Frost Could Do With Some Updating

May 7, 2021April 28, 2021 Medic 0 Comments frost, qol, warframe

The other day, I fancied a change. We were doing a sortie and one of the missions was Mobile Defense. Normally, I would grab Khora or Limbo and not worry about anything. But I decided to do something else. It had been ages since I last played Frost, so I decided to give him a go. Halfway into the mission, I realized why I stopped playing Frost. Frost feels very clunky. That’s kinda understandable though. Frost is a really old frame. In fact, he’s so old that he actually was one of the first frames to get Primed. And that… [Continue Reading]

Two Weeks Without Team Rocket

May 6, 2021April 27, 2021 Medic 0 Comments grunt, pokemon go, team rocket, team rocket go

In the middle of April, a Pokemon GO update broke Team Rocket fights. The bug didn’t affect everyone, but it would basically soft-lock the game. So, to keep the game playable, Team Rocket was disabled. Honestly? I thought this would be fine. I’d survive without Team Rocket, even if I was at 5/6 radar components. It’d be fine, right? Well, no. I kinda lost interest in the game. I was actually kinda surprised by this. Originally, I thought I’d be fine. But I quickly stopped opening the game as regularly. Normally, I’d use Team Rocket fights for the stardust and… [Continue Reading]

I hate Wither Rose farms

May 5, 2021April 25, 2021 Medicinal Warlock 0 Comments failure, minecraft, testing

Wither Rose farms are something I always wanted to build but am too intimidated by. Wither Roses are useful for mob farms since they can kill mobs with the Wither effect, and is one of the two farmable sources of black dye, the other being ink sacs. However, Wither Rose farms require having a Wither, and they are not the most cooperative mob out there. The most reliable Wither Rose farm design I’ve found so far is by Rays Works, and is almost foolproof. However, it needs to be built in The End. And honestly, I do not want to… [Continue Reading]

A Cheap Coward’s Guide to the Steel Path

May 4, 2021April 25, 2021 Medic 0 Comments guide, newbie, specter, steel path, tips, tricks, warframe

The Steel Path can seem intimidating. All enemies are over level 100, and they’re all heavily armoured. The Corpus have tons of shields and the Infested are… Well, actually, the Infested are fine, as long as there are no Swarm Mutalist Moas around. Because they give the Infested tons of armour. Either way, the Steel Path is not a place for casual players. However, you don’t need to spend forever formaing your gear and making super OP ultra umbral forma builds. In fact, you can get through the Steel Path very cheaply. But only if you are patient. Can’t hit… [Continue Reading]

8 Years of Warframe, 5 Years of Nice Stats

May 2, 2021April 23, 2021 Medic 0 Comments curiosity, dex, nice, stats, warframe, warframe 8th anniversary

Sometimes the passing of time just doesn’t feel right. You sit there, playing your game and time can just fly. In Warframe’s case, it’s been 8 years of time just flying by. Somehow. No, I don’t get it myself. But since Warframe is celebrating and has released some cool stuff, might as well have a lookie ourselves. Anniversary goodies! Normal people tend to get given gifts on their birthdays. However, games aren’t really normal people. So instead they tend to give out stuff instead. In Warframe’s case, the Dex anniversary gear is making a return over the next couple of… [Continue Reading]

How I would have done a Sustainability Event in Pokemon GO

May 1, 2021April 24, 2021 Medic 0 Comments event, idea, pokemon go, ramble, sustainability week

A couple of weeks ago, we had a Sustainability event in Pokemon GO. As part of a sustainability campaign by Niantic, all its games are getting events. Mostly to raise awareness, I think. Now, I don’t play Wizards Unite or Ingress Prime, but I do play Pokemon GO. And I can tell you this: the event was kinda boring. And it didn’t really raise awareness. But it’s not hard to have made this event more interesting. So here’s how we’ll do it. First off, a summary of the actual Sustainability Week. There wasn’t much to it. Some Pokemon in raids.… [Continue Reading]

Honestly, as cool as she seems, we could have replaced her with pretty much any Corpus character.

On Warframe and Earworms

April 30, 2021April 19, 2021 Medic 0 Comments music, sleeping in the dark below, soundtrack, warframe, we all lift together

If you asked me what the best part of the Call of the Tempestarii update was, my answer would be obvious. The music. Warframe’s soundtrack has always been amazing. And for this update, they blew it out of the water. Vaguely nautical pun intended, thanks to Warframe’s newest earworm. Sleeping in the Dark Below is an amazing space sea shanty. In fact, it’s been stuck in my head for days. An amazing, catchy song. Lyrical songs in Warframe are kinda rare. So when they do pop up, I’m always happy. Sleeping in the Dark Below ticks all the boxes as… [Continue Reading]

Genshin Impact – The End

April 29, 2021April 19, 2021 Medicinal Warlock 0 Comments Genshin Impact

I’ve went through what Genshin Impact is, and the good and bad of this game. Genshin is a game I like and enjoy a lot. I have a group of friends that I play with regularly, and I am in a Discord group with like-minded people. There is always something to do, and something to look forward to. The game itself is fun and enjoyable, and there’s always something to explore, try, and learn. The team-of-4 mechanic is amazing, and trying to fit four characters into a team that works best together is like assembling a 4-piece 5-dimensional jigsaw puzzle… [Continue Reading]

Genshin Impact – The Bad

April 28, 2021April 19, 2021 Medicinal Warlock 0 Comments Genshin Impact

No game in the world is perfect, and Genshin Impact definitely isn’t. And oh boy does it have a lot of problems. The Gacha It’s not about the rates, nor the pity system, nor the IRL cost per pull. It’s the fact that gacha exists in the game. Academic research has shown that lootboxes are linked to gambling problems, in adults and adolescents. And gacha is equivalent with lootboxes since both have the players spend currency for a chance to acquire something rare and/or powerful. And in Genshin Impact, you pull for characters and weapons, which is vital for gameplay.… [Continue Reading]

Genshin Impact – The Good

April 27, 2021April 19, 2021 Medicinal Warlock 0 Comments Genshin Impact

There are many things that Genshin Impact does right. After all, there has to be a reason why the mobile version managed to hit one billion dollars in earnings within six months. These are my own personal reasons as to why I like this game so much. Gameplay The gameplay is a third-person hack-and-slash affair. Each character has a normal attack, a charged attack, an Elemental Skill (an offensive/utility ability on cooldown), and an Elemental Burst (an ult basically, requires energy generated from Elemental Skill to charge up). A team of four is active during regular gameplay, with one on-field… [Continue Reading]
