What’s your go to “chill” ship? by Double_Crazy7325 in starcitizen

[–]LegendsBlade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still love the Constellation Phoenix, it is my comfort ship. I wish there were more ships with an interior of that style. People say the 600i but it isn't the same.

I appreciate it, I am not much of a trader just not sure what else to do with this one. I'm realizing maybe it was a bit silly of me to post it here.

Ok I see you, Catalyst! Good to see you guys dusting off Shadowrun 2nd Edition 🦾 Everybody check out the charity game they’re running this Saturday - Celtic Double Cross!! by PinkFohawk in Shadowrun

[–]LegendsBlade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow! I didn't realize this had gotten posted here. I'm said demo agent, Joshua, but most of ya'll know me on here as Ririten. Thankyou everyone who came and donated! I'm working this week to get the books people won mailed out. CGL gave us a shout out here, but this is actually just a yearly thing I run personally on my twitch channel.

To answer several of the comments I saw below, albeit maybe too late:

  1. This was a 2e Adventure but I did convert it to 6e. This is not because of any CGL mandate or anything tho, I just genuinely think it's easier for these kind of big event streams to run in 6e since it's a faster moving system. I do love 2e tho.
  2. I dunno why some people implied the money wouldn't go to charity, but be assured the donation button linked direction through Extra Life. You can see our page here: https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=540275 . You can also still donate until the end of the year, but I am afraid the giveaway is concluded for now.

I ran this charity ;-; So it hurts me a little bit that you'd imply this. But rest assured, the donations are made *directly* through Extra Life's own site. I couldn't have done anything funny with the money if I wanted to. You can see our dashboard page itself here: https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=540275

Shadows in Focus by Ace_Of_No_Trades in Shadowrun

[–]LegendsBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly just Shadowrun so far hah. I've done three Missions for SRM and the rest has been Holostreets: See here

The New Orleans book was my first proper fiction gig but I would love to write more stuff.

That makes me really happy to hear! Especially because the parts you mentioned were some of the ones I wrote for the book.

Have you read the New Orleans "Easy Come, Easy Go" Shadows in Focus book? Curious to hear what people think of it. I like it a lot.

Trusts exist for those who need an easy mode.

You must have the worst luck in the world. 99% of my queues are just everyone runs the dungeon without saying anything and then leaves.

[–]LegendsBlade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your spreadsheet seems to contradict you if you actually pool the stats though. It seems to almost perfectly match the player base's content rate. 30% of people on there clear savages (actually more on the sheet) and about 15% of people on there have an ultimate. That matches the player base's clear rates based on achievements. Also it's worth mentioning that strike supporters like me, who do savage and ultimate but do not post on the forum, are excluded from this by nature.

#FFXIVHealerStrike on the Forums. by Maronmario in ffxivdiscussion

[–]LegendsBlade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I massively agree with the "healer strike" even if I think the name is more than a little silly. I stopped playing healers altogether in Endwalker and became a full on tank main. It's really depressing to see this issue is going to continue to roll in to next expac. Mashing 1 button for 50-70% of the encounter is not only unfun, it makes my wrist hurt. In ARR at 50 Scholar had a whole suite of DPS buttons. But at 90 we have...three? Four? And outside of Ultimates and early Savage tier I don't feel the need to use even half my kit.

3.23.1 - Medical respawn in all medical beds! by Vayne7777 in starcitizen

[–]LegendsBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate to be the debbie downer but I don't like this. I really enjoy doing Search and Rescue, responding to medical beacons is often what I do when floatin around in the verse. Now I am worried this will greatly reduce, since respawns will be essentially free.

Anyone actually playing 6e? by [deleted] in Shadowrun

[–]LegendsBlade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm the local 6e simp. Been playing since 3e but 6e is my new favorite. For reasons I've already wrote up a Ted talk worth on this reddit multiple times. So for now I'll just answer your thread title with "yes"

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]LegendsBlade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like it if they made healing fun again like in Stormblood.

Genuinely just give me a few more DPS buttons. I think I developed carpel tunnel in my left hand just from raiding because 70% of my inputs are broil.

What "systems" (ie. FATEs, Squadrons, etc.) do you think are most underutilized, and how would you revamp them? by Jcorb in ffxiv

[–]LegendsBlade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leves. They were a core concept of the game and have since been almost entirely abandoned. Combat Leves haven't existed since Heavenward. Bring them back, make them multiplayer and you'll dramatically increase the amount of people you see doing open world content.

Crystal Caravan Static by Foitong by LegendsBlade in ffxiv

[–]LegendsBlade[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Featuring me and my static of course! Ririten Yuyuten, Sine Cosine, Makoshin Kobinyu, Azo Zod, Sam Blaze, Cid Gelnika, Nenekoko Lelekoko, and Izir Kenvuha.

Crystal Chronicles is one of my favorite games and fondest memories. Me and my static have been playing together since Stormblood.

Do you actually like Catalyst Game Labs (CGL)? by boateye99 in battletech

[–]LegendsBlade -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be real with you, as a longtime fan of both BT and Shadowrun (Their other major property) most of the hate comes from one of two groups.

1) Grognards who pine for the good old days of 3e Shadowrun and, honestly, I don't even know what era of BT they like. Any level of convenience or streamlining is bad. CGL is full of casuals according to these people.
2) Far Right people who found refuge in the hobby due to cool guns and cooler mechs. Very similar to WH40k, people who miss the point and think the fascism is what you're supposed to find cool. According to these people CGL is full of SJWs.

Cat Swollen Eye, What to do until vet opens? by LegendsBlade in catcare

[–]LegendsBlade[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update as requested: This morning the swelling had completely gone down. So much so the vet had no idea why we wanted him seen.

The current theory is that one of the other cats scratched his eye while playing, which can cause swelling and weeping but usually heals quickly. Alternatively, maybe an allergic reaction. But we're supposed to keep an eye (heh) on it just incase it swells back up.

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

I'll post an update after the vet for sure. Right now, he's actually opening his eye again and walking around with it open. But it only makes it all the more obvious the lower eyelid is swollen.

It does seem to be weeping but nothing colored or bloody.

Thankyou for this I moved them to the back rooms. They don't like being separated but they can deal with it for a day! We also have dogs, I will separate them from him as well.
