Elite Raids Are Meh

May 31, 2023May 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments elite, legendary pokemon, pokemon go, raid

Elite raids are a bit of a new feature. Simply put, they are designated raids that feature a specific Legendary Pokemon at a specific time. Currently, Hoopa Unbound, Regieleki and Regidraco are the Pokemon that have featured in these raids. They have special red eggs and appear at specific times. But how are they? Well, they had a rocky start. When Hoopa appeared in Elite Raids, the boss was insanely tough. Being only really weak to bug types, it took a lot of players to take down. But what made matters worse was how buggy the raids were. Connection issues… [Continue Reading]

No Fun PvE for Overwatch 2

May 30, 2023May 28, 2023 Medic 0 Comments overwatch, overwatch 2

I’m a very casual player when it comes to Overwatch 2. I occasionally play along with my boyfriend, who is much better than me. Of course, I play as a support character, because that’s what I’m best at. But I’m not really a huge fan of the PvP stuff. I much prefer cooperative game modes. Now, back before Overwatch 2 existed, we were told that Overwatch 1 would have something more PvE-oriented. There were plans to have a whole cooperative game mode, complete with skill trees and fancy things like that. This was back in 2019, which feels like forever… [Continue Reading]

Shadow Raids in Pokemon GO

May 29, 2023May 28, 2023 Medic 0 Comments mewtwo, pokemon go, raid, shadow raid

To finish off Season 10: Rising Heroes, Pokemon GO now has Shadow Raids, where you can encounter Shadow Pokemon outside of Team Rocket pokestops and balloons. So are these raids any good? Or is it better to save your raid passes? There’s certainly a few decent raids to do. 1-star and 3-star raids There are currently three types of Shadow Raid. We have 1-star raids which include Bellsprout, Poliwag and Beldum. These 1-star raids work exactly the same as normal raids, except Team GO Rocket have covered everything with their R logo. You don’t need to do anything special for… [Continue Reading]

On Constantly Running Out of Pokemon Storage

May 28, 2023May 18, 2023 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go, storage

In order to play Pokemon GO, you need plenty of Pokemon storage. Even if you play very conservatively, you will eventually run out of Pokemon storage at some point or another. The base amount of storage simply isn’t enough for anything really, and almost every player will run into that same old message, telling you that your storage is full. Once your storage is full, there’s only two things you can do. The first is to go into your inventory and start transferring Pokemon, until you’re back under your limit. Amusingly, this popup can even happen when you’re one off… [Continue Reading]

Fortuna 69 is back!

May 27, 2023May 26, 2023 Medic 0 Comments fortuna, fortuna 69, warframe

Well who would expect this? After over a year of not existing, Fortuna 69 is back! Somehow, in the most recent few hotfixes, as of May 26th, Fortuna 69 is accessible once again, and the same community have returned to make sure it stays open. What is Fortuna 69 though? Well, it’s quite a story. When Fortuna released, there were so many people playing that we had hundreds of instances, mini-servers filled with players. As the Fortuna hype slowly died down, many of these instances disappeared as players dwindled. However, in instance 69, players worked together to keep Fortuna 69… [Continue Reading]

How I’d Fix Raids in Pokemon GO

May 26, 2023May 16, 2023 Medic 0 Comments legendary, pokemon go, raid, suggestion

Raids in Pokemon GO have always been a bit problematic. Between the lack of great Pokemon, needing enough people to do a raid and having to forgo normal raids to do legendary raids due to a lack of people or raid passes, these raids can often be quite awkward. One of the much bigger problems is getting enough players to even do a raid in the first place. However, I have some ideas that might help smooth things out. Make them scale My first idea is that raid bosses should scale to the number of players in the lobby. You… [Continue Reading]

My Favourite Archguns in Warframe

May 25, 2023May 15, 2023 Medic 2 Comments archgun, archwing, massive guns, railjack

Sometimes in Warframe, a normal gun just isn’t big enough. Sure our weapons can do vast amounts of damage and kill huge swathes of enemies, but sometimes you just need something massive. A gun so large that you have to add an anti-gravity component so you can use it. Sometimes you need an Archgun. Archguns are great. Originally appearing in Archwing missions, Archguns are massive, mostly two-handed weapons that can only be used in space because they are so heavy and powerful. Over the years though, we’ve been able to use Archguns more often, either via our Necramechs or by… [Continue Reading]

Amesha – The Only Archwing You’ll Ever Need

May 24, 2023May 14, 2023 Medic 0 Comments amesha, archwing, grind, warframe

Warframe really has a little bit of everything in it. We’ve got journeys to the Void, our own private ships and landing crafts, and we even have our own space ship, the Railjack, with which we can do missions in space. But before Railjack, we did still have something of our own that we can fly with. Archwings and Archwing content aren’t that amazing, but they are vital to both Railjack, open worlds and they even have their own mission types. But despite there being five different Archwings (four plus one prime), you’ll only ever need one. And no, it… [Continue Reading]

Fennekin Community Day

May 23, 2023May 21, 2023 Medic 0 Comments community day, delphox, fennekin, fire, pokemon, pokemon go

It’s that time of year where we get another starter Pokemon for a Community Day. Fennekin is a cute little fiery starter, and the 21st was a chance to catch a huge number of them. However, we’ve had a lot of fire starter community days, so does Fennekin’s community day stand out? Was it any good? It’s alright. The community day had some nice features. Double candy and double stardust were nice bonuses, but for us, the weather wasn’t amazing. We had a few scattered showers, and the clouds were threatening to rain on us. We actually decided to walk… [Continue Reading]

D&D 5e: A Complete Guide to Sidekicks

May 22, 2023December 14, 2023 aabicus 0 Comments d&d, Dungeons & Dragons, dungeons and dragons, guide, roleplay, roleplaying, rules, sidekick

Pelor help me, I’ve fallen down another rabbit hole of obscure D&D mechanics. And these are even less likely than usual to ever happen in my actual games. But I don’t care because the sidekick rules are honestly really cool and revolve around one of my favorite concepts: playable NPC/monsters! Introduced in Dragon of Icespire Peak (and heavily fleshed out in Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything), the sidekick rules are a system whereby a normally-unplayable creature can gain its own class levels that let it grow stronger alongside a party of regular PCs. There are three Sidekick classes (Warrior, Expert, and Spellcaster)… [Continue Reading]
