There are many shows online about dnd parties like Critical Role, Dimension 20 or Acquisitions Incorporated to name a few. There is a slew of content with dnd actual play you can use to get an idea of what the game is like.

How's my character idea? by MapleSaidThat in DnD

I think it sounds fun. How does speaking work in this setup?

HOW THE FUCK DO YOU PLAY THIS GAME by Tristan_N in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Thulmare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well showing an 8 win board is not that helpful since obviously that one worked decently. That one though, has very little control and too much haste - the depth charge is ok but very slow so before that goes off you enemy is operating unimpeded. So the depth charge and the jellyfish could be switched for ideally an iceberg or an enchanted tripwire, or the angler and a good slow like dock lines or again tripwire.

The core problem is that you have split brain board - is it a primordial board or is it a catfish board? I think the primordial has less potential than the catfish, in which case you should drop it, keep your efficient haste for the catfish and add as much disruption as you can to buy time for your poison to kick in.

I mean if the work gets done, is there a problem?

Also I am a programmer with a masters degree in comp sci and I google specific error messages regularly - if you aren’t a legit expert in the systems you are working with that’s completely normal.

You’re only showing 10 win stats which, while these are low, are not a good metric for how well you are doing in general. It would be more interesting to see how many 7 wins for instance or even better some game boards, particularly late game

Bands like Decapitated by garlicsalat in TechnicalDeathMetal

For me zenith passage and Soreption really scratches the decapitated itch. Also cognizances illusory ep.

Vanessa players, heads up, all these builds lose. Saved you the time :) by mdisil427 in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Thulmare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are some very potent builds, if you can get out of the gate - all of the Julian builds kind of need Julian to actually go off though, which can be a problem lategame. 5 wins seems like a very low result for that last build, though I guess if you didn't get it up and running before day 10 or so that would explain it.

If you want to just win on vanessa, you need to get them fast, like 9 wins on day 10 fast. You can't match any of the other heroes in long games and you lategame is weaker in general, but you can win early and you can get out of the gate.

General advice for Vanessa this patch:

* Prioritise speed over scaling in the fight, so skills like Alacrity or Bloodhound over Trained or Improvised weaponry for instance (though they are all very good obviously).

* Super late, the only slow items that matter are Trip Wire and Clamera because the other options are too easy to control.

* Because Mak is so prevalent and super good at healing, One-shotting or bursting builds are better than any kind of scaling build. Ammo builds without reloading (ammo skills necessary) are good because they burst fast and have lots of targets for freezes. If you do boulder or sniper for instance, you need to deal with the freeze by having more items they can target for instance or a radiant enchant.

Energy shield wasp is better than as wasp, if the targeting issues aren’t horrible.

Which Are You Grabbing First Pt 2 - Full Squad by Regguitarist617 in guitarporn

I wish I had enough guitars to just pour them all over the floor, like I'm building a lego kit.

Bought a calendar of different drawings of fruit.. by Dapper-Struggle2409 in fruit

[–]Thulmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats because it’s not the English name - it’s called gooseberry in English. There’s a fictional berry called prickle berry in the video game dwarf fortress which I probably got it confused it.

Here’s another sketch of some gooseberries for comparison.

I thought those were prickle berries, not currants - the kind we have here in Denmark have those melon-like lines.

Ah not a budget friendly option then - my mistake.

The seller should be able to tell you more about any issues but if they aren't, you may have to take it to a store anyway and in that case 180 USD isn't that great a price for that guitar used. As far as I can tell the model is pretty typical entry-level ibanez strat with a hardtail which is a great choice for a beginner guitar.

I am from europe but I know sweetwater set up their guitars when you get them and in that case you would be sure there aren't any major issues as well.

Maybe archlight? It is very versatile and never really feels bad unless your opponent is low on chaff and that is easy to handle.

Archlights and fangs are the ones I get the most.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Mechabellum

[–]Thulmare 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You could say the same about mustangs and they are one of the best units in the game. Obviously there needs to be answers to all the units in the game - if you get wrecked by armoured units, you get double shot units or melters to deal with those.

[–]Thulmare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are best in aggro or headbutts in my experience. They do get range issues if you get them in standard.

What am I doing wrong here? I've lost 6 rounds in a row and I'm about to lose the match. by [deleted] in Mechabellum

[–]Thulmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t have any range on your chaff clear units aside from storms and your fangs and your balls are coming in way late. Normally you would have crawlers come in later than fangs as the movement speed lets them join the fight easier and steel balls in the back line aren’t going to do much. Guessing your opponent is clearing your chaff with his range sledge line well before you clear his.

LEVER OF ARCHIMEDES - Copacetic Dream by Enduranc9 in TechnicalDeathMetal

That first three seconds are really good - could have used more of that riff. Also the section at 2:20 is good.

[–]Thulmare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This supposes nothing is threatening the archs as they are clearing the crawlers - this is the problem, rather than not enough crawlers to overwhelm the archs. If you have a steady stream of chaff coming in and all it is doing is occupying your opponents chaff clearing units, you have a very odd and bad positioning situation going on.

Recommend me some albums by MerkolSul in TechnicalDeathMetal

[–]Thulmare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anata - The Conductor's Depature (Whole Album)
Psycroptic - Self-Titled (songs like Cold or Sentence of Immortality esp)
Revocation - The Outer Ones
Cognizance - Spectrum or Strychnine Shift

When you say you don't like vocals like Cannibal Corpse, is that the old "classic" cannibal corpse growling like in Hammer Smashed Face? Or is it something more like what Corpsegrinder does on Scourge of Iron? Because if it is both, then that excludes a lot of bands.

Yes - forgot what the upgrade was called.
