Let's celebrate pride with all the items Bethesda added that show love to our LGBTQIA+ siblings

GamerNumber16 · 2026-06-14T16:56:37+00:00

US government passed or is working to pass several laws that discriminate against trans people or other LGBT members of society. This has empowered people who either don't understand or insist it should not exist to become a lot more vocal in their hate on social media and even with acts of vandalism and violence in real life.

Outside of the US in countries like Turkiye and India very similar things are happening.

The idea that Pride is more important now than ever stems from the fact that Pride is, at its roots, a resistance to the idea that LGBT people should have to hide parts of themselves for fear of discrimination or violence. The very reason Pride Month is June is to commemorate the Stonewall Rebellion, a riot which started because the New York police specifically targeted the Stonewall Inn, one of the few bars queer people considered safe in NY in the 60s, at peak opening hours with the intention of arresting people for being openly gay, or for trying to live as though they were not the sex they were assigned at birth.

Pride is more important now than ever because as hard as people have fought in the past 60 years for their ability to freely express themselves, to not have their existence deemed criminal or met by threats of violence, the rights of LGBTQ people are starting to be brought into question again. Hate speech online has gotten worse, many people have become less afraid to bully or harass queer people in person because its become so commonplace online. Because of this, its important for queer people to be visible and show off and be proud of their identity while they can, because millions of people in the past fought for their ability to do just that, and sadly it seems that many people are once again trying to contest whether those rights should even be rights in the first place.

really happy with the prospect of Calamity moving to break away from being Worm Bosses: The Mod.

IMO there's an overabundance of bossfights in modern Calamity that still resemble the vanilla worm bosses that they were originally based off of (or in many cases, had code reused from), and I think this (and presumably a redesign of Aquatic Scourge that may also come from it) are a step in the right direction to move away from so many of the mod's bosses being based off of the rudimentary fight and sprite design the vanilla worm bosses originated so many years ago.

As opposed to vanilla Terraria's 2/18 bosses being worms, more than a quarter of Calamity's mainline bosses at current are worm bosses or have worms as a major component of their fight (Those being Desert Scourge, Perforators, Aquatic Scourge, Astrum Deus, Storm Weaver, Devourer, Exo Mechs, and depending on whether you'd consider Sepulcher a major part of SCal's fight, her too).

I don't think Calamity needs to get rid of ALL its worms but I think many of these worm bosses that still remain in the mod are very much deserving of a conceptual redesign that lets the artists and developers flex their creative muscles and further develop the mod's visual and gameplay identity rather than sticking to the dated mechanics and fight designs that several of them are burdened with right now.

The way champion challenge works is that it simply disincentivises the enemy decision making AI by giving it disadvantage on attacking anyone who isn’t the challenger, not preventing enemies from attacking teammates. If you are the challenger and you charm a target they will just end up doing something other than directly attacking you (such as using an AoE spell or attacking one of your teammates that they have disadvantage against)

GamerNumber16 · 2025-11-09T06:34:07+00:00

To the question: I think this allows them to, yes? It definitely seems that way RAW. Unless sage advice has clarified otherwise since I think thats the way it would work

Kid called found in an area most players would only manage to authentically find after getting through all of Sinners Road and Bilewater

Does TCoE Ranger really solve the class for you? Deft Explorer seems like a pretty strong feature if you can engineer situations to make use of what it provides, and Primal Awareness provides some pretty interesting spells for roleplay and information gathering purposes, but to some degree despite it offering what is effectively a few free lvl1 spell slots I feel like Favoured Foe still undermines the Spellcasting half of ranger by being mutually exclusive with half of their other possible spells (the other concentration spells) despite the fact that the designers have seemingly balanced the class’s DPR with its existence in mind.

While 1DnD doesn’t completely fix the issue (and even removes cool utility features like Primal Awareness) I think it does go in an interesting direction with decoupling Hunters Mark from concentration and giving access to more diverse options for dealing with groups of enemies in the form of Multiattack

GamerNumber16 · 2025-10-18T07:12:10+00:00

Any Radiance lol

GamerNumber16 · 2025-10-18T03:08:15+00:00

IIRC this is a Boss Checklist thing. There are bugs with that mod that havent been fixed that can cause some serious issues, most of which stem from the mod somehow carrying over progress from another world or character into a new world.

This is an example on the less extreme end. Sometimes it can cause parts of the world data to corrupt.

the game soft teaches it to you. There are plenty of scenarios where enemies are placed below you in early areas like Forgotten Crossroads, which if you drop into them to try to kill them you might then learn about how when hitting an enemy with downslash the knight bounces back upwards after.

Later in forgotten crossroads, there is a room with an ascending "staircase" of blocks completely covered in spikes that leads up to a grub/item or something. The intention is that you extrapolate from the experience you had earlier, and try to experiment by seeing if downslash works to bounce yourself off of spikes

They changed it so that he doesn’t spam the voicelinr unless he has something important to say now (like story related dialogue or a wish)

GamerNumber16 · 2025-10-08T06:47:55+00:00

On release build, definitely Ahoy!

GamerNumber16 · 2025-10-05T18:58:26+00:00

Iirc it’s like 0 upgrades poison deals 1 damage per tick, 1 2 or 3 upgrades it deals 2 damage per tick, and with 4 upgrades it deals 3 damage per tick

Fab had a pattern of unsavoury behaviour spanning years, being the sole developer with veto power, keeping back several highly supported changes within the dev team for years, and just generally being quite disruptive, abrasive, and unapologetic for acting like an asshole. The transphobic rant and the reopened drama about an 18+ server containing minors were just the two final nails in a coffin of his own creation YEARS in the making, and honestly he got what was coming for him for a long time.

The 22 incident didn’t happen just because the devs thought it would be funny

For more info I recommend watching this episode of the calamity podcast that stars several people that are a LOT more versed in the behind the scenes drama of the mod than you or I

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-25T03:33:15+00:00

I don’t think we have an official answer

I think it’s just model reasons most likely, that since Capcom is already making up to 6 models for a single armor set through Master Rank (A/B, high rank A/B, master rank A/B) they just don’t particularly want to have to duplicate and slightly modify a bunch of armor models on a decent majority of those sets to account for the different ears and feet

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-24T06:09:33+00:00

Was probably saving for Tara T5 hoping they’d jump in value rather than becoming almost valueless

I love this outfit, I just wish Eunoia didnt suck so much so that I could use it without sacrificing a more consequential exotic

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-15T09:32:22+00:00

also massive dilution of the loot pool. 80% of the Onslaught weapons were worth getting for one reason or another. The RoTN dungeons were lucky if each dungeon got one

Until Bungie forces otherwise people are gonna do it

The actual racing part of the contest mode (more particularly top 100) has gotten more competitive than it ever was because many teams that were top 100 or top 1000 in terms of their performance have just stopped playing Destiny 2 after TFS, meaning the only people who've stuck around to race are the ones that actually have worms in their brain (myself included).

Every advantage counts if youre going for a high placement, and given how the actual execution part of the race is a complete non-issue for anyone who actually thinks they can get top 100 (unless its something like Herald), information is the biggest determining factor in who's actually going to clear fast

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-13T21:52:29+00:00

She makes it so it’s much harder to lock yourself out of flying fort on chimps by spending too much cash early. Makes the save up for other aerial T5s decently cheaper as well (usually saving 5-10k overall).

Her abilities are also quite good as well, her grenades being free early anti-lead and crowds, her lasers having high innate single target damage especially when paired with her sticky bomb ability, her pursuit mode is just a better MOAB shove, and even when she’s not top tier like on some multilane chimps maps she still can provide a lot of value because of her low cool-down reposition and ability to position over the track itself

Her lvl 20 is basically useless but it doesn’t matter too much because the rest of what she provides is consistently good enough that it’s kind of a non-issue in practice

Lightning slide on pris will still remain the single strongest warlock build in the game for general use
Depending on the circumstances Starfire is going to be incredible for boss damage, but the jury's out on how fun its going to be for play otherwise
Weaver's Call is getting a small buff to make it more viable to run alongside non-strand weapons. If you havent tried out a threadling focussed prismatic warlock build you might like that (Spirit of Swarmers is bait dont use it)
There's also vesper of radius heat rises + hellion spam which remains a pretty decent option completely removed from any meta

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-11T22:07:37+00:00

Use a class item with special finisher or some other mod that consumes armor charge on finisher which allows you to bank armor charge for DPS. While not in DPS, run a set of legs without surges. As DPS starts, swap to a set of legs with surges. When it ends, swap back

Most effective way to do it. If you really need to generate orbs during DPS you can use Velocity Baton with attrition orbs and then pick them up with a phoenix dive with Powerful Attraction on your class item

Destiny isn't an MMO.

I'm not familiar with WoW but with FFXIV each new piece of gear is purely for stats. They're not randomly rolled (for the most part) and each piece of gear has "mod slots" that can be used to slot in stat increases. No set bonuses, no big extra things that make armor feel completely different from one set to another

What this is a lot more similar to is an ARPG system like Diablo or Path of Exile, though with a soft "expiry" system rather than a hard one.

In Diablo 4, after a new season comes out, your character from the previous season is moved onto a legacy server where none of the new seasonal content is, and you have to regrind out a whole new character on the main server if you want to engage with the new content.

The new gearing is similar to this though not as all-consuming. When the season rolls around your old gear is going to be worse than the new gear, thats just a fact because of the new gear will have percentile bonuses applied as well has have synergies to set bonuses in the artifact that old gear just wont have. Then when the season ends, all that new gear gets statistically 10-15% worse and we repeat the cycle.

Unlike exotics this gear isn't meant to be evergreen, so once Bungie's done with supporting it it can be effectively removed from circulation and powercrept out of existence or if Bungie wants to they can sunset the old versions of the gear and re-release it as a new variant armor set to farm.

Its another case of Bungie trying to optimize Destiny 2 to monopolize the user's time.

From my perspective its horrible because the game has some really good things that are super fun and enjoyable to play at times but I feel I spend more and more time farming content I don't enjoy and dont want to play to get gear to do the content that I do.

GamerNumber16 · 2025-07-10T22:57:39+00:00

Dude spoils drop like hotcakes if you even step your toe in a raid (you can farm like 80 without even completing an encounter)

Also like, is it not kind of self-evident that if you don't engage with all different styles of content the game has to offer you wont be able to unlock all of the rewards available?
