    You use Somatic Shell to trigger a spell from spellslinger that will then explode the shell. Presumably it's a wand attack.

    My company is using gpt for that aspect of agentic "code review" and they haven't really set it up or tweaked it at all so basically everything copilot tells you to do in your PRs amounts to "Hey this is different, we suggest you revert it" It's kind of hilarious.

    Something about the idea of not working this early in my life (I'm 43), makes me feel uneasy, even though my portfolio is strong enough to retire reasonably comfortably.

    The bloodlines seem very well thought out. Not overly powerful to the point you'd always want to take them but interesting enough to open up a lot of new build ideas.

    I understand what you're saying but slam skills are ranged hybrids as well. VFoS was even more AoE screen clearing coverage than peak LS and Frostblades. There is no way to make Melee good without Melee skills acting like ranged / AoE skills. Heavy Strike of Trarthus is an insane skill gem...

    You're being incredibly pedantic. When it comes to melee there are strike skills and there are slam skills and strike skills have outperformed slam skills for a long, long time

    ???? Molten Strike, Lightning Strike, Frostblades, Smite And there are warcries that exert strike skills as well. Strike skills have been the kings of melee for a long, long time. Last league was an anomaly for melee.

    I'm a little salty about the elementalist golem nerf. Coulda went to 75% instead of 50%. Meanwhile they didn't touch Trickster ES shenanigans and barely nerfed one step ahead

    It's Xexx, not only does he like the Chinese slop "storytelling" and animation, he thinks it's superior. He's that guy everyone has run into at some point in their life who thinks Domino's is actually the best pizza there ever was.

    No, you do know. What I was mildly lampooning is 100% how it has worked for... 10+ years. And now it's being exacerbated by AI and outsourced recruiters and HR reps who are invested in only showing outsourced "talent" and being encouraged to do so.

    Over the years I've found that a large amount of any company's work force is filled with people that won't do anything unless they feel like they HAVE to do that thing.

    I guess I should clarify that it was a very small subset of functionality that was affected by this. We have a couple hundred services on these platforms and only 2 were broken which is essentially why it went unnoticed. It would have been caught in QA if it was causing widespread issues.

    There were failures, but nobody was even aware anything needed to be tested and this was not a normal scheduled deployment window (so we had no code we were pushing ourselves either). So the failures weren't even noticed. And monitoring didn't catch it because... well... the monitoring tool was...
