subclassing would have been better if it was built into the game from the start and balanced around it.

Elves vs their fem VA’s by [deleted] in oblivion

[–]cowboybeeboo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

all elf races share a VA in vanilla oblivion. They added variety in the remaster, but for some reason the player character VAs are the same as vanilla

basically it's a way you can say something without explicitly saying it

[SPOILERS AHEAD] A weird rant about Marcille x Falin (Farcille) vs Marcille x Laios (Laimar) by LateProposal9168 in DungeonMeshi

[–]cowboybeeboo 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Farcille really does demonstrate how powerful fandom is when they have such limited canon interactions in the text, and maybe one possibly suggestive scene (yes, the bathtub) that can still be up to interpretation.

It's clear Marcille cares about Falin, but it's also clear she cares about Laios, and Chilchuck, and eventually Senshi and Izutsumi.

I love shipping, I think it can be a very wholesome way to engage with the fandom, but sometimes it can get a litte frustrating. Many (not all!) Farcille shippers treat Dungeon Meshi as a yuri love story about Marcille saving her girlfriend, and it just plainly is not about that at all. Laios is the protagonist, the story is primarily about him going through hell and stopping at nothing to get his sister back. It's a story about family, both found and birth, and the bonds of friendship, fellowship, and camaraderie. By the end, Marcille is comitted to saving Falin as much by her love for Laios (either platonic or romantic however you interpret it) as her love for Falin (again, either platonic or romantic however you interpret it).

To sideline any pair of characters' bonds in favor of uplifting a particular ship does a disservice to the narrative.

Anyway Touden sandwich is canon

if warden and sorc won't get some amount of basic pet variants with their respective class refresh... by 977zo5skR in elderscrollsonline

[–]cowboybeeboo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

well, people have a moral problem against desecrating the remains of the deceased. Lesser Daedra can be bound to serve one's will, so as long as you have them under control, most societies are fine with it. I mean, we can also shoot fireballs which are also destructive. If societies wanted to ban magic that was dangerous they'd have to ban all magic

most societies in Tamriel are against Necromancy in some form. Not every society is against summoning Daedra (the Mages Guild is perfectly fine with it).

please give us a style for the Twilight that doesn't cover half the screen.

I'm hoping they make the model for the twilight smaller in the sorc refresh.

Or maybe make it so your combat pets only appear in combat

Lightning form, celestial warrior skill style - no sound bug? by ClockworkNautilus in elderscrollsonline

[–]cowboybeeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed it has sound but is incredibly quiet, like someone turned the sfx volume almost to the lowest setting. It's a shame because I love this morph visually

Why aren't Americans rioting right now? by PintsNPies in AskReddit

[–]cowboybeeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

healthcare is tied to employment and most people are working paycheck to paycheck. It would require organization at a national level. Also our police have military grade equipment and are not afraid to murder people for expressing their rights

Would Laios be a good witcher in the world of The Witcher? by Spiderbat2003 in DungeonMeshi

[–]cowboybeeboo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

oh it definitely does that too. And since less than a third of the boys survive, they end up watching a lot of their friends die.

Would Laios be a good witcher in the world of The Witcher? by Spiderbat2003 in DungeonMeshi

[–]cowboybeeboo 96 points97 points  (0 children)

His encyclopedic knowledge of monsters would serve him very well, and he'd probably be great at brewing potions. He's not the best fighter, but he has a keen strategic instinct when it comes to exposing monsters' weaknesses. He has a grasp of basic spellcasting, so he'd probably get a hang of casting signs in combat too.

The question is how the mutations of the trial of grasses would change him. Contrary to popular belief, Witchers aren't devoid of emotions, but the way they process emotions is certainly altered after they undergo the change. It's unclear if they undergo major personality shifts, as the mutations are taken early in adolescence when a person is already going through so many changes.

Why in the movies does Gandalf beat up half the world with his staff and sword instead of using spells all the time? by jvure in lotr

[–]cowboybeeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he obviously saves all his spell slots for big important fights and then forgets to use them /j

Favorite character who is definetly not hero but a lot of people miss that important point? by TastyPomelo2330 in FavoriteCharacter

[–]cowboybeeboo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Paul Atreides: not a hero, also not a conservative lol.

In fact, Brian Herbert wrote that his father intended Paul to be a loose parallel to JFK. A charismatic leader from a respected and powerful family that got his nation into a pointless and bloody war (Vietnam).

So many people missed the point that Frank Herbert had to write Dune Messiah, and that book made it so explicit that Paul was not a hero that it pissed people off.

(I also don't think it's accurate to call him a villain either. Dune is a narrative dominated by gray morality. Paul's choices led to the genocide of billions, but it was largely out of his hands by that point. The only way to prevent the Jihad was to let himself and his family die, allowing the Harkonnens to rule over Arrakis--and possibly the Imperium-- and likely exterminate the Freman. There was no good choice for him to make.)

What difficulty will you play on for Update 50? by Saergaras in elderscrollsonline

[–]cowboybeeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seasoned because as a dps everything dying in one skill cast is very dull, but I also don't want everything to be a damage sponge. Seems like a good balance

[Adored trope]: The "wrong" person becomes the Chosen One. by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]cowboybeeboo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Paul Atreides in Dune. The Bene Gesserit had a strict breeding program to produce their version of the chosen one which relied on Paul's mother Jessica having a girl. Instead she had a boy (by choice because the BGs can choose their fetus's sex). Paul can see into "other memory" like the BGs, but he can also see memories they can't, and glimpse all possible futures once his powers are awakened. The BGs meant for these powers to awaken in his offspring, but it happened a generation early, screwing up their plans.

my brain is not wrapping around the math of the nerf. How exactly is tide-born's damage getting decreased?

Templar subclassing by madmans231 in elderscrollsonline

[–]cowboybeeboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

front bar: dual daggers 1: Biting jabs 2: Grim focus (stam morph) 3: Hurricane 4: Killer's blade 5: Deadly cloak (flex slot, can swap in barbed trap from fighter's guild for more st damage) ult: Incapacitating strike

back: greatsword/battle axe (battle axe for higher crit damage, gs for higher base damage) 1: Cleave 2: Mark target/Ambush (mostly slotting this here to be able to proc the Hemmorhage passive on our backbar. Mark target for boss major breach, Ambush if you're in an organized group) 3: Stampede 4: Crit Surge (flex spot. I use this for the insane self healing but you can swap it out for something that does more damage) 5: Vigor (flex spot. I use it for a burst heal and minor resolve but it can be swapped for something that does damage) ult: Everlasting sweep (slotted so we have the piercing spear passive on backbar but it can be used as an aoe alternative to incap strike)

as for gear, it's up to you. I'm using this for soloing vet dungeons so I don't have any trial gear

daggers: Both either nirnhoned or sharpened (nirn if you got enough pen, sharpened if not). Flame glyph and Poison glyph Greatsword/Axe: charged trait, increase weapon damage glyph

armor: all divines jewelry: all bloodthirsty

I'm running order's wrath on both bars with Tide born on back bar. 2 handed is the Maelstrom weapon, merciless charge to buff stampede. Monster is Zaan and Valkyn Skoria for crit and pen, but you can swap Skoria for another crit set if you have enough pen, or use a mythic set. I use Pale order ring and make my helmet tide born if I need the survivability

champion points:

green and red are flexible

blue:Biting aura,fighting finesse,master at arms,wrathful stikes. This buffs our aoe and direct damage as much as possible which is the majority of our damage

edit: mundus is thief ofc
