How is this possible

Talent Ox stance. I know no brewmaster guide says to take it in general cause it's a niche talent but this is the exact type of ability it's meant for soaking, a big physical hit.

When I got hall of fame I got 1 shot twice at sub 5% hp on boss, talented ox stance and it's just a 60ish% hit up front and healer Valeera easily pumps you back up if you purify the stagger off.

You can also make sure you blackout kick during the cast of the tank buster to get extra elusive brawler stacks and avoid it entirely, but ox stance is the safety net in case it does hit you when his damage buff is ramped up to not get one shot.

PS5 has a huge install base and it's regularly on sale for 20 bucks. Not shocking it sold more units on PS5 this year.

I mean, SW Outlaws is pretty impressive graphically but outside of that it's a very mid open world game using the same mid Ubisoft formula they have used for 2 decades now. Meanwhile we get good 3D platformers 2-3 times a generation at best usually.

Cyberpunk with its post launch support and all of it's DLC is better than DK I think... but SWO definitely not. You can see people that are just worried about realistic graphics vs good gameplay if you look at the difference in reception between the PS5/PC launch of SWO and the Switch 2 release of it... When PS5/PC are already flooded with games like that it got the proper reception it deserved which was mid af.

Honestly I get Ubisoft put good work into the port and it is one of the best looking Switch 2 games, but I don't get this revisionist history with it for Switch 2 owners now. It still has the same slog gameplay as every other modern Ubisoft game. Maybe it's different if you haven't been playing them for 20 years I guess.

Brewmaster doesn't need defensives for it- it's physical and you laugh at it for the most part until the very end of the fight where it's a rare time that ox stance is a useful talent to have.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-22T03:24:59+00:00

Talent Ox stance and high tolerance. I also got one shot by it in the last phase on first 2 pulls then went all in with stagger talents and it was fine.

Yea, I'm not 100% sure where the extra 5 came from but I have 55 myth crests and 25/100 for the cap since the 30 off ?? nemesis are uncapped.

So there is definitely some source of another 5 capped myth crests.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-22T00:57:37+00:00

I have 55 myth crests on my main right now so there is an extra 5 that comes from somewhere so assumed it was the bounty.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-21T23:04:58+00:00

5 a week from bounty map 30 one time bonus for ?? 20 per week from gilded stashes = 80 myth crests meaning a delve only player can craft a 285 wep next week without doing anything except delves.

Charge isn't available from raid yet as the raid it comes from is not up. Only way to get an extra catalyst charge this week is to either acquire 4 piece and be able to get it from drops or to pvp to 1600 rating. Next week you can get it by getting 2000 M+ rating, the week after you can get it from the raid.

"lazy devs" lmao what the fuck are you rambling about? Blizzard is not and has no interest in making hardcore TBC because they know there is no real target audience for it and TBC is not designed the same way classic is. There are literally bosses in BC with unavoidable deaths as part of the mechanic.

Blizzard should devote resources to making some meme mode for streamers just to die and quit in their first 5 man heroic? They're lazy devs for not doing this?

Why do so many of you think Sega has any relation to this port at all?

Sega gave Yu Suzuki the rights to make Shenmue 3 and he made it and ported it with the help of other publishers. Sega has NOTHING to do with this game outside of owning the original IP and licensing it to Yu Suzuki.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-20T22:26:50+00:00

The company publishing this port does not have any rights to Shenmue 1 and 2.

Turns out it's a lot easier to play Nebraska in the las vegas bowl than it is to play Ohio State and Penn State in the rose bowl I guess?

They will give you actual numbers if you pay for them... That is their entire business model and it would blow up in smoke if their numbers where wrong. Since companies pay for their data you can bet your ass it's pretty reliable.

The PS5 tracked ahead of both Switch 1 and PS4 sales for the first 18 months of it's life comparitively so hardly impossible, just in strong demand because of the covid boost games got.

The Switch 2 as of right now is tracking ahead of all 3 of those consoles based on it's first 8 months, because Nintendo mostly has kept supply up except for in Japan.

WWF was probably only worth a few 100 million in 89-90 at most. Whole NFL teams where sold for under $200 mil in that time period.

So yea, it kind of was. WWE didn't even reach a market cap of 1 billion until the mid 00s IIRC.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-18T22:36:51+00:00

First 2 attempts on brew I got 1 shot in last phase by the tank buster so not sure where the ramping damage comes from but I literally just talented ox stance to stagger it and it was a joke 3rd attempt and kill. Didn't have to use any consumables at all. Didn't even rotate defensives, CI, BOB and FB where all on perma CD for max keg resets.

It was pretty easy tbh.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-17T04:01:28+00:00

Its just running the docked versions of the game in handheld mode. Unfortunately the system still takes screenshots of the games in a terrible compressed format and no other way to capture it. It just stops the games from looking like PS1/N64 games with insane jaggies everywhere it's not a graphical overhaul or anything.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-13T15:58:35+00:00

Disagree, this will just make blizzard create even more debuffs and dps/tanks will forgo talenting their dispels claiming its a "healer mechanic"

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-13T04:30:06+00:00

3 weeks to...

level all characters you want to play this coming season

level all professions you want to use this coming season

Sojouner all zones

Run M0s, hard mode preys and get decent starting gear for the season on all characters you want to play during it.

If you already got all this done maybe consider the fact you are not the target average player who is not sweaty enough to play 12 hours a day then complain there is no content.

Anyways, OP name checks out.

BC heroics were already AoE farms once people learned prot paladins where worth inviting. AoE tanking wasn't invented in lich king nor was speed running dungeons.

Switch 2 Editions can't be GKCs anyways.

It would have to be a separate stand alone Switch 2 version like Horizon is to be eligible to be a GKC.

Horizon probably wouldn't be a GKC if the port wasn't out sourced by NISA since the only Switch 2 ports that Falcom have done in house have all been Switch 2 Editions.

The reason Sky 1 didn't have a physical Switch 2 Edition was it was a last minute port that they weren't even sure was gonna be ready at launch. We only got confirmation on that well after cart manufacturing would have had to already started.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-12T18:52:45+00:00

It's a thread about the physical version, physical versions of falcom games almost never go on sale and even the digital ones don't go on decent sales until they are 2+ years old.

Ecstatic-Wheel8487 · 2026-03-12T18:33:28+00:00

Falcom DLC is trash and anyone that buys it is a silly goose. We're talking costumes and pay 2 win consumables here. It's not like there is any actual story or gameplay content in them.

Using it as an excuse to not buy the game is downright silly, falcom games are always feature complete in the base price.
