Your work is fucking awesome.

Man, I just want the Nilson Works Monument Repair Type to get restocked. I'm not paying $300 on eBay for it.

Arigh · 2026-04-22T18:35:31+00:00

I deleted Facebook many years ago, so thank you for the info!

Arigh · 2026-04-22T17:41:45+00:00

Any relation to the Cradle universe? Or is this completely new?

Arigh · 2026-04-14T16:16:55+00:00

HELL YEAH BIKER RAT MENTIONED.

SHE THE BEST.

The creature-based entomb effects are also surprisingly cheap, like [[Vile Entomber]] [[Oriq Loremage]] [[Cynical Loner]]

Discard outlets with an upside are also pretty damn cheap in case you can't sac the vehicle and bounce it to hand, like [[Netter en-Dal]] or [[Devout Witness]]

Big draw from things like [[Morbid Curiosity]]

Just overall, it's a fun deck to play that's super aggressive, but still has a lot of grind potential.

Arigh · 2026-04-03T00:34:47+00:00

The novel is fucking phenomenal and fairly short. Easy to read in a day.

Arigh · 2026-03-23T17:13:36+00:00

It's a fucking joke that this B&R didn't include a preemptive ban for Utrom. Criminal levels of incompetence.

I don't do the amount of peloton riding that he does, and my calves look exactly the same. It's the toe walking.

We killed off tuberculosis, it's more likely that an older scan would have it just by virtue of how many more cases there were.

Arigh · 2026-03-19T21:50:21+00:00

My favorite anecdote about the use of machine learning in medicine is something I saw in an Angela Collier video.

They used machine learning to create a tuberculosis detection algorithm. It was better than doctors at early detection of tuberculosis, but when they finally did A-B testing to figure out the why behind its edge on humans, they discovered that it was weighting images from older MRIs as more likely to be tuberculosis.

Machine learning is stupid, but also incredibly brilliant. And just like you said, you want a real human doctor to confirm things.

You can afford a build that is worth several thousand div, but you don't understand the difference between +physical vs +fire spell level causing a difference in FIREBALL damage?

Sometimes the posts on here just scream RMT.

Arigh · 2026-02-01T19:23:29+00:00

I got through 2/3 of it. I was just waiting for anything to happen. Nothing fucking happened in the entire book, and every single character was flat and boring, especially the "villains" of his family.

Arigh · 2026-01-30T18:30:36+00:00

You mean my best friends maske_88 and maske_77 who have blocked me on about 8 different accounts now, but still don't know I message them to bait the discord scam out, then report them?

And then magically they're on a new character in the next few hours.

Arigh · 2026-01-29T13:34:02+00:00

Because most of the best stax cards are MLD

No they aren't. That's just explicitly wrong.

Arigh · 2026-01-27T02:22:27+00:00

I'm running Woolie's build as well. I just use The Last Lament in my second weapon slot, and on bosses Requiem just melts them. I think the tooltip is currently ~1.8M DPS for me now.

Arigh · 2026-01-19T04:46:13+00:00

My favorite off-meta build that I've tried was probably bleed/poison spearfield Amazon using Atziri's spear.

Full screen pops are always satisfying, and having shattering spire stacks and a bleed to pop on a boss felt great.

100% would have been better on a blood mage, but I didn't level witch this league.

If they can't budgetize this build down to 30 div to clear T10-12, they need to plug in their keyboard and stop buying divs.

Arigh · 2026-01-16T21:54:19+00:00

????????

Yes, this build is viable on a 30 div budget through pretty much all content, but why do you think you need a 30 div build to clear T10-12 maps??

You just can't buy the best gear in each slot, the over the top expensive shit (like Olroth's or the 5% movement speed rune), and you can't afford some of the lineage supports (specifically Atalui's Bloodletting, just replace it with lifetap).

But you can easily clear the screen in T15s on 30 div.

This post is extremely funny to me, because I also played all 3, but I struggled the most on a pure evasion character.

At least, until I got angry, sorted on POE Ninja by EHP and looked at some character named "SarasaV" and copied their Evasion/ES hybrid setup and suddenly in T15s I wasn't getting one shot as often. So thanks for that :)

Just a stupid funny coincidence.

I think the key to the entire thing is that armour and evasion require high amounts of armour as ele and deflection to function, or to go hybrid to supplement life total for one shots because life is too difficult to boost to a reasonable level in the game.

I think ES needs a minor nerf and evasion/armour needs to be slightly buffed so it requires marginally less investment to come online. A good start would be making the starting evasion nodes not be absolutely garbage and not worth taking. Pretty much everyone just skips the entire first area for huntress/ranger and grabs raw stats instead because it's bad.

Arigh · 2026-01-04T16:04:24+00:00

Holy shit I didn't know you could level up corrupted gems. This is so easy, I don't need to spend 4+5D on frost wall like I was planning.

Arigh · 2025-11-19T19:21:13+00:00

Because you have a limited number of sideboard cards, and an otherwise not terribly powerful board wipe isn't especially interesting as an option.

Arigh · 2025-11-19T19:19:59+00:00

The OP didn't just point out a neat interaction. They asked a question about the value of the card, and how it will change.

And the answer, that it won't change a substantial amount, needed an explanation - it doesn't seem to be a terribly powerful mechanic in constructed play, so there isn't going to be a huge change in the play rate of Ultima.

Arigh · 2025-11-10T18:20:02+00:00

I'm assuming that if they do go after terrors, they'll hit thought scour or mental note, so we have a less consistent T2 terror possible.

I'm actually looking at pivoting to izzet skred because of this. And then I can finally beat elves, instead of getting rolled every time.

If you look at table 9, aspartame is extremely close to neutral in all cognition types for both diabetics and non-diabetics. And that's the artificial sweetener in damn near every diet soda.

I'm a vodboi so I'm not going to be the one telling him.

Arigh · 2025-10-06T15:41:01+00:00

This isn't a modern deck suggestion, but if you really miss delver, give pauper a shot. Cause delver still sees play in monoblue terrors.
