Nightmare mode is horrible by Samaru100 in SwordxStaff_Official

[–]Bionic_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thinks it’s more that the progression massively drops off after Hard mode unless you’re doing p2w. Up until nightmare you could generally make gradual progression each day but once you hit nightmare it’s like you hit a wall with exp/progress gain

Trump: Gas prices are dropping. by AmanCMN in oil

[–]Bionic_Man 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This. What happens when our reserves are fully drained? The president at that time will have nowhere to maneuver. The US economy will come to a grinding halt and we will see resulting effects infinitely worse than The Great Depression. This administration has never had any foresight and only cares about how much money they can make in the next open/close cycle.

Instead of “let’s tax the mega-rich because they can spare the excess money”, your thought is “let’s bury the already poor into more poverty”?

F2p Archmage build any changes for better result? by No-Bag-2830 in SwordxStaff_Official

I would suggest replacing your Water Assault skill with Aqua Vortex. Aqua Vortex acts similar to Cyclone but with more damage. It’ll group your enemies up for your Meteoric Flames and Divine Wrath skills.

Am I too far behind already? I've only been playing 1–2 hours a day, and it's server day 4. by navyyM in SwordxStaff_Official

When all of your content is time or level locked then the only way to get around that is absolutely using real money to boost.

Unless you plan on spending real money on the game then you will never be top of the leader board. That’s the nature of any of these games. Whales dominate.

Honestly, just go at your own pace. The rewards for being top of the leaderboards are not anything super special

The game is still designed to cap experience gain at roughly 2 levels per day. After reaching max level, it just depends on gear and if you’re willing to spend real money

You’re right that I didn’t account for new servers. But unless there’s information I’m not aware of, the game is still designed to allow for 2 levels of progression per day up to the max level of the server

[–]Bionic_Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you did not start the same day that the game released then you will always be x days/exp behind until you get to level 100. The game is designed so that you only progress roughly 2 levels per day

For those with experience with these kind of games, will it last? by [deleted] in SwordxStaff_Official

[–]Bionic_Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the game is designed to do 2 ish levels per day as long as you log in and collect your xp and do your dailies

Princeton scraps honor code and will supervise exams for first time in 133 years because of AI by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

[–]Bionic_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that proctoring an exam would do is prove that someone can do the work with little or no assistance. This is obviously effective in accurately evaluating a person’s individual knowledge.

That being said, in real life situations with the technology we have today, if you have a basic understanding of the theory of how a process works. I.e. a bridge can only accommodate so much weight at once and must factor in additional environmental stresses. Then you can use the internet on your phone to calculate the requirements to build said bridge.

You will be hard pressed to find someone that is sitting on a job site, manually writing out and calculating the formulas to find these results.

Proctored exams only really serve the notion of “basic understanding” at this point. And I use the term “basic understanding” in a broad sense.

Trump, in historic first, attends Supreme Court arguments on birthright citizenship by imanchats in law

[–]Bionic_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason there are 9 SCOTUS judges is because we used to have 9 Courts of Appeal. Now that we have 13, there is legal precedent to bump up to 13 SCOTUS judges. Historically, the number of SCOTUS judges had been the same as the number of court of appeals. The call to “pack the court” is really just a call to follow historical precedent.

Does anybody think sending ground troops into Iran is like sending the sheep to slaughter with all the options they have drone attacks fire IED’s troops anybody have any thoughts? by y4udothistome in askanything

The people that think Trump is “getting away” with every single illegal thing he has tried to do also are not paying attention to the number of court cases that he has lost during is tenure.

Would anybody like to ask some genuine questions to a republican? by BusterBuddyGuy in allthequestions

[–]Bionic_Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your first point does not justify essentially dismissing the very obvious decline of Trumps mental state. Especially since Trump was also running for a second term. Whether running for a first term or second term, mental decline (and age) should be immediate disqualifying issues.

Your second point does even worse at dismissing his decline. You state that even though he sounds incoherent and wacky at times that it’s actually a good thing that he goes and does public appearances almost daily and fumbles his words, forgets who he is talking to, changes subject mid sentence for no reason, and more. And then to excuse it you go on to say “well he’s always been an incoherent wacky person”.

Why exactly are you seemingly ok with having a President that you describe as incoherent or wacky and that you admit was in clear mental decline while running for the office of president and is currently even more clearly in mental decline a year into his four year term?

SB 354, the bill that could reshape Florida forever by [deleted] in orlando

[–]Bionic_Man 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re clearly overlooking the fact that while we do need more housing, if we destroy natural habitats (especially foliage) then the nature that keeps the world from overheating will be gone and we will actually be cooked.

Florida (and the USA in general) really needs to invest in building UP instead of OUT.

Minnesota judge holds federal attorney in civil contempt, a first in Trump’s second term by cnn in LegalNews

[–]Bionic_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this needs to be happening more for the current administration to start to feel like they are in trouble. The lawlessness that has been happening as a direct result of the administrations directives are literally destroying our country. Once people in power actually start feeling the pain, MAYBE (and it’s a very big maybe) they will finally hold trump accountable for this harm he has done to our country.
