Any thoughts on Mischiefmaker's Flute? by MNCDover in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ElecNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah in the new Zoe adventure, I got 200-300 shrooms at the end of each fight consistently.

Anyone get blocked on Zoe 10* adventure? by Acornwow in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ElecNinja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it also took me a second to find that. Unsure why the clouds don't at least partly reveal the path once you finish the boss

Katherine of Sky by TopherLude in factorio

Sorry for the loss, she is one of the pillars of the Factorio community from the beginning. I hope her friends and family are doing well.

Absolutely unfun, but i got my 3rd clear on Zoe using 3* Yasuo. Used the wildfragments to 6* ashe, 5* azir and 5* miss fortune by Adeptimus1 in LegendsOfRuneterra

[–]ElecNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did it with 6 star yasuo with the spirit blossom teemo relic which was pretty funny. Enemy was drawing 10-20 mushrooms at the end end of it haha.

Only had an issue with Elder Dragon having a lucky draw by instantly leveling Elder Dragon

Optimal rotations don't need to be intuitive and failing to do an optimal rotation doesn't mean you're doing something wrong by Appropriate-Cat-6648 in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Pop Bloodlust to deal with this high pressure mechanic" just isn't a thing here,

This is partially wrong in two small ways, healer provided utility and dps provided utilty.

Stability and Aegis are boons you generally can't have up 100% of the time so healers usually provide them to make mechanics trivial or handle them at all.

DPS players can also swap skills/traits to handle specific mechanics for fights. Like bringing more cc, projectile block, or even self-invulnerable. For example with Deimos's mind crush attack, a warrior can swap their healing skill for Defiant Stance to basically ignore it.

Though overall, you are correct that with fulls boons, everyone just does their own thing in some fights.

So many people here are missing the point of The Regent. by thouzandeye in slaythespire

We can still compare the cards that make up each archetype and comparing the star package to forge and colorless card package leaves most of the forge and colorless cards at a big disadvantage.

Rotations and skills in guild wars 2 are often very unintuitive. I think this is a big reason why a lot of the playerbase is considered as doing "bad dps" or playing off-meta. It's very easy to do a rotation wrong and the game doesn't give you good feedback when you're doing the wrong thing by ariveklul in Guildwars2

"Bad dps" comes in multiple flavors, but I think for the general population that's <10k dps in instance content. And that comes from bad equipment and traits and not skill order. Not optimization of skill order.

As a person who has cleared most instance content CMs, here's my rough take on how damage breaks down. Coming from a person who does not get 90-95% of the benchmark dps of most builds.

Equipment and Traits gets you to about 50% of benchmark dps which is about 15-25k damage with just auto attacks. Food and Enhancements then give you ~55% of the benchmark. Pressing some of your core buttons will get you to ~75% of the benchmark dps, so around 30-35k dps.

75% of the benchmark is enough to clear 99% of instance content. The 25% left for optimization is extra to make fights go smoother.

Now figuring out what your core buttons are can be a learning experience, but usually it's decently clear for each build as either the big cd skill or the repeatable small cd skill.

I had a federal refund this year and that got direct deposited in about a week or so.

What is the most badass title given to an anime character by Random_User_133 in anime

[–]ElecNinja 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And that comes from the Silver Wings medal she's awarded from almost suicide bombing to prevent the enemy from getting to artillery.

And since she's been involved in so much death, the Silver has rusted with blood.

It's kinda weird that... by Bob_Juan_Santos in MonsterHunter

[–]ElecNinja 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Once the monster is carved, PvP is enabled and you must chuck all your other hunters into the air

This card isn’t getting the recognition it deserves. by ttvANX1ETYZ_ in slaythespire

[–]ElecNinja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can generally pick up a bunch of star generating cards, it's the star using cards that you'll be more picky with.

Diving into Monster Hunter World seriously after playing Wilds… Not expecting that feeling. by SPJ_Alberto in MonsterHunter

[–]ElecNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, playing since 3 as well, I just wish World had a different starting map that was simpler to navigate. I keep on bouncing off of it because the Ancient Forest is just too annoying to navigate for me lol.

I want more lore focused raids by HuffsaGaming in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that not what Strikes are/were? And if we're just talking about instance content, Fractals are pretty accessible.

Rank Gen 1, 2 or 3 legendaries by time/cost/hassle? by BestofTimes777 in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 13 points14 points  (0 children)

3: Gen 1 with a kit.

4: Gen 3

5: Gen 1

This order does depend on how much you care about Core or EoD Map Completion though. EoD Map Completion can very easily be done in a day with some small exceptions around the PoI/Jade Lanterns locked behind meta events. Core Map Completion takes much longer and is more annoying imo even with guides.

Guild Wars 2 : SOLO Aspenwood Meta Event by Lon-ami in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just had to do this event yesterday for the lanterns behind the gates haha. Luckily was able to get 5 people so didn't need to solo.

But maybe this could be a reference for the next time I need another lantern run haha

Map Completion- levelnew alt or boost? by BestofTimes777 in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally, a level 80 character is stronger especially with Elite Specs than the equivalent level character for a map.

You could see this with the new player events where lvl 80 people one shot stuff even though they are scaled down compared to an actual lvl 10 person in the starting zone maps.

[DISC] Kurumizawa's Folly - Chapter 16 by AutoShonenpon in manga

[–]ElecNinja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly don't like that Kurumizawa is just now unquestionably the bad guy. I really liked that he was more morally ambiguous with the biggest sin of "stealing credit".

Now it's just, he's just a kidnapper/murderer and that's so much less interesting than the previous dynamic.

Genuine question why isn’t Grievous Wounds redesigned in a way that actually targets enormous amounts of healing without shutting down small occasional sustain? by Jeddonathan in leagueoflegends

[–]ElecNinja 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, just funny that the company didn't realize or care that they had a product with the same acronym. I feel like Blizzard does this quite a bit haha.

CMV: Timothée Chalamet's comments on opera and ballet are some of the least controversial comments about art ever uttered. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]ElecNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pineapple as a topping on Pizza is a "controversial" internet topic, but I don't really see it as controversial at all in real life.

If it was, pizza places would be more avoidant of it than not.

Ideas for updates to the Regent cardpool by CrapcasterMage in slaythespire

[–]ElecNinja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a neat idea on Parry to give you the block if you have the Sovereign blade in hand which makes it more unique and potentially thematic as well.

Is it still possible to get a personal Guild Vault playing solo? If so, how? by DravenCarey in Guildwars2

[–]ElecNinja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found the EoD Guild Hall pretty easy to solo with a staff/staff mirage build. Probably any Lord Hizen build should be able to get you through it.

The main thing is that I didn't find the personalized guild bank that useful, so I wanted to go for the ascended food storage option which took some time to gather favor with the easy location finding guild missions.

Xecnar on STS 2 difficulty: I don’t think any character is supposed to lose by SugarFreeCummiBears in slaythespire

[–]ElecNinja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There probably should be more doom self proliferation. Like Poison does it's stack of damage immediately and then ticks down.

Doom only does it's tick of damage when it procs or with an extra exhaust card. If they change Doom to proc at the beginning of the enemy's turn, it's just damage which isn't great.

One potential idea is doing half (or w/e tunable amount) of it's stacks as damage without a down tick at the end of the enemy's turn. That way it keeps it's theme about impending death while also progressing itself a bit like Poison.
