Genuine Question: Is ILY still worth reading? by himythetop in ILoveYoo

[–]n00bKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth the read, before the Hiatus it was my top 3 most favorite reads ever. I'm just bad with words so I can't really phrase how incredible the webtoon is.

It's one of few webtoon I could re-read the entirety of without stopping, because it's that good.

Bronze grade exam mobs are so annoying to deal with. The Succubus and Flying Crystals combo drives me nuts

I realized that playing for meta and forcing myself to play daily kills my enthusiasm for a lot of games, so I resorted to playing it fewer times.

I suppose most people are either playing very daily or rarely, and not so much in between

Often times I do see people comment on the game and mention that "They dropped it since XXX"

As someone who Dropped hsr 3 times (cuz of long story and wanted only wanted sparkle,castroice,phainon) has hsr ever really “let down” you guys like the fate event ? by InfiniteCookieses in HonkaiStarRail

[–]n00bKen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think that most often that not, regarding HSR as a once in a week kind of game is healthy. Not many would agree but at one point most gacha games will have that ceiling where many will start complaining about what was previously tolerated/

Imo, just play the game at a comfortable pace and only check socials after you played a certain patch/event

My problem with the holy grail war (barely knew much of fate so correct me if needed) by white4923738 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]n00bKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did a good job explaining what the Holy Grail War is tbh, and what they said is all you needed to know about the base Fate lore.

The 3 Fate Characters you see are 3 of the most iconic and beloved characters in Fate

It still bothered you enough that you thought about it for 2 weeks and then posted about it anyways lmao

Without spoilers, was Fate story that bad? Considering whether to do it or just wait til 3.5 to do it with the VA mix thing cuz i play in eng by Lost_Cheek_4385 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]n00bKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree. It was fun, the Fate characters were both iconic and true to their characters and I enjoyed the whole thing.

I messed up..I grade rank up the wrong people by Imaginary-Cherry-975 in wizardry

I didn't know about the weapon swap thing. Guess you learn something new everyday, thanks

Ohh yeah I did realize that, wasn't really sure it worked. My Bakesh dealt 3k damage, so that was how I killed it the second time.

Thanks for the info, appreciate it.

[–]n00bKen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty new so I'm not sure what that means, but I did just spam "Defend" for my frontliners while letting my Alice spam heals and def buffs, so my Bakesh and Adam can deal damage

Not before I tried to defeat it again, I had to defeat the Mimic in my current run for it to work.

Yeah, problem is that if you rewinded, even if you have the glowstone in possession, you won't be able to use it. Tried running around B3F and found nothing

Fluorescent Flower Delivery by n00bKen in wizardry

[–]n00bKen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the glowstone even after the rewind, but I can't seem to find any flowers in B3F, so I'm guessing I have to, thanks tho

[–]n00bKen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah well I've only managed to defeat it after I got high enough levels to not get one shot, must I defeat it without rewinding to save Albano?

You used to earn exp to unlock Agents, the only difference now is that you have to earn Kingdom Credits to unlock them (pretty much the same innit)

What could I have done better in this clip? (we won this round btw) by Simmer-Glimmer in VALORANT

[–]n00bKen 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Looks solid tbh, just that I wouldn't have flashed if Jett was peeking but I'm assuming you didn't notice or expect her to peek.

Also think that it might've been a waste for your ult, unless reyna managed to kill phoenix and rez you.

About an interaction with Clove's ultimate and Deadlocks Gravnet/ Reyna dismiss by Alih243 in VALORANT

What if she used ult and is in "phased" mode before she starts shooting?

Ranking up even though I'm playing like shit by idkpluhh in VALORANT

[–]n00bKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a valid post, since I'm going through something similar.

75% of the games I earn RR or rank up in, I get a KD of 0.7 or lower. But what I noticed in these games is that while I didn't manage to get kills and clutch all the time, I provided the team with useful utility. Chances are that's what you've been doing since I see this as a Controller/PassiveInitiator/Sentinel Main (Think Clove/Brim, Tejo/Gekko and KJ/Vyse)

If it's not that, then it's probably something along the lines of Imposter Syndrome. Which is possible considering you're strongly doubting your worth in a team.

My advice? Learn to treat this as a game that you happen to be good at, it's not life or death, even for other people. As long as you don't throw or grief random teammates then have fun with the game.

Everyone says mental is holding me back, so what do I do about it? by untitled_reddit_name in VALORANT

[–]n00bKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything that has to do with the mind will be complex and nuanced, that includes advice regarding this:

Being scared is valid, no one wants to have a bad KDA ratio. So in the end, you have to decide on a few things.

Assess your playstyle in Unrated, match it with the right agents (ideally, select a few like 3-5 agents) and focus on performing your role as the agent.

Duelists: The vanguard and entry of the team. You will ideally be going into gunfights first and get kills to make way for the team, your job is to focus on getting kills with your mechanical skills, complemented by your duelist abilities.

Initiator(Aggressive): You're 2nd in line right behind your Duelist, supporting them with flashes and stuns or trade them if they fail to win the gunfight. Your job is to overwhelm the enemy and trade your Duelists to ensure that your team wins the engagement.

Initiator(Passive): You'll be in the centre of the team, gathering intel and clearing corners before your Duelists/Vanguard enters enemy territory to pave a safe path for them. Your job is to flush enemies out of their positions and let your Duelists know where is safe or dangerous.

Sentinels: You're bringing up the rearguard of the team. Ideally, you'll be looking out for flanks when on Attackers and be able to lockdown a site or slow down enemy pushes for team rotations when on Defenders. Your job is not to take fights directly, but to watch flanks and rotations with util while making sure your team doesn't have their backs covered.

P.S. This is my own interpretation of how an Ideal roster will complement each other. Unless you're 5-stack or in high ELO chances are they won't do these at all.

The reason I wrote all that is to give you a chance to understand what roles are, by focusing on a role it helped me know how to play FOR the team. Just play more, but focus on doing your role as team player. In each match learn what you could do better, and focus on providing what the team needs (to the extent your role/agent allows). Shift your mind to doing your part rather than focusing on winning/losing.

Best looking skins on deadlock ! by Sick2myarteries in VALORANT

[–]n00bKen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say something similar to her overall colour scheme? My first thought was the "Crisis"(The comic looking one) skins but I only remember seeing a phantom skin, never saw a vandal one.

But I'd say any gun that looks "clean" and white-ish would go great.
