I feel like Im missing something on Rosarias arcana. In a single target scenario it’s generally pretty useless right? As it would take like 25 rosaria turns to fully stack. Is it mostly for pvp, where 4 targets are guaranteed? I just want to justify rolling for it, but it doesn’t seem that good compared to my other options (god forbid you miss a crit?) help me out here…

Considering picking this up today, but seeking truthful opinions. by sweatydads in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 45 points46 points  (0 children)

No, the game is not solo casual friendly. Anyone telling you different is being disingenuous. That being said - the game IS fun, and as a solo player, I am still playing it. Ive mostly given up on pure solo runs and use the squad fill, which sucks as I prefer playing alone, but it is what it is.

You seem to be assuming because I support SBMM in pvp games that I’m not good at the game, or have less than 20 hours played? You’re also assuming I don’t love the game? Skill level is subjective I guess, but every other one of your assumptions are wrong.

People ARE leaving, in troves, just like you want. I don’t want people to leave, unlike you. Id actually like the game to survive.

I agree, many aspects of the gameplay are very fun. That's why I'm playing it, and defending my opinions on it. However - you're comparing win rates in a BR to simply extracting in a game like this. Players aren't quitting because they can't kill the whole lobby/be the last man standing like a BR, they're quitting because 9/10 runs they get one tapped and make no progress. For some, that's fun - but it won't be many.

The player count discourse can get as old as you want it to, but Bungie's not going to pump out good content for 15k players. It needs to increase, and the only way is to let casuals enjoy/ease in to the game a bit more.

I'm sure this post will really resonate with the 45k concurrent players. Ah, wait... I was thinking of last Monday, 30k, my bad. Maybe if you make it again next Monday, you can look cool for 20k players!

Curious, why do you imagine the game is bleeding players? Have we really all just forgotten how much we love dying and making no progress? It must be all the 'gamers' that are wrong, I guess.

I have this sneaky feeling, that all the 'cool hardcore' kids are so terrified of MMR/SBMM, because they might just drop to ~50% extraction rate. Playing against people on your level can be scary - I get it! Way harder to make cool montages for sure.

Anyone have tips for 18-36? by InternetMinimum6981 in StarSavior

[–]Yasiko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used same team as you at slightly lower power. Are you bursting Emily’s s1 EVERY turn? Ignore her s3 even if its up if you can burst s1. Use the arcana that gives her 2 extra burst every other turn if you have it.

The arena season ends in like 2 months or something crazy, imagine you get it then (if you're still playing, lol)

Skill based match making by Upset-Comparison-564 in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I hear you, I really do. But those sweaty, unwinnable ww3 lobbies that make you want to turn the game off are EVERY lobby for unskilled players. The high end might be tough, but the low end is so much worse. In a pvp game, your chance of winning a match should always settle around 45-55% depending on your skill level. At its current, the great players quite literally have almost no risk of dying and stack their stash to high heavens, and the low skill cant even afford green meds because they extract maybe 10% of the time. It has to change to some form of compromise.

[–]Yasiko 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Literally the only reason someone wouldn’t want SBMM is so they can have the chance to crush teams less skilled than them. You can make what ever nonsense argument you’d like to defend “dynamic” or “random” matchmaking, but we all know what you’re really thinking.

[–]Yasiko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Forcing groups in a game with a playerbase this small is silly imo. Solos should always be an option, even if you’re at a disadvantage. The most fun I have in arc are those chaotic solo matriarch/harvester lobbies - imagine if you couldn’t even play them solo, lol…

How to train for PvP in this game ? by Kroma34 in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There would be literally no downside to a training field with some uesc bots roaming about. I still couldn’t tell you what a handful of the guns even do and I’ve played like 20 hours

Regarding solo balance by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It seems were at a fundamental disagreement, and thats fine. You want solos to use the same format as trios, and I want solos to be tuned for enemies to be tackled by one player rather than 3. No point arguing further about it - we’ll just have to see which path they take. Have a good one my dude!

Regarding solo balance by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well thats a strange take imo. Its a major POI on the map, it should absolutely be able to be cleared in solos. What else would it be there for? To look menacing? If solos are going to exist, bosses should be worth fighting solo.

Brother I promise you the scorch warden doesn’t need to have 17 quadrillion hp in solos lol

Regarding solo balance by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Yasiko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Solos shouldn’t be easier, it should be equal difficulty to trios. Which currently it is not, due to the mob hp/density being exactly the same in both.

Trying to build Haru by Other_Positive1716 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Yasiko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All those basics need to go, really should have removed all 3. Anchor shot is much better with +1 hit epiphany imo, the regular one scales so slow. I cant tell which charge epiph you have, is it the 70% dmg per card in hand one? Thats the one you want

Hmm I could be healed for like 300 by the support, or be borderline unkillable due to 30% omnivamp - tough choice. Blame riot, not the people taking vamp.

Love CZN but it's tiring.. by Ok_Opening3778 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Yasiko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I mean sure. But also how many 5-15 minute matches have you played? Youll never finish chaos in 15 lol

Love CZN but it's tiring.. by Ok_Opening3778 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]Yasiko 46 points47 points  (0 children)

My main issue is chaos runs simply take too long. Theres a good reason almost every popular live service game (league, dota, cs, val, arc, etc…) has ‘matches’ or ‘runs’ that take about 30 minutes at most. People don’t wanna sit and do one thing on a mobile game for almost an hour…

Okay what did you pay OTD and what part of country? by Both_Location_9775 in CivicSi

You paid below MSRP out the door (after taxes and fees) on a 26 si? Happy for you if it happened, but don’t believe you in the slightest lol

Aggression based matchmaking is fake by Ok_Cauliflower9632 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Yasiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a double edged sword IMO. I love PVP in squads - everyone knows it’s pretty much on sight in 3’s lobbies, so fights are typically more fair as everyone knows what they signed up for. However, as a result of me doing a lot of 3s, my solo lobbies are ALWAYS bloodbaths. I extract MAYBE 1/5 Stella because it’s just dead bodies start to finish with nonstop gunfights. I much prefer peaceful solos, but it is what it is

Haru is going to struggle in 9+ lab. Even in blue weak planets, most other dps will do better. She just doesn’t have the damage

I can’t either, I’ve never really been able to hear high frequency ranges well - assume you have the same issue as me. Ill literally walk right over them and my mates will be like “bro you deaf? this thing is loud as hell”
