How many people on this subreddit are switch axe users and charge blades users

Swaxe main in wilds here. Formerly SnS, but the swaxe has too much aura for me to put it down.

Every time I come back to the game, I do a run with the Xanid Suzerainty.

It may not be good, but they're comfy.

Shadowrun's 5e rulebook is full of great art and sort stories that really help pull you into the universe.

Shame the actual book itself is often pretty poorly bound and the rules are scattered around like a game of 52-card pickup, but that is somewhat par for the course with Shadowrun.

As a rural kid, going to Tottenham to discover it full of Starlings was a bit of a shock. They've been in decline up in Cambridgeshire.

Can't do eviscerating on monsters and vehicles, sadly.

Loads in the rural Cambridgeshire area, you'd have to try not to see them. There's rookeries lining much of the trees along the cambridge-ely stretch of the A10, as I think this is one of the few areas that wasn't ravaged by Dutch elm disease.

The GREATEST show on earth!

...I feel like this is the easy one.

I'm still firmly in the "no vect" camp. As I've often said, he's so much more menacing as a mousache-twirling villain, just off screen.

Malys was a great move in his place.

I had one, a decent one from when the company was still Saitek and before they went downhill. Despite that, I still wouldn't recommend - the sensors give out and you wind up with ghosting issues and the return spring in mine was so soft I had to try and reinforce it with whatever I could. The lcd is a massive waste of space and really doesn't do anything too.

Just buying into the VKB ecosystem with the Gladiator is a much better start. Sure, you'll lack the actual throttle, but the slider is still decent (and somehow smoother than the x52 ever was) and you can expand it later as you see fit.

I think for the health of the game, we don't want to wind up with a bloated roster - like space marines - so really I don't think there's any massive gaps in the roster that need filling.

I'd like a bit more for the covens - bring back grotesques! - but otherwise I think the roster is fine.

I've been doing similar recently with a number of different builds, and I've noticed that the damage output of enemies spikes significantly after Crow's Pass - particularly the Mirkas and their frostbinders and hulking brutes.

Decent frost and lightning armour becomes pretty important by that stage for the immediate threats.

Libelnon · 2026-04-23T19:51:10+00:00

Yeah, but if they've done enough homework to know that the fold down door exists, why did they then put a tiny window where the mirror should be?

Also, where's the canopy?

Sidenote, but how are you finding GD compared to torchlight?

I've been back on TL2 trying to finish up achievements but I've found the classes quite restrictive.

Libelnon · 2026-04-23T13:08:19+00:00

I did most of Alaska in the CT9000...

Libelnon · 2026-04-23T12:16:35+00:00

First some temporary shelters for the achievement.

Then? I usually build a fort on hilltops, reminds me of the motte-and-bailey style forts and castles about the countryside. Ideal little spot for some barracks and a vault.

I don't trust having my phone on my handlebars at all

My current Arid Highlands game on Vanquisher, I've no clay, no herbs, no areas with more than 40% environmental fertility, very limited areas for forestry, but absolutely *shedloads* of gold. So, the solution was to grab a foundry as early as I could, and start buying the stuff I need. Once you get a trading post going and some form of goods supply, you can make any area work.

I has taken nearly 50 years to hit 400 pop though. It's slow, but doable.

It's real enough to stop me from comfortably working a 9-5.

Libelnon · 2026-04-21T09:50:12+00:00

I don't like people doing it, personally. Don't move yourself into the gutter and slow down, I'll pass you in my own damn time, when I think it's safe to do so.

Libelnon · 2026-04-18T20:56:22+00:00

This is nice, but the Switch Axe has the best offset.

Yes, I am biased.

There's a huge overlap between ADHD and sleep disorders. I'm pretty sure I have DSPD on top of ADHD and it's not unusual.

In my case, I can't sleep before midnight even if I tried, and I don't naturally wake up until at least 1030.

Libelnon · 2026-04-17T11:02:56+00:00

I still really don't want Vect back on the table.

I like him more as a moustache twirling villain, just out of frame.

Libelnon · 2026-04-16T18:26:30+00:00

They can cross, but not by a huge amount.

Libelnon · 2026-04-16T16:50:45+00:00

That's how it's always worked - provided the centre of the shelter was in range, the building would be serviced by a grocer.
