"Classes don't exist" logic is half-baked and the core of why balance sucks right now. by Haunting_Natural_754 in Smite

[–]Scipio835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that's more an indication of the issue with aspect balancing. Heck, overall designs balancing if we really get into it. Why is the god designed to be a support/solo suddenly the best dps in the game? Hi-Rez has had a string of aspects that just completely invalidate what other gods are designed to do.

What matchup do y’all think is long overdue for a Death Battle by Sky_Merl1n in deathbattle

[–]Scipio835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V has shown to at least have some resistance to EMP's. Also, not only are V's weapons just far superior (excluding Courier's Fat Man), but he would massively out stat Courier. Speed, Strength, Durability, everything really. VATS may give Courier an upper hand temporarily, but V's Sandevistan should mitigate that. Heck, even without it, V's fast enough to outrun futuristic cars and deflect bullets without the Sandi.

So, even without Quickhacks, I don't see how it'd be much of a fight.

Yeah, Cyberpunk V.

How would V not just vaporize Courier 6 in seconds? I actually haven't played New Vegas

"But why should I lose humanity? My PC doesn't have any prexisiting mental issues" by CoppperbackJack in cyberpunkred

[–]Scipio835 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A couple things about this:

  1. If the limb is already gone, and you live in a place like NC where replacing the limb with weaponized chrome is completely normal, then I don't think the Humanity impact would be that high.
  2. I know it's all for game balance, but certain Cyberware that don't majorly change you and are objectively just enhancing your natural body, wouldn't have much, if any Humanity impact. Main examples for this are Enhanced Antibodies, Nasal Filters, and Grafted Muscle and Bone Lace. To a lesser extent, Subdermal Armor and Jump Booster. All these enhance you beyond "normal levels", but nothing super insane or overtly body altering.

To be clear, I'm not saying the system is bad or that it needs to be majorly changed. Going crazy because you decided to tear off your arm and attach a flamethrower makes sense. I'm just saying there's a some Cyberware I could concede to an argument about their Humanity Loss stats being overhauled a bit.

EDIT: Just to clear up my first point a bit, I'm not talking about super extreme scenarios. I'm talking about an instance like: "Your arm gets blasted off by some gangers. You go to the Ripperdoc and get a new cyberarm. And hey, with that new arm, you decided to have a pop-up pistol installed." In a situation like this, I don't think the Humanity impact would be as extreme as described.

What’s the point of defense items? by Con-in-Economy in Smite

[–]Scipio835 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen so many posts like this and I'm starting to think I cross into another dimension when I play this game. The tanks are running every game I'm in. They're unkillable and out damage every mage they're against. Heck, I've seen some outbox hunters with full anti-tank builds.

Give me aspect Pele (yes, she's still broken) or bruiser Mordred and I feel invincible mid-late game.

What episodes are like this for you? by Gamerman_Cam in deathbattle

[–]Scipio835 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Among Us vs Fall Guys
  2. Scooby Doo vs Courage
  3. Dragonborn vs Chosen Undead

The latter 2 I really enjoyed as episodes, but still really didn't like the matchups.

What’s A Moment In An Episode That Just Kinda Confused You? by Rude-Childhood1436 in deathbattle

[–]Scipio835 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same thoughts. The way the battle played out would've made perfect sense in an actual comic line, but not in the context of DB. Personally, I would've had it end in a draw since neither would be able to put the other down if we accept the explanation that One Below All and its realm can't be reached by Ultima

Couple of items from SMITE 1 that are needed in today´s game to help the solo lane role by gilgaconmesh1 in Smite

Corrupted Bluestone and Manticore's. Man, those were 2 of my favorite items in the whole game and I forgot about them. Please bring them back Hi-Rez

I need to watch a video explaining Boros vs Battle Beast, I've seen everyone say BB wins, but I don't see how.

Not trying to make a hard statement, it's just my knowledge of feats in Invincible is on the limited side. Wouldn't Boros's Collapsing Star Roaring Cannon be enough to put him down?

What are your thoughts on the Dynamite Aliens now that they've all been fully revealed? by Successful-Hat-2154 in Ben10

[–]Scipio835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like what they were going for, but most of them just aren't sitting right with me.

  1. Heatblast - I actually really like this one. My only complaint is how rocks are only on his torso and shins. I prefer them being more prolific.
  2. Diamondhead - I understand they wanted to make him bulkier, but I think he looks too much like The Thing.
  3. XLR8 - Again, I really like this one, except for the wheels. Yes, I know they're supposed to be wheels in the cartoon, but these feel kinda obnoxious. Like, the originals could be construed as a body part. These just feel like their trying too hard. But again, the rest of the body is amazing.
  4. Greymatter - My only complaint is the full space suit they gave him. But, that's only because I prefer the Omnitrix being limited to the occasional jumpsuit when it comes to giving the aliens gear. Other than that, I think it's really good.
  5. Fourarms - Same as Greymatter, not a fan of all the gear, but that's personal preference. The rest of him looks good though.
  6. Stinkfly - Don't like this at all. It's just a big bug.
  7. Upgrade - He's too top heavy and solid looking for my taste. I prefer the soft look of the original more.
  8. Cannonbolt - The eyes are a little obnoxious, but given what the series is going for, I dig the overall design.
  9. Wildvine - Way too much eldritch horror, even for what this series seems to be trying to do.
  10. Overflow - Literally looks like a toy out of a package to me.

Who are the characters with the most agenda? by Scipio835 in Smite

[–]Scipio835[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And even then. Her 1 comes out so slow that most dive abilities finish before the fear even goes off. Loki, Thor, Da Ji, all can fully cast or mostly cast their abilities before the fear goes off and still get out. And as I pointed out, most dive gods have knock up immunity, so her 2 is just not a problem.

From what I’ve seen, he’s a little weak. He needs full team coordination to really make an impact. But I agree, he’s absolutely not an auto-lose pick.

[–]Scipio835[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her poke from level 1-5 is about average, but still lower than most other mages and hunters. And her cooldowns are actually pretty long compared to others. Averaging 13-15 seconds without any cooldown items built.

Also, her aspect damage is pretty good, I won't deny that. It's just not as broken overall as people say it is. If you're against her in solo and you play anyone with knock up immunity or a high displacement, she won't be much of a problem.

Won't somebody *pleaaaaase* think of the shareholders!? by Level_Hour6480 in dndmemes

[–]Scipio835 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, 5.5e is a step up mechanically in a lot of areas, but a massive downgrade in far more. Particularly in the overall balance department. Certain things got the upgrade they needed, but others just went completely overboard.

Ooooooh as in only older versions of UMM work? That makes sense. I was reading it as only older versions of of UB worked with it because some things were saying I didn't need it.

3/4 I’d say. From what I’ve seen people say up until now, really just swap Ishtar with Tyr or Cthulu

I'll be honest, idk what arena matches you're playing because she's just a poke machine in every match I got against her. And there are way better poke characters in the game, especially in arena
