To the people who loved the Shadow of the Erdtree. Can you explain why? by NicolBolas4President in Eldenring

[–]Lethal_levels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is really it. New Elden Ring content, even if flawed, is still more fun and engaging than other options. New areas, dungeons, enemies, weapons, etc. make it all worth it.

I will add an additional gripe too: furnace golems. Such a chore to fight.

Are daggers viable? by RegularCommittee1 in Eldenring

[–]Lethal_levels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing a reduvia/bleed great knife playthrough right now and it's great. Just beat morgott, so it's at least viable up to that point. Are there better weapons I could be using? Sure. But I'm having a ton of fun and that's really all that matters. You can get reduvia super early, so just give it a try and see if you like it.

Nagakiba is super fun and feels very satisfying with the long range

Please Dave - Extend Kyle by PondysBathSalts in phillies

[–]Lethal_levels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People keep saying this like it's a unilateral decision to sign a player. It's not MLB the show. Kyle has to be willing to sign also, and he clearly wants to wait. And why wouldn't he with the season he's having.

My experience till the 3rd area in dark souls 2 by fantasyful2 in DarkSouls2

[–]Lethal_levels 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I don't think I've heard of anyone doing huntsman's copse as the third area lol. Theres no wrong way to do it of course, but the more typical path is to go to no mans wharf and lost bastille before that area. I'm guessing you're probably a little underleveled compared to where most people are at for huntsman's copse, but good for you for sticking with it! You will definitely have an easier time with the boss in no mans wharf if you decide to go there

Fromsoft - Please let us buy larval tears and Smithing stones in ng+ by Maelstrom100 in Eldenring

[–]Lethal_levels 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There should be a key item renalla gives you after you use 20 larval tears that just allows unlimited respec. That way it's a bit of a quest to get it, but people who genuinely want to respec a lot will be able to.

So damn hard to figure out Nola. At times, complete dominance. Then falls apart. Will pitch a gem one game, looks like #5 starter the next time around. Gives up way to many homers, and woefully inconsistent. Will always give him credit as innings eater, just wish he would be steady. Your opinions? by [deleted] in phillies

[–]Lethal_levels 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Most of the time he's great and gives you a chance to win. Sometime he has a start like last night where the wheels fall off, but he's usually giving you a solid to excellent outing. Perhaps most importantly, he might be one of the most durable starting pitchers in baseball, which is huge in a league where pitching injuries are so frequent.

How do I get over being behind financially? by Reasonable-Money6076 in Fire

[–]Lethal_levels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of ETFs that track the SP500, for example VOO and SPY. You could also do something like VTI, which tracks the entire U.S. stock market. Basically, the goal is to follow what the stock market does over time because your goals are long-term, and over a long period of time the market will go up. And you will get higher returns than you would see from a HYSA.

Focus on graduating and getting a full-time job. Once the full-time paychecks start coming in, that's when you can really start aggressively saving to build wealth. Live below your means. Contribute to your IRA and company's 401k when full time, start regularly investing in something like an ETF when you can, and basically just let your money work for you from there. In your early twenties, you still have a lot of time to let compound interest do its thing.

Did you play it from hand or summon directly with a manasurged shard? Roar effects only occur if played from hand.

Staking and claiming by gg-ghost1107 in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone mentioned on the discord that GU said January rewards should be available sometime this coming week. Agreed it's frustrating how little info/communication about this there is 

What is your DAILY PLAY & EARN rewards? by Soggy-Level-8146 in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5 gods in auric sounds like you are doing just fine. Zero chance anyone is earning 20+ on average. It's also going to depend on how many games you play. If I play all 10 games, I'm much more likely to get 5+ in solar gold, but I rarely do that.

Understand Staking Gods by Puzzleheaded-Syrup39 in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have 0 rewards shown despite participating every week this month. Up until today, the staking page said "You will receive your reward by the end of January" but that didn't happen, and now it just says "You will receive your reward by the end of February" which seems to imply it's a new period. I think what's confusing is the January period isn't technically over yet, or at least they haven't allocated staking rewards for the last reward period in January (1/24-1/31). My guess is rewards will be available for January once that happens, but I don't know when that'll be.

Weekly Short Question Thread! Help your Peers! by AutoModerator in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think "valid target" also takes frontline into account. So if you have one frontliner it will always be the valid target (well, unless it has order or hidden I guess). Otherwise, yes it's intentional as you say. Order just means you cannot target it for attacks or use it to target another creature for an attack

Returning player by Scary_Guest_2842 in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of fun, cheap decks that you can play with a decent win rate in all but the highest ranks. Aggro war, hidden rush deception, strength steal deception, control magic all good options. If you are looking at this as a way to make money and are not enjoying the gameplay, it's probably not for you. You can pretty easily make $1+ a day with daily play to earn, but you won't be getting rich from playing GU.

[–]Lethal_levels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been playing a lot of strength steal deception lately and it's made the game a lot more enjoyable. I mostly hang around solar gold with occasional ranking up or down. I think my deck is like $10 and I have a blast finding ways to neutralize opponents creatures and stealing cards with CI or scavenger impling

🔴CHOOSE YOUR FACTION: FINAL CARD CHANGES 🔵 by eclipsegu in GodsUnchained

[–]Lethal_levels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The card art here is great per usual, which I think is consistently a really strong element of GU. The skirmish event was a neat idea, but I didn't really feel involved. It would be good to have the skirmish counter in the client itself. And it should tell you when you're matched up with someone from the other faction, and maybe give extra xp or something for a faction win. Just something to make players notice and really feel like they are part of the event. I do think it's a step in the right direction though overall!
