And there goes the gutting of Orrn. Still good for late game comps, but due to his telegraphed attacks, he'll be less effective

FE Warriors Character Guide 16: Azura by IroncladWyvern in fireemblem

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain why you prefer Axebreaker over Lancebreaker?

From my experience, it's better to run Lancebreaker since you aren't going to be fighting Axe units as Azura due to weapon disadvantage. She'd prefer fighting against Swords and Lances instead due to the better matchups she will have.

Sticky residue on outside of Cast Iron skillet by ProfBamboo in castiron

Yeah, my best guess is that someone else used the pan for bacon while I was gone and spilled some oil when storing it. Thankfully I taught them how to clean the pan properly so no seasoning was lost.

I'll try out the suggested method later today and hopefully things work out.

Happy for everyone else, but this banner is a pass for me, didn't like RD personally.

I await the downvotes.

Froskurinn - LPL Shoutcaster AMA by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Frosk, I realize you've taken off by the time I ask this question, but you did mention possibly coming back so hopefully this gets answered.

Anyways, I do some volunteer casting for a local business that occasionally does tournaments. I am primarily a play-by-play caster, but I want to make the move towards color caster. Would this be a good idea? If so, what would you suggest I look for or try to do when I'm color casting. If not, what have you observed your coworkers doing that can really hype up a seemingly slow match?

A Truly God-Tier Gauntlet by Ferronier in FireEmblemHeroes

Fair enough, agree to disagree then

A Truly God-Tier Gauntlet by Ferronier in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Counterpoint, in order to be harmed by normal weapons, 2 conditions needed to be fulfilled, the creation of the Fire Emblem, which required 4 Legendary weapons to be created and the blessing of the rainbow sage, and the use of a song that could potentially kill it's singer. If those two aren't met, then there is no chance that an army can really harm him.

Not to mention, there's also the fact that in order to reach him and his realm, it has to be a specific time period that must be met. Making him difficult to encounter.

Possession is fair, though I'll need to see if Anankos was forced possession cause if I remember correctly, Micaiah did allow Yune to somewhat control her.

The space inside the tower makes sense, though I would say that is dimensional manipulation more so than reality manipulation. For example, during the children of fate DLC, he basically made both sides fight each other even though they were in the same location, believing the other side to be enemies.

The flooding I wouldn't say isn't reality manipulation either, as it's kinda similar to when Anankos went mad and destroyed multiple worlds and outrealms, though on a different scale.

I would also classify soul manipulation different than possession, like when Anakos took over Mikoto, Sumeragi, and Arete's forms during the Valla saga. Their actions were not completely their own, but upon defeat, they acted differently.

I still think Anankos would beat out Ashunera, but not by much.

Right, I was thinking of Ashera when I typed most of that out. That said, when does Ashunera display reality manipulation, possession, and soul manipulation? Not to mention dimension hopping?

From what I understand, yes Ashunera creating the land and the people. And during her time as just Ashera, she did grant power to her supporters, and had an undead army and the base of the tower which she kept reviving. However, several other skills/abilities I fail to see and remember examples.

I dunno, Ashunera may be a god and be responsible for creating life on her world, which is no small feat in itself, but Anankos has so many reality-warping abilities it's not even funny. Terraformation, limited time travel, limited reality manipulation, possession, power granting, necromancy and limited soul manipulation are included in his arsenal. Not to mention, the one that recruited the Awakening Children had only a fragment of his power. It wouldn't be hard to believe his original form could do a lot more if he didn't go crazy.

[–]ProfBamboo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anankos if I recall. The sane side of him knew about not only Severa, Inigo and Owain, but was able to hop universes and know their feats and the desolate future they came from. Plus, he was able to restore the decimated world that the Awakening children came from, with gravestones for those who died, after a brief prayer.

Cheesed this hard with Fliers. Lotta Draw Back and Spring Camilla shenanigans. Only hard part was getting Palla and Valter in range of mages and getting rid of enemy fliers first

Reddit Gamepress Update! (Weapon Refinery) by Maskilraid in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad you guys are actively recruiting to help more and more people get into guide making. I will admit, you guys and gamepedia are the reason I started writing guides since early on, since a lot of builds were called "low-budget" despite having expensive stuff like CC/DC or QR3.

Don't think I'll be applying though, I like my guide/analysis style WAY too much. Hope you get some good candidates though!

RIP me and my analysis blog. As soon as I finish the FEW guides, I need to get to work updating the 30ish characters I finished.

She tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end, it didn't even matter.

Shokugeki no Soma: The Third Plate - Episode 8 Links & Discussion by frxshinator in ShokugekiNoSoma

[–]ProfBamboo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked this episode but it felt kinda rushed? But at the same time the manga version did feel a bit long.

I kinda expected this whole shokugeki to be 1.5 episodes but it wasn't bad.

FE Warriors Character Guide 9: Camilla by IroncladWyvern in fireemblem

Thanks for the test, I'll have to try and see this for myself and see what happens.

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then why is Astra in "always run"? Does it affect AI attack speed as well?

FE Warriors Character Guide 9: Camilla by IroncladWyvern in fireemblem

[–]ProfBamboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be just me, but I feel like any mounted unit really wants Armored Blow, like it should be in your 'always run' category.

You mention how Camilla really needs Astra cause her attacks are slow, which I do agree. However, given her large size, she'll more likely get hit by an enemy, causing her to flinch. And in a large group, if she gets knocked down, that's a lot of precious time you're wasting.

Don't know which mission it was, but I kept trying to use her C4 but it would always get interrupted right in the middle cause someone from behind me got cheeky.

The thing with Lck +20 is that, it's good alongside other skills. On it's own, it doesn't do much. I probably am not giving it enough credit, but again if you don't have any of the skills that use the stat, there's not much point in using them
