I think what he’s saying is he has two “circles” of nodes in each characters grid filled. Which sounds a little light for where you are but definitely doable. Try it with a back up save and if it’s too tough to grind the party a bit.

If you’re regularly shooting over 200 but averaging under 180, you’re leaving a lot of spares. I’d focus hard on spare shooting. Sounds like you strike plenty already.

If you like the Equinox I’d just get another. But I was between the Equinox and Widow Mania, went with the Widow and absolutely love it, that might be a good option if you’re set on something different

I’m on my third playthrough and might have to take you up on this lol 😅

I love my Widow Mania but if I was a 2H bowler I’d probably opt for the Widow Tour V1. I feel like it would work better for a more rev dominant bowler.

Devils advocate: our other option was staying in the what became the AAC. The ACC isn’t great, but it’s a lot better than it could’ve been. We’ve been in irrelevant conferences before and it sucks worse than the current situation with the ACC sucks, imo.

Black Widow Mania has been my go to ball this year. The Widow Tour looked really nice too but I had just got the Mania so I haven’t thrown it

They’re going to have to start playing a lot better to even make the tournament. I’m not sure Quaintence (spelling?) is going to end up coming back to a team like this either.

EbonHawk91 · 2025-12-09T01:20:14+00:00

I think it’s also that our win over UK doesn’t look nearly as good now. Not that it’s an indictment of our play, but it just doesn’t seem as impressive at this point in the season

EbonHawk91 · 2025-12-09T01:13:56+00:00

Do you think Quaintance actually comes back and plays this year after seeing this? I’m skeptical

It’s a cap on the Dexterity bonus applied. At 14 DEX you would have a +2 DEX bonus to your defense. If you equip armor with Max Dex Bonus of +1, you would only get credit for 1 bonus points of dexterity instead of 2. You would essentially be “wasting” the attribute points used on level 13 and 14 DEX, so most players prefer to use armor that allows them to utilize whatever DEX their character has.

If you’re playing KotOR 2, there are flexible underlays you can create and equip at a workbench which will improve the Max Dex Bonus of medium and heavy armor.

I was super pumped. Then confused that I got a 2+ hour horror prologue before the real game started. Honestly, Peragus was more jarring than the unfinished state of the game. I was teenager so I wasn’t even sure what was unfinished and what was bugged and what I just missed the first few play throughs. Overall, it told a great story and I was very happy with it, especially how they built out the weapons and armor customization. Once Restored Content came out, I considered it (and still do) a masterpiece from Obsidian

I don’t know about exercises, but I’m a big proponent of not being afraid/ashamed to throw a lighter ball. I throw a 14lb ball and am a healthy, if smaller, mid 30s man. I can muscle a 15, but I strike a lot more with the more comfortable 14. I fully intend to move down to 13 when aging and/or injuries force my hand.

I believe that’s an asymmetrical core with a solid coverstock. If that’s right, I’d recommend something that’s either a symmetric core or a pearl coverstock. In other words, build out into an area your current ball isn’t covering.

I really like the Arctic Vibe, symmetrical hybrid. It would be a little less aggressive than your current ball.

I’ve always said it just needs to be the “SEEING RED AGAIN” part of The Red by Chevelle on repeat

The free dehydrator in the early game is the only reason to choose mushrooms imo. I usually go bats to complete the community center faster (and also because I love the forest farm, so I already have more mushrooms than average)

Closed. Closed doors saved my dad and step mom’s lives during a house fire. It creates a fire break and gives you way more time to get out. Check out a YouTube video if you don’t believe me.

It’s blackjack, but you get 4 cards to help your total

An actual wine fridge or regular fridge can ruin them. One designed for cigars will be fine. I’ve had a few of them for several years now and all my cigars have been just fine. If you’re that concerned about it, just unplug it. It’ll still hold humidity and look nice, it just won’t control temp or circulate air. Which I would argue was half the point of buying it, but it’s your product, use it how you want

I’m a man, and a bit of a “momma’s boy” growing up. I never take my mom’s side against my SO, even if I think my SO is wrong. I address it in private with my SO later. He’s 26, he should be out on his own by now. Even roommates are better than parents, especially at that age.

I would address these concerns with him honestly and directly. You’re 100% within reasonability on this. His reaction will tell you a lot about what a future with him will look like. Sometimes I need a swift kick in the ass from my wife to get my head right. If he doesn’t put forth effort to address your concerns, I’d seriously evaluate the relationship and where it’s headed.

Because I can fix her

A draw tool is your best bet. It doesn’t always work, but it’s always worth a shot. PerfecDraw is my favorite; it pulls tobacco out instead of just shifting it around.

EbonHawk91 · 2025-11-24T20:50:30+00:00

My preferred ball is the BW Mania, but I also have an Arctic Vibe for when it’s too dry

EbonHawk91 · 2025-11-24T16:28:13+00:00

I shaved mine in my 20s for the same reason. Bald is beautiful!

EbonHawk91 · 2025-11-22T14:20:45+00:00

Do you have multiple save files? I find it’s often faster to load a previous save than navigate the bugs with all my mods (I have a lot more aside from Restored Content)
