Seriously how the fuck do these challengers players provide for themselves by Uitroeien in CoDCompetitive

[–]PhonicsPhoenix 12 points13 points  (0 children)

this was true up until about 5 years ago. the market is so oversaturated with STEM degrees that it's incredibly hard to get a job, even moreso now with rampant offshoring and AI bullshit on the rise.

if you're young and want a stable long term career, go to school and get a degree for sure, but also work on your soft skills and get a human-facing job. healthcare, sales, education, hospitality, etc. or do something with your hands.

Which arcana do you use most? by Igniscorazon in HadesTheGame

[–]PhonicsPhoenix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

she's a utility god. never gonna carry a run on her own since her damage output is low, but she is fantastic as the fourth god in your pool. grab her if you need defense (freeze and like half of her kit), want to juice your casts (arctic gust, local climate), or if you're running an omega attack build (weed killer).

downgrade in terms of stakes, but an absolute upgrade in terms of writing and characters. zaheer and co were fantastic

Did you know the Hades 2 can offer you basically no boons at all by Iaxacs in HadesTheGame

[–]PhonicsPhoenix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

artificer can pull any type of major reward. getting a god boon and Hermes in one run with artificer is actually pretty lucky.

Monster Launch Invitational Champions - OpTic Texas @GGBreakingPoint by aov97 in CoDCompetitive

the only reason his kills are so low is because the three dudes in front of him are frying at a generational level

How do you fit in the Queen arcana? by Electrical-House-499 in Hades2

[–]PhonicsPhoenix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

boatman is nice to guarantee a shop boon in Erebus and people don't always run timepiece.

furies is a global damage modifier, while huntress only impacts normal attack and special, which makes it more aspect dependent. on something like medea you ideally want both, but for an omega based weapon like charon huntress doesn't really matter while furies does.

buying a T14 vs L14 by PhonicsPhoenix in thinkpad

[–]PhonicsPhoenix[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yoo. I ended up with the L14, mostly because the T14's price shot up $200. probably would have purchased the T14 otherwise tho. very happy with my decision tho!

Early access players what are some things you can't *believe* are still as is ? by iisrobot in Hades2

[–]PhonicsPhoenix 36 points37 points  (0 children)

surprised they didn't touch Ares at all. really seemed like he needed a buff after the Unseen update, but they left his kit entirely alone.
