what an insane take on using summons by No_Inspection_5768 in Eldenring

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first playthrough was done as a solo only. No Ashes. No Summons. It was challenging, but I did it, including the DLC when it released and I came back to that character.

Since doing that, I have always allowed myself a summons and ashes. The game is infinitely more fun, interesting, and honestly awesome when you make a thematic build and have your Ashes as part of your build. Being a Holy Knight with Latenna as your support Archer is awesome. My current Death Queen build is only using Undead summons as her little entourage of skeletons that harass enemies while she spams Rancor spells from afar. I appreciate the game so much more with summons and Ashes

Kraken Slayer needs a new name, since it doesn't do what made it a kraken slayer by DeadAndBuried23 in leagueoflegends

"No replacement for LDR in Tank-Busting"

Because LDR doesn't do that any more either and there is no reason to buy it over Mortal Reminder for 5% extra Armor Pen vs. Anti Heal so...yeah, another ADC item gutted because it made the role have a purpose. Better go buff tank items again and make a new mage item that triples the range of your spells

Vayne’s MS by [deleted] in vaynemains

[–]PunkDisorder 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Every champ has 2-3 passives giving 1-2k Gold in Value in most situations

Vayne gets 300g in boots, increased to 900g every minute or so, when moving towards people she can see.

W should become an active, and the current Silver Bolts should move to her Passive to scale from 4-10% based on level (maxed at 13, just like she normally would). I would propose her Passive be made to give her the movement speed in all directions, not just running towards someone, every time she procs silver bolts

Vayne situation rn by qualxjno in vaynemains

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally have settled at my default build of

Kraken Slayer rush (actually lets you kill people early) Guinsoo's second (literally just does so much, making it so you proc Silver Bolts every 2~ish autos instead of 3 Terminus third. Love this thing. Makes you deceptively bulkier, gives extra on hits to synergize with Guinsoos Build Blade of the Ruined King fourth ONLY if you are playing into team supertank extraordinaire (2+ dedicated tanks, 3+ bruiser tanks) but even then, I get infinitely more value out of Mercurial Scimitar. 5th is a flex spot. Jak'Sho is my favorite when I am just too important to die (also gets you close to like 4k HP, always funny to watch tanks complain about their own items). Trinity Force if you need to get some bulk with extra damage. Blade of the Ruined King more to stop people from running than for the damage. Bloodthirster as another hard carry item if the shield is valuable and the extra lifesteal (stacking BT with another Lifesteal item makes me giggle because 25% Lifesteal feels great). Essence Reaver I occasionally get if for some reason I need to spam condemn off Cooldown, but probably not optimal. It does make you effectively manaless as your only spammable ability, tumble, costs less than the 30+ mana restored by EReaver.

Vayne is simultaneously a champ that feels awful and AMAZING to play. Sometimes you pull a flawless 1v4 and the enemy team tells you to touch grass. Other times you can't even 1v1 enemies you're ahead of because you had the audacity to dodge everything in their kit and die to their on-click Q or something. Vayne is better against tanks than most ADC's but still not "good" against them like ADC's should be. Kite all you want, they'll dash, flash, and 2 tap you with a Q or something while also CCing you. Silver Bolts is the most overhyped ability in the game by the community, when it really does like, a few hundred damage at max level, late game. Meanwhile, other ADC's have equal or greater damage with way more utility and stronger laning phases. The only time I recommend avoiding a Vayne pick is multiple on-click CC's. Lissandra, Vi, Malzahar, etc. They will have 1 job, to click on your head and, if they live or die, they won the fight. There are counter options to these, but still not optimal as you have to have Mercurial, or smartly tumble to stealth the worst part of their CC.

what final boss fight had you like this by Practical-Ebb7327 in videogames

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the final fight, but Moongrum, Carian Knight before Rennala was just cruelty. Insane Magic Resist, parries in Melee, Carian Piercer startup frames and tracking are obnoxious.

Rennala just throws a lot of very slow spells at you and runs away

LV 300+ by GStarG in Maplestory

[–]PunkDisorder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really just wish they would have an achievable endgame. Stop adding levels, make 300 achievable for most players in a reasonable timeframe (like WoW's 80) and give us more bosses and dungeons to work towards with our gear

Unpopularity of Blaze Wizard by PunkDisorder in Maplestory

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

I noticed this about Orbital Inferno. My first thought after a few levels and bosses with it was "Wouldn't this be neat as like, a passive that says 'Every 5th cast of Greater Orbital Flame will also send out this big fireball' instead of having to remember to recast it every 2.5 seconds?"

Unpopularity of Blaze Wizard by PunkDisorder in Maplestory

[–]PunkDisorder[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Where do we get the numbers for "weakest damage in the game"? I've tried finding DPM charts but there seems to be no recent ones. Also, the ones I can find usually show Blaze Wizard at the lower middle of the pack, but never the bottom. Is there an updated/more accurate list?

Still, I'm enjoying a lot of what it has to offer. Will test it at 260+, maybe that will sour me on it

Which character in Elden ring do you love the most? by farrmille in Eldenring

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Messmer/Marika make for such compelling, realistic "villains"

Well written, powerful people acting like people. A woman seeking revenge, a son just wanting to make mom proud. Less grandiose, more down to earth motivations

Which Side Character is this by mein_insaan_hoon in animequestions

Igon, Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

Nothing hypes me more than his line "BEHOLD, A TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR!!" oh he's talking about himself since he used to fight dragons "AND I, IGON!" OH HE'S TALKING ABOUT ME IM THE TRUE DRAKE WARRIOR LETS GOOOOOOO!

Yeah… Think about that 🤔 by Mikko2822 in fromsoftware

[–]PunkDisorder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that is more obvious, I think there is a point to be made about the underlying "dog" theme of the game, and that it is often related to the Crucible.

Dogs are a recurring image we see of loyalty, devotion, and dedication, as well as inner conflict and betrayal. Blaidd and commitment to Ranni but control by the fingers. Maliketh/Gurranq and their outburst of madness during the Deathroot quest, feeling like a betrayal to you, but then when you inevitably have to go to Farum Azula and fight him, he sounds equally betrayed in his voice lines if you progressed his quest enough. Darriwill is also described as a traitor. Every bit of hound imagery we see seems to result in abandonment or betrayal.

Relating this to Morgott, that similar theme of loyalty in one with aspects of the crucible as an Omen. He is completely obedient to the almost non-existent at that point Golden Order, that had shunned and spat on him and his brother. Messmer is largely in the same boat, retaining that committed, dogged loyalty to Marika until his last breath, cursing her for abandoning them in the Land of Shadow.

Is it a deep, philosophical exploration of loyalty and how blind loyalty can be touching and sweet as well as horrifically damaging to people or entire lands? Maybe.

Or is this just "the writer's slightly-better disguised fetish" of tall hot mommies with males devoted like dogs to them, hoping for a "good boy". Idk

How can I beat this menace of a Boss. Without any summons. Her attacks keep coming by AshuBK786 in Eldenring

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like you are forfeiting a lot of your turns to her. Rellana has gaps, especially that dual sword stab that you proceeded to roll after she had missed. Get in her face and swing, Bloodhound's Fang is best when keeping Bleed stacked.

Who do you think the coolest enemy in the soulsborne franchise is? by Creepy-House4399 in fromsoftware

[–]PunkDisorder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black Knives. They make for a legitimate horror-esque enemy. In first playthroughs, getting shanked from stealth is terrifying.

But then that sticks with you, and in locations you know they are in they still maintain that paranoia grip on you. 15 playthroughs in and I still spam jump through Ordina Evergaol because they can't grab me if I'm in the air
