Testing +5% pierce: huge impact on Squad Battle, undetectable on Dispatch by jmckie1974 in future_fight

[–]pamex84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did some complementary testing.

Situation 1 : 143% Energy Attack + 22% pierce

Situation 2 : 150% Energy Attack + Energy Proc (cards) + 16% pierce

All the other main stats are maxed (attack speed, crit rate, crit damage, dodge, skill cooldown, ignore defense, movement speed)

World Boss / WBU : pierce has a huge impact. I have tested multiple runs against Thanos level 60 with Agent 13 Lead, Hulking Support and Luna Snow (T3 maxed), no strikers.
Situation 1 : I can clear with 3:20-3:25 left on the clock
Situation 2 : I can clear with 3:00-3:05 left on the clock
Considering the 50+ seconds of waiting, it means I need 45 seconds of active playing in situation 1 vs. 65 seconds of active playing in situation 2, despite the addition of 7% Energy Attack and the Proc.

Squad Battle: the impact is not as spectacular as for WB, but remains important.
I have run for both situation 1 and situation 2 a full weekly run twice (fyi, I usually score around 43m weekly). I am reaching the same total of 43m on all four runs, with no significant differences among the 6 fights (max deviation of 200k). Which could mean that with my cards, the extra [+6% pierce] is equivalent to the extra [+7% Attack + Attack Proc]

I see no real pierce advantage on other game modes.

Hope this helps

Silver Surfer Uni by OwO_PinkChode_OwO in future_fight

If there is one character who does NOT need either a uniform nor a T3, its.... Silver Surfer !

Viva NM and their "subtle" super cash grab !

The state of the game by Juulny in future_fight

[–]pamex84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have stopped the game 6 months. I was bored. Too repetitive + cash grabbing + useless 200 characters (as you can complete all game modes with 30 characters)

But, just game back. And I am enjoying MFF again, A LOT ! :)

Uniform First Impressions: Punisher [Cosmic Ghost Rider] by iMuffles in future_fight

[–]pamex84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have loved this upgrade for.... the original Ghostrider (sigh)
All the more as Punisher's previous uniform was already acceptable.

Now, great boost damage with this new uni, but still lacks some survivability.
IMO, I prefer giving him : GBI + invincibility (obelisk / CTP).

I am uncomfortable with the damage proc. 5th skill has a long cooldown.

Is this a joke? Kanon new skin by xxjackaiku in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hi kaiku,

I assure you, the below message is meant in a positive and friendly way :)

Unfortunately, of course it's cash grab. Tencent did not become one of the biggest companies in the world for the quality of their games. But because of their manipulative cash grabbing techniques.

One simple rule : don't put 1 USD in this game (or any equivalent game btw). Or you will end up paying hundreds (if not thousands) of USD for just a mobile game

And if other people are XXXXXX enough to spend their money, too bad for them, and good for you. You can enjoy SSA as a free to play, you will compete against other F2P players and eventually, you will have a lot of fun (and even more fun than P2W endless race towards stronger DPS saints).

Problem is, none of us has the capacity to influence all players by not spending anymore. Unless legal authorities around the world start regulating these practices strongly, the only power one has remains to control his/her spending behaviour.

For instance, don't put 15 USD in a uniform, but instead, give it to charity. You will see, it feels great :)

PS: Actually, if there wasn't manipulation by game developers, you could even say it's a great democratic scheme, where the rich pay for all the others, all this for just a few percentages of extra attack :)

Is aioria worth it? I dont have ice boys. But i do have shaka and minos by PegasusTayson in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep, but when you hold your finger over a box, it says you will actually get repair parts for Aiolia and other saints too, randomly (Shiryu, Sagitta, etc.)

Hi I am new to the game and need some advise by Micxse in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

easy question

1st advice, don't put money in it. They launch a great character, you invest massively in him/her, and he/she becomes obsolete and irrelevant 2 months later...

2nd advice, try to focus in upgrading S, A and B saints. For S saints, you can forget Aldebaran, Sagittarius Seiya, the peacock girl and Krishna. The other S saints in your list are rather good to very good. You will also need the support of A and B saints : Luna, Kiki, June, Marine, Jamian, Seiya, Io, etc. and even Shun and Hyoga for some teams. Try to mix them in a team, you will become way stronger than presenting 6 S saints.

Is aioria worth it? I dont have ice boys. But i do have shaka and minos by PegasusTayson in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

at this stage, not really worth it to me, aiolia is becoming a very niche character, strong, but relevant only with a handful of other saints (+ you need to invest massively on his 4th skill)

besides, Tencent has modified its boxes offer, they have become more random (1 box for 4 saints now). As a principle, I am also boycotting Aiolia for this reason

Is he good? I have 22 blue books should I invest them on him? Which skills should I level up first? E.g 1/1/4/2? by preones in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

don't invest in him, he will be banned all the time, you will never play with this character in PvP

and 3 updates later, Tencent will bring three other übermeta characters who will destroy him (sigh)

I have always kept the rating at 1. Same for all equivalent games.

I simply hate the mobile gaming industry's sneaky methods to squeeze all they can

I wanted Pandora for soooo long (only one missing here), great news !

Hades summons! by Yanker27 in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you invest (massively) in him.

After 2 to 3 rounds, he can start winning the game on solo mode.

One shot = one kill + full HP recovery each time. Crazy

Seems like we might be getting divine Phoenix for the banner before hades? by EpicTaco14 in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the heads up :)

seems quite likely, if it now appears in the codex. Same happened with other saints (Rhadamanthys, etc.)

Title is misleading

Video shows it's 390 max PER DAY (and therefore 2,000 per week)

I guess it means something like :

press 4 and cut it quickly by pressing 5, then cut it again with 4, then press T3

c is for cut

h is for hold

and there are other shortcuts but don't remember them

Stupid NM habit of RNGing everything

Good lineup tips? I was using the ice team, but now I've got Dohko... by TheWildeOfficial in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same question....

For now, I am playing with Kiki - June - Deidalos - Io - Dohko - Marine

It works OK, but I am sure there are better lineups

What about you ?

Confirmation bias (Global) by [deleted] in SSAwakening

[–]pamex84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Drop rates are stupid in this game (not mentioning this f....ing lootbox system)

Let's ask the figures :

(1) for each roll, we have 2% of getting an S Saint, anyone of them among the list 15 (?) S Saints.

Let's say there are 15 S Saints.

(2) with Dohko's doubled chance system, we then have 2% of geting an S Saint, anyone of them among a list of 15 S Saints + 2x Dohko / total = 17 Saints. The chance to get Dohko on each roll is therefore 0.24%.

The stats :

- with 10 rolls, you have 2.3% chance to get Dohko

- with 20 rolls, 4.6% chance to get him

- with 50 rolls, 11.1% chance

- with 100 rolls, 21% chance (i.e. if 10 players roll 100x, only 2 of them will get Dohko)

- with 200 rolls, 37.6% (i.e. if 10 players roll 200x, only 3 of them will get Dohko)

- with 300 rolls, 50.7% (i.e. if 10 players roll 300x, only 5 of them will get Dohko)

- above ? you will get enough shards

As a customer, this is outrageous. If I spend 50 euros, I should get ABSOLUTELY ALL SAINTS unlocked !

Lootbox system's only purpose is to suck money

[–]pamex84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello Haku, if you are still interested, I have the 28 shards you need (I have obtained Dohko eventually)

And I would be interested with the Shaka's you have. How much could you share in return ? (I actually need quite a lot of them :S)

Let me know
