    This over Driftwood Quiver so you can run Abyssal?

    I don't do small talk. I typically launch into asking her about her interests immediately. If I find something interesting, I latch onto it and see if I can get her to go off about it for a while. When a woman passionately monologues about something she's really into, that's a good sign. Even...

    I definitely think New Horizon on him is a misplay. Seems like he wants Crown of Providence.

    Flesh and Blood

    The Dynasty aim counter cards seem too good not to run, and Riptide seems like he can get them super easily since he reloads for free. Something like Dead Eye into Hemorrhage Bore with an aim counter can be played off a single blue. Seems good.

    Without Castaway, how do you get aim counters?

    I don't think Dreadbore is the right call, I think it's still Death Dealer, especially with Azalea's new quiver.

    Flesh and Blood

    I would say that the CRU and increase power traps can be relevant against Iyslander because she attacks with Wounded Bull and EStrike, both which can gain power.

    I don't think you've solved it after beating six randos on Talishar. 😛

    Flesh and Blood

    Rangers will definitely want to use a bow still, especially because their only other choice of weapon is Talishar. Azalea got a HUGE boost this set. She's gonna be scary.

    I think Uzuri is really cool. Also adult Arakni gets a nice boost this upcoming set. Definitely going to be playing an Assassin, I'm just not sure which one!

    Embers Adrift

    The level range is too big for the playerbase. I was playing when the game was at its most popular and it was still really hard to find groups at level 20. Eventually I just stopped logging in.

    Even without knowing how Descendent Gustwave works, Katsu can already build the combat chain that gets the additional effect of Dishonor consistently. However, I think it will be rare for the card to actually hit, as people can see the combo coming from a mile away (sort of like how Liquefy is...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I really liked the way Embers Adrift did it: you have a map in each zone that shows basic geography and major points of interest (like towns and ruins) but there's no player cursor so you have to use your surroundings to figure out where you are. There's also no compass but there's a giant blue...

    The D&D thread

    Abomination Vaults was written to be a traditional dungeon crawl, so it's mostly going to be focused on combat and skill challenges relevant to dungeons. If you're looking for a more balanced campaign, I would recommend Kingmaker (sandbox-ish campaign where the PCs colonize wilderness and...

    Massacre is the artwork I usually show to people when I'm first telling them about the game.

    Yep solo Rogue is probably the most disadvantaged way to play the game. But if you're clever you can still pull off some moves. Now that we have proximity voice we can communicate with other players. What I'll usually do as a solo Rogue is try to make friends with another player if they spot me...

    Dark and Darker

    Rogues can get pretty nutty in PvE with backstab and a good dagger, but you need to have a good dagger. The difference in DPS between the 14 damage starter dagger and a 20 damage white dagger is actually pretty insane when you consider all the damage modifiers (backstab, headshots, armor...

    Yeah but at least it only takes them 7 headshots unlike skellies which take 9!

    As a Rogue, I find the goblins are okay but the beetles are nuts.

    I think there might not be enough escape portals in the solo map. I'm seeing an average of 3-4 pop up each round. That's really low.

    Almost went undefeated at my local blitz armory with Emperor yesterday. I accidentally mistook the number 5 for a 6 and went in with my whole hand on a Striders turn and my opponent lived by 1, causing me to lose all tempo. Whoops lol. The deck is really good, though.

    Yeah these two cards are really good.

    Flesh and Blood

    I love Assassin in blitz but I think it's not competitive in CC due to almost auto-losing to Dromai and needing to rely on a fatigue strategy to win (in blitz you can go tall with attack reacts but in CC you're fatiguing which means going to time often). The upcoming set features a new Assassin...

    I got top 8 at a PQ! Unfortunately lost in the quarterfinals, but I was happy to make it! It was an extremely high Elo PQ with top tier players such as Chris Iaali and Tyler Horspool, and they were all very nice and congratulated me on getting 8th. My deck was Iyslander hybrid...

    I had two PQs last weekend. The first one, I went 2-3-1 which was awful. That night I sat myself down at the kitchen table and went over all the fundamentals of Flesh and Blood again. The next day, I went 3-2, just barely losing my "win and in" to bubble at 9th. I'm hoping to do better this weekend!

    Sure but it's a better game from a mechanics perspective and you can just homebrew and 3pp anyways.

    My last comment wasn't necessarily referring to your particular situation, but I would caution you that you don't overlook a transgression in one area just because things might be right in another. Virtue is a quality you can't compromise on when it comes to women. It does not seem virtuous to...

    There is a profound irony here. She is (essentially) cheating on her husband and seriously considering divorce yet going to mass? I can only hope that God convicts her and that He sends you a wake-up call. This woman is going to hurt you, man.

    Reborn has some really good changes and some really questionable ones. I could see it becoming amazing once we start seeing mods.

    @Hateyou @Phazael I don't think the endgame elemental bonuses are "busted," I think they were outright removed. The info screens for armor and jewelry don't have any place for damage bonuses, only resistances. It's very bizarre that this choice was made, sort of like how it's also very bizarre...

    You like Ninjas? I think they're even worse than Zerkers. They removed avoidance from Reborn so the Ninja is just made of paper on turns where Steelstance doesn't trigger and gets gunned down by enemies quickly.

    I remember there was a guy who did a successful no-hit run of Dark Souls 1, 2, 3, and Bloodborne consecutively. If he got hit in any game, he restarted from the first game in the series. Insanity.
