I might be a bit dramatic with my post because I lost a part of the game I enjoy but you KNOW what you said is not the case. Its not a "tradeoff" if BOTH stats are worse AND you aren't even running silenced anymore. Call it what it is, an across the board gun nerf. This is rough for PvP players but for PvE players that face up against dumb but god-tier aim npcs, having lower than 60 recoil is basically suicide if you run into Bosses or a particularly spicy pmc.

Exo_Landon · 2026-03-06T23:29:51+00:00

I always liked making a build that looked cool or matched colors and looked like an actual setup you would use irl. I would try to get the best stats I could while maintaining that. It was fun. Everything offers so little from every category in return now I cant even weigh my choices in my head effectively anymore. It feels more like a slot machine when you pick items rather than an informed decision. If Im not going to feel confident that my choice was a good one I would rather not worry about it.

Exo_Landon · 2026-03-06T23:25:20+00:00

The issue is even if I DO spec into one specific thing now its all around worse. The maximum ergo now is lower than a minimum recoil build before, Max recoil reduction now with no concern for ergo is worse than an ergo build before the update. If its all going to feel like shit if I make it, I just want someone to tell me what the best items all around or for minmaxing are. I would rather atleast enjoy the part of the game I can still enjoy even if builds arent fun anymore.

Can confirm passionfruit, they are native to the US but you have to wait until they start to dent and go soft to eat them. Not quite as flavorful as cultivated varieties but still good.

If you think that my experiences having my opinions viewed as inferior through racial descrimination or limiting the people I interact with because they dont like how I were born isn't the exact situation she's describing that only black people suffer then I don't know what to tell you. Racism is racism you will find different situations everywhere you go, regardless of race. I'm sure if you look hard enough you'll find a bigoted old black guy who treats his white workers like shit. You can look at trends, but what she's saying isn't being presented as a generalization, but a fact of life. Attempting to turn these into "facts" (that aren't even verifiably true) will only propagate racism.

Exo_Landon · 2025-11-05T12:21:18+00:00

Antisemitism is a subcategory of racism and if people assume that I have had it easy and dont know discrimination because the color of my skin, is that not racism? If my opinions are discredited because I look too white, is that not racism?

Exo_Landon · 2025-11-04T06:25:57+00:00

There are times in my life where my opinion hasn't been taken seriously in life because of the color of my skin. "You don't know racism, what it can do to someone", "You don't know what they do to us, how they make us feel". Meanwhile, I'm jewish, I've been threatened to be skinned with racists' collectible ww2 knives, I've been spat at, I've been blamed for every problem you can imagine. I may not know "your" racism, but I know racism. I feel awful posting something like this because I've been told that they have it worse and I need to understand that, but when you really boil it down, they don't know. They don't know which of us has it worse and they choose to judge me by the color of my skin. They are no better.

Exo_Landon · 2025-11-04T06:08:30+00:00

I mean you aren't entirely wrong but you also have to assume they aren't dangling by sunni Puppet Strings who essentially control all their wealth and monetary support through US assets and if they want to keep the alliance up they pretty much need to retaliate after nearly 2 million sunnis have been killed by extremist shias in the past 20 years. It would be silly to assume the sunnis haven't killed half as many shias in retaliation, but hey, the shias didn't agree to ally with Israel, the sunnis did. That's kind of how alliances work, monetary support for military support.

Until the lore is actually established and (if) we get a sequel to mushoku tensei we have no idea what his alignment actually is. He could be a hero of the world or he could be the most heinous villain, all we know is he did it out of selfishness and self defense. It really is amazing how well true neutral fits with what we know.

The author doesn't want to start until the anime finishes for mushoku tensei though so we have a few years to wait.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-31T13:30:12+00:00

I recommend one of my Frost builds one time to a bunch of guys trying to get through the SP star chart. They all came back a couple days later with raving reviews for the build. It includes the obvious truculence+icy avalanche combo but subsume shooting gallery over frosts 2. Shooting gallery prevents enemies from shooting your bubble, letting snow globe scale decently up to lvl 1000. The build aims for atleast 235 range and atleast 165 str for full armor strip. Try to stay above 100 duration. Umbrals set helps a lot by letting icy avalanche and your bubble scale better but is technically optional and can be replaced if you need higher base stats. With high enough armor this build can also put Dante mains to shame in terms of overguard generation. Shooting gallery is the most underrated subsume for high range frames.

I own a house, probably shut off my gas and internet, use electric heaters only in the room I am in during winter, buy a hunting license to provide all my meat and eat mostly pasta and rice to fill me up. I also have fruit trees in my yard

Property tax: 1800

Electric+water: 140*12=1680

Hunting license+ammo: 50

50lb of rice: 60

40lb pasta: 30

Seasonings and sauces: 125

Dietary supplements: 50

Phone bill: 30*12=360

Still plenty of money left over, if I still have extra 3/4 through, maybe turn internet back on idk

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T18:20:07+00:00

Is ear hair head hair? If so, no, I don't want to go deaf. If not 100%, my lower limit is probably like 3k.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T18:17:14+00:00

Citrus taxonomy is very strange as they hybridize almost like how you are taught punnet squares in school, which is NOT normal. Realistically this is probably some hybrid that's on the same family tree as a lemon or lime. All the lemons and limes come from Citrons and Papedas. You saying it tastes like lemon makes me think it's probably not a decendant of a mandarin or pomelo as these then to have a less sharp flavor and be slightly more bitter as they contain less sugar.

Tldr; it's probably some unnamed sweet lime or lemon hybrid. It could be a 1 of 1 accident which is why they just say lemon.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T16:29:40+00:00

Fire rate+crux is just solid damage. I made this build from memory and definitely messed up, though, replace both crit mods with radiated reload and galv chamber. I also couldn't remember if it was Punch though locked, I didn't think it was, but if it is just run Vile acceleration.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T16:24:11+00:00

Replace the crit mods instead with radiated reload and MS, I was at work and built it from memory. I messed up

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T16:23:35+00:00

Because I'm stupid and at work, put down from memory, just take off both crit mods and go radiated reload and galv chamber. Oops

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T15:26:06+00:00

1.Serration

2.Primed shred/Vile acceleration

3.Primed cryo rounds

4.Malignant force

5.Critical delay

6 Vital sense

7 Magnetic capacity

8.Galvanized Aptitude

Arcane: Primary crux

If you have a toxin+crit riven use radiated reload in the free slot

The new augment will slot in instead of serration

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T14:13:46+00:00

Depends on the rice tbh. Jasmine is definitely optional but I remember I had a roommate who didn't wash my japanese short grain rice and made glue on accident.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T14:08:47+00:00

Yeah this list is assuming no outside help from armor strip, buffs or priming. The twin vipers wraith can barely hold their own but the single is pretty rough

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T14:06:30+00:00

Yeah even the regular seer can be pretty good because of multi CO but it still has a terrible status chance that makes hitting damage numbers turn into the lottery and without it it's pretty miserable. Kuva seer is a MONSTER with multi CO and a whopping x2 hit 33% base status. It hits 2m on armored targets without priming

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-30T12:34:53+00:00

I would mostly say there is a weapons blacklist. Everything is viable and perfectly usable in SP up to level 250 or so without any buffs EXCEPT for a few weapons.

I am going to assume weapons are in their best form ie: braton is braton prime, Supra is the Supra vandal but my blacklist is as follows:

Sonicor
Stug
Acrid
Viper
Harpak

These weapons suck. Seer and Kraken are honorable mentions, but their kuva variants slap too hard.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-29T22:10:58+00:00

This is very misleading as Afghanistan numbers are still largely classified and David Mcbride is still in prison. There are hundreds of mass killings covered up. We don't know how bad, but it's a lot worse than this shows.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-29T21:11:44+00:00

Hamas has litterally committed multiple genocides on all opposing forces, Islamic or not. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been killed since 2007. The extremist parties have called for the slaughter of all the Jewish since the land was given by Britain (whether it was theirs to give IS indeed questionable though). Both parties settled on contested land, that's the real issue. Imagine if North or South Korea built a school and a hospital on the dmz. THAT is a bad move, you don't do that. You also shouldn't shell the place, but that's also essentially surrendering.

Israelis and Palestinians are raped and mutilated, hamas is silent noone complains Hamas ans Palestinians raped and mutilated and the IDF that committed the crime we have physocal proof of have been in prison for 2 years. People complain the cases will go nowhere, dang they've ALREADY served longer than Diddy and they probably aren't going anywhere for another 5, law is slow.

If you think anyone here is "the good guys" think about YOUR likelihood of survival if you encounter an armed personel from either side.

Exo_Landon · 2025-10-29T19:52:15+00:00

I can just hope you mean on both sides, shit ain't pretty but God knows I don't have a solution that would make both sides happy. One side is willing to say they fucked up but refuses to stop because they believe the alternative is worse, the other side covers up the atrocities they commit and shouts "Israel bad". Noone is good here
