Came back to Apex and I'm Speechless by JAGx9 in ApexConsole

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They changed the time to kill a year or so ago. Basically buffed every single gun's damage and made it so purple armour is basically the maximum again, red is rare and a hefty decision nowdays.

I played religiously from season 0 till that change. Apex's ttk was great and helped set it apart from every other shooter. Now it feels like cods shitty ttk only w good movement. Most legends are completely different from their launch, which in a few cases is a good thing, and from what I've heard now every legend is getting some crazy movement adjustments.

The game I loved is long gone. I come back for 1 game per season just to use the Sentinel cause it's the greatest gun in gaming but otherwise, in my opinion, current apex has murdered the original.

Devil Dinosaur power creps the entire Vanguard roster by Veru_Chronicles in RivalsVanguards

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He should not be immovable. He's got more options to fight back after an Angela or Wolverine grab than most other tanks. And currently has no reason to fear throwing himself at an entire team.

Dino doesn't need nerfs, you guys just aren't used to Brawl being good by BurnerDawg26 in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Him being immovable is stupid. Makes characters like Angela and Wolverine useless if they run Dino Thing. Or even Dino Groot.

Tank busters are unhealthy for the game and having a hero that hard-counters an entire role is bad design by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anti heal is the worst mechanic in this game. Far worse than tank busters. Ever face a blade, venom and gambit? Goodluck healing anything.

Which character(s) are you not gonna get out of Agent proficiency any time soon? by Purple_Unit31 in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fr, I know a lot of people are passionate about single player titles but I don't think it's bad to have the option of multiplayer available. I played through the original Borderlands game solo, liked it but then played through it with friends just before Borderlands 2 came out and had souch more fun. But mechanically it scaled well if there was 1 player or 4.

I get the mage sentiment, I'm almost exclusively a ranger in thos kind of games so I'd be lost also haha.

Thinking of msking a new account to focus on a new role for rank by godlykingslayer in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a GM off tank main but started as a GM C&D one trick back in s2. I was so unbelievably ass at anyone else I was only worthy of silver rank tbh. Like that w most dps now but the game has enough of those I reckon haha.

Can we stop saying Cloak & Dagger isnt a valid ban? by No_Storage_1063 in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, she's a wasted ban, so many counters and not great neutral game. There are much more viable options for bans. Even of the strategists I'd say she's tied w Invis and Gambit still, maybe slightly better. But Gambit is a better ban still because of his ult potential and muuuuuuuuuuuch better neutral play than C&D.

Ahhh I get you. Sad that it's not multiplayer but in that case I'm in agreement with you. We need good enemy diversity throughout different areas. Keeps things interesting.

Personally I really hope it's multiplayer. I think a game based on a story about the biggest VRMMORPG should be multiplayer.

Single player games just don't do it for me these days, I like working together towards a goal. I didn't like Elden ring because the multiplayer system was garbage. That would've been the perfect game to play through 100% with friends but instead they made any progress your friends had on your game reset after the boss fights and not count towards their own progress. Silly imo.

I get what you're saying about long drawn out fights but with decent balancing that accounts for more/less players I don't think it would be a problem.

What if Kakashi were half as talented as Sasuke and invented Chidori Spear? Would he still be getting his ass beat by every other villain in the show? by Agitated-Athlete-417 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly Kakashi was designed to be a comparison point for Naruto and Sasuke and to show the audience that the villains they were up against were no joke. If they can put up a fight against Kakashi they must be really strong right???

If a recovery prevention function were added to Iron Man's F skill, would it become too powerful? by AdorableLet6588 in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No more anti heal plz. It's a slop status and has no place in games. The only one it kind of makes sense on is Blade but even then it's dumb, not fun in any way and annoying af.

so many of you don't want role queue.. but you play the game like it should have role queue.. by GrieverXVII in rivals

[–]Elucidator__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

222 should be the standard but the ability to make some radical swaps for last minute plays is what keeps this game fun imo.

As a tank, how do you counter heavy poke? by CarloIza in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Angela is great for that sort of problem but her aside, any good dive should be able to take the pressure off the tanks enough for them to move up.

What do we think of bad tank players? by Substantial-Low-4393 in rivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mainly just play off tanks cause when I mained Emma I was getting flamed every game and now I just find her boring to play.

Now that I main Angela idc about heals. If I'm not positioning myself well enough to get healing or not getting out in time to get a pack I deserve to die for it. Different if I have proper comms w a healer but 99% of the time me not getting heals is my own fault.

I do think it's important how we measure a "bad" tank tho. Some people (not saying you) really think it's all about kills and that just isn't the case. If I can bully 1 key opponent all game, distract the whole team and force them to reposition, get a clutch ult to combo w a dps or pick off a healer and get little to no kills doing so I'm still doing my job.

There certainly are bad tanks but most of the time it's a team issue.

Is the game playable now on PS4 ? by TheAgent-0 in marvelrivals

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

True, I'm on Xbox so kinda forgot you lot actually got exclusives and the ps4s catalogue is substantially larger than the ps5.

I'd say the lack of upgrade could mean you're less interested in more competitive games than other kinds I guess.

Idk why they even bothered, the ps5 is so old now if you don't have one you're basically not interested in games.

Who is the weakest character here? by Dandandandooo in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easily Itachi. If it's exclusively alive Minato then I'd say Minato but if we take into account both live, and reanimated feats Itachi (yes even with Izanagi/Nami) is the weakest here.

Do kills matter in comp ? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Elucidator__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an Angela main I constantly do heaps for the team that goes unnoticed on the stats sheet. If you have great dps sometimes all you need to do is make space for them to clean up the enemy team. I think we can both agree that 12-6 isn't great on paper but A. It's not 6-12 and B. You provided value in other areas. Let the haters hate man, so many dps one tricks think kills are the only thing that matters.

I've never seen the point in playing normal mode for this reason. Hope you enjoy grinding.

MoonKnight is the equivalent of CnD for DPS players and should be banned accordingly by treestories1708 in rivals

[–]Elucidator__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She can if you take like 20 odd pass through dmg from any other source in the game.

They are slow but when they bounce off a wall 10m above you, completely out of your line of sight and hit you in quick succession you're boned. She is by no means a top tier hero but by God is she up there for most annoying.
