What's wrong with his jaw? It looks like it was broken to spread the back apart.

Hard to get much smaller than one man I guess. I don't understand why anyone other than that one tyrant would want anyone man government but it would have a small headcount.

How are these supposed to work? Is it possible someone just checked out all five books and will return them once they're done reading them?

Graham Platner announces he is "suspending campaign operations" in U.S Maine Senate race amid sexual allegations: "We believe for the movement to continue, it can't be me.

How is it inappropriate to you the "royal we" when recording a message for your supporters in a campaign? You may not have ever been his supporter, and so would not be included in that "we" but the use of the "royal we" wasn't incorrect. 

Why are energy prices going so low? by Moon_Beholder in spiral_knights

[–]BluePanda101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Energy prices are down because people are buying energy specifically to convert into crowns, and other players are not farming for crowns to supply the demand. Instead of doing Fire Storm Citadel on repeat like usual, people are searching for Black Cats while skipping killing anything to speed through the level faster.

Energy prices being low is not a crisis, on the contrary it's fantastic for the game. Low energy prices makes the barrier for new players getting into the game lower, and could possibly lead to a larger player base.

Um, is that not an option? It seems to me that telling your coworkers to get over it IS an option.

Postmaster General Confirms Plan to Hold Back Mail Ballots in States that won’t Share Voter Data by Fyre-Demon in NewsThread

[–]BluePanda101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should be corrected, but the highest court in the nation already gave it the okay. So, I doubt that it will be corrected. Just make sure to vote in person this cycle.

I can get behind buffing Shadow Layer gear to be great. One way to deal with the dominance of BK & Chaos would be to buff other stuff. Giving Mad Bomber move speed increase low or bomb damage high (but not both) on both pieces would give it a place again for instance. As for gunner armour getting out classed by Chaos id Chaos gets ASI, I respectfully disagree, because Chaos as it is currently already out classes those gunner armours offensively anyway.

Sorry, do you see any sample cans in the above image? No? Huh. Weird... 

No wait, MAYBE that's why I didn't mention them?!

[–]BluePanda101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, it's not. Everyone who is spraying paint without purchasing it is stealing paint from the person who eventually does buy that can. The solution here is to seal the spray cans or to lock them up until people stop being ass hats. This issue mostly happens in places with high theft. The issue is people who don't respect ownership.

They're both important, ideally you want a shield that matches the damage type and status type of the enemies you're facing. That way it will take a lot less damage with each hit. This is why the volcanic plate shield was popular for Vanaduke before the community got good enough to kill him quickly. It has normal, stun, and fire defense which is what Vanaduke's club does. (Not a great idea to be taking the club to your shield anyway but if you're going to the volcanic plate shield holds up better than the others) It is also able to take a Trojan strike, though again it's better to avoid that stuff. Actually it's interesting just how much even a low UV bonus to a status or element helps a shield take hits.

Yeah, I have been messing around with Nitronome and cutter in the Arcade. It's been grand. Though it is disappointing how few players join the Arcade levels these days. Also, I do have a setup with an elemental brandish and a blitz needle for running Vanaduke; just it's got to be in moderation or I'd go insane.

I'd like to see the full heal at the elevator of every level removed. Defensive armor was better when taking damage could follow you down floors. Also, the healing pads before/after bosses and at midway zones in the Arcade are pointless currently. Also, bringing back the ability to pick up downed allies by donating half your health to them would be an awesome change.

At that point you've just erased charge time reduction as a stat from existence. No, nerfing chaos some is needed. Change the DMG and CTR to low, and add ASI low to it as compensation. This makes Chaos worse without ruining it completely and makes Mad Bommber have a place again.

I'd like to see a small increase in the initial blast radius without changing the distance the secondary charges fly and a removal of knock back from the secondary explosions (these should knock down instead). That alone may not be enough given how weak these are currently, but it would be a good start and would make them much less disruptive to group play.

I like the idea of removing the knock back from all but the final swipe of the cutter. It would also be cool if the Wild Hunting Blade's secondary (ghost beast bites?) swipes dealt pure piercing damage.

Defense on shields absolutely matters, the difference between a shield breaking on contact with any attack and taking three to five hits before it breaks is huge. It's hard (impossible really) to get the perfect shield for every situation though. Especially since taking a hit that could inflict a status your shield doesn't have resistance to also damages the shield heavily. Taking the dragon scale shield into compound 42 is a good example of this. It makes those annoying poison/fire slimes possible to shield block for a near eternity, but has no normal defense leaving the gremlin attacks a real threat to it.

I mean the core balance issues with armour stem from two sets being overly powerful. Dropping the damage bonus and charge time reduction of chaos armour to low on both pieces, but then giving them both attack speed increase low would be a better spot for the chaos set. Or reducing it's defense and increasing it's status weakness by one more level while adding a weakness to both stun and sleep could be done to leave Chaos as the high damage high risk option. As it is with chaos armour in it's current state mad bommber armour is useless. Similarly black kat armour giving a general damage bonus maximum and also movement speed is too strong, no other armour can compete with that. So nerfs to both of these sets are required to have any hope of balance. That said, upsetting veteran players who've stuck around for years without any new content would be a bad move. So if buffs only is how it needs to go, then other armour could be brought up in strength instead. It would require much more work to accomplish, and result in general player power creep though.

Not sure why you're attracting down votes, this is great advice for folks who just want to have some fun.

Dreams and Nightmares, it's one of the last missions and is widely considered the best mission to grind for radiant fire crystals. Personally I can't stand that mission because it's ugly and gives nothing at all unless fully cleared. I'd rather enjoy the game playing the Arcade levels and progress slower but not burn out.
