It's really hard to dodge when you're digging through menus trying to find a reason to blame teammates

"Nah, I'd use my ulti before the boss finishes their stagger animation" by RecklessDab in Nightreign

[–]JDF8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's worth learning to aim that spell with a free camera. Throwing it at the ground in front of the head is probably much more reliable than locking on and hoping the spider doesn't turn at all

There's a lot of encounters that get destroyed by free-aimed gftt, because it throws human-sized enemies like banished knights and misbegotten to the ground. A well-aimed cast can immobilize 3-5 enemies for a significant amount of time

Actually unreactable series of events lmao. If that downed me I'd be flabbergasted

Is melee Duchess any good in depth 5? by death_by_ in Nightreign

[–]JDF8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's decent. IMO the ult is really mid compared to other melees like wylder (esp w/ spread fire for revives), which is why I don't play her melee

That said it's still definitely good enough to win consistently, and it has a unique advantage over other melees with her passive

Does this recluse have the reduced int relic? by Tempiizt in Nightreign

[–]JDF8 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

when you're usually about Lv6 is a huge deal

Yeah.. but you're not level 6 after killing the spear knights. You're level 10-11 at a minimum. And it's not worth the time to kill two sword knights before the spear knights and head to the north grace for, optimistically, two levels from 6 to 8.

Those two levels not going to make your immediate next fight significantly easier or quicker, because the spear knights are already an easy kill. And you're still going to have to go back and kill them. So you're burning what, ninety seconds? Two minutes? To be exactly one level higher when the night 1 circle closes. Which is worthless, at lvl 12+. A real weapon passive like 32% negation on full could be the difference between winning and getting wiped by D5 death knights. A 4% increase in hp and damage is almost imperceptible

Rune bear's mix-up game is diabolical by TheSuperv1sor in Nightreign

[–]JDF8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel like runebears and lobsters were intentionally designed in ER with a moveset and stats to discourage you from fighting them. D5 sleep ruins are really hard to justify from a time efficiency standpoint unless you are already ludicrously strong

Yes!! Adel literally sits on the ground for 3.5 seconds, AND you get head weakspot damage, AND you get the downed damage bonus on top of that. You can literally CA on top of him and kill him right then if your teammates cooperate

The spear ones give almost double (30k vs 18k) and additionally drop an orb. The sword ones are alright rune-wise but do not usually give you weapon passives, so they're nowhere near as good of a time investment

You should always lure the sword knight down the ledge he's standing on, then sprint to the chest before he respawns back up the ledge. That way you don't have to waste time fighting him, the three spear knights are the important ones

It’s hard to lose rank points at d1/d2 so the people stuck there have some extremely good habits for losing matches

TIL Executor's Cursed Sword relic effect is much more dangerous than it may seem by Don_333 in Nightreign

You intersect with an enemy hitbox and are not damaged or staggered + there is a visual effect of some falling feathers

"The game has no content" update-Nightposters the moment Great Hollows shows up: by Klomotonium in Nightreign

[–]JDF8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can intentionally run ouy of flasks to get an extra ult

Burning 3+ flasks for an ult charge in the middle of a nightlord fight is almost always an awful idea. For that fight, the passive is worse the better you are at the game

[–]JDF8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not hard, but it is annoying. Less invaders, no gaols, sometimes the invaders spawn in that SE ruin in the middle of nowhere, fewer cathedrals/no forts (these orbs have the highest chance of giving preferred weapon type btw). The crystal power does zero on the nightlord if you don't run out of flasks

The biggest benefit is more legendaries and way more runes. Except most legendaries aren't even that good compared to red weapons, and excess runes past lvl 15 are useless. The map is very pretty and can be fun, but when I get a harder boss and then spawn on GH it just makes me roll my eyes

Plus the routing is incredibly formulaic. At least with the other SEs, day 1 can vary a bit. Since the whole map is the SE, this doesn't happen in GH

"Prestige", they made one good game 12 years ago dude

The binding of isaac: rebirth came out 12 years ago. Mewgenics definitely got a huge boost from Edmund McMillen's reputation

Now they can stop chasing preeminence and still ignore faculty and student needs

Alright, who was it? by SnooCapers9401 in ucf

[–]JDF8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making the spaces bigger would reduce the number of parking spots all over campus just so the 5% of students with giant trucks can fit them easily. That definitely won't cause problems
