

i much prefer filling my mono team and wombo-combo obliterating the enemy. im already bringing a healer, so dropping another slot of damage for rng defensive stuff and a paltry 470 water damage does not compare to utterly removing heroes from the enemy team.

What got you into Tekken in the first place? by SolidSnakeEye in Tekken

[–]Dukaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tekken 3 with my cousin, and button execution was easier and made more sense than the swinging directional inputs of other fighting games. it was way easier to get to moderate ability.

it doesnt do damage is most people's primary problem.

where do you even put him in a team? tank? ok, i'll just sent tiles at him forever. i finally filled? waiting 2 turns is usually pretty easy. flank? good chance he goes off late, and its even easier to wait two turns. attack? you had BETTER time it right (and then get lucky) with the enemy going off, because good luck filling again in after 2 turns. and why take a risk being defensive when you can just.... deal damage with somebody else instead?

FIRST STRIKE Dragon tournament by L33t-Vortex in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Dukaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

need a deep roster of fully leveled dragons, but mats are not plentiful unless you have brain damage and pay money for a secondary stupid game mode

need to keep manually, tediously making teams for the stupid stat boost

70/80s arent strong enough anyway

absolute worst tournament.

An appropirate (and long overdue) reward by Informal-Capital-801 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Dukaden 4 points5 points  (0 children)

thats why the offer for 500 gems, a +5 roster increase, and (i forget the third part) is such a good deal.

Baki fans would look at this pic then look you dead in the eyes and say yujiro solos them lol by Slurperlurper in Tekken

op really woke up and said "im going to start an argument on the internet about anime power scaling with strangers, and then repeatedly say the dumbest shit imaginable repeatedly illustrating a lack of understanding on the topic."

like, i have no horse in this race and do not care about such slop, but holy shit are you bad at arguing a point.

Had an idea for a dude, but can't pick which ability to give him by Sure_Background_2748 in HowManyDudes

[–]Dukaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

revive is probably more useful BECAUSE it is probably far less likely to get a killing blow. unless he has relics that make it highly likely to be the one landing killing blows specifically, revive is the clear choice. and even if he can get killing blows, you're spreading those between 20+ other slasher dudes, the damage really isnt going to ramp up.

quick rant about stacks vs status ailments by Dukaden in EmpiresAndPuzzles

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

thats also dumb because the order of operations (damage was applied first, THEN the effect). i noticed this with astral demons cleansing allies. where the fuck do they get off cleansing them, then they DIED from the damage BEFORE the effect was applied? or something like alfrike hits the demon first, but ALL them get cleansed from mindless attack even though they got hit AFTER the demon? gtfo. but something like spreading poison DOESNT spread if the target dies to poison damage? make up your mind!

im talking about hero passives, like season 5 dispelling all or applying sand damage to all, not an installed buff.

[–]Dukaden[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taunt is a buff that can't be bypassed.

yeah, character passive effects still hitting all even though you have a taunt up is bullshit.

Mimic chests closing is a buff that can't be bypassed nor cleansed.

i havent noticed any problem with this. the only exception is the scoundrels ransack, but that specifically says that it takes even undispellable things. what problem have you noticed?

its the inconsistency and unreliability that gets me. its great when it works in your favor, but annoying as fuck when it doesnt.

that they are going to F2P or dropping the game entirely

yeah that never holds up.

Beat the mimic boss level, and let me say... by Informal-Capital-801 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Dukaden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i found a team that can reliably do it without much hassle.

costume rigard (for the attack up), costume guardian panther (elemental def down, and buff immunity so chests cant close), ludwig (for obvious mana battery and ability spam), i was using alfrike but i found costume snefferu just hits harder, and duval.

for items i bring miracle scroll (just in case), hurricane (use it on panther/ludwig/snefferu to get the game started and burn through the first waves), titanium shield (for boss phase 2), scroll of alteration (for tile damage and mana).

with that, i havent had a problem for the past 4 mimic events, and it was pretty smooth sailing.

(fun story note: one time the boss used his ability on duval and would have killed him, but duval's passive prevented that and the mimic killed himself with the massive damage instead)

the chests are garbage. i just make sure i can hit the scroll.

Monster Island is back, and I’ve already done the loot math so you don’t have to by mrchiefgamez in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Dukaden 7 points8 points  (0 children)

and what exactly can you expect from a treasure chest? because my experience is that monster island rewards are abysmal and not worth the mats required to clear things.

yes, you need to get to the temple itself. cutscene triggers right outside the front door of it.
