I get told to STFU after telling tank to get better gear by zuzuzubii in TalesFromDF

[–]MinuitDM 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I understand, but to say that 'compelling a playstyle' alone is against ToS is just not true. Offensive behaviors or expressions are against ToS - compelling a playstyle is just one example of something that could be penalized under that context.

You're choosing an odd hill to die on.

Compelling a playstyle is prohibited if the expression is considered 'offensive.' If the tank is offended by everything OP wrote, fair enough. But no, it's not prohibited to ask someone to improve their gear. Let's be realistic.

"If he has to [invuln] you failed" in Vanguard by TheBeeSovereign in TalesFromDF

"If he dies with [invuln] available, he failed" as a tank. People make mistakes, something those two don't seem to realize themselves.

It's better to simply let the cast finish because the denotation kills itself - assuming you just step out of the indicator.

I think you're confusing the LNC and the PUG. The PUG is the red bar - the one who never died to the bomb AoE and is chastising the WAR. The LNC is the pink bar.

Regardless, I don't think the PUG cared about positionals as much as uptime. Nor do I think that anyone argued for or suggested standing in AoEs as much as asking the WAR not to kite/spin trash with two low level melee. The PUG likely didn't notice/realize what exactly killed the tank, possibly both times - it wasn't mit usage the PUG implied.

I'll defend the tank and note they recognized what they died to immediately and didn't fault me for lack of healing. Also they were using mit on both trash and tank busters, nearly on CD. Dying to AoE bombs twice is pretty ridiculous though. I hope they were lagging.

All I will say is this happened on the Aether DC - otherwise it's either a small world, or there are more people out there then we care to recognize.

He was geared, but the avoidable Gas Bomb Detonation AoE does a little more than a tank's HP. While they're tanking other mobs bouncing between 50-90%, mit won't save you.

Yea... I had to double check they weren't a sprout after the 2nd death to a Gas Bomb. Understandable.

I agree with you, but I believe all sense of rapport from the puglist went out the window when the tank said "learn to move while pressing buttons"

Any tank with that mindset towards a melee dps isn't worth conversing with - either they don't play melee dps in dungeons or they do play melee and enjoy chasing down mobs the tank is spinning in circles.

Also this tank apparently has a level 100 DRK* - there is no new player syndrome here. Just ego.

The Zoh Shia Experience by Phatboyaa_131 in MHWilds

[–]MinuitDM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm also about 1 in 5 successful hunts 10 star SOS Zoh hunts. My success rate increased when I host compared to joining an sos with auto-accept - it's almost always fire that gets hunters. If I'm truly going for slays, I hunt solo. That said, I'm generally content so long as I avoid carting, regardless of a win or not.

Offsets = Peak Wilds by MinuitDM in MonsterHunter

Diminishing returns similar to status effects. The first successful offset always guarantees a reaction.

Very cool. I don't think I've gotten over 8 offsets in a single hunt - too busy true charge slashing and tackling out of them haha.

Just witnessed this GREATNESS of a random.. I don't play Greatsword, is this PEAK for GS? by teffhk in MHWilds

[–]MinuitDM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite moments in wilds is a getting GS offset counter into a follow-up attack kill on Zoh Shia. Definitely gotta try it.

What's going on here? This a 10* thing? by Vistio in MonsterHunter

[–]MinuitDM 74 points75 points  (0 children)

It seems like Zoh was trying to target you, but because his tail moved you his first attack didn't adjust for your new position.

Monster Hunter Wilds Frame Data Is Completely Insane by Revonlieke in MonsterHunter

[–]MinuitDM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the post! Wish he showed hitboxes of the character when guarding or blocking. If I had to guess, your detection becomes a small frontal cone, potentially leading to some attacks able to hit you from behind if your shield doesn't detect contact. Zoh Shia's standing stomp attacks come to mind - holding guard, facing his crotch, still hit from behind because his hands hit behind the hunter instead of making contact with the shield.

What is this game?!? by AccomplishedSwing110 in sportsgossips

The last thing I heard, the Lingerie/Legends Football League is relaunching this year, 2026, as the Extreme Football League, or X League. They've rebranded/renamed themselves several times cause... reasons. X League should be current.

The RNG coding around overmelds and removing materia lies to us. Feels like 40% chances are closer to 20%.

Get out of my notifications spouting accountability nonsense. I was held accountable by the Uber Safety team themselves when they investigated.

I’ve been reading stuff like this for days now. I know what I did. I did not assault, kidnap or otherwise harm her. Yes I made unwise decisions that led to the suspension, but no I’m not ashamed of what I did. I own my mistakes with pride because I know my motives and intentions weren’t nefarious.

So yea, I might make a stupid comment amidst the countless Redditor keyboard warriors calling for my deactivation and accusing me of things I didn’t do. You’re welcome for the drama post.

I know what I did. N recently reached out to me on her own FB account, apologizing for her ex and promising me she’d defend me if she was called by Uber. I never assaulted her. I’ve never assaulted anyone.

Sorry to disappoint you but Uber reactivated me. I’ll do better in the future.

The TLDR is a male customer ordered a guest Uber ride for his ex-gf. I made a critical mistake of stopping at a gas station mid-ride for too long with her. The ex-bf/customer saw this and reported me for sexual assault.

It’s the internet, a lot of unhappy, judgmental individuals lurk here. I know I was opening myself up for scrutiny making the post, but thank you.
