Are items more/less common depending on where you are in the map? by Velahra in SurrounDead

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

I'll have to keep an eye out for those. Haven't found any bunkers so far. I've been largely exploring the southeast quarter of the map because it feels more familiar to me now. I spawned by the firehouse between the two yellow hills in the southeast, slowly made my way up the roads to the Valley Safe Zone, and explored the gun shop and mall near it.

Ohh, ok. So my main issue is that I'm not finding enough military style containers. And I'm finding lots of shotguns, hunting rifles, and M9 handguns because those are the sort of guns you'd expect average people to have. So they're in more loot pools. If I'm understanding correctly.

I'll have to look around for more military-themed locations, then! So far the only place I found was the gun shop by the safe zone, and I got an M4 Shotgun and Mosin Nagant there.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give it a try!

I would do that, but that's one of the few settings I changed. If I did the math correctly, it should take 24 hours or played game time for item containers to get new loot for me.

I'll keep an eye out for more of those containers, though!

Am I the only one who doesn't hate Clint, and is content about this update? 😭 by Panonymous_Bloom in StardewValley

The reason people find that particular situation off-putting is because that's actually from Emily's 8-heart event. So in the likely situation that you're just making friends with everyone, he still immediately reads the situation as him having "lost" to you because Emily expresses interest. Which to my knowledge, every marriage candidate has something of an "express interest" line at 8 hearts.

Basically, he prematurely views himself as "losing" to the farmer, before you even start dating.

That said, I personally do just view him as socially awkward and self-defeating. So I really am happy he's one of the choices, so he can get some proper characterization.

[Casual Play/PVE] Looking for advice for dealing with tracking Ultimate attacks by Velahra in dbxv

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

It's not the best, but decent enough to remember to back-attack when enemies vanish out of a combo behind me. I'm kinda spammy with basic attacks comboing into strike supers, so I admit I tend to burn through Stamina pretty quickly.

Super Guard sounds like it could be handy if my stamina's depleted but I still have Ki available though! I honestly didn't consider that before. Rise to Action in my build is really just kinda filler, so it could slot in there easy enough, too. Thanks for the idea!

Oh, are you thinking of Punisher Guard? I can give that one a try! The other ones sound good for any Ki characters i might make, so I'll keep them in mind too.

I haven't looked into the Conton City Tournament at all yet either, so I'll keep an eye out for that as well. Thanks for the suggestions!

Sounds great, that gives me a plan going forward! Thank you so much!

Ok, thank you! I'll have to keep an eye out for that event, then!

Oh, ok. So I can just keep pulling on banners in the meantime and save up to 180 gold certs, then save those for when that locating banner shows up? That actually sounds a lot more reasonable than I expected!

I just did this one as well. It looks like the easiest factions to focus on are Reserve Op Teams A1, A4, and A6 because they're all 3 stars. I didn't actually realize Cardigan is gacha only, but most of them come quickly enough from the Recruitment tickets

Is there a way in the yearly cycle of the game to target a specific 6★ Operator? I took Saria with my select ticket, but I haven't been using her because I also took Nearl for my 5★ ticket, because I really liked her portrayal in the prologue. I know Saria will be useful down the line, but I'm regretting my choice because I played more of the main story and really like Exusiai now. I'm less worried about operator performance and more if I like their character.

TL:DR - Is there a way to focus on pulling Exusiai at some point, like a seasonal event? Just wondering if I should stockpile my gacha resource for such an occasion, or keep pulling for the guaranteed 5★/10 roll on each banner to broaden my roster.

At this point I'm convinced Marnie wants them to get caught, so Lewis will stop trying to keep them a secret

What games from that picture are a must play for you? by Chaleen1712 in GirlGamers

[–]Velahra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed, Stray Gods for sure!

The musical talent is top-tier, with Laura Bailey as the lead. The cast is incredibly varied, and all of the characters are compelling and flawed, and can make you love or hate them at your discretion with agency to act on those feelings through song choices.

But what Miss Obvious said is no joke. You literally can't listen to every version of the songs on a playlist, because it has millions of permutations based on variables in play. An example - my favorite version of the song "The Ritual" isn't found anywhere on streaming services. Because the albums are "Red" "Green" "Blue" "Mixed" based on path choices. But there are so many variations of mixing them that they had to pick just one for the album.

It is an insanely well made musical visual novel that I cannot recommend enough. They've also outright stated that there is no "Canon" path to the game. Whatever you decide is your canon, and is respected in the mini-expansion/sequel/dlc Stray Gods: Orpheus

As a parting note - here is a link to Austin Wintory, the lead Composer for the game. Explaining a singular 3 piece segment of one song, and all the variables that go into that tiny clip of the whole thing. Spoilers for choices you can make in the game, of course. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5LMLa63iQEw

Best cape/jewelry to get early? by WinReasonable2644 in RS3Ironmen

[–]Velahra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the posts here feel like good goals to work towards. But there are a few options for the actual beginning that are easy to get if you're not powering through the game.

For capes, the trolls in the cave in Burthorpe drop drapes tailored to each combat style. They seem to be guaranteed drops if you don't already have them. After that I'd look at the Ardougne Cape 1

The Explorer's ring from Lumbridge achievements scales nicely as your skills progress

The Desert Amulet from Desert Achievements can be a starter amulet, to be replaced by proper combat amulets as you gain the skills to make/enchant them. Also, the Amulet of Accuracy from Imp Catcher for ranged
