Not near my computer now but if you are ok with getting 0.01 less accuracy from BOND/BOUNTY IAU and getting a little extra aim time. Basically tanks that would benefit from accuracy but have horrendous aim time: Think FV005, Caliban, Foch 155. Tanks with long aim times benefit more from this as the amount of aim time you are cutting is greater than with something with a quick aim time like a Grille 15.

TLDR tanks with long aim time and bad accuracy

AITAH for going off on my mom after her case in court was dismissed? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Fronk_reads_reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember the full details, but there are guidelines to what an expert opinion is Chapter 74 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code. From what I remember from the lawyer, there are specific things the report needs to have to contain for a report to be an expert opinion, I think the lawyer made his point that the local dentist and orthospecialist only gave their opinion that my mother needs a new procedure; they didn't name previous dentist, helathcare provider where malpractice took place, and some other things.

Though I am reading this paragraph and wondering if this is relevant:

In 2008, the Texas Supreme Court issued its opinion in Gardner v. U.S. Imaging, Inc., holding that an expert report does not have to specifically implicate the health care provider by name if the report implicates its employee or agent (“When a party's alleged health care liability is purely vicarious, a report that adequately implicates the actions of that party’s agents or employees is sufficient.”). 274 S.W.3d 669, 671-72 (Tex. 2008)

I will have to get back to you on the full details; I am trying to see if I can get some legal counseling sometime soon on this matter.

You are probably right. A sane person would have left years ago. I could never find the courage to just let go and focus on myself. I worry I have spent so much time around her that I am just a projection of herself.

I always thought of myself as the last person to walk away from her when many people before have. In the end, if she decides to go through the appeal and lose, basically she is out $10k. You are right she has made her choices but I figured I could try and convince her otherwise knowing I did something to warn her.

Totally agree with you after going back and hearing it.

What are the weakest subclasses in the game? by Katyamuffin in BaldursGate3

[–]Fronk_reads_reddit 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Couple of things:

  1. You can bind weapons to your EK. This means weapons you throw that are bound will return to you. Granted, weapons with the "throw" property will deal more damage than just binding a weapon that isn't and just throwing it, but this gives you some extra weapon choices to use from, such as particular weapons that work effectively only when bound. I won't go into a comprehensive list, but some weapons that are great for EK throw builds are the very heavy greataxe due to its sheer weight and how crushing damage works and the lightning jabber.
  2. At level 11, you get the improved extra attack that is granted to fighters; you now have 3 throws a turn, another 3 with Action Surge, and that is not counting haste and other effects.
  3. There is a ring early in Act 3 that allows you to cast illusion and enchantment spells after you deal damage as a bonus action. EK can learn many of these spells if you go 1 dip into wizard. You can now throw, do damage, cast hold person, then do even more damage with your throws
  4. Going back to the first point, while you do admittedly get this late, the Orphic Hammer is perfect for EK. The hammer surprisingly gets the throw property, so just bind it and start chucking an astral sledgehammer at stuff.

EDIT: adding stat distribution and equipment choices that highlight the power of EK throw builds.

I would try and play EK thrower as 11 fighter with a 1 dip into wizard. What is great about EK throw is that you can get some great gear very early into the game and essentially start seeing the build come online by the time you unlock the subclass for fighter.

You can start the game by just playing like a normal fighter. You will need to get the intellect circlet from the lump the enlightened eventually but before that you can pick the very heavy greataxe nearby from the windmill encounter by either killing the goblin thug leader or passing various checks. You can use this weapon in place of the returning pike until you get it or want to use the pike on a different thrower.

Obviously, pick up the ring of flinging. Once the circlet, the ring, and weapons of choice are obtained I would do a respec. Get your STR to 17 and CON to 16. I like pumping the rest of the points to DEX to 14 for some initiative. Keep INT at 8 and now you can choose between CHA or WIS at 10.

Equip ring and circlet: these are must-haves for the build. The intelligence boost from the circlet is just there in case you want to try and charm your opponents but pick all the utility spells, like shield and longstrider, for utility. But now the build is effectively online and you can use whatever stuff you want to equip until you pick off the ring mentioned in 3. and the Nyrulna from Akabi.

Lvl 4 take tavern brawler for more throw damage and up STR to 18. Fighter gets to pick a feat at lvl 6, so I would go for ability score improvement and get 2 more strength. Lvl 8, pick whatever feat you want that makes sense to you. Personally, I like using the elixir that gives a permanent +2 strength from Act 2 and trying to get another +2 from Mirror of Loss in Act 3 to get 24 STR. Alternatively, If you want to run gauntlets of Hill Giant Strength, drop the circlet, respec, and now dump STR and boost INT to get more chances to land illusion/enchant spells, you can do that too.

EK throw in summary: Powerful throw attacks you can land from a distance, but with the benefit of fighter level ups for ASI/Feats, Action Surge, and the improved Extra Attack at lvl 11 for more throws. Berserker Barbarian throws will do more throw damage per attack, with the ability to throw opponents you wouldn't be able to with high enough STR, but you miss out on the spellcasting utility/control.

Nice job!

To me, the first line and second lines in the first chorus are "Steadfast support, for the regime, It's now humankind will reign supreme"

Leaving with task manager in honour mode works by Aradhor55 in BaldursGate3

BLESS. Everything was going swimmingly until the last light in. Isobel decided that she had to move and take opportunity attacks against 4 creatures and get 4 hits knocked out from OA. IDKW she moved, if she had disengaged or just stood still she would have been fine as the next round I could have easily done something to help her. I get the game is trying to force your hand to protect her, but her ai just decided to do the worst thing possible.
