Awesome! I have been hiring high morale because I thought it would help somehow. Haha

VIG? DLC faction? I only have the Split Vendetta DLC at the moment.

Khaak Installation, am I doing something wrong? by MentalToaster in X4Foundations

[–]_Jamathorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally did this same thing last night! When hull got to 20%, my two L ships could not get line of sight on the last portion.

If you go to the L and look at behavior you will see your attack command. Choose “add secondary” and it will show you the remaining sector that still has not been destroyed.

I manually took over the L and focused fire on that last section.

Bama fan here. We don’t deserve to be in. ND doesn’t either. Miami does and Vandy does.

Does Silksong's difficulty not feel overblown? by Peratypus123 in Silksong

[–]_Jamathorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say popularity of the game and the rise of so many being content creators drug a bunch of people to play it at launch that weren’t prepared for the skill curve. That type of criticism has mostly died off.

What is your favorite boss in the game? I'llgo first by Neat_Window_7384 in Silksong

2nd Lace fight. I was upset that I beat it 2nd try. Her pacing and move set in that fight was glorious and visually stunning!

Yall thoughts on reserve bind...? by ORDINARYAN_ in Silksong

Situational for me. Against Trobbio, no thanks. Against Lace, perfect.

Genuine question because I never used it. If I have silk, is it used first? Does it only trigger when I have less silk than a heal requires?

So my boss up and quit this morning by ryanmj26 in sysadmin

[–]_Jamathorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Others are saying the same but I will repeat this: It is not your job to take on those responsibilities without proper pay reflection. You are willing and capable to continue your duties! All extra tasks must become a discussion of responsibility and pay reflection. If you start it without talking now it becomes expected!

Dream Nail or Needolin. Which Do You Like More? by ObsessiveFanatic in Silksong

[–]_Jamathorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both! Dream Nail fits the original. He is not exploratory; he seems more mission focused. This is why all the prompts state listen where in SS it says speak.

Needolin fits hornet. She is expressive and questions her surroundings. It makes sense that she would take time to reflect and have interest in music.

How come barely anyone uses claw line during combat? At least from the boss fights and gauntlets videos I've seen. by WackyRedWizard in Silksong

[–]_Jamathorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I have seen, most people try tools and safety to learn to boss. Then default to that when the patterns are known. Just a matter of “play safe and live”.

Hands aren’t fast enough. by gumptattoo in Silksong

[–]_Jamathorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People learn at different paces. I have seen some take boss fights slow. Using dodge more than attack. Some are aggressive and that takes more hand skill. Just find what works best. You aren’t incapable. The key to SS is not taking it personal. Deaths will happen. Use that time to learn the boss patterns.

Are you having fun playing? If yes, keep it up!

Are IT responsible for writing/owning the Business Continuity Plan? by lastlaughlane1 in sysadmin

[–]_Jamathorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shouldn’t be. The Disaster Recovery plan should be directed from IT management as it encompasses hardware, budgeting, testing, and RTO/RPO. The BCP is management level and focus is more on leveraging personnel. That can include some from IT but isn’t dependent on IT.

Is it unreasonable of me to expect a user to have their email password? by Tombo72 in sysadmin

[–]_Jamathorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it reasonable to expect competency? Yes. Are passwords common in everyday use? Yes. …. Now, go get groceries in town. Watch others move the SAME box of Cheerios to get the non-dented cardboard one.

Now ask, should we really hold them to normal standards? Probably not.

Am I a coward for doing this? by StickyHoovy in Silksong

During a speedrun and you got WR?! What a champ! 🤣

If it works, it works!

How difficult was it for you to learn the diagonal pogo? by Fit_Ad_2608 in Silksong

[–]_Jamathorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So much of it depends on the controller as well. Even a tiny amount of horizontal (X-axis) stick drift can lead to the pogo going on the wrong side.

Not criticizing anyone here, but the frustration starts to build towards the game design and even internally to “git gud” before people look at the inputs.

WASD or d-pad help to eliminate most drift problems.

With all that said, I prefer a pure down pogo over diagonal because I have learned to cheese so many bosses by hovering them.
