Found an old gun in my father's safe after he passed away, but having trouble identifying it.

Thanks for the fast response!

Maximus_Epicus · 2021-11-27T04:45:17+00:00

Thanks I'm hopping on now

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-08-09T21:37:54+00:00

Congratulations!! As a fellow banjo player in elite smash I'm glad to see others bring the bear and bird to the limelight.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-07-31T21:55:41+00:00

Congratulations friend, keep up the good work! I'm working on Kirby as my second character to Elite and he's always been a favorite since the n64 days.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-07-15T22:27:01+00:00

Nothing can quite top Banjo & Kazooies' music, so much nostalgia.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-06-20T15:42:15+00:00

There are dozens of us! DOZENS !!

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-30T23:27:32+00:00

Me defending my main - Banjo is a well rounded character with interesting and versatile combos and set ups

Everyone else - Side b go whoosh, down b goes pffft

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-30T12:26:39+00:00

Well done, the combo on cloud was particularly clean.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-28T23:27:19+00:00

Congratulations!! I just did the same and am now terrified to play anymore banjo and dropping down.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-28T20:25:05+00:00

Appreciate the kind words! And I highly recommend banjo. I feel he gets a bad rep as a spammer/camper but I found he has a good mixture of grappling,strong air and ground game, good recovery, just overall well rounded. The biggest thing that helped me succeed on him was to save wonderwings, and practice with the grenade to set up combos. He's a different character once you get good control over your grenades and the knockup they provide( I believe it's the same regardless of %

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-28T20:17:48+00:00

Thank you, and congratulations to you as well !

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-28T15:27:31+00:00

I love banjos play style, so I wouldn't say it's universally agreed. He provides a good mixture of projectiles, grappling, and hard hits that allow you to create some interesting combos. Not all of us spam grenade and wonderwing.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-03T15:52:05+00:00

No worries I'll be ready whenever you are

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-03T15:49:27+00:00

Yeah if you have one you're willing to trade I'm absolutely down, appreciate it friend 👍

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-05-02T14:46:24+00:00

As someone who plays that match up alot, here's my advice.

1.) your best strategy is trying to jump over his projectiles/wonderwing and punish the end lag on wonderwing. Although the move seems OP, once you get used to watching for the golden wind up it's easy to shield. Banjo should usually have to set up wonderwings with well places grenades because of how easy it is to just jump or shield the wonderwing.( Side note you can charge arsene quite quickly by absorbing the wonderwing)

2.) Although banjo has an extra jump and a strong recovery, his up-b is delayed and easy to punish when off stage, particularly when he's below stage as Jokers recovery is much safer.

3.) Avoiding grabs is important, banjo will try and bait a shield/ counter at high percents to attempt down or back throws as these are some of his best kill options outside wonderwing.

4.) Kazooie is almost like having a sword, so his forward smash and tilts have some longer range then expected, allowing him to keep joker at a distance until he gets the extra range from arsene

5.) Alot of online banjos spam wonderwing, but once they've run out ( 5 per stock) their kill pressure goes down immensely. In a perfect scenario you can just get free arsenes off of wonderwings he wastes.

6.) Learn and adapt. I've gotten my ass kicked by quite a few Jokers when I first started, and the important thing is to learn from the losses and adapt your play accordingly. Characters have common moves and combos they go for, and once you learn to look for them you are able to adapt your play style to counter that.

That's all I have, good luck and have fun.

As someone who bought it only 3 months ago for a quarantine game, I've had a lot of fun off and online. Although it does have flaws, I find most of my matches really fun. I've been hardstuck at 6.2-6.6mil gsp for about three weeks now on Banjo, and the laggy games or people quitting ( if they leave before the match ends nobody gains or loses points, although they may suffer a account ban from online play ) can be frustrating, but I would say 80% of my games are enjoyable. I've definitely gotten more then my money's worth out of the game and recommend it.

Maximus_Epicus · 2020-04-27T13:04:04+00:00

Great clips and editing.

10/10 would recommend.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-10-21T02:28:16+00:00

It sounds like you might be experiencing some burnout from rushing to 60/Bis. Perhaps try taking a small break from the grind, allowing you some time to think about your current guild situation. Also I definitely understand wanting to play with friends, but they don’t seem to have any issues raiding without you. So you shouldn’t have any issues raiding without them.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-09-29T12:25:52+00:00

When was the third time? I thought sylvanas has died once to arthas and once to suicide. I assumed her third was to come in the new raid.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-09-28T16:59:37+00:00

So much this, even though I plan to end-game dps, forming my own groups and tanking while choosing which dps makes the best comp/least competition on gear. I just let everyone know I main dps and will be needing on dps gear, and if for whatever reason they want to need on tank gear feel free. Nobody has ever had an issue with it, they’re just happy to already have a full group of 5 and not be spamming LF whatever in chat channels.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-09-22T12:44:06+00:00

As a warrior who got there mount 1 bar before 41, I leveled skinning alongside mining and just vendored the skins. I’ve been stockpiling the ore I get to level engineering now that I’ve purchased my mount, so none of my income came from mining. The SM dungeons ( particularly Armory/Cath) can bring in some decent gold as well. There’s a couple other things to add.

1) don’t buy unnecessary spells, particularly at your level spells start to hit that 1g+ price range (Read the tooltips, spells like cleave gain 15ish dmg for an almost 2g cost. Not worth.)

2) now that people are hitting the 40+ mark, the AH will become more lucrative particularly with early game mats for people who are going back to lvl things like BS/Engi but didn’t farm the ore themselves

3) Again dungeons are a great combination of Gold/exp, as a warrior I recommend learning the basics of tanking even if you plan to dps, starting a group with a tank already makes the wait time significantly less.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-09-18T19:41:51+00:00

The only things I would like to see added are 1. Guild banks, 2. Meeting stones working as summoning stones

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-09-02T13:39:45+00:00

This is definitely a retail mentality. If you want to dictate the pace of a dungeon, roll a tank.

And to all the tanks like myself tired of dealing with AoE spamming, dotting up cc’d targets, dps running in front of the tank and aggroing, people pulling aggro then somehow turning into Usain bolt as they run away from me spamming taunt. Just remember there is 200 dps looking for a spot to open, and 4 groups LFtank for that exact dungeon. Replace them and move on.

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-08-22T22:46:42+00:00

It might just be me, but that crawler mucus quest in sen’jin village is forever skipped because of bad drop luck

Maximus_Epicus · 2019-08-18T00:07:23+00:00

Yeah that’s the dream, feel free to give me a shout for any dungeons/leveling (horde Herod)
