    If you set the raw meat dumpling in your tool belt and summon the mimic tear, the mimic tear will eat it to heal 3 times per summon. The twist is that the mimic tear summon can’t get poisoned so it only heals itself without any negative status effect. He will live much longer. 👍🏻

    Music aside,
    The mimic tear does help a lot. If you max it out, it’s awesome and won’t die in 2 hits.
    Now, it won’t do everything for but it can create some openings. Which can be clutch especially if your build is brutal.
    Just my little two sense that are based on my experience.

    I would love to see you tutorial your thought process behind dialing in a genrespecific tone but with only the genres YOU usually do. I have a weird habit of quadtracking with really dry-ish marshall/80's tone. Playing death/metal/core, I like it, but the band doesn't, and I totally get why. It's just, it makes me work a bit harder with the guitar, more gain feels like I'm cheating.

    hey so, I'm really interested in the Metric Modulation you did. Can you explain what that is and how it's different from half time? Is that literally just half timing the cymbals in a set tempo for just a few bars or are you throwing them off half time at the 1 and 3 as opposed to the 2 and 4 beats?
