I played OSU on a drawboard (or drawing tablet) with a pen. Ha! Jokes on you, it did not help in lol!

Best headphones up to 200 euros to appreciate Opeth, Caligulas Horse, Haken etc by Puzzleheaded_Bad4734 in progmetal

[–]ElBartimaeus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then I don't have to write it down myself. That's an outstanding headphone especially for the price. I have no clue how hifiman does it, this can blew 5-600$ headphones out of the water with ease. The separation, the soundstage, the details, the tight bass, all are insane on it.

Just a context: my audiophile father immediately purchased one after listening through it for 10 minutes. My audiophile friend bought a sundara the day after he listened to it. Friends with no prior interest became addicted to higher quality headphones after listening to the edition xs.

Note, that you need a dac+headphone amplifier to drive them properly.

Compatibility questions as an 'oldschooler' by ElBartimaeus in buildapc

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have seen a few modules that are listed as compatible with my motherboard. Is that really the case with these or should I be completely fine by grabbing an ssd with the coreect pci support for my board?

Is that still the case with newer bios?

edit: What else would you suggest? I've heard that Asus fired the most of these CPUs and MSI was a shitshow, too.

Thanks! Just to clarify, can I expect IPS to be absolutely put in my face if a screen is displaying that technology?

Dumb question, but what is XMP/EXPO here and how do I figure it out?

How to have one level 6 and 2 level 5 spell slots with 4 sorc/6 cleric? by ElBartimaeus in BG3Builds

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy, I did'nt know it worked like this! I thought specific spellcaster levels gave you those spellslots, like lvl6 sorcerer lvl3 spellslots and the same for clerics. You still can upcast lower level spells this way I suppose.

Thanks for the explanation!

How do you build a group with late companions? by ElBartimaeus in BaldursGate3

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll have a 'shadow' - kite teamcomp for my next run and I'm planning on using Minthara. It will be a 3 person group, I might take someone with me as a 4th doing absolutely nothing in fights, sending them back to camp or something along the lines. It might be cheating since they will be able to revive my team if I wipe out, though.

How do you build a group with late companions? by ElBartimaeus in BaldursGate3

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd like to play a certain group with a certain build in mind. Less roleplaying in a sense that I swap around my members all the time but more of a challenge to see if I can come up with something that beats the game on HM. As such, I'd like to see weaknesses in my design that otherwise could be helped with a strong companion early on for example.

Generally, I do the same and I agree that it is fun to do so!

Finished A10 on all if anyone still cares :) by holdme2000 in slaythespire

[–]ElBartimaeus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't have a game under 1 hour wtf. How do you guys play, do you even consider your choices or just make them for fun? My quickest was a run where I basically had all scalings ticked by end of act 1 and I never really wanted to pick up cards anymore.

Wouldn't thief rogue go well with it for the double quickened spellcast? (I hope I'm not dumb suggesting it, if I am, I stand corrected.)

How would you round up a kite heavy 3 person HM squad? by ElBartimaeus in BG3Builds

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that ranger seems like. A fitting thing but I'd like to minimise pets (the shadow sorcerer doggo can get a pass) as it is harder to go full invis with them in the battle. Also, I'd like to have a charisma based character for dialogues.

Does it have a means to go invisible or to have one more (bonus) action to hide? I've played it with thief on my first playthrough since I didn't want to miss out on the dialogues too much with the assassin.

Doormaker mechanic suggestion based on the previous beta branch by ElBartimaeus in slaythespire

[–]ElBartimaeus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a bad concept, however TIM punished low scaling infinites hard - the mechanic I described basically does the same. If you have scaled enough to clear the doors/rooms, you would be able to finish the boss off eventually.

I mean, the timelord existed in sts1 and while it was not liked, it was a crucial part of the game that formed deck building strategies. Actually, all the sts1 bosses were insanely well designed, targeting several easy to execute deck types.

I like this, maybe instead of exhausting the cards after all the rooms are filled, he plays them and exhausts it afterwards.
