trying out tremor team this week and uh i wasn't aware how cracked they were caveat: you need the slime wine glass which makes all their stuff trigger whenever. also go for the frog eyeballs that lead to extremely dumb poo poo like this  casual -30 offense/defense level on turn 2 e: ofc tremor still isn't the best(i actually got outclashed that turn lol, gently caress you ichtys) but still not being mono-typed and getting free boosts/debuffs is fun Yinlock fucked around with this message at 10:14 on Jan 4, 2024 |

if you zoom in on the armband it says H so this is Training Team Captain Outis. Faust was Control Team.

 Betting Outis has an ammo mechanic. Starts with 6 bullets, when she runs out skills that use Ammo gain attack weight that randomly target characters slower than her then she gets 6 bullets back afterwards. Also it's fitting that probable traitor Outis gets the EGO that shoots your allies in the back.

You've got her incessant false praise while she very clearly doesn't think highly of Dante, her Cinq story where she's actively attempting to sabotage Don and Sinclair behind their backs so she can take their spot as Director, you've got her source material - specifically the story where Odysseus calls himself Outis - being about gaining the trust of someone then stabbing them in the back (specifically, the story goes that Odysseus told the cyclops that his name was Outis, or Nobody, so when he put out the cyclops's eye all he could say to his brothers was "Nobody put my eye out! It was Nobody!"), you've got White Night's clock going "Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil," and finally...  This expression!

I will, however, concede that the WhiteNight thing has an alternative interpretation - if you consider Faust as the one that chooses and not Dante, then that opens up Dante as the traitrous disciple. Also there's a good chance that these traitor flags are all just deliberate red herrings since there's just so many of them. quote:e3: sorry this is probably more combative than it should be, it's late GilliamYaeger fucked around with this message at 11:53 on Jan 4, 2024 |

One of your subordinates, a notably ambitious one who has positioned herself as your trusted number two, says in an interview with the press that you are incompetent at your job and implies that she would be better at your job than you are, only being a little worse at...let's go with accounting as the job you're doing while showing off their people skills through her interview with the member of the press and puffing themselves up in the process. No? She was accurately stating that Sinclair isn't exactly suited for the job he has which is entirely true. Again she was puffing herself up a bit but there wasn't some Betrayal going on there. IMO it all comes down to an obsession with authority in general. Probably owing to the whole soldier thing Outis likes having strong direction and gets antsy when that isn't the case. Dante may not be the firmest leader but they do call shots while Sinclair just kinda waffles around when not in kill mode. If nobody's properly giving direction then she goes into careerist mode and starts trying to climb the ladder. Yinlock fucked around with this message at 12:29 on Jan 4, 2024 |

Speaking of MD3 and Outis, Poise fusion gift + commemorative coin + swapping Outis's s1 for s3 twice, is really, really funny. Noticeably less funny when I'm fighting scribe, but still pretty funny.

She probably need other people to keep her grounded or she goes into her "Ulysses" mode but then again, we know next to nothing about her so all the bets are on.

I'm seriously considering UT4 for base Hong Lu because of course Hong Lu privilege makes him actually good. The rest of the options... yeesh. G Outis? Mariachi Sinclair?

Mariachi Sinclair has one of the best support passives in the game and absolutely nothing that would justify bringing him into the actual battle itself. SunCliff can at least absorb hits pretty well and do a bit of damage once in the while.

I don't think Outis is a traitor but I can't imagine she'd hesitate selling out the rest of the Sinners if her sin was on the line. No more than we saw Ishmael willing to become a monster to finish her event. Heathcliff's situation is all kinds of uncomfortable, I can imagine him snapping and doing some really stupid poo poo, even as stupid as Don's attack on the K-corp blockade. Don I think could delude herself into thinking she's the hero and heroes have to do dirty work. Faust could see everyone as irrelevant as long as she progresses (not to mention what kind of bargains she might have made), Mersault can't even pretend to care. What I'm saying is that these are very, very flawed people and this is their first chance to become more than they were.

Honestly UT4 base Hong Lu is the best choice for filling out the sinking team. He's got okay stats all around and isn't a giant PITA to use, which makes him infinitely better then SadShower and Mariachiboy. Plus, as a 0 he's cheap to get up to speed.

so Magic Bullet was a WAW EGO. And last Walpurgis Night, we had Regret Faust as an ID, and Regret Meursault (TETH) as an EGO. Assuming that Outis herself, and the two with WAW already, are off-limits, who's gonna get the Magic Bullet EGO?

GiantRockFromSpace posted:Why exactly? Besides SP management NClair is just good by virtue of being good. My entire strategy with liusquad revolves around spamming lust skills to get a bajillion whistles to break the SP curve over my knee, and NClair is not nearly as good when you're regularly pushing 30-40 SP by floor 2 of MD. A fifth burn ID that isn't named NClair would be literally perfect for this playstyle, especially since it would let me use the fusion EGO gift.
