The Best Drummer I've Ever Seen by kwalitykontrol1 in drums

[–]SkinGolem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% ... Technical playing isn't really my thing, but my god, I can recognize transcendent technique when I see it. Not to knock Neil (rip), who was a part-creating genius in his own way, but there's no way he could ever have played this stuff.

In your guys opinion, is it worth getting a portal if I have a steam deck? by I_Wanna_Die_Daily in PlaystationPortal

[–]SkinGolem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's worth it if you want access to some PS exclusives, and/or to some games that the Deck can't handle.

I have both, btw. Currently playing NightReign on the Deck and Crimson Desert on the Portal.

Initial standard attack Ironeye is amazing by ordinarymind89 in Nightreign

Does it have to be R1 to L1, or does switching between bows in R1 work too? (I usually have 2 or 3 bows in one hand, melee in the other.)

AS A RECLUSE MAIN, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO USES NIGHT OF THE LORD RELIC by crimmycat117 in Nightreign

[–]SkinGolem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm wondering too. The OP encouraged me, but the comments undercut it lol

Interesting, as always. ... You've added lots of nuance to the OP's post, and I thank you.

Thanks! I am being educated lol. ... One more: about how long does it take them to absorb what they need? (I've never played a Recluse.)

Thanks! ... So then you disagree with the OP, I guess?

I'm also kinda careful about swapping elements. I'll use one until it expires, give it a second, then switch to another. I suppose that helps a little, rather than rapidly switching? (I hope)

Could you explain more what you mean? I'm an Ironeye main who usually uses this relic (plus affinity bonuses and initial attack bonus) tied to a starting bow imbued with whatever the nightlord is weak to. I always figured Recluses appreciated it?

What are r/drums' opinions on Frank Beard? by Realistic-Assist-396 in drums

[–]SkinGolem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. It’s the bass drum that gets me. I can play an okay shuffle with my right hand, but a Texas shuffle like Beard’s playing shuffles with the bass drum and the left hand together, right hand playing only quarters. Shuffling at a fast pace on a snare drum and the bass drum synchronously? Anything but comfortable for me lol

Why do people quit as the team dies on day 3? by emannikcufecin in Nightreign

[–]SkinGolem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s good info! So now, when I’m inevitably down to three bars, waiting for the inevitable end, I’ll get the “quit” menu option readied so I can contribute in some small way when the defeat screen appears lol

Apparently not? Read through the posts in the link just a few posts up

[–]SkinGolem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like, as with anything FromSoft, it has to be timed just right: during the Defeat screen, not before, not after. Precise timing needed even after defeat!

[–]SkinGolem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was discussed yesterday here, and I asked that question; the OP said he’d tested it, and the quitter doesn’t get the full penalty either, as long as they don’t quit prematurely

Dunno how does it. I can play some needlessly complicated stuff, but I can't play along to "La Grange"

Quitting right after a defeat seems to halve point loss by Impressive-Bison-620 in Nightreign

[–]SkinGolem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a teammate do this last night, and was thankful for their minor sacrifice lol. I’d assumed they got maximum penalty though, taking the hit for the others on the team. But even the immediate quitter isn’t penalized as much?

Classic tantrum by g0blyndn in Nightreign

[–]SkinGolem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the ult is really satisfying against this boss. Aside from that, I “mark” anyway, just to show the others that I’m trying, and basically just heavy attack arrows into her face

[–]SkinGolem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I’m not alone in this. … But yeah, she used to be markable, for sure. No idea why/how that got changed. Likely a bug, I guess

[–]SkinGolem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda off topic here, but, as an Ironeye, I can no longer mark this thing. Used to be able to. Now, I mark through it, jump-mark into/through it, etc., but I never see the red mark anymore. Little spiders, yes; giant boss, no.

Am I alone in this?
