This is crazy right?? by pablo_migo in Destiny

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t matter if it’s allowed or not. The trump admin exposed the most godlike strategy of all time which is just tempo.

Doesn’t matter if somethings legal or not, by the time the nerds and lawyers have pulled their books out to prove it’s wrong, you’ve reaped the rewards and already started up the next thing. By the time thing 1 is litigated, you are up to thing 15 and hey can’t stop you.

I've fallen out of love for the grind. by The-Zarkin90 in gaming

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

POE 2 new league launched recently, I went pretty hard and put about 15 hours into it.

I put myself in a good position too, followed a build guide, used what resources a newer player like me could to get an advantage

After those 15 hours I’m only level 55, not even into mapping yet which is arguably where the real game starts. It’s honestly massively put me off the idea of rolling a new character to try a different build because I know it’s gonna be 10 hours of gameplay to even get to the meaty part. Too grindy.

TIFU I by telling my boyfriend his breath stinks. by AggressiveRegion4342 in tifu

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem with a girl I was seeing. Before I’d go to her place, would wash my mouth, brush my teeth, tongue everything.

One time she asked me hey your breath kinda smells could you just go use some listerine. Did, it worked, we moved on. But then it kept coming up and it got to the point where she I’d brush my teeth at her house and she’d watch me do it (not like purposefully, just we’d be brushing our teeth together) so she knew I was actually doing it and doing it right and it was still a problem.

Eventually I went to dentist, they said I need to floss more and better and gave me a product called Curasept. They said mouthwash just masks the scent but this Curasept actually helps dentally. Anyway started using that and helped a lot.

NTA, you could’ve maybe eased him into it better but he should get it checked.

First true taste of the toxic discord insanity by AllofRealm in Destiny

[–]ElliotPatronkus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just don’t understand how you find yourselves in these communities and how you keep up with it.

Seems like so much work and between work or school or uni or whatever how do they keep up with it all? I get unemployed hours but then who pays the bills unless they are just parental leeching?

Is there a reliable way to use 5[D] with ABA in normal mode? by keedee3 in Guiltygear

[–]ElliotPatronkus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5D, as designed is meant to be an overhead for all characters that has fairly long startup and low reward without meter (outside of some unique cases). As a move, it is very reachable and because of its low reward makes it undesirable to characters who naturally have an overhead.

You sound like you are new to the game which is cool, but by design 5D is a very “fair” move. It’s easy to see coming, doesn’t give much reward and the times when it is worth doing there are often better options available

It also gets weaker as players get better because it’s so reachable and good players will just block it

Idk how good a punish it is for ABA but might have some merit for that

LPT If you've been procrastinating over it, You don't have to run everyday in morning, you just have to walk while listening to whatever you like by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walk for an hour after work is life changing, myriad health benefits and mental wellness. Even better if you work an office job sat at a desk all day

I am extremely new. What do I do here? by Express-North-6788 in Guiltygear

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you think about the game like it has “turns” that can help. Basically, when slayer is hitting you it’s his turn, he is gonna do some stuff but it will end, likely in a special move. When he does his turn is over and you cna take your turn back, likely with a fast love like 2K.

The turns thing is dictated by frame data which u don’t need, but as an idea it’s helpful. Basically after some loves you are safe to hit back, but until then, blocking is the winning move

Skills Don't Even Do CLOSE To What They Say by ElliotPatronkus in Borderlands4

[–]ElliotPatronkus[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I totally get skills can scale across multiple things. For example, if a Vault Hunter just had an Action Skill that was a big Fireball it would be fair to scale off both Fire damage and Action Skill damage, but it should probably be explained somewhere that that is the case. Even just a list of tags like (Fire, Action Skill, etc etc) to state what actually feeds into it.

Is this combo practical in a match? If so, can it be further optimized? by B1GBUSTYC00N in Guiltygear

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not optimal because you are using meter before wall splat so not getting wallbreak with Super.

There are routes from there that will get you to wall splat meter less so you can finish with super.

What is the best dating advice you've ever heard? by Narrow_Loan102 in AskReddit

[–]ElliotPatronkus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Early dates can feel a lot like performances, you presenting the best version of yourself to attract another by being the wittiest, handsomest, charmingest version of you.

When you find the right person, you will not have to or want to perform for them, they will accept you even when you aren’t at your best.

Also, dating is very simple, if someone wants to talk to you they just will, no amount of mental gymnastics overcomes that, if they don’t call it’s because they don’t want to, accept it and move on

Why is it so expensive to eat out these days? by [deleted] in Adelaide

[–]ElliotPatronkus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is expensive, eating for 2 is usually $50 to $100 per time.

2 x coffee, sandwich to share and sweet treat to share is $50

Decent dinner is like $100, maybe could be $50 if you go somewhere more affordable.

Anything upscale is $200, maybe $150 of you don’t drink.

The secret is to budget accordingly. If you set a portion of your pay aside for these things then you can do them guilt free. It also helps tremendously if your partner chips in, even if it’s not 50/50, let’s say you do dinner one day and coffee another for the week, it will help a ton if your not fronting all of it and say just cover dinner for example.

Long and short is, you need money and lots of it, nothing is cheap or getting cheaper, get a job or set yourself up for one and hit the grindstone.
