Yeah, that power was alredy in my setup with my palms so I just tried it to check if it could do something usefull to you. Sometimes I saw you walk towards me from far away and activate invisivility in the way. I noticed that the holy power whatever was called (I'll check the name after finishing this stage) showed the damage effect even when you were invisible, but it was hard to see those.

Though I think you noticed that and bail out when I activated it a couple of times lol. I was shooting around me and you were alredy fighting jokkir in other place.

Yea, at first i realized everytime you activated it, i couldnt hit you and it kept hurting me. So when you activated it, i just stayed at a distance and tried to do some damage to the other guy.

Time to test then!!!

Edit: Or you know.. I could just look it up

Edit 2: The power is called Heavenly Light, nothing about being invulnerable.

I got a 240 Laser Staff :D

I think this might be the weapon I use from now on. I have been using Twinbellows Cannon and Dark Pit Staff, and while the Laser Staff doesn't have a lot of extra stuff/properties [the cannon and that other staff do], it's pretty damn fast and powerful... I even beat a flying level on 8.0 (first time I have been able to do that, currently at chapter 13).

Gah, that doesn't really work for me. My last final is the day after, and it's the one I need to study for the most. Tuesday, Thursday, or even today would be better.

Jeez, this is priceless. Team Heroes is still adamant that they did the right thing in illegally impersonating KirbyKid in order to "expose his cheating." Check out the latest development:

Quote from: Mirpkered

It's really unfortunate that someone was so desperate to win that they would stoop to cheating. It's a tournament for fun, and not glory.

I wish the remaining teams the best of luck and look forward to the Semi-Final rounds!

Thanks,
Mirpkered

Quote:
Yes. I, Kai from team heroes, have only tried to allow KirbyKid to reveal his cheating ways by making him admit it! In no way was there a crime involved! When I was trying to reveal KirbyKid's cheating ways in order for other opponents to watch out, my team Heroes ended up being disqualified for KirbyKid's cheating instead. I am dissapointed in how Neal got the wrong idea out of our KirbyKid "impersonation of admitting to crime". Team Heroes are devestated by this occurence, and probably will never join a tournament again due to this incident. Unless this issue is fixed, placing us back into the semifinals, we shall be motivated once again in the name of Nintendo!

Good days.

Just eternally baffling. I'm not even really sure what they're accusing KirbyKid of doing wrong anymore, because they change their story every other comment. I think KirbyKid's ultimate crime was just winning against Palutena-backed Team Heroes, who I guess are supposedly unbeatable.

Feh. If they're backed by Palutena, we're backed by friggin' Hades. I'd face them in an exhibition match just to show them up, but I'm afraid they'd frame me for murder :P

Burning Palms are pretty good. I had a mediocre one (like 260 value) that I rocked with, and I didn't even understand how I was doing so well with it. People just suck at dodging I guess.

But with this Magus club I can just run around like crazy, melee dash killing most enemies in one hit and they're paralysed if they survive. Only went through stage 1 and 2 with it, it's probably terrible in most stages where you can't just melee everything.
The problem with the Magnus Club in single player is that some bosses, like the level 3 and 7 bosses, are just absolute hell without having some range on higher difficulties.

IMO, if you have a "1 shot win" opponent, put Warp or Angelic Missile in. Angelic Missile is really underrated and doesn't take up many slots.

Maybe 7 seconds, definitely not 20.

The later levels, with a +3 hearts weapon, yield over 30K hearts per run. With decent weapons costing 100K+, it's still not efficient. Most people grind level 20 for lots of weapons since it's not too hard. The mode, boss rush, also gives lots of goodies if you can beat it (I got 3 320+ weapons on 6.0).

Personally, I'm trying to find a way to AFK for weapons since I'm like you, but I also don't have the time to grind all day.

The first level actually has a total of 5 chests if you include the boss reward, which is pretty nice for how short and easy it is. Weapon values tend to be between 280 and 320 on 9.0.

Step 1: Heart Bonus +3
Step 2: Heart Booster
Step 3: Remove pants!

I find that Heart Bonus helps a LOT, so I have a +3 on like half a dozen 300+ weapons.

I usually try to clear an achievement while running through them. I'm finished with about 60% of them.

Yeah I've got a few arms with good stats but I just don't really get them. They're supposedly one of the best weapon types but they just seem crappy to me.

Though I have gotten so used to my Fairy Orbitars (fast running, fast charge, massive long range damage) that most weapons don't seem to work very well ahah.

Are you serious?!

Magnus Clubs have the highest melee strength in the game (a six-starred melee combo does upwards of 300 damage), and their charge shot, however powerful it may be, only has a range of about 20 metres. They key to using them is to ambush the opponent and then melee the crap out of them.
