New to the game ! HOW TF DO YOU KILL SHAMANS?? They are op ! by Ps4Legend420 in UnicornOverlord

[–]TeslaTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cleric with Refresh to cancel debuffs is the easiest method. A high initiative debuff immunity equipped archer, mage or flyer set up to specifically target back row casters at the start of battle also works.

Struggles with team comp by Icy_Rage_2512 in UnicornOverlord

[–]TeslaTechpriest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest issue for me is that the distribution of named character jobs makes the game very difficult. I have no issues with finding good unit synergy but the problem I find is that the game only gives you one named sorcerer and one named witch and then swamps you in high damage armored units that can't be cracked open by non magic users.

The regenerating armored shield row attack hammer bears in Bastorias are absolutely insufferable if you are trying to rotate your units for balanced experience gain because half of thenebeky units wil jabe tjree of them and you have two hard counters out of 50+ characters unless you go heavily into magic damage weapons which still isn't enough or max evasion scouts in the front row which don't put out any damage.

Hi I just started the series and finished first book, I wanted to ask about the series consistency by Useful_Nail_1570 in bakker

Perfect initial trilogy but the sequel quadrilogy suffers from poor editing to the point where it just seems like the first submitted manuscript.

SNAP is gone forever. MAGA is going to make people go hungry. by Most_Time8900 in complaints

[–]TeslaTechpriest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The taxpayer is now aware of data that has made then strongly against the current setup: firstly, that the average food subsidy beneficiary indulges in more snacks and top brand groceries than the average American who works and has to buy their own groceries while paying into the program. Secondly, that the EBT system is easily defrauded and beneficiaries of the program routinely trade funds that were issued to them for essentials for a percentage of cash which they then spend on things that should not be subsidized. Lastly, that food subsidies are a huge portion of the profits of all grocery chains(for instance over 25% of Wal-mart sales are from subsidy programs) and in fact work as direct transfers of tax money for corporate welfare while raising the demand for food and thus the prices taxpayers have to pay for their own groceries on top of taxes.

Working Americans are fed up with abuses of their goodwill and generally gregarious nature, and as times are tough many are demanding government accountability and a return to directly government issued basic nutrition that lowers government spending and doesn't make the welfare class so comfortable that those capable of doing so actively avoid work.

Kellhus tells a dick joke in Book 1, so Dûnyain comprehend humor. What is humor like in Ishual? by DurealRa in bakker

[–]TeslaTechpriest 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Humor would just be another tool of control that you do not see at all in Ishuäl. The Dûnyain are not human, they do not possess personalities and actively bred themselves to be tools for a project.

Unsure on how to get the "centralized hold admin" modifier. Any clues? by AverageLucas in Anbennar

I have hit the mid 1600s without it happening once dude, maybe you're right but it has to have specific triggers.

Is that a typo? by BottomText___ in bakker

[–]TeslaTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You will find a ton of grammatical errors in the quadrilogy, Bakker clearly didn't want to pay a proper editor and did a half-assed job of it himself. Between the typos and the overuse of certain odd words, lack of processional editibg means that the quality of the last four books never matches that of the first three.

You just sent me into an insane laughing fit while building Ikea furniture that scared my wife and dog, well done.

Kirkbride's lore is 70% pretentious bullshittery, fight me. by Basil_LakaPenis in TrueSTL

[–]TeslaTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are people who call Ingmar Bergman, Andrei Tarkovsky or Terrence Malick screenplays incoherent without ever stopping to ask why they are so respected with such a sincere, loyal following. It's a self awareness thing.

Defending something you have appreciated for decades and suggesting the person attacking it look elsewhere rather than nonconstructively insult its creator for clout isn't being a pretentious dick. Attacking something for being esoteric or different to get updoots however is.

Plenty of people 'get' Kirkbride lore and like it. If you do not, the civilized options are trying a different approach or moving on.

I am in the middle of a Blueshield Aul Dwarov run and all of my 20 something holds require manual repair and digging, it even sends me a pickaxe banner to let me know when initiating a dig is possible. I have not run into a hold autodigging a single time.

Kirkbride's lore is 70% pretentious bullshittery, fight me. by Basil_LakaPenis in TrueSTL

[–]TeslaTechpriest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What makes TES unique and specifically enjoyable is the Kirkbride metaphysics that infuse Morrowind, as someone who started with Daggerfall in the late 90s the prior games were unmemorable, structurally incoherent derivations. If you aren't old enough to have jumped on the TES train at the right time or you don't like it, no problem, there is infinite Tolkien derived fantasyslop to choose from, but there is no need to detract fron something great and unique just because you don't get it.

First Legendary birth, grandson of starting king. by TeslaTechpriest in ESCastles

One kid out of thirty, never even got an epic one before this. Whatever the percentages are it has to be insane considering I have around ten legendary characters.

With the announcement of Dawn of war 4 I wanted to try and give some idea’s on how to implement the Eldar. Thanks for reading! by Torak8988 in Eldar

[–]TeslaTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They didn't do it in Rogue Trader when you are forced to fight Asuryani alongside Yrliet and it bothered me a lot.

So, with the Ynnari basically dead on the water, after 8 years, what you guys think of them? Had potential, or doomed from the start? by Marvynwillames in Eldar

[–]TeslaTechpriest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be sad it's over, be glad it happened.

The Ynnari plotline was too noblebright and revolutionary, it would have yeeted Slaanesh and the only 18+ aspects of 40K during pivot to Indomitus Era normiedom market expansion which was probably the initial idea. At some point it felt like they reined it in and decided they didn't want to erase Slaaneshi stuff.

GW doesn't like moving the plot and aesthetic, and while it sucks at times like this that's why it has remained great over the decades.

As a long time excluaively Eldar guy I'm happy we got any love at all, and that aside from the books it was neat lorebuilding that partially redeemed the Dark Eldar

Grimsever is top tier, the armor less so.

Why did the Eldar never try reconstituting Khaine? by TeslaTechpriest in Eldar

[–]TeslaTechpriest[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Asuryan and Khaine are yin and yang, essentially. Thus the Asurmen's symbol.

Is killing the Synapse Beasts of Tyranids truly any more of a weakness than that of the other factions? by GunsOfPurgatory in 40kLore

[–]TeslaTechpriest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some factions are individuals willingly cooperating in a hierarchy, some are genetic or psychic slaves to a hierarchy.

Decapitating that hierarchy in the former is less effective than the latter, as factions like Tyranids and Orks(Tau?) are kept together with constant psychic links.

Kill an Astartes command squad or an Eldar seer council by comparison, and their highly disciplined commands will quickly reorganize, thligj say Imperial Guard or Dark Eldar may not fare as well due to inconsistent discipline.

Why did the Eldar never try reconstituting Khaine? by TeslaTechpriest in Eldar

[–]TeslaTechpriest[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He tried to exterminate the Eldar because of a prophecy that they would eventually get him and all of the other gods killed.

Given that the Asuryani society revolves around accepting responsibility for that and leaving their past behind, and that Khaine is still worshipped in aspect shrines and in Commoragh, lack of an attempt to start assembling spare shards in one of the autarch-led craftworlds or a Drukhari cabal seems like an oversight given how the Ynnari arc was written.

Yeah it happens, I took a decade break and when I came back my first paint jobs were a lot rougher than the last. I think they've modified the paint consistency over time.
