    This game is pretty fun - here's a question though - what am I missing with the damn yappy dog ? On normal I just used a regen potion and walked up to it and killed it, but it's damage is crazy on hard, I don't get even close to halfway.

    The damage is already done - evolved orochi has too many hp for the cheapskate resolve teams at level 1. I wouldn't sweat it, level him up if you feel like it, the only reason not to is that he gets pretty crappy returns for the amount of xp you have to dump into him ( 350atk and 70rcv for 4mil...

    Hex PvE has no pay to win option, you can't buy PvE cards, only PvP ones. Also, formats like sealed and draft are pay to play, not pay to win. It's only constructed format where it's obviously pay to win. I wouldn't hype Scroll's lack of pay to win too much yet in any case - it's paid beta...

    Legend was pretty easy with mono blue ( used hermes/lakshmi ), and he dropped first time, so don't think I will bother with mythical. I agree that so many people swapping to their level 4 goemons is pretty annoying ;p

    Friend up a lot of hermes, enjoy victory ? ;p You want to get a siegfried at some point, so check out some of the farmable teams you can work toward for that, but don't focus on it too much - you never know how long it will be before two heroes shows up again.

    Yeah, I did it once to try it out. There's a button on the newly installed game before the tutorial that says something like 'migrate existing', you just click it, enter the ID of the character you previously saved with the 'Game data migration' option in the menu. It will get you to sign in to...

    It wasn't awful, but it felt really long. Had a few hugely eye rolling moments, like the black guy stealing tvs from wallmart 5 minutes into the zombie apocalypse, and the whole thing with israel and the singing refugees.

    They didn't know that the ocean adapation would work to survive the cataclysm at that time - the tech faction were allegedly going to piss off through the gate and blow it up once they left, leaving them all trapped on earth to be potentially wiped out. Not exactly angels, but it wasn't entirely...

    Went with red/white minerva, blue odin, green odin, amaterasu, hades and amaterasu. Was pretty straightforward but very slow, I won't be farming this one I think. Horus/Minerva *might* work but I had some pretty sketchy runs of heart orbs during the boss that would have sunk that team, so it...

    Yeah pretty much, it's talking about fitting it onto a 50GB blu-ray though. 4 disks with swapping isn't really a good experience for movie watching.

    You'd lose your money in this case. I do regret upgrading it though - the start screen is an abomination, as is the minimum level of protection requiring you to approve programs writing to ini files in their installed directory - I'm not even going to mention the default levels.

    I rate a solid 'meh'. It's ok, it's just missing so much depth and polish, after a few hours I don't really have an desire to play more. Will probably do so at some point, but just not feeling it currently.

    That usually means something has gone wrong with the permissions on the PAD folder. Is your device rooted ? If so just copy your data48 and data56 files out, reinstall it and then copy them back is probably the quickest way to sort it out.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    It is, but in a good way for hex - pre 95 patents are only valid for 17 years, not 20. Patents haven't quite run as ludicrously out of control as copyrights have. Reading that patent is a bit sad though - it goes into a huge amount of detail, shows clearly where it is innovating - and...

    Most people who say they are using shiva don't mean they are doing a high hp mono red team ;p Divines can be as low as 3 on the starting swing timer too - turn 2, no skills up, few orbs of your correct color is pretty ugly for most teams.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Neither does Hex. It's colorless generic mana with 'threshhold', or minimum amounts. Scrolls doesn't sacrifice for generic energy either, it sacrifices for a specific color which can be only used on cards of that color. That's random quibbling though, Hex is alike enough to MTG that any...

    Be ruthless in sacrificing cards for two new cards, especially shit like poison aura. You don't have to keep all your totems alive, so focusing defense on 3 of them will still get you the win. One of the benefits of growth is that if he has a super buff creature that is going to rip you a new...

    He's not right at all. Hera-is and Zeus-dios were just added to the JP side to provide challenge for the people who have been farming since release. They are also limited dungeons that rarely show up. Complaining you can't farm them the first time they show up is first world problems to a...

    Having one of green odin or amaterasu can be very useful for working your way up to good teams. If you had to pick one god though, I'd take one of the greek or norse r/g/b gods or parvati. They let you cover the vast majority of dungeons easily, only leaving out things like valkyrie and zeus...

    I don't actually use it, but I'm not aware of Steam's offline mode having a 'heartbeat' - as far as I know, you set it up once per game and it stays like that permanently.

    I'm not sure they have any choice - great wolf, ragged wolf, brother of wolves and mangy wolf make up most of the starter deck. I went growth as well and I have bought 4 of the 10 packs and still don't have any kind of customization I can do on the deck. I have 60 growth cards now, but that is...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    You can't buy PVE cards, so I'd assume the drop rates from pve would be relatively generous to avoid burnout. The way they have it set up is each dungeon/raid having it's own loot table, so should be decent opportunity for variety. There's no info on how many PVE drops there are from a given...

    Absolutely - it was totally the 'right' or 'good' thing to do - it was not, however, the 'lawful' thing to do.

    Mm, maybe - you can farm pve cards and trade/sell them for pvp ones. I expect that to likely be a better way of getting more pvp cards than any of the other $250 bonus, exluding pro of course, although even pro in the first year ( given DC gets free draft as well for the 1st year ). Given the...

    Alignment charts are almost always terrible*, and I realise that's the point - but Ned Stark led a rebellion and civil war in the name of personal vengeance and set up one of his buddies as a pretender king. He's also a liar and an oathbreaker. He'd be lucky to qualify for neutral good, lawful...
