Careful lest Volo calls you a literal Nazi. :> Since he even seems to call Mother Theresa a nazi that doesn't seem to mean much, does it? I'm sure I'm already a SJW Nazi because I think questioning taxes in general and assuming every politician to be evil is extremely silly.

Well you weren't forced to join the army. Who said it was for free? I got paid. And you could choose what you wanted to do. Plenty of options and you could apply for lots of stuff as I said. And by whose definition is it slavery. Yours? That's not really reliable source material. Because dubious reputation and so on... The PERIOD doesn't seem to work - you are still talking about it. Might as well stop shouting PERIOD. Unless it's a periodic period of course...

I have no idea about Romania's military history. I'm German and only live here temporarily because of work.

Yes. It's pretty hilarious. Used it on my Geomancer solo run some time ago. Isn't it 6 illusions and thus 6 animal companions?

Actually the people who did "forced" military service would not get send into war unless absolutely necessary (never happened so far). It was just a training and afterwards you could go straight to reserve if you wished to. You could also opt for becoming a "professional" soldier but that was totally up to you. As I said the main idea was to have a cross section of the whole society in the military and not only people who feel drawn to military service. This makes it a lot harder for the whole army to drift to the far left or far right and prevents extremism of all sorts. That sounds like a very naive statement.

You were not forced to do military service. You could do something else. Only important thing is that you spend one year working for your country or your fellow citizens. If you were sick or not fit to serve in the military you didn't have to do anything. Same if you were the third son (and the other two already served). What about community service? Being forces to work or face jail time? Slavery? What about compulsory education? We have it in Germany and many other european countries. Is that slavery? I mean you force the kids to go to school. What about being forced to pay taxes? Slavery? Or is that all already SJW Nazism?

In a new playthrough: it seems so. But that doesn't mean that it will not occur again.

@armor: if the burn AR is higher than CW's PEN you will underpenetrate with the ticks.

That's because I was testing Rekvu's Fractured Casque on a Warlock some time ago and didn't want to nuke myself with Necrotic Lances all the time.

Do you mean me? I draw them as vector graphics. You can scale them to any size without quality loss. I send them to Phenomenum as high res PNGs then since that's easier for him to work with than with vectors graphics. I don't know how Phenomenum transforms them to 42x42 pixels. I can always deliver the source SVG files if needed. I think the details of stuff like Tumbling and Dirty Fighting look ok on the screenshot by the way. Somebody gave the Dirty FIghter pants. I prefer the naked or spandex look. Not because I'm a nudist but because the cleaner lines scale better to smaller pixel sizes. Makes it more clear. EDIT: just installed he mod and generally speaking: the stuff looks great. No comparison to the bland icons that we had before. Some tweaking is needed but my first ingame impression is super positive.

Tomorrow I will be flying to Sicily with my family (Easter vacation). So you won't see new icons from me for a whole week - I promise.

I also saw the ingame preview now - and at least on the screenshot the icons look pretty awesome compared to the original stuff. I didn't think they would scale down so well.

Next iteration (now with Monk's passives at the bottom):

Exact centerinf is difficult if the picture has an even number of width and/or height (42x42). Doesn't matter too much to me if it's perfectly centered. Nobody will notice and mist icons are not symmetrical anyways.

No, that was thelee. I had problems with afflictions not getting removed by fitting inspirations. But when I start a fresh playthrough I can't reproduce it either.

Since it's very easy to give yourself injuries via console I presume something like Blessing of the Dawnstars should be equally easy to apply. You just have to find the name. You can do that with the find<whatever> commands.

If you give yourself items with the console anyway: why not use the console to reapply the resting buffs?

Maybe they are using a more recent game build. But when I do testing stuff with the console I also have troubles reproducing it. It seems you have to meet special circumstances in order for it to occur.

Just to be sure: you don't have the pet "Grog" equipped, have you? OP didn't and I assume you also don't use it, but I guess it doesn't hurt to ask...

They cannot reproduce it. At least that was the last thing I heard. Maybe it "accidentally" got fixed while doing other stuff.

They have trouble reproducing the bug on their end. But it seems they are waiting for this to get fix before releasing the patch. I see a lot of complaints about this bug. But when I asked around for savegames, screenshots, videos or other hints how to reproduce it I didn't get a lot of feedback.

I sleep like a stone once my head connects to the pillow. I will lay there like a dead man and not much does wake me up. I also fall asleep asap in plains, trains and other vehicles (if I'm not steering). I did 30-min-naps during lunch break when I was still employed (and not self-employed like nowadays). Just lay my head on the table: *snore* I drink a lot of coffee. Like... maybe more than 2 liters a day. I just love that stuff. I can drink coffee 5 min. before gong to bed - the only negative effect for my sleep is that I most likely have to get up in order to use the bathroom. Maybe that's why I seldomly sleep more than 5 hours a night. I go to bed at 1:00 am or so and will wake up at 6:30 - don't need an alarm clock. So far I'm quite healthy at an age of 42. I did lots of sports (Basketball and Volleyball mainly and also a lot of weight training) when I was younger. I completely stopped with ball sports after my last sports injury which was a severe disc prolapse in 2009. That was one year after a meniscal and cross band surgery. So I though "Screw this!". My blood values and stuff were always nice (and still are until today). Funny thing is that I feel a lot better ever since I stopped with those ball sports.

The use of the console to spawn any enemy you want will solve this problem.

We had mandatory service in Germany from end of WWII until a few years ago. Like many other countries on earth that I wouldn't call slavers. The idea (at least in Germany) was that you'll have a sound cross section of your actual society in the military (or an alternative service like fire service, Federal Agency for Technical Relief, community service - if you don't want to fire weapons and stuff). Also lifts the average IQ in the military quite a bit. I think that's a very reasonable point. I didn't go to the military but did community service in a home for wayward children (13 months). And while it was a hard time I also learned a lot. I met people I would not have met if I would have just went from school to university. My best friend did community service in a home for trisomy 21 people. At new years eve we would meet with them and celebrate - and this was honestly one of the nicest parties I ever attended. Meanwhile very decent former schoolfellows went to the military and left their footprint there. Then Germany switched to voluntary service. Guess what happened? And guess if it was a good thing for the military, the civil sector (think about hospitals, elder care...) and the society as a whole.

Yes. Same with Wiz + Druid if one casts wall of Flame and the other Wall of Thorns - or two ciphers casting a beam each or a Wall of Flame + Hand of Weal and Woe... But Combusting Wounds doesn't work with DoTs. Only with pulsing damage like Walls, Chillfogs, Beams and so on.
