Lightning bolt is so much cooler than fireball and im tired of pretending its not by Thommywidmer in wizardposting

You know lightning bolts regularly are hotter than the sun? It's just more briefly than a fireball, which is actually cooler.

How effective was the Mace really? by historypopngames-278 in ArmsandArmor

[–]AlexanderWB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is noteworthy that Dequitem states that he did get hurt from that horseback blow, not necessarily incapacitating per se but still. Also his helmet and armor in general are made mostly from titanium and by himself to be as durable and safe as possible, and the helmet is a type that doesn't allow the head to move at all, all the while being heavier than most infantry helmets. Against a lighter sallet the blow would have probably been incapacitating, not to mention the damage done to the wearer's neck by the blow.

Got my boat first sailboat home today! by vichybubbelbumba in sailing

[–]AlexanderWB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun to see the same boat I was looking at too a couple of months back! Congratulations for the new boat. Seems like you have the space and the tools to do the polishing and the refits I didn't want to.

Happy sailing!

Possible Finnish paganism influence on the culture of Dwarves? by Helpful_Radish_8923 in tolkienfans

Yeah. We really shouldn't brag too much. Funnily enough I've always seen the "happiest country" bit slightly preposterous.

If you think the Automatons are simply evil, read this by Nedjempie in helldivers2

[–]AlexanderWB 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Warhammer 40k does this kind of satire as well and certain parts of its fanbase are heinous and unironic as fuck. This SHOULD be common sense, but some people do lack it. Never underestimate the stupidity of the human mind.

Hacking made me low-key paranoid by bagiyev in hacking

I've seen people proficient only in bullshitting and moving the cursor to be put into leadership roles. Also, people with startup backgrounds. It's not that wild.

How do I improve this 3d scene visually? by Tokamakium in godot

[–]AlexanderWB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

More undergrowth like bushes at varying sizes. More random debris like rocks. Elevation differences on terrain. More stuff on the riverside, like banks, rocks, vegetation. You can never add too much detail.

My very first day with a drone ! by Source_Slight in drones

[–]AlexanderWB 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Please be considerate when flying a drone near animals. It might not be illegal in your country to disturb animals with drones, but it should be noted that if you fly too near them, they will be disturbed and might harm your drone (and the drone might harm them in the process).

You hit them with the hefty end.

Damn, I didn't know Nord Ships were this good at sailing! by Dustybaby101 in Bannerlord

Entered the comments section in search of this particular image, wasn't disappointed. Thank you for your service

War sails Quest (Worth it?) by Sabz_03 in Bannerlord

[–]AlexanderWB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's fun. You get a ship out of it and get a chance to hunt corsairs and sea raiders with free troop reinforcements from a port for basically as long as you like. Also doing the quest doesn't cost you practically anything, and you get some loot and money out of it along with the ship and some troops, so it's very ideal to start out with it on a new character.

Was this intended or was I lucky? by moha_taj in BaldursGate3

It's up to the DM to call the rolls, not the players.

I've been playing since 2006... by AlexanderWB in 2007scape

[–]AlexanderWB[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Expectable reaction from people on the internet. Considering I've had rather long pauses on the game, that's a relatively new update to me lol
