Wish there was some type of filter in PVE matchmaking for skill level. Went into a Night Fox and the guys with me burned all the revives in the first few minutes. And then all died. So I figured I'd try to solo it. Eventually gave up and it still had 20% hp. So not only did they all die, they...

I'm still enjoying it. I will say I started thinking about the relic gear and wondering what it gives you. I'm at 3/3/3/3 and the recommended stats (1350 swiftness, 450 specialization). What would new accessories get me? Is it trying to get a 4th maxed engraving?

CAGR of the S&P 500 with inflation is 7.14%. That includes the Great Depression, 70's stagflation, and 1999-2009 shit show. That's why I say don't bet against the US economy. And even with the current weird crap going on, most of the big boys in the global economy are based on the US exchanges...

They could also get rid of anti-cheat because it makes the game run like ass sometimes (looking at you, loading the game initially!). And it's obviously doing fuckall.

The only plus side of it was that it was braindead easy and not a slog. But it's also super boring, whereas at least Naruni was different. I didn't run Naruni after about halfway through the 2nd week of it though as I had so many tokens.

Looks like they're extending the guardian event, and targeting the next update for 3rd week of May. Assuming the next one is for sure Valtan? Or is there some other possibility? https://forums.playlostark.com/t/lost-ark-weekly-update-428-12-am-pt-7-am-utc-9-am-cest/351443/5

Yoho's stupid tail swipe is why I hated it on blade. It's almost unavoidable. So I ate a ton of damage and would burn through potions. On bard though it's not a thing, so that's nice.

I wonder if we get a new event tomorrow. Based on the expiration of the books, I'm assuming the guardian one ends tomorrow. And the race one ended last week. Was nice having them both, but if we don't get a replacement it's going to feel so dead. That's probably just being spoiled though. I'm...

Oh, another thing that's kind of a minor annoyance with their design (not sure if *actually* matters in any way), but if you change your main like I'm doing, there's no good way to change which character is in the "main" guild versus "alt" guild. Since there's such a long lockout, I'd be giving...

2020 and 2021 were pretty wild because we'd have single days where our accounts would swing by an entire year of expenses. But that was kind of the clue that we were about to the point where we could retire. 2022 has made that a bit hard to look at the markets, but a single year shouldn't...

Got my bard to 1385 today, so now caught up with my blade who becomes my alt. Unfortunately I've had a hell of a time with p2 Argos. Pugs just aren't good, and as a bard it's super frustrating because every time they die I feel like it's my fault, but the reality is they're just eating tons of...

That's a good point. I mentioned in game yesterday how it felt bad that there were glavier's already at my ilvl. Maybe they saved a shit ton of mats, but either way, the class released 4 days prior. That's kind of shit.

Is it possible that with the delay on it being so long, that people way overshoot the ilvl for legion raids (at least the first ones we get) and trivialize it a bit? We already have a lot of people over 1400, and I imagine people may start pushing 1450 if it takes 2 months.

I don't understand why you're playing then? Or rather, who you're playing for. Is it just to "win" the race against other players to a meaningless high ilvl?

I should be back on Saturday. I'm guessing I'll just pug Argos though since you've already done it. From what I've read, I should be able to do p2 even at 1370 as a support (I do have heavy armor 3 which should help survivability). Not sure what kind of free mats we've got going on, but maybe I...

Our 62% labor participation rate is "too hot?"

Guess this is why they didn't want to release a roadmap.

Seems to me like a business model that wasn't sustainable due to first mover advantage in an industry where everyone else owned all the IP. And worse is that they decided this was the time to start jacking up prices and going after users sharing account information, to try to recapture revenue...

It's also completely disingenuous to say "they've done this before many times" when it's never even been remotely at this scale before.

Have they ever mentioned what "special factors" they think are causing inflation? If so, it's all empty rhetoric. They likely won't ever admit that the money injections are the real problem.

And sadly they're starting to combine and we'll end up with cable packages again.

Not that Cocktail was ever heralded as a good movie, but I rewatched it a month or two ago and it's really not particularly entertaining. I remember liking it a lot when I was younger though.

I feel like I must be a retard because I was running RE blade this entire time. It's because I was following all the guides, again, based on KR. Everything about the KR test changes say surge was vastly superior for our version. I'm getting tired of how shit the information is for us on our...

Huff was a great show. It's been a long time since I watched, but I don't even remember Brewster being bad in it. She certainly wasn't an Abby from Ray Donovan or Skylar on Breaking Bad. Both of those characters were actively awful and seemed like their only purpose was to ruin the rest of the show.

We're on the road for a week or so, but I was able to hit 1370 on my bard (to be main eventually) and hit up Argos p1. I wasn't able to get any abyss done though which kind of sucks. Missing out on a week of pretty much everything blows, but I was at least able to buy out all the event vendors...

I'm not sure that equities are going to return 10% this year. Kind of a gamble either way, which is why I just stick to equities.

I recommend knocking out Argon as soon as you can. Once people realize how shit that one is, it's going to get so much worse. There's only like a dozen or so statues to even try for an entire server. I mentioned it in chat when I got it because none of the guides cover the first part, but I did...

Had a coworker who lived in Wyoming and hated it. The wind is apparently brutal there, but one of the seasons is "mud season." Otherwise it's got decent outdoor stuff, but the weather just blows ass for a lot of the year.

I was confused because it lists it as 1340, so I figured it was doing something weird. I still don't understand why that's the case.

Holy shit, please tell me I'm doing this wrong. This is what I get to go from 1385 to 1400.

Is there an estimate on average number of greater leapstones to get to each milestone (1385, 1400, 1415)? Just curious as I plan out how much I'll need for the future. If I ended up with 500 bound ones on a character but the average is 300, well, I guess they'd be useful later, but still my...

Somehow missed that part about the shop boxes. I kind of missed that boat by not making a shit ton of gold and BC in the first couple weeks. I think I'm at under 3k BC without any future months of aura purchased (one month remaining), and about 55k gold. Oh well, I'll get there eventually. If...

Gotta say, I'm super impressed by this as I've started to grind out 100%'s. I've got the first 3 done and Tortoyk, Anikka and Shushire seem like decently easy ones. Arthetine looks a bit tougher. And the 8th I'm just going to hate. Either way though, you must've been farming legendary rapport...

I've mentioned it maybe half a dozen times in the Top Gun 2 thread and this one time outside it. Stay mad, dog fucker.

Wouldn't a sub 3% unemployment rate be historic? Like, getting below 4% means we're all full employment essentially? Or have they fiddled with how it's calculated so much that we'll start seeing negative unemployment rates?

I have a ton of respect for him after I saw him hanging out of the side of a helicopter behind our building for Top Gun a few years ago. He's the same age as my mom for fucks sake.

It does. Mine I made on day one but never logged into until like 3 weeks in had full rested.

I can't decide if I want to make a "glavier." I seem to remember seeing something that said they were ass at PVE. Not sure if it actually matters though. I also feel like they might be too similar to deathblade.
