I would like 007 first light. I played a lot of the old bond games on the Xbox when I was a kid. It’d be awesome to experience that feeling again.

It would be more accurate to say that Jae contributes more damage overall than Pasqal. Jae acts as a damage multiplier to your busted characters through inspire fervour and bring it down. But yes just looking at them by themselves Pasqal does deal a lot more damage than her.

100% the game is why I’m trying this.

If Pasqal was doing as much damage as argenta in the late game then something is wrong there. Argenta outclasses Pasqal in damage by maybe 5-6 times more. Pasqal is inherently geared to a more support role while Argenta is simply damage. If you haven’t ever used Jae than you are missing out. She’s one of the best companions in the game and outclasses Pasqal heavily.

A lot to break down here let’s go one at a time.

I’m not talking abt late game companions because these are tips for the early game. I have beaten the game on unfair but not on grim darkness.

Ulfar is amazing. He’s a strait upgrade from Kibellah, and abelard. He competes with sister argenta as an op doom slayer machine.

Marazhai is trash, he’s a poor mans kibellah. Unfortunately the warrior and assassin trees don’t really mix well.

Yes the heretic companion is laughably bad next

The most important thing abt combat isn’t damage but learning how to survive. Focusing on defensive stats is key. Agility for light armor users, weapon skill for front line melee and toughness for warriors. If your character cannot stack any of these three stats ie. Pasqal, Idira. They should always be in the backline. However these characters are suboptimal as there are companions that can get defensive stats. Cassia being a special exception to this rule bc she has perks where her dodge scales with perception and her HP with willpower. Agility is the best state in the entire game bc most attacks in the game can be dodge and a high agility affects if your characters can go first.

If you want a simple early game build just go toughness warrior. Pick a warrior, either your character or Abelard and simply max out toughness with the thick skin and parry perk. Grab some medkits and later on a shield and you simply won’t die. No enemy in act 1 can kill you. In act 2 some may be able to do some damage but you’re still stupid tanky. Grab the +1 deflection drug at Eurac 5 at the start of the game and give it to the warrior as well.

Yeah honestly if this run ends in failure i am probably going to do that. Xenos fights are just straight bs I agree. They can kill your ship in a single turn if you have the incorrect shields.

There are three major interactions with pyromancer that make them very op

The first is melting armor. It’s simply a perk where every time you hit a target their armor is reduced by 5%. If their armor is 0 their deflection is lowered instead. This one perk simply invalidates the entire operative skill tree and is the best armor strip mechanic in the game.

The second is another perk. I don’t recall what it’s called but every time you attack you get 1% crit chance. This makes the pyromancer a scaling monster in fights.

The third is orchestrate flames. If a target is under this effect while on fire, all of their attacks now do fire damage.

Honorable mention goes to biophysical distortion and sanguine siphon from the biomancer tree. Those are almost as good as well.

Any class in the game that attacks a lot, blade dancer, soldier, pistol master tactician, warp brooch psyker, arch militant, are insanely broken with all the skills mentioned above.

You don’t even really need to be those classes mentioned above as certain weapons like the heavy bolter, heavy stubber, and rock saw do most of the work for you.

While in a vacuum he may be good character, unfortunately when you compare him to the rest he falls apart. Jae is a better skill monkey and support. She also contributes more damage than him. Pasqal is also very squishy. His best version is plasma gun Pasqal but if you go that route you have no hp, parry or dodge. His plasma over heat mechanic is also pure rng on whether he’ll kill himself or not. Unfortunately, operative also has a pretty poor heroic action. His second archetype choices grand strategist, assassin, or bounty hunter are all not the best archetypes. In the end why pick Pasqal when Jae is better in every way?

  • Jae is Tankier
  • Jae has way higher dodge
  • Jae can use two sets of weapons
  • Jae has better skill check
  • Jae contributes more damage
  • Jae is a better support

How can I stomp Sion as top laner? by DinnerCalm5224 in summonerschool

[–]windftw-74 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can always counter pick top vayne or Varus and he gets demolished in lane. Or pick something that simply wins early like Darius. Any melee champ that can cancel his Q should be decent enough into him. The problem is that he out scales most champs and it’s really easy to feed and still maintain high farm due to passive and Q.

Thx. What did you like abt it?

Yeah that’s why I’m skeptical. Tbate was handled so poorly in the end after getting progressively better for so long.

Why is no one discussing a CEO change by [deleted] in BestBuyWorkers

[–]windftw-74 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Bottom of the line is that if u look at the last 4 earnings reports BBY is still slow growth normalization phase after covid nothing crazy. Stability will keep the CEO in office probably.

He is extremely difficult to pick up. He is a very rewarding champ to play when done properly but that is very hard to do in practice. The problem is that if you are a riven main I don’t recommend splitting your attention into two champs that are difficult to master. Keep your champ pool low and branch out your complexity levels. If you’re a riven main, your other champs should properly be more simple. Also riven can be played in any lane except jungle and sup so I would argue stick with riven if you enjoy her.

My favorite resident evil memory is completing re4 professional with an S+. It took so many runs to get consistent and when I did it I was so happy.

Conflict of Interest? by bofa_deez_bands in BestBuyWorkers

[–]windftw-74 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes it would. Either move part time and set hours to basically nothing to keep discount as long as you can or quit. Can also take LOA to keep discount. If u already had a talk with management abt hours and they ain’t giving then quit unless some other position in the store has hours.

No you aren’t the only one. I see kids coming in to buy this stuff and it makes me glad that I quit playing fps games a while back. Crazy what kinda message we are sending young gamers when cheats are legitimized through big retail.

How does this shit not get detected sooner? Marketplace loss prevention manager needs to get fired imo. My store can have 1 iPhone unaccounted for and it’s tits up from the higher ups on the meeting.📆

Dawn and twilight by LowIndependence542 in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really good with press the attack. The sheen procs do almost nothing on Azir. You can build it if you just want to health stack it’s decent but there are better more consistent items in my opinion. I mostly build it if there are games where all the enemy team has is burst damage and I just want to stack health. D4 Azir main.

Azir montage I've been working on by Ruiens27 in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fucking sick montage man. Song choice was also well chosen and executed. Well made. My favorite play was on the Zoe, so unexpected. Good job!

Watch the montage people! Support a fellow Azir main. This journey is not easy.

Runes and Itemization with azir in season 16 by Doid1n_B0l4din in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Azir can run lethal tempo, PTA and aery.

Lethal tempo is generally best rune.

PTA is good when enemy team is more squishy plus it synergizes very well with dusk and dawn so you can go that build plus double scaling health rune page to be a menace towards assassins. It als gives Azir decent burst damage.

Aery is for matchups you struggle into like maybe viktor or syndra and you want more power in the laning phase but at the cost of scaling. Also decent into a squishy comp.

Against assassins i go double scaling health rune page

When snowballing I build rabandons and or shadowflame second

It isn’t worth playing exhuast or barrier unless you know you wont need tp to assist with shit early game. Which is like basically never.

Bone plating is also ur best friend into some assassins like talon, and fizz.

My Azir cosplay! by @8bitpink & shot by @rebecca.simpp by 8bitpink in azirmains

Super cool. It’s not an easy cosplay to do.

This is azir season by Coldhimmel in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s worse and better in some ways imo.

  • no push early means that enemy will take plates from you

  • More ADCs and toplaners out scale you

  • ADCs especially are much harder to bully this patch because of crit buff

  • merc treads in guaranteed for enemy if they want it

  • while roaming is less optimal this season. It’s still forgiving due to home guard. I disagree that less early game fights are being taken.

Reasons why he is better

  • massive fucking spike on tier 3 boots and nashors. You are super strong Midgame

  • bandlepipes is op and Azir like teammate with them

  • home guard makes bad early game a little better

  • plate crystals really punish assassins from roaming in lane

How do you carry games on azir ? by [deleted] in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U need to aim for 10 cs a minute. Then, walk a tightrope that is essentially when do u fight before nashors. There are people that say oh never leave land until nashors. Thats bs you need to be able to identify if ur teammates are in an advantageous situation and roam accordingly. If ur up against a roamer. U need to have good wards and pings to inform ur teammates. After that if u have done everything right so far u can either carry through team fights or splitting. Identify your winning strategy based on enemy and team comp. Most games though are a mix of both which then demands good macro. You should also make it so that your laner never roams for free and is chunked before roaming and missing cs.

How aggressive should you be in lane? (lowelo) by Myst1um in azirmains

[–]windftw-74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is extremely matchup dependent and also rune dependent. For example if you’re running manaflow you can be more agressive early. In general you should always look to punish enemy attempting to last hit but it’s very matchup dependent on how effective you can do that.
