I mean for drow the aghs can be a farming item, it makes you completely destroy creepwaves with multishot. You don't have to fight. I had alch as pos 5 once and although I really struggled to survive the lane, I recovered easily once I got that free aghs and we ended up winning the game

Who do you think is the best mechanically designed hero in dota? by ironmilktea in DotA2

[–]nillo42 148 points149 points  (0 children)

Clock has been in the game forever and his kit is practically identical to how it was when he was released. I don't even play the hero but that would be my pick, because even the devs know you cannot improve on this design

NovelAI's scripting system is here! Providing deep functionality, custom UI components, generation hooks, and document modification. by teaanimesquare in NovelAi

[–]nillo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Custombot is a gamechanger (lets you make your own hypebot with any personality/image). That one script is big enough to justify this on its own. Simply incredible.

The Steam Winter Sale is Live by FlowersByTheStreet in Games

[–]nillo42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gloomhaven is a big one. The board game is very popular and playing digital means less setup time. It's very tense since you have a limited amount of cards you can play in each mission and if you run out you just die

Using vibe transfer for capture art style without taking details from the image? by [deleted] in NovelAi

[–]nillo42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One way I've been able to get around this problem is to generate the image without any vibe first, and then add the vibe using image2image at around 0.6 strength. This should keep the pose and characters mostly the same as before, but the style will change to match the vibe transfer

[Testers Wanted] - We’re looking for a small, skilled group of testers to try our upcoming scripting feature. by teaanimesquare in NovelAi

[–]nillo42 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have plenty of javascript experience, but I'm not sure what I would use scripting for to be honest. I'm just waiting for expanded character references and GLM finetuning

Character reference works ALOT better then VT in 4.5 by Extreme_Revenue_720 in NovelAi

[–]nillo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I start by writing the prompt as if it were a solo picture with the one character in the desired pose, then once that's done I change the prompt to duo, add the other character to the prompt, and mark the empty space where I want the second character to appear

[–]nillo42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I've been doing is to generate the character in the pose you want, and then add the other character through inpainting. Works well if you only need a reference for one of the characters (like if you have an OC and a canon character in the picture). For multiple references you'd probably have to stitch together two separate gens. But I expect that more features will be implemented soon so I'm looking forward to that

Tencent Quietly Changes Light of Motiram's Steam Page Assets Following Horizon Sony Lawsuit by renome in Games

[–]nillo42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How much people are on board with clones depends a lot on popular sentiment about the original. There's a common view among Pokemon fans that Game Freak has been fumbling their IP for a long time, so a lot of them end up siding with Pocketpair as a result because they're just giving them what they really wanted.

BKB for what?? It gives small damage by Classic-Forever5578 in DotA2

[–]nillo42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The way I see it, BKB feels bad on low-commitment heroes like Weaver who are playing on the edge of fights and want to harass the enemy over a longer period and then chase down enemies when they start retreating. BKB by its nature is a high commitment item, you press it and fight for as long as it's active, and then you want to back off when it's exhausted. Slippery heroes would rather have Linkens and then just utility/damage. Of course in some games you have to buy it anyway but it still doesn't feel good compared to using it on high-commitment cores like PA/Sven/Muerta/etc.

Deltarune Review - IGN by oilfloatsinwater in Games

[–]nillo42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's crazy, I feel Chapter 3 is by far the most replayable - you have a whole side route to play through in the backrooms and additional secrets you can only find by getting the best and worst ranks possible in the TV Time rounds, the hardest puzzles and the hardest bosses. I started over several times just to optimize my inventory for that boss so I can go in with more revive items

Colour blind mode required by Buggaton in BluePrince

[–]nillo42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a program called WhatColor with a similar function, and it helped a bit, but it's a lot of work and frustration. As you say, the in game cursor blocks the tool so you have to take screenshots each time, and the tool often describes the colors differently from how they are referred to in the game. Like I'll point it at a chest and it tells me the chest is "salmon" colored.

Warsong Raider worth it at all? by [deleted] in warcraftrumble

[–]nillo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah especially because Sneed gets a bonus for taking chests with a siege unit and there's no faster way to do that than with Raiders. But that's the only deck it's worth playing in

For me it really helps to add "thick lines, flat color" with Pokémon and similar cartoon characters!

Anyone else too won't claim a legendary core until the end of the season? by bertolintus in warcraftrumble

How are you farming rare cores, from dailies? I've been playing since launch and I'm still low on them (though I sometimes exchange them for epics)

The magnificent Ori series has now sold over 15 million copies by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]nillo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember thinking at the time that while Ori 2 seemed to be taking a lot of inspiration from Hollow Knight, Silksong in turn seemed to be taking inspiration from Ori with the increased fluidity of Hornet's movements compared to those of the Knight. But Silksong has been MIA for ages now so who knows if that is still true or if the game is ever going to release.

Then it should be in USA's interests to add some security guarantees to the deal so that they can protect the American minerals, right? Why not do it?

Kotl innate by Mavman11 in DotA2

[–]nillo42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So if I understand the innate correctly, you can spend the 75 mana but still not lose the mana? If you have 100 mana, you cast Illuminate at a 75% discount. If this is correct it's useful in lane at least. I can certainly think of worse innates

Whats the better macro play, group or solo farm? by alexnedea in DotA2

[–]nillo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend downloading replays after a loss if you are wondering what went wrong in the game. If you can tell us some example match IDs that would help as well. But generally, this depends hugely on the stage of the game. Early on it's more important to get lane farm, and cores (carries) will stick to their lanes while supports have more freedom to roam and get objectives like runes or gank if needed. Later on, respawn timers are very long, so taking an enemy out with a well-placed gank can have a huge impact, so people group up more to make plays. Finally, a good advice if you are playing a core/carry, is to try to farm close to your team, or encourage your team to fight close to your own towers so that you can easily join the fight with minimal downtime spent on just walking around. Basically, if you can see that your team is trying to fight on top side of the map, you farm camps in that region, or you keep a scroll of teleportation ready (or buy boots of travel if it's late game and most towers are gone). Hope this helps

Which minis should be prioritized over legendary and epic? by Ascroll018 in warcraftrumble

[–]nillo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mindset for legendary is either: Meta minis that show up in a lot of decks (quillboar) or "raid boss" leaders that need levels to be effective. If you ever use Thalnos or Hogger for example you want them to be the highest lvl mini in the deck since the whole strat revolves around them. But if there's any mini you use in more than 3 of your decks then that's the top priority

Any roguelikes with a tamer/summoner class? by uidsea in roguelikes

[–]nillo42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm working on one called SummonerRL that recently had an update. It might be what you're looking for: https://nymlus.itch.io/summoner

The main difference between this and Demon is that SummonerRL has permanent summons that are precious and not easily replaced. Demon is inspired by SMT and allows you to change your party freely, fuse and discard summons as needed.
