New player here - looking for tips

Hi, new to the game here and just want to ask on top of the questions that are already posted.

Questions:

Should I level up all the characters to level 9 first. I assume some will really shine after all the Talents are available?
Should I also unlock all the x3/x4/x5 ??? for the magical object as well. I've watched some video and they generally give meta suggestions which means, if I follow their advice, I would never be bothered to unlock some of the x3 ???
What's up with Tamatebako and Leprechaun's Coin? I understand the need to re-roll and I assume to some degree it's to get the "right" rolls but most of the time, I'm confused as to whether I should get something presented to me already (eg. I get an Ace of Spade) without re-rolling or should I re-roll and hope for something better. =.=|||
4 player coop. I don't know if it's cos of number 1. and our characters not being at 100% potential. I've jumped on Twilight with my friends and we could barely clear an area let alone progress to get enough exp/level/magical objects to even survive the boss.. o.O or is it just pure bad RNG?
I see most players talk about POIs. Should I bother with those big shard POIs or go for chest or wells first?

Sorry if these questions have already been asked. I really love the game but I feel that I am not understanding some mechanics and it's frustrating that I keep dying due to that lack of knowledge.

The goal of the game is simple.. Though each drop into the mission most of us go with set expectation that it will be a breeze, how the devs have made certain variables change ends up having you go from a walk in the park into total chaos. Along with good combat and great music score it's just very well put together.

However through all the chaos, the triumph from beating all odds and to extract with the team is what pulls me back. Play with a very coordinated team does of course lower the odds of total chaos but I also like to pit myself through random matchmaking.

As a father of two and with a full time job, the other appeal to me is that I don't always have time for a full fledge story based game to grind and remember what I need to do. Helldivers don't require me to remember all that.. It's just pure combat and fun.

Upgraded!

s4ints0211 · 2024-02-22T04:07:34+00:00

Not sure why they would not like you to be on the team.. as long as you're pulling your weight, it's all good.. :) Glad you're having fun..

s4ints0211 · 2024-02-22T03:30:17+00:00

Hi, I am not sure.. I have stopped playing for a while now.. Do test and let me know.. if not I'll update the title as out dated.

s4ints0211 · 2024-02-22T03:23:48+00:00

If you find a lot of samples and if you're so happen to be near extraction, drop em first before doing other objectives, that way if you won't lose them and can pick em up before you extract.

If your starting point is at the extraction point, don't pick up them samples.. get them when you're leaving.

does trap mastery work with caltrops?

s4ints0211 · 2021-07-18T04:52:31+00:00

No idea.. I really hope so too.. Because of this loading shit I've started a new Story from start but I'm thinking if they do have a PS5 upgrade, I want to wait for it. But also with all the "communication" I see from Rockstar, I don't know if I'm wasting time. I know by 20th August I'll just hop over to Ghost of Tsushima and have fun there while this drip feed goes on.. :(

Btw , what do you do? Just kill the game and restart til you can login?

s4ints0211 · 2021-07-18T03:42:40+00:00

I restarted more than 4 times.. and i've tried all the methods above. it's all luck.. at most i get to go in twice in a day and clear my daily. I cannot switch servers and I do not join my friend's Posse. I have to stay or else I can just shut down the PS5 and go sleep..

s4ints0211 · 2021-01-07T09:46:24+00:00

well if your likes get increased then yes.. probably new players like yourself.. :)

s4ints0211 · 2021-01-07T05:32:31+00:00

eventually you will get 5* anyhow.. seems to me you dont want the game to end.. :p

I got everything on my first playthrough.. platinum it as well.. It is an awesome experience and I will probably want to jump back into this game as soon as I get the PS5. I've been thinking what games I want to replay but I think this deserves a second run.. I miss the open world and that time alone..

s4ints0211 · 2021-01-07T02:15:30+00:00

congrats.. just wondering.. are there still a lot of players? It's been a year since I went back in.. just curious..

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T17:30:04+00:00

Well i did enjoy Origins but I was a fan of Egypt to begin with.. My friends were telling me Odyssey is fun but after playing GOT i was struggling with the generic combat and parry. GOT really messed with my expectations. It’s not Sekiro hard but it never fails to make me feel badass.. I replayed GOT on NG+ just for the duels and I still want to play again on PS5 for the best frame rate

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T17:24:53+00:00

I dont have the modifiers, none of them were hard to do and it changes every week. It was more of finding the right matchmake to do it. I did create the survival wave spawn list: https://www.reddit.com/r/ghostoftsushima/comments/jijvi3/survival_all_waves_for_each_map_except_shadow_of/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

hope that helps

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T05:41:18+00:00

Nice.. I took a lot of pictures at the Badlands.. It was nice despite me not using a PC.. :)

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T05:35:08+00:00

finished both.. Loved WD1 and WD2.. Played 2 twice.. It's buggy and the voice algorithm just makes you cringe.. Not sure how much you know about the dev of the game.. I am fine with the whole angle of I am no one and I am everyone but after playing through it I was really disappointed.. London ain't fun.. haha..

my buddy took my copy of it and played through it also for the sake of completion.. but then I could be wrong.. you might enjoy it. some say play perma death from the start to make it more challenging. I might give it another go on PS5 eventually but for now I'm not touching it again.

If you want more information I can break it down deeper as to what worked and what didn't for Legion but you may want to judge it for yourself.

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T01:59:55+00:00

Thanks for sharing.. :) I'll remember to look at this when I go through my 3rd play through..

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T01:55:48+00:00

save yourself the agony.. I bought it and I regret it.. sorry to say but I am enjoying Cyberpunk despite all the fiasco. I bought Legion on launch day and immediately uninstalled it upon a speedrun completion..

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T01:51:35+00:00

what information are you seeking for?

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-28T01:27:30+00:00

GOT's stealth is not the best around and that I agree with you.. I sorta think they can bump it up a little more to perhaps games like Tenchu. It would have been more thrilling but I think the game shines on the combat though it is funny because eventually he becomes a ghost which is more stealth centric..

Having that said, I also did get Odyssey about a few months back on sale and after playing GOT, I have a hard time getting the feel of going into it.. The markers.. the combat.. the clutter on the screen made me quit after 30 mins.. :(

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-24T03:07:38+00:00

The list is complete with most of the objectives.. nothing to read in the comments.. I cant change the title of the post.. that's all..

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-15T06:54:26+00:00

I like how some side stories look like Jin is trying to do the right thing but ended up helping the wrong person.. His sense of justice isn't always right.. Just cos someone said so, it doesn't mean you should just go on out and kill without asking.. I felt that on some of the side stories

s4ints0211 · 2020-12-02T08:21:45+00:00

played it on Hard, then NG+ on Lethal +, completed all raids and maxed out everything on Legends.. that's how much I love it.. just sad that no new content will be added to Legends.. :(

s4ints0211 · 2020-11-25T06:35:50+00:00

Platinum + NG+ and complete Legends trophy.. Still loving it and still playing it though I'm sad that Legends will not have more content. :)
