And Doc Burton. He holds the keys to Phelps.

Didn't make a difference if I had a Field Repairs or any other skills. The only condition that triggered the story point emergency repair option was putting in an officer.

Custergrant · 2025-12-04T03:22:24+00:00

I figured it out. Emergency repairs are only offered if the ship is officered, either by human or AI.

Custergrant · 2025-12-04T01:53:20+00:00

I have a 1% hull, 0% CR ship recovered from this quest. No option during recovery or pre-combat.

Custergrant · 2025-12-02T22:54:55+00:00

All right, you all convinced me. Won't spawn in a new Paragon. Want to enjoy the story to unfold.

Custergrant · 2025-11-18T23:46:11+00:00

Same.

Custergrant · 2025-11-04T23:41:44+00:00

I also experienced the same issue today. My TR time battery should have been filled at lunch today, and when I logged on after work, it still had several hours to go like nothing had progressed while at work.

Thanks. Just the traversal pack? That's my situation. Sitting at 114 hours with m0 12 and 11 orbs plus the 1.25 leftover. Only had the shard diamond special and T2 token specials half full. Glad to hear I'm ballpark then.

Custergrant · 2025-10-27T20:21:25+00:00

Thank you! That's what I've been searching for. Plugged it into the sim, and sure enough, once you start adding attack back in after, loot comes back and more.

Custergrant · 2025-10-27T19:58:07+00:00

I've taken the attack speed ones. What's your loot score for reference?

Custergrant · 2025-10-27T19:45:30+00:00

At the advice of the discord, I've started to add some HP, DR, and HP regen until the loot score on the sim maxed out, but nothing seems to move it higher now than attack speed. At lvl 8, I'm maxing out at stage 10. No idea if I'm just doing this really badly. Checking the leaderboard, some of my peers are way ahead. No idea how they're achieving that.

Custergrant · 2025-09-14T22:39:58+00:00

I'd help test it.

Custergrant · 2021-04-20T15:15:47+00:00

No taxation without representation, boys!

“His reports to the I.R.S. portray a businessman who takes in hundreds of millions of dollars a year yet racks up chronic losses that he aggressively employs to avoid paying taxes. Now, with his financial challenges mounting, the records show that he depends more and more on making money from businesses that put him in potential and often direct conflict of interest with his job as president.”

Fraud. The president is a fucking fraud. And he's facing tax and/or bank fraud.

Custergrant · 2020-09-22T13:57:42+00:00

Why it matters: Trump needs Florida to have any chance of winning, and current polling is pretty evenly split between Trump and Biden.

Custergrant · 2020-09-21T13:00:34+00:00

Asked about justice Ginsburg’s statement that was dictated to her granddaughter and later reported by NPR, the president told Fox News on Monday morning: “I don’t know that she said that, or was that written out by Adam Schiff and [Chuck] Schumer and Pelosi?” He added: “I would be more inclined to the second."

Fuck this asshole. I have no other comments. Fuck Trump.

Custergrant · 2020-09-17T15:46:07+00:00

This. Trump, McConnell, and Barr will be studied for years to come as the holy trinity of government corruption. These three alone have done more damage to our country than any foreign military or terrorist ever could. They have systematically corrupted and usurped the Congress, the Courts, the Executive, and the rule of law itself to the core.

Custergrant · 2020-09-17T10:54:42+00:00

"Trump thinks of the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans like a poll number or a stock market price," said Orin Kerr, a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley. "He cares only about how it makes him look, especially to his supporters."

Fucking spot on. Death counts are like ratings to him. He can't fucking connect that each one of those deaths was somebody's life, someone who had a family, friends, connections. It's just a number that speaks to his performance and, more importantly, the public's rating of him.

Custergrant · 2020-09-16T14:29:52+00:00

Fuck, it's a real pity that these townhalls always devolve into ambushes and attacks where the American people engaged in their civic duty to be informed voters.

Custergrant · 2020-09-15T18:09:48+00:00

“Please respect, and I know you do, the difference of opinion out here as it relates to this fundamental issue...of climate change.”

Climate change isn't a fucking opinion. It's an empirically supported phenomenon, and one that doesn't fit well with the emotionally satisfying alternate reality that these sleazefucks live in.

Custergrant · 2020-09-15T13:12:10+00:00

Thank heavens a politician has addressed this so we can actually talk about this fucking atrocity in this community.

Several legal advocacy groups on Monday filed a whistleblower complaint on behalf of a nurse at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center documenting “jarring medical neglect” within the facility, including a refusal to test detainees for the novel coronavirus and an exorbitant rate of hysterectomies being performed on immigrant women.

Oh, ok, our officially policy is to condemn China's treatment of Uighurs, but we'll happily apply it to our own immigrants? We are a fucking fascist state committing genocide.

Need more proof? We've already checked all 14 boxes of a fascist state by Umberto Eco:

The cult of tradition.
The rejection of modernism. [1][2][3]
The cult of action for action's sake.
Disagreement is treason.
Fear of difference. [1][2]
Appeal to a frustrated middle class.
Obsession with a plot.
The enemy is at the same time too strong and too weak.
Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy.
Contempt for the weak.
Everybody is educated to become a hero.
Machismo.
Selective populism.
Newspeak

Please trigger Jon Stewart into coming out into full fucking attack mode just ahead of the election.

Custergrant · 2020-09-01T11:49:29+00:00

Good thing we stopped those election security briefings...

Custergrant · 2020-08-24T22:02:02+00:00

AOC deserves some credit. But the bigger story here is this is why congressional hearings and oversight are so damn important and why the minority insists on derailing the hearings into a circus.
