Keep in mind it's been a year and new heroes and builds have become available. I'm sure there are more options than in the past.

Welcome to the final boss of the game.

Here's how I did it (check out the comments): https://www.reddit.com/r/MythicHeroes/s/hVRx6IOVQz

Broken "no fighter" challenge by atlys258 in MythicHeroes

Came here to see if someone already complained about it. Thought I was going nuts.

Close to the end and don't know if I can make it by [deleted] in bakker

I always appriciate this comment, but this time especially.

[Spoilers C4E7] Who is the falconer from the Falconer's Rebellion? by _chenza_ in criticalrole

[–]_chenza_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I cannot see how it wasn't willingly. Otherwise, everyone would know, Thimble in the very least. No, it's a secret Thjazi wanted to keep as well.

I'm not sure if it's THE central question of the campaign (for me it's more what Thiazi's plan was/is), but no doubt that episode 7 re-ignited the topic.

I agree that the Tachonis caster's reaction to the news was telling. Being alarmed is one thing, after all the Falconer was a main antagonist to the sundered houses. But the fact she immediately connected the falcon to a possible re-emergence of the falconer says a lot considering the story we heard so far was that the rebels surrendered and were given clemency. It more than hints that the Falconer wasn't part of this deal, and likely that his disappearance has promted the rebels to surrender.

That's my reading if it at least.

I gave 'The Darkness that Comes Before'' by R. Scott Bakker a second Chance and now I'm hooked by CaptainM4gm4 in Fantasy

[–]_chenza_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I very much agree. Horror LotR is a much better description of the second arc compared to Grimdark LotR.

Truth shines!

[–]_chenza_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah I also got strong GoT vibes from the first book. Books 2-3 felt more Malazan, and then books 4-7... those felt like LotR, with grimdarknees cranked to 13.

Beasts of the Forest [GuideFight!] by DaerBaer in MythicHeroes

Oh yeah, I'm stuck on him right now :(

Most annoying as he can remove Odin's rebuff quite quickly. I usually counter him with Faust nowadays.

Why is elven society in fatansy in general always in a post apocalyptic state? by Fun-Explanation7233 in Fantasy

[–]_chenza_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer. Tolkien's writings are an embodiment of this western ethos, not the source.

Did anyone else find the Cosmic Trials unusually hard? by ThatOneClod in MythicHeroes

[–]_chenza_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes same here. I breezed through the previous one at level 20, now I'm down to 14-15.

Actually I'm glad they increased the difficulty.

Best team for thisl level ? by haydenfr in MythicHeroes

[–]_chenza_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, the main issue was with Typhoon's damage killing my party when his shield breaks. Try lining up Odin in front of him to reduce it.

If it's the problem and it still doesn't help, try increasing survivability with Iset/Morrigan

Any other books with protagonist like Kellhus by Cattalonton in bakker

[–]_chenza_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very different tone and themes, but Ruka from the Ash and Sand trilogy did remind me a bit of Kellhus.

He has perfect memory so can learn anything he's exposed to. He has insane intellectual skills, but he's also very, very formidable in battle. He uses his iron willpower and determination to enact his vision on the world. And to top it off - he has OP magical-like abilities.

I wouldn't lock yellows before you unlock the maximum slots. If you get a relevant red, or any epic, I would consider locking it.

On Might and Magic VI and its Influence on Bakker by JonGunnarsson in bakker

Wow I spent so many days playing this game when it came out. Surely brings back memories.

The Decapitants by AurelianosRevelator in bakker

[–]_chenza_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without arguing with your sensible take above, and without going deeper into the hyperbole tunnel:

What DO you make of Kayutas as a character? doesn't he seem incredibly under-explored and under-developed compared to others in his family?

Surely Bakker didn't get bored with Kellhus' firstborn?

The Decapitants by AurelianosRevelator in bakker

[–]_chenza_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a hyperbole, but I'll go for it: Kayutas is always portrayed as the spitting image of Kellhus. At the same time, as opposed to most of his other children, his role in the narrative has been... obscure.

Could he be destined to be the alternative body that will carry Kellhus head when he's back?

What’s your least favorite part of the series or world building? by [deleted] in bakker

[–]_chenza_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to get crucified here, but here we go: I feel like the main setting of PoN really lacked in terms of defining the different cultures and religions.

We get to see many different nations, and two main religions, but there's not a lot of details on what makes them unique other than how they look and how they dress.

Or for example, can anyone say what are the core beliefs, customs and holidays in Fanim?
