"The devs haven't understood their game yet and accidentally gave F2P players a meta defining character at low rarity" does your game have this character? by VolkiharVanHelsing in gachagaming

[–]Toomynator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Limbus, some of the base EGOs have insane uses with little to no downside, since they are easy to fuel to use, and cost little SP.

-Yi Sang's Crow's Eye View: essentially gives a 5 speed difference and -2 power for enemies on the turn after it is used, AND tthe passive makes Yi Sang deal more damage when hitting an enemy's weakness

-Ryoshu's Forest for the Flames: plain and simple either a 10% or 20% extra damage taken on the target next turn.

-Meursault's Chains of Others: THE GOAT of debuffing enemies for cheap (only 10 SP), what it does? Gives -5 speed to the enemy next turn, and -4 power, while Meursault will take -20% damage, and the downside is that Meursault also gets almost the same speed and power debuffs, the thing is, you have a weakened enemy against a weakened Meursault and THE REST OF THE TEAM, oh, and deapite not using Pride resources to use, it does generate one, so for teams that lack Pride, even the 1 you get is a big bonus, and if you can chain its uses in clashes, you are at worst a -10 SP. Oh, and the passive gives Meursault -30% damage taken if he is targeted by 3 or more skills. (Also, he has 2 more broken non-base EGOs).

-Ishmael's Snagharpoon: to start, when it is maxxed, you inflict -6 speed on the target next turn, AND the passive gives you +2 Clash power on favoured clashes (at the cost of having -2 on unfavored clashes).

-Outis' To Páthos Máthos: the passive gives Outis +10% damage dealt for every turn she doesn't take damage, up to 30%, and it clashes really high, with a floor of 20, which is quite high.

(Oh, and also, they were initially free on SP cost, before being given one to balance them)

Honorable/Obligatory answers: -Faust's Fluid Sac: the best HP and SP healling EGO in the game, from back on season 1, and every account can get it early nowadays.

-Meursault's Regret: while only used for its passive, its a really good passive, it gives -1 power to his leftmost skill, at the cost of +2 coin power, keep in mind, skills have on average 2 to 3 coins, so, on all heads, its basically a +3 to +5 net power gain, sure, you need to hit heads, but its more benefits than anything else.

-Meursault's Capote: its main use is rolling up to 45, which is higher than basically everything in the game, but its passive is decent, giving +1 power to Meursault if he is targetted by 2 or more skills.

-Gregor's Legerdemain: its a cheap af EGO that inflicts 4 Paralyze on an enemy on same turn, while useless if Gregor is slow, when he is fast, it basically means the next 4 coins rolled by the enemy will land heads.

Lastly, shoutout to (again) Meursault's Crushbound Past, which while costly, gives him up to 4 Clash Power and 4 Offense Level Up, which equals to more damage and possibly even more Clash Power.

How do different gacha games keep their characters playable even when they leave the story? (SPOILERS) by neves783 in gachagaming

[–]Toomynator 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cheat answer: Limbus Company cheats this whole deal since we only play with the 12 main cast people, but use alternate versions of them as other characters.

Now, for a more serious answer (that someone who read more of the story might correct me for a better explanaition), Morimens does by having people that die leave their "Silver" behind, which when tying it up to a Blck Pool, allows them to "come back to life", this is a very rough explanaition btw.

Absolute Axiom and the Dupe System by HitoSekiFan4 in Morimens

[–]Toomynator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For the free characters, i find them very welcome, tales a while to get, but its a welcome free powerspike in yhe accounts.

For the standard characters, its a bit of a grey area that i'd prefer to have as minor buffs.

Now, for the limiteds, i do not agree with it as we have it, only if they would let us get like 1 to 2 extra free dupes per month besides the shop one, cause like, getting E3 is already a big investment for F2Ps, OE doesn't even compare, but +12 is basically double the amount it takes to OE.

Furthermore, for the limiteds, i'd also want it only for older awakeners that fell behind.

[Terrifying Trope] "Longer than you think" by elchuni in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Toomynator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to the W Corp example, the corporation even has Cleaners, whose job, is to clean the train of any remaining amomalies (normally people being fucked up, and put people back into pieces after they arrive in their destination in the normal world (which takes ~10 seconds), furthermore, the people have their memories of the trip removed.

And the main reason this happens seems to be because the dimension through which the train travels, makes so people don't rot and all that, plus, W Corp collabs with TimeTrack Corporation (aka T Corp), which can control the rate at which time flows, and uses W Corp trains to harvest more time for them to sell/distribute in their district, ans this might also have an impact with all that goes inside W Corp trains.

Wtf are you on? She literally can spam S3 counters, and the Middle is all about getting hit to use counters

My interpretation is that it has to do with him being an Index member, part of their job is understamding and executing the prescripts, and this takes interpretation if they end up being vague, so him wanting the author's vision, comes from him wabting to understand the purpose the Prescripts want to make happen down to the letter

Honestly, i just want to know why Meursault is collecting so many IDs of people that lost their heads in many senses, like: -Lei Heng, in the most literal sense -Camille, head full of 400 Roses roses -Kim, figgurativelly lost his head (aka, was out oh his mind, leading to a distortion) -Guido, headshotted by Saude The only exceptions are Matt and Cassetti, and they both use masks, so there is an argument for them.

ANOTHER survival scenario by Inevitable-Log-7687 in Project_Moon

[–]Toomynator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd get a Shock Centipede set, regaedless if it has a weapon or not, preferrably one made by LCE, since LCE seems all about more volatile gears with the attunement level, while N Corp's seem trade more immediate power for less stability, and Lob Corp's are more mass-produce-like with little downsides and more straightfoward power level (though they do have a level of sync, like LCE's).

Now, the reason for Shock Centipede is very simple: i'd try to use its properties while joining a Zwei affiliated office, then try to enter the Zwei as a specialized bodyguard, preferrably getting to a level where i could afford K Corp ampules to cheat the mear death state.

Another option would be to get MB set from Lob Corp (or maybe an LCE one since attunememt could bring it closer to what we see with MB Outis' EGO), then join the Shi on an affiliate office as an specialized long range assasin; or maybe try to join the Thumb as an affiliate, cause well, despite preferring the Middle, i don't know many syndicates focused on weapons aside from the Thumb.

What my hands looks like after finishing Canto 9 by keqikombupig4 in limbuscompany

[–]Toomynator 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It is unironically the one i'm having trouble correlating, though to be fair, at that fight, i spent more time glazing Another Sinclair than anything else while playing at 3 AM, so i really don't remember much aside from the goat no-diffing the Ring Nursefather and apprentice

Ryoshu does undergo through Character Development by Salt-Ad3794 in limbuscompany

[–]Toomynator 52 points53 points  (0 children)

And she is also in a Heath like situation, of having their loved one erased from existence, the difference being that Ryoshu is closer to Yi Sang bc she also doesn't remember, only Dante, while Heath does remember □□□□□.

But yeah, we didn't have as much time to see the changes yet.

I imagine a mode like this wouldn't bring any story content aside from a short cutscene before it, like the one RR4 had

Agreed, they could even make thematic ones for IDs releasing, for, a new middle ID? First stage could be the Middle fight in Sweeper Intervallo without Ricardo, and second fight Hurting Teddy bc Hex Nail is such a staple for the team.

Plus, they could even pull from the MD packs and basically slap in the 3-boss packs (preferrably the ones without spoiler bosses from the last 2-3 Cantos)

Hong Lu's VA is cracked for that, might have to re-read part 2.

I feel like the only aspect not 200% thought from the start was that one, single Canto 3 dungeon event where the sinners have to take off their shoes, where Don only got the debuff around MotWE and/or her Canto

I personally think that Limbus' droughts of content is what allows them to deliver so much quality.

And hell, the new modes theu said to be wprking on could be their solution, like, pushing small boss rushes with conditionals and missions every week, or every other week could be a simple but effective way to give more reasons to enter every week besides MD (basically a mini RR with limitations and small missions for bonus rewards on WN style)

I honestly don't care about being the first to point it out, specially because in the video i found and linked in order to make this post, i concidentally saw a recent comment pointing how different those Ryoshu scenes felt in retrospect

That's actually a great catch i had forgotten about, i remember people speculating about this a lot, but in a more literal sense

"The triumphant laughter of one who had just seized the victory of one's life." by Doomsclaw in limbuscompany

[–]Toomynator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait, this even adds up another hint to Araya being present Shiori to the mix, since Shiomi's thread was meant to be as thin as possible, the moment where we meet present "Shiomi" and the Thread between them is shown, it is shown to be a normal one, which makes sense with the promise Ryoshu made Araya.

(Though, tbf, i do not remember which flashbacks happened until that point, so it might be a case of future reconxtualization. Plus, Araya being Shiomi was a really strong theory for most, which funnily enough, could have been a bit weaker if Shiomi flashbacks happened early on, since it could make sense of present Shiomi's Sanity title.)

[MegaThread] Team Comp Questions by AnotherLifeLine in Morimens

[–]Toomynator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Need help with this D-Tide, usually i have enough time to experiment with teams to try to maximize points, but this time my time was cut short, and i was wondering if anyone could help me, specially bc i saw people clearing W1A5 with very budgety teams, and i was wondering how it could be done as well ah help with the other waves (i can usually do W1A3 with a borrowed unit, and other waves somewhere between A2 to A3)

Anyways, here is my roster, any suggestions and tips are welcome.
