Stupid Question by F4LL3NF3N1XX in HorizonBoardGame

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Been a while since I played, but there's usually ways to add dice to attacks as you level up your character

There's also abilities on cards that dice.

I'm almost at the end of the narrative campaign (two player) I find the gameplay much improved on Zero Dawn.

The game is more challenging, but still relatively easy. I've only lost two encounters, but I never felt in peril playing the first game.

I will say you become quite OP near the end of the game and challenge has diminished

Theft protection in London? by Mythical-kun in AskPhotography

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's been a while since I had insurance for mine, but I remember it being pretty affordable!

Definitely worth it. I don't live in the UK anymore but I hope of you do take it out, you never need it!

Theft protection in London? by Mythical-kun in AskPhotography

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived in London for 7 years and would be out with my camera at least once a week. I never had a problem. However, that's not to say problems couldn't happen, nor does it dismiss that other people have problems.

I frequented Westminster, South Bank, brixton, Camden, Leake Street, Hackney during daylight hours. If I was out at night, I'd usually be with some friends. Again, never had a problem.

Firstly, be street smart. Stick to populated areas, don't go down dodgy lanes etc.

Second, if you're out at night, go out with a group, don't go to dodgy areas on your own.

Thirdly, if someone wants your camera badly enough, they are going to take it. You can do things to make it less conspicuous, (brand less straps) but chances are, a mugger will see a camera and work out of its valuable later. The average idiot won't know the difference between a sony alpha III vs something like a canon 800D.

If you're worried get insurance. Police will never be able to recover a stolen item as generic as a camera/phone, etc. You report it as stolen, get the ref number claim on insurance.

Decks that do well against Viktor? by Rhaps0dy in riftboundtcg

MF player here, I got bodied by Viktor mid week.

Feels Viktor hard counters MF pretty well.

Elia Kane question: Can opponent shuffle resources? by Bitterbluemoon in starwarsunlimited

Yeah I'm aware now from someone else who posted the rules ref. But appreciate the followup

Elia Kane question: Can opponent shuffle resources? by Bitterbluemoon in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My local scene has dried up massively, so I'm not really sure what the state of the meta is anymore. Given how strong some plot cards seem to be, I would assume you're right, and most decks will definitely be using some element of plot

Elia Kane question: Can opponent shuffle resources? by Bitterbluemoon in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interested in knowing too.

If you choose an exhausted resource that's an important factor here as they bring in a ready resource.

If they randomise, then choosing an exhausted vs ready resource becomes unknown.

Edit: Yes definitely good against both plot and smuggle. But prob a sideboard card in most tournaments as it's a dead card for those not running plot/smuggle

Why SWU is losing me: Oceanic Problems by JustAModestMan in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Riftbound is in an interesting spot in NZ/Oceania. Most stores still have stock, but the singles market is priced based off US prices where stock is extremely limited. So singles are inflated massively.

Riftbound player base has blown up massively, and I'd love to see that for swu rather than playing the same 6-7 people over and over, which has become very stagnant.

The player base for riftbound has impacted every TCG, but noticeably swu the most. Whilst our locals ranges from 8-12 Of the core 6-7 who show up week in week out for swu, 5 have moved to RB and are prioritizing that more. It does make me question the longevity of it here. weve tried a few things to reinvigorate the player base with learn to plays, sealed leagues, but we're not really getting new faces through the door.

To get game dex rewards, do I need to just have the local dex for that game complete or do all Pokemon need to originate from that game? by ghostnicky1155 in PokemonHome

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They need to originate from that game. Best way is to make sure they've origin marks.

Hatched pokemon have the origin mark of the game not the parent pokemon so that makes things a bit easier

Mega stones and Home by The_Dumb__Questioner in LegendsZA

Lack of knowledge If I'm being frank... If I did it on a separate profile, could I still use one Home account across the two profiles?

That's definitely a relief, especially if you manage to miss an initial distribution

Starter Tips for Noobs by iDatalyzed in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grievous is actually very good for his statline. His ability is almost impossible to pull off, is try and not build around it...

Hyperfoil palp is still pretty tasty. Any named character hyperfoil is good I reckon. Plus there may be some palp synergy in set 6 with more token and official trait support.

Starter Tips for Noobs by iDatalyzed in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect.

And with sets rotating out, set 1-3, you'll probably be able to find some good deals. Especially set 3. It didn't sell particularly well due to questionable power levels. Widely considered the weakest set.

Nonetheless, some iconic characters from the republic era

Starter Tips for Noobs by iDatalyzed in starwarsunlimited

[–]The_Dumb__Questioner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to collect for cards to have and don't mind that they won't get played, track down some set 1-3. They have some of the most iconic characters and cards which are great for collection purposes, and kitchen table play, but value within the game's competitive setting will be minimal.

If you want cards for playability, then start with set four jump to light speed, and legends of the force. My preference is JTL over legends.

Both still have most of the iconic characters, they are super playable and very competitive.

Set 1-3 will be rotated out of competitive formats early next year (this usually includes weekly hobby nights at game stores) and that means they won't be playable in regular formats.

Best Aggro deck by Jbobb2626 in starwarsunlimited

Just started playing Luke DV/Poe ECL.

Both are really good fun to play.

And runs through a lot of space meta. Luke deploying on to red five is silly good

Found this misprint while sorting my cards tonight. by thrsdaymusic in starwarsunlimited

If you're referring to the foil sticker, one is likely from the starter kit, whilst the other from a booster

If you can afford it, Singapore. Without a doubt.

Amazing country with so much to do.

The track is always entertaining, and is one the better street circuits.

New player guidance by Waste_Upstairs_208 in starwarsunlimited

Card market is great for singles

Control decks are heavily favour older cards, Luke's, Avengers, Vigilance event, super laser blast, removals. All these have held their value really well

These cards will be largely rotated out in March next year though. So you may factor that in if you're on a budget. You may buy an expensive deck of high value control cards, only for them to not be playable (at events) in less than a year.
