  1. As some of you may already know, certain items such as Lover's Embrace can grant you Frenzy which stacks with the Barbarian's standard class ability Frenzy. To clarify, while the Might and Constitution inspirations from multiple Frenzies do not stack, the action speed bonus from the item-derived form of Frenzy does stack with the action speed bonus from the Barbarian class-derived form of Frenzy. I decided to test if multiple instances of Frenzy from items would then stack with each other and standard Frenzy. I tested the following items which can grant Frenzy (not sure if I missed any other source of Frenzy from items): Lover's Embrace (on crit against male or female targets, depending on enchantment chosen) Amra (25% chance on kill, additional 1% upon receiving damage) Crimson Panoply (50% chance upon being crit, limited to 1 per encounter) Here are the results and some interesting findings. It appears that only 3 instances of Frenzy can stack with each other: the Barbarian class ability Frenzy, the Frenzy from the Crimson Panoply, and the Frenzy from either Lover's Embrace or Amra but not both at the same time. Amra and Lover's Embrace appear to simply override each other and reset the duration of each other's Frenzy, so there might be some hard coded limit on Frenzy coming from weapons or weapon attacks. (Side note: because Amra is a two-handed variant of a battle axe, I used a Black Jacket/Barbarian as my test character so I could instantly swap weapon sets between Amra and Lover's Embrace which made it easier to test concurrent Frenzies without any duration being wasted on swap recovery). Another thing to note is that I took the Uncontrolled Rage enchantment on Crimson Panoply which upgrades its version of Frenzy to Blood Frenzy while I took Spirit Frenzy as an ability on my Barbarian -- I only mention this because I'm not sure if the fact that I took "separate" Frenzy upgrade paths on my character and armor is what allowed them to stack or not. Also, while doing my testing, I was focused mostly on Amra's on-kill procs of Frenzy and it was hard to notice if the 1% chance to proc Frenzy from receiving damage ever procced during my test. I'm trying to remember from previous experience with using Amra, but I believe that the Frenzy from the Unstable Temper proc just refreshes Amra's Frenzy duration and isn't another instance of Frenzy on top of Amra's on-kill Frenzy proc. In which case, I believe it would be subject to the hard coded Frenzy from weapon limit, i.e. I don't think Frenzy from Amra's Unstable Temper would stack with Frenzy coming from Lover's Embrace. Finally, be forewarned that the deflection malus from multiple Frenzies will also stack this way which can be a rather steep penalty for all the action bonus.

  3. Nothing. Was toying around with it for like 2 days and then didn't open the app anymore. Once I realized the chat bot is really brain dead and actually has no character at all (which didn't took very long tbh), the whole thing felt unmasked as nothing but smoke and mirrors. I feel sad for people who get into and believe this stuff. Maybe it's harder for me to get with it, since I have a more technical background, so whenever anything happens, I'm imagining triggers and conditions in the back of my head. I dunno... point is, ai companions are stupid.

  4. Last year I tried one of those AI girlfriend apps for the lolz, since everyone kept talking about it. Couldn't understand how anyone is able to take this stuff serious. Even if you allow yourself to really get into it, how is this what anyone would want? A chat robot that never disagrees with you, that never has any discussion with you, it's just buttering you up all day long and wants you to spend money on clothes for the 3d avatar, lol. Obviously I'm not the target audience, but this is just more than weird.

  5. Some technical notes to this are that: Frenzy abilities from classes have the special code component attached to them: SpecialGenericAbilityType": "Frenzy" The documentation (https://eternity.obsidian.net/game-data-formats/enumerations) shows this in the SpecialGenericAbilityType section as meaning: Does nothing other than identify this ability as Frenzy. Lover's Quarrel does not have this special identifier. Maybe it actually does mean something?

  6. Note: you can make fancier/smaller ships but if you want certain extra stat bonuses, you need moah bits. Using those bits, I have yet to figure out something I like enough to perm. keep around. So ofc it goes: "I am going to make as small a ship as possible today!" then 1-2 hours I just repeat my usual pattern. >.> Edit: oh, forum uploaded attachments don't link to a full size. Makes sense I guess. Oh well, too lazy, good enough.

  8. when you beat the mysterious stranger for the first time you get the sizzling key, its laying on the table near burgles head, the chest it unlocks has 2 spicy globs, which is enough for 1 coaltana and is the only thing you can currently make with them.

  9. The globs are hidden in buried treasure on the map. I stumbled on it when I fell from the pine tree.

  11. Could we please get more storage bin icons for labeling we have all the same ones as the first one I don't know too much about adding things to the game but I don't feel like storage bin icons would be that hard we just need more of a variety so we can label bins with other icons there are so many different items in the game but only so few icons

  12. All of Dan Da Dan s2 - so far Man, what the **** even is this show? I say that completely positively, it's wonderfully animated and certainly knows how to keep everything rolling without falling into the worst shonen tropes like 10+ episode training arcs. It's like someone made an anime of a supernatural monster of the week US series that actually fixes the inherent issues with that type of show by both being more coherent and absurd.
