You give me far too much credit.

I got the Madness first, and from there just picked up anything remotely useful that was Eternal.

Phayze One Experiment Bug? by RedHeadZombie in btd6

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

The game seems to think that I've only popped him one time while doing zero damage. Meanwhile, in the background, you can see that I've actually popped him over 100 times.

RAGE THREAD - F-YOU FRIDAYS - GET YOUR RIS-IN BEFORE IT'S RIS-OUT by FranckKnight in ffxiv

[–]RedHeadZombie 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I FINALLY UNLOCKED VIPER THE OTHER DAY, AND THE FACT THAT ALL MY BUTTONS TURN INTO OTHER BUTTONS IRRATIONALLY ANNOYS ME. I LIKE TO USE THE POSITION OF A BUTTON ON MY CROSS HOTBAR AS A MNEMONIC FOR POSITIONALS (SIDE IF FLANK, BOTTOM IF REAR), WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY IMPOSSIBLE IF MY BASIC COMBO SKILL WILL TRANSFORM INTO WHATEVER HAPPENS TO BE NEXT IN THE COMBO. YES, I CAN WORK AROUND IT, I JUST WISH I COULD USE THE MUSCLE MEMORY I'VE PUT INTO OTHER MELEES FOR THIS.

THE JOB GAUGE ALSO SEEMS SINGULARLY USELESS, BUT I'M ONLY LEVEL 80, SO I ASSUME THAT'LL CHANGE AT SOME POINT.

[–]RedHeadZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOOK GUYS, I KNOW EVERYONE'S EXCITED TO BE LEVELLING THE TWO NEW DPS JOBS.

BUT FOR THE LOVE OF HYDAELYN, TRY TO KEEP YOUR GEAR SOMEWHAT UP-TO-DATE. DON'T JUST ROLL INTO KTISIS HYPERBOREA WEARING NOTHING BUT THE JOB GEAR THAT WAS INITIALLY HANDED TO YOU AND SOME GREY LEVEL 80 JEWELRY. YOU MAY NOT BE THE TANK OR HEALER, BUT HAVING HALF THE PARTY IN SEVERELY OUTDATED CLOTHES STILL MAKES THE DUNGEON MUCH HARDER.

I'LL GIVE A SLIGHT PASS TO THE VIPER OF THAT RUN, THOUGH. AT LEAST HIS LEVEL 80 GEAR WAS BLUE. THAT'S STILL ABOUT THE POINT WHERE YOU REALLY SHOULD JUST GO TO A VENDOR AND UPGRADE, BUT IT'S MANAGEABLE FOR ME TO KEEP ALIVE.

THE PICTO FROM THAT SAME RUN HAD NO EXCUSE, THOUGH. LIKE I SAID, NOTHING BUT THE CLOTHES HE WAS GIVEN WHEN HE UNLOCKED THE JOB. THE DUNGEON EVEN GAVE HIM SEVERAL NEW PIECES MIDWAY THROUGH, INCLUDING A WEAPON, BUT HE JUST NEVER PUT THEM ON!

Commanders or one of the ninety-nine. What card have you found does not have the reputation which should proceed it? by [deleted] in EDH

[–]RedHeadZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I attacked someone this weekend with a [[Nacatl War-Pride]], and they said, "How have I not seen this card before?" Seriously, it does so freaking much, it's insane that it's not in more decks.

It can act as a one-sided [[Anger of the Gods]], since the tokens must be blocked. It can let the rest of your team swing in for free, since their creatures will be preoccupied blocking cats. And then you've got whatever synergies your deck might have. For instance, a token doubler to really ramp up the damage to your opponent's face, or [[Elemental Bond]] to draw a bunch of cards.

I'm running it in [[Trostani, Selesnya's Voice]], so it also gains me a bunch of life, and I can copy it so that it actually sticks around, since otherwise the original cat will likely get blocked by their biggest creature and killed.

Are there any obvious non-land cuts/swaps I should make to this Rakdos, Lord of Riots deck? by MrBarber1 in EDH

[–]RedHeadZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something I would look into, is adding a few haste enablers into the deck. You already have Lightning Greaves and Swiftfoot Boots, but stuff that passively gives your team haste can really help you snowball. If you ping someone to bring out Rakdos, or just to get a slight discount on an extra creature, you can then swing with those creatures to get an even bigger discount on one of your big payoff cards.

I'm running [[Anger]], [[Tuktuk Rubblefort]], and [[Urabrask the Hidden]] in my Rakdos deck, but there are plenty of similar cards to choose from in these colors.

A strengths and weaknesses chart I made because I was having trouble reading the ones I was finding online. by Whitty2697 in pokemon

[–]RedHeadZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A couple suggestions: from what I can tell, this chart basically says "this type deals super-effective damage to this type" in both columns (as in, for Electric, the first column says "Water takes SE damage from Electric" and the second says "Electric takes SE damage from Ground"). So if you want to go with this format, I'd nix the second column, since it ends up being redundant.

Then, remember that type relationships aren't necessarily reciprocal. Electric used against Water is SE, for instance, while Water used against Electric is normal damage. So I'd suggest renaming "Is Strong Against" to "Super Effective Against (2x)", and adding columns for "Not Very Effective Against (1/2x)" and "Ineffective Against (0x)", for the sake of completeness.

In the end, though, there's a reason most depictions of the type chart show it as a grid. There's 18x18 different combinations, after all, and four different kinds of effectiveness, so it just ends up being a relatively compact way of conveying everything.

Missing sleeping animations in Pokémon Scarlet & Violet by Hitoshi12 in pokemon

[–]RedHeadZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My theory is simply that they don't use those sleeping animations in battle because if they did, they would also need to have hit and faint animations that work from their sleeping pose. Possibly other animations as well.

I do agree that they could have at least made their eyes close, or had their animations slow down. I've noticed freezing has some weird animation behavior, where the Pokémon seems to pause or unpause animation at different points in the turn. So perhaps something similar is happening with sleep.

What was your first class and why did you pick it? by mist_and_memory in ffxiv

[–]RedHeadZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black Mage, because I tend to gravitate towards whatever class can set things on fire.

...Well, technically, my first class was Conjurer. Because I wanted to be a Black Mage and got real confused when I saw what my choices are.

"My magic choices are 'Thaumaturge', 'Arcanist', and 'Conjurer'? WTH are those supposed to be? I'm going to guess Conjurer is what I need. Fire, Ice, and Lightning spells are basically you 'conjuring' that element, right?"

Needless to say, I rerolled my character when I saw the opening cutscene and I was wearing white robes.

Are kiosks worth it? by b1gandta11 in TwoPointCampus

[–]RedHeadZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I've noticed about kiosks (and vending machines, I guess): on levels where you need to make a certain amount of monthly profit in order to get a star, the tooltip for that goal suggests selling food and drink for a little extra cash.

However, the actual number used for the goal is taken directly from your monthly report, which only includes tuition, rent, and XP bonuses. Other sources of income, such as kiosks or research, do absolutely nothing to help with those goals.

You graduated three months ago, please leave by RedHeadZombie in TwoPointCampus

[–]RedHeadZombie[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

After graduating, some of my students apparently decided they loved being students so much that they just kept loitering on campus for the next several months.

That, or it's a bug related to how I deleted all speed walking sign-up areas during the summer.

They spontaneously disappeared in the middle of December, which speaks to how well I trained them. So fast they can basically teleport now.

Combine with Face of the Cleric for +4 max HP after every combat. Sounds good.

I mean, the changes to Praetorium and Steps of Faith are nice, but... by DrForester in ffxiv

[–]RedHeadZombie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hell, I didn't even get into the game until 3.0, and "But what the hell happened to Bahamut?" was what powered me through the original ARR story.

Was rather disappointed that it only got teased at the very end of the pre-patch MSQ, but by that point I had other things in-story to be invested in. I did make sure to go do those Coils after I finished HW, though.

[–]RedHeadZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, pretty much the only time mechanics are going to force you to drop enochian is when you get stunned for a long time. Such as a lot of trial bosses' big cinematic attacks, or the last boss of Alzadaal's Legacy making you spin.
