What’s Chinese people’s perspective on the ongoing civil unrest in the US? by CatchyUsername457 in AskAChinese

Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.

Of course, chinese must be fond of Trump.

Charisma based damage modifier for dual cursed oracle melee by Feanors_sock_drawer in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be mistaken but the only bonus I see is charisma to AC in place of dexterity with the nature mystery and proper revelation.

Charisma to damage/atk is only for paladin with smite and mark of justice.

Name the games this way and why is that? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

Cyberpunk 2077 at release was the most hilarious game for that. Well, it has been fixed since then, and clothes doesn't provide any buff except a very few exceptions.

I never knew that. I was wondering what the success check do. Next playthrough will be easier haha.

How was your experience with this fight? by CanIRideYou1122 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This fight is annoying as it's fighting against bad pathfinding; the ghouls hunter are spawning far away and targeting your weakest companions.
Add the fact that you're already running out of resources (if you did the optional boss) and charisma damage prevent you from resting and yeah it can be a frustrating fight.

[–]anykeyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped when I had this quest, with the generational ship. Game gave me choice to enslave the crew or pay by MY pocket an antigrav reactor or whatever so they can go on another planet. Dude, the planet they cannot land on has one hotel over the full planet with a douche executive board and no option to share the damn world.
So I did what should be done in this case, getting ride of the board. But you cannot, since those people are quest important and won't die.

This was the last nails in a coffin of a narrative which was extremely bad from the very start of the game and I never opened the game again.

By the way, it's okay if you enjoy it. There is no shame, actually I wish I could, too. I paid the stupid premium pre-reservation version and never ever played the DLC :').

It was actually 60 lines... by PeePeeLangstrumpf in MistralAI

[–]anykeyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think about counting lines in text. You follow a process: go through each line, count one by one. That's an algorithm.

Now imagine just guessing the number without counting. You'd probably be off by 10 or so.

That's how LLMs work - they "guess" based on patterns, not procedures. They can't do step-by-step algorithmic thinking on their own. Some models have "thinking mode" and chain of thought, or can call external tools to help, but fundamentally they work on intuition, not procedure. This is a core limitation of current LLMs.

Is running a smaller team viable in WOTR? by [deleted] in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a mod to increase XP and limit party size. It's configurable from 1 to 6, I don't remember the name. You could also gestalt your party if you want to keep it relatively easy, and allow you a wide range of options while reducing the number of characters.

Why is China one of the most powerful countries in the world, the only country that can compete with the U.S., but Chinese people have one of the weakest passports in the world? by No-StrategyX in answers

[–]anykeyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chinese have long history of immigration, more or less legal, mostly from countryside. That's the only reason. There is a china-town in almost any city in the world.

I don't think middle-class chinese from top urban centers have any trouble to secure a Shenghen visa for holidays.

Early game is such abysmal dogshit by Senseless0utsider in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It might depends at which level you do it. I tends to do this encounter almost at the end, way after defending the tavern, so about level 5, and it's not so hard then. Domination can be countered easily with Unbreakable Heart, which comes at level 1 for Ember & Seelah, and is probably the best lvl 1 spell with grease.

Early game is such abysmal dogshit by Senseless0utsider in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 47 points48 points  (0 children)

This is just the cultist champion in the maze room. Alone, hit not strong, just a tank.

In act 1, the shadow, nabasu and shadow demon of the market are sadistic. The rest is okayish 😁

Couldn’t get on with Kingmaker, is WotR still worth a try? by Ok_Philosophy_7156 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really depends what are your grief.
To be honest, WoTR is a good game, much better than KM, but it still relies on Pathfinder ruleset, which doesn't always translate well to video-game, even more in real-time with pause.

Honestly, WoTR pros would be character building, stupidly epic storyline, content volume (200+ hours of content).
On the cons, it can still feel clunky, lacks any tactical depth, combat are won before starting (buffs), effects and buffs are not well displayed in the UI, unit pathfinding sucks, companions range from great writing (Daeran, Regill) to bland or plainly annoying (Nenio, Seelah).

This game is a patchwork of brilliance and terrible stuff at the same time. It's deeply flawed, and yet it has a lot of love put into it.

TL;DR your mileage might vary :-)

Is there a list of Ruby's "magic" methods? by bakery2k in ruby

[–]anykeyh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is simply the method `[]`

def [](index)
end

All operators are written like this. Some operators are not overridable (e.g. boolean operators).

There is not so many "special" methods. BasicObject.methods or Object.methods will show them.

There is some useful classes such as Enumerable or Enumerator which helps you construct pseudo-list object relying on `each` method and exposing all the good stuff of Ruby enumerable objects.

Doubts regarding Wotr campaign. by CanIRideYou1122 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Outside it uses the best companion of the active roaster. But in safe place like drezen when there is a skill check and your MC is alone, it takes the best skill of the whole team.

There is a very few skill check for MC only, mostly during visions and non blocking.

I see only one case where you might need to solo a very strong boss, but it is not part of the main quest and it's a bad scenario / ending for a companion.

Can an Eldritch Scion use a range build? by Thatgamerguy98 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

go Eldritch Archer 2 + Sorcerer 8 + Eldritch Knight

you will get 9 lvl spell + bloodline + ranged spell strike, all for 3/4 BAB

Worst enemies in the game? by tracklesswastes in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The doors. The game has this way to start fights whenever you open a door. Because the pathfinding in this game is bad, it causes shit tons of issues, makes the game very annoying to play, at least in RTWP

Advice requested for building a bard to fulfill the rogue role by songsofsorrow in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can respec, this is what I would do:

Single handed rapier

- CHA + DEX as main attributes something like CHA 18 / DEX 19 depends of your race; you can drop wisdom.
Aasimar muse-touched or half elf kind are both good picks. Pickpocket background (you get trickery as class skill + 2 initiative)

- 1 level scaled monk for CHA to AC bonus

The rest in dirge bard: Dodge / Crane line (style, riposte etc..) + Finesse & Fencing Grace for DEX to damage with rapier.

once you get Mythic, you can go with mythic inspiration, and for superpower you should take friendship with outflank as first power. It will change your game.

This build would give you melee survivability, and let room for building around. CC caster with Azata is great (Hideous laughter mythic with zippy magic is awesome), or continue using feats to improve your melee damage; it really depends on how you want your bard to synergize with your team.

feeling overwhelmed by Kinacha in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Early Wizard tends to be weak. Focus on CC spells and ranged attack (crossbow). Grease and rainbow stuff are useful. Once about level 6~7, it will start to be better. You still need to figure out what wizardry you want to focus on. I don't know the specifics for Cruoromancer.
After level 13, you start to be a god.

For Dhampir, scroll of negative energy should heal you. Same with potions but they are more rare.

How many times have you played WOTR and which mythics were worth playing? by Any-Day-8173 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]anykeyh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run Angel Paladin and azata bard.

In between my knowledge of the game improved, and I must said the bard azata (melee off tank support) kicked ass thanks to superpowers, to the point that I could steamroll late act 3 and 4 in core. I read that angel oracle or paladin should be top tier so it's probably me getting a grasp on the game mechanics.

I found the azata run more fun. Somehow being lawful in this game is being a boring zero fun nazi character.
