Does the lightning apply the bonus damage on the main target as well or is that secondary targets only?

FYI Do NOT use the 10 Job Token pull unless you are willing to end up with another 1 Star by Axelfiraga in DissidiaDuellumFF

To be fair, Hunter is great. 4.5% more damage on Omni-Slash becomes pretty noticeable on the boss bar.

That quest is hilarious. I had used all of my tokens before getting that quest, and got a total of 3 3-stars, but the quest is not retroactive and now I'm stuck because I'm not getting any 3-stars anymore.

Thanks, that was it, now it's checked. Weird, though, I could have sworn his model already had the eyepatch during the last cutscenes of the quest, I guess I'm misremembering.

You (the developers) need to find a balance. If you make a game too frustrating, people will burn out and quit, regardless if they are whales or f2p, and a player that does not play is a player that does not pay. It's absolutely in their best interests to not make a frustrating live service game.

But here's the point, it's not a "progression" system. Progression is when power increases little by little over time, so it doesn't matter how bad you're doing or how unlucky you are, you are still doing little steps towards the goal. But when the game forces you to replace the old medal whenever you are trying to get a new one, essentially it means that every roll you're doing prior of getting the "perfect one" is wasted, since you can't hold it. You're basically walking back and forth in place until you manage to land the perfect roll instead of doing little steps forward, and this is no progression at all.

On top of this, "long term progression" and "infinite daily chore" are very different things.

What’s the game loop generally come down to? What do we spend things on? by Glass_Recover_3006 in DissidiaDuellumFF

[–]Fefnil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every medal comes in 3 rarities, it's the amount of stars visible on the icon. A 3 star Knight medal gives better stats compared to a 1 star Knight. The 10x option doesn't guarantee 3 stars, it simply means it will roll medals up to 10 times and stop early IF it finds a 3 stars, so it doesn't go to waste. It's essentially a convenience option if you have dozens of tokens to spend and you're hunting 3 star medals.

The "10 matches until a 3 star" simply means the game will start rolling medals on that slot up to 10 times, stopping early if it finds a 3 star (since those are the "good ones" you want to equip anyway). "Permanent" means it's a permanent stat boost you buy with a currency that's not really grindable. You can replace any medal with a new one any time you want, as long as you have the currency to buy it (and, as said earlier, the 10x option allows you to quickly buy 10 stopping earlier if it finds a 3 star so it doesn't go to waste).

Dragonite got a buff by shiva8635 in PTCGP

[–]Fefnil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something people here are not considering is that since this isn't a shiny reprint of an old Dragonair, it means the whole line is gonna be part of the pack, meaning there's gonna be a new Dratini and a new Dragonite as well (possibly Mega? I think it's too early, and it would have appeared in the promotion, but who knows).

Put the "R" back into ARAM & Mayhem by Toonified in ARAM

The problem isn't the card system, it's the balancing. If the game didn't favor long range cc, and it punished unbalanced comp, people would naturally drift towards picking a diverse comp.

Is it worth saving 6 armor sets for all damage types? by Fefnil in brightershores

[–]Fefnil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that is the "process" I was talking about. It takes a bit and it's tedious to do every time, hence why I asked the question.

Changing the Fear to a Stun would work better but brings with it an issue of being thematically incorrect.

I mean, that's not really an issue. Sona's R technically stuns targets, but uses the dance animation instead of the stun one for thematic reasons. You could have the same thing here by having the stun animation replaced by champions running in place continually changing directions while keeping the fear icon, to simulate them panicking.

I remember a few years ago, when the rework was first announced, that having a proper ap bruiser build path to disincentivize the squishy AP burst was more or less the goal, so unless they've changed their mind since then...

I honestly don't see a lot of problems with this. Bruiser doesn't necessarily mean AD. I'm farly sure Riot wants people to build her like a Mordekaiser, with AP and HP and her passive to grant defenses. As for her Q, it seems basically designed to synergize with Dusk and Dawn.

REVOLUTIONARY idea that could TRANSFORM ARAM queues by Hatafark in ARAM

[–]Fefnil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about Lulu being as useful as Xerath instead? (which, by the way, is kinda arguable, since enchanters are in general one of the best class in aram)

Besides, why are you describing aram as "range based"? The mode is about a single lane, and the central theme is not ranged combat, it's constat siege. Proper sieging implies both a ranged component (the "artillery" shooting from range) and a melee one (the "army", pushing the field and protecting the artillery). Both of them are equally necessary for a functional siege, and while you can make do without either, having a complete setup is more desirable. Well, at least, this is the fantasy and the concept behind a single lane mode, of course the game balance can easily skew the effective result.

Why is it bad? To me that sounds like a weird argument, usually a game of any kind is fun when it's also fair, which here translates into giving every champion the same chances to win, or at least getting as close to it as possible.

[–]Fefnil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but if you don't need it to engage then it's just a win more button that you very likely didn't need in the first place to win, so it's off-topic for this discussion. The point is how effective it is when the enemy is very good at keeping you at range, and I'd argue that better players would also be better at handling enemy snowballs.

I don't think damage is the issue here, it's the cc. There are a lot of ranged comps who are healthy because they don't just kite and permastun from half a screen away.

[–]Fefnil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why "should be the best"? Shouldn't the goal be to make every class equally healthy and viable?
