That, my prosopagnostic friend, is a woman.

An intriguing shot of a caisson in service.

So the UI eventually bugs but I found an easy way to prevent it. If you know beforehand what spells you wanna keep, just recast imprint without switching on getting an undesired spell. I made a vid of Arkemyr losing all his spells and my bloated UI lol:

You should know that soloing encounters at low level is very hard even for the most experienced players. Only a handful of classes don't need to skip fights at the beginning, the others have to gain experience without fighting in order to become strong enough. Chanter/blood mage and paladin/blood mage are both solid, but don't expect to destroy everything from the beginning. Stats make very little difference, don't focus too much on that.

That's a rather short-sighted argument. As if every encounter would go the way one wants. Also: If I could have invisibility without any drawbacks - why not use it (I mean besides cheese aversion of course)? Then the party doesn't have "to defend him while he decimates his enemies" but can just do the same: decimate enemies.

You never know these days! Because no one is stopping them?

I just tested the premade character function (which I had no idea even allowed you to use exported chars and which does work in the ultimate) but you don't get your stolen spells with it, just a level 1 char with your char creation stats. I'll test a bit later when I'm back at my pc have to go now (unless someone beats me to it) but I think you'll only lose duration on summons.

Yeah @majestic, if I get killed by a super vampire gym god gay icon I'm going to be pissed.

I stand by what I said earlier.

Did some gardening for my Mum. Sat and took some sun. Did some shopping. Came home. Now drunk. Movie tiiiiiime.

What!? I will start Legend of Galactic Hero in a week or so. After that is Jojo. Not sure how long it will take to watch these ones since they have over a hundred episodes each. Also, I don't have as much free time now as I did when I binge watched SM.

Idk if there are npc priests with shadowing, but since you can steal departure from Arkemyr there is no real point, since it's superior anyway. (Only rogues shadowing is interesting since it doesn't break on rogue dots)

It is official you can steal crushing doom from Concelhaut himself. Another cheesy thing I found, that with Berath's challenge and brilliant departure + you can actually steal spells while invis, casting draining wall or stolen Sot does not break departure.

Shaggy is the reason for the phrase, "don't smoke what you deal in."

Love it! Someone clearly had a fun afternoon now you can walk up to Auranic "so you think you're THE Arcane Lunatic? Lady I am the Arcane SPONGE!"

++ Everything that's been said, plus if you're willing to reconsider a solo SC Bloodmage run, here's one build that worked really well for me to solo everything on PotD. Now that we've discovered that a SC BM can with a touch of cheese literally steal every Wizard/Priest/Druid spell in the game with infinite uses, this would get even more ridiculously powerful.

Ye as Kaylon said soloing isn't as much about your stats but knowing the capabilities of the classes and if necessary leveling without combat. You can level all the way to level 19 without a single fight (except the tutorial fight ofc) if you really want to. SC Blood Mage is the strongest class in the game if you are willing to abuse all cheese, for a beginner I would rather suggest to play Tactician/bloodmage or one of the combos kaylon suggested.

Maybe it's also possible to get Tempered Fury from Amra.

...At least it was a lot better than yesterday's Sailor Moon Crystal movie? Haven't watched anything more yet...will get to it. Watched S4 of Infinity Train yesterday (11 minute episodes, only 10 episodes, basically just a movie) - what a letdown. Somewhat because I just don't think the writing and tone was up to snuff compared to especially the previous two seasons (lots of really obvious writing with practically no twists), somewhat because I wholly despised the protagonists. Each season has different protagonists, and these two guys were best friends when they were younger, but fell apart as they got older because of changing interests and wanting to do different stuff with their lives (or rather one of them doing whatever they wanted, namely being a free-spirited musician, while the other guy let his parents push him into finance at university) and I...just wanted to beat both of their faces in with a rusty iron rod because of how moronic both of them were being in attempting to do everything the opposite way with constant fighting and phony-feeling reconciliation. Made it too difficult to enjoy. A very far cry from one of my very favorite antihero protagonists, the girl with the iron heart (literally - she's basically a metal golem) from the second season, that's for sure. I'm veeery sensitive to character types when it comes to protagonists...three out of four ain't too bad, I suppose.

Btw, while cheesing around with grimoire build I accidentally found out that doubleclick equipping slippers of the assassin gives you shadow form... I somehow must have either always equipped it the traditional way or never realized this before. This makes for much less hassle in having to find a barrel or enemy to kill.

At least one of the series went the distance (Clippers vs Mavs). Oddly enough, I believe every game has been won by the road team. So much for home team advantage.

I reckon a fun spell to steal would be Shadowing Beyond from a Priest of Skaen. Unlimited uses, instant cast, no recovery, no much impact of lacking Power Level either. I also tried Thrust of Tattered Veil - just because having a 100% interrupt at hand that has 0.5 casting time could be nice. With Blade Cascade it becomes an interrupting machine gun which can't miss, hehe. Too bad it's only pierce dmg. But still fun and useful.

Atleast nVidia didn't have the gall to charge 50% extra for the 2080 Super

Control is pretty fun, Launch is a bit OP hah.

That it really does, doesn't it? It's baffling. I think the two are male, and they're twins called Xenotime and Zeolite. They're in the movie, like all random bad guys, for like five minutes. They throw the daggers at Minako and trap her on the ground. From what the wiki has told me while looking up if that is in the manga like that, Minako spends some time afterwards apologizing for all the abuse she's given him. Of which there wasn't much in Crystal so far, I'm guessing that comes more from Sailor V and maybe a manga scene or two. Not sure. I wonder if he apologizes for watching her bathe. Minako is at leats 15 now, but he started out with her when she was 13, the old creep. No wonder Minako yelled at him in Sailor Moon R for looking at her change. But yes, the cats actually being transformed humans (or vice versa) has very unfortunate implications seeing how often Usagi and Minako mistreated them. Luckily that isn't canon for the 90ies anime. Otherwise the S movie wouldn't have had a special short time Luna transformation.

I just killed the Alpine Dragon, I had never killed it (until now I had never finished the game, I used to play on hard difficulty and in group, now I'm soloing on POTD with wizard). He killed me... I don't know, 8 or 10 times xD there is a problem, there are few decent fire magics to fight this dragon, however you have very strong ice magics, a bit unbalanced. I managed to petrify it a couple of times and it helped a lot to lower its life, being petrified it eats everything you put in it hehe the truth is that this dragon has been a challenge even at level 16, it's also true that as I didn't know it I didn't know how to act with it, I needed several attempts. This time I'm going to finish the game, I've played with it about 1000 hours, but I've never finished it, I like to try builds in search of maximum efficiency, it's my drug hahaha

Just a nice thought and thanks for @thelee who opened this thread as « hey guys is there any way someone can mod this out I don’t want to mess with my HUD » and 2 days later everybody is like « yay this is the new SoF but cheesier let’s go nuts! ». I feel like a plea wasn’t heard there

fox news and the far right's war on wokeness suffered a defeat, and on memorial day no less. Veteran's mic cut during speech as he speaks about Black community's role in history of Memorial Day HA! Good Fun!

He's an easy lover. He will take your heart but you won't feel it He's like no other And I'm just trying to make you see

I do plan on taking up valuable university places from our youth once I retire, whenever that will be. Like, get some old age studying done. Always thought I'd end up a scientist when I was younger. Not neuroscience, of course, but something computer science related. The realities of university life proved to be quite a spanner in the works of that idea. It's not quite Kickboxer... they're still national champions of course, and they held their own for a while during that game. It wasn't quite the traditional beatdown and the Japanese team only lost because the girls got really nervous after winning the first set (i.e. they were already good, but not experienced enough to win). But yeah, if this would have been a boy team they'd have lost 2-0 and got roflstomped so hard they'd visit the wizened old volleyball guru, who would have them carry water up and down an endless flight of stairs and drop coconuts on them from a tree. I... think I'll go watch Kickboxer now, and then Jean Claude von Johnson. They sort of did that already in one of the earliest episodes. Not carrying any water, but Hongo had them run up and down an endless flight of stairs, and when some of the girls complained, they started slapping each other. But yeah, very classic in terms of sports arcs regardless. But Attack No. 1 is over 50 years old now, and the manga it is based on is even older. How classic is that really? Not a rhetorical question, by the way, generally curious, I think Attack No. 1 was the first or at least amonst the first shojo sports mangas/animes. Just asking, you know. This is me, basically, every time I watch the show (or talk about it): Hoeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~! Well, a bit different. That would be creepy if the four of them weren't girls.

kinda an amusing german guy, but we noticed the video 'cause it showed a base defense and the second mission were a relative open map with the narrator running a trebuchet with an lrm 15 as his primary weapon system. admitted you don't get to see pilot ai not causing collateral base damage 'cause german guy kept getting lured away from the defense area. however, is a few instances where you may see ai pilots purposeful avoiding structures. HA! Good Fun!

I haven't heard of aphantasia until now and googled a bit. There are plenty of "test" pictures out there where you're supposed to close your eyes and imagine an apple or a heart or a sunrise or any such image, and rate it on a scale. I tried that, but the results weren't very promising. I don't really see images in my mind like that. Not even shapes. It's all a blank, except some mild closed eyes hallucinations that I pretty much always had, but those are blue rings on the red/blackish background of closed eyes that float around (when you close your eyes and rub them - it is really similar to that, except with no rubbing). When I focus on them the move or change shape but that's pretty much it. They're also not voluntary, or anything. They're just there. However, I'm not sure that these internet tests are all that accurate, or anything worthwhile, because I have no problems dreaming the most vivid of dreams, and I can live in my own self-created imaginary fantasy world if I want, which I still often do when trying to fall asleep (this often takes the form of self-insertion fanfiction, and it is always in third person, i.e. I am an imaginary observer of something that happens to me). But that's not entirely full of images either, it's more like an abstract concept of a scene I'm observing. Like sitting in front of a TV screen, watching something. It's not the same complete blank that I get when trying to come up with the image of an apple right now. Does that make sense? Probably not. I also can't rule out any bias, as I have said numerous times before, testing myself is... not my biggest strength, and I never thought about any of this until now that I've heard of it. So take the rambling above with a grain of salt. I once dreamt ShadySands looks like Avery Brooks and deals meth. That was before he changed his avatar to Leonard Nimoy...

I can't even get regular dreams, never mind lucid! With the one lucid dream I had, it was an utterly boring dream where absolutely nothing of note happened, but it was still amazing not just because I was awake and aware, but also just the...clarity of detail. Real life doesn't have what that dream had - everything was perfectly clear and colors and shapes popped in a way I'd never seen or experienced before. And then to be able to look down at the ground, see a rock and then tap it with my foot and really feel it, and then to kick it and have it...well, at least seem like the laws of physics were being properly applied from a decision I had consciously made, it was all so very real and vivid. Feels like such a waste to have what's probably my single lucid dream in my entire life be a dream where absolutely nothing happened, but better than never having had it at all! Could've been in a cagematch to the death with my robot dragon alien doppelganger on the Plane of Shadow...
