    Oh, rofl, they gave winter orb half the cast time of blade vortex. This whole time I'd been dismissing it because blade vortex is a pain to stop and charge. With the nutty cast speed a dual wield trickster can get, maybe it's time I got on the worb train.

    You can assume all projectiles from Winter Orb hit the target?

    I'd rather go celibate the rest of my life than move to Massachusetts. Any job I can get is likely going to have to deal with a shitty Boston commute. Western part of the state is alright.

    I appreciate the long response, no need to apologize. She did visit a different general practitioner earlier this week. It's not a specialist, but she needed to find a new doctor anyway, her current one sucked regardless of her condition. The visit went better than I could have expected, the...

    Need some help with ironing out a few kinks with my ED/Contagion character. The character is effectively "done", I can finish my 37 challenges easily since I've gotten the actual difficult ones done already except Cortex II(fuck that). The contagion then ED playstyle is starting to hurt my...

    I have yet to find a recruiter that wasn't just a useless middleman and gatekeeper, slowing communication with potential employers, providing artificial scarcity to job listings, and driving up the cost while adding little value. Basically, they're realtors.

    Hoss is either incredibly stupid or an habitual liar. Or both. Or plays one on the internet. Or all of the above. Either way, very hard to take anything he posts seriously.

    Get involved with the finances. If you don't have a clear pictures of your budget, you can't say for certain how important that $700 really is(or isn't). It probably isn't, but you don't know. The wife and I agreed on fun money to avoid these conversations. Anything that you don't "need"...

    Someone's gotta do this shit job. As a QA manager, I'm making 100k a year in Ithaca, getting consistent 6% raise and bonus each year while working ~45/week. Maybe I lucked out, but I do a fair amount of programming each week, certainly more than our product architect does. I have had worries...

    Yeah, but 100 employees a year eight from the start seems almost reckless. It's taken almost two years to fill a QA position.

    Bestiary was an overly complicated crafting league with poorly implemented gameplay that was taken out back and replaced with its derpy brother in 3.5. If it's not part of some challenge objective, I have exactly 0 excitement for Bestiary. I would almost prefer the overly complicated system to...

    Doesn't take much time? What's your measurement of that? If I want to target rewards, I have to play the game of moving people between branches, setting up rivalries, ignoring mastermind encounter, etc. All at the great pace of once per day + 4% per map. I've targeted Cameria in Intervention...

    Synthesis: picking up rares, but somehow even gayer. Nexus is alright, memory queue is far too small and the pathing puzzle is frustrating. I spend far too long looking at the memory map instead of running memories. I'd be really annoyed if this league got the Bestiary treatment. It simply...

    Oh yeah, I've definitely explained that. Some people like being explicitly told "I love you", some people like gifts, I prefer actions. She does have issues lifting heavy objects. I think it's a little much to correlate "physically capable" to "in the mood to fuck". I can still operate at...

    I think she's a step above Alluring Abyss. The most common thing is that people say her double Flameblast is even faster.

    If I could target corruptions, map, and currency rooms, Incursion would be rewarding which might up the excitement. It still wouldn't make the mechanic itself interesting.

    Incursion was alright. I think that was my first 37 league. And it was my first league to kill Uber Elder. So I probably look at it with more favorability than it deserves. The mechanic is fairly shallow. Who goes "Ooooh, an Alva mission!"?
