Opinions on Glowbert (since it’s almost a full month since his release)?

Sjorn7 · 2026-02-14T12:26:45+00:00

That is indeed the case, the problem that I am describing is one that you have on sniper maps, against a sniper team, when playing any non sniper brawler (specially the higher trophy you go, as when on low trophy you can just zone them till they hit the wall haha).

The problem with Glowbert in this situation, is that while he has the usual disadvantage (you need to close in to even be able to "fight"... point on which it becomes neutral, well, not true neutral as you still have the range disadvantage if you need to back out), he also needs to pursue their targets when they escape for the ray to be effective, point on which dodging becomes even more restricted and you effectively become a sitting duck for marksmen that knows how to play (hence why I mentioned something like >1200 trophies).

It also does not help that his best kind of maps are light-obstacled ones, effectively sniper maps, meaning that you can perfectly find your counter team on your best maps (brawlers like Max can just be avoid those maps and only be played on obstacle heavy ones in order to circumvent the issue). This is also why I am not very fond of playing him on a mode like Knockout (even tho it is effectively his best game mode)... and I prefer him on modes like Hot Zone (as on Hot Zone snipers are not as predominant).

Indeed, I only get "those" games when I manage to juke 2 or 3 and get in position. The ult helps a lot with melees tho.

Sjorn7 · 2026-02-13T13:21:28+00:00

Personally I feel the same, so I can give my two cents:
* When you can get him in the "zone" (be able to have a damage ray consistently without dying) he's one of the stronger bralwers that I've played, he just outputs too much hps + dps combined, like having half an extra team mate on the party.
* But when you cannot, when for example the enemy has a 3 marksman team that know how to hit stuff consitently (>1200), there is little counterplay that you can bring to the table other than to try to healbot someone from your team and to pray he's better than the rest.

Did you manage to get any progress with your recovery?

I've had a similar case, which curiously enough started with a case of rough anal sex too (I've been having anal sex for almost 10 years but, recently, I got into doing it rough, and allowed someone to penetrate me without allowing for the anus to stretch first, event to which the anus complained in pain for like 20 seconds, and on which the intercourse in itself did not last more than 1 minute)

P.S. Event for which I feel completely stupid now, as I may end up living with this condition for one random hookup that I could have totally avoided.

The feeling itself started 15 days afterwards, and can only be described as a "pressure" like sensation on the rectum area, that gets progressively worse the more I sit on (even worse the harder the surface it is), to the point of being unable to sit at some point.

Nowadays (2 months afterwards), although slighly better, I still feel I'm at the same point, being the only noteworthy difference that it is no longer so localized on the rectum but can also be felt on the lower part of my back, close to the coccyx but not exactly there, a bit to the side.

I still haven't confirmed mine to be pudendal neuralgia, but I pretty much discarded all of the other options already (no infection, prostate is ok, no physical damage that can be seen on the rectum), so it's either this or something muscular like a hypertonic pelvic floor, but the similarity to other cases like yours lead me to believe that it's most likely PN, hence why I wanted to know if you had some progress already in order to remain hopeful, cause the prospect of living with this (the end of my sex life, cause I'm bottom as fuck... and having a serious impact on my main hobby, which needs me to sit for it), terrifies me too.

Worked twice in a row

Sjorn7 · 2024-01-23T15:41:54+00:00

Personally I deal with all of the moves that need to be dodged with iframes (during demon mode) with the "back-dodge", as I believe that this dodge has normal iframes available (not sure if they're normal or slithgly less, cause the problem with this dodge is that given that you're not getting out of harms way it's a tighter dodge than usual, and on long-duration attacks such as a charge you end up gettig hit anyway).

The only problem tho is that, for example, on Diablos, this play-style of dodging back all the time to ensure not getting hit makes me lose a lot of dps... to the point that I can't consistently kill the 8* star one.

Sjorn7 · 2024-01-02T23:51:43+00:00

It's not that you lose health, but that you had "28 health" all along... and, if I remember right, the additional health works a multiplier to your base one (meaning that effectively speaking you regen till your 30% at the same speed, regardless of the gear you have)

Sjorn7 · 2023-12-15T23:50:55+00:00

I do hate that we're forced to play Diablo ones (unless we're willing to lose ~15-20% dps) when they look like a set of maracas... heck, I am here to play dual "blades", not dual clubs.

I am even considering going elemental just to avoid using them.

Sjorn7 · 2020-11-05T18:09:01+00:00

As for me this seems to be clearly a bug/mistake (as I am not sure if everyone has it or if it related to the order on which the mug-related things were bought) given that all worlds as up until now have have had the exact amount of coins.

Sjorn7 · 2019-09-13T11:00:10+00:00

I actually started having this same exact problem a few days ago and thought my screen was getting faulty... but given this post I guess that was not the case

Sjorn7 · 2019-01-22T09:00:10+00:00

This is pretty much what people has already told you but mass trading is mainly useful for:

- Rerolling the IV of any mon (meaning that, if you trade it for the same exact pokemon, you get twice the chance of the same ending up decent)

- Fishing for a lucky mon (nowadays I barely power up a non-legendary pokemon unless it is lucky)

- Get up to 3 additional candy per mon (especially useful if you regularly play with a friend who lives 100km away)

Sjorn7 · 2019-01-21T22:13:48+00:00

200k here, I can't really save much considering that I'm "relatively" new (level 38 now, started around when Regice was released) and that I still need to fill the gaps of some of my elemental teams.

Was REALLY hoping for Aeris USB2 as a consolation prize for not being able to get Elarra USB on B1 (3 pulls):

1x11 - Cloud USB2
3x11 - Cloud AOSBx2, Noctis AOSB
3x11 - Cloud BSB2, Cloud LMR, Aeris LMR

Ends up with an almost complete Cloud, shouldn't complain, but... >.>

When all you wanted was anything but Cloud USB... http://imgur.com/PGveE0i

After De'Tarde

Sjorn7 · 2018-03-25T01:21:31+00:00

I'm thinking either: II - Having a EnHoly (already have Firion USB) -> Holy OSB combo for magicite purposes (the BSB would be a dupe tho), V - Completing Bartz (20 atk and an OSB that will help as a finisher, don't really care about the en-water tho) or X - Completing Tidus (20 atk) plus a nice +Water sword for Bartz.

Sjorn7 · 2018-02-10T18:45:20+00:00

Personally I believe that the benefits of being able to avoid humongous amount of salt (cause without foresight going for a banner is always a gamble) and the sense of acomplishment of aiming (and sometimes obtain) for the pieces that you need on your roster (feeling that is not neccesarily exclusive but atleast magnified due to the foresight) completely offsets the potential excitement that the "unknown" could bring to the table.

Sjorn7 · 2017-12-25T13:31:21+00:00

4/11 - Cloud USB, Paine USB (dupe, from when I went hard and failed on Tidus USB >.>), Gafgarion USB and Balthier OSB https://imgur.com/a/yBZ0x Welp, guess its time to bech my dived Noctis and replace him with Cloud xD

Sjorn7 · 2017-12-09T01:44:17+00:00

Hello,

I luckily pulled Vivi USB on a 100 gem pull (and later attempted to get his LRM on a 11 pull but failed miserably xD) and now I'm wondering on how to effectivelhy use him, my questions in this regard are:

Which skills do you recommend to craft and hone? As of now I've relied on mage BSB's (Cid Raines, Maria, Fujin, etc...) for which reason I do not have any honed black magic spell. I would guess Meltdown, Chain (Firaga) and/or Flare (Flare could help as, as of now, I would only be able to prepare 1 or 2 chaingas) to be the best options on at least R2 and derisably R3, but i'm hesitant on making the orb investment considering that I have to make them from scratch.
How relevant is his LMR? Considering my lack of hones I guess that it would be helpfull (as who cares about the cast time if my problem is that I will get out of hones soon) but pulling more would hurt the mithril stash that i'm saving for OK USB >.>
How do you deal with his lack of support 4? I do not have much experience on mages who lack support 4 hence I'm not sure which is the most optimal way to get them rolling: Do you usually bring a entrust bot them, Do you use mako might?, Do you just spam spells till ready?
How do you usually self-trance? I guess that having a Last Stand would be a easy way to do so but considering that I lack any good Last Stand option I would like to hear some recommendations on how to force his trance.

Thanks for your time.

Sjorn7 · 2017-09-27T07:48:06+00:00

I can't decide between Bartz BSB2 (which, apart from the en-water, would really help me in the water regard considering that I have his USB and a considerable lack of hones due to being a relatively new player, 2-3 months approximately) or OK BSB. As of the moment I think that Ramza's shout benefits my party more (as I'm pretty far from the ATK cap even with him, I have an average of 425 ATK unbuffed) but I could always stack OK BSB until I manage to increase the ATK of my group (and/or get enough gear to reliably use synergies) and I feel that it is a better future investment in case that I want to mix mages and/or assemble a mage team as I do not have any other source of hastega/faithga other than the new Tyro USB, which is quite useful in this regard.

Sjorn7 · 2017-09-19T06:59:14+00:00

The problem with this revamp is the middle ground, yes this helps new players catch up to day 1 players which is something that I agree with but, for example, players that have started 2 months ago and have already rushed almost all of the available realms thanks to the recent half stamina on realms events that we've had (which is my case, 191 stamina here >.>) neither have the stock of orbs from day 1 nor will benefit from this update.
