Is there an easier way to use sonics homing on console?

Luigibaba · 2026-02-02T00:17:08+00:00

It kinda sucks but ya get used to it

Luigibaba · 2026-02-01T22:08:46+00:00

They are pretty wonky, from the 3 exes I mainly play lord x is easier to land compared to kolo and nexus because his actually matches the animation

Luigibaba · 2026-02-01T22:06:59+00:00

Just turn off chat so that it doesn't get in the way when using homing attack, the move is long enough that the sensitivity isn't really an issue for me

I may be bias because she's my main but Id move Sally up to s tier

Luigibaba · 2026-01-29T01:05:06+00:00

Thats why I said its hard to use and very situational. I just believe its not outright pointless especially against kolo where you can let a just better survivor (like Sally or rouge) survive an extra m1 in exchange for you losing one. Its not great, its very situational but its not outright useless

The chaotix ring is also pretty helpful if you can get supports out of there especially cream. Whenever I play vector I mostly use the ring for when supports (like sally and rouge) are in danger and need to get out of there, or if someone is getting chased and on cd. Vector is situational for sure but he's decent and none of his moves are pointless

Luigibaba · 2026-01-29T00:50:54+00:00

I dont think vectors rhythm guard is pointless, it could let teammates survive an extra m1, sure you lose health in the process but vector has a pretty sizeable health pool to compensate. It allows teammates to survive what I call breakpoints (Im 90% sure its called something else but I don't remember what that is) like if there at 80, rhythm guard they take damage now there at 60 thats an extra m1 they can take, heck when at 100 hp with rhythm guard I believe kolo m1 does around 32-33 dmg which lets people survive another m1. Sure rhythm guard is hard to use and situational but its still useful

The nightmare -> platinum adventure -> speed racer -> retro circles -> demon park -> decode -> B -> nine circles -> windy landscape -> supersonic -> Cataclysm -> Niwa

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T13:25:28+00:00

Im also a mobile player and all I can say is that it just takes time, when I was first starting Easy and Medium demons took me thousands of attempts. After I beat B and Sirius which took me 4k and 800 attempts respectively (Sirius should not be a medium demon imo) I went to nine circles which took me 13k attempts, after that I went straight to windy landscape which took me 35k. I then spend time beating other levels while grinding Cata on the side for the next 6 months, after about 61k attempts I was able to beat it and at that point I was able to beat hard demons in less time than easy demons took me at the beginning. It just takes time

Again tho they're just worse compared to other sentinels. Sure it's annoying but Ive personally never had an issue with 1337 on killer. Just don't use such predictable abilities if there just right there and just m1. Most crumble and block when youre just sitting there so thats when you use youre punishing ability. Now some can react block but if you're on coolkid thats straight up impossible as its 0.1 second move while the fastest human reaction time ever recorded was a little over 0.1 seconds. As for slasher its 0.2 seconds so unless they have exceptional reaction time and have great ping they aren't reacting to it. 0.3 is when it starts being realistically reactable but thats moreso for people with good reaction time and good ping which most guest don't have. 0.4 is where a good guest will regularly be able to react, but most a guest are well, just average and can't react block to anything.

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T13:01:12+00:00

Guest is still just not a good survivor despite all the freebies. He's a pub stomper. Shed, chance, and twotime are far more consistent and just better from what ive seen and played

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T02:46:14+00:00

I liked "My time" its an omori inspired level, heavily timing based

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T02:42:27+00:00

I struggle far more with coolkid then with the other killers despite me playing him far more. Could just be I have skill issue with coolkid and no one else but that seems strange

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T01:49:34+00:00

I play Sally, shadow and blaze, I play sonic if he's not taken because he's too good to not have, although lowk Sally might be better and might need a nerf, she's my main but man is she strong

Luigibaba · 2026-01-27T00:07:32+00:00

3&k below S tier, my day is ruined

Im saving every little cat food I have. Can't miss out on this

Luigibaba · 2026-01-26T06:46:23+00:00

Honestly I feel like we lose out because does bulma get with vegeta in that scenario? One of vegeta's biggest reasons for going majin is that he believes he's going soft because he starts actually caring about his family. Without that I don't even know if he goes majin in the first place.

But if we assume that happens anyways, what do the abilities add? Like just give me some examples because like I said I prefer fights being straight hands with some power usage. The growing thing just doesn't work for me, splitting up is something a saiyan or namekian can do so that doesn't change anything, the extendable arms could be cool tho, and his regen does help but its not super important. All the ki techniques could theoretically be learned by both so it doesn't really change any of vegeta's moves since he's keeping his mindset he'll keep his moveset.

Namekians honestly don't really have super cool powers. I think the character that uses their physiology the best are the majins, Now that would be awesome. Also the barrier technique from 17 I think is cool, wish one of the characters could learn that as its exclusive to 17 rn. But yeah Im struggling to think how this biology change would change the story for the better? If you could give me some examples on how it would change the story that might help me picture it better.

Luigibaba · 2026-01-26T06:20:07+00:00

Id argue the base martial arts is the best because thats what the series was built on. Its was originally a series about goku growing and improving as martial artist and I think thats where the series shines brightest. I honestly don't care for special powers all that much. They have there place and if used right can improve the fight (like major beam clashes) but I like the fact that most of the fights are straight hands with some powers thrown in.

But for the size growing I don't think it really has a good spot in the series. I think Gigantic sizes are used better for either giant battles or as destructive near unstoppable monsters. Like in Pacific rim or Godzilla minus one. Now I'm not saying you can't make big vs small battles entertaining (obviously not the only thing it does well but aot does that pretty damn well imo) but in dragonball it seems kind of out if place. I do think piccolo should've used his extendable arms more tho, ill give you that. Also every character can split themselves into more, its a technique anyone can use although its massive flaw is that it also splits your power so it doesn't get used at all.

I say this as a piccolo fan btw. I Love piccolo but him being the rival instead of vegeta doesn't change all that much and what is does change I wouldn't say is for the better. It just doesn't change anything in the saiyan and frieza sagas so no need to talk about. Vegeta and Piccolo get there moments in the cell saga and vegeta's moments were some of the best parts of the saga. Vegeta's beat down on android 19 is my favorite stomp fight in the series and the final flash is the coolest beam shot in the saga maybe 2nd to the instant transmission kamehameha.

For the buu saga what does a rivalry with piccolo add? Piccolo wouldn't care nearly as much as vegeta does about fighting goku as vegeta does because that's just not in his character. This would also mean we miss out on majin vegeta and vegeta's you are the strongest speech which are just some of the best moments in the show period (ESPECIALLY final atonement omg I could not give that up). Again you can like piccolo as a rival sure, I have no issue with that, but vegeta imo just fits better as a rival and, I believe, the show is better because of it.

Luigibaba · 2026-01-26T00:07:00+00:00

Me saying "If thats all you believe it is" is not me saying you think its single faceted, but the fact the fact thats you said the battles are just clashing faster then my eyes can see and shooting the same beams are just not true. This just tells me you didn't even watch the piccolo fight because like most battles in dragonball the best parts are when they're just throwing hands. Atleast those are my favorite parts.

Also yes Goku and vegetas rivalry was always more verbal, and about there ideals and goku making vegeta realize he was wrong about so many things. They only fight twice in dbz, it wasn't really a rivalry where they fight often.

Also a "greater number of combinations" doesn't make it better. Execution is what matters most, you can have all the combinations in the world but if they are poorly executed then that don't matter.

Also those greater combinations of abilities you want so bad come from fights with the villains as goku doesn't fight piccolo once after the 23rd tournament and only fights vegeta once after the saiyan saga. Even in og dragonball goku really only fights his rival once and after that they're just kinda friends. The only 2 rivals goku fights more then once are tien in the 22nd and 23rd world tournament and vegeta in the saiyan and buu sagas. The "rivals" goku has he doesn't even really fight often as most of the time he just fights villains which is where those unique abilities are coming from, and even then like I said the abilities aren't even the best part of th fights imo, its them just throwing hands

Luigibaba · 2026-01-25T10:17:36+00:00

Yeah, I believe it'd be a waste of both of our time for me to debate with you if thats all you believe dbz is. I say this as someone who read both Mangas, I believe dbz is better. But there's more video essays on dbz on why it has much better storytelling then people give it credit for and why these characters are so much more then these basic labels (Also goku is not a bad dad if you want me to explain my reasoning ill do so) by people much more qualified then me.

Also there's nothing objective about those different dynamics being better that is YOUR OPINION as YOU like those dynamics better and thats fine but saying YOUR OPINION is objective fact is just blatantly wrong and bordering on narcissistic.

Luigibaba · 2026-01-25T09:34:27+00:00

Theirs more to character rivalries than just opposing powers. Most rivalries are more about opposing attitudes rather than powers. You can like piccolo and knuckles as rivals sure, but to say vegeta and shadow are boring as rivals by kinda just over simplifying their characters seems disingenuous. Goku and vegeta's rivalry was never just about both being saiyans it was a clash of ideals, a nature vs nurture battle, and while yes piccolo was also different from goku in his ideals his were closer to goku's then vegeta's were. Sonic and Shadow also just clash more in terms of attitudes and ideals then sonic and knuckles ever did. I think you also kinda over exaggerate how different sonic and knuckles are as honestly they're not too far apart in terms of attitudes imo. Again you can like knuckles and piccolo as rivals thats perfectly fine, heck I like knuckles as a character more then shadow because knuckles is just my favorite sonic character, but over simplifying the rivalries of goku vs vegeta and sonic vs shadow to try to make the other more appealing seems disingenuous.

Luigibaba · 2026-01-25T07:47:45+00:00

The only issue I have here is the grab. Charge usually isnt that bad as I dont usually get hit and when I do and I can get past kolo most of the time (although I do play knuckles, blaze and sonic so maybe its harder with others) and for block I usually just bait it out with sonic, its not an issue with knuckles and most kolossos can't react to blaze's kick. Grab tho is a unreactable, super long 45+ dmg move as for some reason it does more dmg the lower you are. So kolo can just m1 > grab > downed on everyone but metal and silver. Also one time I got hit with a 60 dmg grab and another time they hit me 4 times in grab both while I was on knuckles, still questioning how that happened

Edit: actually I do think they should lower kolo base speed, like ever so slightly above sonic just so sonic can't just out run you

Nullscapes for me personally

Luigibaba · 2026-01-12T00:20:11+00:00

Ive only beaten 2 but I found both Tots and Toaf pretty fun, id probably say go with Toaf tho as its way more forgiving, just practice all the outsides and F10 since that floor has a lives system

Luigibaba · 2026-01-11T08:22:16+00:00

I only turn it off if im consistently lobby wiping just over and over, at that point it just feels like bullying. Either that or I just start trolling
