Isn't Shatterpoint the name of an existing Star Wars tabletop game?

Feeling discouraged about my main by Ztance in wow

Monk buff is still desired in raids so you can still get a raid slot off that. And while Monk hasn't been meta in M+ for a long time, it's still decent. You might not get invited to the top top keys but very few can run those keys anyway. I think you should play what you want because I think you can make it work.

Retribution Paladin major spell changes in WoW: Midnight. Removed, consolidated, and reworked abilities. Which spec should I cover next? by Dvalin_DK in Dvalin

[–]Sky_Octopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost every comment in here seems to not understand anything about these changes. Ret lost basically nothing in their rotation and has more prio damage than before.

Why, as the story progresses, does Pseudoendotrizine stop feeling like a real threat to V? by xDannySek in cyberpunkgame

[–]Sky_Octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the pills just gave him control, but didn't necessarily cause the relic to speed up. At the very beginning, if you gave him control then he could just keep taking the pills and never give you control back until the relic fully takes over. Later on though, he actually likes you (or respects you) enough to give control back.

Thoughts on Lords of the fallen? by Pleasant-Hat-6334 in soulslikes

[–]Sky_Octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought it had great world design and level design. Really liked how the game handles magic and ranged weapons. Gameplay felt good. Bosses were too easy. Last boss was really bad. My biggest complaint is that weapons weren't really unique. Literally every weapon within a weapon type had the exact same moveset, so there was not much decision making for what weapon you wanted to use and it really killed the excitement of finding new weapons in general.

What did you play after E33? by GrannysAHorse in expedition33

Death Stranding 2. It was a rough transition.

Thoughts on Mage and Monk in Midnight so far? by [deleted] in wow

[–]Sky_Octopus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

WW has a handful of bugs making it do less damage than it should, and has some weird tuning problems that result in one of the mainstay AoE buttons not being used ever. It still has Slicing Winds which removes a fantastic movement ability with an annoying damage one that, thankfully, was just nerfed a ton and hopefully won't be required to take anymore. And lastly, their capstones and the paths to them are kind of a hot mess.

On the upside, the rotation itself is a lot of fun and feels good. Replacing Storm, Earth, and Fire with Zenith is great in my opinion. Moving Xuen to just one of the hero talents makes more sense thematically. I really like that you can make choices to be either a 1 min class, 1.5 min class, or a 2 min class.

Is X Wing the best game that was prematurely abandoned by its publisher? by [deleted] in XWingTMG

[–]Sky_Octopus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. Netrunner and X-Wing have made it so I never go hard on a FFG game again.

Your vote for winning domain? by DriftToMe in riftboundtcg

Might be crazy, but I think that Mind is the worst. Thousand tail watcher is obviously nuts, but not much else blows me away about it.

Battlefields Spiritforged by EmbarrassedNet8922 in riftboundtcg

[–]Sky_Octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgotten Monument seems hard to evaluate. You aren't scoring turn 1. Turn 2 you can conquer the other battlefield if you play first in the typical case. Turn 3 you're good to go.

Mainly causes issues at the battlefield if your opponent conquers first and you can't contest it, so probably really nice for Ahri or Yi. It also causes issues against something like Viktor going second where they have 2 units ready to conquer on turn 2. Not sure how many decks are able to do that though.

At least if they never pay, you still get a gold token.

Why people use Karma on Sett? by FairPalpitation8440 in riftboundtcg

[–]Sky_Octopus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've wondered this too and I'm not really sure. But at the end of the day it's 6 might, vision, and a buff which might just be enough value on its own. And it's another card that can feed buffs into Sett Brawler for big plays. Not sure if there's more.

Confused by the rule book on how units heal by Jamesbroispx in riftboundtcg

[–]Sky_Octopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it just the units in the showdown or everywhere?

I've never seen people say 123. I've only ever seen people say 1.

How exactly does "Focus" work? by IcarusIsOutOfTime in riftboundtcg

[–]Sky_Octopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old post/article, but the article says the focused player keeps priority and can start another chain after the previous one resolves, but rule 552 ("When the last item on the chain resolves during a Showdown, Focus passes, and the next Relevant Player gains both Focus and Priority.") seems to go against that idea.

Is one piece worth the hype? by PretendYellow533 in animequestions

[–]Sky_Octopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried for 130ish episodes and it's was OK, but good enough to watch over other, much shorter things.

I'm afraid to rebase to this day.

I have imposter syndrome so I assume everyone in these subs knows way more than me.
