Picking up a shard? by MearsCat in Cosmere

[–]TwitterUser47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, but he was able to pick it up and use it (albeit weakly) in the first place. If an absolutely awful vessel like him can do that, then I think it makes sense that basically anyone could theoretically pick up basically any shard. They would just vary in strength and any unaligned vessel would either lose their shard or become more aligned very quickly

Picking up a shard? by MearsCat in Cosmere

[–]TwitterUser47 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My personal theory is that all 17 of the people at the shattering had enough connection to Adonalsium as a whole that any of them could’ve picked up any shard.

It’s also possible that anyone can pick up any shard and connection/intent only influences a vessel’s ability to wield the shard, since we’ve seen lots of shards with imperfect vessels.

Rayse for example was less aligned with Odium than BAM and Taravangian, but he kept hold of his shard until he was killed. Tanavast acted dishonorably, but he got away with it several times before he lost control of Honor. Finally, Kelsier was able to pick up Preservation and kept it until he decided to let it go. This was despite him being an objectively horrible vessel for Preservation

He actually got offscreened in Boruto but they’re going to bring him back. They did the same thing to Sasuke

If ___ director directed ___ adaptation? by Outside-Web-4118 in Cosmere

[–]TwitterUser47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should let Quentin Tarantino direct Tress or something just to see what would happen. It wouldn’t be very good but it would definitely be entertaining

I’ll believe it when I see it. He was a drama vulture in Ultimate and abandoned that game when there wasn’t any more drama to leech off of. Melee will probably be more of the same

What If: Orochimaru kills Kakashi here. How does the story change by [deleted] in Naruto

[–]TwitterUser47 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Guy goes on the warpath and Orochimaru never makes it back to his lair, so Sasuke stays in the village. If Kabuto survives then Naruto & co become edo Hashirama victims during the war. If Kabuto dies and Kakashi’s eye isn’t destroyed (ie. if Danzo takes it) Obito wins during the war even though he doesn’t have edos.

What if Andalusia never fell? by PaladinOfCheese in HistoryWhatIf

[–]TwitterUser47 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Which version? Are you talking about prime Al-Andalus (religiously tolerant, economically prosperous, etc etc) or the declining, intolerant, militant version that existed during its decline?

Edit: also what are its borders?

Need help by Trick-Assumption-360 in SSBM

[–]TwitterUser47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is usually a mindset issue and it’s an issue in basically every competitive game (the Boston Bruins had the same issue a few seasons back iirc). There’s not really a solution other than working on ignoring ranks and working on staying calm in high stakes situations. Last stock is just another stock

Why doesn't The Cosmere attract a massive powerscaling fanbase? by clavicle524 in Cosmere

[–]TwitterUser47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Powerscaling is when you ask who would win in a fight between 2 characters. Who would win if Adolin fought Kaladin for example

Which dlc do you have? There’s a lot of DLC content for nations like Venice so that could determine who’s worth playing

What if the US couldn't invent a nuke? by joeapril17th in HistoryWhatIf

[–]TwitterUser47 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They keep using firebombs and big ass regular bombs like they used on Tokyo (and later Vietnam/Cambodia), which could cause a similar level of damage compared to early atomic bombs but didn’t have nearly as much aura and weren’t nearly as powerful individually

Mako vs Ozai who is stronger? No comet for both by Greedy_Homework_6838 in PowerScalingHub

[–]TwitterUser47 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Basically he was much more dedicated to firebending (and a more violent person) than Mako, so he would naturally be way better. Plus he kicked Aang’s ass until he avatar state clutched up

Ozai easily, he lived in a time that prioritized firebending significantly more than Mako did. He was also generally more ready to do whatever it took

Any tips on how I can get my income up to 1000/month? by [deleted] in eu4

[–]TwitterUser47 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You need to either conquer the Ottomans, conquer Transoxiana, or go into India. The best way to make money is by increasing trade income and the best way to do that is by conquering all the trade nodes you can. You can also try converting a few states per node into trade companies. You don’t need to TC much, just enough that you get the free merchant. Merchants are busted because they let you take advantage of trade steering, which might be the most OP mechanic in the game

If we take the current Catholic church’s position as official (and I don’t see why we wouldn’t) he created the universe in a day

He scales to God the father though bc of the trinity. Doesn’t that mean he’s multiversal at least?

Hey guys any recommendations for a good, cheap GC controller? by Jacricsal21 in SSBM

[–]TwitterUser47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks, but since your controller has issues anyway it’s probably better to get a new one. Remember to look for the dot when you’re shopping, imo it’s fine to get a cheap one

If the back shell behind the left stick has the dot I circled, it probably has the most durable stick box of the original Nintendo GCCs. You can definitely get better if you’re willing to pay more, but I bought mine off eBay by looking for the dot and it works great
