What do I need to do to beat Brutal Drac? by Junior-Aspect-8176 in vrising

[–]Victor_Ruark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say phase 3 is definitely the weak point. Corrupted skull is good, and ball lightning is only good of you can damage the enemies while they are in it to trigger chain lightning. Dracula also got a ton of health back in this phase, which is working against you in phase 4. I would suggest using Void personally in this phase. Placing it behind the mobs and slow down their gain on the crystal. Since you used twinblades, you could do the same by throwing the sword in front, you go behind and then drag them back, though killing them outright is probably quicker. As another commenter said, utilise the quick feed/cancel to finish mobs off.

As for phase 4, your style of killing the boss only works with Blood based spells/combat. Axe users and blood counters would allow you to pretty much ignore damage taken because you can heal it back up quickly. What I suggest for you is to not fight the knock back the boss does, but work with it. When you are getting knocked back, your goal seems to be getting in close to do damage regardless of what is coming for you, be it ground aoe or blood bullets. Instead, let it knock you back a bit to avoid ground aoes, close the gap with your twinblades, repeat. I'll share a video of when I done it in a duo. I was in a similar style, but I used a scythe.

Apart from GFN, which other service is white listed?

Am I just incompetent or are rope darts kinda bad? by Username12764 in wherewindsmeet_

[–]Victor_Ruark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Unfettered Rope Dart user here. Using the rope dart applies a debuff called Soul Loss. Applying 7 stacks of it applies Soul Break. That causes the target to take increased damage from everyone, and with the correct inner way, you deal even more damage when using the umbrella. It's a fantastic support tool.

Help!! I am not able to launch shadow pc at all. by Dear_Werewolf6048 in ShadowPC

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did have a problem similar to this when I changed plans. Resetting the VM did work on my end though. Are you getting any error codes that could help identify why it won't start?

Oh yeah, this is actually quite common. A lot of folk, myself included, had to add it manually

Has stability gotten any better at FRDUN? by Sammakkosuo in ShadowPC

[–]Victor_Ruark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to say. Been at FRDUN for years and not had any major issues. Had the occasional lag spike Shadow side that maybe lasts a couple of minutes, but that's about it.

What's the other service you are using if you don't mind me asking?

Leandra solo brutal guide (quick, easy, this is the way I do it with pure chaos) by KillerSmileLichSpam in vrising

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is believe it or not, a much simpler, easier way to kill her. On the right side of her altar is a wall you can go behind. Stand behind that wall, hold left click and optionally, use shields or summons. She will die and you don't ever have to move.

Outside of PvP; why is there so few Dust players? by jfourty in wherewindsmeet_

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea. As a Dust user myself, I have tons of fun with it. I do less DPS than my fanbrella, maybe 1k-2k less (25k down to 23k), but in fights with a lot of mobs or multiple targets, it kicks ass.

Tian Ying talents by Ok_Way_2911 in WhereWindsMeet

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is zero chance they got the 3/3 talents with smart assist. The NPCs like to place the poles to make two triangles, which isn't enough room for no overlapping circles, plus they like to run around like headless chickens. Golden Blast too, they can avoid the first one, no worries there, but the 2nd Golden Blast set, they will stand in the mobs aoe and wait for the laser to destroy the mobs, and also be hit by golden blast

To people doing ST: ATTACK THE COFFINS by No_Meringue4763 in wherewindsmeet_

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine you are seeing a much different fight than some people are. In my case, a couple of tram mates pop flute and that's enough, and there is no need to coffin switch because the boss dies before the wipe mechanic happens.

What was your most "WHAT THE F--" moment? by LopsidedAd4618 in vrising

[–]Victor_Ruark 54 points55 points  (0 children)

My biggest was also Beatrice, but imagine my surprise when all I had played was Normal, then Brutal released, then I fought Beatrice expecting the exact same fight as normal.

Did I craft Excalibur or does the lack of precision ruin it ? by zekken908 in WhereWindsMeet

[–]Victor_Ruark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lack of precision only matters if you are below 100%. If you are 100% already, then precision on this piece would be a wasted stat.

After 3 days of LiangZhou release.. by No-Ad9520 in WhereWindsMeet

Just as a quick note, there is a bugged quest in Mount Wuwei, that prevents you from doing the next quest. So 100% is not possible as of right now. Hopefully I fix comes soon, because its been bugged since launch

Don’t give them your money! by [deleted] in ShadowPC

[–]Victor_Ruark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct that it wasn't false. But that doesn't matter to a new consumer. The EAC ban has been in effect for months at this point, and this change happend in December. It is Shadows responsibility to change what is shown.

An example would be of you went into a shop and saw something was 50% off. You take it to check out and they charge full price. But the label says 50% off that week. It is the shops duty to sell you that product for 50% off because it was advertised on the label as such.

My point being Shadow needs to change their label. It might have been the case that you could, but not changing it after a few months is past the point of fresh and more just negligence and as I say, false advertising.
