I meme on it, but I really enjoyed the story of Far Harbor. I don’t think too many of the plotlines in the base game were overly interesting, but I will fully admit to having a soft spot for the Silver Shroud one. I maintain that I wasn’t a huge fan of the voiced protagonist (the female protagonist’s VA was way better don’t @ me, male one sounded scared to swear) but that quest wouldn’t have gotten a smile out of me without voice acting.

Here’s an easily missed but funny NV line.

Scaling in this game is very frontloaded, so you get the highest benefit up to 20. So as long as you’re at 20, you’re good to go.
Keen, Lightning and Quality give you dex scaling (with strength in quality).

going keen, so I can enchant my weapon with whatever (lightning, magic or bloodflame). Not putting more strength in.

EDIT: Going up to 30 dex to get the fastest casting time without using the talisman (no room for it)

Hey, you know how you might want to mark the passage of time with longer hair or a beard?

Tough. The Mag’har options are certifiably silly in that regard.

Invade somebody called; ā€œi’ll solo youā€, they have 2 friends who immediately jump me.

solo yeah right (only want the 3 invasions for the quest, usually just port straight out and go back to being in offline mode)

EDIT: Ghiza’s Wheel is so heavy. Need 25 END just to carry it, vulgar militia saw and full moon crossbow with my relatively light armour.

After some wrangling, respeccing, rage and griping to some friends, I seem to have tweaked my ER build sufficiently.

Kept high Faith, added more points back into Vigor, restored heavier armour after trying to go caster, cut down number of incants I use.
Slam Blasphemous Blade up to +9. We can sever the very gods… togethaaaaa!

Finished Stray in 7H with a mostly exploratory mindset and indulging with mild observation of the game assets and environment.

A little too short of game time but I got what I wanted out of it. I doubt I’ll play it again even for achievement runs. ƀ solid 8.5/10.

Peeve: My bnet launcher has been stuck on ā€œApplying updatesā€ for WoW for like an hour now. Already did all the usual small fixes like clearing the cache, dnsflush etc and the only one remaining is reinstalling the bnet launcher
Which I really don’t feel like doing right now. Guess I’ll just go draw instead.
Why is technology like this?

Check em :point_right:

Oh so I can do an entire handstand in terms of tech struggles
But the second I complain it fixes itself?

Okay then.
Guess I’m tech-jesus now or smth.

Hire me to shout at your servers. I got a mean stare and will make them cower in fear.

Invoke the Machine Spirits!

I wish I was joking, but there’s a specific bit of kit I use at work that, so long as I follow the exact same procedure, count down between actions and general rhythm/motion I tried a while back? Works so much better than if you don’t.
I swear that thing’s possessed ._.

Often it’s simply having a set procedure which helps keeping you calm.

But sometimes. Sometimes anger fuels the machine.
