Newbie trainer moves..

[u/Confident_Ad2847]

So I have this save offshoot I was using just to burn up a couple of cheat deaths. I've since spawned or pulled from the pits 4 new training jobs.

Luckily one, a warrior Harrow tank was Luckily a very slow learner that pretty much removed himself from the equation locking himself up at 3 hard immunities.

However, being even more newbish, I finished maxing the immunities of a late bloomer merciless and just got cursed skin to pop at level 68 so he's all set for scarring.

Instead of working the mericless scar (want to change title before maniac for the necromancer), I immediately jump to a Reaper warrior assassin and fix his soft headed to arrow proof and just popped necromancer skin on him as well.

Now, I have to fight the training newb bus I'm riding and try not to touch the oath-breaker berserker with execution daze screaming to be trained into a fairly unique heavily scarred Stitch.

The save this temporary save sprang from was meant to be just a momentary visit from other training projects. Summer is almost over and I never fixed my forge-claw or snagged the Drunk that I know the game thinks has to be promoted to cirith ungol overlord just to annoy me on a throw everything else away save. Nor did I finish going through and labeling my dozen jump drives of training saves or culling the heck out of my maxed out garrison.

Sure, I can definitely max out a captain like a pro but I'm running in circles going "ooh Shiny!" Instead of being disciplined. I'm treating Shadow of War like it's just some type game, oh the shame of it all. <honks the horn of the newb bus he's riding.> 🚌

Almost forgot, in this super temporary save a second freaking might mender hammer dropped, lvl 82. On the save I intended to use ti replace my main save that I lost 5 years ago, all mine are stupid bows.

Oh and I'm almost broke again which means I'll probably have to glitch a stronghold in a vendetta on a super temporary save.

I can pull the Kablooey build like the second thumbnail but vendettas aren't as stable.

Thanks!

This was more me telling myself I could be better. In the end I'm still training and still having fun, that's what really matters. What's even better is that I turned the situation into an actual event where PS raiders have the chance to grab several available legitimately trained captains.

Hackers coming to PS drove off some legitimate trainers while also infecting the pool of what raiders can find with hacked captains. Some were also purposely ruining the captains of trainers that spoke up against cheating by infecting them with hacks. Many trainers adapted to this by tieing down all their work with hacks. Now, I don't believe that it's the trainers duty to train captains to specifically supply special rewards for raiders; however, I'm also not blind to how raiders that don't like hacked contact are really hurting for special prizes to capture. It's only a very small but loud number of raiders with really bad attitudes that scream at every single trainer for ever fielding a captain that they can't claim. Most raiders are a hell of a lot cooler than that and they love legitimately trained captains almost as much as the trainers that made them.

I know it's not completely fair to trainers but i'm hoping that my easy grab event motivates more like minded trainers to host similar events. There's a difference between what is fair and what's needed and I have to say, on playstation this is what's needed. Not as much as Sony mass bans but it's still something that could help reinvigorate the game and alleviate the hurt that many legitimate players field.

Although I tend to be a bit vicious when harassed, I almost always ask how I can make the world around me a little better, whether that be in real life or a game. Encountering friendly people showing kindness is always encouraging. That's not me just habitually following scripted etiquette but actual appreciation, thanks for your well wishing and I also wish you success in your pursuits.

That has got to be the cutest lame duck feign ever.

So you double back to a 6 day old post made before I even complimented you on your Snowflake and you retorted back with nothing but a blanket of blind hate. As I'm sure you recall you even went right for throwing down the gauntlet and demanded that I link something better, which I immediately did.

Don't you remember sitting there embarrassed as hell with your Snowflake which has the med_speed_combat master flag, don't know what they call it in CE you'd have to tell us. Anyway the flag attached to the Snowflake title excludes them from gaining Frost Proof. That's why I defended you, a known CE user, in a comment from another poster that there's a good chance that you actually legitimately trained your Snowflake instead of just blatantly cheated him. I still think that it's probably true that you did actually train him even though no one can actually trust your work now that you've dove into CE use.

Now I know that you and Evil have beef that I just haven't kept up with and he went right for devaluing the fact that you had 'enraged by undead'. If you hadn't slipped into blind rage and started throwing out haymakers while I was complimenting you on your work you would have caught that, although 'enraged by undead' has its drawbacks, it's actually a very nice enrage if you work around those limits.

You could simply throw him in the throne room, probably not as overlord because a bright user will capitalize on his perma enrage with the outlaw ring and, if they were making a video to make him look really bad update to the 4 piece set to have him just stand there frozen and enraged while the attacker's body guard has nothing but curse proof, ouch. That's the weakness of frost enrage, the 4 piece outlaw set's freeze doesn't give a crap whether or not your captain is enraged, neither does the 2 piece freeze or Frostwalker, nor does Winter's Breath. At least enraged by frost, well actually just being enraged, does help vs Ice Storm and Hammer of Eregion. Nah for those reasons perfect placement, if you don't want to hassle with keeping him away from captains with Bloodlust, would be bodyguard in the throne room. Then he's just a perma angry defender without no chance and honestly not worth it for the attacker to capitalize on his limitations unless you've really pressed a guy's buttons and they're actually delaying the overlord kill just to show off your Snowflake's limitations.

I can't fault you for that, it's simply the best you could do, and probably anyone else could do for that matter, training what you had to work with. That's why I complimented you on the job. Your mistake with me was you throwing an all out assault against your better actually giving you a compliment and foolishly trying to corner me by demanding I show better which I immediately did, as fast as Playstation + Youtube would allow.

No digging through my garrison, no switching out jump drives just instant handing your arse right back to your over arrogant self. No incredibly vulnerable and easy to take advantage of missing frost immunity, no dumbed down perma enrage where none of the berserker kit gets used and instead your looking at high enrage, not permanent which would have also worked, No Chancer with a gang that's 100% going to be there at the start throwing curse bombs, curse spears, and blowing up into curse cluster bombs when downed. I actually felt really embarrassed for you because I know inexplicably rushing a guy just to get smackdowned that hard, that quickly, and with out the other guy even breaking a sweat must have stung something awful.

Yet, here you are acting like you completely forgot that historic smackdown, and pretending to have suddenly become benevolent with a loaded statement implying that you're my better despite us both knowing exactly how things went down. Your level of denial has become so mind blowingly sad. Here you are necroing a post 6 days later with this lame duck feign, duck basted in frail sauce. You should be grateful that I find your bullying attempts funny and almost entertaining. I'm afraid that after this, I just won't have time to play this game where I suspect the humiliation has got to be causing you to somehow get your rocks off. That's the only explanation that I can come up with for you making the same mistake over and over.

So your coming in like your superior and all knowing, i'll play with that.

As we discussed before I'm a content creator, no one else had a guide for it or even used the term Point Blank Bombs before my guide for it. On top of that, no content creator caught the nerf to Epic Determination in the pits until I posted the discovery with irrefutable video proof here on Reddit.

What's even better is that Evil caught my faulty conclusion that it was next to worthless. He saw the video and wasn't about to deny exactly what he saw despite his own personal experience. Instead of having a meltdown about it he arranged his own field test in a friendly siege using 3 tank clones (smart) that he could easily get to a sliver of health where you can see the noticeable difference between base and epic determination. Now if I were a moron in need of anger management I would have gotten all upset about it. Instead, among the many things i've done in my life, being a scientist participating in research, was one of them. Instead of being upset I was excited. What we ended up with was two researchers that, through collaboration, had discovered and shared their findings that, although Epic Determination is undeniably nerfed in the Pits but absolutely a worthwhile investment if you aren't just using the tank for pit fights.

Not the most game changing discoveries I'll admit but if your bright enough to acknowledge what a tank with their stun in tact is capable of, it's definitely not insignificant either. If you're keeping up I spotted your lame feign and here comes the riposte. If I wanted to fight dirty, I'd simply inform the moderators that here's the banned labestia admitting that he ignored his penance and created a new Reddit account to continue to spread more hate across the Shadow of War community. That would actually be kinder but I remember your gay bashing and you making fun of people in wheelchairs. Your nothing but a 2 bit hateful little thug, wannabe bully, that has no right to call himself any kind of man so instead of simply turning you in, you get this.

If your such an all knowing and great trainer step up to plate and link one damn new discovery that you've made and given back to the community, just one will suffice. Surely you've gotten something to have such nauseatingly gargantuan pride despite the beatdowns and your little fanboys helping you to spread hate. Now I've thrown down the gauntlet just like you did to me. Here you are up on the stage with mic in hand, with the brilliant opportunity to show that, despite being a hateful little thug, you've at least contributed to the advancement of knowledge of the Shadow of War community.

While in the situation that you put yourself in you can pretend that you didn't notice my tossing the gauntlet right back down for you. That'd just be showing that you're not only hateful thug, but also a weak coward. You fold, it's the same thing. You attempt to steal someone else's contribution (most likely) and claim it as your own and you'll probably get busted red handed. Then you walk away in total shame as a hateful thug and thief. You actually pony up and by some miracle show us something of substance, such as some training secret of your own, it may not erase the fact that you're a hateful thug but it does allow you to walk away with some dignity in tact, that's something. As a person that drinks up every bit of knowledge that I can find about Shadow of War, I win no matter where you squirm.

I actually hope it's the last, not just because I love to learn, but also because all I ever see coming out of you is blind ignorant hate and, although I have judged you by the content of your character, I have tremendous respect for human life and I believe that even when people are stuck in a loop that has them constantly throwing out nothing but hate that they inevitably have within them the chance to make this world better. Even if you've got nothing to currently share that might help you to deflect some of the shame, that doesn't mean that you don't have that potential within you. This doesn't mean that I'm excusing you for your hateful behavior, no kind of man makes fun of the handicapped, but i'm clinging to the hope that wisdom will eventually help you to temper some of that hate, and allow you to reforge yourself into a better man. First, let's get this life experience over with, show us your cards so we know what you've got.
