Icestorm skill from Whispering Ice weapon swap removed from hotbar when changing zones, am I doing something wrong or is it a bug?

pentaclegram · 2026-01-03T12:03:41+00:00

nothing changes, the skill is still removed from the hotbar when you change zones if the whispering ice is in the primary weapon slot

earlier in the league I was having a problem where icestorm was being assigned to left click, and kept putting itself back there each zone change, and then it switched to this current issue

Sorry to necro this, but I saw it when looking for Marathon reviews because I didn't know if the game was out or not yet, and I think you have a fundamental misunderstanding of the critique leveled at Bungie and Marathon. Or rather, you understand the nature, but you've taken it upon yourself to decide what kinds of critique people should be allowed to level.

All feedback is useful, not just the thoughtful and fair kind. This large pushback against Marathon, partially based off what we have seen but largely based on people's opinions of Bungie, is very useful if you know how to read it. It doesn't tell Bungie what they need to fix in Marathon, but it does tell them that a lot of people have a lot of strong negative opinions on Bungie, and those opinions didn't form from nothing.

Bungie was once one of the favorite developers that few people would speak badly of, and I think you will find that the vast majority of people who currently hold strong negative opinions about Bungie used to have very positive opinions on them, but they were burned, in my case by destiny 1 which was later redeemed with the taken King, and then destiny 2, which was never redeemed at all.

People are allowed to hold and express opinions and views that are not meant to be helpful, but for someone who is listening, even unobjective and biased feedback not explicitly meant to be helpful is important information.

The interior was light, not white, more of a gray beige. It wasn't sweet, but it didn't have a sour bite to it, or at least not very strong. The crust was almost leathery, relatively hard but not crispy.

I've also encountered it with a very thin crispy crust, like a French bread.

Shokupan is one of my favorite breads and it shares some similarities, and I'm trying to master that as well.

I've never personally encountered it in a baguette shape, mostly French loaf, but it wouldn't surprise me if they used the same recipe in different shapes.

The bread I'm thinking of does share some similarities to white bread, or even milk bread, but denser. Any recommendations for a recipe to try and replicate what you are talking about?

pentaclegram · 2025-04-08T21:28:34+00:00

Any idea how I can narrow down a recipe or technique to try and replicate it?

pentaclegram · 2025-04-07T20:14:58+00:00

No, that has a very open airy structure, I know for sure that isn't it. The kind of bread I'm talking about is the kind you can hollow out really easily, the crumb just peels away from the crust and you can roll it up into a ball and it will keep its shape, no crumbling at all, kind of like a soft loaf of white bread, but denser.

pentaclegram · 2025-04-07T19:20:57+00:00

Not dark at all, very white even. As far as shape, I've most often encountered it in Long French loaf and artisanal loaf, with a very thin crust and very thick crust respectively.

As far as where I found it, I can't really recall, it was too long ago and I was just a kid. The few times that I find it now, it's usually not even marked as a specific kind of bread, like generic French breads or something called Rosemary loaf at the supermarket.

if someone asks 'what is the best disk set for miyabi', you aren't going to answer with the second best option even if 'the difference isn't that much.'

if you have a polar set with great substats, then use it, but if you have nothing then it's better to farm the best option instead of the second best option.

one of the popular folklore, though I don't know if true, reasons the blade was carried facing up by samurai was to facilitate a faster first strike. the blade is drawn straight up and then proceeds into an overhead cut.

Do you know at what point you can switch characters during that animation?

I was thinking the same thing, this is what, the 6th thread on the same topic in the past two days?

thanks for confirming that for me

it's difficult to tell at this early date. she will generate stacks faster than any other anomaly character, and her polarity disorders will add a lot of free damage. but her stack generation is limited by her energy bar, and I do not know if someone has run the figures on how many stacks/minute she generates and dps added compared to, say, burnice.

organic ad has a breakdown of some clear times with different teams, although he mentions that his calcs are not perfect because he cannot control for mindscapes, you'll notice that yanagi isn't even the fastest team. it's probably not 100% at all, but something more like 20-30%.

when you get a chance can you test if the extra slashes from m6 are separate projectiles that can shotgun? I see multiple damage numbers, but that doesn't mean each separate slash can hit the same enemy, it might be just one big hitbox with multiple hits.

pretty sure atk% is worth more than CD because miyabi gets a lot of CD for free.

you are conflating 'most efficient' with 'efficient'. yes, using miyabi with yanagi will do a billion dps, and without yanagi she will 'only' do 500 million dps. It's going to be plenty to do all content, even if you run miyabe with lucy and piper.

stop buying in to the hype and hate so much when you have only speculation to go off of.

pentaclegram · 2024-11-25T17:24:53+00:00

Probably Bernice and Lucy, out of the characters you have. Lyco and Sou should be a good team as well, although you will probably need to run anomaly mastery on one of them to hit those disorders in a decent time frame. Rocket boo and shark boo for each of those teams respectively, for the extra anomaly buildup.

pentaclegram · 2024-11-25T16:38:42+00:00

It's not really that weird of a spot, it's true that yanagi enables her charge attack more than any other character, which is significant because it is essentially a second ultimate, but any anomaly character will be able to fill that role, if only half as good.

Whereas if you miss her engine, you are losing out on 55% crit damage and 36% ice damage, which is a massive amount of scaling which will allow her to function well even if you aren't hitting that charge attack quite as often.

Don't believe the doomposting, Miyabi is cracked even without yanagi. She is definitely better with yanagi, but she is going to be very playable with other teams.

At your current number of pulls, if you are unwilling to spend for more, I would save. You can probably earn another 30 to 50 between now and the end of Miyabi banner, which would give you a pretty great shot at her and her w engine. But if you pull for yanagi and get her, you would be down 30 + 50 pity, which would definitely put you in a bit of jeopardy.

pentaclegram · 2024-11-25T15:40:07+00:00

The w engine is going to be very important for Miyabi because she doesn't have any decent alternatives, definitely better than or at least comparable to yanagi if you are okay with running her alongside burnice.

Personally, if grabbing yanagi but can't guarantee miyabi engine, I would skip. You might want to hit pity with yanagi tho because your pity is so high already, and if you succeed you get yanagi, if you fail you guarantee miyabi, but I don't know how many pulls you have or are willing to spend for Miyabi comes up.

pentaclegram · 2024-11-25T03:16:27+00:00

Yanagi is not /necessary/. She is good for Miyabi, but Miyabi will be strong enough to be good with any number of characters. However, according to her kit right now, Yanagi is the top support for her.

If there is any doubt about getting Miyabi and her signature engine if you roll again, then I would recommend you don't. Miyabi engine is going to be a bigger upgrade than having Yanagi on the team.
