I've been playing pretty casually, just poking around and enjoying the graphics etc etc. Level 52 now. Aside from doing the 3/3 daily and whatever world bosses I feel like making it to, are there other things I could add to my "daily routine" that would aid me when 80? PVE-only at the moment.

Yea, I map primarily solo and 76 and above was not profitable any longer. I was alc/chiseling everything on my way up and having a good ol time, but I'm not sure if 76+ is even intended to be profitable... or if the design intent is "group or bleed currency".

Just look towards the multi-billion dollar industry that weight loss has become. A country full of drug addicts looking for a way to keep getting high without dying young. My uncle (40+BMI) is a brilliant software engineer. Makes crazy bucks as a consultant. Super smart man. He made a...

Yup. You can't sell a new book titled "eat less move more." Ossoi won't buy that shit. Unless it comes with coconut oil.

I think breakfast was an important part of my day when I was active duty USMC -- but I suspect that's true for anyone with a higher caloric requirement. As a sedentary (while not at the gym) civilian, breakfast is wholly unnecessary even when I want to gain weight. I think the "most...

I like IF too for when I want to combine binge eating with calorie restriction -- but honestly, many variants of IF I've seen can be summed up by "skip breakfast".

Didn't read any of the linked studies, but this field of research is so convoluted: anyone can make studies show all sorts of positive effects by stating that the standard american diet is the baseline and testing something other than that.

^ what he said.

Feel free to add me, IGN: dridalon. Got 4 stash tabs of uniques just taking up space along with tons of other crap.

If anyone wants to pay USD for exalts on Warband, shoot me a PM. The website rates are highway robbery.

Yea I saw those options -- but if she ended up liking it she'll still have to pay the $50 for HoT. A trial key is the best option if any of those still exist.

Longshot, but does anyone have a trial key? I heard those used to go out in emails. My wife wants to try the game but she's reluctant to drop $50 on an MMO since they usually don't keep her interest that long.

For Warbands, really digging my crit physical Split Arrow/Puncture ranger. Starts off a little slow compared to how it'll feel later on; once you get a solid bow clear speed starts to go through the roof.

Surprised Blizzard hasn't implemented some sort of AA yet.

Would love one as well if you have another.

EDIT: opiate, that's shin splints. Go to a running shoe store and have them watch you walk/run, they'll tell you if you're over/under pronating and help you pick out a shoe. I used to struggle with shin splints but after getting good shoes and just getting the mileage in, it stopped being an...

Variise is silly if he thinks skill points is a real hurdle holding back badass Eve players from competing "with the big dogs." On Star Citizen, I can't fault him for hoping: that's what most of us here do. But keep in mind that he's in to the tune of $7k+ on this game, to say that he may be...

Variise's comment regarding Eve also made me think he has no actual experience with that game. His viewpoint is shared by many others, though.

Playing Warbands, been running 73-75 maps. Got about 10 exalt. Should I buy a lightning coil and work on 6linking it, or should I look to a more conventional chest piece? Hearing that phys damage in the high maps is awful.

It isn't the complexity of tanking mechanics that keep people away; it's the expectation, shared by the playerbase, that the tank is the leader and responsible for the success of the group. Most people are not interested in leading. Mechanical ineptitude certainly doesn't have people shying...

You're likely substantially more muscled in the lower body. Cad skips leg day =P

Could someone help with an appraisal on this for Warbands? Hard to find anything like it on poe trade but I'm not familiar with builds enough to know if some build would pay a lot for it. Can craft life onto it, etc etc...

Haven't done A4C/A4M yet so I'll reserve judgement. My tentative opinion is A4N is likely too hard; Normal ought to be relatively easy and pleasurable even for people objectively bad at the game. I don't think a new (or bad) player is going to have a good time in A4N. Which substantially...

So much salt on reddit right now about A4 difficulty.

Well, yea, obviously I don't give a shit about standard. I understand those that choose to play SC instead of HC, I don't understand why anyone would play Standard over the challenge league. To each their own, though. But acting like removing eternals is going to have a noticeable...

Rolled a thief up the other day, just hit level 30. Is there anything I ought to be doing on my path to 80 other than hearts in assorted zones? It seems like I wasn't getting enough exp following a "proper" progression, I've had to detour off to other zones. Been doing my story quest.

Yep. 2.0 is awesome. No more desync and Act IV is solid.

As I said, the article seemed sensible. I think the greatest cause for concern here is the point he made: their income from the ships they're selling actively discourage them from being open with the community. Over the next year, when more and more crap has to get cut from this bloated piece...

Tons of random QQing about how getting good gear will be impossible, etc etc. Some players are delusional... my lord -- if this guy seriously thought that "casual" and "average" players were doing anything whatsoever with mirror quality gear. The sadistic part of me wants standard wiped just...

It was a well-written article and the points he made are legit. You don't think this game, from inception to funding to where we are now is surreal? What do you disagree with?

Natural selection?

Lol; neckbeards and bluehairs deserve each other. Both genders look terrible as you track downward on whatever bell curve you want to use.

No. Aside from the broad theme of kill many monsters + get loot with isometric view. D3 is what I'd play with my wife; she is a casual through-and-through and the green arrows on the gear help her a ton figuring out what to equip. She'd never play PoE. No. Closest would be $ used to...

Rofl yup.

Yes. I think its racking within your bracket but I'm not sure.

Been playing on the US West with a few RL friends -- just casual stuff. We're all going to jump ship for the Path of Exile 2.0 launch next week; just using PS2 for some casual laughs.

Get a grip, man. This community has been %90+ fathers with life outside their games for the last decade. Most left the nolife days far in the past.

Anyone got a link to this?

I'm 30, also raised by a single mother. I never, once, at all thought "good guys win in the end." All you, me, or any other man ever had to do was look at the men in the media that woman were fawning over and aspire to those characteristics. Handsome, charismatic, leader, patient, fair...

There just isn't any demand. Even the huge fans of cutthroat get burnt out in a day or two. A permanent cutthroat league would be a ghost town.
