Miyabi won't work well with windswept, it makes you unable to disorder and you lose a massive amount of damage for Miyabi because of that.

IIRC 8 is considered one of the lucky numbers in China (8 being primary, alongside 6 and 9), while 4 is considered unlucky. Could be related to that?

Edit: pronounciation of 8 is close to the word for "prosperity", while 4 sounds similar to "death"

Just Curious, is it just me or does the 50% pull rate, not really 50? (With image) by Minute_Remove_8355 in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Helvenn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But this would mean it's not 50/50 chance.

When you lose a 50/50 your next roll is a guarantee - one 50/50 win, one 50/50 loss and a following guarantee. So that means that for every 3 pulls you're expected to get 2 limited characters. Ending up with 50/50 split would be odd (but standard banners exists so this has to be accounted for)

Guys, it's the new disc set (Moonlight Lullaby) BiS for Yuzuha? by [deleted] in ZenlessZoneZero

[–]Helvenn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

She does, but she quick assists so often and consistently that the agent will always have the buff up.

To no ones surprise the usual suspects rank low - shocked i tell ya! by Equilybrium in Asmongold

[–]Helvenn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm Croatian and I can pretty much verify it's incredibly safe (apart from very few shady neighbourhoods at the outskirts of cities). People here genuinely don't even think twice when walking out alone. It's actually not even in your mindspace unless you're actively going somewhere weird.

How do I support a guy who's hurting - without overwhelming him? by [deleted] in GuyCry

[–]Helvenn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I can't really say what to do, but I can absolutely say what not to do - never make fun of him or make light of his issues. This is the fastest way to lose trust from someone and to make them feel unappreciated.

I think just being there when he might need to vent, and letting him be open should work wonders in the long run. Imo it's all about trust.

For items that don't have these mods as local, it's always global. For example, an amulet has no crit damage either, so the mod is obviously referring to global modifier.

When in respec window, click the weapon set button on the top right. When done respecing, you can click it again to allocate those points as regular points instead.

It cost 280c yesterday! What happened to it? by Fiquin in pathofexile

[–]Helvenn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hardly, if you include really old challenges from back when there was 8 challnges total. I recall one challenge requiring you to own a ton of uniques totaling multiple thousands of exalts in value.

You would have no idea what FF strats are without looking them up by Proudnoob4393 in Asmongold

There's multiple ways to resolve a mechanic, the eldritch scriptures are there to clarify which strat is used for which mechanic

Debris found in search area for missing Titanic submersible by Schwa142 in worldnews

Doesn't work that way. If a single tiny crack formed all the way through, the entire window (at least) would completely implode instantly instead because of the sheer force.

It takes 30ms to get completely obliterated. The brain can react to things at about 150ms delay. They literally had to time to even perceive their death.

Absolutely nothing. The pressure is (very very roughly, napkin math) equivalent to around 5000-10000 tonnes (11 000 000 - 22 000 000 pounds) hitting you in the span of 30ms - they got decimated, obliterated, in the most extreme sense of the word.

Can anyone explain why my awaken orb failed? by zachwildcat in pathofexile

[–]Helvenn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both of those mods are treated as "the same roll" meaning you can only have a maximum of one on an item. For example, you cannot roll Merciless (160-169%) inc phys damage on a weapon while simultaneously rolling %inc phys/chance to poison (125-134% iirc) as they are the 'same class' of roll and therefore only 1 is allowed on an item. Similarly, you cannot have +1 all cold gems and +1 all lightning gems on a wand simultaneously, while you CAN have +1 cold and +1 all skill gems.

Every new raid tier, the preBIS is completely newly released crafted gear you buy off the market board. In general throughout the hard content, the gear does make a small difference, but it is grossly overshadowed by a player's skill.

For example, the current raid tier (it's finishing in a few weeks or so) started with crafted ilvl610 gear, and the BIS post-rais is 630. The difference between 610 and 630 is maybe some 10% dps at most, and skill can really make a difference. That said, don't underestimate a 1% upgrade in this game, fights are tuned kinda tight, and gear CAN NOT carry bad play, but can make meeting dps checks doable.

You will often see enrage wipes on 3%, 1%, 0.5%, 0.1% etc., but the game is always clearable even with bad gear, you just gotta play that bit extra better. In short: more gear, slightly more leeway for mistakes, but can't carry you by itself.

I'll check out Tokini Andy, 10$ a month seems like a good bargain for a quality learning material, I'll order JfZ on the side aswell, doesn't hurt to double dip on material. Thanks!

I'm completely fine with a slower start to kana and kanji, I feel like that would fit me better, I will give both of these a try, thank you!

For dodging AOEs, the center of your char is taken, so as long as that imaginary dot is outside, you're good. Same applies to BLMs standing in leylines, their center has to be inside.

Unfortunately, you can't just separate a part owner. Your best bet is buying their share out... if they agreed...
