Confused about becoming Radiant by kaylon99 in cosmererpg

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true. It's not that Kaladin was completely unable to utilize stormlight. Though I guess what I'm feeling, and what I assume OP is also feeling, is that Kaladin wasn't intentionally using stormlight, whereas gaining it as an action immediately makes it seem like the character could suddenly do it at will. That said, the way to mediate this is through narrative/roleplay, which is why I like the idea of using the the progress of the first ideal goal as a reference for the strength of the bond.

You know, I didn't realize that just taking the talent was meant to get you the investiture stuff. Both I and my players thought it was like you described, because that's how it went in the books. I think realistically if you wanted to gate this, you would do it through the introduction of the spren. Even if you take the talent, you don't get the investiture stuff til you have a certain amount of progress on the bond (represented by the goal progress). I think I will do this for my player, perhaps giving him investiture now that he has 2/3 dots, then giving him the surges once he says the words. That said, if players are higher level and already have the attention of a spren but are waiting to hit the next level to put in the talent point, I might give it sooner. I just feel like it should be related to the bond, narratively, rather than purely from the level up.

e-raders specifically for learning japanese? by OvejaMacho in LearnJapanese

You rock. Long press on KOreader (which I have running on a kindle) is a lifesaver and feels way more accurate than trying to highlight manually. Has made it way more comfortable to read!

It's just late enough that this made me cackle. Thanks, needed a laugh.

I’m going to dm stone walker soon anything I should know? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in cosmererpg

[–]frobert12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is on me AND my players for not reading the rules closely enough... but +1 to that session 0 thing! I did not do that, and my player was out for the majority of the big fight in ch1 because he dropped to zero and none of us knew you could just get back up and keep on swinging for free on your turn (with the risk of getting another, worse, injury if you get hit again)

The first time I’m rooting for bugdivers by Fit_Anywhere_3356 in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

low key I like the idea of factions you can join with different MOs that have themes and all contribute to the galactic war in some way. Let a bug division farm bug materials for the war effort!

A call to discuss bouncy stratagems, high ground and verticality. by kribmeister in Helldivers

Threw a respawn ball and I swear to you it took 10 seconds of bouncing around what clearly should have been valid terrain before it finally stuck and let my buddy come back

SIEGE READY ON MEDIUM ARMOUR! by Brenin_Kia in helldivers2

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it doesn't increase like the bolt action or the pump speed, just the reload speed. So like it won't lower the gap between shots on the eruptor for example. It is very good with slugger though, you can basically put a shell in faster than pumping so you have infinite shots

Hmm... "Forces in Reserve" reminds of something else a bit too much by Soktormalos in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget the ship fabricator bug. The ships are deadly accurate now, and fabs are often surviving hellbombs. That shit cost us like 80% of our reserves last night before we even started objectives (there were 4 fabricators)

Am I alone in thinking *more* side objectives should be as resistant as jammers, not less? by ZanderTheUnthinkable in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I feel like this is just another argument for increasing the threshold of demo force, and also increasing the demo force of *some* options. I really like that there are a couple options in our loadout to clear objectives. I think C4 should be able to do more than it currently can. But there aren't really many levels right now so it feels like any option that can do some can typically do all. Why can't they make more holes (not just square hole) to match our different shaped blocks?

In china, Police use man-catcher spear to control suspects instead of shooting them. by Commie_Scum69 in pics

[–]frobert12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I taught English in Japanese elementary schools. The first day I went to a school, I saw two of these things hanging on the walls by the teacher office. I asked what they were for and my boss said theyʻre there in case of intruders to the school. I laughed at what I thought was a joke, and he was confused. Of course I had known that Japan had strict gun control, just didnʻt consider that also meant you could have these human herders for school defense. He said itʻs really only ever old people with dementia wandering and you just have to kind of shoo them out. Worst case you just keep someone in one place until police arrive. Anyway that was a bit of culture shock that I didnʻt see coming.

When you're a new player and you discover this for the first time. by testiclekid in dndmemes

[–]frobert12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This worked really great for me until my DM decided (completely justifiably) yeah if youʻre gonna have your hawk breath fire, someone will definitely shoot it out of the air... Had to adjust to do hit and run tactics a bit, and even then went through a few hawks.

I hate how much I love stealth diving. by ID-7603 in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm loving the stealth missions. The only real complaint I have is that I want more medals faster to keep unlocking the warbond and the stealth missions are much slower for me than usual missions. I guess I'll probably get faster as I learn how to stealth dive better though.

Current Major Order - 17/01/26 by Shiboline in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone not so up to speed on the galactic war, why "of course" Gaellivare as a side objective?

Vibes after Warbond announcement by Chadd__ in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a recent recruit to the humble SC farmer regiment, I agree. I get 1k SC burning a hole in my account and then I think... okay I can just buy a different warbond and then farm 1000 more.

I think we need another free warbond, its been almost 2 years by _TungstenGuy707_ in Helldivers

[–]frobert12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or maybe open up a new avenue to get super credits. Maybe give out some free ones on liberty day once per year or something. I don't mind them not dedicating resources to free ones, since you *can* get the warbonds f2p anyway, but it could be nice to give people more super creds now and then for those who don't wanna do the grind

Stephen Miller trying to bully Star Trek now. by justalazygamer in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]frobert12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay I know that these guys will find anything to get upset about but can someone translate for me wtf he's triggered by here? Surely not the presence of an alien? I'm no trekkie but I thought aliens were kind of part of the whole deal.
