    Ran Atziri's vault today for no reason other than it dropped. Dumbest thing in the world. I had a sextant I forgot about "items will/can drop as corrupted". Three 6 links - all corrupted lol. Only 6 links I got all league that weren't a tabula. All in the span of 2 minutes.

    Yeah, have a list of all the stuff to turn off. I installed windows 10 when it came out. Didn't care for it so just went back Windows 7. I'll still use windows 7 on my non work computer because I have no reaon to upgrade as of yet.

    Thanks, already have a key (or ask for another one from the company that gives them to me). I didn't really want to migrate because the drive has been there forever without a fresh install and no telling what's in the registery and such.

    Go ahead and laugh, not a computer oriented person. On my 2nd computer (IE work computer) I want to finally upgraded to windows 10 and scrap the really small SSD I have for a boot and put in a new one. Best way to do this with a fresh install would be to download windows 10 and do a flash card...

    Lesson of the day. Don't trust cheap feeler gauges. Got my strings and was doing a set up since I have played this guitar in a while. Felt pertty close but I thought I would check it. At first fret it is supposed to 0.020 give or take 0.002. Well the 0.020 gauge would fit but not the 0.018 lol...

    Extremely tired. Been up almost 20 hours. Anyway should really read the mods I roll. Hyrda, no life/mana regen and hexproof which killed my mana leech from warlords mark. Died almost instantly to having zero mana. Used two mana flask and made it. Kind of suprised myself. After that decided to...

    I trade in transmutes or alterations in bulk, stacks at a time. But trade in/sell what you have plent of at this point. Check out all the vendor recipes, can make the game much easier and go quicker. Can join the board guild (an officer will have to invite) and get acess to the guild stash and...

    I downloaded Visual Studio and muddled thru it for a few and made a very very very program that would do the math that I think he was getting off on. I did it in C++ only because I didn't know any better and didn't know the difference between that and C#, skipped Visual Basic for no particular...

    Did Vaal Temple this morning, kind of anti climatic. Was expecting real bad. Had a good corrupt I guess. Just damage, critical strike chance and multiplier, less armor and block and such. I guess it's time to research another build and start one.

    Up to 8ex now. I guess I should invest in a 6l chest. There was a 6l inpulsa last week that was 300c and I dicked around it sold before I made my mind up. Should have grabbed it.

    Today must be my incrediably lucky day. Got Exalt drop on shaper map after the div card drop on the guardian. Now prepare for looong stretch of nothing heh. Oddly enough was going to use elementalist triple herald BV for mostly faster clear speed. It really slows down fights to be able to move...

    I guess it depends on the time you play, Early morning US time I've had really good luck buying maps and/or buying maps 10 at a time. At night time US time not so much.

    Drops been kind of thin the last few days. Red Elder Guardian 45map, same pack today. More packs like these please. Hall of Grandmasters dropped off next pack as well. Stretches of nothing, then decent loot. Rinse and repeat. The Wolven King's Bite card - 120c Yoke of suffering -45c

    Lot of trigonometric calcs but it's all just pretty simple Sine, Cosine, Tangent, Cotangent of a few user supplied variables - stuff that I and 99% of the others who do this all use calculators for just this when in the field/shop - not having to do any of it when drawing in cad.

    Kind of my first thought as well. I gave him a detailed list of what needed to be done and the UI part should have been icnrediably basic, no graphics just "input X, Y, Z, output A, B, C," even without any descriptors of what was need or output. The operator would know. I have a very very old...

    The top ones for sale are all priced in chisels. I sold the ones I got for chaos. Leveling past where I am now not likely so might as well.

    Guess I have enough leech. Accidently did a tier 14 map with no life or mana regen. Took a minute to figure out what the issues was lol. Switched out mana flask and no issue. I normally start over on those but I guess I can just do them and save a scour.

    650c you should be able to gear up pretty well. I'm pretty sure that's less than in my entire build and I'm 92 and done most maps up to and including t15, 3 guardians. I still putz around in a 5l chest. I mean that's about 7ex at todays prices. I spent 50c on a jewel this morning and it's the...

    I can donate some white maps. In game name ChineseQuality. I'm on/off all the time. Send me a whisper and I'll hear the ding even if I'm not playing then. Made 92 which 91 went easier/faster than lvl 90. Died once, I was stopped looking at the temple before I ran an incursion and then boom...

    Did all red maps in lvl 90. I could sustain just getting red maps. I couldn't sustain just getting the one map I wanted to run or anything. Alch and go for most of them. Chiseled a few when Zana reset. Vaaled a few that I still needed. I think I bought maybe 2 maps that I still needed. I would...

    Ding 91 on my elementalist. I think I'm going to stop leveling and maybe concentrate on doing some temples. Only done them along the way but didn't concentrate on them.
