    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    found a bug? exploit? workaround.. so I declared myself Empress of the North, the Truth Heir Apparent.. after taking a Castle. now, then I picked up a quest to train some solders for one of my new villages. Total shitshow, running around killing looters trying to get these idiots to rank...

    The Magicians

    one of the interesting thing this series did was basically toss out the books entirely. its essentially a sequel to the books. s1 was the closest it ever got. sortof the same, but everyone was aged up because getting 14yr old actors was a terrible idea. Instead they got 30yr olds to play...

    Also saw a pretty funny, PSA on reddit. For anyone that wants to try Crossbows, but didn't get xbow training in character creation. There IS a way to train up xbows in game from zero, and get the 20 required to use the only one in the game. Get/train an xbow troop. Put that unit at the top...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    This is my map y1087. I spent most of the timeline, as a bandit/looter slayer. staying neutral. Khuziates started aggression early. Attacking Northern Empire, and taking Amprela early, and a bit later Myzea. Empress of southern empire took Husn Fulq early. Minor fighting over Lageta by...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    The rapid patching does show this is being treated as a soft launch. They want the immediate good word of mouth to get more sales. As opposed to a "this EA is a long term alpha beta test, where we might add some things, might add some other." Which has some good and bad with it. As a soft...

    1.0.4 https://steamcommunity.com/games/261550/announcements/detail/2078915729788707916 Smithing is super profitable, in terms of breaking down low tier tools into iron. Sickles/hammers. 40g as is... 120g in crude iron/hardwood.. and then, I think upgrading ore>crude>wraught>iron>steel etc is...

    Might be the plan atm. New workshop is a smith in Marunath. Half my army is already Forest bandits.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    yesterday was a rollercoaster for my workshops... This patch goes in, my first workshop, spikes to 4k/day for about 5 days before dropping slowly to 300/day.. I bought a second one when I logged in, in a differant city. This one starts slow and builds to about 200/day never gets over it. Then...

    This named wrong. Should be Mount&BladeII: Horselord Army size:70. 10 footman, 20 Forest bandits, 40calvary/horse archers. 75 sumpter horses, 10 mules, 20 or so odd pony/warhorse/saddle/etc.. my party is more horse then man.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    ha. yeah, my thoughts in the training area was, oh, 2h is awful. shields OP, after kicking the trainers ass. Spears aren't quite as good in game, as real life. way too easy to get in on people. NPCS you can even just run up and punch them to death in melee range. Maybe with really high...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    yeah, I wonder if they scale or get harder or something? I'm playing as a "leader", with xbow training. basically 0 melee/riding ability, and have 50/50'd the tourneyments I've done. Must be a cakewalk for someone with melee stats. Especially as you get more familiar with combat/weapons...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    nice. I thought it was really odd there was no menu icon for the Encyclopedia. you can also just right click just about anything to open it up.. and then just back out of that specific topic, to go look for whatever topic you wanted.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    hideout mechanics are kindof lame. ok, I have an army of 56 people. bandits have a hideout with 4 groups of 7. So whats the plan? run them down like dogs, via horsemen and archers? nah. we sneak in with 8 random people from the army, and attack them 8 v 28. Also, if we do manage to kill...

    Joe 100% burned down his alligator home/tv studio. He also embezzled money from drug lord for his gov campaign. Even if he was entrapped into murder for hire, which he also technically agree to.

    Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness

    well, there was the actual documentary crew as well. usually, I don't like when documentary crews spend too much time talking about themselves... but I think here it would have been a bit helpful. This doc, does not do a great job in articulating timeline. When DID the documentary crew...

    I was trying to figure out if I had a CDkey, or something for the last M&B I owned somewhere.. or if I pirated it.. or anything. did they give out M&B for free when Warband was released? never did warband, and i feel like I got M&B for free, and late to the party.

    well only one way to know. you got to try it, document it, and let us know the results.

    Star Trek: Picard

    Well Data definately removed body parts, and changed his features. and iirc Lal specifically also was allowed to design her own shell. so, S2 Robopicard can totally have his outershell replaced with a 21 yr old Jeri Ryan, as any sane person would do.

    Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness

    lol yeah. lady-"They are abusing their workers, paying them only $100/week!" "how much are you paying your workers?" lady- "pay?" Is there a name for this kind of "activist cult"?
  28. Caliane

    Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness

    A carny, A yoga cult leader, and a different kind of cult leader.. They all walk a fine line between helping the desperate, and abusing the desperate. The show is pretty pro Joe early, but it gets more into his horseshit later.

    Path of Exile

    To be clear, DD is the same. DD deals aoe flat fire spell damage. and then also, explodes the corpse for 6% of the corpses max life, that deals Secondary damage. Secondary damage will scale with aoe damage, damage, fire damage, elemental damage. but NOT spell damage. Secondary is not...

    Path of Exile

    yeah, I went the other way. Witch>templar>maruader. VD explosion does NOT scale with spell damage though, remember. General damage, elemental damage is needed to do both the death explosion, and the VD projectile.

    Path of Exile

    I just said fuck it, and put in life leech support for my VD spellslinger.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    That was some really baffling shit. wtf? If there is a single thing that TLJ did, that was most damaging.. it was that it completely shut down any possibly of a sequel/continuation. I'm probably never going to bother watching Rise of Skywalker. But, I'll also never actually blame J.J. etc...

    will probably need more. 80's was full of creature features/bigfoot. and cheap pov monster stalking shots. if you can remember the ending say it... Im pretty sure "monster escapes from a lab, and stalks kids/joggers" describes like 500 movies also, any info on the monster. hairy werewolf...

    Path of Exile

    PoB has the new gems now. should make theorycrafting archmage easier now. I think that one is actually more limited. brands, orb of storms, ball lightning.... (maybe winter orb, if you can sustain it) heavy preference for one cast, and it hitting repeatedly, esp if it can follow you...

    Path of Exile

    I think the main use of spellslinger is to cast combos. desecrate+DD/VD/cremation, etc. more direct spells, why not cast on crit, or cast on channelling? those will proc more often, and at 0 mana cost/reservation I believe. spell slinger lets you proc two unlinked spells at the same time...

    The Magicians

    yeah, the show has gone on too long for sure. The stakes are just constantly ridiculous. "lets destroy and replace the moon." lets save the Earth and Fillory from annilation for the 20th time. Timetravel 20 times a week. Character arcs like Alice and Julia.. im a goddess, im not a goddess...
