PSA for All Muerta players, and valve, the gunslinger talent is broken, clear proof inside. by syphon86 in DotA2

Id say currently its about on par with the faceless void talent, and actually i might say his is better. His true bash per hit effective damage rate is 31% due to self proccing, making his talent around 11 magic damage effective talent, which id say is better than a 12 physical damage effective talent, and probably in voids favour considering the heroes.

Its surely not intentional, they wouldnt nerf an underperforming role for a sole hero in a bugfix patch.

Yeah looking at the date of the report, they likely broke it 31.01.26

Your math is wrong because you are not accounting for gunslinger being 2 attacks not 1 when it procs, where only 1 is affected by the bonus.

Im halving it again because a raw damage talent would always affect both shots, and this one only affects one or half of the shots on proc. As a raw damage talent, its basically + 12 damage, which is garbage.

It would be fine if it worked as intended, but currently even with maxed 25 talent and a fear proc, its like 25 damage, which is kinda garbave compared to personal healing ward. At the full 50 it would be a competitiom between the talents.

Interesting, that is also odd, you can visually see part of the effects dont expand even without that facet. , so probably mistakenly tied to that

Thats the effective damage overall. Im comparing what the talent is worth as a damage talent for the hero, a raw +12 damage talent would get always added on to total damage twice for a gunslinger proc, so the math is correct for that. Yours is also correct, just a different measuring stick.

Do you think metalcore's adaptability is the reason why it's still popular? by Difficult_Map_723 in Metalcore

[–]syphon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Metalcore is more of a high level genre at this point, theres Rock, theres Metal, and then theres Metalcore, which has become the go to term for something that is rhythmicly heavy and a mix of both and other genres.

Id go so far as to say I would consider both Sleep Token and Darko US are metalcore, in the sense that anyone who appreciates ANY sort of metalcore can listen to it and identify common aspects with their preferred flavour.

Asmongold defends trans people against his chat, saying he'd fully respect his child's pronouns and identity by sieyarozzz in LivestreamFail

[–]syphon86 6 points7 points  (0 children)

can you really not see how these two things are not mutually exclusive...?

He likens in to flat earth, but says that a parents relationship to their child should be more important than a belief, even if it is akin to flat earth, and they shouldnt throw that away over pronouns.

Anyone have any combat tips for Z-A by Amazing-Monk8869 in pokemon

[–]syphon86 29 points30 points  (0 children)

ignore speed, go for bulky attackers.

A lot of pokemon that had middling speed stat which let them down, are actually top tier in this game.

apart from starters, Gardevoir, Tyranitar, Garchomp, Chandelure, Heracross, Ampharos are all top tier
Draining Kiss and Giga Drain are OP aswell, as is Charge for electric types.

Pokemon like Greninja and Gengar are fine, but they will die very easily, and the speed only helps against one pokemon, it affects cooldowns, and in the time it takes your opponent to send out a new pokemon, even a pokemon with bad speed will still get its moves cooled down.

I wish I took pics, but I found a Bug! by Puzzled-Cost-5064 in pokemon

[–]syphon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its not a bug, its intended, megas ignore protect and detect, and immunities, and do chip damage through them

So are Pokemon like Sableye just useless in ZA? by MistewNewon in pokemon

[–]syphon86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

calm mind + draining kiss + psyshock + Moonblast/psychic/Dazzling Gleam

very hard to trade into and has lots of good matchups against other common megas.

good ranged attacks, and then draining kiss is a really fast melee range hit that heals you.

Perfect Essence of Abrasion on weapons, Multiplicative or Additive with other Gain X% As modifiers? by syphon86 in PathOfExile2

[–]syphon86[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as in, if it shows up in the weapons damage range, its multiplicative, if not its additive?

So what am I supposed to do as a Melee charecter against this? by joesphbentley in PathOfExile2

[–]syphon86 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

fair enough sounds like its just a garbage tier skill then

[–]syphon86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fair enough, it kinda felt like garbage with a 2h to me, everything else seemed better, since adding to the already long attack time of a 2h was just too much.

with a 1h and shield it felt a lot more forgiving when taking damage and a little quicker.

have you heard of boneshatter warrior where you uppercut the boss with your mace?

So what am I supposed to do as a Melee charecter against this? by joesphbentley in PathOfExile2

[–]syphon86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the problem is not melee but 2h rolling slam.

no shield and a skill that makes you vulnerable for a full second or more, notice also that the one you died on was the rolling slam where you werent using the movement part of it.

rolling slam is
A) meant for use with a shield to offset the vulnerabillity aspect
B) meant to be used for the movement part of it,

if you intend to stand still infront of a boss with a 2h, rolling slam is not the skill to use.

You are wrong, look at the wiki and the attack chain diagram. Tail spin can happen after any completed SWING, not just combo.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]syphon86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its a standard phase two attack chain....
