    XCOM 2

    Aside from killing the sectoid, flashbangs disrupt mind control and zombies. Also, sectoids take extra damage (+3) from melee attacks. I'd start out on commander to learn the game rather than jumping straight into legend.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    As long as the bottom three aren't all top tier defenders, a single 3k dragonite can potentially roll 3 with dodges and definitely roll 2. That's 3-500 per train, which is still pretty slow for that last level but probably better than you were thinking

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    Gen 1 electric types are terrible and Vaporeon is actually lightly favored against Jolteon. You're running into weak Vaporeons if you're winning with a Jolteon. A 1600 cp Jolteon is the same level as a ~2100 cp Vaporeon. In fact, with a few exceptions here and there, all electric pokemon are...

    Hearthstone

    I started wild this season at rank 22, so I wouldn't take my 82% win rate to heart lol. And actually this is a more aggressive list rather than a standard control list. If you prefer a more controlling approach, you can ditch some stuff to make room for the auchenai package. Priest -...

    Hearthstone

    You can play almost any variety of priest in wild and it works just fine since you have the important tools (mostly lightbomb, also deathlord and velen's). I run a fairly standard control list with n'zoth.

    He fights in some Italian scrub league now and I believe that's two fights in a row that have ended in brutal KOs for him.

    Pokemans and how to catch them with your phone - friend codes in OP

    A slowbro with confusion and psychic/ice beam is actually a remarkably good gym defender. It kinda stalemates exeggutor and is lightly favored against the other 3 grass pokemon because they're weak to both psychic and ice. With lightning pokemon being so terrible there is no effective counter...

    Biggest video game disappointment?

    The multiplayer was significantly better than the actual game itself, which is funny because it wasn't even done by the main studio. Trying to go back to playing Shepard after playing the various mutliplayer characters was damn near impossible. But yeah it was gay as hell, because until they...

    Biggest video game disappointment?

    I'm only gonna spoil one gameplay thing. There is a mechanic throughout the game that I'll call effective military strength. Your military strength is a number that you steadily build higher by making choices throughout the game, and you can get little bonuses based on your decisions from the...

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    The Luke Cage event is absolutely terrible btw. All the stuff on the event vendor is trash and you can't even get armored core boxes this time around. Unless you need to prestige one of the heroes getting the extra xp bonus, I'd take the week off. I have every Hero for Hire at cosmic already...

    Biggest video game disappointment?

    Play Fallout: New Vegas. It was developed by Obsidian instead of Bethesda and it's a much better game. The DLC in particular is among the best DLC I've ever played too. Old World Blues is absolutely hysterical. There's also a gigantic bug fix mod that fixes hundreds of little bugs (and a couple...

    Biggest video game disappointment?

    This. The gameplay was a fantastic step up from ME2, and the first half or so of the story was great, but then it fell sharply downhill and the ending was so terrible that it tainted the experience of the entire series for me. As rudimentary as it was, ME1 was the best and they only went...

    I'm rank 36 which I figure is pretty good since today makes my 14th day playing. If I make it to rank 50 (or at least get close) before the event ends I'll probably dump some lapis into energy refills since in addition to crazy rank xp it's also more auracite. I've already got the first 4 summon...

    Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

    Maybe someone can do the math for me. Is it actually better to farm pro than elite? 65 rank and 5 auracite vs 53 rank and 6 auracite, but would the extra runs from an extra rank or two make up for the lower average auracite? *edit* doesn't matter for me, can't reliably do elite anyway.

    Yeah I've already checked the schedules, the next major event within 3 hours or less is in August. Guess I'll just sell the best stuff as singles and pitch the rest. Was just hoping to avoid dealing with ebay again, felt like a major headache last time.

    If you catch a pokemon or use a pokestop, then average a travel speed faster than 30mph to your next game interaction, you get softbanned.

    Probably has to do with her being possessed by Ultima's previous host at the end of FFT. BTW guys, 6* CoD gets esunaga, although it's not actually called esunaga. Either way it's group esuna.

    I just had the craziest idea. What if you put camouflage on Charlotte? It seems like you don't actually want her to be attacked directly, you want her intercept with royal armlet. If they ever do implement content where you really want/need a tank, you wouldn't want to use provoke on her because...

    Except if a banner lasts a week, you can get 7 discount pulls on the banner for 1750 lapis, compared to 5k for 11 pulls with a guaranteed 4*. I did my first 11 pull this week. Not only did I get zero banner units, my guaranteed 4* was Fran. In fact, if I hadn't pulled a 5* Leo, it would have...

    Enchanted Maze - Actual data [It's a 2/3 chance] • /r/FFBraveExvius Makes sense, there was absolutely no way it was 1 in 3 with as many times as I've gotten to the end. But it also makes some of my one and done streaks even more frustrating in retrospect.
