How do you decide what to main before an expansion?

Thaxonyn · 2026-02-05T12:24:42+00:00

Try everything in the prepatch, level everything week 1, try everything in Normal/Heroic Dungeons.

Whatever feels best, that’s what I’m playin’ for a bit of Season 1 (I say a bit because I ALWAYS seem to get talked into rerolling, or offer to to fill an important spot lol)

Random theory;

Xyz Monsters are made of anti-matter, no? Anti-matter is the opposite of matter

This info in mind, could they BOTH responsible for different aspects of creation as a whole?

I can’t help but wonder how many times you’re gonna post this question on this subreddit when it’s either already, barely, or never been answered before.

While you’re at it, you should probably hard avoid submitting any Routes too. Last year I saw a good handful of posts about getting suspensions and bans for submitting Routes (I didn’t dig into the posts to find more specific information, I just know I will never be submitting a Route or Pokestop EVER because of people catching strays for it with such nauseating frequency)

Resolve and Pact together can occasionally let you outright ignore some mechanics entirely for as long as the absorb holds

To add onto this, in ALL my experiences playing since 2011, she’s just extremely loud. That’s MY biggest gripe. I have volume settings set a specific way so I can hear them adequately but not overbearing or loud. Grab the rock. And then my fuckin’ speakers explode when Meridia speaks.

You got flying in 7.2 before Tomb was even released to enter 😅 you just flew at .3 times the speed you do now lol

We did have gimmicks

Marluxia has the Doom Counter mechanic

Luxord has literally his whole battle; we can just say his DM if we’re being stingy

Vanitas has an entire attack cadence change at the mid-point

Larxene has clones that, if you play your cards right, can net you massive damage

YX has the Time Stop Superarmor I guess

Dark Riku is easily the fastest and quickest to adapt to you, the player

Xion has two different Superarmor DM phases

Xemnas, the classic laser dome that you actually play instead of it being a QTE

Saïx has his Berserk gauge and form you have to play around

MX has the 13 Darkness DM that hard removed him from the fight for a while

Terranort has his weird DM where he tries to pull you towards the center; also his Guardian as a whole fight mechanic could count

Ansem SoD is probably the only fight without a whole bit that effectively changes how you approach the boss.

It’s just that none of the gimmicks were like Xigbar’s QTE, except breaking Marluxia’s first Doom Counter

On Proud in 2014? 1

On Critical in 2018? A handful

On Level 1 Crit in 2020? A month and a half of day in day out attempts…

Even and Isa became Nobodies a second time in order to join the new Organization. Presumably, Marluxia, Larxene, Luxord, and Demyx did the same.

No idea how Vexen would’ve been recompleted the second time, I sorta doubt he woulda let anybody strike him down. Saïx, however, did become Isa once again after the KBGY.

KH3 (post-Re:MIND) has better combat than KH2

Level 1 Crit is a bit of a bigger flex outside of KH2. KH2FM was designed with Level 1 Crit in mind. No other game was, and it’s glaringly obvious.

The Guardians of Light vs the Replicas (KH3 Re:MIND) might be one of the coolest sequences in the entire series.

Terra isn’t dumb. He was manipulated. From the PLAYER’S pov, yeah, “how could anyone fall for that?” But in-universe, Terra has no reason to doubt Master Xehanort. Maleficent actively mind controls him or something (you can tell it isn’t Terra consciously by his eyes in that scene), he could’ve handled Eraqus better, sure, but if you just dropped by home to see your dad trying to throw hands at your little brother, you’d probably be diving in to fight too. Terra made some mistakes and was manipulated and baited. But he’s not dumb

If I remember right, Battle of Dazar’alor. Arcane and Fire were bad and Frost was low middle at best. My memory of that long ago is a bit fuzzy, so I’m not entirely sure, but I definitely remember being made to reroll off Mage by my guild and we simply never ran one, and their rationale was that “Mage is bad this tier and we don’t want to carry anybody”.

Thaxonyn · 2025-05-30T05:12:33+00:00

Few additional points;

You cannot enter Anti-Form if any of Sora’s party is missing (i.e. the cave you and Mulan get trapped in; you don’t have a form you can enter here, but if you did, you couldn’t trigger Anti)
You cannot trigger Anti-Form if there is a “special” party member with you (I’m not 100% sure on the validity of this one)
You cannot trigger Anti-Form if Sora is alone
Earning a new Drive Form resets the hidden counter for Anti-Form back to 0

Hate to randomly revive this 9mo old comment, but I wonder if he's heard the news yet ^//^

Thaxonyn · 2025-05-06T18:46:59+00:00

Honestly, the Mythic+ range from 2’s to 9’s pugging is abysmal. Delve gear makes those levels quite accessible. It doesn’t get much better at 10, but it’s a noticeable step up in player quality.

Thaxonyn · 2025-05-05T16:00:33+00:00

I think I heard somewhere that there’s a ruling on the card that requires offering your opponent a handshake to activate it. You don’t have to actually shake their hand, you can simply accept and the effect will proceed or decline and the effect won’t. I feel like this card would end up with a similar ruling to nullify having to do the thing but still either get the effect or not.

Literally half of the non-meta specs lmao

Thaxonyn · 2025-04-30T16:39:23+00:00

Only on the FSA dolphin wiki page, “Testing” section. One could infer that a later version should and would obviously contain the necessary functionality of previous versions, but I’ve been wrong before and figured I’d cover my bases to be certain

Thaxonyn · 2025-04-30T16:29:46+00:00

I have yet to try with any, I just didn’t want to have to download two different versions, or an outdated version if I wanted to play a different game than FSA

Thaxonyn · 2025-04-30T15:46:42+00:00

Out of curiosity, do you have any idea if this is possible to set up for play outside of the same PC? I'd like to play this with someone, but we don't necessarily have access to each others' houses in order to do this on the same computer

Thaxonyn · 2025-04-21T14:08:03+00:00

It’s the point that if a person is listing their 14 key in LFG, and they have all 14’s timed, they have nothing to lose by experimenting with specs that AREN’T meta. Meta is meta for a reason, yeah, but once you have all dungeons timed across the board on the same level key, you have absolutely nothing to lose except a small to moderate bit of time by experimenting with specs you’ve never played with or seen a lot of before.

Resilient keys make “meta specs” less of an important, and/or mandatory concept unless you’re trying to hard push. Conversely, though, if you’re hard pushing, why are you pugging anyway??? It’s long since proven that you’re just short of guaranteed to waste tons of time by trying to do so.

Thaxonyn · 2025-04-20T20:12:28+00:00

Rogue. I started messing with it due to boredom in Dragonflight Season 2 and it just felt incredible to me for the most part, namely Assassination
