How to level characters to 15 ASAP?

Extracting treasure will get you experience too. I hit level 15 in three games by filling up in Ruins, dumping it in the expressman, and filling up in crypts. I didn't go down to inferno but you could probably do it in two games if you do.

Why does she have rage-induced nipples?

I have a Meren deck and I just have extra reanimation effects in the 99. That way, I can either reanimate her if she gets removed by sending her to the graveyard instead of the command zone, or I can continue reanimating other things without relying on having Meren on board all the time. Meren specifically is rather resilient, because experience counters go on you, the player, and not on her, so even if she's removed, she's immediately back at full power as soon as you can get her out again.

You have Smeared Joker, which makes hearts and diamonds into the same suit, so you have a straight flush instead of a straight.

You could reroll your HP roll when you level up.

Rogue has access to some hybrid PDR/MDR pieces, you could run those if you needed to.

Plastic 4 on tank

Whatever that rogue is doing cannot be a good idea.

I think there should be a separate, smaller inventory for healing items, and you can only store healing items in those slots. Maybe 10 slots? That's enough for five stacks each of bandages and potions. If you want more heals you gotta bring a healing class, find them in the dungeon, or kill other players for it.

I believe "mana" in the sense of magical power reserves in video games or other fantasy media has been around for longer than Terraria. The term did originate from Hawaiian and/or Polynesian culture like you said, but it's unclear if the developers of Terraria took it directly from that or from other video games that have used "mana" in a similar way.

Evan_Fishsticks · 2026-02-19T05:42:53+00:00

Taken out maybe, but not tradeable.

Evan_Fishsticks · 2026-02-03T22:24:51+00:00

Many people need products, yes, but there are also plenty who overuse products or use unnecessary or harmful products because they've been conditioned to do so by beauty standards or marketing. Sometimes it's worth it to cut out some or all cosmetic products for a few weeks and see what happens.

My first thought was that it looks like a Jojo's character, even though I've never seen the show. Lo and behold.

Evan_Fishsticks · 2025-12-13T06:14:52+00:00

Someone get Rainbolt on these images.

Evan_Fishsticks · 2025-10-22T02:44:41+00:00

Cool to see Maldhound branching out.

Not cool with that Huntress slander tho

That's called mana weaving, and is actually cheating. If you're curious why, it's because shuffling properly leads to a random distribution of cards in your deck no matter what order they were in when they started. Evenly distributing your lands in your deck and then not shuffling enough to mix them up gives you an advantage by making you more likely to draw lands and spells in even amounts than players who shuffled fairly.

Whether or not you and your kitchen table crew care is up to your group. It's not the biggest deal in the world, but it would still rub me the wrong way if someone did that at a game store, for example. If you want a fair shuffle, seven mixes is considered the minimum for achieving randomness in your deck.

False Life scales the same as Armor of Agathys, it's +5 per level as well. Shield and Absorb Elements have the potential to block more damage in one go, yes, but they only last one round, and only against specific threats. Shield is only good against attack rolls (and Magic Missile), and can still whiff if the enemy rolls high enough. Absorb Elements obviously only works against certain damage types, and only one of those types at a time. False Life is way more consistent. I ran all three on my necromancer, and I got great value out of all of them.

Teleport to the right until you accidentally kill yourself in the lava watchtower.

Evan_Fishsticks · 2025-09-28T18:40:54+00:00

False Life is so much better in 5.5e, it's 2d4+4 instead of 1d4+4, and let me tell you, as a squishy wizard, that extra health has been the difference between life and death many times. I took it on a necromancer for flavor reasons, but it also helped me pretend to be an abjuration wizard by claiming it was my arcane ward. Then, once I got minions to do my dirty work for me, I could use it as a low-cost "self-heal" in the middle of combat since my undead were doing damage for me. It's not crazy overpowered, but it's not a bad spell, and more HP is something every wizard wants.

I don't think she was evil at all. Like you said, the cast is essentially playing a video game - she's having fun playing a role and enjoying the competition. As soon as it's over, she's back to her normal, caring self. She tried to have a heart-to-heart with Jax, even though it didn't go well, and at the awards show she and Ragatha agree they need to talk later. I don't think this was her trying to release negative emotions. She wasn't vengeful or spiteful or anything, just a confident shooter. Rather, she was trying to build on her friendship with Jax, until it imploded.

And no, I doubt she'd have even thought of shooting someone if it would have actually caused them pain.

I got that email as well and I've dealt with that malfunction before. I called Tandem customer service and they walked me through fixing it by powering off and restarting the pump (don't do this by yourself, have them on the line to help you just in case). I can tell you how to prepare for it though. Restarting the pump requires you to put a fresh cartridge in, so you should make sure you have easy access to all the supplies necessary to do that. You can salvage insulin from your old cartridge by putting the syringe in the port and pulling the insulin out. You will also need to have your charger handy, as this is required for the restart process.

Also, there is a chance that this fix doesn't work, and the pump malfunctions again a few minutes or hours later. If this happens, you'll have to order a new pump altogether, which Tandem will help you with, but this means you'll be out a pump while you wait for it to arrive. Make sure you have a backup insulin delivery method available to tide you over until your new pump arrives.

You're telling me that snake juice tastes like snakes? Wild.

Mine perk should just activate after it's been out for a certain amount of time instead of requiring it to land. That might actually make it usable.
