    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Sure, but Quick Ben at least has some character. I'm not saying Erikson did it anywhere near correctly, but when a character changes power levels, you can at least attribute that to organic character development. There were no Forkuul Assail characters.

    Yes, but it's rare. You're better off running some vaal sac frags and hoping you get a corrupted one you can recolor easily. Took me a half hour on SSF. @Mr Creed As far as I know, there has been no communication as to why they changed Arborix. Probably the same idiot that thought Reach of...

    Glad that they are changing cluster jewels. I was wanting to play an Ice Shot Assassin but with the nerf to Arborix and not being able to depend on cluster jewels to shore up the dex passives lack of life nodes, I was like nah. I don't think the seed change is live? Unless it's server-side...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Originally, I was like fuck the Crippled God, he got Whiskeyjack killed. By the end of the series, I was confused what I was supposed to feel. Resurrected Crippled God and Antagonist Crippled God were almost two separate characters. The Assail are just plot devices, change my mind.

    Having trouble picking a build I want to play. I wonder if herald stacking ruined me for a bit. ED/Contagion Spellslinger has great screen clearing but I feel like the damage is going to fall off eventually. I don't want to do regular ED/Contagion because I hate 1-2 combo gameplay. Also, I...

    Fair point. I was disliking that Desecrate and VD fired at the same time means no VD. Which is intuitive. Somehow Barrage or Barrage Support bypasses this?!? Even then, I wasn't liking the delay between balls spawning and stuff dying. Is there a way to fix that delay? I've seen some builds...

    Interdasting, I hadn't considered that interaction. How do you think Necro Arcanist compares to Assassin CoC? Though, don't you sacrifice damage(stuffing desecrate and VD on the same 6L) or convenience(two different brand setups)?

    Coronavirus Updates, Important Information, and Ancedotal Experience

    Random thought while discussing this over the weekend: if the flu was brand new, what would it look like? 1919 Spanish Flu? Worse? I was trying to convince my parents that the expectation should be a new seasonal disease like the flu. We still don't have a national testing strategy, I very...

    It was recently uncovered. I don't know how long the huge silver maple was covering it as we moved in 7 years ago. The wife and I have been discussing replacing it. That stamped concrete discussed a few pages back looks quite appealing from a maintenance standpoint. Either way, it's raised...

    A sealing stain might have been better. I don't really know the difference between sealing and paint. But the deck came painted, so switching didn't seem an option. Should I be considering something besides wood putty?

    Noticing some cracking in my deck. Some of these cracks are big enough that I can see the ground through them. It's probably nearing end of life being almost 40 years old. But we also cut down a tree that was shading it since the roots were getting into the leech field. Anything I can do to...

    Almost every build has mods it cannot do. The cost to reroll is so insignificant that it really shouldn't be a reason to play one build over the other. Sure, you'll brick a few super juiced maps, but that doesn't matter much either because the game shits out maps now. That said, chaos DOT...

    This seems objectively worse. Was really hoping for something for this skill, it had great potential and was almost there. The annoying part about the soon-to-be-previous-incarnation was beams killing monster that you were trying to hit to keep your buffs up. This new one seems to do nothing...

    You do give up a damage link. IIRC, the sacrifice was supposed to be balanced around VD capping out corpses consumed so it couldn't abuse Spirit Offering as well as DD. I agree, the spin into a pack and not crit for just a bit was annoying, but I imagine more gear would fix mitigate that...

    Not committed to either ascendency. I haven't reevaluated Necro since the nerf to spirit offering, which I was depending on for sustain. Maybe trickster Ed contagion soulrend spellslinger, reroll into CoC vd assassin. What didn't you like about Necro?

    The specific choices I care less about. Just that there are choices to be made. Atlas Shaping definitely killed variety, that's a valid complaint. I don't think making it so you could sustain reds with absolutely no map juice, not even an alch, was the way to solve that.
