    Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius

    I mean he's completely worthless as a 6*, but as a 7* he's one of the strongest units in the game. Either go for 7* or don't chase him at all.

    Lol similar position to Chysamere, very first contract after completing the story nets me full salvage on an Atlas. My lance is 390 tons, almost there!

    wat? yes he does. 7* Randi is fucking insane. I still use mine regularly.

    Hell I still haven't found a source for standalone patches if you don't use steam/galaxy.

    oh and i finally found another king crab, but it was on a pirate mission and only had 1/4 armor and i couldn't get more than 1 piece of salvage from it. reeeee Unless I'm being badly pressured, I go for as much salvage as I can on everything. The more mech salvage there is at the end of the...

    May's Retro Game of the Month is Super Mario RPG

    I honestly think Legend of the Seven Stars is the best game Square ever made, even edging out Kingdom Hearts 2 which I absolutely love. Either way the SNES era was definitely the golden age of RPGs.

    TBH I don't see it happening for at least 6-8 months. For people other than Ao who want to see JP unit stuff that isn't released yet, check out units - FFBraveExvius

    They are billions

    They had anti-piracy code in Titan Quest that made the cracked version unplayable, Titan Quest got bombed with negative reviews because of it. Even reviewers with legitimate copies made reference in their reviews to many people finding the game buggy and completely unplayable.

    They are billions

    Fun fact: Doing this with Titan Quest was a major contributing factor to Iron Lore being shut down.

    Man what's the point of playing shade if you aren't using double dagger and repeater.

    Vermintide 2

    I actually had a series of pretty good runs as shade today, so I'll keep trying daggers for a little while longer before I give up and try swords.

    Yes, side torso wounds always get cancelled out by ammo explosion wounds for whatever reason, although you can cause multiple ammo explosion wounds in a single attack.

    Would be truly awesome if you dropped it with a headshot after all of that.

    Gross. I have yet to see another King Crab after the mission where I got my current one. Seen plenty of highlanders, think I have 2 complete ones in reserve along with the 3 in my active lance.

    Vermintide 2

    I've come to the conclusion that the shade is basically unplayable in pugs, unless I'm just REALLY bad or missing something vital. And this is only on champion. The ability to instagib a single chaos warrior every now and then doesn't seem worth being terrible at hordes and not *that* much...

    Battletech

    The Jager, particularly the JM6-S, is kinda middling in the scope of single lance games like this one because it's a direct LOS fire support mech (that was also designed to fulfill an anti-air role which doesn't exist in this game). It doesn't generate as much stability damage as an LRM boat and...

    Battletech

    I don't actually try and tank both enemy lances with a single king crab, she's just there to draw fire when it needs drawing. For maps without any kind of ridge or hill to hide behind i can see how two close up mechs would be stronger than running double LRM boats, otherwise I like being able to...

    Battletech

    Seems incredibly excessive. LRMs are really inefficient for damage even with +dmg mods on them because the hit locations are so random. LRMs are for knockdowns, either for getting full salvage via wounds or getting free called shots against prone opponents. I also don't like running without full...

    Realize I'm a bit late but non-friable asbestos is pretty safe to remove, just don't bust the tiles up into powder as you're removing them. Friable asbestos is a lot more dangerous but it's a lot rarer to find. Friable vs non-friable asbestos | Breakthrough Group

    Health Problems

    Yeah it was the first and only time I've ever been on an IV so I didn't realize something was wrong at first. The nurse came back and noticed the enormous bulge in my upper arm before I could say anything about the pain lol

    Oh I'm well aware that kidney stones are horrifically painful, I was just pretty low on empathy at the time.

    Health Problems

    Some years back I had two bouts of moderate abdominal pain in about a month and a half or two month period, didn't go to the doctor. Came back again a couple weeks later except this time it was distinctly on the right side so I went to convenient care, who pretty much said 'nope emergency room'...

    Gauss rifles are Lostech, so yes. If HBS adds more obtainable Lostech beyond what comes with the SLDF mech you get and the lootable stuff from the final story mission (according to Chysamere), it may be possible to get more. As it stands now there is only the one and if you lose it, tough shit...

    Very minor spoiler, but somewhat helpful if you're aware of it now.

    Battletech

    Oh, in that case I suppose it's fine. Just bear in mind the RNG can get pretty brutal when a pilot dies to a random headshot or you get careless and let the only gauss rifle in the game get blown up.

    Actually mine has spent so little time in the medbay that she's about to be my first pilot with all 10s. Behemoth has been my injury magnet, but she's still alive and kicking. TBH this isn't a very good game if you aren't already a Battletech fan. Maybe after it gets some patches and polish.

    lol must be gated to the post game if you got two on your very first mission. How do you like fitting one compared to a king crab?

    Battletech

    No. Lostech is double heat sinks, ER energy weapons, pulse lasers, and the gauss rifle. Heat banks and exchangers are random lootable equipment like cockpit reinforcement or target tracking systems. Lostech is also very different from clan tech.

    Pit bulls - The Breed of Peace

    No, a pit will still meekly follow after you just like the chihuahua. You underestimate how much abuse a dog will take without lashing out if it's coming from the master. That's probably a big part of people not realizing how dangerous their dog is (aside from them just being a dumbass wakandan...

    Pit bulls - The Breed of Peace

    Obviously, but it doesn't take much to raise a terrier wrong and end up with a dangerous animal, other 'dangerous' breeds you typically have to abuse or intentionally train for aggression to end up with a problem animal. No surprise that both the edgelords and the shitlib trying to mock the...

    Pit bulls - The Breed of Peace

    I mean, once a pit bull (or any of the larger terrier breeds) has been raised wrong it should just be put down. Trying to 'fix' them is such a colossal waste of time when there is no shortage of non-problem dogs that could be adopted out.

    Weak. I remember reading somewhere there was talking of them patching in random lostech, but I haven't even figured out how to get the 1.01 update yet, i guess they still haven't released it as a standalone patch.

    Have you seen any lostech like what the SLDF mechs were sporting, or is it just + versions of standard inner sphere gear

    It's generally not worth moving up a weight class until you can jump up to somewhere in the middle of that weight class. I wouldn't use a dragon or a quickdraw, the thunderbolt and the orion were the only heavies I really used. Similarly wouldn't use a Battlemaster, Awesome, Victor, or Zeus...

    Battletech

    you should be able to sensor lock the LRM turret and bring it down before it fires too many times. Pretty sure a shadowhawk is a better all around mech than the dragon, you gain almost nothing in return for losing that point of initiative.
