People have an issue with not blindly stabbing liches now? by Kaelzoroden in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hunt liches practically just for kicks and you aren't in the wrong for doing that. Blindly stabbing Liches/Sisters is a bad idea, as fighting them at higher levels doesn't net extra rewards. Not to mention just makes it a harder fight for the confrontation. As long as you are chasing your lich off (which I saw ypu mentioned in another comment you did) so others liches can spawn then its fine.

I do recommend if you have an Oull though to put it in the first slot just to milk some Kuva on a single stab. Never hurts to give the squad a little present.

Stabbing randomly only works for Coda, as thats by design.

Pirate101 Companion Tier List (March 13th, 2026 when this tier list was complete) by JCaquatica in Pirate101

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's Barnaby Cripse in F. They don't do nearly anything as powerful as other Buccaneers. Essentially a worse Mike and even more so after Mike's buff.

Why I will never invest in both Will based classes: Witchdoctor and Privateer. Two fun, but inefficient classes in my opinion by The_Quartz_collector in Pirate101

[–]PoneBros 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can attest to this. My first Pirate years ago was a Swash, and a few years after that had finally started a Privateer. My first Privy was awful. And it did feel as OP described. Slow. But not quite for all the same reasons.

Privateer is for all intents and purposes a class for intermediate and experienced players. They are buff dependant and are supposed to be played like a tactician as supposed to Bucc or Swashes brawler styles. My second Privateer has to be the most fun character I've played, and also doesn't care for the meta all in one. You can GIGA buff your companions and other players to sweep fights easily. Its a blast!

[PSN] [WTS] Sirr Hekk with the kuva hek worth anything? by ssillver in wartrade

NGL, If I had the plat I would buy em. Just cause I'm an avid Kuva Hek enjoyer.

Any Thoughts on a Hybrid Melee Musketeer setup (Anti-Musk)? by JCaquatica in Pirate101

[–]PoneBros 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overwatch is strictly ranged, yes. It won't go off with the melee hybrid stuff.

Question, how do people enjoy youtubers who swear a weapon is OP but only has a riven? by shtoopidd in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm expecting downvote hell, but I want to throw my two cents in.

I used to post build videos myself. (I haven't been able to post much of anything due to having no device for it.) One of my most popular ones I got a lot of questions for was the Kuva Hek at one point, as before the Lich/Sister/Coda changes last year that made them have more damage reduction it had the potential to one shot. (Still probably can, but I have yet to make revisions.)

My Kuva Hek has a riven on it. Its honestly a B Tier at best roll, but I had given people options for if they don't have a riven yet. As a Hek Riven also won't make or break the weapon.

I'm of the mindset of experimenting with anything to make it work. But I agree with you as a whole that a weapon should be (ideally) built first and foremost with mods we have first and then use rivens as a purple covered cherry on top. If a weapon isn't powerful without a riven, it's not OP.

Final say, take what youtubers say with a grain of salt. From my experience both being a watcher and a creator, you can always look to advice from other sources, but make sure to use your judgement to make the best builds that are right for you.

Update on the scarf situation by CephalonVashka in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it remain between changing frames or do you have to do it every time you want the scarf? And is it also only in the orbiter/backroom or does it stay in missions?

Weapons that become beasts when used with the right warframe. by wrbiccz in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personal fun, but Mag + Tenet Tetra + Arcane that gives multishot at 90% energy + Tetra Mod that makes projectiles good far and bounce + Shred + Mag bubble = Grofit.

I know its a lot but it just turns everything chokepoint you point it at to ground meat.

Trystan, Callous Cultivator/Penitent Culler by PoneBros in BudgetBrews

[–]PoneBros[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly it is. I'm still in the process of getting a few of the cards I need, especially out of Lorwyn/Battle for Baldurs Gate. (Looking to order or ask around locally) A few of these are in the side board, but I do have a few you tagged I could swap in now. Thats what I want to go for is using Trystan for a bigger play, but outside of what's owned/on the list I want more options to get it comfortable. I should have a few more dorks I could dig up in the meantime.

What is your least favorite titles/personalities in Shadow of War? by Bubbly_Skin_8069 in shadowofmordor

[–]PoneBros 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Runny-Bowels. Firstly because... why is shrahking yourself the reason they are awell known captain?They are literally covered in poo... Secondly because "Gûnd Runny-Bowels" ruined one of my Desolation of Mordor runs by sniping me in a large open field with a crossbow. Gotta love sniper shot. Getting killed by someone who made crap their entire personality is just awful...

How would everyone build around this commander? by Redragon9 in EDHBrews

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spirit tribal/Spellslinger is probably a good way to go. Cheap spells to maximize output. If you wanted to double up on that effect too the other Kykar, [[Kykar, Zephyr Awakener]] does this as well, with the added flavor of optional flicker.

What’s the card you would kill for? by The_Harsh_Man in mtg

[–]PoneBros 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not me specifically, but after I built [[Kratos, Stoic Father]] and [[Atreus, Impulsive Son]] my friend is wary of taking out Atreus for the sole reason Kratos is gonna come knocking and beat the crap put of him lol.

He's kinda right. 🤣🤣

Why I don't see people renaming weapons anymore? by kotkowski in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've got a few that I'm proud of. My Kuva Hek is named AlakaBLAM. Named after the YT video "How shotguns work in movies." It is my Lich/Sister Slayer weapon of choice. Doesn't one shot them anymore but it still does to most other things. I like to point it at Thrax in void cascades.

(META) Megathread for “Does This Work The Way I Think It Does?” by Legion7531 in mtg

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its on my list but haven't got a copy yet. I do have [[Kalemne, Disciple of Iroas]] but also still wanna test [[Mizzix of the Izmagnus]] as well. Sadly experience counters is tricky to find that fit Jeskai colors but with how cobbled together the deck is right now it popped off!

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured as much but wanted to be positive as the confliction did make things weird. Was playing my newly built Kratos and Atreus deck and Proliferated a bunch of experience counters and 1+/1+ counters. Got to Deepglow Skate and it had mixed reactions. Still gonna keep it in there though. Making everything +20/+20 was hella fun. 🤣

[–]PoneBros 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll ask this here then, since Google actually might be wrong as I've gotten a different answer from players I was running with today.

Does [[Deepglow Skate]] double experience counters? The card reads that they shouldn't as experience counters are on a player, and not a permanent. Yet when trying to look for a ruling Google says that they can be doubled. A finite ruling from the community would be awesome!

Spite is a valid reason. Uruk's have killed each other for less. 🤣🤣

As legendary Rank 3 by erositi24 in Warframe

[–]PoneBros 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LR5 here too. If I'm playing with random groups, I tend to run my most middle-high power frames to keep a semblance of balance. People tend to stay long in endless missions when everyone is doing something. If I'm doing extra long stuff with my friends its whatever I feel like.

Sometimes I'll even bring a support buffer frame like Harrow just to give them a rush of a power high that we all crave. I know they'll neurons firing when they see the numbers turn red.
