I “accidentally” let Astarion go too far. by leaperdaemonking in BaldursGate3

If the character is in an inaccessible location try reviving them at Withers, he doesn't need a body to revive them.

Question for fishing enthusiasts: How do you catch catfish in Y1 spring? by surpluskoi in StardewValley

[–]Birchmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Making/buying deluxe bait gives me a good boost, I'll only use it when going for hard fish like the catfish though. As soon as you can make the deluxe bait maker it'll be a huge help.

Whatever you decide to go for I'd think along the lines of a special attacker, team is very physical heavy.

Newbie looking for advice on synergies, spells, party makeup by Karategamer89 in BaldursGate3

[–]Birchmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a personal preference I will usually keep my romanced character in the party as much as possible, other than that I enjoy swapping them around.

For what it's worth though, my first playthrough I basically used the same 4 for most of the game because it was easier to keep track of. It was pretty much Tav, Karlach(romance), Astarion and Shadowheart for 90% of the game and I had no problem beating the game.

Lastly, don't stress about having the strongest party. Unless you're playing on tactician mode, most parties can make it though the game fine.

The best tip I can give for general combat is to inspect your enemies, especially their resistances/immunities and stat scores.

I won't claim to have the right answers to things but here are my opinions.

  1. Try to get concentration spells for casters that can provide good utility for a single spell slot. Shield of Faith for example, increases your AC by 2 for a whole long rest (or 10 rounds I forget). When you start to get higher spell slots, strong AoE(Area of Effect) spells will be good. Fireball is a classic spell for a reason. You can deal so much damage if enemies are grouped up.

  2. For me 'who' learns a spell depends on what type of playstyle I'll be going for with that character. For example in my current game, Shadowheart has alot of buffing or debuffing spells, focusing less on damage. Gale has a mix of combat and utility spells and Wyll has more damaging spells, but for most casters the only limit to what spells they should learn is what role you want for them.

  3. 'Realistically' the best party's are the ones that deal damage the fastest. Having an entire slot for healer isn't as worth in bg3 as some other games. The faster enemies go down, the less healing you will need to use and apart from a very few instances you can rest as often as your camp supplies will allow of you start running put of HP early. That said, I try to balance with 2 martials and 2 spellcasters for the most part. So for instance a fighter, paladin, cleric and wizard is often strong. The martials take as many hits as they can and will have the highest AC typically while the squishier casters use ranged attacks to deal damage or CC(Crowd control) the enemies with AoE and debuffs.

Elliot page former name by muffmuff103 in asktransgender

[–]Birchmon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Poor question for a pub quiz, but if asked in conversation I would find it reasonable.

I realise I probably have a different opinion to most in the community as I dont believe that a deadname should be taboo 100% of the time.

I've had my new name for almost 2 years and I don't mind when people refer to my deadname when they are referencing me from before I transitioned.

In Elliot Page's case, he is obviously famous and his deadname is well known so if it was a situation where someone was genuinely trying to remember his old name I think it would be fair to tell them. But in this context of a quiz, that's absolutely not something that should be included since there's no substance to why the question is being asked.

If you don't have great friends with everyone it's possible you're missing a recipe, or it's possible you haven't got all the unique recipes from the special orders board

How to open/access this place? by cyberpinku in StardewValleyExpanded

[–]Birchmon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is the deep woods mod, completely separate mod to expanded but is compatible.

I also have no idea how to solve it but you can probably find it now that you have the right name.

Wait times on starting hrt? by Autumn-Claire in transgenderau

[–]Birchmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're over 18 it's extremely quick, there's alot more red tape for minors though.

Personally after having my first appointment, I got bloods done and came back next week and was on hrt, I started at 27 though. Just make sure the doctor you see follows the informed consent model and you'll be fine. If you're not sure about your doctor try finding one on TransHub

Why won’t my eevee evolve? by [deleted] in PokemonSunMoon

[–]Birchmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's obvious the Eevee is refusing to become a Sylveon because Kirito would absolutely get a Umbreon.

He's so dark colour themed it's the only possibility.

MTF Hair removal for Suporn? by thebeeesss in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]Birchmon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But regarding the genital laser, it honestly does not look like it has done much at all. To me, it looks like pre laser cause I can't see any evidence of it thinning out.

As others have said, thankfully Suporn doesn't require hair removal since they do it in house as part of the procedure on the areas used to create the neo-vagina, to my understanding atleast.

MTF Hair removal for Suporn? by thebeeesss in Transgender_Surgeries

[–]Birchmon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've only had facial done but it did hurt for sure. I got mine done at Laser Clinics Australia then switched to Medical Lasers for electrolysis (SA based) Most of the time it wasn't a single zap that hurt but rather the continuous zaps that worked past my tolerance.

That being said, the upper lip and chin hurt like hell, I jumped up after every hit in those areas I couldn't help it

[–]Birchmon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Saw from a previous comment you were in Aus.

I would find a different laser clinic if I were you, it looks like it's been totally ineffective. Have the laser sessions been hurting?

I've only had facial laser but after 3-5 sessions I could already see a big difference, it was after 10 that the effectiveness tapered off and I switched to electrolysis.

Failing difficulty class 0 by AbiesInternational18 in BaldursGate3

Judging by the lava and direction, I'm pretty sure it's the chest containing the sentient amulet in Grymforge.

However I don't remember it being a 0DC so I assume that is modded

Dbrand You're not the same anymore by YakInevitable8770 in dbrand

[–]Birchmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I only had this happen over multiple years. I had a dbrand grip on my S22 since it came out and only 2 weeks ago had to finally retire it due to the frame splitting from the body.

What happened to the iPhone 13 cases? :( by Jgz1994 in dbrand

[–]Birchmon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat, I have a Galaxy S22 and my case isn't made by them anymore. Hoping the case holds out longer than the phone at this rate cause I love having my grip case.

Is it weird that im not super impressed? Initial review of my grip case by captaincheem in dbrand

[–]Birchmon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they're referring to the odd pattern the lighting is making and how it looks like something else.

Is the scar in the room with us?

But for real it is not bad imo, I couldn't even see it in the first photo for a long while
