Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

Second Seals cannot reclass an unit into a promoted class, they'll be reverted to a base class
You'd have to grind him until Lv.10 to then use a Master Seal and then promote him to Swordmaster

False.
If you're in a promoted class and above level 10, you can reclass into a Lv1 promoted class.

Edit: This only applies to Awakening's Second Seals.

...What? But I damn well KNOW what happened. He got level 20. I reclassed him, 5 levels later he got Astra
EDIT: Thanks Buu!

So people are talking about the 10th anniversary of both Mother 3 and Okami.

I really need to get back to beating the EarthBound series and I'm hoping Capcom will release Okami in the Wii U eShop for me to try it (as they are starting to add their Wii games to the eShop).

Speaking of... People have been yapping about Mother 3 being revealed today during the Star Fox stream (because Star Fox and Mother have so much in common).

And I gotta say, I can't wait for people to complain about the Star Fox Zero stream not having something unrelated to Star Fox. It'll be a magical time.

Also jesus christ, I finished the 4th episode of Daredevil. Holy **** is that a way to make an intimidating antagonist

No. If you are around Level 15 or higher as a Promoted class in Awakening, you can use a Second Seal to change into another Promoted class.
Edit: 'd. But still, I haven't played Awakening in a while and even I still mostly remember that bit.

Star Fox Zero has made me wonder if Slippy and Peppy could actually work in Smash.

I mean, Star Fox Guard gives Slippy a chance to be a glass cannon stage control character with turrets and their upgrades at his disposal, plus his mechanic skills can always allow him to access certain Arwing tools. Of course, being Slippy, he's easily knocked out, but he will try to put up a fight.

Peppy's a bit of a stretch, but he'd definitely have some skills that'd be useful in battle. Perhaps he could be the Gouken to Fox's Ryu (and Falco's Ken... and Wolf's Akuma... don't act like other fighting games don't have a brick ton of clone type characters) and be using more powerful versions of the basic Fox skillset. Like, being able to use his Reflector in some more offensive ways, or being able to charge his Blaster. Hell, the Side Special could be a Barrel Roll (or, excuse me, aileron roll) that launches him forward in a multi-hit attack with a powerful finisher.

I mean, I'd still like to see Wolf returning as a priority (with a Star Wolf airstrike as a Final Smash), but the other two Star Fox crew members (especially a Guard-based Slippy) would be interesting additions. I'd argue these three are the best options at the moment, but I don't want to get into an argument about Krystal's merits.

How the heck did I find Draygon's room already?

Did not expect to just fly through Maridia this quickly...or I should say swim

Then again there's a bit i haven't covered so I still have some exploring to do in this place...

... Are people actually saying this?

Have they learned nothing from all of the instances a Smash reveal was predicted in an unrelated Direct? Because that happened like 500 times.

 

[Pazzo.]

Happy birthday to Lucina...!

Today I preordered SFZ and picked up (Ma boi) the Roy amiibo. Hopefully Fox and the gang can return strong come Friday.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Wait a sec...There's no reason for 'bizarre' in the thread title...Unless... Opossum you finally got around to watching Jojo?

Spoiler: Daredevil

The car door thing? That's the scene that gets everyone. Wilson Fisk is a great villain, and arguably one of the best in the entire MCU. He gets even better, if you can believe it.

Jesus


That is quite the resume. Over half. . . At leasf most of them seem like they were near guarantees.

Ezea got a figure? Not complaining because i love rebels (even if im behind ) but a little surprised.

I desperately need to get a Stitch figure even though i have no interest in the game

Yep! Ezra, Zeb, Kanan, and Sabine all got figures, while Hera got ripped off. There's actually quite a clamor for Hera to get her own figure now that she was left out.

Stitch goes on sale pretty often. The other week he was $5 at Gamestop, but my local store sold out before I could get him. He and Elsa are the two biggest figures on my to-buy list right now.

Well, if I knew this, it could have certainly spared me of a lot of grinding

You don't need a reason to reference Jojo

Maridia is the most weirdly paced area in the game. Just make sure you get the beam ipgrade that makes you feel like a bad ass (unless you already have it lol)

Yesssss.

I actually have all of the 2.0 Originals, and by far, Stitch is my favorite. He's got a great set of blasters and a Spin Dash that makes travelling fun (albeit a bit more difficult). Donald is a close second, though. Temper tantrums are satisfying when it comes to melee attacks. I see him everywhere when it comes to 2.0 figures, especially Best Buy.

My two big wants right now are Baloo and Ant-Man, with Boba Fett / Hawkeye coming in close too. Luckily, my birthday's next week so I might be seeing them and a Ryu amiibo sometime soon :D.

Yesssss.

I've been way too into thinking about movesets for potential Smash characters. I've had Tetra / Skull Kid on the mind forever, and now I'm crtically thinking about two characters from a franchise I've barely played.

[Soul.]

So, Legendary Pokémon names for Sun and Moon. Interesting, maybe CoroCoro will actually have the designs (and their type) ready. Though, is Marshadow really a Legendary Pokémon?

If the starter names are real that's pretty cool too. Grass-type Owl would be so amazing.

Helps that "Grass Owl" is an actual species.

Yeah, its weird, looking at the map its like I knew exactly where I was going when I really had no clue...though I have played the game before so perhaps I was subconsiously knowing where to go without actually knowing it...

So far the space jump is the only upgrade I found here after defeating Draygon (which is going to make exploring the rest of the area SOOOO much easier)...but I'm pretty much going to be rather thorough...

I can't help but feel a little spoiled by zero-mission seeing as Samus can grab ledges in that game...and wall-jumping was so much easier also...(though I am getting the hang of it in this game as I pretty much got the timing down)

I own both Ant-Man and Baloo, as well as Hawkeye, and I can say they're all definitely fun to play.

Ant-Man's pretty technical, but once you upgrade him so that he can combo out of his Ant Dash, he's amazing. Definitely a glass cannon though. He can't take a hit unless you upgrade him to get a shield, and even then, it depletes fast. He's almost like the Little Mac of the game, only with the best jumps in the game. Seriously, he actually ties with Hulk for highest jump, beating out Judy despite her being advertised as the best jumper. And he goes Giant-Man. That's always fun.

Baloo is outright one of my top three favorite figures. He's such a love letter to fans of him and the original film. His projectile is similar to Donald's in that, if you hold the button, it becomes even stronger, and stuns. His finisher where he rips a palm tree out of the ground and whacks foes with it is fantastic, and his special move is really fun to use. All in all he's just fantastic.

Hawkeye is a ranged character by definition, and when you upgrade his bow to launch three explosive arrows at once, he really does some damage and has a means of crowd control. However, he doesn't have crowd control when they swarm him from all sides. His aerial assault, while awesome looking, is on the weak side, and his special move is kind of meh as far as hit detection (might be because I didn't upgrade it fully though). All in all, still a really great character. I just wish he had a super jump like Black Widow though, which is the only thing keeping me from using him more than her.

I figured I'd ask you as well. I'm thinking of picking up Battlegrounds. How does New Cap compare to Old Cap? I really love Old Cap, but if New Cap is considerably better, it might be upgrade time.

If you thought Polygon was bad before well

What a ****ing hack. If he/she were writing for an actual reputable news site, he/she wouldn't be after that. He/she gets paid to write a review, and lo and behold, he/she says it isn't a review.


Childishness and unprofessionalism at its finest. Glad I have them blacklisted on AdBlock, so no money for them.

Edit: Whoops accidental DP. Mods please merge.

 

[AreJay25]

If you thought Polygon was bad before well

This isn't a review of Polygon. Save for very rare, extreme circumstances, AreJay25 reviews require that a game review be completed, or at least a good-faith effort be made to complete it.

I am not reading any more Polygon.

I didn't have a bad impression of Polygon. Until now, that is.

Well, the game drops tomorrow and you can be the judge yourself.

Polygon have been the definition of unprofessional since their inception and that will never change.

That explains them being twins. Must have been from the same cell

Nope. But both were born from a dumpster fire.


Atleast Hulk Hogan leg dropped Gawker so Slowtaku is dying quicker than before but Polygon hasn't been hit yet but should be.

Nitpicking, but Mudkip is much more of a mudskipper/mudpuppy than an axolotl. Wooper's line is the definitive axolotl line.
