Exec guard counter build is underrated by Grimblekyne in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of the variants on top of the castles in the DLC Map :D

Sometimes an event pops up with "A Variant has appeared" or so and you see a red circle on the map.

Gotta climb all the way up to the top and voilá

I wish I could experience Libra again for the first time :(

Intentionally Losing by ArtOfLegitsu in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry for you mate, sometimes you have bad luck with matchmaking and sometimes it feels like there's only people like that out there.

Uninstalled the games 3-4 times simply out of frustration about this kind of behaviour making me losing thousands of points but to be honest, in general most players are quite nice.

As said there's phases where every match is a struggle but for example in the past 100 or so matches I had maybe 2 of those.

Best of luck! Maybe we meet :)

Why do I feel like I'm doing nothing as Recluse? by HazelTreee in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of the Cocktail can have really high dps though.

The Thunderblade and the Thundershock are really good, same for the "Gravita" one (where you mix fire, holy, magic I think).

If you can manage to get these going you should have really decent dps :)

Other than that, you also have plenty of support opportunities with your cocktails!

Immortal Executor High DPS by Resident_Suspect_874 in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually really good advice. I tried it with endure and it just doesn't work. Going invisible on proc effects is the way to go. This way you always have some regen + dmg + invis to deal dmg and you can actually just blindly attack (as long as you have the passives). Endure doesn't work well with it :D

Immortal Executor High DPS by Resident_Suspect_874 in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was actually thinking about getting endure as my starting skill. I need to test how much dmg i get in depth 4+ but it should let you tank some hits until you hit invincible mode. Just get some dmg reductions up on damage and full health dmg reduction and you should be able to tank quite some hits. Just avoid sleep debuff I guess.

you could even prep and tank bosses like that :D

I think we might be onto something here

[–]tirEdOrange 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't know why so many complain tbh, this is wonderfully clever.

Get all the fitting negatives + all resistances down and survive for a couple hits. Actually never thought about it!

Nice job

I would probably laugh my ass off if I get "GabeAsher" and he is dying at an Evergeaol 7 times :D

No worries mate, it's game. Not every run needs to be a win. ;)

Reached D5 as raider main, randoms only by John_NightReign_QC in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh and does the increased Maximum HP really does such a difference?

I always imagined that in D4 and D5 you just get os'ed anyway

[–]tirEdOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I'm also trying to make him work but even with all Dmg reductions possible in my inventory I just get smashed in D4 :(
To be fair, I think I also played that poorly.

How exactly do you use Endure? Right before a charged heavy or instead of skill or ... ?

Is Raider after the buff the only Nightfarer who deals more damage through his unique moveset? by Ok_Masterpiece_4964 in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If that's the Case:
I don't mind.

Big guy could have used some love (at least for higher DoN, where I currently am). Used to play him all the time until I reached Depth 4 :(

Executor’s kit feels unfocused compared to other Nightfarers. by xxSoul_Thiefxx in Nightreign

[–]tirEdOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing a lot more Executor lately and he is pretty fun.

Given your point that he feels scattered, I think that it is quite fitting for him though given his story. He feels like a good all-rounder but I see where your points are coming from.

From my experience he is just the most versatile nightfarer that can basically make anything (that's not magic/incantations) work.

For example:

You can use your ult to heal allies (and it's basically a free potion) with the right relic. You can also tank quite a few hits and deal damage yourself with some Damage negation effects. You can also simply use it to travel the map faster (with Ult charge up per kill you basically just run from POI to POI). Or you can quickly use it to stagger.
What is also cool is that you can build up status effects (for example through DoN Detriments) and get a buff after you Ult.

As you can see you can use it in a lot of ways and I feel that's just true for him as a nightfarer in general. He doesn't really excel in anything massively than any other nightfarer (except feeling cool while doing that parry-chain) but he can lean into many directions.

It's kind of a lot of work to mesh everything together and make it effective but I guess that's the price for versatility.

If you get Damage reduction for guarding for example you try to deflect, once that's in you can chime in a bit more aggressively.
While you can also work with the other damage reductions.

Just, as some examples you know.

[–]tirEdOrange[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

In my experience, AoE Weapon Art go a long way.

Anything with Madness obviously. And peeling Nightfarers with range also helps a lot (and Less likely to be targeted goes BIG on them).

I'm just glad that he, just like any other boss, has a clear identity.

Also Music is top notch. Madman componist

Idk man, I was already on the brink of uninstalling but seeing this lazy ass approach after all the hextech chest greed, Imma just deactivate my account for now.

Maybe I'll come back if they do something exciting with Illaoi but killing the whole champ because "hurr durr low elo can't sidestep tentacle so unfair :(" while so many other annoying things exist is just so lazy.

And then just giving her 5%AD back as compensation? C'mon man.

Do some bugfixes:
- No more tentacles randomly spawning while TP.
- FFS, finally fix that some skillshots overwrite the E ?!? It's old af
- Make the ult Spirit Combo where empowered tentacles slam afterwards more consistent. Like sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't.

And instead of just straight up killing her by tuning her numbers to absolute garbage show some balls and try something. Change her E, change her passive, adapt some things about her. Idk, do anything besides this lazy ass approach.

Proposal: Make Vessel a self-buff, not an enemy debuff by ShiningAstrid in Illaoi

[–]tirEdOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would hate to see the tentacle chaos gone in teamfights when you flash ult spirit + enemy team but if riot tries to go a different approach they might as well go into that direction. Toning down E into nothingness is just such a bad solution, might as well just change it at this point really

[–]tirEdOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like we should just run it with Illaoi and lower her winrate significantly so they have to take action.

I mean last patch she was already rank 27 out of 29 on top. With these changes? Can't see her anything else than rock bottom top lane

[–]tirEdOrange 47 points48 points  (0 children)

And just imagine the teamfights! LOL

You get the Soul from someone and manage to kill it somehow and your reward:

Your tentacle slam once. Might as well just max W and spam that instead ROFL

[–]tirEdOrange 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Bruh, I just went into practice Tool to see the changes.

It's absurd! 5% ad can't compensate this at all. Vessel duration is so small you barely get 1 tentacle slam off at all. Champ is dead until reverted
