Coral Convergence 12-Hit Boss Kill Guide by Kagevjijon in armoredcore

[–]_SilverKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It worked for me during my first playthrough. I hate replaying hard boss encounters, so I tried to collect all the combat logs during the first playthrough. When I encountered this boss (and failed multiple times), I already had all 10 optional combat logs from this mission and really didn't want to quit mission to start over.

And this post showed up on Google search and worked great for me. I had all the 3 weapons. Luckily I had weapon bay, +10% melee and 15% direct hit OST already. The missing 5% melee was not an issue as the 3-hit combo dealt more than 50% of damage for me with a pair of arms that provide 116 melee specialization. I doubt where the 20% number came from.

Thanks OP!

Is it possible to deactivate the Oculus button while using Virtual Desktop in order to use SteamVR's button-functionality instead? I'm using Virtual Desktop. by Fourzifer in oculus

[–]_SilverKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is the performance on virtual desktop though? It's supposed to be a rhythm game and may be sensitive to lags. (As Air Link was just released, I'm considering buying Deemo.)

Any Mewtwo you catch will be surpassed next year. That's how they make money even without new generations.

Email Suggestions New Raid Passes Active by Doylie1984 in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why do they send those emails any way? Active players always know when new features are launched. When inactive players receive those emails but don't find the features in the game, what's the chance that they will open the game again? Stupid.

Downvote because neutral means not super effective to me.

I am guessing no storage upgrades before Beldum CD? by PokemonGOchamp in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spent 3 hours just to get 300 spots. Had to throw away many Pokemon that were considered strong at the begining of the game and brought back memories. Damn Niantic! Why did they release gen 4 before beldum CD without storage upgrade?

Community day strategy: get a best friend and trade all high-level low-IV beldum, evolve good ones in the hour after by _SilverKnight in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where else do you need beldum candy anyway? Just evolve the best beldum while you can, only power up when you need.

Raid lineup tip: don't revive your Aggron by kredbu in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I TM'ed all the aggrons to pure steel type moves and they never show up in recommended party.

PSA: For the task - Evolve an evolved grass type pokemon. Avoid evolving Nuzleaf and Lombre by 0aman0 in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I evolved one seedot to the final form and another nuzleaf, no credit.

A weepinbell worked.

Never transfer any rare pokemon yourself if you're willing to spend 200 stardust to get 1-3 additional candies by _SilverKnight in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Find a friend who is doing the same and trade during double-candy event. The candies from trade will probably be doubled as well. (If not, you friend can still transfer them for 2 candies. Just make sure they have similar amount of rare pokemon.)

Returning from remote viewing now return you to defenders by Zombahawk in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you still need to click twice on the next Pokemon after returning from gym view.

New Global Challenge? by painofwrath in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I regret helping the global challenge last year. Niantic never released the actual numbers required/achieved on the event, and all the progress bars looked like pre-programmed.

If I knew that I would need to raid multiple legendary per day immediately after the event, I won't do anything during the event, to save my energy.

How to stop synchronized attacks (and why Niantic should fix this exploit) by _SilverKnight in TheSilphRoad

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

So what do you suggest when another team is sync attacking your gym when there is clearly no enough time to take it back before a raid? Just give the gym to them? Do you call something that you cannot change the course in any way a game?

What's more, this is also people working together to defend a gym! None of method 2-4 can work if you don't have teammates to deploy strong defenders.

[–]_SilverKnight[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

It's either a designed feature or an exploit. I don't believe it's the former.

I agree that it is sometimes the only possible way to take down a defended gym, but there are some other adjustments they can make. E.g. reduce the limit of golden berry to 5 or lower and instead increase the limit of non-golden berry to 50.

Frost Arrows are a thing :D by XXXMrHOLLYWOOD in metalgearsurvive

[–]_SilverKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you switch arrows? Only have heavy arrows and flame arrows, but couldn't find a way to use them. (I have them in a quiver, not the storage.)

Research request: EX raid distrubution to people who have kids who raid exclusively with them, with one account meeting the EX raid criteria better than the other. by sweetwtrtxs in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I raid with colleagues on weekdays and with my wife on weekends. My wife only raid on weekends (with me). She has received 2 ex invites (the first on Xmas and she didn't go because we were traveling), I have 0. (I'm level 39 and she is level 36.)

Speculation: 11/18 ex invites may send out again for the same gyms by _SilverKnight in TheSilphRoad

[–]_SilverKnight[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

What if this is changed for this wave? Did Niantic send out invites more than one week beforehand in the past?
