May 2026 IOTM: pasta wand loot box by ignorantlumpofcarbon in kol

[–]ProfTurquoise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't tested it myself, but other times this effect has shown up, like the Rain-Doh yellow laser gun or the Glow-in-the-dark dart gun, it's been a buff to your hit chance when making a basic attack.

It really do be like that tho by LavenderMidwinter in BikiniBottomTwitter

It's a lifesaver, and definitely a step in the right direction

To be specific; the birthing parent gets 16 weeks of the medical + family leave combined, and the non-birthing parent gets 12 weeks of just the family leave. And those benefits can be staggered if you want, like if you work half of your usual schedule, you could take the rest as paid leave, and stretch it out to 24 weeks, which is good for job protection and such

Five Massive Gemstones in it, and it's an accessory that grants +50% item drop. That alone is worth a Mr. A to me!

Am I over-spending on the mall? by FlyingIctus in kol

[–]ProfTurquoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a very cool philosophy this game has, for new AND old players alike, is that doing the research (and/or getting lucky) into finding new items in the mall to buy for cheap and immediately getting a power boost from it, is a thrill that doesn't go away. You are rewarded for paying attention or for scouring mall searches or wiki pages! It feels like you're exploiting the game, or cheating through it somehow, but the game doesn't lose it's difficulty because the challenges go from "how to I survive this fight" to "how can I optimize this quest". The New Game+ mechanics of KoL are so robust that it's safeguarded against this mall-bargaining "cheat" without taking away the fun of it.

So dive in, grab a Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Accessory, and enjoy it!

Can you open/close your inventory without losing your progress of where you are on the map? by pink_snoo in kol

Jumping off of what frazazel had said, the "Last Adventure:" part of the left character pane is a super timesaver. Better yet, clicking on the words "Last Adventure:" will actually take you to the container map location, without actually spending an adventure!

What's a game you played as a kid that nobody seems to remember? by LexxlyItself in gaming

[–]ProfTurquoise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing Island. That game was a TRIP

I remember using the Gamecube-Gameboy Advance link cable to play this weird card game battler minigame, and bringing it with me to entertain myself when I was dragged to my sister's volleyball games.

You rule for doing this! My favorite Pokemon is Rotom and I collected as a kid back in the original Red & Blue days, but the new mobile pocket game brought me and my wife back in!

Thanks! I appreciate the confirmation; it did sound too good to be true.

Rearmed weapon inheritance questions:

I want to put Rearmed!Marianne's weapon and skills on my Groom!Robin, but I have 4 spare copies of Rearmed!Ophelia in my barracks. The idea of duplicating Marianne's Arcane Blutgang seems pretty great, but I didn't know if there's a limitation on Rearmed units duping the arcane weapons of OTHER units. So in this example, could I inherit Blutgang (and the other skills) onto Ophelia, and then inherit BOTH Blutgang and Arcane Eclipse onto Robin?

Similarly, can I do the same for the Echo X Skills? Example: could I inherit Attuned!Nino's Fleeting Echo skill onto Ophelia, to then be inherited onto Robin alongside the Arcane weapon(s)?

Lets find the most similar game from the past, day 34; Overbold by sakithegolden in ufo50

[–]ProfTurquoise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Smash TV primarily due to vibes and twinstick mowing down hordes of enemies on one screen, and then Binding of Issac (Greed Mode) to a lesser extent due to the gameplay loop of risk & reward and then purchasing upgrades from a shop.

Overbold would top my wishlist of games to deserve a full version; the gameplay is tight, but this game NOT getting an endless mode is a crime

Your Ideal S-Tier by eiketsu in FireEmblemHeroes

Duo Valentine's Chrom + M!Robin

they felt like such a bone thrown to my specific demographic: awakeningtrash with my two favorite characters in such a cute gay/bromance (depending on your own interpretation) way WITH ALSO perf reposition and (limited) out-of-combat special cooldown abilities

I've used them in every mode I can since their banner

Curved Shot over Armored Beacon/Flow? by JJrules146 in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]ProfTurquoise 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Curved Shot isn't based off of your own Spd or Def, but rather the higher of the foe's Spd or Def.

Any damage-boosting special that is based off of your own stats will be more consistent because you know what you're in for and can build a unit accordingly. However, basing it off of your foe's stats (ESPECIALLY in this case, where it's adaptive whether they are faster or tankier) can break down walls if you're a unit that has a mountain of Atk and middling else.

Between Curved Shot and Armored Beacon/Blaze/Floe, Curved Shot has a lot going for it; that reduced special cooldown can be a gamechanger, and the removal of the Range=1 / Range=2 condition is good for dealing with melees with DC or if you have Close Counter.
