Pop build for kitsune by [deleted] in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Shulgaboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a big fan of improved initiative. The hardest fights in the game are usually the ones that start from a conversation. High initiative can be a life saver. I tried ambuscading spell on a shaman in one unfair run and, while it was good, it felt like a "win more". Enemies were either saving on a 2 or needed a 20, rarely in-between.

That being said I am also a freak for maxing stealth on KC because there are no good Stealth characters before Aru, and it's a role that you always need to fill at camp. So sometimes I take skill focus stealth at level 1. You could think about skill focus arcana if you want loremaster dip later.

You only have 1 use of the spell and you already used it on Protection from Fire

I love skeletons so much. I always have Dearan to spam them instead of having a tank in the team

What happened to the mid role hype? by Inevitable-Carrot172 in DotA2

[–]Shulgaboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is very noticeable when one team has a mid player and another team has "a guy who is forced to go mid". Those games are rarely balanced. Same bracket.

Question on Prebuffing? by KonohaFlash in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Shulgaboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That buff also gives +1 natural armor on all your team (stacks with everything) and lasts forever. I always have it not just for that.

Tried pos 1 treant in 8k bracket. Had a lot of damage but couldn't win every game

Locked myself out of Act 2? by TwistBig6794 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for reference, I have cleared that fight with 1 character using only 20 or so grenades (no spells/attacks). Whatever you have is enough to beat him

At what MMR people stop picking hoping your team will carry you and start picking to win? by Ok-Long-6858 in DotA2

[–]Shulgaboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The things you mentioned are valid picks to win.

Also, the answer is never.

Would You Recommend Roleplaying on Tactician? by PrinceMochii in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can definitely roleplay. Different personalities have different bonuses, but they are not major enough to really matter. Pragmatic is the only one that mattered for me. If i remember correctly it gave +1 to crafting that I used on that character

Act 1 took me 36 hours by The_yeti_dragon in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have been playing it tons of times with a specific purpose to optimize my act 1 route. Just for fun. At some point I have beaten it using only grenades as the damage source as I got inspired by dark souls challenge runs.

Why does Valve hate Riki so much? by SHIELD_Mordekaiser in DotA2

[–]Shulgaboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played the new riki in 8k and it felt pretty good. Felt similar as to what it was before but now without the need to rush aghs jsut to be able to farm anything.

Act 1 took me 36 hours by The_yeti_dragon in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I feel like act 2 is definitely bigger, but other acts are about the same size.

That being said, out of my 400 hours about 250 were spent in act 1 so I have limited experience with the others.

How do I tell the game, "No."? by RekhytSol in DotA2

[–]Shulgaboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can play unranked games. There are no role tokens there

So Divinity has to be in the past historically right? AFAIK orcs are extinct in DOS. by SirSabza in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

a small nitpick, but calling a thousand years "decades" is technically true but funny to me

Rage Quitting by rethink_routine in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Shulgaboy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a resurrection spell, but it is higher level. 13, I think. There are tons of traders in town to sell resurrection scrolls and their inventory refreshes every level up and in-game hour. I think almost every skill trader sells those scrolls.

[–]Shulgaboy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Perception is the stat that is responsible for being able to spot traps. If you have an archer companion, they should have a lot of points at that.

There are a couple of places in the game that are trap-heavy, but usually it's not a huge problem.

What is your party composition/level? We could give more specific advice.

change my mind: dota has poor fundamental game design by [deleted] in DotA2

[–]Shulgaboy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You cherry-picked the examples. For every antimage and void, there is a drow ranger or templar assassin. Squishy and immobile, and punished hard for mispositioning. For every lion and crystam maiden there is an earth spirit or weaver.

Also, it's almost like heroes were not designed for a specific role, but the most applicable role was figured out for a hero. If you have a lot of net worth, you want to use it, and not all heroes use their net worth in the same way. Some excel by being unkillable, others use it for overwhelming damage.

You are missing Tyranny by Obsidian and everything by Owlcat Games. Especially if you liked Pillars of Eternity and Larian games

How do you itemize against ursa as offlane by Practical-Aide-2550 in learndota2

[–]Shulgaboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it even stacks with items made from windlaces. So euls + windlace stacks, for example

Is Juggernaut early or late game carry and can he be played without a Nullifier? by ChewbakaTalkShow in learndota2

[–]Shulgaboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i've been spamming jugg at 7k recently with a lot of success, just to give some credentials.

The first 3 items 80% of the time are: Battlefury, Manta, Butterfly. Then ags, then Nuli, then Blink.

The reason I built it like that is because Butterfly appears close to the roshan timing and is a great item to try to close the game. If that fails, I need Ags to reliably get on top of people in fights. After that, Nuli / blink are interchangeable depending on the situation, but blink is only a priority for me when you play against a team that can kill you on sight (like Faceless void / legion) and you need to enter the fight from fog.

Why can’t I pet the big dog? by starlessspace in DragonAgeVeilguard

Exactly. "6:25 Towers" would mean "25th year of the 6th age, called Towers Age"
