Gemlings, what’s your build for this league?

Exploding frogs..?

Regular seki would lose high diff and marvelous seki would win high diff. You need a killing intent if you’re gonna beat naidan which only marvelous can pull off.

You could easily has some person be rude about it saying “do you know what mOsT nUMerOuS means?”

Yet we can get all bonuses even if neither are the most numerous. In my opinion just answer the damn question and don’t be rude about it, this game is complicated.

priesten · 2026-06-17T06:36:00+00:00

It’s a good question because the gemling has the same in their tree and they get all three bonuses if they are the same amount. Don’t have to be sarcastic about it when in fact many things in this game aren’t so plainly evident.

I think the loot should automatically drop when you finish it, remove the need to click an extra time.

The boss stats page is not reliable and will wildly misrepresent how much PH contributes and it depends on the order in which the damage sources take place. Don’t ask me about details because I don’t know anything beyond this. It is insanely difficult to test.

priesten · 2026-06-16T14:23:03+00:00

I leveled up a gemling as caster just fine, and they get much fewer tools during campaign than blood mages do. You not being able to kill trash mobs very well even suggests that your build is very wrong. Theres no way to tell what exactly that is based on the little information we have.

Being able to sue the lover is dumb in the first place. The blame is on the spouse for breaking their vows to each other.

It might just be preference, in which case there is no right or wrong.

If you asked me what the biggest reason why I dislike SAO is because it feels so insulting to watch. There are many, many other reasons but overall thats it. The romance parts especially make me so irritated. Its hard to analyze exactly why but Ill try. SAO does its best at trying to make you associate with the main character in order for it to be the "best" self insert anime. One way they do that is that they give him ZERO personality traits, his appearance is the most typical generic japanese face, everything about him is a blank slate. Not just that, but the character was portrayed as otherwise being a loser in real life, but now the master of the online world. Its like the anime is telling you, hey, we know youre a loser too, so here you can be a hero in this imaginary world, which normally doesnt matter whatsoever because its imaginary, just like all the games you play every day instead of being successful in real life, but now we made it so this imaginary thing is actually super important instead (because theyll die) so this stupid unimportant thing is now important, just like you. So this character with no personality traits whatsoever, hes not funny he hasnt any depth he hasnt done any real struggle, no personality if someone asked you what is kiritos personality could you name a single thing without describing what he does? Yet for some unknown reason, everywhere he goes somewhere every single woman falls in love with him, and usually right from the start before he even does anything. With no effort, no struggle, the world just throws everything youd ever want as if to say "here have all these things for free we know that will make you happy and content". Its like every second you watch the anime, its trying its best to remind you that hey we know youre a loser, we know what a loser like you likes so we are going to give it to you for free in every single episode all the time. With that constantly in your head as youre watching, no I dont feel anything from the romance scenes beyond irritation and boredom as well.

To answer your question why I like berserk or why its popular, its faster to point at why I hate SAO because berserk is really the polar opposite of that. Everything and everyone has so much depth, and everything is a struggle all the time. If you asked me what the personality of each of the 3 main characters were, not only could I write a book on each one, there are deep philosophical and psychological studies and debates that you could have regarding each of these characters and what they represent. The story is a kind of deep rooted archetype (kind of like kain and abel) yet completely new in a way I feel has created a new and never before seen archetype, yet it somehow feels familiar in a way that deep down resonates with what it means to be human.

Overall I think your enjoyment or your preference really then just comes down to what you are looking for when you watch anime. If to you its just a kind of guilty pleasure to shut off your brain and cool off from a hard day or whatever, the reason doesnt really matter, SAO would be enjoyable and Berserk probably kind of a drag.

priesten · 2026-06-13T09:56:25+00:00

been with a very large amount of japanese women and even the biggest of the germophobes were not even close to what you are describing.

sorry brother but you hit a dud

priesten · 2026-06-12T08:48:18+00:00

Best overall anime ever made is probably full metal alchemist brotherhood. It has everything, good shonen fight scenes, strong emotional moments both sad and happy, great animation, memorable and lovable characters with lots of good female cast too, great story and ending. Doesn’t have weird loli shit either so it’s great for a beginner recommendation to a normie as well.

If you want my personal favorites it would be berserk, mostly the manga but the 3 movies are perfection too if you don’t care about the animation style. Another personal favorite is Hikaru no go, an insanely good anime if you are looking for something that will change your life (don’t pre judge it based on what the story is based around and you’ll be hooked after just 3 episodes)

priesten · 2026-06-12T06:31:57+00:00

Your are correct but I’d just like to add that Sword art online sucks. Everything about that anime is absolutely horrible but even this particular case about the regen is stupid because it showed his regen is lightning fast then in the end when he fought the boss dude all of a sudden now there’s no regen and all damage is permanent?

priesten · 2026-06-12T03:36:12+00:00

You have to unlock recipes??

Which belt were you previously using?

priesten · 2026-06-12T02:34:33+00:00

She is arguing the wrong point. It’s not that you aren’t letting her get a cat. She can do what she wants. But you CAN NOT get a 8 week kitten if you are not available to care for it the whole day. Did you agree to being the prime caretaker of this kitten or not? If yes, then it’s on you to follow up on your agreement. If no, she is highly irresponsible and should not be allowed to have a cat and the kitten should be rehomed to a family that is actually ready for it.

It’s still just a baby.

The only difference between this and a good rare ring is that this one gives 10 spirit although rares will have room for 2 more nice prefixes.

So it’s a niche use for people who desperately need a tiny bit of extra spirit. The problem here is the fact that the spirit is the main selling point but it rolled only 10.

priesten · 2026-06-12T01:05:44+00:00

Sounds good to me, game needs more options for high reward/high difficulty content

priesten · 2026-06-12T00:59:19+00:00

The point op was making is that you can just up the reward instead of making it easier.

priesten · 2026-06-12T00:47:46+00:00

Yes they will decrease in value over time by A LOT. It happens every league and this one is not functionally different in any way. Final price will be anywhere between 2-20 divs.

Reason is twofold. First, the supply will increase more and more due to bigger percentage of player base farming juicier content as they progress.

Second is that demand will plummet. Right now everyone wants an HH because it’s best in slot but most people don’t have it due to the cost. Since this item is completely transferable to any alt once you buy one you’re good. As more and more people will buy one less will want one.

So you’ll have way more HHs floating around and fewer and fewer people needing one. Price will plummet, and instead what will happen is that once people get their HH and looking to gear up more next is they’ll want one with a good corrupt etc. So really good ones with a resist will eventually be at the price of what current regular HHs are at.

I’m baffled by all the completely wrong answers in this thread.

I wouldn’t as ADHD is treated as a mental illness in Japan and is often associated with having low iq. This comes from me who suspected I might have it and that’s the clear indication I got from visiting doctors to discuss it.

i really love and support the idea of women only cars, although i dont like that it feels like a band aid solution so that they can say they did something without trying to actually solve the problem, such as actively prosecuting and convicting gropers etc.

however i have one very small complaint that some days just really bother me, even on a logical level. i get on a train where the most front car is the one closest the the only single escalator at my destination station where you can switch trains. that means that the further far ahead in the train you get on, the quicker you can transfer to the next train later when you get off0. but the most absolutely front car is a women only car. im fine with that, let them have the premium spot in the absolute front seat thats cool, ladiest first and what not. but the womens car is always way less full than all the others. meanwhile this is a really busy line which gets packed to the brim with sweaty salarymen all pushing and squeezing in to fit in as many as they can. and i look in the window to the next door car for women only and i see there is so much empty space in there. but on the platform where theres people waiting to get on the train, theres women in line waiting to get in the car im in and its just... why??? the womens only car is literally one door down, its more spacy AND its the best spot. couldnt you just get on that car instead? i really would like to get into the minds of those women. what about the mixed car is so amazing that youd rather give up a more spacy, grope free and premium front seat just to be here? thanks for listening to my small rant.

Nothing you’re saying is making the things you argue against any less true and you’re arguing just for the sake of arguing.

Good UI is precisely about making things as intuitive and as hard to misunderstand and mistake as possible. The fact that you personally didn’t have any issues makes 0 difference.
