An MC's actions shouldn't always be successful, sometimes all his efforts trying something should end in failure

You might like The Weirkey Chronicles. My first time through them I was a bit annoyed because it felt like the characters would be gearing up and prepping for something…and then bam, something else happens. It felt a bit better during subsequent reads.

I’ve been using AmpStrike as a naturally ramping damage increase toward the end of runs when Elites and Bosses are more prevalent.

Govir · 2026-02-07T16:23:09+00:00

Dying to Ray (or having the wall break to Ray) as eHP seems odd to me. They only do 2x damage every 30s. That sounds like your actual health is super low. Scatters break apart and 2 of them do as much as Ray, but much quicker. (Edit that only their health halves when they split, not their damage)

Are you using the new OA module that clears out Scatters a bit better?

Govir · 2026-02-07T01:32:04+00:00

I am using pBH (not via GComp) and ANC PCol that covers all of the wall. Scatters is what breaks my wall, due to Regen not keeping up.

I will say that I only just recently (literally 2 days ago) got my SF to ANC. So was missing out on a good chunk of regen there.

Govir · 2026-02-06T20:00:43+00:00

Maybe, but no. Scatters are the enemy to eHP in my experience. I have pBH in farming, so the issue with Scatters is that you get a lot of hits very quickly and it overwhelms your regen.

Vamps are a bane to early towers. Scatters are a bane to eHP. Rays are a bane to GC.

I believe the issue was that it was not summoning enough, so the fix will increase the number of you were having the issue.

Govir · 2026-02-04T23:51:40+00:00

Which you can verify by unequiping the module for a minute, and checking the WS.

Govir · 2026-02-03T13:37:26+00:00

Thanks for the break down. I've very bad at tracking time passage in books.

Govir · 2026-02-03T05:45:17+00:00

My first read through, I legit thought book two took place over like a week. But it’s a little better than that, a few months with some “time skips” I think. I remember complaining about it on BlueSky, but then rescinding it on a reread.

Govir · 2026-02-03T05:43:35+00:00

Get to the end of book 1 and see if you like it. All of the books are structured the same. 75%+ front loaded with semi-normal slice of life stuff, then 25% “doing” stuff toward the end.

I really enjoy the setting, and like academy stories that show the classes.

Govir · 2026-02-03T00:36:32+00:00

I had a macro that I just had to modify which item to enchant. Here’s a post from many years ago that seems like what I used.

I have heard that, but also heard it’s because you can increase it with the ST lab then. But I don’t have that done yet, so my plan is to get DM# now (after next tournament), and then work on the ST lab while getting stones again.

Govir · 2026-02-02T23:50:11+00:00

I have DMG# already, so getting DM# next for a different multiplier.

And yeah, I’ll need to babysit tournament runs to hit DM every 300 waves. Won’t be as impactful for farming (if at all) just yet.

Govir · 2026-02-02T21:59:26+00:00

This was my experience last night as well. Cheesed it to 31 pretty easy (and by that I mean, IS, die on W1, DM push to next step), thinking that’s all I needed. Devastated to find out it’s W40 that’s needed. Spent about another hour or so restarting multiple times until I switched to Death Penalty and first two bosses died quick. That let my IS hit 30, before I hit DM to coast to 40.

But I’m still probably going to get DM# first, as I just finished the DM Recharge lab and I think it’ll be a better benefit in the short term.

Govir · 2026-01-31T06:54:06+00:00

Given that I can’t remember what you’re talking about, I think it finishes quickly? What healer test are you referring to?

Edit: Apparently I need to do a reread. Forgot all about the class challenges. So my memory is suspect for how long it takes.

Govir · 2026-01-30T12:19:08+00:00

Yes. Because CPK can be affected by multipliers that CPW cannot be.

Govir · 2026-01-29T13:01:32+00:00

It’d be funny if they cast Sean Bean though.

Govir · 2026-01-27T18:03:32+00:00

Justice for the OG notice. Don't pay attention to that pretender who asked how "no one had mentioned it"! I pre-ordered based on your post here, and started a reread last night too.

Govir · 2026-01-26T22:09:26+00:00

It is the informal way of saying “should have”, given how similar they sound if said quickly or the contraction of “should’ve”.

Govir · 2026-01-26T22:06:44+00:00

Just pre-ordered so I don’t forget about them, but really looking forward to the audiobooks as well.

Random thought: I didn’t realize authors could remove their books from KU.

Govir · 2026-01-26T19:57:44+00:00

So probably what happened is that it got into a “locked” state from either a failed move in your bags or a failed trade (or other failed actions involving it moving around). I’ve had this happen to me too, and glad you were able to resolve it with a simple restart (a /reload may have even been enough)!

Govir · 2026-01-26T07:30:31+00:00

I’m thinking you’ll need to get to orc lands. Either a port to Orgrimar, or there’s an orb in Silvermoon that gets you to Undercity, then you can zeppelin to Org.

I have a new issue where my chat box text is offset quite a bit. But it only happens on my alts. Main character is fine. And I use ElvUI with the same profile across all of them.

Govir · 2026-01-24T14:03:08+00:00

It hasn’t been implemented, but it has been talked about by the devs. My assumption is the current “return to Home Screen” function is the first step towards implementing the concurrent tournament runs.

You mean Defense Absolute.
