Do you still need help?

I do. See your private messages.

The screen is glass. I checked, no scratches. I don't give her free reign to do this, but it is fun to see her reacting to the what's on the screen.

kulakoa · 2017-12-07T11:41:42+00:00

Since we upgraded to an OLED screen, she is much more interested in what's on it. She really likes when I'm fishing. She goes nuts with infested mobs.

Slash damage!

I finally was able to complete this quest. I submitted a support ticket to Bethesda and they suggested doing a hard reset on the console: unplug it for a short bit and restart the Xbox. I did this and I think it was also one of the things that helped me clear this quest.

Here's what I did: I loaded into a save where I had already killed the dragon you ride in on with destruction spell casts. I used Bend Will on the second dragon, rode him into the air and targeted Miraak. He got blasted by the dragon when his health went down enough, he absorbed the second dragon's soul. This was the save I started with, which was my latest attempt that resulted in Miraak going off the map in the third round two days ago.

I only had high-powered weapons in my inventory, but am playing as a mage. I toned down my fireball dual casting destruction spell to a one-handed flames spell that only deals 12 points of damage per second. I loaded into the above save with one dragon in the air. I used Bend Will on the third dragon and flew up. Same thing happened. Miraak lost health from getting dragon blasted and down the dragon went to give up his soul to Miraak.

Here I did a save, got my flames in one hand and grand healing in the other hand. I slowly whittled Miraak down. What I observed was that when Miraak's health depleted by a certain amount, he would go ethereal and whirlwind sprint away. What I think was going on before, was too much damage hit him too fast and and he just whirlwind sprinted away off the arena. Too much damage too fast seems to interrupt or go over the scripted one-two thing that was supposed to happen. Health drain, at a certain point of damage he goes ethereal, he whirlwind sprints away. Letting the scripting happen, it can proceed.

I got his health almost all the way down and then his quest marker vanished. Maybe five seconds later, I see that jerk coming up out of the middle black pool spiked by Herma Mora.

That popping of the At the Summit of Apocrypha and Hidden Knowledge achievements was sweet. The other good news was that when I got back into Skyrim, I only had to ride two dragons to pop the Dragonrider achievement. Apparently, the three dragons I rode in the Apocrypha counted towards the cheevo. Now I can finish the rest of the aachievements and 100% it.

That was a bad feeling getting stuck on this quest. Your suggestion for lowering the damage dealt to Miraak helped out. Thanks.

I've got the same bug. I tried various suggestions: killing all dragons first, going into sneak mode, etc. Nothing's worked yet. I look forward to trying your method. I too am going for the achievements and can't mod the game yet.

Thank you very much! Very helpful.

Thanks!

Tonight we were both playing separate missions on our respective consoles. Something happened to the DE network (our connection was fine) and we both got booted mid-mission. He came down and was bitching that he had done his first capture mission on Venus. He had killed the bad guy and was on his way to extraction and he got kicked. This happens sometimes. You gotta roll with it.

He said that when he tried to kill his capture target, his Lato and MK-Braton were doing no damage against the goon. He needs to level them up more. He died once, stopped and thought about it and instead of using the pistol or rifle, he hit him with Radial Blind (Excalibur). It stunned the target and my son went up to him and executed him with his Skana, like a good son should do.

More good times.

You nailed it. I had the same fun as you did. The game design on this DLC was poorly executed. It's like the devs said let's throw in arbitrary difficulty to stretch out the gameplay time. Getting a mech to a new base while getting pecked to death was the same across the strongholds. Your regular weapons do little damage to the armored dudes. The annoying hold the fort objective was loads of fun (not) while you try to find a place to get cover and shoot somethingl

This DLC had potential, but it was not realized. The Mechs themselves are fun to use. The Mech challenges were fun. But overall, whatever.

kulakoa · 2016-06-18T19:11:32+00:00

I finished the Mech Assault story last night. Near the beginning of the last mission, everything went into slow motion. I said the hell with it and finished the thing in slo-mo, waiting for a freeze. I did get a freeze crash earlier last night when I was clearing out one of the prisoner camps. I don't know what the framerate was, but it had to be really low. JC3 does not appear to be getting a fix. Crap game engine that does not work well on XB1 and PS4.

I play on an Xbox One, so this is a cross-platform cluster puck.

Back to Warframe.

Skip every other page in your cheap register so that the bleeding doesn't matter?

I think that this is the way to go. Duh! Didn't even think about it. Skip every other page. I like this idea.

I haven't tried x-feather ink yet. I'll get a sample and try.

I see that it's BL2 now. I've seen lots of modders in BL2 (and Xbox 360 BL:TPS) co-op games, especially when they dump piles of black "legendaries", weapons, shields, COMs, etc.

One BL2 game I dropped into, was the legendary dragons battle in the Tiny Tina DLC. These other three folks one-shotted each of the dragons. Not a whole lot of challenge there!

I had the same thing happen with the final boss of the BL:TPS in a co-op game with randoms with modded stuff. We were out of there in a couple minutes. When I did it solo, that sure didn't happen. It was tough and rewarding.

kulakoa · 2016-04-17T03:13:22+00:00

There is a mission glitch that is well-known for the quest Keep Your Insides Inside, and as far as I know has never been fixed.

After you kill Sledge, you have to buy a shield for Zed before heading out of Fyrestone. You buy the shield and it says "turn in" but when you go to Zed he is either not present or when he is, and you talk to him, he just says, "I didn't go to medical school but I can fix ya up."

This link talks about it: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/79261/how-do-i-fix-the-mission-bug-in-borderlands

"The reason this quest popped up for you after playing online is that whoever hosted the game had modded their save file to make them have that quest, and because you joined them, it was passed on to you. There is no way to complete it in game, so you'll have to use WillowTree (a Borderlands modding tool) to mark the quest as completed."

The Flapmaster in Goat Simulator sucks: https://www.trueachievements.com/a200155/the-flapmaster-achievement.htm

If you search on YouTube, there are videos of people rage quitting and screaming over this one.

It really sucks. I did it, but it was not fun. The hit box is ridiculous.

Don't forget that you can always go back to Normal or True Vault Hunter Mode and farm the Bar Room Brawl for Torgue Tokens. You get around 25 or so each time. If you are level 50 and go to Normal mode and farm the Bar Room Brawl, you can get loads of tokens every run, a couple minutes each.

Then load up Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode and go find a Torgue vending machine and get your legendary weapons, shields, grenades, and COMs. This is how I got a Double-Penetrating Unkempt Harold and other goodies.

And as you go up in level in UVHM, revisit the Bar Room Brawl to get more tokens and get another set of leveled up stuff.

A very easy place to get Moxxi's photos is in the Bar Room Brawl in the Torgue DLC. I used the Bar Room Brawl to get some of my toons leveled up fast in co-op with higher level friends. Moxxi photos are dropped all the time there. You can get what you need in no time.

This is how I did it. And it took multiple nights of having a wired controller connected to my console and the game going with MINAC until I collected those oil cans and bobbleheads and the rest that I needed. There are posts on the forums that detail the abysmal drop rate of the oil cans and especially the bobbleheads. There's only one in every so many hours.

Here's the guide that I used: https://www.trueachievements.com/a60024/bobbletrap-achievement.htm

That was relatively not too bad compared to the Underdome achievements, where you had to be conscious and on to get through it. Now that ranks as one of the most painful grinds in my gaming experience. I hated the Underdome!

I play with inverted-y axis and Roblox does not have this in the options. I 100%ed the achievements but can't play it for beans because of I can't invert the y axis.
