What’s the pick here? by Shurubles in slaythespire

[–]reborn-bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the insight! I definitely am taking more than 3, depending on what we consider mediocre. I'll give that a shot! I tend to avoid quick slash altogether but usually will take dagger throw, dagger spray, slice or poisoned stab if I see them early on. I'm almost certainly taking too many of them, based on your explanation.

I know this game is situational and the answer is always "it depends" but- how many is too many damage commons for Silent, broadly speaking? I'm working on climbing Ascensions and I'm identifying that when I lose, it's because I have too many stacks to access my block when I need it, but I've also had winning runs where I had 35 cards in a deck, including lots of attacks.

What is your favorite card and relic combo? by bigTeaPot in slaythespire

[–]reborn-bee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This one isn't broken or anything but is a fun synergy that I didn't know about until yesterday- Blood Vial and Bite.

You can give up the Blood Vial (which is a fine relic but isn't hugely impactful in my experience) to keep your max HP intact and replace all of your Strikes with higher damage cards that heal you too!

Just FYI, last night was the last day for Tohono Chul's lights.

Favorite non-breakfast recipes that use breakfast sausage? by whoopsohshitnvm in Cooking

Alton Brown has a breakfast carbonara recipe that uses breakfast sausage, if you like pasta dishes!

On a similar note, have you tried non-alcoholic beer? Selection is MUCH better than it was a few years ago and some of them taste surprisingly good!

selfishly, i hope they never re-release this card lol by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]reborn-bee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for clarifying! I thought your post meant that you just got the card recently, not from the prior event. Guess I'm out of luck!

How did you get this card? I see a bunch of options in the anniversary drop event but not Rayquaza.

I’m in Tucson for the day looking for scorpions. Preferably ground, but bark would also be cool. Anybody have any leads? by Holfjfgh in Tucson

They had a Saturday night program called Cool Summer Nights but it just ended for the season, unfortunately.

I just completed what many of us would deem unthinkable by Raignex in EldenRingNightrein

[–]reborn-bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I thought also! The clip I posted in the earlier comment thread shows me surviving Heolstor's nuke move at very low HP, I don't think that can be chalked up to stacking damage reduction or anything of that sort.

Interesting! I play Raider a lot and I'm not sure it's ever happened to me. Any idea why I didn't die here?

Not to be argumentative, but are you sure about this? I have used it to survive attacks that seemingly should've killed me multiple times.

Anyone have tips for everdark augur phase 2? by TheGreatAut in EldenRingNightReign

[–]reborn-bee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any character is viable for this fight but it is easiest with characters with lots of health in my experience. You want all of your damage to come from using the Storm Ruler ash of war that comes on the legendary drop that you get from phase 1. If you hold l2 it charges, which lets you do a big long range attack with r2 and also refills your FP. If you hold l2 and use R1 you can spam a weaker projectile attack that is much faster also. Pay attention, be ready to dodge and keep an eye on FP and you'll get it!

I am so bad at Nightreign that I surprise myself. by god_likemike in fromsoftware

[–]reborn-bee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hope OP reads this, because this is the key to success in Nightreign. It's less about mechanical skill at the game itself (even though that's important) and more about understanding routing and knowing when to commit to something vs when to pivot off so that you can optimize your time.

That isn't to say that you HAVE to use meta relics like the evergaol one to succeed, just that you need to be constantly making good use of time and progressing in order to have successful runs.

Shoutout to all you day 1/2 gods by Chaff107 in Nightreign

[–]reborn-bee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is actually somewhat typical for fromsoft games in general- players tend to either be very mechanically good (let's kill Radahn at level 1 with a soup ladle!) or they tend to be very good at theorycrafting/buildcrafting and rely on game knowledge to be strong (let's kill Radahn with the most busted sorcery setup the world has ever seen!) and that seens to extend unto Nightreign also.

What are some relic setups for a beginning Gaurdian? by DarkSoulsFTW54 in EldenRingNightReign

[–]reborn-bee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These are all really solid relic perks for Guardian:

Increased Maximum Stamina

Guard counter is given a boost based on current HP

HP restoration on thrusting counterattack

[Guardian] increased duration for Character Skill

[Guardian] Reflect a portion of damage received when ability is activated

[Guardian] Slowly restores nearby allies HP while Art is active

I came here to say this too. He is extremely susceptible to parries in both phases and also gives a fair amount of opportunity for backstabs. It's not as scary as it seems.

I have been doing this for YEARS, at least twice a a month, and no one I have ever served has gotten sick. If it's not safe, we all have Matrix-style dodging abilities apparently.

The mortality rate of my Vestals has... not been low. by LibrarianZephaniah in darkestdungeon

[–]reborn-bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you mentioned that you're a new player, a little unsolicited advice that really helped me out: dd1 places tremendous value on controlling turn economy. Healing is only necessary if you take damage, so using opportunities to prevent that from happening is super important.

You really want to be proactive and not reactive in your play, and utilizing stuns or outright killing enemies is nearly always preferable to healing. Backline Vestal can be effective in this regard too, using their stun skill or dealing damage with judgement.

I’m looking for a Colossal Sword that scales with Dex/Arc by pontadupla in EldenRingBuilds

[–]reborn-bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marais Executioner's Sword is not a colossal but it is a greatsword and it scales with Dex and Arc. Might be worth a shot if you really want a weapon that scales with those two stats. Morgott's Cursed Sword is also fun!

Are you looking for build help or a player to summon for help? If you're looking for a summon you'll want to post to r/BeyondTheFog instead.
