Atlas Reactor: Garrison 4

-
During my hiatus from Atlas Reactor, they introduced a slew of new mods. As a result, I now have another mod set for Garrison that will be my default set for now (previous build here). The key feature of this build is the double dash mod:

(1) Piston Punch - unequipped

Unfortunately, there are no more loadout points left. It was a tough decision for me. At most, I can get 2 loadout points by unequipping Missile Barrage but I rather have the shield than more damage. Shield is the only survival tool Garrison has. Also, there's only one mod I'm interested in i.e. Force Capacitor. The lack of haste is addressed by the mod choices of Hand Cannon and Heavy Metal.

(2) Hand Cannon - Big Shot (3 loadout points)

"Increase range by 1 and increase the arc of the explosion".  This gives greater consistency in hitting and slowing the primary target and hiting secondary targets. Great synergy with the ability's 1 turn cd,

(3) Missile Barrage - First On In (2 loadout points)

"Gain 10 shields until end of next turn". Already explained above.

(4) Heavy Metal - Fuel Rods (3 loadout points)

"Now has 2 stocks. Cooldown increased to 6 turns".  Key feature of this build. I usually use one aggressively to slow down targets if I cannot reach them, and the other one reserved for defensive move but depends on the situation too. Is support nearby? Can I deal fatal damage?

(5) Shockpod - Juiced Up (2 loadout points)

"Allies directly hit by minor power-ups gain an additional 15 health." Ideally used to heal allies and hit enemies at the same time but I wouldn't hesitate to use it just for the healing when allies are in danger of dying.

So the basic idea is that in situation where I cannot hit enemies with Piston Punch, I first use Hand Cannon to catch up. If it's on cd, then use Heavy Metal.


Here's a recent gameplay:

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I ...

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba...

Sudden lower body pain

-
About two weeks ago, my mum developed pain in her pelvic bone, much more on the right side, and squeezing pain in her legs, with occassional spike in pain. She was managing it with paracetamols, 2 tabs three times daily.  Since we didn't know any particular orthopedist in private hospitals (it was only recently that I remember Dr Prashant ), I targeted one at KPJ Penang Specialist Hospital since it's in mainland Penang (instead of on the island). I made appointment for my mum with Dr Joehaimey since he has the earliest suitable date. The moment she walked through his door, he immediately asked her whether the pain from her right side. We were both quite impressed. He was in turn impressed with mum's prepared list of medication that she presented to him on a piece of paper. The key information seems to be the surgery she had back in 2011 to insert titanium plate and screws in her lower spine. He guessed that there's accumalated wear and tear due to aging. So to confirm i...
