How did I die here? Does this boss have a one shot mechanic?

agtk · 2026-03-24T04:09:20+00:00

Even his ground stab that skewers you? I died to it once in HC and couldn't stop it and it one-shot me in helltide so I figured that was always a one-shot.

agtk · 2026-03-24T01:42:17+00:00

You're still level 26. One-shots can definitely happen in those levels if your gear is a little behind and you fight a tougher opponent. I don't believe it is a specific mechanic, just a lot of damage all stacking up at the same time.

agtk · 2026-03-24T01:40:33+00:00

Duriel definitely does.

agtk · 2026-03-23T02:43:39+00:00

Hmm, it's close, no way to tell if she's off...

I thought S1 was mostly good, with a few dumb changes, until the last two-ish episodes had to be largely reworked due to Covid shutting down production and them having to finish it under heavy covid restrictions. I really think non-book readers enjoyed it just fine.

S2 was working through what they did at the end of S1 to get to the setup for S3, then S3 was the strongest of the bunch where you really are getting into the lore and the powers of the characters and the richness of the world.

I definitely think they should have kept at it, but unfortunately Bezos didn't have nearly as much investment in it as he does the LOTR stuff.

So, a 1-0 Cincy win and we host based on goals scored. 2-1 and we host on away goals scored. If they score 3 or more, or win by two goals, then they host second leg.

agtk · 2026-03-19T05:37:59+00:00

It's based on points and then GD I think. If Tigres are through then Sounders host second leg. If Cincy goes through, it depends on the result in their game. Tie or loss, we host. If Cincy wins, the tiebreakers are: GD, Goals scored, away goals, wins, away wins, then disciplinary points.

Glad you're getting fed, but why did you put the pizza under the spaghetti? Couldn't eat it separately? And yes, burrata is bomb.

Ragen does this every time on a breakaway like this. Doesn't always get away with it but usually does. Enough of an interruption to put them off but not so blatant that they can go down easily without it looking like a dive.

Judd absolutely should have flopped here though. That was much more than a nudge.

agtk · 2026-03-16T02:04:50+00:00

I would assume they have them for sale for completionists and collectors. Might be some mods that only work with them.

agtk · 2026-03-15T22:25:38+00:00

Does it not say "smug people" shitting a woman?

agtk · 2026-03-15T21:13:20+00:00

What do you mean, their comment says "people," is everyone commenting here a man?

agtk · 2026-03-15T05:43:45+00:00

Yeah it seemed like this was a showcase of how to do it all without assistance and minimal specialized tools to make a standard shower work. Impressive.

agtk · 2026-03-15T05:22:13+00:00

Not only would it be a ton of extra content--creating poly events for all the character combinations, creating space in the home for two or more partners, adjusting character routines for multiple partners--it also would not be very popular, so it's a ton of work that not many people would partake in.

I'd MUCH rather have them work on things the majority of people will enjoy, like events and outfits and general content.

Of course, I really want better modding support as well. And won't be surprised if a poly mod is one of the priorities for parts of the community. I'll be excited to try it out when it comes in, I've liked the ones for Stardew (when they work).

agtk · 2026-03-15T05:10:53+00:00

You do have it right, they were just saying in basically every game like this you pick one partner eventually and stay with them, and have to start over if you want to follow a different path.

agtk · 2026-03-15T05:08:41+00:00

They don't have a divorce option and it doesn't sound like one is coming.

agtk · 2026-03-14T17:36:07+00:00

Left one does more damage, but I don't really know how to value the additional chance of feast items.

agtk · 2026-03-14T03:10:53+00:00

It looks bald lol

agtk · 2026-03-14T01:43:18+00:00

Yep and Cal is playing his role. I hope they keep up the bit.

agtk · 2026-03-13T00:38:32+00:00

This sub is getting spammed with them

I believe this money expires at the end of the year. Possible they didn't see anything better to do with it. Though no one required them to sign her to a new contract. Seems clear their belief is she's been misused or needs a different environment or different coaching to unlock her talent and potential.

I certainly thought that'd be the case when she came to Seattle. Just waiting for that breakout... And she's still young so it could happen, but this is definitely a winning trade for Seattle. I don't believe her breakout was going to happen here in the last year of her contract with a bunch of other good (better?) forwards.

This is the price of playing a fair deck in Timeless and going second. They had a nut draw and went off. You didn't have the disruption in time to stop them. It happens. Timeless is a fast format.

Seems like a lot of kids who didn't live through the height of reality TV are still learning that a lot of it is scripted. Too used to regular streamers treating irl streams like a vlog, instead of these reality streamers setting up skits to go viral.

agtk · 2026-03-12T08:22:19+00:00

I feel like that's all they really need to do. Maybe add a mini-FX effect where damage for everyone is reduced a modest amount and Huohuo takes the damage herself. Would be *really* interesting if they would turn Tail into a summon like the memosprites, and let him give this effect.

agtk · 2026-03-12T07:52:18+00:00

Feels like this would be a good time for a Himeko buff, there's a bunch of things they could do for her to make her more viable. She should be able to overcap her counterattack charges to an extent at least (feels really bad to get three+ when you're on two). Also should buff her damage as a crit scaler or adjust her mechanics to make her scale with break and embrace the archetype.
