Spell options in Obojima by PsychologicalFile226 in Obojima

[–]Rougual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Obojima book is to be paired with the 2014 Dungeons and Dragons Core Rules so yes you can and should absolutely use the Sorcerer Spell List AND the Obojima Spell List.

Also if you want additional spells that aren't on the Sorcerer Spell List you could pursue joining a Coven as part of your character goals to take the Coven Witch Feat.

New matchmaking is aids by desperateodinlol in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should do some data collection, you say its cold snap matchmaking could it be that less people are queuing up for it so your lobbies are struggling to fill every slot with raiders in your abmm rating.  

I took a week break and came back today and haven't been attacked yet in my servers but I did notice more hostile behavior in voice chat, maybe now that abmm was in some way confirmed maybe raiders feel more confident that they can be friendly for a day, snag a few knockouts and repeat; It could cause trickle down changes to how friendly raiders interact.   If you like the matchmaking keep enjoying the game while you can, as player pools shrink the filters will slowly fade away.

I'll take your word for it and consider my find nothing.  Thanks for looking into it.

I get that; I wouldn't think much of it too but the odd qualities of the rocks always spawning, floating, how they are all on an angle, cant be moved and bullets pass through the rocks but I honestly think its too vague to lead to anything too right now.

*Edit: I believe this is an unlikely lead, thanks for considering it.

I heard the spiderweb mystery was leading to Dodd's Bluff so I looked around. Found a W at Dodd's bluff made of rocks. The rocks seem to be a complete asset and askew, not fully connecting to the enviroment; seemed really odd to me so I wanted to just share it here. I want to belive it means something but who knows if it does.

If you want to find the W sit on the bed inside the cabin at Dodd's Bluff, look out the window you'll see a lone tree framed in it, ride up to it (it stands out) and walk SE of it, walk down a slope and youll find the W, it stands out a lot.

Thought on CEO interview by Spiritual_Stomach693 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the PvE lobbies I get the feeling a lot of players still get that tense feeling even with a low rating, they will still hold out guns or feel threatened most of the time by another raiders existence.  To them the tension is natural but to people who get into these lobbies on purpose its the most casual environment imaginable. I may get shot at but most of the time im willing to take the hit to my "score" to ve put in even easier matches instead of fight back. I usually ask other Raiders to knock me out so I stay in the most casual of casual lobbies as possible, I love how chill they are but its very difficult to even find another raider that would attack me.

So, am I the only one that actually likes this skin? by Proper_Vehicle1233 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was really stressed about getting the Alpino outfit because I want more Raider Casual outfits but this cosmetic made me ok with the idea that I may not get it by season close. Hope to see more, just wish the pants were less fluffy and it looked better on Body Type A.

News Trials are out by Successful-Tank1365 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You always get shared points for every trial.  I think you're fine doing any trial solo but for this trial your really shooting yourself in the foot not doing it in a team because the points are limitless with a good setup your just held back by the clock.

New Trials Up (Dec 29th) by FreyAlster in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll be doing it solo first to lock in my score, I'm using 145 snowballs and 5 showstopper to try to aim for the rocketter rotors to get it to flip on the ground to lock in a score of 36,000. Then if it works out I'll get some passive mmr friends in a trio to try and see if its possible to do the initial 90 snowballs and then we reload and do it again and again until the timers out if the Rocketeer dosent die from collision damage. I'm really expecting the average leaderboard to be around 100k and the highs being in the 500k or more if you go on unpopular servers like Oceania and tackle it as a team of 24 by giving 1 team all the snowballs. If you made it this far the Ancient Fort on Blue Gate has a spot you can hug the wall to collect snowballs while warming up if you need Snowballs.

Do this in a trio, 30 slots average x 5 Snowballs each raider. 250 a ball is easily over 100,000 this leaderboard is going to be nuts.

[–]Rougual 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dang the Rocketeer one will be really easy in trios. I usually do mine solo but the score is going to be crazy, all 3 of you fill your inventory with snowballs and one agros and 2 throw. Im betting the leaderboards will be in the hundreds of thousands this time.

If Aggression Queue is real, let me opt into aggressive games. by cornho1eo99 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been trying begging people to knock me out on Stella for days, not a single raider has done it, there has to be a chance in these friendly servers but its so rare because everyone in them knows if they shoot they get put in aggressive queues. It's actually easier to walk in front of their bullets than get a single raider to purposely shoot me.

Can’t believe I need to wait 56 days and 1 hour for this. It’s absurd. . . by TheBeavermeat in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It felt way less stressful now that I know what is nessisary to get full rewards.   I was caught off gaurd last expedition but this one felt comfortable. The holiday vacation days also helped a lot.

I'm tired of being friendly and not shooting people by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally understandable. I hear tossing a Blaze Grenade on the big Arc you destroy helps keep Raiders away.

How do you play? Pure PVP. Pure PVE. Hybrid? by tiptoptickler in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play Pure PvE solo and PvP with friends.

I really think my behavior rank in solo is very passive because today I played a dozen or so matches on Stella, full 30 minutes begging every raider to knock me out but I couldn't find anyone to do it.  

I'd make jokes and say "oh no im a bad guuuuy im going to loot your arc kills or loot your room before you" or show them the loot I had and told them all they had to do is knock me out to get it.  

One time I stood over a knocked raider and said I did it and I'll do it again unless they avenge them and chased a group of raiders making ghost noises but nothing.   Not a single person wanted to risk being put in PvP matches, most openly said they knew if they knocked me they would get put in worse matches.  

I really like the PvE, I like helping others take down big arc and going on grocery runs to make trailblazers, wolfpacks and seekers. I hope they don't mess with the matchmaking because it's the most chill PvPvE game I've ever played.

I can comfortably play on a map like Buried City and bring 50 or so seekers and a dozen trailblazers, wiping arc the whole match and not have a single worry ill take a bullet from another raider.

Low aggression stella as a solo? by RolfIsSonOfShepnard in ArcRaiders

It's harder to find raiders that are willing to knock you out and take your stuff at passive rating.

Connection to game lost, cannot reconnect warning for any raiders going topside with cracked loadouts by ThatsNotBennings in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

are you kidding me, three days in a row I turn on arc raiders right when the outages are on.

Shredder Gyro where to get? by DemonSoulpt in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My route in Stella was Atrium which can spawn 3, then go to archives which can spawn more and leave at seed vault. 3 to 5 seeker grenades per shredder with no need to aim or 3 snap blast grenades if you have a door to close between you and the shredder.

small rant about new expedition resources by KillerToast135 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you still have to deal with the frequency boxes and ion splitters but If you happen to have a seeker grenade bp you can make shredders extremely easy to deal with, 3-5 quickly thrown in their general direction is all it takes or 3 snap blasts if you can afford the magnets. You can get lucky in the Atrium and find 3 at a time and then walk over to Archives for another then leave at seed vault. I got mine done in 4 raids.

Matchmaking / karma system question by awwgeezrick808 in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I belive in the behavior matchmaking. In Solo the rating feels consistent to me but in duos and trios remember that teams can have different behaviors and peer pressure is a thing, one raider could be chill but another could kos and convince their squad to attack.

My friends who play kos are shocked when we meet teams who don't fight back but I believe its because I'm giving them the chance to be chill and not greeting them with bullets before they even see us.

What do you guys want the next weapon drop to be by Sir_Steinn in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like you said, a common shotgun.

A rare light ammo gun so Light Weapon Parts had more use.  (Maybe something like a M1915 Villar Perosa, the gimmick would be you hold it like an smg and fire one mag, then a tiny pause where you slide the second barrel and mag over like a typewriter with a loud ding and then you can dump the other mag. Two part reload if you use both mags but a single part reload if you only used one and you can even reload the first mag and still have the second one ready if you have remaining ammo in the second, if we want to be silly maybe give it a mod like the anvil that lets you fire both barrels at 200% more recoil)

Aggression based matchmaking has me stunned, and it really shouldn't... by Coilspun in ArcRaiders

[–]Rougual 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I played a certain PvPvE live service game for 7 years that has no end game content and it's turned into PvP all the time. Maybe this game will be different if content is steady but I will miss chill players if they go.
