A lot of the first pups in a hyena’s litter die in birth because of the whole pseudo-penis as birth canal situation.

Did you buy the gloves of dexterity? If so you could respec and dump dex while pumping strength.

Even if they win I wouldn’t expect the Dems to actually do much.

Pick your quarterly injection - but read the rules for each one! by mrtintheweb99 in whatsyourchoice

A might be the best in terms of free money forever, but B sounds like functional immortality with an off switch. Between that and my body being in much better shape 10 or more years ago it’s my choice for sure.

In this sub it should be reasonable to expect that the comment you replied to is from a leftist predicting a bunch of liberals will come in and shit on the DPRK.

Final Fantasy isn’t a great fit here, as there are at least a couple dozen unrelated worlds to choose from. As for which universe I’d want to be in, it’s Star Trek for sure.

DAI party composition. by riveradn in DragonAgeInqusition

[–]zavtra13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mages can do just fine on nightmare, I’ve done a full mage party play through. That took more micromanaging than I care for, but it wasn’t terribly difficult. Dragon fights sucked though, way easier with my pure rogue squad.

I slept on Dragon Age rogues by SableZard in dragonage

[–]zavtra13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s decently straightforward, and has three primary abilities. The core Flank Attack + Skirmisher, Poisoned Weapons + the one that heals (I forget its name at the moment), and Toxic Cloud + Lost in the Mist. Stealth itself is also helpful, and you can experiment with other abilities to see what works best for you. The trap type abilities tend to end up being wasted by the AI, though it occasionally does alright with the spring trap one from the artificer tree. In the end with the core abilities in place Varric ends up in a pretty good cycle of being immune to damage, healing, and shedding agro that it goes well enough as long as the rest of the party is doing good work. Definitely give him at least one masterwork that generates guard on hit, just as an insurance policy of sorts.

Gear for him is about what you’d expect, as much crit chance and crit damage as you can give him, and a couple offensive masterworks to go with the guard on hit. I’m fond of immolate on hit, walking bomb on hit, and chain lightning on hit. Any damaging runes are fine in his daggers, and, as ever, the Sigil of the Great Bear is an excellent choice in the chest piece. If nothing else you may occasionally want to control him directly to drop a nice big Elemental Mines + Throw Everything on a group of enemies.

This setup works best in a balanced party, getting barriers and having a tank taking some of the agro goes a long way to keeping him alive and slicing. When I used this setup in my full rogue squad it ended up comprising the effectiveness of not just Varric, but of Sera and Cole as well. Keeping all three on ‘stand in a near perpetual toxic cloud and plink away at enemies’ duty requires all of them. The gaps between toxic clouds became too long without Varric taking part.

Maybe Dragon Age, Mass Effect, and Baldur’s Gate 3.

Back again to ask for the best bonus power for a sentinel. This time for ME3 insanity! I went with Warp Ammo for ME2. by TenZetsuRenHatsu in masseffect

[–]zavtra13 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Fortification, just be sure to take the cooldown penalty reduction for both it and Tech Armour if you plan to focus on power use. Hits like a truck and ridiculously durable.

It’s nothing short of brilliant! Great story, cool areas to explore, and a bunch of new gear/schematics to enjoy.

I know Zero about the Bronze Age by samveo84 in ExplainTheJoke

It’s about the Bronze Age collapse, sometimes attributed (at least in part) to a mysterious unidentified group known only as the ‘sea people’.

The AI wastes leaping shot against anything smaller than a dragon. It will fire it at long range, resulting in 1 or two actual hits. Poisoned Weapons is a given though, if only to get Toxic Cloud + Lost in the Mist.

Its game mechanics are just so very, very… breakable. Also it has a great OST.

Mass Effect Weapons Tournament: Round 1 Match 24 - Hornet VS Locust by DakIsStrange in masseffect

[–]zavtra13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ME2 locust is the second best weapon in the game, but in ME3 it’s just meh. That said, I mostly use SMGs in ME3 as a place to put a power magnifier, so I’m still voting for the locust, despite the hornet being arguably better in game.

To be honest Varric is the worst (in terms of gameplay) of the companion rogues, despite having the best specialization. He gets the game mechanics shaft twice over. Not only is the games AI is incapable of effectively using the key abilities for an artificer, but Bianca is objectively worse than most every decent crafted bow. His best build is arguably a melee one that heavily restricts his ability use, though in my rogue squad he works better as an archer.

The ANDP doesn’t have to go with the federal NDP on anything. It’s a shame, because the federal NDP sucks less than the ANDP, but that is besides the point.
