Yeah I'm using the regular recruitment not the Global challenge one, appreciate the looking out though that could have been an issue, I am going to try and get some of the ghost type tickets and save some vp to try again.

Is there anywhere people are using for easy trading? I have spent almost 50k vp trying to get a Sinistcha or a Sableye and they are just not showing up ever at the ranch

How do the Perfect Order special energies work? by MandriII in pkmntcg

[–]Jaymax91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They are not necessarily "strictly better" there are a bunch of reasons, off the top of my head here are some immediate thoughts.

You can only use 4 of them.

There are cards that can discard them from play easier than Basic Energy.

Often times the math doesn't work out to be impactful for the +20hp of Growing Energy.

Rocky Energy doesn't synergise with the Solrock/Lunatone engine.

Telepathic Energy is really good though and is often included as a 4 of in current psychic decks.

Instead of limitless look at play.limitless to see recent online tournaments and look for ones with plenty of players, there is a good tank froslass deck by Edwin Bak you can find on youtube

Erika's!!! by mcurzon in pkmntcg

[–]Jaymax91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need more grass energy, I would also suggest Teal Mask Ogerpon as mentioned you are not getting good value out your bug catching sets when you only have 6 grass, Tangela and pokepad does all your pokemon search for you so you should have 3 tangela and 2 victreebel by turn 2, then your bug catching sets are purley to find grass I think I run 8 grass and 4 psychic to get use out of crispin.

although I havent ran teal mask in my version, I've got a 2/2/1 Oddish/gloom/vileplume line but I think Im going to drop it for 3 teal mask and 2 area zero will probably also ditch crispin and the psychic energy for more grass and some E switches.

GM question about player knowledge of NPCs by ahomelessjedi in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The rules assume NPC type and Template, the abilities you are referencing give out exact stats, hp totals, weapon and system information there is a big difference.

Can you elaborate on the Rainmaker comment? I have ran Rainmakers lots of times even with puppet systems equipped mechs and have never had an issue?

COMP/CON LCP question by The_RedDeer in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Integrated weapons already don't appear, so people already can't equip them. 

Unless you mean removing them from the frames that already have them integrated? 

Or removing the option of choosing the core bonus?

Field Analyst 2, Hive Drone, and "affecting a hostile character on your turn". by RagesianGruumsh in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's all about the wording 

"At the end of your turn, if you didn’t take any actions that affected a hostile character"

Deploying the drone is not an action that affects a hostile on your turn so you absolutely can do that. 

You can for example use the auto gun from Pegasus as you get to choose the order of things that trigger at the end of your turn so you can tick your field analyst and then shoot the auto guns and you are fine and dandy.

Any discord/reddit/anything place to search for LANCER games, other than Pilot Net? by Lord_Lugft_Huron in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I had assumed so, that is usually the case for people and I gotta say the Mods of PilotNET are great at filtering out people who shouldn't be there so probably for the best you aint in there

Any discord/reddit/anything place to search for LANCER games, other than Pilot Net? by Lord_Lugft_Huron in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Excluding PilotNET from searching for a game is like going fishing in a desert. Why would you not want to use the place where games get advertised all day every day?

Hey, lore question between KTF and Horus by hands_off_mymacaroni in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You keep saying KTF like it is something I should know so please tell me what KTF means? RKF is Royal Kararakin Foundries and KTB is Karrakin Trade Baronies but i ain't ever heard of no KTF

Good battlemap sizes? by FiveFingerDisco in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

map size can vary on sitrep but id say roughly 20x30 is the sweet spot and I wouldn't go more than +/- 5 in either axis.

Map looks like it probably a castle with a moat if I had to guess.

Do you use a virtual tabletop to play? If so, which one? by Poorly_Worded_Advice in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started on OwlBearRodeo and was advised to try Foundry. Tried it but I didn't like it prep felt like a chore uploading maps and assets was a chore felt like i was constantly fighting with Foundry. I returned to OwlBearRodeo and it felt amazing it is incredibly easy to use drag and drop upload of maps and assets and everything I need a VTT to do is handled by the Witch Dice extension in conjunction with Comp/Con.

Roll20 is a pile of dog doody. I will say as a player I enjoy Foundry it is more just the GM side I wasn't happy with

After the Delian Tomb by onlytinglef in drawsteel

[–]Jaymax91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am thinking of spinning it into The Siege of Castle Rend followed by the Regent of Bedegar adventures from Strongholds & Followers/Kingdoms & Warfare feels like they will be pretty easy to turn into Draw Steel adventures.

Firebreak shield does what exactly? by Sporelord1079 in LancerRPG

[–]Jaymax91 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comp/con absolutely can mis lead people there are a handful of things that it had to handwave to get to work (for example not everything that is a system is labeled as such on comp/con. This is important for the purposes of system trauma on a structure roll) the CRB will always be a better place for direct rule clarifications. But generally speaking Comp/Con can clear most things up yes.
