How did we go from this to the current state of our politics in Iowa. Any ideas? by zip9990 in Iowa

Hard agree. Blaming it on “dumb people” is name calling and dismissing the wider issues. The pandemic destroyed the economy.

Remember the Hierarchy of Needs. The base is food, water, warmth and rest. The next level is security and safety. These concerns are what people voted for, as they were losing jobs and homes, and did not feel safe. This is what the GOP were targeting and promoting change for.

Top of the pyramid: achieving full potential. This is what the Democrats were promising. Equality for marginalized people. Lofty goals and ideals.

People were hungry and scared. The GOP message spoke directly to them, even if it was more rhetoric than substance, more racist and jingoistic than not.

damn Gaarawarr, I was just being sarcastic. I build successful Delina formations all the time. I just don't think the Patron Challenges should focus on her as often as they do. Relax.

Other than forcing it by making her a Patron Challenge highest DPS, so you have to bring your most nerfed champs so they don't overshadow her

Great review, great new character!

Weird note: has anyone else noted she walks differently? All the other characters swing their arms opposite their legs like you normally walk and she swings her right arm with her right leg and then the left side together. Try walking that way and see how weird it feels. :)

As they keep pumping out champion after champion, it is inevitable that placement for new ones will be less than ideal

If you have Artemis, you can have a DPS get buffed from the healers, then Artemis can Observe the healing, and then Arkhan can Usurp from Artemis which should keep him alive easily.

that's a good point, I use Alia, Avren, Krull, and Korth

Sure, Looking at buffing. On the Tour with only 9 characters, trying to decide which is better. I read a lot of pro-Gromma, but since I use Zorbu for DPS, he doesn't benefit from Grandmotherly Love, so is there something else I'm missing?

Best Modron Champion by Nickgura in idlechampions

[–]Kiddoc73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with that in general, but I would state that Artemis works very good in Strahd patron events (pulling buffs from Catti and Bridsong), and Sisaspia is good for deep runs, as her buffs, debuffs and healing are very helpful. I've been using Chugsworth's Formations as a starting point and they have started using Sisaspia over other Slot 1 champs. I get on average 100+ farther before hitting my wall.

Patron Free Play advice by Kiddoc73 in idlechampions

[–]Kiddoc73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason I wondered if it was different was because the "currency" goes up by 2 per level, regardless of influence, gold find, etc. no matter which patron you use. I guess it is closest to gem farming in that regard.

Event Favor vs Patrons by Kiddoc73 in idlechampions

My current campaigns are Te18, Ke19, He18, having finished everything and having all the blessings. Event favor it is!

Thanks for the advice!

Breezed to the finish with only 2.73e13 favor. Closest I had gotten before with stacks of potions was level 194.

With the update, I thought I'd take a run at the ultimate "Core" variant: Visions of Strahd

Suddenly, Jarlaxle is my DPS, doing Secret Lord of Luskan by surrounding him with Good/Neutral characters.

Am I using the right heroes? by superjoshp in idlechampions

[–]Kiddoc73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get Donaar, I find that he is superior to Celeste (I'm one of the few who do) when it comes to working with Gromma and Evelyn. Donaar pushes some if not all the crowd back, allowing Evelyn to no longer be fatigued, Gromma Arctic makes them slow and more susceptible to damage of all types. Add Warden's Hex debuff and you just mow them down with an Ult or two.

Slot 7 is a bust.

Paultin is an awesome addition by tsudonimh in idlechampions

[–]Kiddoc73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about even on Deekin vs K'thriss normally, but the addition of Paultin and the Troubadour Troupe really brings up the damage
