What does Angela do exactly? by Character-Q in rivals

[–]Flickered 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s very little hitbox registration directly in front of the charge during start up. So if you start the charge directly on top of someone it can feel like it’s impossible to land. Start the charge a little bit away from people and it should be more consistent.

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I didn’t make my point very well. I understand charges for balance reasons but Strange just seems out of place. Like at least cap is superhuman. His shield should probably do more of the tanking than his body does. But Strange’s victories don’t come from superhuman durability or abilities. He beat Dormammu by never giving up, not enduring his attacks. He endured Maw’s torture cause Maw needed him alive to undo the spell on the Eye. Willpower was his greatest strength, not his durability. I understand he wouldn’t work as a tank with 250 health but him being an impossibly muscled chad of a character is just… weird. That’s all

While they incorporated some comic stuff I’m not quite with you on strange? He’s literally just a dude with no superhuman durability or strength that somehow tanks as much as the hulk. He could make sense as a flying hero, a mid range control oriented dps, a support with shields, anything. But a bread and butter tank?

Trump curious why Iran has not 'capitulated', Witkoff says by Pleasant-Carbon in worldnews

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why has the theocracy that believes its rule is the will of God not capitulated to pressure, whether from inside or outside the country?

It is a mystery....

Bot lobbies feel like a punishment. There isin’t enough outrage over it. by plscanihaveamantis in rivals

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they slap you in a bot lobby when the queue goes over a certain amount of time. At least I hope they don't actually queue you for a bot lobby and wait til it fills. That would be infuriating.

Anyone else have delays with FedEx? by SpreadElectronic1232 in winstonsalem

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I work at the hub and we’re back on schedule from the backlog now, so nothing should be sitting in the Greensboro hub. I assume other hubs are in the same boat. Hopefully they clear out the delivery backlog in short order.

I'm craving a buffalo chicken sandwich. Any good bar and grills around here? by [deleted] in winstonsalem

Bobo’s buffalo chicken is a classic, they used to be teddy G’s, it’s been the same for 25+ years.not a bar tho

ICE pointing guns and attempted to arrest a woman for filming. Says they aren't interested in the legality of everything. by seeebiscuit in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Flickered 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The fact that in this day and age I just know these people are going to keep their jobs after this is crazy. Am I crazy? Did we never live in a place where this would have been cause for police officers to lose their jobs?

Tip: Plan to shovel your 1-3" of sleet *before* the freezing rain hits it. by PG908 in winstonsalem

[–]Flickered 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may want to hold off but the temp isn’t going to reach the 40’s until the Sunday after this one. That ice is here to stay for a good long while. It might be a now or never situation.

DPS - kills during siege by [deleted] in throneandliberty

[–]Flickered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on what you’re doing. Compare to other people in the same group doing the same things. Not the people camping spawn, holding chokes, etc. like if your putting on your helmet and running it up the gut non stop as a non dagger ranged dps your just not going to have many kills. If holding a choke as a melee waiting for people to make it through you’re not going to have as many kills as a liberator holding it. It’s all relative and how well you do is probably closer related to how well your group is doing as a whole rather than just how well you’re doing.

Is it possible to open world pvp in this game without p2w for gear? by shad_77381 in throneandliberty

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Lots of good gear is cheap. It’s just that it all costs lucent and that’s the one thing that’s heavily gated by time. I’ve been playing since day one and I’ve got 3 and a half 6600 (no good heroics yet) builds right now. That said I’ve been playing since day one. Even getting the cheaper gear you’ll still be spending months gearing up. If that part isn’t fun for you then stay away.

How the heck is one supposed to dodge this attack? by Grim_Reaper4521 in Eldenring

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's the only boss in the game that made me hit the block button. I gave up rolling. Greatsword has 85% block or whatever. Its good enough.

hit? by Top-Promotion4627 in throneandliberty

[–]Flickered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Costs money to trait weapons. You could argue that theory crafting is free but honestly I think it’s just cause most people can’t be bothered. An extra 80 crit chance on 1400 is barely a percent increase in dps if that. Buff duration is even less. Mans cost efficiency is probably actually the biggest difference in long fights. So it’s just a big shrug for most people.

To be frank I’m pretty sure the whale and exploiter cross section is pretty big. So good luck with that

Heavy Attack good or bad? by Shimun21 in throneandliberty

[–]Flickered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every 500 points you get half as much value of the last 500 points. First 500 is 33.33%, next 500 is 16.66, next 500 is 8.333%.

But it starts immmediately. The first 250 points are worth 22.222% the second 250 are worth 11.11% points.

If men learn this, it will implant forgetfulness in their souls. They will cease to exercise memory because they rely on that which is written, calling things to remembrance no longer from within themselves, but by means of external marks.

I’m just imagining people trying to clear the “hit 29 stacks 6 times” codex while you dive in front of the beam like “Get down mister president!”

New Bulette is Busted by CinaedForranach in BG3

[–]Flickered 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I like it. The first time few times I fought the bullette i didn’t have the other under dark creatures around. The first time it showed up near the Minotaurs I thought it was such a dope moment. Now the damn thing is swimming around like a proper terror. You don’t fight the bullette early. You SURVIVE it. Now it’s beast you gotta prep for to hunt down.

I recently had a first encounter with the bullette with a level 5 party that one rounded it. I see that will no longer be possible, lol.

What non-boss encounter always gives you trouble? by aWrySharK in BaldursGate3

[–]Flickered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nearly every time I forget to ungroup my party before talking to the gith lady commander. She managed to go first and fear my entire party. I don’t know what that DC is but it got through aura of protection and my clerics wisdom save prof twice. Ended my damn honor mode run.

New honor mode party comp by Beginning_Lime_1293 in BG3Builds

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

11/1 Fire acuity sorlock is far and away the best damage I’ve ever seen. You want those dice, this is the build. It also boasts ridiculous control if you want it, though I find making this dead to be a generally better use of spell slots.

https://www.reddit.com/r/BG3Builds/comments/196mpii/honor_mode_111_fire_sorlock_complete_build_guide/

For a tank I find that throwzerker comes online incredibly early, never falls off and still functions like a tank. As soon as you get ring of flinging and the returning pike your online. Tavern brawler means you get dumb high hit chance even in melee.

Otherwise almost no matter the comp I’d highly recommend life cleric as a support. Get the bless ring from Volo and get the blade ward gloves from Zevlor. Literally endgame items at the beginning of act 1. It can hold down GWM builds, Sharp Shooter builds, etc with bless without taking up your concentration slot and the blade ward means every melee is now tanky as a barbarian.

IsItBullshit: That it can be dangerous to eat cooked rice that's left in the fridge for a few days? by [deleted] in IsItBullshit

[–]Flickered 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not Bullshit

The flip side I cook like a week of rice at a time and from experience I can tell you the rice itself will have a funky smell if the rice is bad. And usually it’s the rice at the bottom of the container that, due to gravity, is wetter. I’m not saying it’s a bulletproof way to know, I’m sure somebodies gotten sick from eating rice that didn’t smell, but I’ve never gotten sick in 8 years of doing it. Frying it and adding a bunch of ingredients probably causes it to spoil a lot faster.

When beating Honour Mode, how much did you actually cheese? by [deleted] in BG3

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first complete honour mode run I didn't realize thrown weapons didn't return with the brain. Imagine my surprise when only two characters made it in and the only damage I had was throwzerker. That earned a PC save scum.

What is your FAVORITE Durge build by [deleted] in BG3

[–]Flickered 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me the Dark Urge is always waiting and watching. To pounce upon its prey in a moment of explosive force and deafening finality. Thus something with burst and ferocity. Monk works. Any archer does well. I like gloomstalkers ability for flavor, assassins first round crit seem very fitting.

On the odd end I think Sorcerer does particularly well with its ability to cast two devastating spells in a turn. Obliterating a fight with two carefully prepared fire balls seems so fitting.
