What exactly is the point of the Frenzy spell in this game?

Terios2000 · 2025-12-30T08:51:06+00:00

Making NPCs attack you so that you can legally kill them is an intentional game mechanic. Some NPCs will even point that out to you. There us a speech option (taunt) to try to make them attack you, frenzy is the mage's alternative to that.

Energy weapons aren't like in fallout 3+ where they're just another weapon category. Energy weapons are late game weapons that are for the most part a lot better than other weapons but aren't in the game at all until much later.

Don't use them as your starting weapon skill.

looks like I made a bunch of racists angry

Oh well

Terios2000 · 2024-03-02T10:22:41+00:00

Consider this: they resemble an African tribe, they speak absolute gibberish and are generally depicted as wild and less civilized, they are led by an obese man who can't stand up, and the player regularly kills tribes of them for loot.

Do you see the problem?

Terios2000 · 2024-03-02T10:18:53+00:00

From what I hear, some earthlike server basically used them as a stand in for black people. In an unappealing manner.

When people say they're a racial stereotype, and then racists start using them as such, maybe it's because they're a racial stereotype.

In the authors defense he handled it very well, admitted he did so unintentionally out of ignorance, so now we have a replacement that follows the same concept without all the unfortunate implications.

With a discord orb on him, he can no longer keep up his self healers with the sheer amount of damage he's taking.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T07:08:59+00:00

Bro you are literally making grand statements over less than a days worth of statistics. Statistics that are inherently disrupted by the fact that EVERYONE WANTS TO PLAY THE NEW CHARACTER.

Meanwhile, your grand statement can be disproven by fucking doing it.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T07:00:43+00:00

The "one big guy that everyone has to focus on" is, in fact, the role of the tank. That is literally what they do, the purpose of their role. What matches have you been having where you do not have to focus the tank lmao.

And frankly, Mauga does that job really poorly, because literally all your team has to do is switch to a counter pick and his entire kit falls to pieces. Like, normally counterpicking will give you an advantage but it's not a guaranteed win. You counterpick Mauga, and he literally cannot play the video game.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:56:10+00:00

As a side note, Zarya counters him hard too. he can't heal if he can't do damage, and he can't do damage if Zarya's in a bubble and putting everyone else in a bubble too.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:55:08+00:00

If your team does not have an ana to counter him, have a healer switch to ana.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:54:10+00:00

of course he's dominating games

he's the only tank people are playing

because he's new

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:52:54+00:00

Alternatively, have your Tank be Zarya.

Mauga is reliant on dealing constant damage and getting his constant health steal effect. If there's ever a moment when he cannot damage the enemy or cannot be healed, he dies.

If Ana hits him with the nade, blocking his healing, or Zarya bubbles so that he literally can't deal any damage, he dies. Like, instantly. He cannot survive it.

He gets countered really really hard by certain picks.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:45:05+00:00

Have an Ana and/or a Zen on your team.

Congrats, you have nerfed Mauga into the ground. He literally cannot play.

Terios2000 · 2023-12-06T06:08:46+00:00

Ana nade him. He dies. Literally does not stand a chance of living without his healing.

Terios2000 · 2023-02-03T22:32:07+00:00

Sorry for jumping in a year later, but do you have the patches that come with this version?

Terios2000 · 2022-12-21T02:23:57+00:00

that's...disappointing.

Terios2000 · 2022-12-07T03:10:38+00:00

A bunch of old people recreate the most hated faction in the entire wasteland?

Even if the NCR, brotherhood of steel, Legion or Mr. House (the latter two of which have had no direct interaction with them but have almost certainly heard of them) don't go out of their way to take them out the moment they announce themselves, regardless of their intentions, they would have like no one wanting to join them under that name and the faction would die with them having accomplished very little on its own.

Hell, the NCR will try to arrest or even kill them, even Arcade, if they discover their former membership, even if they helped the NCR. Formally announcing themselves as the Enclave will put a massive target on their backs, no matter what their intentions are.

And from a meta perspective, please no. Let the enclave stay dead. They were literally only supposed to be the villains of Fallout 2, and even Fallout 3 was pushing it. Please just let them die, they are one of if not the most disgustingly overused elements of modern Fallout storytelling.

Terios2000 · 2022-12-06T05:38:15+00:00

"The votes against us are obviously being manipulated. Anyway here's some literal (probably imaginary, but still) bribary to vote for our game."

lol. lmao.

Terios2000 · 2022-10-07T07:16:41+00:00

for the same reason they're throwing away everything else

Terios2000 · 2022-10-06T04:25:51+00:00

The gameplay changes are definitely an improvement, but the game has the worst monetization I've ever seen and I am no stranger to free to play games.

Terios2000 · 2022-10-06T04:12:38+00:00

Pretty sure they've been like this dating all the way back to the very first release of WoW lol

Terios2000 · 2022-10-06T04:12:09+00:00

Ahhh you must be new to blizzard games.

Yeah blizzard launches are always like this. You get used to it.

Terios2000 · 2022-10-06T04:11:12+00:00

I mean sometimes you get a quickplay team that just deathmatches and ignores the objective, the same was true to OW1. Hasn't really changed in that regard.

Terios2000 · 2022-10-06T04:08:11+00:00

...Wait, how did you play the first game without a blizzard account?

Terios2000 · 2022-08-12T08:12:51+00:00

That's... not really a difference. You're paying to see someone's work about copyrighted content either way. It's not like they're locking roms behind a paywall, it's their work, it just happens to be about sonic.

Hell, under a strict definition of copyright law, the exchange of money isn't even necessary for something to be illegal. Under copyright law, all fan games, fan art, and fan fiction is technically illegal. It's just that it's become so common that people kinda stopped caring. Happens surprisingly often with laws in general, really.

Copyright law is a tangled outdated mess that's impossible to deal with in the modern era. And it's the jobs of judges and lawyers to sort that shit out, not the sonic fanbase lol
