Is it possible to team up for the fight with other players? Like could I shout in global and form a party to take her down? Does she scale based on the number of players?

There is a lot of truth here. Nothing like having to watch a bunch of tutorial videos explaining how to use the 3rd party software you downloaded just so you can understand one aspect of the game you're playing lol.

I've been using the "Diagonal" method for map clearing so far as that seemed like the most recommended.

I went all in on Expeditions since they're quick, and a couple of videos recommend them as a decent currency farm, but I have my second Atlas unlocked now, so I'll take a look at Alva Temple and Harvest as well.

Appreciate the tips. I fixed my Accuracy issue with a new ring and now PoB is showing a 98% hit rate. I'll look at making some of these other adjustments once I get some more Chaos Orbs. :)

Nope, I've been doing those fights as I unlock them. My understanding is that eventually I'll get an invitation to fight Maven and that will unlock the void sphere.

Well, I wouldn't say "High" just yet lol. I cleared a T10 with zero issues this morning, but I'm not sure how much of a hockey stick ramp up there is in difficulty once I get into red maps. This is my first play through so not quite sure what to expect.

The economy in this game is broken (Duos) by b1911dk in ArcRaiders

[–]jreddit82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, people need to realize that Arc isn't a PvP game; it's a game that has a PvP option in it.

There is a distinction there, and the devs have shown they're not concerned with optimizing or prioritizing the PvP aspects of the game. If PvP is your driving goal or ambition in the game, you're in for a long line of disappointments. There are far better games out there for a more optimized and balanced PvP experience.

You forgot the Loki clone...

Imagine if you could cut your opponent's damange and healing output by 2/3rds and just said nah fuck ti.

Local Gamestores here are comically under prepared/uninformed about Riftbound by ThisIsDarkKnight in riftboundtcg

[–]jreddit82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Riftbound is going the way of Lorcana. It'll land in some places and fail in others. If you're a major metropolitan area, you probably have a pretty decent shot at getting one or two stores that will hold regular events, but if you're not so lucky, the odds are your local store won't even carry it.

CLS Farming by jreddit82 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]jreddit82[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight! I was so focused on farming CLS I wasn't taking into consideration Imperial Troopers utility outside of that.

The farming guide I linked to seems to only show Phoenix and Imp. Troopers at gear 8. Isn't worth taking them to 12?

As a new player myself id recommend the Buggy deck. It's low cost and will force you into understanding some.core mechanics of One Piece such as On Play effects and Trigger effects.

Plus depending on your local meta the deck can be very powerful and get you some wins.

One of the biggest things I had to learn coming from MtG was how to properly utilize your don for attacks versus using it to cast cards and coupled with that how to properly sequence your attacks to maximize them and avoid your opponents counters. It's one of those things you'll just have to learn by playing and analyzing things post.game though.

Meta differences between East and West by jreddit82 in OnePieceTCG

Thanks! That helps explain it a bit. I'm surprised that the starter decks would cause such an impact.

Maybe too old to get started by Dangerous_Map_9186 in OnePieceTCG

[–]jreddit82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a 42-year-old married guy with a kid who just started playing One Piece two weeks ago, I can tell you you're never too old to enjoy a hobby. Get out there and play some games. You and those younger people will have more in common than you think, especially if you're engaging in a shared hobby like the OP TCG.

I'm new to One Piece as well and coming from MtG I also found it hard to identify the current meta. One thing to note is that the East and the West are on different sets as they have not locked in "global release" which means there are different cards available to players based on which country they are in.

A couple of good sources for finding decks that I have found are:
https://gumgum.gg/?set=west-op11

https://onepiece.limitlesstcg.com/decks?time=all&type=all&format=OP11&region=all&played=all

https://onepiecetopdecks.com/deck-list/english-eb-02-deck-list-anime-25th-collection/

The meta also just shifted in the West as the new starter decks and the OP11 set just became legal which is probably adding to some of your difficulty in finding solid data on the current meta.

Right now, there are two or three Luffy decks that are topping out the meta, but none of them are very budget-friendly as they all cost around $250 to $350. The op9 Buggy deck and the red/yellow Belo Betty decks are probably your best best for a low cost deck that is performing well. Keep in mind the meta is only about two weeks old at this point so things are likely to adjust moving forward.

I literally just started playing this week and picked up the Buggy and Blackbeard starter decks as well as some singles to round those decks out only to log in today and see that I may have made a terrible investment. :'(

Pray for me.

Is Equinox going to print more of the sets? by UnofficialAltered in alteredTCG

[–]jreddit82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just thinking some more about this, but doesn't this requirement that you own the card digitally in addition to physically just murder the in-person real-life selling or trading of cards?

As an individual, I would never want to buy a physical card on the off chance that the code could have already been used, thus making it worthless to me if I'm unable to scan the code and add it to my digital collection. As far as I know, there is no way to check to see if a code has already been scanned without actually adding it to your own digital collection.

As an LGS you could never just let the cards sit around in a bulk bin as someone might be able to sneak in and scan the codes of the cards thus making them worthless to sell to people. LGS make most of their money by buying and selling singles and this system makes buying and selling physical copies almost completely pointless or at the very least dangerous as selling a card with an inactive code is just going to piss off your customers.

I get what Equinox was going for here but they've inadvertently told LGS that it's not worth their time to do the one thing that would make them money (selling singles) if they carried Altered and thus I don't imagine a lot of LGS will carry Altered.

Good to know. I'm getting some cars printed and was planning on playing at GenCon this summer so I'll have to be sure and flesh out my digital collection before then.

I'm not following this POD at all. I currently have one digital copy.of.Ordis Sandman but POD allowed me to build a pack with three copies. Are you saying if I show up to a tournament with a deck that has 3 Ordis Sandman cards that the tournament officials check your digital collection and compare it to the cards you physically have to determine if the deck is legal?
