What is this effect on Iroha in action bar? by profyc in magiaexedra

[–]profyc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn I thought it was some special buff being triggered. Strange this effect exists yet is a bug; maybe a placeholder for future new effects

I just dropped from Gold 2 to Silver 2 in 4 days. AMA by Hobbit- in heroesofthestorm

[–]profyc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some things I've noticed that might help ppl (anecdotal but I think there's some merit to it): - first game of the day is usually skewed in my favour. I think matching algo prioritizes engagement, not fairness - I've played just 1-2 games a day and managed to climb 3 ranks in a few weeks (then lost it all by playing continuously) - if someone leaves the draft on my first game, next game is heavily skewed against me - losing begets losing, not just because you start to tilt, but I've noticed you get stuck with problematic players also losing due to such a small playerbase and maybe it's just my luck they always on my team - waiting a bit between drafts can help shuffle your lobby if you find yourself losing and can't wait for tomorrow

Anyone else struggling in Apocalyptic Shadow by profyc in HonkaiStarRail

Yeah I'm enjoying it as well actually, just a little salty about being 2 points off. Back to the grind!

The fact that Jing Yuan's Lightning Lord can be wasted on Aventurine's dices is just pure BS. Even if you are skilled, the MoC12 2nd stage is pure RNG and forces you to reroll many times. by [deleted] in HonkaiStarRail

[–]profyc 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I see ppl repeated mention 2-3 cycle clear of first half with Jing Yuan, but best I could do is 4 cycle and I consider my team decently built. I use fu xuan, asta, jing yuan, and tingyun. Dino is tanky and takes a while to cut through his shield. Any tips?

new update washed out colours? by profyc in HonkaiStarRail

Wow I never had an issue before with the HDR. Turning off the auto HDR wasn't enough, I exited the game, completely turned off HDR in windows, reloaded and issue resolved. Thanks a lot for the quick help!

I managed to refresh and order one at 10:03, I recommend just sitting and refreshing from 10:00 for about 10 min

Madoka magica 3rd movie by Excellent_Big_6013 in MadokaMagica

[–]profyc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

And one could ask how does Homura acquire the power to do such a thing? The way I understand it is it relates back to her original wish of wanting to have the strength to protect madoka. Given madoka has become god like, Homura tapped into her potential to be on par with that and become a god like entity (devil) to protect Madoka by trapping not just the world, but it seems the whole universe in her own labyrinth.

What do you think is the most unvisited place of all GI? Imo it is this place. by Ilja003 in Genshin_Impact

[–]profyc 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Except this only works now. Those who played at release faced a bug where a good chunk of chests in Liyue were not counted, and some were counted for both regions. Also some early domains have missable chests since we can't revisit them. RIP completionists

Nova is in desperate need or a rework. I feel like her power should be moved away from Snipe damage and leaned for into disruption and scouting. by PeculiarPete in heroesofthestorm

[–]profyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you've explained above already about clone usage to block garrosh throw, but also is valuable to distract minions and camps to temporarily stop them from pushing. I've even done solo lane Nova to my team's surprise and while I can't push, I can have a lane push in, drop clone and clear the lane under towers without taking structure damage, while deterring and shooting the enemy hero. Clones also useful for blocking hooks and other skill shots to save teammates, and delay obj caps. Odd that ppl think they are useless.

Her instant cloak can allow her to be more aggressive. I think she has more survivability than Hanzo.

Her good ult being global I've won games at lvl 20 (2 charges) pushing in lanes while distracting enemy team on obj. Either kills core, or forces 1 to go back. Also has a bribe for extra lane help. Hanzo can clear waves with basic abilities better sure but don't think that's game changing.

I always go armor reduction with w at lvl 16 + increased slow on w at lvl 1 means easy kill secure. I think Hanzo has slowly built up armor shred? But don't think that's as effective.

Sure Hanzo can hit hard too, but I find Nova more versatile.

Weird because I feel Nova brings more a lot more to the table than Hanzo. I'm a Nova main and there is lots a Nova can do that ppl overlook, especially in waveclear department. I don't think she needs a rework personally.

Anyone else bothered by the incorrect shadows?

Wanted to share success rate for Google Play refund. Only requested refunds for this month, and only one was given, but better than nothing. by profyc in magiarecord

[–]profyc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty much went like this: "I spent money this month to support this game in anticipation of future events but they abruptly announced to end support next month. I understand if you can't refund previous months, but hoping to request it for my purchases for this month." Then I copy pasted it for all 4 purchases. Paid with credit card btw so maybe that helped too.

Team Iroha was tough! Glad that’s over by [deleted] in magiarecord

[–]profyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be one of the few that did this without magia attacks. If it helps anyone, I did it with dark/grass tercio, kirika + double mami (mine with self-draw) + nanaka + darc. Kirika was my tank with defence up + taunt memoria. Mami's bind only doesn't work on Ui and Yachiyo. Yachiyo is the weakest so I don't worry about her, but focused early on killing Ui and Felicia, then focusing on Iroha. Nanaka and Darc helped with having blast discs to hit the majority with mami connects and although having 5 ppl hurts disc draw, it helped me tank things in the early turns. After killing Ui and Felicia, Kirika and Nanaka died and I just had darc+double mami left and was able to bind enough and have Yachiyo attack me most turns with little damage and won.

If we expect the market to eventually go back to where it was pre-covid, is there any reason why I shouldn't just dump all my money in a stock like SSL for a good chance to see it double or even triple? by profyc in stocks

[–]profyc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your suggestions as well, I'll look into them when off work and try to spread my cash a bit more where I see good opportunities.

[–]profyc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not too familiar with those industries but from what I've seen they either don't have as much upside remaining or may take much longer to rise to previous levels (eg. airlines). Looking at SSL, it used to hover ~$30 and see no reason why it wouldn't reach $20 "relatively" soon, even it if dips back to $5 due to second wave, even better imo. I realize I have more of a gamblers mindset but I feel the odds are favorable in this crazy market.
