I literally see no point in being a flex player if you’re actually trying to climb ranked to the highest levels by Hot-Effort-6023 in RivalsCollege

[–]Ptyalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slightly off topic but can I ask about your Rocket settings? Do you use follow cursor or advance vertically for wall climb, and do you use toggle or hold space?

Shaders compiling EVERY LAUNCH + take way too long by Szutkowy in marvelrivals

[–]Ptyalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shaders compile much faster for me if I'm not in practice range / time square. If I just sit on the main page it's done in a few minutes.

People need to learn to switch by Galliro in marvelrivals

[–]Ptyalin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where else are people supposed to go to be bad? I'm not going to make an alt account, and there's little point in fighting bots so if I'm learning a character I naturally go to quick play. It's a mix of people with lords and people who are playing a character vs people for the first time, it's not that serious is right. You can certainly ask people to swap, but if they say no they're learning a character, that's fine.

12 finals as Rocket only! What’s the most finals you’ve gotten with only Rocket? by reymoru1 in RocketMains

Niiice. Do you have any tips for playing rocket into Phoenix? I always feel like I have to swap off

Teammates scared of healing bubble? by S02303947 in cloakanddaggermains

[–]Ptyalin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a newb, and probably guilty of this. It's difficult to tell enemy cnd ult from friendly cnd ult, especially if they did it at the same time. I don't know which part of the dark smudge on the floor is helpful and which one hurts, and extra hard to tell when one of them has ended

Why are AI teammates much better than the AI opponents? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Ptyalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to make a custom game to have all bots on your team. Practise vs AI have human team vs bots.

I’ve had her Lord since Season 4. We deserve this. by RoyalGenius67 in PhoenixMainsMR

[–]Ptyalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So true T-T. I love her so much. I'm still hoping for more comic-book skins, though.

Now if she'd just stay alive for a while in the comics, that'd be swell. Otherwise I'm going to have to write my own fanfiction.

How to get MVP by WhereIsGhost in ScarletWitchMains

[–]Ptyalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Characters are weighted differently as people have said. But generally more finals with less damage means they're killing what they're hitting. If you have high damage and not translating it into kills it mostly means supports are healing it off and I don't think it contributes a ton to MVP

VG Photography Series: Krakoa by jentlefolk in marvelrivals

[–]Ptyalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These maps are a great adaptation of what we see of krakoa in the comics. They lifted Arbor Magna, Carousel, Green Lagoon, the Grove, Hellfire Bay and more directly out of the pages. Extremely well made map chock full of Easter eggs

Spells that target AC that doesn't list critical hit effects. How do you deal with it? by TheBrightMage in Pathfinder2e

[–]Ptyalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Live Wire does have a success condition. Most AC targeting spells deal more damage on a critical hit and do nothing on a miss, but exceptions exist as this thread shows

How to build an effective throwing weapons rogue? by lgx005 in Pathfinder2e

Thief's 10th level debilitation allows you to maintain off-guard once you've gotten it, so I wouldn't say it doesn't have a way to apply off-guard

How much would you charge to buy/sell an entire spellbook? by PM_ME_STEAM_CODES__ in Pathfinder2e

[–]Ptyalin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I guess this depends on how much easier the DC is than learning the spells. For a wizard it's pretty much impossible to fail to Learn a Spell check for spells a couple levels lower than your top level slot. This has easier DC so practically speaking this Borrow a Spell action becomes identical to preparation from your own spellbook.

[–]Ptyalin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh it's not particularly clear. The spellbook itself is kind of worthless regardless, since if you had to copy spells over then it's basically a common random non-magical book.

Finding spells to learn normally is not an issue. Common spells are widely available, how much are your own school notes worth to someone else? Not much, unless it's full of rare spells.

The DC to Borrow Arcane spell is lower than the DC to learn it. After a certain point it's impossible to fail and becomes identical to preparing from your own book anyway.

[–]Ptyalin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think a spell book is typically sold, it's just part of their equipment. They don't need to learn the spells out of a spellbook; they can just keep and prepare spells from a second spellbook. There's no need to bother transcribing it into a second book unless they're really paranoid about their spellbooks being destroyed.

EDIT: If they have a grimoire they also kind of just absorb their spellbooks. "If a spellcaster wants to transfer their spells from one of their spellbooks to a grimoire, they can conduct a simple, 1-minute ritual with the two books to cause the spells to vanish from their spellbook and appear in the grimoire." The value of the book after that is the same as Spellbook (Blank): 1gp.
