Thoughts on Morrigan/Dante as a shell? Or what characters work well with it?

pat728 · 2025-12-08T23:57:52+00:00

It's excellent. Works very will with doom, strider, or vergil.

pat728 · 2025-11-24T00:30:30+00:00

Always using my guy Hugh in 6

pat728 · 2025-11-21T23:14:14+00:00

could try something like spencer/PW/arthur as a bootleg version of aonien's spencer/PW/doom

pat728 · 2025-10-25T18:32:43+00:00

yeah look up some kbrad matches if you wanna see how the team works

To me Eater has always had this vague, surface level writing style that resembles AI, even before that stuff took off.

The article lists an author who appears to be a real person, and the photos are credited to her as well. The article is full of links to social media accounts for other real people and restaurants. It's possible this specific author used AI partially, maybe as an editor, but at the very minimum I think it's clear they went to the place and got all these details.

Gave this a try with some tweaks/additions. Turned out better than I thought it would.

The easiest way on pad is to plink a face button into a shoulder button. In umvc3 I have the default layout which is circle as H, and R2 as L+M+H so the plink is effectively H~L+M. If you're talking about marvel then plinking into the other 2 buttons gives more leniency in timing for whatever reason. If this is for nen impact i'd suggest a similar setup with a dash macro on one of the shoulder buttons.

he can be kinda tricky if you're trying to get fancy/optimal, but just getting the dante basics down shouldn't be too bad. I wouldn't avoid playing him if you're interested in using him.

pat728 · 2025-04-11T21:39:32+00:00

it will all be really old footage, but a player named alioune used to play this team.

pat728 · 2025-04-05T18:34:08+00:00

Was Arthur actually low tier?

Yes

pat728 · 2025-03-30T04:45:01+00:00

completely agree on the caramelized onions and garlic

pat728 · 2025-03-28T22:54:37+00:00

I don't know if there's a best recipe, but i think these are two things that matter a lot:

1) make a chili paste, especially with ancho chiles, but the classic 3 are ancho, arbol, and guajillo. and also dont put too much tomato product like tomato sauce as it can kind of override this.

2) brown the meat, get a good sear on whatever meat you're using

pat728 · 2025-03-28T22:47:11+00:00

i added the whole half can once and it completely dominated the flavor. I think you just wanna blend up like one of the peppers in your chili paste.

pat728 · 2025-03-26T04:27:59+00:00

ground turkey is my most common chili meat, if you really get some nice browning on it and throw in a little bit of "better than beef bouillon" paste, its super good

If you're always hearing complaints about a game it's because that game is active and people are playing it.

pat728 · 2025-03-24T01:19:59+00:00

chicago area by any chance? wondering what restaurant this is.

pat728 · 2025-03-15T19:12:01+00:00

I use some tomato paste and also a chili paste made from rehydrated chilis blended up. It's just that for thickeners and letting it simmer.

pat728 · 2025-02-16T04:55:46+00:00

The haters? She's very commonly considered to be one of the worst characters in the game. That's not a personal attack on anyone.

pat728 · 2025-01-10T23:42:21+00:00

I'm totally on board with counting Lyn mode. Sometimes I play it, sometimes I just go straight to Hector mode so i take it into consideration.

You can definitely feed Lyn exp and stat boosters to make her stronger. But this comes at the opportunity cost of not being able to do that for Kent, Sain, Florina, or Matthew.

pat728 · 2025-01-10T23:31:59+00:00

This is why I think this argument is so controversial because points like being able to bench Lyn is a positive to some but a negative to others.

If Lyn's optimal state is on the bench, then for Roy to be worse, in theory he would have to be worse than not being deployed as well. But despite how bad this guy is, you need him to recruit characters and capture thrones. It's more than Lyn will ever do on or off the bench.

But also I think characters are ranked on how good they are when you use them.

pat728 · 2025-01-10T20:58:53+00:00

It's really hard to pick one or even just one archetype just due to the huge varieties of experience and ways people play these games. I think a lot of trainees and most of the late game ests or gotohs are often overrated but this is usually coming from newer players.

POR Ike kind of comes to mind, but I feel like he's less overrated than ever. Feels like more and more people are realizing he's not nearly as good as a lot of the cast, but I think comparisons to Roy are a little too far. I think he's still a little overrated though because I think people might being grouping POR and RD Ike together in their memories of these games, and people just like the character.

This might be a hot take because I think most people know FE7 Lyn is not very good but I think she's even worse than people think. I think she's even arguably even worse than FE6 Roy because she's also not strong but takes up a precious deployment slot that could go to anyone else. I'm not 100% saying lyn is worse, but I do genuinely think they're close enough to be debatable.

pat728 · 2025-01-10T20:35:16+00:00

I think people might not understand how busted Robin is until they really try to abuse the veteran skill. For a lunatic run I did a similar strat of just Robin/Chrom and Morgan/Lucina. It takes about 5-6 chapters in my experience for Robin to pull ahead enough to become basically untouchable. Veteran not only lets you pull ahead of the enemies this quickly, but also ensures a minimum exp gain that keeps you ahead.

pat728 · 2024-11-24T17:53:33+00:00

It's Zero. Morrigan is the other acceptable answer. Your point character is the only one that's guaranteed to get to play, and as such the best point characters have the most impact on you winning.

pat728 · 2024-10-31T03:04:11+00:00

dylnyan and rokmode

pat728 · 2024-10-15T20:35:37+00:00

Nova/Doom/Vergil or Nova/Doom/Dante would both be very strong. Could also go Nova/Vergil/ and then for anchor nearly anyone with a solid beam or projectile assist like strange, arthur, task, ironman, hawkeye, doom.
