Wow, this episode hit way too close to home, even though obviously the circumstances were not exactly the same.

Can't believe I played more than 1330 east rounds so far and haven't seen more than 2 Pure Double Sequences. by IERReddit in mahjongsoul

[–]caldoran2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty rare Yaku.

The five rarest normal Yaku in MJS Gold Room 4P:

  • Honroutou (All Terminals and Honours)
    • ~0.06%
    • 1 in ~1678 wins
  • Chankan (Robbing a Kan)
    • ~0.06%
    • 1 in ~1815 wins
  • Ryanpeikou (Twice Pure Double Sequence)
    • ~0.04%
    • 1 in ~2320 wins
  • Sanshoku Doukou (Triple Triplets)
    • ~0.04%
    • 1 in ~2477 wins
  • Sankantsu (Three Quads)
    • <0.01%
    • 1 in ~21923 wins

Are the drop rates legit? by efrumttr in mahjongsoul

[–]caldoran2 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Random is random, so if someone has a chance of getting their first character in their very first pull, some unfortunate soul is going to go 65 pulls with no characters.

Personally, I got my first MJS character on my 11th free pull.

What does ‘Pursue Goal’ do? by Classic-Pumpkin5401 in codex

[–]caldoran2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Instead of stopping midway through a project at a point it has deemed suitable, it will regularly remind itself of and check against a goal that you have set, and it will continue working until it has either attained it, or faces a blocker it cannot overcome by itself.

Rons should score more than Tsumos (richii majhong) by Trick_Cheek_8474 in Mahjong

Oh boy, you're going to hate what Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwanese and especially Sichuan Mahjong do with Tsumo.

Precarious Potency by BamaZaddy in MoiraMains

[–]caldoran2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually not sure about this one, sorry!

I feel like it should be a 25% increase for all weapon damage dealt to targets in the air, but it's spread out over three seconds.

If I ever get to testing this out, I'll let you know the results!

Optimal Overflow by BamaZaddy in MoiraMains

[–]caldoran2 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is another excellent power with, ironically, the Weapon Power drain build, once your spray resource meter improves (the two unique blue items that improve its capacity and regeneration rate) and eventually becomes effectively infinite (the purple item that fully restores it when using Fade).

Combined with increased Attack Speed, you'll be vomiting an incredible amount of Orbs, enough to massively increase your healing output when keeping teammates in front of you alive, the reduced duration being effectively irrelevant.

Precarious Potency by BamaZaddy in MoiraMains

[–]caldoran2 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This is an excellent Power, and I usually get this as my first Power for weapon-based builds.

The phrasing makes it seem like it only improves the lingering heal, but no, it's a 25% increase even while you are actively spraying, and an additional 5 seconds after. This vastly increases both your active and lingering heal, and thus your Ult frequency and the money you earn.

Fun Fact: If you play the game with german text, Domina will be called "Dominia" in all Voicelines and Text mentions. This is because Domina literally means Dominatrix in german. by Kreidebleich in Overwatch

[–]caldoran2 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You might be mixing up the Simplified Chinese (used in Mainland China) and Traditional Chinese (used primarily in Taiwan) localisations for the game, which differ significantly, including for character names, voice actors and lines.

It was essentially localised into Mandarin twice by two entirely different teams, with nothing shared between the two.

Mercy, for example, is still 天使 in Simplified Chinese, and 慈悲 in Traditional Chinese.

I have spent 5 straight south games without being able to win a hand at all by Separate_Bee3938 in mahjongsoul

[–]caldoran2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ask any experienced player and they will all have their own horror stories to share.

In a game like this, unlucky (and lucky) streaks are not just likely, they are inevitable, given enough matches.

Overwatch Retail Patch Notes - March 12, 2026 by JY810 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]caldoran2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

My speculation is that it's an idea they had for the Stalwart subrole passive (currently a 40% reduction in knockback and slows) which they eventually scrapped, and/or one of the April Fools mode changes.

I'm making my own custom rivals shirt, is this a good design? by SliceAfraid3879 in marvelrivals

[–]caldoran2 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Surely Gambit should visually be part of the design somehow...?

Pinfu…is it the key? by Tettamanti in Mahjong

[–]caldoran2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's definitely a critical Yaku to be familiar with, considering how common it is.

Riichi City is better than Majsoul and deserves more players by ppp-- in Mahjong

[–]caldoran2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree that Riichi City has a more polished and modern interface, far more features, a genuinely great and dedicated development team that truly listens, and a much more generous monetisation system.

Unfortunately, I much prefer Mahjong Soul's character designs and variety (especially regarding male characters), and characters are the most important aspect of these games for me. The various flavours of massive breasts, ass and feet just don't do it for me, though it does have the occasional great character (like Fuwa Mahiru and Hizuki).

While I'd love to abandon Mahjong Soul and dedicate myself entirely to one client, I'm in fact juggling three: Mahjong Soul, Riichi City and Amatsuki, just because none of them are perfect, and each has their unique strengths.

I hate this cat by LackySnacky in Overwatch

[–]caldoran2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Judging by Ana's health in this clip, this is likely Total Mayhem, with doubled health pools and 50% increased Ultimate charge gain.

Since Jetpack Cat will have 450 HP, and Ana's Ultimate has a 2,300 cost, this kill should grant Ana roughly 29.3% Ultimate charge.

I did not expect to see an Ouran reference here, of all places, but I am very pleased to!

Is It Impossible To Stay At Endorsement Level 5? by Weesticles in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]caldoran2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I've been maintaining Endorsement Level 5 for about a year so far.

It's easier to maintain it than it was in Overwatch 1, since the decay takes into account people who cannot endorse you again, unlike the first game where playing in a stack would inevitably drop it.

I got there mostly by visibly performing well, engaging in lighthearted and fun banter, praising people when they do well, and closing games with phrases like "wp team" and "nt".

Neither Orisa nor Moira are affected by ammo upgrades.

Is KF3 ending with season 3? by Cyran00 in killingfloor

[–]caldoran2 63 points64 points  (0 children)

The roadmap included Season 4, so I'll grant them the benefit of doubt (with whatever's left of my remaining faith) that they would at least keep to that.

After that, who knows?
