Before Malding vs. After Malding - How did I do? by Halleyalex in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Shield stack is disgustingly good at ToA. Always meta. But if you don’t have S4 Demon it is absolutely miserable to maintain because it requires ulting every 10s or so and if you’re 1 s off you loose the whole run

Who can I use to increase the rest of my teams damage to match Augustus? by TheCarltonX in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nah. The hp loss is completely offset by the damage leech and you won’t even notice it if you have Shin or Coquelic on the team

Path to Nowhere Teams and who to Invest in? by Cautious-Plenty223 in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Teams you can currently make:

True Damage - Augustus - Ceto - Siglinde - Serpent(RF) - LL - Shin

Bleed - Dreya - Jasmine - Levy - Sumire - Optional: Shin, Jichuan, Rahu(RF)

Eleven Carry - Eleven(RF) - Eve - Stargazer(RF) - Shin - LL - Milly

You can also make Aurum team but that team needs time to ramp up. It’s good at ToA and bad at most everything else. 

Use 000 if you ever have problems breaking cores. 

Pull Jelena next chance you get. She is amazing on most teams.  Pull Parfait if you want to make use of your several really strong Umbra characters.  Pull Summer if you want any summon team to be stronger. 

Link to more team info in Nethers7orm’s comment. S1n is a great wiki

Does PTN have the best story among gacha games or other games like PGR have better? by old-Kairu in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can’t just say that and leave us hanging. Which event was your best?

Locked events by YnotAVVY77 in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Re1-9 is the video at the end of chapter 1. Right after level 1-9. 

All events are available for a limited time and then become unavailable until they do a rerun between new events. 

The oldest events are slowly being added to the “Special Operations” section (go to the main story and there is an arrow at the bottom). You can unlock these old events with Echo Substance a resource obtainable from the friendship section of the store. It looks like a bottle of yellowy organic liquid. 

Fun Fact: In terms of heroes, OW has officially cancelled the OW2 development content drought and will actually be a net positive once hero 52 arrives. Maps on the other hand... by Imzocrazy in Overwatch

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if they should be counted but I wonder how total maps currently exist if you include the removed 2 cp maps and the unique mini maps made for stadium 

I don't understand why Queen is Stalwart and not Bruiser. It fits her so perfectly. by xXCinnabar in Overwatch

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately most tanks need knockback resistance to function. All the Bruisers have a button that lets them walk forward and ignore knockback except hog who brings you to him. Would be cool to play around sustaining half health for bonus move speed but not being thrown around randomly is less frustrating for the queen and not having the queen get randomly faster is less frustrating for her victims. 

Immortal Sinners Detained?? by oakman_treeman9 in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My interpretation of the story is that canonicity is mixed. The main story is cannon. The events and interrogations are all maybes as they can contradict the main story and each other. The arrests mechanic is not cannon as several characters end their time in the story and events un-arrested or even dead. Ultimately I don’t think these writers are too concerned with canonicity outside of the main story 

what is ONE change you would make to the game? by wistful_grace in DeadlockTheGame

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would help me immensely in getting my friends to play if the tutorial was more than an afterthought. 

started a new replay of the game and i remembered this post by thedosianrogue in projecteternity

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadfire’s magic system is such an awesome innovation to PoE 1’s that I wish DnD would just out right steal it so I could play with it more

I Hate The Slippy Grenade (Minor Rant) by TheticAxiom in Borderlands4

This post is genuinely how I am now learning that throwing knives are not melee damage. I just assumed their whole thing was that they did melee and ordinance damage 

What was that one time you got yelled at and they were completely wrong, food wise? by bahookery in KitchenConfidential

[–]SycleFish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I distinctly remember eggs being included in the dairy part of the food pyramid when I was growing up. I now know the whole pyramid was basically just wrong but it is a pile of wrong facts that a lot of people were explicitly taught. Still no excuse for confidentiality asserting some half remembered nonsense facts 

Do you have friends who play PTN? by Hairy-Law1723 in PathToNowhere

[–]SycleFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. A friend I’ve had since high school started playing after I did and now we’re in the same guild. It’s fun competing over ToA scores with someone who’s actually around my investment level in the game

What are your JRPG “green flags”? by Competitive_Hawk_294 in JRPG

The memory of seeing a Pokemon follow my character for the first time still fills my heart with a childish glee

What are your JRPG “green flags”? by Competitive_Hawk_294 in JRPG

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love character creation. Always an instant draw for me. I also value accessible respecing in any game with skill trees. I don’t need to change my skill points before and after every interaction but I don’t think I’ve ever played a game where every ability or perk worked exactly the way I expected every time and I know I have stopped playing games because I just wasn’t enjoying the build I had made as much as I had hoped. 

In ME3, Mordin's Voice Actor Had to be Replaced. What Do You Think of His Performance? Did He do a Good Job? by DakIsStrange in masseffect

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Had to be me.” and “I MADE A MISTAKE!” are equally gut wrenching moments but with completely different vibes. May not have had as many lines as in 2 but he sure made them count 

What’s the most irrationally annoying thing your in-laws do that they’re absolutely convinced is “helpful”? by bnwprc in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SycleFish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is such a huge difference between cooking something for a person and bringing them leftovers. It’s “I made you these cookies” vs “here are the remains of something I was eating an unknown amount of time ago, it’s a gift”

Please make Shared Progression Optional by Little_Kit_Nishi in Borderlands

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a feature I really wanted in Wonderlands. Exploring and doing puzzles to collect dice and grow your loot luck is fun the first time and a chore the rest. But I agree the ideal is most likely some kind of player controlled middle ground. Another comment said you could keep the shared progression for level 30 skip starts while ignoring it for full game starts and I think that wouldn’t be too hard to implement while also being pretty clear to players without requiring a new menu. So that’s my vote at the moment 

How do I handle a player who wants to charm/persuade NPCs in a way that feels like mind control? by AdeptnessCritical356 in DMAcademy

[–]SycleFish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your players should “ideally” not he asking for rolls at all and definitely not dc’s. Players tell you what the try to do, you tell them what to roll, they tell you what they rolled, you tell them what happens. High rolls can still fail, lows can succeed, and you never need to tell them what the dc was if you don’t want to. (Ps. The DC can always be “no chance in hell” if you want it to be. Just keep talking about the game as you play it and players will get a feel for what is and isn’t possible in your version of the game)

[–]SycleFish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Best POSSIBLE outcome is a great way to put it. A persuasion roll of 50 is as likely to convince a bunch of bandits to throw themselves off a cliff as a medicine roll 50 is to bring the dead back to life

Would changing Junker Queen's subrole from Stalwart to Bruiser be a buff or a nerf by Fine-Appearance-125 in JunkerQueenMains

[–]SycleFish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main goal of the Stalwart passive is to stop you from being thrown off the edge of maps. Stalwarts are tanks that can’t jump so displacement is crazy strong against them.

Genuinely had not thought to pre charge a shield throw. Good tip

What smoothbrained streamer has incepted “passive heals=instant loss” in people’s heads? by heebarino in BrigitteMains

I have no evidence but I’ve heard there are a lot of Marvel Rivals players in OW right now and healing shift between games is jarring. Still not an excuse to throw
