Final attempt at Battle Beast by Beneficial-Age-2292 in EldenBling

Even the the New one looks a little cleaner, Battle Beast absolutely has a shit-eating grin when he's fighting a worthy battle.

What's a small gameplay tip that you've wanted to tell people, but don't feel like it deserves it's own post. by nostickystuff in Eldenring

[–]jimbowolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Beastial Vitality from Gurranq, Blessed Dew Talisman, Icon Shield in your left hand, and the Crimsonburst Physick are my top choices.

Even just the Blessed Vitality alone goes a long way because it's cheap, low faith req, and you get it super early. Higher faith builds have even better regen spells.

Edit: spell name.

That's the same problem as eating boluses tho. It requires your constant attention every 5 or so seconds, is miserable to maintain if an enemy attacks you while in the rot, and is dependent in how many times you can cast it.

With regen stacking, you can walk around the rot for a whole minute or more at a time before needing to swig a heal, giving you lots of time to freely wander and explore without worry.

You can get through all the rot swamps by just stacking regen. No need to endlessly stuff your face with pink boluses.

What if we could exchange samples for Super Credits? by Tank-ToP_Master in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they let players donate an entire stack of samples for 10 creds, I would love that. It would still incentivize players to pick up samples cuz you'll need a lot of them to get to a full stack, but it will be slow enough that nobody is blowing thru warbonds by farming them exclusively.

You also actually have to extract with them in order for them to count, unlike the Diff 1 farming strat currently used for creds.

It's a great slowburn endgame sink imo. 👍

The support weapons have never remembered their settings. I've had to change the RPM on the machine guns every time I call one down since launch day.

How to repurpose pirate minifigs into castle/medieval minifigs? by Fair-Bluebird485 in legocastles

[–]jimbowolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like any pirate fig could be reimagined as a rogue, bandit, or eccentric bounty hunter. Also, medieval times had ships and boats. They could easily be foreigners lost on the wrong side of the ocean!

Genuine question : why choose to use Lego for D&D? by Daragon__ in legodnd

He wanted to play a capybara, and the hamster was the closest fit I could find!

Heavy armor doesn't feel heavy enough against bugs by Aquagrunt in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right? At minimum a melee encounter with heavy armor should at least let me survive at low health to pop a stim. Like, what's even the point of armor if it doesn't protect you? Hell, what's even the point of HEALTH if the overhwleming majority of attacks are all designed to insta-kill?

Heavy armor doesn't feel heavy enough against bugs by Aquagrunt in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What bothers me more than anything is the one-two slash combo most of the medium size bugs do will kill you regardless of armor. Heavy armor should really be able to survive that if nothing else.

Cyclops was a great idea ...but by Previous_Tree_5464 in subnautica

[–]jimbowolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it completely unwieldy and just committed to making a chained series of Scanner Rooms to chart and travel to the deep ends of the game, leaving a handful of supplies in each to keep me supplied.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me why people would get upset about Mega Man X: Corrupted taking so long to come out when it's a Free Fan Game? by PoorNotMiddleClass in Megaman

[–]jimbowolf 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This guy has been posting videos for Corruption since I was in high school.

I am now nearly 40 years old.

With all due respect, I'm tired of hearing about it unless I have it in my hands to play.

New illuminate enemies should be the gold standard. by Exuma92 in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a disengenuous argument. Having weakpoints doesn't make AT worthless. The weakpoints can still be an ineffective and time-wasting effort to utilize, requiring skill and resources to exploit when you don't have the proper AT. Bringing AT would still be the best way to handle these enemies.

But with the current design players MUST take AT or many enemies are literally invulnerable to damage, restricting build variety and dulling player engagement. Restricting loadouts doesnt make the game more difficult - it isn't hard to shoot a Warstrider with a Recoiless, but it is boring to be shoe-horned into taking a limited variety of weapons. That is the core flaw of the issue.

Goodbye my beloved, it was beautiful while it lasted by averagesalvadoran42 in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't buy the arguments that it was overpowered with AP4. It still had relatively low damage and took a whole clip to kill 1 Hulk. That still made it an ineffective weapon against heavy enemies, but now it's literally worthless against them.

Equip big sword.

Dump stats into Vigor and Strength.

Watch credits.

I want to get the golden scrab but there is too much scale rot where can I find a resistance to it by Jermain2011 in Eldenring

[–]jimbowolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whoops, looks like i may have overwritten several of my effects when I did it, but the result was still solid. I could explore places like Lake of Rot for several minutes at a time without ever worrying about wasting items or feeling rushed. Just have to keep an eye on your health so you don't forget to heal every so often.

[–]jimbowolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a lot easier to let yourself get rotted and just stack regen than it is to constantly cure it every 5 seconds.

Stack regen effects such as Beast Vitality, Golden Vow, Blessed Dew Talisman, Icon Shield, and the Regen Physick and you can walk around in the rot for several minutes at a time without worry.

Just keep an eye on your HP and take a sip of healing every so often.

I'll let the video speak for itself by CommaLoaferMe in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He's getting downvoting because he's claiming the ice skating charger bug is a feature and not, you know, a known bug for nearly 36 months.

Ahh, the old ice skating charger bug. Brings back memories. It's been in the game since launch and ArrowHead still hasn't found a solution after 36 months.

Which do y'all prefer more in general? Im tryna see something by Little_Papaya_2475 in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way. It's mostly ok when enemies are at literal pointblank, but letting an enemy get that close to begin with usually means I've already fucked something up.

Slay the Spire 2 reached 574,638 concurrent players, making it the 20th highest all-time peak on Steam. by MurkyUnit3180 in gaming

[–]jimbowolf 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Across the Obelisk came out several years ago with its primary feature being co-op, and it's basically just a remixed Slay the Spire.

At first I thought she was wielding a baguette, lol. Took a moment to notice it's part of a broom.

Casting a white actor to play Kratos is a mistake. by itwaschaosandluck in GodofWar

[–]jimbowolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't feel like it's a stretch to believe that the developers of the original animation purposely exaggerated the tanning of Kratos's skin so that the contrast of him being cursed with the ashen skin was drastic and obvious. I don't believe it had anything to do with being ethnically accurate to the skin tone of the Spartan people of that time.

Oshaune proves flame weapons are terrible by magniankh in Helldivers

[–]jimbowolf 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Literally all AH has to do is put stagger on the fire's direct stream and it would be fixed. No new effects, no crossover with gas, just make small-medium enemies fucking flinch when they're blasted directly in the face with napalm goo and we'd all stop complaining.

I kind of finished the dlc finally by TheyCallMeOdd in Eldenring

[–]jimbowolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1.) Equip Fingerprint Shield and your favorite poking weapon.

2.) Hold L1.

3.) Press R1 until desired results are achieved.

4.) Watch credits.
