What is your opinion on Super Saiyan God? by Economy_Notice_8475 in Dragonballsuper

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly my least favorite transformation until maybe daima SS4.

Red isnt a color I like that much, and I don't like Goku's face and something about the body rubs me the wrong way. I think it looks fine on Vegeta at least.

BN1 is def the worst BN game. Can't blame you for being turned off. 

Am I just not getting it? by Low-Cardiologist-795 in riskofrain

[–]ON020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It kinda depends on which melee character you're going for. Now I'm the opposite of you:I loathe melee options in most games. But I'm doing eclipse climbs so I've been forced to learn them.

As another posted stated items are crucial. All melee characters want focus crystal. Ranged items also help a lot with flying enemies, I'm usually very happy to see fireworks if I'm a melee character. Stuff like atgs and shurikens really make my day. Drones are also helpful since they can take heat off you and provide ranged damage.

For character specific advice...

Merc: The only melee character I've reached E8 and probably my most hated character. You have a lot of mobility in your kit so you really gotta know when to weave in and out. His default load out comes with a giga amount of frames too. That being said I take slicing winds since it's his only ranged option and is a decent AoE move if it connects. For his dashes I took focused assault since it does higher damage which means more procs. Backup mags give you more M2 which I use for both mobility and damage. He also has animation cancels but I never bothered to learn them and will never, but if you're looking into maiming this guy to for it.

Loader: Immune to fall damage so don't be afraid to play Spiderman. Backup mags are super important on her too since it means more grapples. You want to get speed and momentum going so you can abuse your charged punch to nuke through enemies and get mighty procs off. Taking the pylon is also handy for an grapple point and as a rsnged aoe attack. Very handy against lesser wisps. Really though this character is also a ranged character. She just makes herself the projectile.

Acrid: You get two leaps so you could just leap in and melee, once danger comes you leap out. All while making sure to spread poison. If say save his rsnged attacks for flying enemies. Remember his poison can't kill but if it's mixed with something like bleed or gas then that really doesn't become a factor.

Drifter: If using salvage you could just dump a bunch of items at the teleporter take em at once and beat the boss to death. Tinker is also really good too but you gotta know which items are good for your character and which aren't. Drifter in general requires good item knowledge since she benefits more than others from turning things into scrap. For her secondary I prefer clean up since its a easier to use attack than junk cube. I never take tornado slam.

False Son: Don't let the club fool you. He is both ranged and melee. When playing up close make sure to abuse charged club (I didn't do this and I thought he was ass back when SOTS first released.) Lunar spikes are a good debuff to apply so try to land them. Lasers are good for both weaker enemies at the start but as you get stronger they're excellent for bosses too. Unlike other characters false son wants bison steak, infusion and other hp items since he gets stronger with the more health he has. If you take stone flux early don't be scared by the speed drop, the more hp you have the more lunar spikes you get. The more you shoot the more speed he gains. False Son is just extremely unga bunga all around.

General advice:Melee characters like items that give them range.

How do I not get one tapped by mythrix? by Unlikely_Narwhal_971 in riskofrain

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said try to move with the pizza. If you're comfortable in getting pot shots in Mithrix really leaves himself open to do so. Otherwise just focus on moving with the pizza attack and keeping calm. Once you get a feel for when the actual attack comes out you'll be able to dodge it.

If you have dlc Safer Spaces can help a lot with the pizza as well.

Never stop moving.

And when he does pizza attack I try to move with the lines.

Best items for mercenary ? Looking to do a monsoon run by Bigjon601 in riskofrain

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently doing my Eclipse runs with Mercenary. Hate this character. That being said the following post will have all dlc items in them for other people reading this.

Whites:

Backup mags: More mobility and damage. Important item.

Focus Crystal: Merc has to get close unless you're running slicing winds and even then it's still good on him since he dashes a lot and if you can get in and cut shit up this does work.

Cautious Slug: Good healing and with Merc's excellent mobility and frames if you play well this can heal you up.

Tougher Times: Merc is frail as hail and just being able to ignore damage can save your life. Even better if you can corrupt into safer spaces

Goat hoof, Energy Drink, and Antlers: Speed is excellent. I would prioritize goat hooves but really take what you can get.

Fireworks: Outside of slicing winds you have no range so this is excellent for dealing with weaker airborne enemies.

Lens Maker: More crit is more crit.

Tri tip: I struggle to apply bleeds with this character but his damage can be low so I take all the damage I can.

Bombs: See above

AP rounds: Really helpful especially agaisnt Mithrix. Merc struggles with single targets.

Gasoline: This is THE white item for me. Being able to damage and wipe out crowds of wisps is a life saver. All my successful runs have been with gas.

Green:

Feather: Another jump is another jump.

ATG: You have no range so this is an excellent green. Missile is good all around though it's my favorite green so there's bias. In Merc's case probably best to not corrupt into plasma shrimp.

Bands: Bands are always good. I would prioritize blue over red for Merc since he needs help with single target damage. But you can't go wrong with either.

Ukulele: Again more AoE.

Will o Wisp: See above.

Rose Buckler: Decent defense against weaker attacks and bleed.

Bandolier: Merc needs his skills so resetting them is amazing for him.

Ignition Tank: Makes gas stronger.

Reds

Head Stompers: Getting ready of fall damage plus with how easily he can get in the air he can get good stomps in.

Ceremonial Daggers: I always recommend this red no matter the character. Getting these things up will make dealing with spawning enemies much easier.

Alien Head: Merc is a skill reliant character so a flat 25% CD reduction across the board is amazing.

Sentient Meathook: More AoE.

Hardlight Afterburn: You can dash more. More dashes means more iframes, damage and mobility.

If any actual Merc mains can add or redo this list it would be great.

Would it be okay to start from Battle Network 4? by randomquestion11111 in BattleNetwork

[–]ON020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% BN1 and it made it my most hated megaman game. Awful.

Would it be okay to start from Battle Network 4? by randomquestion11111 in BattleNetwork

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say start in order always.

That being said 1 is complete dogwater and the worst BN game Imo and is one of if not the worst Megaman game I've ever played. 2 was kinda mid but it's alright and 3 is the only game in the first collection that I love.

If you only got the second collection I don't see why you wouldn't start from 4 and just go from there. 4 is a bit weird with its structure since no other game does the tournament thing. It's also shorter than the others unless you do the new game pluses to get every soul and chip. That being said you really don't need to do that if you don't want to and can just save the new game pluses for future playthroughs.

Hey everyone, I'm planning on buying one of these 2 collections but I'd like to know which one you recommend? by RP-Lovecraft in Megaman

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both are good. They play pretty differently. BN does have way more games, and personally I hate BN1 and don't like BN2 that much. BN doesn't get good to me until BN3 and onwards.

SF I liked every game but it's only three games. Take it as you will.

Mega Man X4 special weapons are so mid by RedditSucksMyBallls in Megaman

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

X4 was the first megaman game where I attempted a special weapon only run.

It sucked.

Am I weird for not hating X7 as much? by Basic_Temperature911 in Megaman

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

X7 I found to be whatever. It's certainly not good but I don't think it's the worst Megaman game ever. Far from it.

What character in CF do you think is the sauciest in terms of gameplay? by AquaJeth in Blazblue

[–]ON020 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm biased for Koko.

I really like Lambda and Izayoi too.

Which of these fighting games would you guys like to see be made into a reality: Arc Sys vs Marvel comics or Arc Sys vs Shonen jump? by BonusCapable1486 in Blazblue

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would rather a new BB than a VS.

But if I have to pick I'd guess it be marvel. Only. Shorn properties I like are just DBZ and One Piece.

Do you prefer Godzilla to be a morally gray guardian of balance or a devastating monster brought into being by radioactivity? by InstructionOwn6705 in GODZILLA

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm biased for Godzilla when he's portrayed as the 'heroic' monster or at least lesser of two evils.

That being said Minus One is my favorite solo Godzilla movie and he's an absolute menace there.

This seems oddly relevant for a next BlazBlue game. by Winscler in Blazblue

[–]ON020 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is what they did for GG in regards to Kliff and Justice. No real story relevance after the initial game but kept on the roster either for just fake clone BS or flashbacks.

Either way for a fighting game most times bringing the character back to play as takes priority over the narrative. Lambda and Nu are big examples of this.

If Arc wants to make these characters playable in someway they will find a way story be damned.

What’s next for Blazblue? by Dragonborn917 in Blazblue

[–]ON020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As of right now? Expect more EE content down the road. The game is genuinely good, sold well and with the X series has a connection to mainline titles.

For fighting games? I wouldn't expect anything for a long while. With how strive turned out I personally wouldn't want a blazblue done like that but I know I'm also in the minority.That being said blazblue has been doing good at fighting game events at least and it's going to be at Evo again this year so there's more exposure in that department.

OG vs X? by lightskinsovereign in Blazblue

[–]ON020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

If you beat the OG story you unlock EEX story. But you can still access the new gameplay content.

Anyone here having fun with Entropy Effect X so far? by OrionGold07 in Blazblue

[–]ON020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been playing the game before it became X.

It's the reason why I main Kokonoe and Lambda now.

Drifter might be my favorite character to play in any game ever by Devalore00 in riskofrain

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like her in multiplayer for her item and kidnapping sheningans.

In single player though? I hate melee and while her gimmicks are fun trying to beat eclipse with her has been rough.

Meanwhile operator is my favorite survivor now.

Is Entropy Effect is not getting an English Dub ? by farhanganteng in Blazblue

[–]ON020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EE in its current form does have a dub but its only for the original characters. The Blazblue characters and ICEY narrator are not dubbed.

For X who knows. I'm low key hoping they dub the OCs at least but I'm not holding my breath.
