This Wasn't Supposed To Be This GOOD! - Dark Star Build - Nova Drift

[@jimschuler8830]

Some science: dry rubs are better on a barbeque because low and slow doesn't turn the rub to charcoal and the rendering fat washes off any sauce you put on. Sauce is better on a grill because the high heat caramelizes the sugars. The correct answer with ribs is "both," because you start barbequing with a rub for a couple hours to develop the bark and get that smoky flavor, switch to a braise by wrapping in foil with your liquid of choice, then you finish on a grill with a sauce which now protects the rub while being caramelized. Stop half-assing your ribs, Texas.

[@Malroth00Returns]

I'm on the braise then bark camp and will fight for it

40:25 your shield had already been recharging whenever you took damage since you first took shielded constructs. 15:40 is the first time it happened.

[@nathannash7136]

I think Chimeric realized when he made the change to Antimatter Rounds that if he let the beam destroy bullets, you'd be able to keep the screen clear indefinitely. He does follow your channel, after all.

another point for milk being a broth, is that it is an animal product that has been processed with heat and pressure, but not boiled, to get it to the way it is. Whereas a sauce is something this is boiled down or reduced in the process of cooking and thickeners are added.

Um Jammer Lammy was amazing, and unlocking Parappa to play through it all in Parappa mode was an amazing reward for doing well.

I think the fact that the dark matter lance mines are more transparent and don't cover up as much of your screen might constitute a decent gameplay advantage over the same build without dark matter.

As per its name, a cereal would most likely be defined as a cold grain soup. However, I personally don't put all that much milk on my cereal, to the point where there is likely more cereal than milk in the bowl - mainly because I have dairy allergies and the hemp milk I drink instead is somewhat expensive. (So I make sure to have a full serving of it for the calcium, but that's it.)

[@xenohans9364]

In the dub line of Vegeta: "What is this? A bargain sale on Seraph?"

[@Zorgdub]

21:49 "My mine limit is two, so it'll be 4%." Actually since it only counts Standard and Advanced constructs,that would be a total of +0% construct assembly speed. It's weird to hear Lee be confused about that since he corrected me on that issue in the comments a few months ago.

[@UltraC]

You've watched enough of my videos to know that I forget things constantly, so it really shouldn't be weird at this point.

[@WhiteW01f]

Gemini Protocol is effectively gas lighting your shield lol

I wonder why James has this weird habit of calling bosses by made up name. Like calling the Ultra Creature the Dreadnought. It's a lot like how Lee thinks Boop Noodle can be fought on wave 100.

The shield was randomly going on cooldown well before you got Gemini protocol.

I think that was 7 Seraphs. A bit excessive.

"Wasn't even backup, it was frontcup... uh, that doesn't sound right." Immediately dies. _Pretty_ sure Jimmy killed Lee with a slip of the forked tongue, there!

[@rakdosrok5816]

The antimatter rounds on the loaded mines is arguably better, purely due to the fact of greater visibility on the field. You can see better with it rather than with out it. I would know as I just died due to an enemy hiding behind the blindingly bright pin wheel.

[@WhiteW01f]

I'm with Lee, I'm also a no milk with my cereal kind of person. Makes the cereal get too soggy and then it's just not pleasant to eat.

Eeey, antimatter rounds does increase base damage, it DOES something, mainly to sparks

[@TrevorD19]

You need to do Antimatter barrage railgun with hypermetabolism. Your other run fails to compare to this. You should be able to get 4m easy. Use Barrage, Railgun, Antimatter, Cleveland, Siege Weaponry, Saturation Fire, Warp Strike, Drones with Arc Barrier, you will die if you get hit so take masochisms instead of defiance, hypermetabolisms for health. Do not lose your shield. The goal is to eventually get burnout reactors and have your drones live it.

[@firedirewolf]

a thought came to mind, while you probably want fire rate for beam size, you might have gone with singular strike and slowing down your shots if you wanted to try this again later. Not sure why you'd want to reduce the beam size by slowing down your fire rate to reduce the damage for extra hits, but it is an idea of what you might do.

[@firedirewolf]

did you just quote Zeebashew's "heat metal" video with "cook and book"? lol

[@dragon5ire]

I just started watching this and lee I have to say I basically just did a dark matter lance build and I used the no shield tactic so I can use the lance without needing too stop for regeneration(I didn't have hypermetabolism)I also had rancor I could also use berstfire and be fine so don't say using dark matter lance without loded mines is bad. Edit:I also had deflagration and last stand

[@UltraC]

Using dark matter lance without loaded mines is bad. See? I can say it just fine! Being able to survive it and it being good are two different things. :D

"The number of weapon instances produced by Loaded Mines is determined by your fire rate and projectile count." Why didn't you take Volley, then maybe Firing Array and then Fusillade? Technically, Thermal Lance is affected by Projectile Count, though it's only the sparks. Wouldn't taking those double your projectile count, possibly giving you another arm or two?

[@CobaltSpace]

See RealCivilEngineer

[@michaelsorensen7567]

RealCivilEngineer has a long running beef with architects because they just make things pretty without caring if they, y'know, actually WORK or anything. So it became a channel gag, and for example if he's playing Timberborn and one of the beavers (named after his Patreon supporters) has ,"architect" in the name, he sends that beaver to a "shaming wheel". He also blames anything that doesn't make sense or is frustrating about how something in game works on architects. All in jest, all in good fun. And, since some of the audience overlaps, you get fans mentioning it in the comments sections, and it spreads. Especially when the body fit this build was "Architect" lol

[@tiny_eng]

@@michaelsorensen7567 It was also something between the civil engs and architects at my university. I never really asked about it then though. I can understand the "pretty" vs. "work" beef though.

I know it works differently with shielded constructs, and even say so at some point in the video. The question here was if anything happened, since mines can't have shields, therefor the shield doesn't exist.
