I'm a little confused about them.
I'm trying to use them to grind out the Battlepass but they don't seem to refresh. I've finished missions on two heroes/commanders and when the next day rolled over only one of them were given one new mission.
There's a minute long timer but it doesn't seem to actually count down to anything.
Can someone explain how they work if anyone's figured it out?
(Fury for attention)
I have to be honest, despite this being the first I've seen in the series I've always been a little harsh towards it. I preferred the darker themes of Chaotic Century & Guardian Force.
I've been revisiting the series through clips in my algorithm lately and it's made me realize I've been sleeping on this season for a while now. I've always thought of it as the 'fun one' that didn't have a lot of substance. I suppose that's still true when compared & contrasted to the seasons before it but I'm understanding that fun doesn't necessarily mean shallow.
I'm really coming around on this one and starting to appreciate it for all it brings to the table. I think it's got the slickest animation in the series, a solid batch of memorable characters, a concise (albeit basic) storyline and a really killer score.
Personally, I think it's ridiculous that patch notes often only appear on their Discord.
Whenever an update drops we have to wait until someone from the community shares the screenshots here on Reddit and I don't think that's acceptable. A couple of points I want to make:
1.) Discord is one of those platforms that not everyone wants to use. Similarly, not all of us who use it want to be in large channels for every game we play just to keep up with what's changing.
2.) Reddit's mod team consists of Alderon devs. The idea that none of them are given the additional task to upload patch notes when updates go live seems like a weird oversight to me.
3.) Alderon & Path of Titans have a website with a blog. This is, in my opinion, the first place patch notes should be going live.
I think their patch notes are, otherwise, pretty great.
They're highly detailed and even occasionally include explanations on why certain playables were changed but their accessibility is lacking and I'd really like to see this changed.
I've been such a devout Charged Bite user but the stamina drain & wind-up makes it pretty poor for 1v1s and I've been running this thing solo far more often these days. I've started experimenting with with Thrash vs. Swerve and I can't decide which I prefer.
Swerve has a high stamina cost but also supports a slightly more defensive & less stamina intensive playstyle so it's not the biggest deal. It's a little awkward to hit and I personally struggle against large opponents with it.
Thrash is quite nice, especially since it doesn't cost stamina, but I feel like the recoil definitely wears me down much quicker and I come out of fights far more battered than when I run Swerve. It's so much comfier for larger targets, though. Should I balance it out with Bulwark & Solid Frame? I suppose the 25% additional damage from Robust Jaws is contributing to further recoil damage, yeah?
I don't personally think Swerve is made redundant by Juke being a fixed skill on Cerato because there's a slight delay in being able to attack & Swerve has the attack built-in. Also, chaining them has been beneficial in special circumstances for me.
What do you guys think is the right call here?
