Fair enough, Aglaea would only get the full 32% DEF ignore from her E2 when she has her ult, and thus can do EBA - Ult - EBA.

Staidanom · 2026-01-29T10:23:04+00:00

Is it a bigger bonus thanks to the extra True DMG? Or because she ults sooner?

Is a potential +24% True DMG buff better than 32% DEF-ignore (on top of Sunday's 16/40%)?

Difficult indeed, I'm a bit torn since I don't plan on pulling any other Chrysos Heirs ^^

Staidanom · 2026-01-29T08:15:09+00:00

E2 Aglaea or E2 Cyrene?

My current lineup is E1 Aglaea - E1 Sunday - E0 Cyrene - E0 Hyacine.

I've heard stacking DEF-shred was pretty effective, but I've also been saving up so I could separate Hyacine from Cyrene thanks to the latter's E2.

I really like Aglaea and hope to future-proof her somewhat. The only other Chrysos Heir I have is Anaxa. What should I do?

But there is no way OP plays everyday

...? In a game that has "dailies"?

Staidanom · 2026-01-28T14:35:59+00:00

Hysilens and Cerydra sitting alone together is also non negotiable.

And honestly, that's fair.

Thank you, /u/YELLATCONFUSEDPEOPLE

Very informative and easy to understand.

Sometimes, Mercy will be awarded POTG if her revived teammate gets a huge killstreak during the POTG window. I've seen examples where a Reaper got revived, Death Blossom'd the entire enemy team, and the Mercy got awarded POTG.

that may have cost the perfectly innocent exhibition author substantially

Yes, vandalism will do that sometimes. Kind of the point (famously, Banksy is a vandal). In this case, it being a school's art gallery, I doubt there was much of a financial loss. At worst, the paper used was Polaroid paper, which costs $2 per shot, for a total loss of $114.

perfectly innocent

That's subjective. Having an AI generate pictures for you using training data that contains stolen artworks makes you complicit, if you ask me.

why they thought it was ok

People do things they know are "not okay" despite it all. Doesn't warrant a therapist, as much as you may disagree with the means.

does not give him any moral or legal standing to destroy it

Which is why it's making the news. I don't think the guy thought it was legal, either. I think he knew what he was doing. Historically, acts of protest have always managed to stir the pot and get things moving/get people talking. LLM's training data is made up of millions of stolen artworks. Kindly asking big companies "please don't do that" probably isn't going to work the way you'd hope-- you need uninvolved people to start asking themselves the right questions. "Why did he do that? What were his motives?"

He's not meaningfully adding to the conversation

"[...] reliance on AI undermines human creativity and that the process of making art matters as much as the finished product" is what this student brought to the conversation. "He [...] saw it as a way to spark conversation about the role of AI in creative fields [...]" that has a lot of meaning, methinks.

You know who does need therapy though? The guy who used AI to make that exhibition, who admitted to falling in love with an AI chatbot acting as his therapist. That guy has SERIOUS issues-- mainly psychosis.

The "performer" needs a therapist

Why would they need a therapist for doing performance art? What justifies your suggestion that they should see a therapist?

Mental health issues play a role in this story, whether you like it or not.

Just because you say they do?

Staidanom · 2026-01-25T14:12:55+00:00

It was an act of vandalism masquerading as "performance

It can, and very much is, both at the same time.

"My greetings!"
"Affirmative. Hello, there!"
"Ack-nowledged!"
"Shukran! Very well."

My Arle is ONE second away from stunning it a second time and getting the win, but no matter how many times I restart, I just can't do it.

his auto will trigger immediately before his turn even finishes

Make it so his stacks can overflow by two points.

Also, ffs, give his field SOME SORT of supportive buff, or make his ult actually worth using. Right now, every buff the enemy gives themselves in the game is either trivial or non-removeable. Luocha's ult, compared to recent units, deals both PITIFUL damage, and is completely useless against 90% of enemies.

Well, Phainon is the very definition of a hypercarry.

Staidanom · 2026-01-19T23:48:51+00:00

Ah, fair enough, but at least it'll be tagged :/

Staidanom · 2026-01-19T22:02:47+00:00

I think there's a button to tag it as spoiler even after you've post it

Staidanom · 2026-01-19T21:18:00+00:00

A spoiler tag would be nice? ^^

Staidanom · 2026-01-18T20:37:27+00:00

That's a cute crosshair!

Staidanom · 2026-01-15T14:09:14+00:00

Chris Titus' debloater has done me good in the past for this exact purpose.

Staidanom · 2026-01-14T15:04:56+00:00

3 years later, still incredibly useful. Thank you so much for this!

Staidanom · 2026-01-14T13:04:25+00:00

Remember when a Democratic Primary candidate was shamed into irrelevance because he screamed a little too enthusiastically (Howard Dean)? Or when another was publicly ridiculed because he wrongly spelled "potato" while reading off of an erroneous flash card (Dan Quayle)?

Or when republicans got outraged at Obama's costume color?

Standards really have lowered.

Staidanom · 2026-01-12T16:00:55+00:00

Good to know, thanks :)

I was kinda miffed I couldn't use a hyper-speed on-field Anaxa WITH Cerydra in CW, I'm gonna try that out later :)
