    I only played on Phinny for a little bit at the start to score some early Krono, I haven't been back since the opening week and don't really have any plans to.

    They were (are) active on Ragefire/Lockjaw and were active on Sleeper/Combine. I didn't play on Fippy/Vulak. Right now the batch of them isn't great. Hotzone Warsiliks Woods is crappy and Burning Woods dries up in the mid to upper mid 50s. Sleeper had I think hotzone Overthere, Dreadlands...

    I buy and sell crap professionally (not MtG cards, thank god) and if I could I'd sell every single thing I own in this world right now this second for 80% of full retail price. Box it up, truck it out. There's nothing offensive about that Goyf offer at all.

    I was not. There's just something about the Freeport fire beetle eye quest that is different than the Grobb one. For some reason it just holds value level after level after level, like it's awarding you a percent instead of a flat amount.

    If his story is true than I stand by what I said. If it was just bullshit to get that old racist to point a gun at him than no.

    Interstellar (2014)

    Up until the introduction of Matt Damon's character I felt like Interstellar was a smart reconstruction of many other Sci-Fi themes and tropes but he's just such a stock antagonist/monkey wrench character that it drags down the rest of the film. "Hey man, your robot seems broken. Want me to...

    I remember watching that one as a kid and boy was I not really ready for how fucking crazy it got. Fucking exo-suit zombie getting his limbs blown apart while some tiny semblance of who he was remains. You could incorporate many of that film's themes in a modern horror flick and give your...

    Well, either I screwed up my initial test or there's another part of the quest exp calculation because 59 stacks of eyes was 100% of level 23 and 70% of level 24. I may have had an excellent way to farm cash at the very start of a server but this exp is indeed pretty crazy given how little labor...

    I tested four eyes in Grobb and four eyes in FP before I got going and at level one Grobb was 34% and FP was 31%. I don't think that there's any way for the exp to be different (and much, much better) with the one versus the other later on. I guess I'll go check it out?

    The Hateful Eight

    Thought the first two hours were great, didn't really like the last act starting with Chapter 4 - Domergrue's Secret. Upon further review Samuel L Jackon's character may be the most evil character I've seen in a film since Anton Chigur. Still very, very good even if I disliked where it went...

    If they've got a big sale price than farming them makes sense. I didn't do the farming on Phinny so I don't have access to that market to unload them if I wanted to. Ragefire and Lockjaw have the exact same quest exp as Phinny does.

    Alright, so I went ahead and farmed up 70 stacks of fire beetle eyes and then turned them in on my level 22 high elf wizard using a DE mark and then Origined to Felwithe to turn in the earrings. At level 22 the 70 stacks were 58% experience, the 24 earrings I got were another 19%, and the total...

    Fire Beetle Eyes? Let me tell you all about them. There are two quests that people are doing that use them. For the first one you turn in eyes to Xelha Nevagon in East Freeport. She's a Necromancer guild leader in the evil part of town. The rewards are exp and a little bit of cash and a level...

    Right now Necros in Kunark are pretty great but if you're the kind of guy that demands to be at the top of the dps charts they are behind SKs and Monks on almost every encounter.

    Sicario (2015)

    I get that she's the audience perspective character. The problem is they wrote her as the leader of a FBI kidnapping response team and after the first 12 minutes of the movie not only is her backstory not relevant anymore but her actions are mostly incongruent with what we are told about the...

    Warning - this is a Salon article written by Courtney Love and I have not vetted it. It's just something I read years ago and is related to the discussion a little. It's about the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and how it was changed at the last second to fuck over musicians. From 2000 -...

    Prelude to Axanar (2014)

    Well, given when Star Trek was created the copyright will hold until 2063 provided that the law isn't changed again at some point to prevent works from 1978 and before from entering into the public domain after 95 years from date of publication. Which it probably will be because fuck you if...

    Sicario (2015)

    She's an FBI agent that leads a kidnap response team. We see what her team looks like at the open. That is a crew of operators that she leads. For her to have earned that position and to have done so as a woman would mean she was tougher than a coffin nail. For the rest of the film we never see...

    Sicario (2015)

    Everyone does a good job, it looks good, the soundtrack is good, and a lot of the film is very good but overall the story is just kinda weak. Emily Blunt's character is too naive and too idealistic over what really isn't all that big a deal. She takes stands at different points in the movie that...

    With her I always think back to how she was the one they chose to let go from Voyager when they introduced Seven of Nine. Kes had a number of good episodes where she was the focus, people liked the character, and she was gaining depth as the show progressed. The audiencehatedNeelix and was...

    Yeah, if you weren't on that train from the first minute you're going to be out of luck. I bought every single one I saw and raided the merchants in Lavastorm early and often always leaving behind one Saltpeter so they could refill. The real fun thing about saltpeter is that you basically...

    I also want to highlight also how disciplined the people that are leveling hardcore have been. They have not really taken time out to farm cash or items or anything.

    You really are just the worst kind of person.

    If you like slower exp that's fine. If you want everyone to have slower exp you're an asshole. All these shitty rates do is force people into the most efficient paths along the best zones. The whole rest of the server is empty. I hope your classic experience doesn't involve killing in South...

    What these exp rates do is force everyone into the most efficient patterns because any other use of our time is fucking pointless.
