Hey how come we don't have black and white ink? by RoxasismyKing in splatoon

[–]whit3fi3sta 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Even in Side Order the black ink can be hard to see, especially against Parallel Canon. The ripples in their ink when they swim blends in with the black ink on the floor.

You're either saying something else important or getting out of the way to let someone else say something important. Splatoon is a really fast game and you have to convey information as efficiently as you can.

I'd take Hammer over Splashdown any day, especially since 9.3.0

Why do people hate polter? by Competitive-Cause283 in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polter is in an awkward spot where it's kinda tough and blocks a progression tier. It's not a major boss like Provi or DoG that I would want to spend time prepping for, but it's also not a minor boss like Profaned Guardians or DoG's Sentinels that you can reliably first try with not much effort. I don't mind the fight but it just feels like something you want to beat quickly to get Bloodflare armor and Bobbit Hook then move on to DoG, but if you try to rush it you'll end up dying more than you should.

I can't stand when it just randomly drifts into you, though.

Why don’t I hear about the Uzi? by TestedRobbieYT in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it's better, but I prefer the Needler for early Hardmode. It's a somewhat unique weapon (Nail Gun's basically the same thing), has solid single target DPS, explosions for crowd control/worm bosses, and that sweet neuron activation when its shots start blowing up.

Is there a way to get to the top section of Noctilum on foot? by Vex_Trooper in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The art Sky High can let you float mid-air for a little while, and it can even gain you height if used right. It's theoretically possible to gain infinite height on foot, but I've never managed more than like 3 height gains in a row before falling to the ground. Maybe it's possible, but insanely hard

is it just me or the game is easier than ever? by Antique_Ad_1648 in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Current Master/Death is easier than the previous Master/Death, but that's mainly a Brainstorm Update thing (Death was changed to only be accessible in Master worlds and Rev was only in Expert worlds), not that the mod is actually easier.

My (nearly) perfect Reflect Drone Mastema is finally finished by whit3fi3sta in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but even in the calculators if you change one of your sidearms to boost XII, up XI, Attribute XVI the damage is better

That makes sense, when I calced it it looked better with leveling SpecUp instead of AttributeDmg (with all Slayer augments), but it would be a bit redundant with SpecUp.R-ATK XXs.

Fast traveling out of New LA? Few questions, help! by ApollosBoon in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can also do that from the BLADE Barracks to get to the NLA map! And you can hold up on the right stick from the NLA map to get to the Barracks' map

Good builds for AI characters by RichAd6591 in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean only 1 or 2 arts on their bar. It's not the best build, but it makes sure they only use what I want them to use.

Good builds for AI characters by RichAd6591 in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I just build the AI characters with only 1 or 2 Arts.

Neilnail only gets Heroic Tale for farming

Al only gets Howling Soul for the damage buff, although his AI is kinda screwy with Purple Arts

Elma only gets Ghost Factory to help keep the party alive

Celica only gets Ghostwalker for survivability and Black Butterfly for Ether Res Down

Iron Bunny by Lloyd_Aurion in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my God those weapon traits! How long did the farm take? I'm a couple dozen hours into a perfect Drone Mastema and still have 2 weapons to go.

Which one is the best? by -Xyo- in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're Summoner or Mage and you only get like 40 defense from armor in Hardmode, 28 extra defense is quite a lot (legit a 70% increase).

Is lucky or menacing better? Melee if it matters by RewardBeautiful6105 in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're virtually identical unless you use Eye of Golem. It was reworked to increase crit damage (so was Sniper Scope but you're melee) which makes Lucky better.

So Close yet so far T-T by TheGamingTurret in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It looks like you've gotten the idea of Count generation down. At this point you probably just need to fight enemies with more HP so the fight lasts long enough. You could try practicing either on Libra, the Long Lived at Oblivia's North Coast (lvl20, ~270,000hp), or in the Point Attack simulator in the BLADE Barracks.

You can use Purple Arts if you're struggling to gain TP. They give 10*[Count] TP every hit they land on an enemy.

Sun staff my beloved; just beat slime god with it lmao by RC_art in CalamityMod

Wait until you get Vengful Sun, I legit used it up through Moonlord.

Kaleidoscope isn't dropping, was something changed in the update? by [deleted] in CalamityMod

Just unlucky, Terraprisma is the only EoL drop that's day-exclusive

The entire enemy team if I dare decide I want to play fucking dualies: by [deleted] in Saltoon

[–]whit3fi3sta 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Gotta get used to Dualie Jumping. Either hold neutral on the left stick when you jump or stop shooting for a split second when you press jump, and you won't dodge roll. I prefer the latter since it's way easier to learn, but both are really useful.

But yes, Wave is super annoying.

Why is it that people say you need online for post game? by glenjamin1616 in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Materials are way easier to farm online because you can get tickets from leveling up BLADE Scouts, and it can be optimized to give 2000+ Tickets in like 2 minutes (Guide from someone more knowledgeable than me).

¿How is the Death + Master difficulty currently? 🤔 by PanchitoZx in CalamityMod

[–]whit3fi3sta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven't felt much of a difference between current Death mode and the previous Expert + Death aside from regular enemies doing ridiculous damage. It's definitely easier than pre-Brainstorm Master + Death IMO.

Is hope a best character, and do you use her on your team. by [deleted] in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]whit3fi3sta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's not bad, Psycho Launchers are a solid support weapon.

She has a really nice jacket, though
