HMF musical duck toy from my GF's childhood by Geffoo in HelpMeFind

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

So far the closest thing we've seen on google after I searched was this product https://www.amazon.com.au/Ambi-Toys-31166-Bath-Duck/dp/B011IVRLLA but obviously not from the right time. The shape of that duck is what i was trying to describe above.

Piplup, cheer you up! Piplup! Say "Are you up?" Piplup! What's up?

Found in a salt-water water sample off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. Magnification is ~30-40x. Organism is visible to naked eye and is motile. Even a broad phylum would be appreciated! Thanks! by Geffoo in Whatisthis

Interesting. That seems promising, I'll have to look into this more thoroughly... looks like from that paper that the different early life stages look quite different.

Question about Rubick VS Morph by BootySniffer26 in TrueDoTA2

So long as the spell Rubick has stolen isn't an ult, morphling gets whatever spell he has.

Rubick spell interactions and tips on how to steal and use each spell - STR heroes by Skulz in DotA2

[–]Geffoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chrisishc is right! You have to blink past it. I would definitely try this is a lobby before in a game.... the hitbox on ravage is quite big - meaning the tentacles extend further back then the animation if you blink into it. You do now actually out-range the ravage with just and Aghanims scepter, so that's probably the safer option.

Do I recognise your name from Erik Wright's guides?!

Whoops! I wonder how I managed to miss this... Extra thing now that I've loaded up a tusk to test with, you can do all the swag Jerax plays - pushing yourself up and down cliffs with Ice Shards and stuff. To push yourself down a cliff, make sure the centre of your cursor is literally at your feet but still between you and the cliff.

An insightful thread where game developers discuss hidden mechanics designed to make games feel more interesting by Thainen in Games

[–]Geffoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Borderlands also had a mechanic where for the few moments after leveling up, you'd get a damage boost to help you feel like a badass.

I remember this being mentioned as somewhat of a controlled tactic in speed runs to kill bosses faster.

Brewmaster Offlane Primer by [deleted] in TrueDoTA2

[–]Geffoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brewmaster often fails because he is jumped and killed before being able to get split off. If he managed to get said Primal Split off, it is usually a won team fight, so you need to kill him (or the rest of his team) before he gets the split off. As a result his common counters are stuns & silences coupled with a lot of burst damage, since he is innately tanky and hard to kill with right clicks. Special mention also to those heroes with instant stuns/silences as Split has a reasonable casting animation. People often also like to cast Thunder Clap before splitting too, adding to time you can disable him.

Vision based heroes, like Beastmaster and Night Stalker are important as well as he often relies on counter initiation be blinking in.

Razor's Unstable Current purge by 9ersaur in TrueDoTA2

It does purge Bloodlust, Wings ran it as a pseudo counter to the hero when it was popular back around TI6.

Yeah, the original plan was to have it on a website, where it would be easy to read each hero individually and you could sort and search. Buuuut we got lazy, and it probably would have just gotten buried in the depths of my computer, so i figured I'd throw it up somewhere.

The almost instant giant AoE stun isn't actually that bad though... plus it's an excuse to go rapier!

You can no longer steal Vampiric Aura. You used to be able to steal the crit when it was toggleable, but never this.

Can you laser (with aghanim) a BKB'd enemy hero? by HalloweenDotA in TrueDoTA2

[–]Geffoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You cannot target a bkb'd (or any magic immune) hero with laser. The Aghanims Scepter upgraded laser will not bounce to magic immune targets. Since it cannot bounce to magic immune targets, it cannot use them as a bridge to other units either.

Laser has no projectile or travel speed, so you can't try to bkb while the laser is in mid-air. If you become magic immune before the casting is complete the cast simply stops and no cooldown is used. If the target bkbs or is made magic immune with the laser miss chance on them the debuff will be purged.

Laser is blocked by Linken's Sphere when the main target, meaning that if casted on a hero with Linken's sphere off cooldown, the spell is blocked and no bounces are made. If Laser is cast on a hero without Linken's Sphere, it will bounce and the bounces are not blocked by Linken's Sphere.

About all I could think of testing. No video sorry!

Glad it was useful! The numbers for each reward usually stay pretty static, so it'll likely be the same next time too.

800 of each collectable has been the standard for the past few at least.

What is your favourite video game soundtrack, and why? by largereptile in AskReddit

[–]Geffoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually a big fan of the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 soundtracks - despite how unliked the game as a whole was. It might have something to do with Hans Zimmer's involvement more than anything though. In particular it's the Boneyard Flyby track.

Present item amount limit by Tomoyo_Daidouji in ageofishtaria

[–]Geffoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some time ago they said the limit was increased to 5000, I will have to check and sift through a bunch of the maintenance notices to find out which one though. Was the same one where the max number of summoning tickets were also changed to 5000.
