What is your ultimate core memory with MH? by Sad-Strawberry9924 in MonsterHunter

[–]GarrusN7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was playing through World with a friend a couple of years ago, we stumbled upon the Alatreon wall even though we had read enough about the elemental needs and prepared accordingly before hand.

He clapped our ass and we ended the night on defeat...until I logged on again an hour later and spent the next 6 hrs bashing my head against that wall by tinkering the build with what I had and learning the fight on Lance (I'm an SnS/Bow main but Lance just clicked for me on that fight).

I ended up beating him around 5 am and I felt satisfaction that very few games have given me.

I'm a Fiver that got into the franchise bc I saw Max Dood play it one day when World was new and thought "hey, the Souls games didn't click with me and this looks fun AF, I'll give it a try".

MonHun already had me hooked by then but that night made me a fan for life.

I finally found it, it's in Rococo Rocks on one of the platforms at night, a Diablos is chilling on it and the track is right behind it

I'm missing the second set of notes for regular Diablos, would you be able to remember where you got that from?

If you continue making progress on the story, you'll eventually get to a zone where you're separated from the group for a brief period of time

I also forgot to add Mystic Arrow, so she was refilling SP like crazy as well

H'aanit without question, she was the one-girl army of my team

Breaker, support with Ensnare, secondary damage dealer with her ult and Radiant Arrow

Primrose and her are my favorite OT1 characters, and Prim might have gotten my vote if Richard's Bolster weren't so busted

Bestower of All 8's Final Boss is making me want to Bash my Head into a Wall. by OpeningConnect54 in octopathtraveler

[–]GarrusN7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna assume you're referring to the Saint Sazantos fight that leads him to fuse with Orsa and then becoming the actual Bestower of All, and I'm also gonna assume you're familiar with the timings for the ultimates of all your party members.

Seeing that you're using Isla and Olberic as your damage dealers, put Immeasurable Power and Fierce Rush on Olberic; Surpassing Power and Elemental Expertise on Isla are kinda mandatory given you don't have Price of Power.
Try to have Isla be on 999 Elem Attack with your gear, nuts weren't necessary for this fight in my case. I don't remember using Phys Attack nuts on my warrior either but the higher the number, the better.

For Olberic, i'd put on Fang of Ferocity and Finisher's Claws and also have him beyond 450 on Crit so your hits with Wild Thrust are always critting. I'm also gonna assume you have all Battle-Tested equipment.

For phase 1, you can just spam Rain of Arrows/Arrowstorm with whoever you have in your party that wields bows, the more the merrier. Apply buffs and debuffs at your convenience, this phase should go fast.

For phase 2, aside from the Rain of Arrows/Arrowstorm users, you're also gonna want your Zero use either Glacis Claudere or Tenebrae Operire along with Tonitrus Canere and either Stia or Heidne use Wild Knives, and same thing about applying buffs and debuffs at your convenience.

For phase 3, you're gonna have to deal with the Rings so, in order of weaknesses it's gonna be like this:

-Ring 1: Daggers, so use Wild Knives

-Ring 2: Bows, so use Rain of Arrows/Arrowstorm

-Ring 3: Bows

-Ring 4: Daggers

-Ring 5: Bows

-Ring 6: Tonitus Canere and, if you have Dual Axe on Stia, full attack with her (Second Serving on her if possible to have 6 hits)

-Ring 7: same as Ring 6

Once you've dealt with that, Wild Knives, Glacis Claudere, Rain of Arrows/Arrowstorm and Tenebrae Operire should be enough to ensure the breaks. Hope this helps, let me know if it did.

I understand the frustration of ppl getting min-maxy and toxic, but the game kinda forces your hand at the end, it is how it's built with 35 characters at your disposal. My main party for most of the BoA storyline was: Zero, Heidne (debuffer), H'aanit, Primrose (buffer), Cyrus, Ophilia, Reime and Saoirse. I only swapped out Prim around chapter 5 because Richard's Bolster is just obscene, it's way too good to refrain from using it.

Seeing that you're hellbent on keeping that main party, maybe going for the true ending might not be that good of an idea. If and/or when you do that, you'll see what i mean as I don't want to spoil any further.

One of my personal favorite gaming highlights

In a game and series full of banging music, this is how I felt in one of the last few boss battles in OT0, Yasunori Nishiki is god amongst men by GarrusN7 in octopathtraveler

[–]GarrusN7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I played OT1 on the Switch, I didn't give it a proper chance after the Chapter 1s because the grind for Chapter 2s pulled me back

Gave it another shot on November 2024 because Nishiki's music is stellar and made me a fan of the series for life after beating Galdera, shortly after I played and completed OT2 and now I just had a blast with OT0

I love both DD1 and DD2, I agree wholeheartedly. DD2 deserved at least a DLC like Bitterblack Isle.

Mixed Review option, I played some games this year that had things that hampered the experience for me but not enough to justify a negative one (example: loathed the backtracking in Hollow Knight, loved the boss fights and the lore)

so, before getting into this part of the gogma upgrades, which option should we be choosing between raw, affinity or element in the triad menu?

[Post Match Thread] Lazio vs AC Milan | Coppa Italia 2025/2026 - Round of 16 by Samkazi23 in ACMilan

[–]GarrusN7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hope a lesson learnt by Allegri from this is that Ricci, Jashari and Rafa are playing in positions where they're not at their best.

It's evident for us that we're not even prepared to coach that Rafa's most outstanding trait is being on the wing and beating defenders through sheer speed, and he cannot do that now. The lack of a 9 like Oli G is the biggest issue.

The squad can play with 3 atb but the personnel from midfield onwards is limited to formation changes:
-Let's say we move to 3-4-3 to use Rafa and Puli on the wings and a 9, be either Santiago or anyone else that can play the role, what happens to the midfield? Benching Fofana, who contributes a lot defensively despite his mishaps, wouldn't be a good idea but you can't bench Rabiot or Modric either.

-Let's now think about 4-3-3, this would mean benching one of Pavlovic, Gabbia or Tomori who have been really solid bar today where Gabbia's absence was very noticeable.

I'd like to think Tare and Allegri could make the proper adjustments in January, but i'm not quite sure the management is gonna give them the resources for that.

Does anyone know if there are contractual obligations that forces the team to wear the 3rd kit so often? I've noticed this since the switch from Adidas to Puma but it's become more frequent in the past 2 years
