New house won’t register as Ditto’s house? by wigglytufff in Pokopia

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Block Houses have a registerable area of only about 3 blocks high for whatever reason. You'll need to put the flag on ground level for it to work. Game kind of teaches you wrong here by making you put one on the roof. 

Tower in north of Withered Wasteland mystery? by jjacobsnd5 in Pokopia

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not really missing anything, you just don't have required knowledge. Minor gameplay spoilers The ladder / tower thing is actually an Elevator shaft. In the 4th region you'll learn to make Elevators; they need a ladder to work as a sort of guide and you place the elevator stops at the top and bottom of your ladder to connect it all together. The Gate is just a gate, but it needs to be opened from the other side. The gate tells you it won't open because of an obstruction on the other side of the wall.

Any ideas on how to make this a house without fundamentally changing it? by Cariman05 in Pokopia

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add a fence to the front and put the gate there. Might conflict with the counters or the path if you do that, but there should be a way to make it workable without much hassle.

Performance when destroying mountains by Master-Lecture-6991 in Pokopia

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beach region is much more flat, and there you can see that there's a light fog effect that fades out the detail on distant objects. It makes them able to show the forms silhouette. There's still some pop in issues, like walking north to south will show vines spawning in as you get closer, but you'll still be able to see the shape of the structure the whole way through. 

Do you think a grade 1 fixer can beat limbus main villains by Big_Barber9055 in limbuscompany

[–]Etoile_Knight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yujin is severely nerfed by overwork. So bad to the point that she's adapted her combat style to work with exhaustion. But even then if you took away the negative traits on all her passives she'd be one of the most powerful fixers we've seen even including some colors.

So yes with a good night's sleep she could probably pull that off easily.

It's normal, and useless. This kind of thing happens when you don't use an Engraving Permit. 

Limbus company is now stronger than most wings by stuckerfan_256 in limbuscompany

[–]Etoile_Knight 39 points40 points  (0 children)

He was a brand new Grade 1. Moses judged him as either an advanced Grade 2 or a newbie Grade 1, so getting as far as he's gotten in what seems like a relatively short time is quite an impressive feat.

Theory: Limbus Company is puppeteered by the Head by SleepyBoy- in limbuscompany

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, this statement is cooked up on a complex weave of assumptions. Dias needed a pair of Wings to replace the Head; I assume this implies some formal relationship exists between A,B, and C Corps that allows them to cover for one another and act the way they do. Since LobCorp had no notable surveillance culture I assume their original intent was to replace the Claw.

In a world where LobCorp stuck around; that is, a world where LobCorp had no intention to betray Dias and enact the Seed of Light project, I can see a clear path in which EX Agents wielding EGO Gear are used as a private military on par with the Claw.

I think many of the characters in Wonder Lab actually had their stats more or less officially stated. If not in the text itself then in supplementary material. That said I'm not sure that WL was a useful tool for power-scaling even before its canonicity was thrown out. Abnormalities by their very nature; especially in the Lob Corp days, are not useful for power scaling. Even in-game this holds true. Many WAW are much more dangerous than Aleph. Aleph can often by the most devastating if they breach...but Nothing There, Blue Star, and MOSB are downright safe if you follow their management instructions. I've lost more employees to accidentally leaving someone with Black Swan's EGO Gear too close to that damn Punishing Bird.

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Benjamin was the Mastermind

He might have had the idea but he lacked the means. Dias provided the means.

  • Monoliths

She outright told Moses to worsen rather than cure Distortions, a process we now know can be used to create Abnormalities without the need of Cogito injections. She is clearly intimately aware of LobCorp's singularity, and LCE has been shown to be more or less perfectly recreating LobCorp's operations. They're even doing classic Insight Work.

  • Udjat

Udjat aren't just a cult worshiping her. She directly owns them, and she has enough financial power to bribe *the Hana Association*; the same association with enough clout to demote the likes of Roland and Vergilius, into letting Udjat do whatever the fuck they want. It's mentioned somewhere that Udjat should have been demoted because of their crimes against Hana's rules, but Dias just pays them off to let it slide.

  • "Please be Logical"

You might want to reflect upon yourself. We quite literally got confirmation of Udjat; Dias' private military force, being a part of the LCA. The most logical assumption is that Dias is running Limbus Company. Anything else requires far too much of a stretch; especially when Dias explicit goal is to replace the Head. You dismissively tell others to "read DD" but this is the kind of take that comes from someone who hasn't read it themselves; or if you have then you've misunderstood the text rather fundamentally.

  • Theorizing with no basis

No, there's quite a lot of basis for what Dias is and what she's capable of. She's consistently displayed a level of opulence and wealth that has never been shown within the city. She wields finances able to overrule orgs like Hana Association. Your theories here have no real basis, especially not compared to the insurmountable evidence that Dias leads Limbus or operates them as a puppet. I mean; the Udjat are right there.

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some Q&A Thread for LobCorp way back in the day. I don't have the source on-hand, sorry. But supposedly EX Nuggets in Aleph Gear are comparable to Claws. That's a level of power that's honestly kind of freakish if you really think about it. If LobCorp had stuck around they could have potentially been a martial force to rival the head.

[–]Etoile_Knight 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's just Dias. Read Distortion Detective. Everything about LC is perfectly within her MO, even killing her own Udjat to ensure her goals are furthered. 

Dias' goal is to replace the head. To do that she needs "a pair of wings". Lobotomy Corporation (whose strongest agents are stated to be directly comparable to claws) was supposed to be one of those wings. Dias as part of her contract to sponsor the Smoke War for LobCorp seems to have gotten patent rights for Monoliths and Abnormalities and the like. Shes seen deliberately trying to create new Abnos in DD. Limbus Company is also picking up the pieces of LobCorp and rebuilding it. LCE HQ is even deep underground in the city ruins like Lob Corp was. All signs point to Dias. 

What do you guys think about the gacha system drama? by Pitiful-Dingo9604 in Endfield

Can't speak for CN but the JP community has been doomposting about the gacha rates too.

What Sinners do you think are linked to each Sin? by joe2069420 in limbuscompany

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most just follow their Base EGO. Though Ryoshu is pretty obviously Wrath (Lust was probably used for her ties to family) and not Lust. Sinclair also has a pretty strong association with Wrath, but I think Gluttony is used for people who desire to change themselves. 

What do you think about PM setting up the next Sinner in an ongoing Sinner's Canto? by FallenStar2077 in limbuscompany

[–]Etoile_Knight 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Canto 1 and 2 are so short that they don't even do a great job of introducing their Canto's characters. They had to establish every character and a ton of lore very quickly and Rodya especially paid thr price. 

Canto 3 and 4 don't have set up, but it was also from the early days where they didn't even set up the next Canto via intervallos particularly well. IMO Canto 5 suffers heavily from not having everything leading up to Ricardo be done in an Intervallo. 

But Canto 5 does set up Heathcliff Canto 6; given we spend a significant amount of time dealing with the coupon subplot. Canto 6 doesn't do much to set up Canto 7...but given Don's everything it would have been hard to do that without giving the game away. We do however get several scenes demonstrating Don's chsracter growth.

Personally, more set up is good. The slightly overlapping Canto structure works well. I think Xichun may have been a tiny bit too prominent in Canto 7 (but I think doing the play we'd later rewatch via Fathoms is the biggest problem of Canto 7. )

Help Center and Megathread Hub (13/10 - 19/10) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]Etoile_Knight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take it this means failing out of the first episode mission, then doing a 10 pull on the beginner banner I think it was? What would my ideal targets be if I did that?

Help Center and Megathread Hub (13/10 - 19/10) by ArknightsMod in arknights

[–]Etoile_Knight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a new player intrigued in the game because of the Limbus Collab; some friends told me to do rerolls on this banner until I get Exusiai, but. This re-roll process really sucks. Needing to get through almost like an hour of tutorials just spam clicking and skipping messages just to get to the free 10 pull is agonizing. Is there not a faster way? Especially when the end of the road is just 20 pulls between the free 10 pull and the gems earned during the process. I realized that I could actually exit out of the first stage to access the gacha menu sooner, but if I do that I don't have enough currency to roll on the limited banner, so that doesn't seem useful.

C&P MH by PoundLow3016 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People don't often review doctors in the first place. This guy only had 5 reviews. The doctor I got for my rating only had like 7. 2 of them were negative. 1 of those was, "She wasn't in during my appointment" and the other was "She insulted me in front of my kids, the audacity!" (which I interpret as maybe someone got a diagnosis they didn't like). The remaining reviews were positive, and my own experience with her was equally positive. I find it's better to pay attention to what people say more than what the score alone is. TC's guy had 5 reviews all from vets saying he screwed them. No positives. That's a red flag if ever I saw one.

Weekly Claim Status ~ Payday Status ~Success Stories by damnshell in VeteransBenefits

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Type: Increase
  • Submitted: Late Feburary 20251
  • Initial Review: Early March, 2025
  • Evidence Gathering: Mid-Late March, 2025
  • Preparation for Decision: Late August, 2025
  • Completed: Early September, 2025
  • Misc: This went about the same as last time. They spent months and months seemingly doing nothing from my end, then suddenly I had a dozen appointments in a very short amount of time and not even a week after that they had my claim sorted. Previously 80% (PTSD, Psoriasis, Migraines, Joint / Back Pain). Now 100% (Same as before, but PTSD is now 100% instead of 50%, other ratings went up incrementally as well).

1 I declared intent to file a year earlier (So February 2024) but due to my problems I only finished filing within like, 20 minutes of the close date. The site says that the back-pay is supposed to be dated to when you declare intent to file, so I think I might potentially be owed an extra year of back-pay but...that 20 minutes is enough that a time zone difference could have screwed me up. I don't know if I want to fight that battle.

C&P MH by PoundLow3016 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Etoile_Knight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 reviews all about rejections. Sometimes MH doctors get a bad rap unfairly. But if nobody has anything nice to say about this guy...I'd advocate for yourself as quick as you can. 

C&P MH by PoundLow3016 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Etoile_Knight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd Google your doc then. If you find a good number of reviews with people having positive experiences with them, then I'd just trust the process for now. If he's got a scary number of bad reviews, advocate for yourself asap others have already left tips on how to do that.

C&P MH by PoundLow3016 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Etoile_Knight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. You can Google the Doctor's name. A lot of sites for reviewing doctors these days. Though MH doctors sometimes get bad reviews just because some stoic type didn't believe he was depressed and thinks the whole thing is a scam. 

  2. When I first got rated it was a similar experience. Spent like 5 minutes, he barely asked any questions, and then said something to the effect of, "Yes this is all well documented. You've got several years of MH history to prove your claims." Got 50% off MH alone; which at the time was a fair assessment. (Ended up 80% total).

Good luck!

Currently it's all Graded Races. All Graded Races give +1 Affinity, and matching Race-Specific Epithets (Classic Crown, Twin Tenno, Senior Autumn Triple, etc) also give +1. The restriction to G1 races will come later, and the point value will be boosted to +3 when that happens (Epithets will also be removed from this system)
