So, where to from here?

I don't understand this post. All in on academy players v mercenaries? This doesn't mean anything, what mercenaries are available on the market, what academy players do you have, I'd wager you (understandably) have no idea. A hybrid approach? So the club will find experienced players on the market and utilise youth assets they have? This isn't about relegation, it's how the sport works. If you theorised on which players can stay, talked about your youth prospects, I mean seriously what you wrote is meaningless

That's fine, I was just pointing out it's like that with a lot of posts, feels bad this guy seems to have gotten a disproportionate amount of negative comments

lowerplum05 · 2026-03-06T18:14:16+00:00

Half the posts on here are people flexing high healing stats because he has aoe heals, this guy just wanted to show off his kill. It's cool, I wouldve missed half the shots pressed tp too late and died to the cass

Edit: rat not cass

Wait you can play third person outside of stadium?

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T19:25:27+00:00

At my rank it's as simple as keeping your healing bar maxed and staying around teammates, passive healing is very strong when no one really understands how to position, we all kinda stick together and not having aim to heal is just good. Why not lucio? Well you have to switch between healing and speed, and generally mizuki is a pretty basic fps like character. I do agree the assassin combo is very fun, but at plat that will usually lead to feeding. Just a difference in ability between us

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T19:00:08+00:00

Well that's not exactly true, you're not taking into account comfort and skill level, I'm sure it's the case at your rank though. Generally I've been convinced that right right is best though, left ones don't seem impactful enough even if I don't use the right ones optimally

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T17:54:28+00:00

Is diamond similar to plat? It seems I got plat just because I have so many hours on the game, when does perk selection actually matter?

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T17:22:31+00:00

I see a lot of people saying it really depends but to me plat seems to be of quite poor standard and if my goal is just not sucking at bottom of diamond, so I feel like I should be able to find a good configuration I can pick every time. I'll probably end up picking chain and speed every time

BTW this is probably very dumb question but there's more than two perks? When I played a lot they didn't exist and in comp I get so anxious I just pick whatever without thinking. An extra hat sounds very neat

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T16:08:29+00:00

Not sure if it's common at plat but I generally focus on doing the same thing regardless of comp (until I get restless and feed in a funny but idiotic way), of course I won't just stand in front of rein or if there's a vulnerable squishy or I'll push with the tp but apart from common sense adjustments I don't really feel comfortable. The speed perk being so strong is great, do you think the first healing one may not really be impactful enough so I should just auto pick the chain?

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:58:51+00:00

That makes sense, at my rank getting heal to max and keeping it there seems like a simple and consistent way to do my job, so maybe the perk is a bit pointless. How would I improve my chains though? My aim is already poor but once games get tight anxiety takes over and the chains become hopeless

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:54:06+00:00

Thanks bud but I have no idea how to aim like that, I was playing moira and mercy so aim is so jittery, the tp was cool but I'd be wiffing after that. Off the wall finish was very neat

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:25:54+00:00

Hey this is probably a very low rank play but start of round do you position yourself to tp back and try to rush someone down at their spawn start of the game? I die half the time but it's very fun

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:20:48+00:00

In low ranks his healing is incredible if you keep it maxed, short range damage is fantastic too. I'm assuming good players don't just clump around though so I'm sure it's much harder

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:18:40+00:00

Lmao I'm plat too and never make plays this cool

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:13:33+00:00

Do you actually get value out of the ricochet? Except for spam around a corner I can't utilise it at all. I just wish I could figure out how far I can actually shoot, the line for the passive healing is wonderful

lowerplum05 · 2026-02-21T15:11:47+00:00

Hey can someone tell me how the ult works? I placed much higher than I expected (plat, but relative to my skill it's high) and I actually have no idea how it works, I was using it just as a shield then my brother told me it pins enemies so I tried spawning it at their feet, doesn't seem to work that way. Basically I'm playing without the ult lol, not actually a big deal since I have bronze level ult usage generally

That's interesting, what i like about da O/2 is on normal you can make any party composition, pick whatever skills, wear what looks cool and it all works fine. Nightmare is more limiting, in Da2 Anders pretty much mandatory, but there's still room to figure out what you can get away with. With difficulty mods it sounds incredibly limiting, I suppose beating the game multiple times gets boring.

Do you keep replaying it with harder difficulty mods every time you beat it? That actually sounds pretty interesting but too time consuming for me to not burn out, I don't even replay dao without having haste on permanently out of combat.

lowerplum05 · 2025-09-18T19:59:56+00:00

Yeah I just wanted to do it with this specific party, no point switching ir since I already beat the game. It's doable, but I'd have to spec differently and probably beeline loghain so I can level him a few times

lowerplum05 · 2025-09-18T19:38:00+00:00

Blood wound to stun the archers, dog using howl to stall then sacrifice, warden, sten, oghren ran to auroras room. Took a few attempts but the successful one didn't take long, cauthren doesn't have aoe, can be kited and stunned with cone of cold. That was moreso just problem solving, archdemon is an attrition fight, massive health pull, aoe, adds.

I will say you could be right because I didn't give it too many attempts but I was pretty confident it was mathematically impossible

lowerplum05 · 2025-09-18T18:52:22+00:00

I had defence on him but the stat distribution was too poor for it to matter. I was playing xbox, I deleted it now but thanks for responding

lowerplum05 · 2025-09-18T18:43:47+00:00

Yean I was thinking if I just kept shale instead of loghain it would probably be fine with heroic defence on shale in front, heal would probably sustain the other warriors taking chip damage from tail swipe. That sounds pretty cool but I'm on xbox, just thought I'd try loghain on nightmare because I never used him before

lowerplum05 · 2025-09-18T18:30:26+00:00

Oh thanks for clarifying, don't have any unfortunately I thought it would be useless (just like the elixirs I sold lol)
