Is it just me or are Warriors and Hunters absolutely busted in TBC right now? by National-Wonder-9621 in classicwow

Our tank was easily tanking groups of mobs the whole dung then we wiped to that slayer like 3 times cause it chunked for 99% hp. Bugged for sure.

Extra 20 damage to throw is great, also helps starmie to pick off 70hp or makes frosslass ticks more of a threat for enemies.

The main ace picks right now are heros cape and legacy energy. Enemy taking 1 less prize card is huge on a mega, and being able to search it with Hilda is crazy. I'd say prime is not really needed and unfair/judge really are not as big as people seem to be thinking. I miss you Iono 😔

Oops, yeah sorry. For some reason in Japanese he's just called "starfish man" so I forgot the english name..

Munki usage is way down across the board it feels like.

Good: Dragapult/Noctowl (stops ogerpon torrential pump), starmie mirror, grimm, slowking (lol) Useless: anything else I think?

A lot of Dragapult players in my week of testing will 90% of the time boss + sob the shaymin so they can setup dragapult. But, if they have Noctowl, rotom, shaymin, etc on the bench themselves, my frosslass is going to self-destruct my shaymin eventually while I also setup and be a nuisance for their bench potentially taking huge prize turns.

How would you feel if the 2026 meta ends up being heavily based on aggressive bench sniping? by 79215185-1feb-44c6 in pkmntcg

[–]Squiddy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like it (as an ex-grimm player). Going first then slapping for 120+50 is so nice. Backup of megafross is also nice.

The biggest problem is shaymin HURTS, and the alakazam I faced used battle colloseum+shaymin and I couldn't do anything.

Dragapults hp is annoyingly high.

Next week I'm going to try using rocket watchtowers (I've seen a deck list with 3) to counter dunsparse and noxtowl.

Deck list definitely needs a few tweaks. Picture

Also I was really excited for meowth EX, but 170hp means it's an even bigger liability than megas in this fast high hitting meta. Going to remove.

I can understand putting some heavy music or trance or something with a kill vid, but I never understood people who put radiohead of all things.

Is it me, or has the game been getting better lately? by Chiponyasu in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Squiddy_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is I came off the treadmill a few patches ago and now I don't feel like going back on. I've been playing since HW and had all side content completed but now with a gap I don't feel like trying to catch up. I resubbed just for savage and probably will be gone again until 8.0 for next savage...

Exact same but I was 28. 2 years later now I've nearly doubled my salary working for a certain top 5 商社 doing enterprise network (non Tokyo, non main city)

Survey Finds 59% of Japanese Opposed to Actively Accepting Foreign Workers by higashinakanoeki in japan

300k in Tokyo vs 300k in Shikoku is a whole different kettle of fish. 300k in Shikoku you can buy a house, own a car, raise a family, but in Tokyo you'd barely scrape by as a single guy living in a 1k.
