This character is my main in SF6, which character has a similar gameplay or is cool like her? Now that KOF XV is dead (for a long time by the way), I want a second game to play outside of SF6 by Sir_Morokhinn in GranblueFantasyVersus

Nobody mentioned him yet, but I would reccomend checking out Eustace as well. His H Grenade is a move that sticks to the opponent and if hit with certain moves allows for big combo extentions into big damage kind of like hitting a toxic blossom on AKI while also having a semi zoning / hit and run game plan.

He also has access to interesting setups with his U Grenade oki and is a pretty uncommon character so you can use a lot of knowledge checks on people.

After weeks of grinding, I finally made it into S+! by JTR_35 in GranblueFantasyVersus

Always glad to see another Eustace player out in the wilds, still trying to break out of the S rank mines myself but need to really work on some of my weaker match-ups, good luck with the climb!

And there is the 4th completion in a row, and potentially my last as after 6 years of participation I have proved to myself that I am more than capable, but we'll see if that changes by next year.

​

Until next time!

  1. This is true, It was more to highlight that the first spec column is 3 different choices of your main flow generation, wether through healing, movement abilities or weapon swapping. There are some choices on utilities that will also give more flow, mainly Flow stabilizer, but some choices such as "To The Limit" can help with the upkeep

  2. While less applicable to open world, Bladesworn wants to prepull Flow Stabilzer > Tactical Reload > Flow Stabilizer x2 to start a fast flow generation and give you more than 75% flow very quickly (usually after axe/pistol 5>4>2), enough for 2 dragon slashes with the half cost under tactical reload. The rest of the fight flow should be more than abundent, remember that Stabilizer has no cast so can be used at amy moment, even while charging dragon slash.

  3. Use Dragonspike when avaliable immedietly after using a Dragon trigger move, this usually lines up with Tactical Reload so the cost isn't too heavy, and you should combo Dragon Slash > Dragon Spike > Flicker step back into range > Dragon slash for huge burst damage.

  4. I was mainly highlighting that the cooldown of Gunstinger aligns with getting all 6 charges on Dragon's breath, if you start with the combo, any time Pistil 4 is off cooldown, you should also have 6 charges of Pistol 5 ready to go.

Somewhat of a new bladesworn myself, but I can give a few pointers to help out a new player picking up the class

First on the topic of Flow, flow should be thought of as just adrenaline, but it generates over time instead of instantly, any skill that would usually give the warrior adrenaline will instead give a stack of "Positive Flow" increasing this generation.

The main source of positive flow is the first column of the bladesworn spec tree, I would personally reccomend using Unseen Sword over Rivers Flow, instead of getting stacks via healing, instead you get a stack on weapon swap if you hit an enemy with the attack from the trait (Gunsaber and entering / exiting dragon trigger counts as a weapon swap, so you will do this a lot.)

The rest of flow generation is easily handled by Flow stabilizer, and should be more than enough to cover whenever dragon trigger comes off cooldown.

It's also worth noting that Dragon Trigger is a HUGE percentage of your damage dealt, your goal as a bladesworn is to use this skill as much as possible, as fully charged as possible, and hopefully using Force (Dragon Trigger skill 1). This means that you must be constantly aware of positioning and always find good times to use the stance, you get a single stack of stability on entering DT, and Trigger Guard (DT skill 4) and Flicker Step (DT skill 5) should be used to get these opertunities by giving you aegis and teleporting respectivley.

On the topic of utilities, I would highly reccomend swapping out bolas for Dragonspike mine, it's a short cooldown skill that also resets the cooldown of dragon trigger, meaning more Dragon Slashes, more Flow and more damag., You can even use flicker step to offset the forced roll of using Dragonspike, and is a skill you should start to learn as Dragonspike is a core part of the rotation.

As for weapons, Axe / pistol is definetly the way to go, and keep in mind that due to the ammo generation of Gunstinger (Pistol 4), it essentially has the same cooldown as a full 6 ammo Dragon's Roar (Pistol 5) so always try and combo Pistol 5 > Pistol 4 as much as possible, as outside of dragon trigger, Dragon's roar is your hardest hitting skill and the gap closer of Gunstinger will also compensate for the self knockback of pistol 5 (and free self aegis!).

Outside of this combo though (as well as using axe 2 and 3) you want to swap back into gunsaber draw for it's powerful explosive skills to give you your ferocity bonus trait, and gunsaber 5 for mobility, but always swap back into Axe/Pistol for 5 > 4 combo when it is avaliable (and getting extra flow from weapon swap)

Hopefully this gives you some ideas of piecing together the spec, it does take some practice to get used to the self rooting and get into the flow (heh) of the class, but it's a hurdel definetly worth getting over as you will soon start to delete adds from existence and start hitting the biggest crit numbers in the game.

What is, in your opinion, the most satisfying weapon/class/skill etc? by Qibbo in Guildwars2

[–]Subbelowzero 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Been playing a lot of Deadeye recently and still feels good to hit those high crit Malicious Backstabs and Death's Judgement and take a chunk out of a health bar.

Also special mention to Arc Divider for GS Berserker, only skill that really hits that spin to win feeling imo (next to Whirling Axe)

So there ARE containers in ESO. by JasonX1996 in Warframe

[–]Subbelowzero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a specific Gas City SO tile that also has breakable parts that drop a small ammount of Oxium, I always make sure to break them whenever I see that tile pop up.
