    Better Call Saul

    Heh, likely so - I'm such a stream of conciousness writer though.

    I realize that, thus the "I think many cameras do" comment I put in there - it's better to take a picture in standard lighting (like the dog shot) to give a real idea of the picture quality. Taking a picture with the best camera in the world in a bad situation (say a point blank picture of my...

    Better Call Saul

    As someone who's had to deal with a ton of hypochondria over my years (both personal - with the woman and possibly I [my cure was psychiatric after all - none of my head docs have said hypochondria though] - and professional with the many employees I dealt with) - one of the way's that...

    That pic of your dog looks a ton better than the Iron Maiden pic - I'm guessing the camera had a harder time with the lighting in there (I think many cameras do) - I do agree that shot is beautiful, whereas the other one was passable but nothing exceptional (if slightly poor for modern tech)...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I'm mixed on the idea - on one hand it sounds awesome to play in - but then I can't help but think of how heavy RMT nonsense would be. There's so many RMT players as-is - and that would be like Spanish fly for them. It would be amazing running a merit guild though with people that can be 100%...

    To my knowledge Sprint and Verizon even though they use the same "SIM" (I know it's not but I forget the name of it - the equivalent of SIM on ATT/TMo) process are completely incompatible - I know I looked into it for past phones before when I considered switching to VZW - unless something has...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    If you have a second PC you can do Steam remote-play legitimately from what was said during build up. But anything that truly runs two on one machine (rather than just remotely running a second machine) is risking banning from what I've seen.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Heh, my oddball friend was a DE - so no throwing boulders for him. I swear he'd make me summon him 10 stacks of throwing daggers before every raid if I was boxing my mage. Actually though, come to think of it, it wasn't Phin, it was the server before that.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    And I believe rogues can with throwing daggers in Classic as well. (For that 1 in a billion thing - I actually knew a rogue that liked to do throwing on Phin, lol)

    Yea, but doesn't it influence the size of crits too, not just the frequency? I never cared to parse that, but I know I'd heard that quoted for ranger bowing.
  13. Vaclav

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I believe technically it influences crits slightly as well - but most classes can't crit until Luclin anyhow. But yea, DEX is basically garbage tier for stat-planning. Resists, STA, STR (and >75 AGI if you're a fatty or erudite) are all a melee really should care about for a while. By the time...

    Well, he's right - when it comes to H-Dex. But that's irrelevant until Time for this server.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    I thought it was 2ppm base with 1ppm gained from max Dex? Regardless I know we're both right about it being 1ppm more with max dex, I just thought 2ppm was the base not the net.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    You do know that the "hovers" last I played referenced the benefits of HEROIC stats, right? H-Dex absolutely does increase chance to hit and damage dealt with ranged stuff - but that's just H-DEX. (And I think it's in increments of 5 or 10 that it's noticeable? something like that - never played...

    June 22: India will launch its Cartosat 2E high-resolution Earth observation satellite and a collection of smaller secondary payloads on a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-38) from the Satish Dhawan Space Center at 11:59 p.m. EDT (0359 GMT on June 23).

    75 to 255 dex from memory increases proc rate from like 2ppm to 3ppm - it's basically nothing.

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Eh, it's been a long time coming - so many quests had frankly busted XP. At least Frenzic's versions needed something that wasn't vendored - only red wine snuck through as a vendor one, and it only really worked because of how trivial it was to get the money and to->from the vendor.

    If you're doing Barb - I'd probably just head to Qeynos ASAP yard until 3, then sewers until 8 or so, then Kerra til 12-15 before making the hike to Guk. And make sure to do the stupid necklace quest first thing (Initiate of the Tribunal I think?) - that summons a pretty nice newbie melee...

    Eh, woman is into a pagan stuff - and while she's not into skyclad stuff herself - lots of her covens over the years were.... any of that sort of stuff I've seen wasn't great. Although I don't think I've seen that specific one.

    Yea, there was definitely room to complain about many of the ways they did things - but the whole thing as a total package was amazing with how the Nemesis system worked. I'm super pumped for the sequel since I presume it'll deal with a bunch of those rough edges (like the climbing mechanics)...

    Platinumed it without any oddities besides Clash in the Clouds allowing some trophies to be skipped. So I'd tend to think it's not buggy.

    LOL, no - just making a joke at all their "marriage christian camps", "orphan christian camps", Sundays off, etc stuff that they do. I went to Sunday School as a kid, and every time I go into a CFA only the management don't look plucked right out of Sunday School. (course first two girls I...

    I guess I always end up living near non-franchise ones - I've always been to one's that have been owned by "CFA Enterprises" with a manager listed for the receipts I've bothered to check. I wonder what the ratio of franchises is for CFA.

    Ah, NFC for out there - think our first NJ store was going up right as I got sick. And I think the HR person who was handling that side is probably retired by now so likely someone I don't know handling that territory. (she'd be 75-80 now)

    Varies by island. I think it's 2 hrs on the first island, 4 and 8 for most of the rest, with some weirdly long timers for some of the stuff on the second to last island? IIRC even Eye is like an 8 hr respawn but the stuff on second to last are like a full day? Plus there's some stuff like the...

    What region? Maryland/PA Wegman's I had an average hiring age of around 30-32 for front end staff.

    Yea, I agree I feel like Desert is a better polished one of the two - personally my experience with the nieces and nephews being introduced to gaming is technically all Island though - but I don't see any substantive difficulty jumps between the two logically.

    I shop too damn often - ain't got no time to see who or what is at the end of the line - quickest line wins, don't care who I'm checked out by. (Plus with Publix half the time it's a young girl with an older lady or guy helping anyhow - since they always pair cashiers with baggers whenever possible)

    Yea, fortunately I've got nieces and nephews being introduced on one side, which gave me the ammo on the 1/5 difficulty range stuff (Castle Panic is another 1/5 IMO and on his original list), since you had lots of 2/5's. Of course the other 1/5's I can think of are all competitive however (Five...
