Never throw an unmodded dice again?

By Darkcloak, in X-Wing

How can I make it so?

Hate flubbing dice, so whats the answer? Accuracy Correctors? How about defense?

Discuss!

Use The Force...

Tie advanced with AC you can fit four in a list you get eight shots guaranteed to hit you can use focus or evade for defence, you can put a tie fighter in as a fifth ship backstabber fits in.

RAC w/ Predator + Gunner

You can always modify your dice. How nice is that?

It also does a great job of cutting down on unmodified defense dice!

I'd roll Dark Curse, just for the irony.

Punisher. Autocorrector. yep.

Also, completely fill it with munitions, just to be safe. Can't have too many munitions, right?

4 ac tie advance, wampa with targeting computer, so you can try to actually get a hit on high agility aces, or run all the advances with concussion missiles to have some range 3 hate

Or take the four TIE Advanced with accuracy correctors and cluster missiles. That's a faintly stupid amount of range 2 firepower, and since you don't have a minimum range, you can speed in close - which makes picking up the required target lock a lot easier.

Poe Dameron is very popular precisely because of his ability to modify dice. R5-P9, Autothrusters, and a talent of your choice works very well. Predator, Lone Wolf, Veteran Instincts and Adrenaline Rush all have good arguments going for them.

For one of the most crazy dice shenanigans ships I've seen - Guri, Sensor Jammer, Glitterstim, Lone Wolf, Autothrusters. Not an easy target by any means.

isn't part of the fun the unpredictability of the game? I feel that we already have too many options to modify dice... LW,predator,TLT,AC,Gunner,Emperor etc... not that I don't like those but a healthy mix is key. I think right now we have a very good balance in the game and once Wave8 with the new ordnance fix hits we might see more bombs,torpedoes and missiles on the battlefield. I personally like throwing dice :) it's exciting every time!

In true gamer forum style:

" 'tis fine OP, just L2P. "

Or bring more dice to the table. :P

THE only ship that can get re-rolls on both types of rolls is Merc faction Fett.

Within R1 of 1-2 enemies he can really shine.

Mine managed to wipe 3 full-HP Tie Advanced with targetting computers.

Solo.

On his very last HP.

After taking the "0 skill" crit up his PS8 arse...

so yeah, rolling modified dice is so much more fun, especially when you're PTL with focus+Evade and have K4 security droid for tasty re-rolls when your in-built ones are not enough.

Try him, Fett is good, not Soontir-good, but good nonetheless.

weight dice.....

Use the Schwartz.

just give up and go Deathrain (Accuracy correct, seismics, conners, munitions) and 3 Tempests (accuracy correctors)

best games of X-wing I have had, undiluted by sh*tty rng as much as possible (still green dice, but evades really help)

This is a big part of the game; removing luck (as much as possible) from the equation. This is why upgrades like PTL, Predator, Gunner, and FCS are so popular. They insure some kind of dice manipulation from round to round.

The other part of the equation, and perhaps the hardest to master, is choosing your flight patterns to insure you can manage your stress and keep placing tokens on your ships.

Sorry but should have named it random list is random!

Strangest change to ACDC I've seen. TIE's cannot SLAM regardless of putting the mod on them. Also Wampa is a bit weird in a list with no synergy to empower him. Dark Curse is much better thematically as at least he prevents enemy modification of dice. :)

The problem with dark curse is that he still hits really weak and just blind luck can kill him, wampa may die easier but with blind luck he can land a hit on sootier or corran, and with targeting computer He can cost the same and make his luck a little less blind, he really is a lot of value, and if he dies, oh well the bulk of the list is still out there

I never really understood predator. I can't see when I'd prefer to take predator over push-the-limit. With PTL, I can target lock plus do whatever action I was going to do, and target lock is better than predator.

With R2, wingman, tycho, ibtism, keylan, kyle, etc. I'm not so worried about the stress.

The ultimate dice modifier...Han Solo+Gunner.

Roll, Re-Roll. Roll again.

All of this talk of unmodified attacks. Last night my opponent rolled a natural 4 crits with his B-Wing....

Did you put his dice in salt water to make sure he hadn't weighted them?
