My weakness in multiplayer are melee folk who rush at me. If I'm in a ranged battle with someone there's no contest, but if they rush towards me it throws me off my game. Played some FFA last night and finished 2nd about 8 games in a row, second only to a dude with a magnus club who would rush at me. I was able to kill him a few times, but mostly he was owning my ass. Once he left I racked up 10-12 first place finishes in a row

Then I played through chapter twenty-one and got docked down to 4.5 intensity after starting at 7.5. Ugh.

Use that power up that lets you fire invisible shots! They can't dodge what they don't see coming.

My laser staff has such quick shots that they are incredibly difficult to dodge, I think. I just need to work on my aim!

Just finished chapter 18. The one with the ring? Holy crap! This game!

@Guillaume

That chapter was amazing. I loved the mystery behind it and of course, it's completely different from everything you've been through up to that point. What a wonderful departure from the expected! As I was playing through that chapter my imagination was on fire.

@roykoopa64

So was mine. I thought that with Palutena reluctant on explaining the history behind Icarus that maybe all of this time, Pit WAS Icarus, though just unknowingly controlling another body. Of course that was far from the truth

Would anyone be interested in playing online tomorrow evening (Wednesday)?

I could be on around 7:30 or 8:00 PM Central Time (U.S.).

@VofEscaflowne

I wouldn't have thought of that!
04/18/12, 07:08   
I could probably be on for a few matches if it's 7:30.
04/18/12, 16:05   
Well chances are I won't be able to play tonight unless you'll be on around 9pm Central instead. If I can be on earlier, I'll let you know.
04/19/12, 00:35   
@VofEscaflowne

It's cool. Hhm, I'm not sure about 9 PM, depends on whether I do my workout early or not. I'll check back later!

@anon_mastermind

Please add me to the OP as someone interested in online play.

I can play any time!
04/19/12, 02:45   
@anon_mastermind

Awesome. How about in 30 minutes, at 7:30 pm central?

@anon_mastermind

Any preference on light vs dark or free for all? I don't really have a preference, so maybe 3 of one then 3 of the other. When we do FFA, I'll add two bots if it's just us two and leave them at default 5 difficulty. Let me know if you prefer something different!
04/19/12, 03:13   
@roykoopa64
Sounds good, you host.
04/19/12, 03:28   
These are some great games @anon_mastermind! Your laser staff is deadly. FFA is pretty exciting, I think!

Edit: I think you had to bail once I created the room to go back to playing LvD. But it was fun, we seemed to be pretty well matched against one another. I'm so dumb sometimes and keep running without paying attention to the fact that I'm about to exhaust myself, resulting in being forced to stop and catch my breath. How embarrassing!

Are you guys still playing? I could join in a few minutes.
04/19/12, 04:32   
@VofEscaflowne

Sorry, we're done for now.
04/19/12, 04:35   
Well you guys suck

Gonna start up the single player and chip away at the remaining treasure hunts then!

@roykoopa64
