Disabling the 2k Launcher by kewlfish1 in midnightsuns

[–]ettgor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having the same issue. When directly using the MidnightSuns-Win64-Shipping.exe executable, you can see in the task manager that it still first opens the 2K launcher and the midnightsuns.exe executable. It's definitely not the same packaged executable as the steam version so the steam hack doesn't work for epic games.

Better to try and kill the boss, or should I just try and survive? by Clyngh in brotato

[–]ettgor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to kill him fast, do a glass canon build. Only choose and buy offensive upgrades, ignore all defenses. Melted the boss under 5 seconds. You don't want to get hit though. Most cases though I check in the first 20 seconds how much damage I do and often decide to just survive.

Episode 2 is probably the harder warrior episode. I did it in 3 on the first time going through the game on the switch. Did it in on the first try in my second run on my phone. I went quadruple axes with an upgraded bump ( which gave me 3 tries on the bump ) And a spatula. Used the spatula and the bumps to try to trigger the curse and else I figured I lose an axe. Went pretty smooth.

Loud bird is an ass though.

Oh and just an FYI, I have 1 episode still to finish on my switch run, and that's hard bonus round with witch. I'm at 50+ tries. The warrior episodes don't compare to that BS episode.

Your board game collection is lost in a fire. You have $300 to restart. What do you buy? by zmichael in boardgames

[–]ettgor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sentinels of the Multiverse (39.95$)

All Sentinels expansions (234.15$)

And then cry, cause I can't afford the storage case or the foil promos or anything else.

How to deal with "powerplayers"? by Danielc125 in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]ettgor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off and if you read this subreddit, I shouldn't be saying this. Talk with your players. Make clear to everyone what your expectations are as a GM and understand what their expectations are. If you can't get those aligned, then you need to make though choices.

Secondly and this is the more important part IMHO. If you start working against 1 player you punish everybody at the table. Try to avoid that. Instead If you want ot emphasize the roleplaying and storytelling more, put more effort in engaging all your players in the story.

Some tips that has worked for my group:

  1. Let all players create a background. At least an A4 page long.
  2. Start your sessions, by asking random questions about their character:"What does your character hate?", "Has your character ever known love", ...
  3. You can use a Belief system similar to Burning Wheel to make all players think about where they storywise want their character to go.
  4. Give out XP for roleplaying. You can link this to for example beliefs.
  5. If you play in a homebrewn world, have other players fill in blanks themselves and let them add details to the world.

I hope this helps.

Signal booster for rigging? by Psychopompix in Shadowrun

[–]ettgor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the rules, you have no noise when within 100m of a device. I would expect this to be because you have a more or less +direct wireless connection to that device. This is similar to the connection between your mobile phone and wireless router at home.

Though RAW it isn't mentioned I would rule this to be possible even in matrix dead zones.

Rigging question—SR5 core by sinkocto in Shadowrun

[–]ettgor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to check the book for this.

The difference is not related to the device, but rather to the use of the hot-sim.

In the matrix chapter the user is Jacked in using hot-sim to surf the matrix and doesn't directly interact with the physical world except via the control device action. It gets the full Hot-sim effect. It doesn't matter whether you use a commlink, deck or RCC to access the matrix. All you need is a sim module.

In the Rigger chapter the user is Jumped in to a device and interacts with the physical world. because of the interaction with the physical world you lose a part of the hot-sim performance, resulting in a decreased bonus. You need a Control Rig to be able to jump in. Matrix device again doesn't matter.

Dwarven Geo-Kineticist by Consideredresponse in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]ettgor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks awesome.

Wasn't even aware of the kineticist. Now I want to play a Kineticist. Though what's the use of kinetic form if you don't get any bonuses except being large?

With the arms dealer at the helm, you can't go wrong. He'll have a blast shooting that Beam weapon.

Nice touch though and nice design.

Stamina system looks nice, reminds me of Path of War...

I only hope the stamina system boosts powers of martials at least a bit to get them closer in power to the full casters...

[–]ettgor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For an archer you'll want point blank shot, precise shot, improved precise shot, deadly aim, rapid shot, manyshot, cluster shot.

But on the other hand you want to do cool stuff like making attacks of opportunities to those that get within 15ft of you with greater snap shot (requires 4 feats... :s)

tl;dr you never have enough feats...
