    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    For the most part, they're fine. My wife is super nonconfrontational. When I was arguing(and probably will again) about the "Fuck the Patriarchy", her concern was very little about the message and mostly that her friend made it for her. That kind of apathy and nonrealization of appeasement is...

    Hmmm, I'm not as familiar with the life-based necro version of Slave Drivers. I'm playing a LL Mana Guardian currently and using the annointment on Gravepact since it's 10 points out of the way. I'm not sure how much loose currency you have. A new neck(that one really isn't doing much for you...

    I would say "I don't want to be around that stuff" if I felt that would actually happen. And by "stuff", I mean I don't want any needlepoints in my house, no bumper stickers on my car, no magnets on my fridge, no tshirts on my son, and no preferred pronouns in my conversations. I get your...

    I'm not sure what happens when you try to apply two same-level curses at the same time and you have a 1 curse limit. But as it is now, you're definitely not getting both, unless I missed somewhere where you increased your curse limit. Oh, one other thing, you're wasting much of your neck slot...

    Two curses but no curse limit? I might have missed something on your character.

    The two people I know that are playing the pronoun game, at least to the capacity I know them, have not come anywhere close to the caricature SJWs I've seen on the internet. Nevermind, just finished writing that and reminded myself that one of them is the wife to the person that made the "Fuck...

    @Soygen More like sycophants. Like, I don't truly believe they're SJWs, I don't believe my wife is, but it's popular. Under the right circumstances, I will play along too. I HAVE played along. My boss rehired an intern and put him on my team this time. Except now he's a she. Didn't look...

    Just using the ability was shit. Having to keep your mouse right next to your character to exploit the double swing was fucking stupid. They made attempts to fix the pathing but it was never that good in that respect until 3.7.

    Wife: Person A and Person A's husband will be coming over for dinner after they get out of work. The husband has chosen they/them for pronouns, so now I have to ask what "they" refers to in that sentence. I know what you're going to say, the conjugation on the verb should 95% of the time clear...

    Wait a minute...reddit did something good? Also, I agree about old cyclone being quite aidsy. I put up with it for a few builds somehow, but having a serviceable cyclone existing in D3 at the same time was especially galling. The problem I always come back to for prolif builds is sustain...

    I imagine Beacon of Ruin was nerfed because the game can no longer handle the amount of calculations involved with prolif. Speaking of performance and scapegoats...I want my fucking shatter sound back. I'm voting with my wallet, no more supporter packs until they fix this. I don't care if it...

    Yeah, that's what I expected. Just always be spinning with Cyclone 30% less movement speed. Trade one inefficiency for the other.

    How do you deal with the dead time with CWC? It doesn't sound like much, but 0.35s of nothing happening after you start channeling is pretty jarring since, as far as I know, nothing else operates this way. Every other skill or trigger is immediate activation followed by "cooldown".

    Anyone know if Greater Spell Echo from Pledge of Hands has the same tag restrictions that regular Spell Echo has? I'm guessing so, otherwise CoC PoH would have been a thing already.

    Can you still get your Elder orb that way? I usually kill Uber Elder then uncomplete my T16s. I used to uncomplete my T15s too, but I've never had to run my shaped T15 since I started doing that, just end up selling them in bulk. The changes to master missions made this even better as no more...

    Weird that Uber Elder is 1 of the 4 you didn't do. First league I've played a summoner, more enjoyable than I anticipated. My baseline for comparing builds is blood aqueducts and Slave Drivers/Zombies got 400m XP/hour there. Tied for my best with Static Strike, but that ability has some real...

    A corrupted Soul Tether with 15% all res was 4ex last league, it's known. It's ok but not as great as it sounds. The ES degen really starts to cut into your leech once you get a decent amount of ES. Playing a Cyclone Slayer last league, it was quite easy to see my leech fighting with the...

    Perhaps this build is better for a mana guardian. Looking at some of the minion-based Guardian builds, I don't understand why very few of them pick up Harmony of Purpose. Aren't Frenzy charges really powerful for minions?

    Skitterbots don't hit, so they're out. Holy Relic requires you to attack for it to cast holy nova, so they're out too. Don't need 5, so I guess I'll get a spectre. Is there a utility one beside carnage chieftans? I don't need charges as Guardians supply that already. Onslaught I get from...

    What's a good summon and forget minion? Looking for something to trigger Guardian's Radiant Crusade and Unwavering Crusade without having to reserve mana for something like Herald of Purity. Can I use spectres this way? Just want him to attack shit and never die, don't care about his dps.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    IIRC, Mr. Wizard Z. Hawk has at least one active warrant. His boss probably knows this. Or at least, hires these types of people and knows he can get away with fucking them more than usual. Legal recourse might not be an option.

    I tried out Scourge Arrow last night. It's a bleh middle ground if you really don't feel like swapping gems. It does well in tight linear maps but the spread isn't as good as Tornado Shot. The single target is really annoying, too many clicks.

    @Thregin more TS vs Barrage ruminations. IIRC my TS mechanics correctly, you have to aim your TS behind a target for it to be able to be hit by the initial volley and then the resulting secondary arrows. Both of these hits represent the spells you want to proc, so in order to keep them on...

    Tempered Mind almost always goes in witch gem slot. The pathing is specific though, you basically can't path through the middle of the witch area. Helps to pick up some of the other stuff along the way, like power charge half wheel and an extra curse. See the PoB I posted for reference. With...

    Tempered Mind is great for accuracy, just gotta change your pathing a bit. Crit chance against shocked enemies is not a bad idea, I'll look into that. So much of Incursion gear was forgettable. What do you think is holding this build back for bossing? It certainly has the dps. The defenses...

    Blight seems like a step down in terms of loot however. Maybe that's good in terms of overall economy, the game feels a bit too easy in terms of progression. But you should want to do the league mechanic as opposed to just more maps.
