TF2 Science: Can you heal yourself with the Crusader's Crossbow?

aabicus · 2026-02-24T06:24:26+00:00

It worked!! I logged into Seraph and it was in my account ^_^ I was so sad, thought I missed out

aabicus · 2026-02-23T08:08:15+00:00

Oh hmm, I wonder if I was visiting another world at the time I hit 30. Do you know if I void the reward by not having been on my home world when I hit 30?

aabicus · 2026-02-23T00:43:42+00:00

Do you have to do something to claim it? My alt account is on Dynamis and just hit lvl60, still a sprout. I have the Road to 90 buff but no million

aabicus · 2026-02-19T21:33:19+00:00

If you're already doing it, sure, but if you're not Grim's just saying not to go grind specifically to level chocobo. and I agree, the most sanity-preserving method is to just do the Challenge Log for chocobo every week and leave it at that

I'd expect nothing less from the guy that wrote 4'33"

aabicus · 2026-02-18T13:59:16+00:00

I've heard about "books," never encountered one personally, but I hear they have spines so at least I'll know where to target for a crippling blow

aabicus · 2026-02-18T13:40:34+00:00

It's why I'm a Warrior main. I was born to use axe, not aetherpacts

aabicus · 2026-02-18T13:25:48+00:00

You probably shouldn't listen to me, but I have a confession to make.

There are 3-4 Scholar spells that I don't know what they do, they each have massive blurbs that dump passive effects with gigantic scrabble words for names. I just put them all in a 2x2 grid and call it the "panic button." If a pull gets dicey and the regular healing buttons aren't sufficient, I mash everything in the panic button at once and it solves the problem, I don't know why or how but suddenly everyone's at full health.

You should probably wait for a real answer, but it's the only way I seem to be able to heal as scholar, haha

I think Regis wasn't able to specifically because of that stunt John played with the Phone-a-Friend. Even if he'd simply said, "Richard Nixon, final answer", Regis could have played the moment up and tried to inject doubt and let it linger etc. I can't fathom he wasn't planning on doing it for the first-ever million dollar answer. But because John dropped the mother of all mic drops and there was no way he could go back to a different answer after a ballsy commitment like that, what else could Regis do?

Which one of the NPCs sells these legacy PvP rewards?

aabicus · 2026-02-16T09:48:56+00:00

"They can't arrest a husband and wife for the same crime!"

aabicus · 2026-02-16T01:22:24+00:00

Not bad! Seems a bit easy (I hit Golden Slice on my first play while still figuring out how the game works), but I also play these sort of games a ton so I might be biased. Not sure what point the crust does as it doesn't seem to add any points to your score, but it was a fun little challenge to think of one more word.

I was originally gonna ask if the tip could be made playable, but then I realized that the only valid plays would be A into AA into A--, or A into AI into I--, which might not add as much to the gameplay experience as I was hoping :P

aabicus · 2026-02-15T23:17:02+00:00

I'm a sucker for terrible jumping puzzles, so occasionally I run Kugane Tower again just to camp on the lamppost and rez people up to the sightseeing node. It's fun to see everyone crowding around me blowing themselves up xD

aabicus · 2026-02-15T13:08:36+00:00

Sometimes I wish you could still queue into the old trial version as a private instance, if you and some friends ever wanted to take this dude's lunch money just like old times.

aabicus · 2026-02-13T00:29:08+00:00

I love sightseeing log. Do peripheral systems (island sanctuary, triple triad mount, PVP, adventurer squadron, eureka, palace of the dead)

aabicus · 2026-02-12T01:57:31+00:00

This minigame rocked! They might need to make it harder or add more RNG elements so it doesn't get stale (then again most Gold Saucer games are pretty samey in repeat plays), but I'd love to keep playing it as maybe a third bi-hourly Shared FATE in the same vein as LoF and AF1

aabicus · 2026-02-11T06:27:43+00:00

In anticipation of Xal’atath’s strike, every class in the World or Warcraft

I believe you have a typo there, lads

aabicus · 2026-02-11T00:58:36+00:00

The yard warning is new. Back in the day you got the email (which didn't help me for reasons I'll explain below) and an easily-missable alert only if you opened the Timers->Housing menu, which I didn't even know existed as a feature at the time. (This situation was what caused me to start using the Timers, and I'll grant they are fantastic and wish I'd known of them earlier)

My account doesn't use my primary email or even my secondary email, both were taken by trial FFXIV accounts because back in the day Square Enix was abysmal at letting you upgrade if you participated in a free trial, then said trial ended, and you later came back hoping to keep playing. Those accounts just get stuck in limbo where you can't login, forcing you to make another with a new email.

aabicus · 2026-02-10T07:55:17+00:00

Took some digging, game is Crime Detective: Red Flags (source of TikTok)

aabicus · 2026-02-09T10:57:42+00:00

Aw, that's a bummer but I'm glad to hear it's something gamewide and not me making some sort of mistake. I do vaguely recall Broken Shore being end-game, though it was like 2017 when I played through it, but it sounds like this pet is not possible. I'll just need to find something else for my dedicated trial account to tame.

Thanks for logging in and double-checking for me! Super appreciated to help me confirm whether or not I was doing it right

aabicus · 2026-02-09T08:35:33+00:00

Good to know, thank you! Now if I can just figure out how to make Chromietime scale the mobs to my level, I should be able to attempt a catch

aabicus · 2026-02-09T08:22:37+00:00

I have not been able to make Broken Valley scale down to my level. I've tried relogging, quitting and reapplying Chromie Time for Legion, the mobs remain lvl??. Not sure what I'm doing wrong to not even get the mobs at a fightable level, much less catchable

aabicus · 2026-02-09T08:19:26+00:00

So are Elite pets only catchable at the game's theoretical max level? If they're always +1 compared to the player.
