Ironically, my server is almost completely split. Purple owns the southern ones, green the (most valuable) middle ones, and yellow the northern ones.

I don't know if it's true, but everyone on my server has been saying the loot drops scale inversely with the amount of people there. So zerging shit means your drops get throttled down. I've only ever done it with a single group once (and it was basically just me and a tank, and we slowly...

Is FoH still syndicate? Just want to make sure if I switch I don't fuck it up.

Is Syndicate the predominate faction on Vingolf? Thinking I may transfer there, but I'm Covenant right now. Although I'm not entirely sure I can change factions to Syndicate on my server either.

Isn't that what I said? I write contracts for a living, I know getting a lawyer does nothing. What I should've done is just ate a month worth of rent (give 30 days notice after closing). It'd cost $2k and that sucks, but it would've meant no stress.

I should also point out that I've used thousands of the tier 5 reagents, too. And I think my highest skill is around 125. Getting to 200 with the old drop rates is going to be a grind that makes most people quit the game.

I wasn't trading them, I was using them.

Nerfed drop rates on refining agents. Good luck crafting from here on out!

It really is though. You don't notice a lot of the time because you can just brute through shit. But like I mentioned earlier today, nearly every perk on weapons/armor is broken. They either don't work at all, make your skills do literally zero damage, or like the armor one make you damage...

It's funny, my wife the other day said that in a few months we wouldn't remember this. I was like, uh, no, I will definitely be pissed about this for years. When we bought our house in 2015, the title company fucked up and didn't courier our documents to the county office on time. It was a...

I'm just not sure what a lawyer does in this case. Our contract doesn't guarantee a particular date they have to close by. And from my research, nearly every new construction contract is like that. There's not a lot to hold a builder to a schedule. You just kind of have to eat the shit...

So we talked to the builder sales rep. He basically said they grade the property and lay sod at the same time. Once again I feel like he's lying to me. But maybe they do sometimes? Apparently one of the sod guys was arrested, and two others didn't show up to work. So I asked if he had a schedule...

Fuck that, I'm not contributing 10 orichalcum bars for 750 rep. I abandon those every single time. They were okay (starmetal) when I was leveling because they gave a ton of exp, but that's useless to me now.

Sadly, I'm just now realizing I should have leveled entirely off town boards and nothing else. The amount of rep you need to get worthwhile storage is obscene. And you can't do shit without storage.

Another closed beta? Why?

Last night we asked if we could just do the sod ourselves (we had assumed the property was graded). They said they can't allow us to for "liability reasons." I may ask if we sign a liability release if we can (assuming they grade the fucking place). We're hopefully going to talk to them soon...

Well I've been absolutely seething this morning. We were originally supposed to close today, but on Friday they told us the appraisal came in late (Thursday, was supposed to be Tuesday) and they had to push it to this Thursday. Last night our realtor said, hey, good news, the sod is outside the...

Was reading about some item perks, and wow, it seems like almost everything item related is broken at the moment. Most of the perks don't work, amber and diamond gems aren't working. This game is more of a shit show than I knew. Gear seems to barely even matter since it's all broken as fuck.

The repair cost after a full night of grinding is also several hundred gold. I think my last repair all was like 300ish, and stuff was probably half durability. You're essentially just treading water at this point.

"Money is worthless" "I use my cash frequently" Uh...

I think that's a fundamental error in having t1 materials be the bedrock of everything. Why pay for them when I can just go gather them myself? And without gold injected into the economy from mobs (or vendors), I'm much better served doing that. If it was faster as a 60 to farm mobs for money...

Yep, it's a complete race to the bottom. I think people have realized it, too, and are just trying to get whatever they can before everything is worthless. Like, I noticed cinnamon was 8g the other day, so I went and farmed a bunch. Put it up at market price, and this morning it's selling for 4g...

Weird, I was able to sell two (old) log storage chests for 350 yesterday on my server (which is slightly above population of Vingolf). Cherry bunk bed is still the best way to level from 56 to 100 I think.

I'm curious how a "study" like this works. Because as I was reading it, I was thinking that I opened a new Robinhood account in 2021, and I have about $500 in it. Are they counting me as part of the 90%? Because Robinhood sure as fuck doesn't know about my other accounts which firmly puts me in...

I guess if you want to stay directly in the park, maybe? Arches only has I believe one campground. There are a fuckload outside though. And a lot of those are first come, first serve. Yosemite I know for a fact you can get in with just a few days, as we did it two years ago.

Yeah, that's why I singled out Yellowstone as likely being impossible. I haven't been since 2007, but that place is kind of a different beast.

Have they fixed anything though? Like, they said they fixed the issue with titles, and yet every time I log in I'm bombarded with spam about titles to claim. Same ones every time! They fixed treasure chests "not fighting back" in fishing. Except did they? And was that really important? Oh, but...

I'm not positive about what you're describing, but that's essentially the concept behind water towers.

It's been happening on a limited basis for the last couple months. It's just a matter of time before panic sets in and people start clearing out the shelves completely.

If you travel in the off season you can absolutely do it. I'd say with major attractions like Yellowstone or Yosemite, you might need to book it a week or two in advance (Yellowstone might be impossible to do this way, to be honest, so your other stops may be dependent on it). It seems like...

Seems like they're just taking the laziest approach to fixes. They got rid of gold from fishing chests because of fishing bots.

I mean, they have a thing in the contract stating that they can't commit to a date. I'm not sure that the expectation of closing is worth anything.

Ah well shit, I had the one guy for the quest (Tzi-Wang) and I couldn't find him, but I kept seeing a massive group running around that area. Guess that's what they were doing.

This is what my advice would be. It's also why I like a van over something bigger. A lot of places you just can't take something over a certain length. Another advantage of our van is it fits in a normal parking spot. I've got a coworker who's driving across the country in a few weeks, and it...

Yeah, I get it. But when I have to give 30 days notice for a rental, it really gives me almost no options. Whole thing fucking sucks. I guess my only option would've been to just pay an entire month of extra rent and only give notice after we already close. But considering my rent is $1900 a...

We already had that. We were supposed to close in September originally. Pushed to October 19, now two days later.

It's fine. It is what it is. Like I said though, my only concern now is that they still don't get it done on time and have to push closing again. I don't want to work anymore, but if I have to do so another week, whatever. And yeah, I also don't want to reschedule everything, but it can be...

I think it's still a solid game, but they really need to start fixing shit. That it'll be almost a month post release and no one can run end game portals and dungeons doesn't bode well. In fact, almost all the fixes they've done in the two patches have been so minor that they likely wouldn't be...

Magnus again in game 3. This is gonna be a sweep.
