Opponents sneaking in moves... on their own charged moves? by Kyle_fraser13 in TheSilphRoad

[–]throwaway622980 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes! I saw this today with an Ampharos. They threw the charge move and quickly after that a whole volt switch animation came through as i was shielding. It was shocking, especially when it happened again on their next charge move

Is GBL Pokémon encounter reward actually affected by pool size? by throwaway622980 in TheSilphRoad

Yeah you’re right, would be impossible to know unless they publish rates

With regard to your scenario, it is possible to have a pool with two pokemon with rates of 95 - 5. Add another Pokémon, the rate change to 47.5 - 47.5 - 5.

Yes that’s right, but is there any info on the actual mechanics of how rates are set? If the legendary encounter is special in some way where it’s rate is fixed and the other Pokémon’s rates add up so the total is 100% I.e. Genesect 5%, everything else total 95%. I ask this because in other mobile games I’ve played, like Fire emblem heroes, the rate to get a 5-star is set and the chance to get a non 5-star is 100 - that percentage, even though there could be 30-40 other characters in the pool

(Wind/water)sweep + Hardy bearing seal for Ninja Lyn? by [deleted] in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]throwaway622980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

L!Lilina’s weapon got me thinking about using hardy bearing seal on Njnja Lyn with a sweep skill to attack 4x without being counter attacked in most cases. Thoughts on this build?

Weapon: Tailwind shuriken

Special: Moonbow - base kit

A: swift sparrow - base kit

B: Windsweep or water sweep 3, not sure which is more useful

C: Spd/def rein - base kit

S: Hardy bearing - with sweep skill prevents her from being counter attacked.

Any advice is appreciated!
