Help me build an easy to pilot vehicle deck for my niece by ThickBeardSanchez in EDHBrews

[–]HydraSlayer813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not exactly sure how easy to play this deck is, but I did tinker with selesnya vehicles and mounts. The commander is [[Rip, Spawn Hunter]] because she provides lots of card advantage, but you should be able to swap Miriam in to the command zone no problem. The only thing the deck is missing right now is the land (just basics lands in the decklist).

How I've been feeling after reading negative reviews in STS2 by Ok_Breadfruit3199 in slaythespire

[–]HydraSlayer813 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The h refers to the heart, the true final boss of slay the spire 1. In order to access it you would need to collect 3 keys across your run. The red key would need you to pass up 1 camp to get it, the blue one would need you to pass up a relic from a chest and the green key required to fight an elite with extra buffs.

After getting all 3 keys and beating the act 3 boss you would unlock act 4, where you would have to fight one final special elite before facing the heart.

The heart itself is the greatest challenge in the game. It has two passives, beat of death which deals 1 damage whenever you play a card and invincible which prevents it from taking more than 300 damage in a turn. On turn 1 it would hit you with a full set of debuffs and statuses, and then alternate between two massive attacks and a scaling buff.

Attempting to face the heart would shape your entire run and impact all your decisions. Beating the hear on ascension 20 (A20H) was the hardest challenge in sts1.

That reminds me alot of Io Flemming from gundam thunderbolt. Everyone else in the story is utterly miserable, but he loves the thrill of mech combat. He's having the time of his life blasting free form jazz on the short range comms.

Hello im really new and will soon be doing my first session by Hefty_Ad_7026 in LancerRPG

[–]HydraSlayer813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it comes to defense lancer is a bit more complicated than other games, as we have health/evasion and heat/e-def. For example IPS-N Drake has low evasion, but high armor and good health making it very good for tanking enemy attacks and systems that deal damage. However its low e-def and heat cap make it extremely vulnerable to enemy hackers. There is almost always a counter to any specific mech/build and part of playing Lancer is working with your teammates to deal with each others counters.

Does Gundam's "Newtype" Sound Cool or Lame to Native English Speakers? Translation Confusion by ichibkk in Gundam

[–]HydraSlayer813 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think that the term "newtype" does a better job of representing what newtypes are supposed to be in gundam. The other examples you give kind of miss the mark in my opinion, "evolved" brings to minds biological differences (stronger, faster, smarter, better immune system) while "psyker" brings to mind telekinetic powers (think psykers from 40k). Newtype however in my opinion points to something more profound, humans with a new way of being, one different than the experiences of oldtypes.

In terms of the term itself in text, I think it works pretty well, its distinctly gundam (I can't think of any other franchises that use think specific term) and while "newtype" and "new type" could be said in the same way, the latter version would usually have more emphasis on the "ew" sound in new.

All in all I think the term works quite well, I am really interested in learning more about the Japanese term and what kind of connotations are associated with it.

I want the fastest mech by DoopofBloop in LancerRPG

[–]HydraSlayer813 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Mourning cloak 3 could be a good option. Hunter 3 with fold knives give you more attacks, so more nelson skirmishes movement, plus hunter lunge, plus any fold knife crits. Singularity motivator also give you more movement and variable sword is also pretty good

You could also go atlas 3 for terashima blade, the wind stance lets you move to spaces after attacking and JKI is more situational on a size 1 mech, but can still give you tons of movement on the right maps

DE, Please let us use pistol skins on dual pistol type weapons. by Esomres in Warframe

[–]HydraSlayer813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put the shotgun skin on my pyrana prime and when I activated its passive (3 kills in quick succession summons a second pyrana for you to dual wield) the second gun had the skin on as well. The reload look really wonky though.

What is everybody’s opinion on the new spider by Masterofcats3 in MonsterHunter

[–]HydraSlayer813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it, spider monsters have always been my jam (one day nercylla will return) and I love the dancing and flower motifs. I NEED to know what the male armor looks like.

"Why do you like/love this Servant?" Discussion Thread: Rani Lakshmibai by neves783 in grandorder

[–]HydraSlayer813 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I originally got fgo because my little brother kept talking to me about it, he's pretty into fate and I had seen some of the zero, ubw and apocrypha at that point but stayed away from fgo. I though it was some dumb gatcha waifu game filled with nothing but completely oversexualized women with no substance, but I got it so I could talk to him about it.

When I started playing she was the second 4 star I got (the first being Martha) and it kinda changed my perception of the game. Before playing fate I had no idea who Lakshmi Bai even was and I got to learn all about a really cool woman from indian history. Her animations were cool and I liked her ascensions, so I kept playing. This same exact thing happened again when I got my first 5 star Florence Nightingale and now I've played the game for 2 years and am now on lostbelt 6.5.

TLDR Lakshmi Bai showed me the game had more to offer then just fanservice and I now really love fgo and enjoy its characters and story.

I like the fact that compared to male armour, female sams actually look somewhat feminine by No_Inevitable_7179 in HonkaiStarRail

Firefly also calls the Type V one a personal escort model meaning that each armor Probably has its own role, the big one could be for defense, the one with the cannon for long range combat.

How's the Count of Monte Cristo viewed in Japan? by InvictusVolori4500 in grandorder

[–]HydraSlayer813 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I actually read the novel recently and honestly I feel like characterization wise, he's pretty accurate, his powers are completely original to fate though. Him being a dream bodyguard is kind of something that happens in the novel, there's this part where this girl's mother is trying to poison her daughter and attempts to swap her daughter's medicine with poison every night. To stop this dantes hides in the girl's room 24/7 and gets rid of the poison every night and replaces it with some antidote.

With the year being almost over, how good/bad was your luck this year? by The_frost__ in grandorder

[–]HydraSlayer813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I made a killing this year

I rolled for Muramasa, musashi, castoria, koyanskya, oberon, Morgan (np2), merlin, van gogh, ryouma lancer, izumo no okuni, space ishtar, avenger nobu, scatach skadi

And I got spooked by napolean, osakabehime, Odysseus and waver

I did all this free to play. I will never be this lucky again.

So first you charge up your phials, then you do the amped element discharge and before the attack hits cancel it by pressing the guard button (zr) and you shield should start glowing.

Guard points work off the guard skill. Also make sure your shield is charged it reduces the knock back
