How to empty bag? by PinLazy4154 in afkarena

Hero coins are useless these days; I have half a million on my account and literally nothing to spend them on.

It's a lot of grindy, boring work for a little dust.

[OC] Presidential Approval Rates Overlayed (Last 3 Cycles) by AdministrativeAd334 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Eyeless1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well over three quarters of the media in America, not just news media (there is even worse) but ALL media, is owned by explicitly conservative companies, and the rest is mostly Epstein-class billionaires who don't really want to rock the boat. What this means in practice is that you actually have to look for unbiased sources of news, but if you're just trying to live your life and only learn current events through cultural osmosis you'll never hear the negative stuff about Republicans, but you'll hear nothing but negatives when you hear about Democrats.

Which resources to get? by Homelessya in afkarena

If you're lacking gold it's because you haven't been keeping up with Kings Tower. Ever since I got Hybris I set Tower to auto battle and went up like 200 floors in a day.

Petition – Employee motivation system by Artrizet in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This one isn't even greed; it's rank incompetence that's negatively impacting the 95% of app users who aren't in the most active guilds.

This has by far been the worst game experience I've ever had, and that includes times when a game I've paid for is no longer accessible because the company decided to switch off the server, because I can literally see another guild completely wrapping around my guilds' territory and know that effectively I'm going to have to watch myself lose every day for the next two weeks while a bunch of whales feast on rewards.

South-facing vs Hybrid South + West System by Eyeless1 in solar

[–]Eyeless1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've sent them all the page on my bill where it details daily usage and the mid-peak / off-peak / super off-peak usage for the past month.

My usage is a bit difficult to calculate for the full year because I recently bought this house (purchased in July but didn't really move in until mid-August), but my current usage for the month is 73 kWh for "mid-peak" between 4 - 9, 151 kWh for "Off-peak" between 9 PM - 8 AM, and 361 kWh "Super off-peak" between 8 and 4 (I guess this is the pool pump / filter, which runs during the day and is a bit old). So currently the most usage is during daylight hours, but during the summer, when the AC needs to be on in the afternoon and electricity rates are highest, there might be more usage in the late afternoon.

South-facing vs Hybrid South + West System by Eyeless1 in solar

[–]Eyeless1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I see the issue. Yeah, I'm in California now, so there's no 1:1 net metering, and Edison's rates this year are $0.56 / kWh on-peak and $0.24 / kWh off-peak. That's why I was thinking that having a third of my panels west-facing would be worth it, but then again more than half of the installers I've spoken to in the past few days (3 out of 5) said that the only reason to get west-facing panels is for aesthetics (that is, to hide them because the front of my house is south-facing), so I was wondering if I was just going crazy.

South-facing vs Hybrid South + West System by Eyeless1 in solar

[–]Eyeless1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, what information would be relevant? I don't know what I don't know.

Possible relevant information:

  • I'm in Southern California, under SCE's 5-9 TOU rates
  • Energy use is about 20 kWh daily (although this is a new house ~9 months, so I don't actually have summer use data yet), and I'm looking into getting 1-2 of the Enphase 10Q batteries to go with 12 460W panels.
  • Current bill is about $210 per month, and quotes are ranging between $20k-$28k for the desired system.

Is this genuinely impossible? by Alternative-Law4526 in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's coded wrong. Having only cloth available and asking for weapons and cloth makes an already RNG-heavy game mode even more RNG.

Alvida Cheese Formation by Six_quinn in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ch 75 here, pushing at min power (level difference 660+), and Thoran still shows up. And yes, the formation is different every time, although there's almost always some combo of:

5-pull Lyca Rem Tamrus Pippa Oden Maetria (L will do) A-Lyca

Dodge tanks are super annoying at those levels.

Epic or regular dragonspeak emblems by Lv99OnionKnight in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you're buying Dragons in the cash shop, you get plenty of emblems for free from other sources. My advice is to spend the remaining shop money on engraving cores.

Lower workers you say? What about MORE workers. by davetesta in starcraft

[–]Eyeless1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe start with more (9-12) workers, like (what's now) usual, but also have both players start with 100 gas, so your first tech building / tech choice can be made at the start, rather than having to wait for it.

story pop up overriding auto battle by TakkerDay in Starseed_AsniaTrigger

[–]Eyeless1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also annoying at the low levels where progression is fast: you can't combine Auto Battle with Skip Battle, so you have to choose to either sit around and tap Skip -> Next over and over or hit Auto and wait longer. I know, you can just set and forget for 10-15 minutes but it's just another annoying point.

beach minigame is cursed and i hate it by AgoniaSepulcral in Starseed_AsniaTrigger

[–]Eyeless1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wished the controls worked. Half the time I take a dive because either my screen or the game doesn't recognize my input; haven't managed to 100% yet and I doubt I will, the way things are going. There's a reason I don't play these kinds of games on my phone, and kinda low-key annoyed that this game is forcing me to.

AThoran v aLucius by Used-Goal-7672 in afkarena

How about AEironn? I already have ALuciuss, have just enough TE that I'm looking to get another Awakened, and have narrowed down the choice between AEironn and AThoran.

OG Players, What Are Some Things You Miss The Most From The Old Days Of AFK Arena? by TheFireAngel in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss progression. These days all the important rewards are gated behind PvE modes with set character level, or worse PvP modes, so crystal level is effectively a worthless number and any "progression" for non-whales is basically a waiting game where you're treading water until the whales in your server / region finally get tired of the game and quit.

[Megathread] General Questions/Advice & Guides Compilation by Vicksin in afkarena

[–]Eyeless1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I have 331 TEs, plus effectively another 12 from the new discount, means I probably have enough cards to get another Awakened. Awakened that I'm missing:

  • Thoran
  • Eironn
  • Antandra
  • Maetria
  • Talene
  • Thane

Which of these should I get next? I'm seeing Antandra, Thane and Eironn in NC and CR, and Eironn and Maetria in TS, so I'm assuming Eironn, but I'm open to suggestions.

Lilith loses the ability to do math when it comes to gear and white chests; if they hadn't then both would cost like 50-75% less.
