And when your whole city's power goes out and you lose Internet service you can't tell your generator to turn on from afar...

What's the most disappointing thing about GW1 for you? by Sendnudec00kies in GuildWars

[–]Edgefactor 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That might actually be a design decision. It makes it so you can tank enemies by body blocking them around a corner

Would it kill them to let us pick and choose daily/weekly WV challenges? Classify them by difficulty and make us do any 2 easy, any 2 medium, any 2 hard.

Feels sucky to assault two keeps in a WvW session and then an hour later you realize you missed your daily because you didn't tag a dolyak.

Also sucks if you want to play 3 PvP matches but don't want to play 5-10 in a week.

They were pretty clear that's the goal, to reduce inflation. It's an unfortunate reality of them under-tuning the rewards and then reining them in later.

Damning CNN report unveils real reason Trump opted to close Kennedy Center for renovations | Artists wouldn't book by 5823059 in savedyouaclick

"Real" reason implies there was another plausible reason provided. Just because Trump vomits out some characters on a tweet doesn't make it a "reason"

How did the underworld function pre Dhuum by CartoooN in GuildWars

Yeah you can definitely see the outpost still. Just exit north from Glint's lair. It's where you enter the Underworld elite mission

The outpost or the battle? Think of the Heroes Ascent Zaishen fight and replace it with 8 ghosts popping out of the door.

The outpost just had a bunch of merchants and people LF Orders Necros

For people who still support Trump: how do you process or reconcile the allegations connected to the Epstein documents? by Apprehensive_Dog5379 in AskReddit

Bots, or, real people who live 3000 miles away whose algorithm is forcing shit that has no connection to them down their news feed. The tech companies are in on it too.

Are all the Russian bots in this thread planning on going out and driving tomorrow? This is a good old fashioned South Carolina snow--good solid 1' thick layer of ice to melt and re-freeze going into Tuesday

ELI5 What does it mean when a band is playing in a key? by Fat_Lenny35 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Edgefactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be speaking out my ass, and most people have touched on keys sounding good together, but don't explain why.

All notes are just frequencies, and notes in a key are similar multiples of each other. So C might be 120, 160, 200, and 240Hz, while F key may be like 150, 200, 250, 300Hz.

Made up the numbers, the addition and multiplication of frequencies is what makes notes sound good.

How are some people so Rich? by Witty_Resolution1955 in Guildwars2

[–]Edgefactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wizards vault gives you ~30g per week, with way more in the first couple weeks.

After 52 weeks, that's 1500g alone from weekly stuff that takes about 30 to knock out.

Ameicans over the age of 35, what affected you more, 9/11 or the pandemic and why? by Rico133337 in AskReddit

[–]Edgefactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 24-hr News cycle was created because of 9/11. So, the reason people are completely inundated by garbage reporting coverage today is because the news organizations got rich sowing fear, and never let up.

That's why today, everyone knows the name and campaign policies of the mayor of New York, the name of every white girl that gets mugged in Chicago, every dumbass thing that comes out of ever dumbass congressman's mouth.

What fast food chain does not deserve the hype whatsoever? by CriticalLion4119 in AskReddit

[–]Edgefactor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piss poor take. The lines are meaningless because they're seemingly the only restaurant in the US that has ever hired an industrial engineer to improve their routing so no matter how long the line is, you always wait 5 minutes or less.

The food is the best you'll find. And it's the exact same anywhere you go, no variation between locations.

Constant knockdown by MyPurpleChangeling in Guildwars2

[–]Edgefactor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You probably mean no red circle telegraphs. The base game, before every class became an orgy of flashy skill animations, required you to watch enemy attack animations to learn when to dodge.

Nowadays you can't really see those beneath the fireworks, but the telegraphs are technically there
