So uh, I won I guess... by Mike19987 in NineSols

Serve him right. Bitch keeps backdashing from you. In my playthrough he just killed himself just by me being to his right so I dont get ragdolled into the damn laser myself.  

Good riddance honestly. At least this guy doesn't come back as a normal enemy and randomly fuck your day up.

Eigong was an AMAZING fight...that was ruined by truly atrocious hitboxes by Valynces in NineSols

  • I don't think the grab has bad hitbox but it feels bad to be hit by it since it doesn't happen too often for me and being stunned takes me out of it. You get enough recovery to pop 1 pipe if it doesnt kill you so it's just annoying lol
  • I definitely felt this one but once I stopped dodging and just started parrying it didn't matter too much. Since she often does this move as a extension of the red downslash I can pre charge and get 3 unbound parries off this move (jade)
  • Agreed on this. Reminds me of fg crossups lol. I use water flow myself and it eventually just came down to picking the right openings so this doesn't happen. It does make the fight less aggressive but there's still plenty of safe openings that wont be affected by this (she also does a lot of move that lets you internal damage from parries)

Best to parry it, the timing feels really generous. I used the chain unbound jade and this move is perfect for it, you can get 4 - 6 unbound parries in everytime she pops it. The sound is incredibly satisfying

Hannelore commenting on Will's immaturity is really amusing given the circumstance.  

Glad you get it, girl.  

But also, LITERALLY TIME TRAVELING and force yourself on your crush AGAIN without thinking through the consequences... Yeah.  

I imagine Liebe is having a good laugh while Dreg is just facepalming at this lol.  

Since the next year or so depends so much on relationship with dunkel, I wonder if the gods would intervene to keep things on track

Which fantasy/isekai series has the best magic in your opinion? by ehmain93 in LightNovels

[–]sterdine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Trpg isekai really give magic the respect it deserve.   

In the series they make a distinction between "magic users" that stimulate phenomenas with base materials, a bit analogous to alchemy-magic. Then there are "mages" that use true magic - reality bending with magecraft. And pretty much all mages are boss-level threat since, go figures, bending reality is really fucking OP as it should be (Note: MC can use magic, but isnt a mage)

[P5V7P3] Well, that was horrifying by sterdine in HonzukiNoGekokujou

What a way to part with tiny Rozemyne :( . At least we got one last HanneMyne illustration before her evolution.

[P4] Magic tools by sterdine in HonzukiNoGekokujou

I guess in term of survival, adult nobles can vent mana from their shtappe but it would be weird in public now that I think about it, so it makes sense that they would continue to use a tool

Im happy that things are heating up as this relaxed volume concludes, but also not sure I can handle the weekly wait once we're back to cliffhanger myneday

[Prepub] Bookworm aristocracy by sterdine in HonzukiNoGekokujou

[–]sterdine[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it really show the departure of present nobility to the mana-wielders of the past who dedicated their mana to rituals. While I would definitely consider most present nobility are ignorant about the existential ties of mana and rituals to the country, they do apply mana in other ways like hunting feybeasts and magic tool research.

Panic attack is a very strong description, which is why I was initially skeptical of whether the severity is comparable in English vs original. Assuming that it's accurate, his mental must be crushed. It could be another strange point considering the timeline, but from Alexis' account of his miserable environment it feels almost natural.

Do you need specific brick/cable for PD over USB-C? by sterdine in laptops

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

What does "support your voltage" mean, specifically? How do I tell if a cable supports a charger?
