    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Rake was 7th of the Seguleh. Could have gone further, perhaps, but left because he didn't understand why they kept trying to fight him. Draconus was Consort to Mother Dark, Anomander was First Son (a title, not actually her son). His power did not come from Dragnipur. Instead, his ability to...

    Is spear not useful for melee? I've been giving it to dragoons and ninjas when I can.

    People that have never worked in a restaurant really get my jimmies rustled.

    Spencer and Dan talking at the game hit me right in the feels. Really enjoyed this episode.

    Couldn't agree with you more about the primals. I really like the music on Ramuh, but that was not my favorite fight.

    Dear popsicledeath: I hate what you've done to this thread. Learn to use commas. Think of commas as an opportunity to take a breath and consider the bullshit you're about to spew forth. Intelligent posters understand the necessity of being clear and concise. I've enjoyed season two of True...

    I finally got around to clearing BisEx today. Only tried it twice before, and both groups failed on the snakes. Today was a different story, though. Now it's time for some Ravana farm for some weapons!

    Oh snap, shows you what I know. I didn't realize there was player housing other than the lavender beds.

    Did they give any indication of how long servers will be down? I'm at work, left my roulettes for when I get home, guess I'm going to miss my law today.

    I got lucky, got a drop from each of the first three on my first clear (2 boots, 1 gloves). Haven't gone into Burden of the Father yet.

    At least you guys are getting exp for doing the quests. Yes, I am sure it feels like you're stuck. But you'll have more exp going into the expansion and won't have to dungeon- or quest-grind to the next level as early as the rest of us had to.

    This. Also if you watch closely it looks like something hits him and falls to the ground; bean-bag shot?

    I wouldn't skip the cutscenes in the 2.5 and 3.0 quests. They're pretty good. The story in Heavensward has been bad ass.

    Having all the ponies makes Mount Roulette really fun when running from place to place. Not quite 56 yet, but did finish the 55 MSQ. Having a blast in this expansion. Can't wait to try out other jobs, but MSQ comes first. Edit: Hate maintenance, but at least they're good about up- and...

    Nah MSQ sends you to Thound Maws or Sunken Temple at level 50. Think it's ST.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    My jimmies are rustled. Don't think I've ever posted in this thread, but I've enjoyed reading it, Friend who is around book five or six of The Malazan Book of the Fallen challenges me about a minute detail in The Gardens of the Moon. I've read all the books numerous times. Unfortunately I...

    What are the chances servers are up ahead of schedule? Haven't tried to log in right at scheduled maintenance up time in this game before.

    I farmed my ponies in the middle of the night, for the most part. Did PF when I could, but as you said, dps spots fill as soon as there's more than 1 tank or healer in the party. The time of night if there wasn't a PF (usually not, and if there was a lot of times it was for a pony I already...

    Ponies: Getting the three on the left side and the three on the right side unlocks a quest to get the one in the middle. I got the purple one in bottom right and the middle one today. Took a long time, as my only job is BLM and I got 4/6 in DF. Edit: Didn't explain fully. The mounts...

    Well, I just got the Ramuh pony. Last one I needed for Kirin. So Glad I got that done before expansion hits! Edit: 1 job level 50, but by God I can sure spend countless hours farming ponies.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Before Jon rushes into the fight, he's yelling at the Wildlings to get in line. One of the Night's Watch yells from a boat, "Lord Commander!" Jon shouts back, "Get them to the boats and come back for me."

    The reward from hunts got reduced drastically when they released Poetics, I believe. The Shiva patch. Edit: I caught the gravy train, my brother and roommate did not.

    So my Leviathan pony is playing Titan music. Edit: Can't test out the other ponies, Enbarr is the only one I've got. Just cleared Shiva ex for the first time this afternoon; probably gonna start farming the primals for the mounts and glamour weapons.

    What classes from all other MMOs would you bring back into a new Game?

    Oh man. I still remember when I pulled the frenzied ghoul that had my FBSS on it. Knew it as soon as I got him back to the group.

    I think it's pretty clear from the way the votes fell that Mike knew the idol was fake. He's got one himself, so he knows what they look like this season. He was just thumbing his nose at Joe.

    So I've been removed from XIV for a couple of months. Played last right after Snowcloak and Shiva came out. After I did Snowcloak and a couple HM dungeons, high-level roulette was unlocked. Now that I am back, I can't do the high-level roulette anymore, and can't find any info on which dungeons...

    Heroes of the Storm

    Alright, took the advice and have been playing Valla. She seems pretty strong, almost level 7 on her. Looking at a tank or a support next, have been eye-balling Tassador. Partly because he's only 7000. But I always played Toss back in the day. Any suggestions for tank/support? Also thought...

    I've been playing League since 2010 or so. Friend of mine wants me to give this game a whirl, and as it turns out I've got beta access. So, I'm downloading the game now and plan on checking it out this evening. Any useful tips or advice before I dive in? I hope to pick up on game quickly, since...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    I've always liked Tehol/Bugg, Kruppe, and Iskarial Pust. I kinda group them all together when it comes to Malazan comic relief. That's not all they're about, because they are main characters, but I always have fun reading their chapters. Edit: Rereads: they're better. Certain PoVs early...

    I thought the Pack had a pretty good defense in 2010, when they won the Super Bowl. They lost Cullen Jenkins after that season, and the defense hasn't looked the same since.

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    It's been pretty entertaining so far. I'm only 1/3 or so into it, but the entire thing has been from Captain Hadrian Sawback's point-of-view, so there's something I wasn't expecting with an Erikson book. I've laughed out lout a number of times. It's pretty easy reading, but enjoyable. I've stuck...
