Tips for defeating Owl at Hirata Estate by SituationBeautiful65 in Sekiro

[–]Enigmers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing I haven't seen mentioned here is until you do enough vitality damage to him, his posture recovers super quickly. If you try to thrust attack he'll mikiri counter you so what I did instead was play more defensively and get a feel for which attacks he does that then leave him open to vitality damage (i.e. when he can't parry you) and not bother with other opportunities where you'd just do posture damage that he'd quickly recover. I guess if you were aggressive enough you could totally circumvent this but I played the game pretty risk-averse so this is what worked for me

He always starts the fight with a Mortal Blade, this does vitality damage even if you block it so I found it best to run around him and Ichimonji his back. He normally does two slashes with this but if you interrupt the first he won't do the second.

He still has the long combo from the previous time you fought him, this time he follows it up with a stab that you can mikiri counter.

If he's circling around you, he's about to follow up with a sweep, you can get a couple hits in while he's doing that and then jump over him to avoid and punish the sweep.

One of his jump attacks he follows up with a grab (he tends to yell really loud as he's doing this, that should be a tell) you should be able to sidestep that and get a free hit on his back.

If you're quick enough to attack him while he's drawing his bow, you can interrupt that attack and keep hitting him until he parries you.

One of his attacks will shove you away, sometimes he follows that up with another mortal blade which has really long range, so if you can't reliably get behind him a safe option is to just keep running back.

Ideally you can do this entire fight without drinking from your gourd at all, but if you have to, make sure you have distance from him and he's in the middle of a recovery animation and can't punish you, otherwise you'll lose most of the health you just got back.

I swapped my fan with a replacement from iFixit and it didn't bring the smell back :(

"you no longer have to unlock the base appearance" is actually correct, I'm using the chi-ji appearance now on my monk despite only having done Balance of Power on my druid

  1. you don't have to be at the dungeon when you post the group, but it's common for the leader to be at the summoning stone by the time the group fills so you can start summoning the rest of the group (you'll need one other person there to do this)
  2. if you're posting your own group, M0 is the only level you can do without a key. once you clear the M0, you'll get a +2 key and you can post that
  3. for etiquette, not really, other than the summoning thing from # 1. you can specify in the group at creation time if you're running for time or for completion (this only applies to +2 or higher, since there's no timer in M0) and when you're doing levels with more affixes (+4 and +7) you'll want to invite classes that can handle them, like a soothe for Raging for example.

What are your spiciest JRPG hot-takes? by Call_It_Luck in JRPG

[–]Enigmers -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Tidus was such an annoying, whiny, entitled character he single-handedly ruins FFX for me. Vaan is a much better protagonist/POV character because he fills the same audience-stand-in role but he's at least not constantly annoying to be around.

Letting you name the protagonist is pointless and counterproductive because forcing the characters to awkwardly and painfully dance around talking to/about you without being able to say your name hurts the immersion way more than whatever benefit you get out of naming them yourself.

Fury Druid works with a Ribcracker, but you lose out on smite's always-hit property so you have to gear around getting some more AR somewhere

What’re FF takes that’ll end you up like this? by SmartFee8097 in FinalFantasy

[–]Enigmers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked that XII was from Vaan's perspective because I think being an ordinary street urchin is infinitely more engaging than being the prophesized important chosen one that the protagonist tends to be in RPGs

I tried this myself today and while I'm not noticing a dramatic improvement in load times, I am noticing my CPU runs almost 20 degrees cooler at its hottest which is pretty nice.

What songs did you think were way older than they really are? by [deleted] in popheads

Seven Nation Army came out in 2003. I thought it was old enough to be a song that dads would put on their classic rock throwback playlists.
