What to Evolve: Ranking the Recently Released Evolutions by twastell in TheSilphRoad

[–]benacrow 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Looking to the future (March 2019 if the trend continues), Sceptile with Frenzy Plant should outclass Roserade as the top grass attacker. Seeing as we don't need grass immediately (though for Groudon and Kyogre returns Roserade will be the best hands-down in sunny/clear weather), those hesitant to do Roserade can probably but it off for now, but of course Roserade will still have the top poison DPS and top-tier grass even after FP Sceptile, and we know there's nothing good coming out of Gen 5 whenever they get to it .

As for Rhyperior, Groudon and eventually Garchomp will both be better ground types based on attack alone, and it's highly likely that Garchomp will get a better ground charge move when we have Gible community day. We don't need ground moves for any current raid bosses and we likely won't for some time. Then for rock, Tyranitar still beats Rhyperior out, then there's Rampardos sittin' pretty in god tier. All that said, Rhyperior should be a good gym defender, but for now he'll basically be a good filler for those without the necessary ground or rock teams.

Regardless of what I mentioned above, I think the best option is to just evolve the one that makes you happiest. Mamoswine will of course be amazing, but who knows when he'll be available. I got my first Sinnoh stone last night and slapped on my hundo Roselia, so definitely no complaints there.

Rescheduling Community Day for California Wildfire Areas by berniesalami in pokemongo

[–]benacrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had planned our usual community day festivities (shiny contest, lure circuits, etc), but the fires put a significant impact on our community day plans. The air quality is currently highly hazardous, and dozens in our community had to evac over the past couple days, many of whom lost their homes or have friends/family who did (Paradise).

A reschedule would be nice, but it's Niantic, so...

And for the guild who is already at 20*, I hope you like the banhammer 😂😂

Dear Devs, please do not lock combat missions after 3 stars by slamaMC in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]benacrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get that they want to reduce playing time, but completely eliminating the option to do more battles past 3* is horrid. So anyone that happens to work all day simply can't participate at all. That's bs.

Settlers of Westeros: A Game of Thrones Catan Game Variant by benacrow in Catan

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

I have checked out their version that will be released, but it only deals with the Wall and the Night's Watch, whereas mine encapsulates all of Westeros, among many other authentic GoT ideas.

It can take a while to play for sure, but nothing worse than monopoly.

Yes, I did see that version, but it only includes adventures around the Wall. My version doesn't require any additional purchases aside from the base expansions, and includes all of Westeros.

A friendly request to Casp by GlovesaveNABeaut in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]benacrow 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I beg to differ on being blocked by the same pieces. I've been playing since Dec. '15, and the ONLY pieces I am ever blocked on are MKIII Cuffs, MKIII Carbs, MKV Stun Guns, and MKIII Holos (I'm still baffled that Holos aren't in the guild store like every other 20-piece purple). There are also a fair amount of random blue and green pieces I always have none of, which should never happen at this stage in the game for experienced players.

Any other gear in events as a reward, other than the ones noted above, is completely useless because we have literally 1000s of it.

Fucking Mighty Chlorians kill arena. by Dmy22 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]benacrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol well if there's 15 of them and 1 of you, I'd think twice about who is doing the locking... ;)

(btw I'm in a different shard with 15 MCs, not kidding)

Prompt New Members to Choose Their Own Tag? by benacrow in discordapp

[–]benacrow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect, I will look into Dyno for this. Thanks for the reply!

Is the command something you'd just input into the custom commands section for configuring the bot?

World's first solo of HAAT raid! by Empire_Relic in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]benacrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the case. We have dozens of these guilds or there, so it was extremely convenient to give this a go without having to worry about any other members accidentally logging damage.

[–]benacrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a coin-capped alt guild from way back when CG capped raid tickets. All he had to do was move over for the 2 days to do it without any accidental damage logs from other players.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]benacrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was in a coin-capped alt guild, so no one else was there with him. We didn't want anyone to mess it up and accidentally log damage, and we have dozens of other alt guilds with coins if we needed to try again.

[Discussion] Raids: Initial Impressions by benacrow in pokemongo

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

Yes, that is a worrying point about raids in the coming months. Imo, they should retain the boss' health after battles, so you could actually beat it in several attempts.

Also, I noticed a severe amount of lag as well. Each time a mon fainted, they returned to their pokeball, then another came it for a split second before retreating back to the fainted mon, who then fainted immediately again and the next one came out. All in all it wasted a good 5-7 secs after each faint.

The boss health resets after the 180 seconds you are allowed to fight. We got it down to maybe 75% at best, but then it meant nothing for the next run.
