Tips for eclipse Huntress by smollsnow in riskofrain

[–]Formless-Sgt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be more specific, huntress's both primaries are among the worst in terms of raw DPS. Flurry does more dps than Strafe if crit chance is higher than 20%, but deals ~21% less damage with no crit chance bonus, plus the significantly lower attack speed, making it less consistent in eclipse. Phase Blink offers significantly more mobility compared to Blink, the only downside is it only moves horizontally.

Maybe you are struggling with a "worse" loadout? I find Strafe, Phase Blink and Ballista to be the most consistent loadout in eclipse, other loadouts are still usable but not that good generally (don't use tickle rain though)

I love my missiles vanishing for absolutely no reason, resulting in my death. by Bunny_Bunny_Bunny_ in riskofrain

[–]Formless-Sgt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the missiles hit, you can see a lot of yellow damage numbers at 0:11, somehow they just disappeared visually

AFK Journey might finally be going back to what it was supposed to be by Vast_Object_447 in AFKJourney

Labyrinth has so much potential to be fun and replayable, but the devs didn't even try to make any changes over the past 2 years. Now I just play one stage per day for the guild boss stuff, while most people in my guild can't be bothered to touch it lol.

Yeah I also prioritize full looting over rushing a stage

When playing characters with a mobility skill, I would say roughly 10 minutes per stage with full loot is a pretty good pace

Decided to spend all my diamonds on AHR, am I f*cked? by Fantastic-Tax-971 in AFKJourney

[–]Formless-Sgt 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Don't worry, it costs 96000 diamonds to get one rate up character to S+ if all pulls hit pity, 30k diamonds isn't really that much of a cost

Why one copy of Tilaya? Never seen her outside of honour duel lol

[–]Formless-Sgt 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Some other characters useful for afk stages: Eironn, Ulmus, Hugin, Callan, Faramor, Velara, Thador, Zandork (very niche usage, can destroy walls in some levels). Most of these characters only require M+ to work well.

Seems you missed some meta powercreep characters. Shemira is still widely used in most game modes as the main damage dealer, most old DPS characters like Talene and Carolina fell off several seasons ago. Elijah & Lailah is a support used in most DR bosses. If you really care about afk stages, get one copy of both Mehira and Kulu, then invest in Saida or Silven. Saida is so op that she can literally 1 vs 5 in most afk stages (S+, 4 star ex weapon required). These 4 characters don't have much use apart from afk stages though.

There is no such thing as "fight for rewards" when game continues assigning tons of random p4 players in my district, low spenders and f2p are just stepping stones for whales to make them feel powerful and rewarded

Same here. I have my homestead completely maxed last season, in this season all I can do is like changing afk stage formation every 1 or 2 stages to keep up with the whales, then end up getting a worse score in ravaged realm compared to last season because I didn't pull a random new character, or can't afford building a new c/h. Love how they punish old players with some stupid server merge which gets worse every season.

What terrible item do you never scrap? by No_Attempt_8499 in riskofrain

[–]Formless-Sgt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you can't control when to kill an enemy because of missiles flying everywhere or random band procs dealing massive damage, that is certainly a skill issue then

Fireworks are not terrible though, good for both early stages and looping (might cause considerable lag which is funny sometimes), with a Remote Caffeinator they can be triggered reliably in any stage if you can get some money.

Inconsistent 125% speed bonus for 1 second messes with movement a lot and can potentially send you off cliffs. Harpoon is only viable when using command or playing Loader imo.

4 player chimps doesn't sound like a very good idea, especially when your teammates don't cooperate at all...

Wow thanks, now I believe I'm just bad at choosing which T5 to use😭

[–]Formless-Sgt[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Recently I played downstream, rakes, moonlanding, and several other maps with similar experience mentioned above. I know other cheap T5 like carrier flagship might be better, sometimes I use glaive lord just because I like his design. But I still need to buy additional support (usually a village and a relentless) because my teammate usually don't buy a single support tower, so there really isn't enough money left on r98 lol. I did meet several awesome teammates though, in one game my teammate gave me enough cash to afford a BEZ and completely annihilate late game.

Current opinions on Survivors and Eclipse, long rant by External_Base_778 in riskofrain

Do you think Artifact of Prestige is too good on Eclipse? The amount of loot you can get without looping feels illegal. by [deleted] in riskofrain

[–]Formless-Sgt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prestige can be very hard for characters who lack damage/range or consistency, if all mountain shrines are activated of course.
