    Ive been debating on jumping back in to try it, but not been very impressed with the reactions Ive seen on the expansion. Im still grumpy about all the PEN blackstar fails ive racked up, not sure this expansion is the thing to draw me back in yet. I have been kinda feeling the pull of switching...

    Apparently it was for her too. A lot of what Lambourne said resonated though, our priorities are clearly in different areas. Those late night/early morning runaway trains of thought can be a doozy though when it's all still fresh. I, maybe naively, see sex as part of a larger whole that while...

    Met for the first time on a friday, spent five of the next 7 days together, stayed over that next friday, this happened saturday morning. You're right about not dwelling on it, though. You and Rajaah have settled my mind a bit. I'm not the most experienced dude out there, as a former very...

    Dating

    Seemed into it at the time, nothing to give off the lack of chemistry impression, and as to the rest, very likely. I tried to match her enthusiasm overall but maybe, yeah. She is 37, and kinda the opposite. Her history is a bit more adventurous than mine so maybe the bar was just higher? Size...

    So, this might be a bit on the embarrassing side to ask, but I cant think of a better place to get honest, probably too honest, viewpoints on it. So I had been dating a girl briefly, talking and dating for just a couple weeks. Things were moving very quickly from the initial talking to the meet...

    On a non-pve shitstorm related note, I saw an article that said if you've played OW2 from Day 1 and made sure to complete all challenges and passes as a F2P player, you will just now, 7 months in, finally have earned enough premium currency to buy one legendary skin from the shop.

    What he said ^ If you didnt authorize the transfer during that 6 month time frame, your data was lost and you gotta start from zero. There is no transferring it after the fact or recovering it, it's completely gone. Depending on what you had/lost it really isnt such a big deal as it's easy to...

    Havent been actively playing, but I have been popping on to receive the anniversary rewards. Got enough crons for another attempt at PEN blackstar, failure #21. Law of averages has officially failed me, back to hibernation :confused:

    Yeah, it can be annoying though. If youre looking to buy them to melt into crons, pre-order costumes that come in the premium pack, classic pack, etc because those get handed out as rewards often. If you're looking for a costume to wear, your mileage will vary depending on class and what's...

    If you didnt authorize Kakao to transfer your data to PA, it all went poof :( On the plus side, if you havent played for that long, catching up to wherever you were gear wise wont take long. Hopefully you didnt lose a lot of cash shop stuff though.

    Regarding the time piece, it kinda is. When you click the time piece, you will have to choose one of your other characters (under level 25 i think is the limit). Your current season character will become a standard character and the lowbie you picked will become a season character with the same...

    Most folks doing training are doing so to turn the horse in via Imperial Delivery to get the flower things for T10 attempts. I dont believe many people do training for money as there are far more lucrative ways to spend your time while afk. That's a weird sentence but you get what I mean :P...

    I feel like most of my attacks with the Nova require shift, so Ive almost always got it held down. Pretty much every character Ive put significant time in was that way. Moving like that is too ingrained at this point. Didnt they say another Jhammer would go out with the Maegu release? I havent...

    Grats! Im hoping to get lucky from Nouver/Garmy kills over the course of the event. I spent too much of my money on horse gear for some reason and now I cant afford a Garm heart PO anymore. I really do make questionable choices sometimes, but my horse is very dapper now.

    ^ What they all said. The enhancement system is still the big bogeyman in the corner that will suck all your fun away if you let it. Take one of the few dozen other avenues to better your gear and just buy stuff. Most things in BDO require a good chunk of grinding to obtain (Flame of Frost...

    That makes sense. I was hopeful, for the briefest of moments, that the game had bugged out and I benefitted for a change. As a result Ill likely fail my next dozen PEN Blackstar attempts. Ive actually never played a Wizard so I cant comment, but it is a great time to hop on a season server and...

    Interesting. Im surprised that straight up duped them though, but I guess if the presets could be applied to every character people would overall need less crystals, but being able to sell the dupes is an interesting development.

    Black Desert

    Sooo....I think all my crystals got duped? If im understanding how everything worked after the patch, the game removed all my crystals from my character's gear and dumped them into my storage. My Heidal storage was full, so they were considered overflow and appeared only once I cleared space. I...

    You've got plenty of time before the season ends, so dont feel rushed. Season servers offer increased drop rates on stuff, I'd recommend farming skill points/exp while you're farming for treasure pieces, such as the Infinite Health Pot. Currently there's an event going on that offers more...

    I dont think they are necessarily rarer when they're made, they just sell fast so it will take a little luck or just camping the stable master. The pegasus has the highest base speed stats so for general riding from Point A to B so they are always preferred over the other two unless you're off...

    Keep your eye on the horse market and if you see a Pegasus with decent stats, buy it. With a Tri Manos riding crop, it's so worth it for the time it will save you doing literally everything else in the game. It took me 36 tries to make my first dream horse. Even having years worth of saved mats...

    Sherekhan at night is the best way to farm that mess, I'd usualy pull 2-3 pity per night cycle., and it's pretty good money too. I managed to finish the Pavino Greko adventure logs. Very frustrating with having to have completed the timed quests , but the end result is pretty nice. An extra DP...

    I should wrap it all up today, but the entire process has driven me nearly bonkers.

Visit each desert shrine in 14 minutes? Nah...

    I decided to take a break from grinding for a bit and work on Pavino Grecko's travel journals for the extra HP, which made me realize Id never done the herald's journal so Ive been working on that so I can finish books 3 and 4 for Pavino. These timed quests are so ass.

    Ive fortunately (unfortunately for the current situation?) already have the Aakman compass piece so Im stuck in Hystria for the remainder. The Woosa is clearing it pretty well, even in season gear, although Ive not put as much time into it that I should have. My attention waffles between Hystria...

    Yep, they suck. Save that piece til last, then being nearly finished with the pot will add to the motivation to grind it out. Im gonna spend some more time farming for the compass parts I need, it's just a shame this event doesnt up the drop chance as well.

    All the wartime pics inspired me to dig out a few old pics of my granddad from his WW2 days in Japan. His buddy snapped this as he was hanging out on the wreck of what he said were crashed Kamikaze planes in Japan. This was snapped as his boat (USNS Marine Adder) was returning him to the US...

    The Woosa is pretty fun. Figured I'd dork around on the season server while i wait for this next Hammer (and the accompanying PEN failure). How long does it take to get through this magnus nonsense? I just want to be able to move stuff from bank to bank.

    Yeah i saw those coming. I still log in daily for the rewards but that's been the extent of my playing over the last few weeks (months?).
