Oh I remember old discussions about how the language in TES is like, based on a few comments and descriptions it's probably less like Latin and more like the in-game Altmeris.

Acid controller does not remove acid when destroyed, it stays on everything after, and as far as I'm aware that's not a bug. The reason some of the enemies we're coated was because they emerged after it was destroyed. Everything else stayed coated as usual.

Nice video. Was waiting to hear about the Flame Behemoths (huge bias for fire and DoTs), and the suspense was certainly there when you mentioned that it's generally good when a squad has a science mech in place of a brute mech, then that there's one other base game S tier squad left. Was hoping that they'd excel from push angle options with fire not harming buildings. Have to agree with the damage issue, anything above 2 health can have a huge impact on whether you can set an enemy on fire one turn then ignore them or need to stop a second attack. Also happy to hear the Gana shoutout, he's such a huge boost to momentum through setting up first turn kills, luring attacks and letting the Flame Mech block or pre-torch breaches. I think Flame Behemoths have a far easier time with 2 island victories or lower difficulties, a 2 health vek spawning on fire and targeting one of your mechs can often be completely ignored (hello Gana deployment), good as already dead. It's been a while since I played religiously, but I think vek that aren't on fire try to avoid fire tiles too, which can be pretty nice for controlling melee vek. The teleporter mech is situationally very strong, especially in the volcano, but as far as custom squads do I just like fire so much that swapping it out for the Heat Sinker's Napalm Mech is too fun, like a mini Flame Mech. With so much overkill on fire, the Flame Mech even often gets hit on fire vek and properly utilise boost. If only flame shielding still cost 1 core... Would love to use the Dispersal Mech for the design and how flashy the weapon is, but it feels far too expensive to get online, low damage cap and awkward to fully utilise without pushing Vek into buildings.

@@leophd Oh absolutely. The mention about lower health was as much to consider the flaws on unfair difficulty, against elite vek, as speak to their strengths. Just rambling on a little. Certainly wouldn't say no to making fire tick stronger, but I think some synergies like Flame Mech further improving damage to on fire targets, or other fire weapons gaining similar benefits, would be a little more satisfying and less broken for the first couple islands. Picking up the game again recently, might try some unfair runs trying to stick to their starter weapons and see how they go.

Because it was a great position, expecially with smoke, but your move is better and I should have worried more about the webs.

@@nicky2coatsI should have talked more about deployment in the pilot tier list, because that's what makes the big difference. Otherwise it's case by case and it's the focus of all my 40K run, I discuss it even more on my failed attempts. At lower difficuties or for non-perfect runs it's not as important (just start close to the Vek), but 90% of the perfect 40K encounters are decided on deployment. I always talked about that in depth, but I fully understood it only after I started using Gana with the Steel Judoka.

@@leophdThanks to your videos, I just just completed my first perfect 40k run, using Mist Eaters. Granted, I got some amazing luck, namely getting Ice Gen early on, and Gana with Conservative to boot. I still had to complete the first island on my own, though. I used Mafan with the 3, 8 skillset and put the two reactors right into "More Smoke". The breakthrough in this game is figuring out that you don't actually need to kill the Vek - you need to focus on attack cancellation, area denial, and distraction. On Unfair, killing the Vek is largely pointless because they'll just respawn right away. But if the entire map is covered in smoke and fire, they can't attack anything and you can just park the mech on the spawn point while you generate more smoke.

Grazie! The resets were meant to make the video more interesting. Instead of just talking in front of a still picture, I was using the board to show my thought process. In the end, I simply needed to practice with a very different game to get better at making videos. Maybe in a few years I'll be able to explain much better why Into the Breach is so special that I never finished another campaign of XCOM 2, my favorite game. I wanted to cover XCOM just like ItB, but I couldn't stop until I was done with the whole genre, video-wise. Though I'm always keeping an eye out for new releases because there will be an even better strategy game, sooner or later.

Fargoth is Seyda Neen and Seyda Neen is Fargoth. Joking aside, I appreciate the feedback and it's true that youtube forces us to have a catchy tile but I added in-depth analysis for a reason: it's something that touches every related concept. Of course the description says Seyda Neen analysis because that's where he lives, the people he meets during the day are the only information we have about him, I talked about who made his quest (Mark Nelson) and the lore that serves as the setting for the quest (lighthouse), plus Eldafire to put into perspective the humor of wood elves and Fargoth's house, and so on. We have so little to go on that every scrap of information matters. Initially I wanted to do a Seyda Neen deep dive in which I'd go though every single house and asset, but doubling the length for that would have been much more boring than this for absolutely no gain. Calling it Fargoth was my way to limit my scope to the more interesting parts, while allowing for the usual Elder Scrolls distraction that I tried very hard to keep short and to the point. The alternative was "a deep dive into the most interesting parts of Seyda Neen and related concepts"
