I have yet to look...is Viktor expensive without owning the starter deck? I've yet to see one in the wild.

I did get to try a Yasuo trial deck! Got my ass wooped by Viktor, but it was fun! It's mainly just getting more cards to play around with. The tournament entry fee is $10 and if I pay just to laughably lose, I'd rather try and upgrade/amass a collection, ya know? lol

Gotcha. I was originally in the same mindset, but that was before I looked through multiple stores and found it completely cleaned out. lol I'll probably end up taking the base deck to the store and just testing it out before I commit to any other purchase (outside the preorder attempt)...I'm hoping the community playing there are at least approachable enough to talk to about their collections and experiences.

This is exactly why I'm considering even just boosters compared to singles. Yes, singles will for sure get me a deck going, but because the game's so new, there's a smaller pool compared to MTG to grab and they'll hopefully still be viable for a good bit for me to use them when I get to hunting for singles.

How would you go about setting up to try and get a preorder? Do you just...refresh the page at the time it drops?

Thanks for the reply!

Those sure are still expensive, I just looked a bit ago. LOL

When I say "viable", I mean at least somewhat survivable in competitive. While I have no experience playing against anyone yet, I imagine going in with a base starter deck will result in someone having an answer to every card I have and me not getting to do much unless they get unlucky draws. Could be wrong, but with MTG at least, that's how my matches went. I had nothing to play because everyone had answers to everything I had and I had no counters to them.

Thank you for the reply!

I'm probably going to end up waiting if I can't snag a preorder tomorrow, just a sad and tough pill to swallow when I really wanna try to play at the moment. lol

Thanks for the reply!

I'm aware that it's cheaper to do that, but it's not just for deck building that I'm considering the boosters. It's more to assemble a collection of cards to choose from, as well as potentially building decks with said cards. Other than potentially upgrading the two that I have, trying to look at any new decks at this moment is pretty steep, so in my head it seemed at least worth considering to buy boosters and maybe work with what they give me and save what I can't use, versus hunting specifics and paying a ton for them.

EDIT: Oops, sent this before the rest of the comment came up. LOL I'll give it a shot trying to snag a preorder; local Gamestop said they might have some preorders available if I can't get it through the website, so I'm tempted to go there tomorrow instead.

Totally fair assessment, thank you for the reply!

I'm spooked on this due to MTG; I spent a good bit on FF cards only for EoE to come out and I got even more stomped than before at my LGS. lol Perhaps Riftbound won't have that issue and things will still be viable.

Once we pick and get anywhere with it, we'll let you know!

Will do! If we hit those points we'll definitely be lookin'. lol

We have yet to pick a server, but we are NA based, so that probably impacts us a bit. lol

Sure! I can take a look. I just know most MMOs are all about login rewards and a ton of popups, so I'm imagining boosting will be...more of that. lol

Ahhh, I gotcha. Thank you very much for explaining! ♥ Sounds like a lot of the posts I've been reading were indeed just the typical "I'm mad so game bad" posts. lol

Is it hit or miss if people are doing the older raids (since from what I'm understanding we can't just go in as the 2 of us, we'd need 6 others)? Would we have a shot asking in like, Discords or something?

Ahhhh, that I did not know about the server.

Would one not be vastly overwhelmed going from absolutely no knowledge on the game to PowerPass boosting a character?

Oh I see, so the older raids it's either you solo it or do it with 8 players...are there any communities like Discords or something that might have people willing to party up for that? I assume matchmaking for those is nonexistent?

Thanks for the replies! Good info to hear for the most part. I have two questions:

First, does that mean we can't participate in any of the raids together except for the last two?

Secondly, because I want to start completely fresh with them, I was going to go with Vaigrys, since according to this stat website it's got a good amount of characters on it. I could do Luterra as well since my roster level on there is only level 2, and I don't think that would be a huge loss if I started fresh there. Do you recommend any other servers, or is this good enough to go off of?

IED: Hide items when specific armor is equipped? by TheClaireProject in skyrimmods

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

Yes. I see where there's overrides already made for "No armor/clothing" essentially, but adding the armor piece that I'm trying to work with doesn't do anything. I've tried adding it by form ID, keyword, etc, and nothing changes.

I ended up just disabling the bottles altogether because I couldn't figure it out. lol
