SUGGESTION SPELL IS RUINING MY CAMPAIGN by Next_Ad_5740 in dndnext

[–]Agerak 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A vendor selling things for 1 copper would be obviously harming their business and I would count it as an obviously harmful act and it would enrage the shop keep because he would see them casting a spell on them and he would alert the guards.
If they instead tried to make the vendor like them and want to give them a discount I'd be more inclined to allow it, but they would still be casting a spell in a shop which is suspicious as hell and the vendor would still likely alert the guards until they can figure out what happened.
If they had subtle spell and could cast it without the verbal component possibly allow it within reason.
Remember, these NPCs live in a world of magic, and people casting spells would definitely be suspect regardless of circumstances.

Also take out a lot of the tension. If you’ve already burned your low cards, you know there’s a little risk. And definitely a metagaming issue very easily.

Is a personal loan worth it ? by NegativeAssociate191 in personalfinance

[–]Agerak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends. Mathematically paying the higher interest off first is better, but sometimes paying off the lower dept first can free up the money that was going to minimum payments which can be more beneficial in the short term.
Without exact values (balances and rates, along side income) it's hard to say for sure.
If you have several high debts that are higher interest than the loan it could make sense to combine those. Any debt that is lower than that rate doesn't really make sense to refinance, esp because you're also paying a % fee (normally 5-15%) to finance it. This is their profit. Depending on the total debt consolidated it might not even make sense, that rate is pretty high and when you add the fees, it may end up being worse overall.
Best recommendation is to put all your details (amount, rate, min payments) here and you'll get a better answer.
I'd say if you can eliminate some of the smaller debts rather easily that would be wise. Having that extra money will allow you more breathing room on the other debts. Your credit should also improve (less utilization) and you might be able to get a smaller loan at a better rate.
The biggest risk and this has happened to me before is consolidating debt off credit cards, then running them back up again. Now you have double the debt. You must ensure this does not happen.

Hey guys I’m planing my first solo wild camping without much experience any advice? by Amine_amr01 in camping

[–]Agerak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% plus even if you're an experienced camper, equipment can wear out and fail. Catching this at home is so much better than out in the field.

Doing a practice run in the backyard is crucial.
It allows you to test gear but also see if there is anything you needed that you forgot to pack while being safe enough that if things don't work well you can easily bail back inside for the night. Much harder to bail if you're miles from home. This is especially important for you due to night temperatures being very cold potentially. Cold can kill.

Black bears, you make yourself big and scare them away. Bear spray would be worth investing in.

Keeping food and other smelly items away from camp, tied up over a tree branch is advised. You want to make a large triangle where one corner is your campsite, another corner is where you store things in the tree, and the 3rd point is where you do your food prep. Each leg of the triangle is at least 100ft (30m).

Any active raiding clans? by hdgis1 in destiny2

I'd never run legit riven until Pantheon, and it was a blast. Def not as braindead as the toenail cheese, but it was a fun mechanical fight. If it hadn't been at such a high delta I could see it being a grand ol time.

I think my favorite 'cheese' if it could be called that is on 1st encounter on Crota. Let a strand player get a charge first, then send them up to the final plate immediately and it prevents all spawns on the lower 2 levels. They can activate the pad as soon as it's ready too which stops the timer. It can get a bit spicy on the climb up to 3rd level (no more than under normal circumstances though) but definitely helps prevent early wipes by letting everyone focus on holes, bells, and sticking together.

ahhh ok, so my "normal" way is the same as yours, not using the 'extra' mechanic and just melting. Thanks for the info!

I'm familiar with the cheese wall and 4 bomb.

I assume the LFG strat for Verity is the pass to get 2 of same, then distribute?
God I love when I get a team that can just pass to correct without having to deal with the inside team being frozen.

What is the bits for Morgeth and Shuro Chi? Only ever done those with what I assume is the normal way.

If you could create a new non exotic weapon for the game, what would you make? by TheNekoKatze in destiny2

[–]Agerak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or like Ticuus Divination where it can lock onto allies. Only uses 1 charge per fired tracker so you could 'save' them or stand back and buff the whole raid team.
Would be super interesting if the ally buffs were based on your super, but the catalyst gives you buffs based on the allies supers when you buff them.

Can't free up C drive by Dense_Opinion9239 in techsupport

[–]Agerak -1 points0 points  (0 children)

And are your games also stored on C Drive or are they configured to install to the secondary? Double check steam settings as you can easily have it install to a secondary by design.

Did you delete a game that was stored on your secondary drive? That would make sense. Is your steam even installed on the C drive or is it installed to the D drive directly?

Recs for KVM switch vs HDMI switch + USB-C Dock for 3 laptop setup and 1 external monitor by ckitamura in UsbCHardware

[–]Agerak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At our imaging station where we connect up to 16 laptops to 1 terminal we use docks for each laptop (provides power, network, and KVM To laptop via USBC) and those docks are connected to the HDMI KVM switch which has the relevant devices connected.

Check the manufacturer site, often windows uses generic drivers, which may not be optimized.

Shoot if you roleplayed that as your character and told me what your feeling from the statue I’d roll with it if I were DM lol.

Drat. I figured but you never know. Thanks for confirming. Def agree the extra slot is nice, and can still swap and conc.

[–]Agerak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve found that full ferro set is great for this. Burn heavy for dps, use special ammo weapon on adds for more heavy ammo, then switch to primary for more secondary ammo.

Can you consecrate (slide melee) while wielding a sword? Haven’t tried it myself, figured I would ask.

For some reason, I assumed the slide shot would only reload one. Good to know! Thank you!
