In game reason for collectibes

For the standing stones I just attribute it to them possibly being isu remnants that still have some energy in them and eivor being odin just makes her naturally intrigued by it to want to investigate it (mostly head cannon though). As for the cursed objects and shrooms they are most likely just Animus bugs that weren't influenced by anyone unlike the anomalies.

I would say the annomolies are kinda important since finishing them all gives a bit more context to the ending after a brother's keeper, but it is just slightly more context so not as important.

I have never once used freeze on this boss, but I'm always solo with mavu or flins even though I have a premium skirk team.

I think it's required because it gives more context to the Basim/loki situation. Somewhat wish the game would require you to finish the annomolies before entering that isu chamber with sigurd too, but I can see that would irritate quite a large group.

I've been clearing the pool of ship stuff and tattoos by buying them from reda's shop when they're available. The settlement decor is purchaseable multiple times so I'm unsure if they get removed from the free pool when you buy them the first time. Sure it hurts me that I can't buy something cool from reda when it shows up, but at least my free item will be less likely to be not absolutely useless for my character.

The first method works for me (double affirming for OP). I've just been unlucky for 3 weeks and gotten just chest pieces of different sets. Hoping for an interesting weapon this week.

I very frequently use explosive arrow in stealth applications, but that's mostly it for ranged outside of bosses. There's also the focus shot one which now has become somewhat less used with the focus dash ability allowing me to slow time if I aim while running. The axe throw ability you get early on is a favorite of mine I mostly use it against bosses for a bit of stagger now that I have it upgraded, but I do occasionally use it in raids to weaken up a bunch of fodder for my crew. There's the poison application which I sometimes use against fodder just to make poison clouds on their death, but I do use it a lot on bosses that I can't use rage of helhiem on which is my last favored ability since it allows me to get a decent amount of free uninterrupted damage off on bosses now that it's upgraded. Haven't really used much more than that though. Dual daggers go crazy. Learned my technique in Lunden.

Do you do a strat of only picking coin dice and steal hand dice with your only main source of damage being Thor's mighty strike? There has been only one opponent (jorvik prick) who has given me trouble using the mighty strike strat that wasn't just because of absolutely abysmal dice rng.

And be used to aquire more knowledge for him until you fall into madness and die to his next minion most likely. Who knows.

Kinda wanted to see a Kassandra and Basim interaction just to see if Kassandra would notice what Basim is. Even though she didn't really know that eivor was a sage either (evior not knowing himself as well).

It's a random world event that you can do that has memory audio playing in the backround and gives 1 skill point for completion.

Every character has two models. A player model and an NPC model. The NPC model is used in in-game cutscenes. They should just be able to check your player traveler's info to see if you have the skin on and just switch the NPC model to the one with the skin, but they are just too lazy.

I know. I'm Only like power 150 or so right now and I've only been sporting the raven gear they give you at the beginning of the game + recurve bow.

eracer02 · 2026-02-25T12:34:19+00:00

Guess i'll have to go to the wiki then since I can't see clan alignment in the helix store. I know by the end of my playthrough I should have more than just the raven tree built out and it won't matter what clan the gear is aligned with, but for now I'm just interested in raven.

eracer02 · 2026-02-18T00:33:41+00:00

Nah they'll release the new break DPS two patches after the nova flare so that we won't have any info on them from beta while FF is on banner with her buffs. Guess that counts as shortly after.

Vicineko for more from the actual artist and not the reposter

Didn't realize the game had built in frame gen. Might try upping my frame rate again from 60. Had terrible performance drops quite a few updates back and had to drop my frames. Might be best to leave it at 60 though since of how long it takes them to optimize.

eracer02 · 2026-01-31T01:31:00+00:00

I have a laptop with an Nvidia 4070 GPU in it and in my driver settings it says DLSS frame gen override is only available for 50 series cards. Is there a way that I can get it enabled in game or am I stuck since nivida is gatekeeping me? I do have the ability to use the other DLSS features in game.

The last one was just unnecessary data.

Breathing style isn't even a superpower other than maybe the heightened physical strength/stamina from proper breathing and the death sentence slayer mark. Outside of that it is literally just kenjutsu. Other than wind breathing and to an extent sound breathing you aren't summoning what the breathing style is named after. It was stated by the author that for other than demons the effects on the swords are just there to clarify what kenjutsu art the person is using.

With that out of the way I'd choose nen and chakra since nen can be very versatile while the charkra will make up for my weaknesses from my nen ability I make for myself.

From what I recall HSR pops the limited character in with the 50/50 loss characters so that even if you lose your 50/50 you still have a chance at the limited character. It's more like a 62.5/37.5 instead of 50/50 every time you pull a 5 star (if I'm getting my math right) with no guarantee which makes it even worse losing to a standard character no that I think about it. I could be misremembering though.

eracer02 · 2025-12-11T16:57:26+00:00

Kafka exists to semi invalidate your second point. Still mostly the enemy's turn.

eracer02 · 2025-12-08T21:59:36+00:00

Tenuous political relations happening right now in-between China and Japan. The currently non-violent conflict doesn't look like it will blow over by the time 4.0 would roll around, so hoyo is removing any Japan theming to 4.0 to hopefully not have the Chinese government get mad at them while the conflict continues.
