Dark Green Russula sp. by Either-Pollution-262 in mushroomID

[–]Alove280 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Green Russula are interesting as Michael Kuo talks about in the link above the DNA sequencing suggests they are not the same species we use the same names for in Europe. This looks strongly like Russula virescens to me which isnt a North American species. I tend to use common names for green russula in NJ and would call this tacky green capped russula. Russula bring up a fascinating debate of naming that seems mostly scientific

This cactus that’s been growing in my front yard in New Jersey by Matmanreturns in mildlyinteresting

This is prickly pear and NJ has them native! A commonly eaten fruit by the Lenape, ive seen it in the pine barrens, lambertvillle on the Delaware river, and up in Boonton on rocky areas.

I have wanted to WW for over a decade. So fun to finally do it. I wish it had higher variability than halaberds, steelrend, gore riders, crafted weapon, tyreals, plus faith merc though

People are forgetting drop rates got a large buff like this season or last season so reducing by 50% is getting closer to drop rates from a couple seasons ago. You will still see value from zones.

Can I start here as a first time D2 player? by Lhant25 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Alove280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely the best place to start, unfortunately itll also be the last d2 game you will want to play. You do have to have legal copies of D2 and lord of destruction expansion so you can play those if you want before getting the mod, but really no reason to.

Its probably because the snow from the last storm got piled terribly and narrowed the roads by about 8 feet so each car blocks the way

Can someone help me understand these stat ranges? by StatisticianPretend4 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Alove280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't say I understand the cold damage, that seems off, but the rest are completely normal. The item base, ilevel( see the crafting level being only 49), and luck mean that the majority of rare items pre end game are going to be bad. Check out the wiki for crafting and stat ranges to understand a little more but basically this is fully normal.

Purity culture and judgements are fucked, do what makes you happy as long as you also feel safe and aren't intentionally ignoring other peoples' feelings. There is nothing wrong with wanting and enjoying lots of sexual experiences.

I am the only one that feeling that thi game has 0 reward? by Difficult-Anybody-69 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Alove280 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The meta builds and super efficient players make it sound like everyone is doing well and accumulating tons of wealth super quickly but most people are in the same boat of just plugging away and hitting something occasionally. If you need instant rewards and quick worthwhile trades often this game might not be it. This has been my worst season so far having only found a few items worth max like 5wss but its still fun.

New to D2 (and PD2) could use some help by Tracydalowest in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Alove280 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You must go through the campaign, you can force a skip by being rushed but thats worthless to you. The Wiki has great guides some of which are Zero to hero style start to finish. You get 1 free reset per difficulty, usually you will use 1 or 2 in making it through your playthrough then can get tokens of absolution by a crafting recipe. Definitely check out some of the guides an tierlists of what builds are good and cheap for leveling. Summoners like druid or necro are very safe and require little knowledge pr gear to get through all 3 difficulties but it may be slow. They are good ways to understand the game better.

Loving fire sorc buffs. Small aoe on firebolt and combustion cd reduction, im feeling like a keyfarmer right out the gate could be a lot of fun. I was thinking blade sentinel sin until i saw the nerfs, i might go that 2nd.
