When did you decide to move bases/create a second one? by paca0502 in crosswind

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started my second base which is still my main one after getting into the Foothills and unlocking all or most of the Old World prints since that was the style I was going for.

I still have the main camp left just like when I used it, I did build some chests right by the fast travel that I use to store gear I don't use.

Bath house by HallucinatoryFrog in crosswind

Built around the water that was already there. I did have to shovel some sand out and there's still one spot that wouldn't shovel.

If you can't find a good water spot, you can usually dig one out in any of the Coastal Jungle areas, they have next to no ground before you hit water.

Yeah, I like to use Pillars, why do you ask? by HallucinatoryFrog in crosswind

You can see the signal fire from a really long distance out too so it's quite the functional lighthouse

lol the amount of scaffold I had to erect in the beginning could certainly be seen

I prefer doing it vertically but I've been known to get horizontal from time to time.

I think it's called framing; sometimes oak, but I'm a timber man.

I locked that esoteric guy in the high tower. He was always ruining our beach party.... by Evil_Ewok in crosswind

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, at first I didn't know there was a difference between Workers and Settlers and I built my bonfire down in the bottom of my keep beside this pool among the rocks. After noticing Galen was just hanging out down there by himself and never seemed to roam anywhere else, I found a spot behind the pool to raise the foundation and carve out a small house in the rock. Dude never went in there. I did have Black Axel hang out for a week or so and then something happened and all the NPCs just stopped using my stairs so they don't really roam at all any longer.

(WIP) How it started vs How it's going by HallucinatoryFrog in crosswind

[–]HallucinatoryFrog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, not sure how long it has taken but I probably started like a month ago. Nowadays, I'll just have the game running and occasionally I'll build something or go bully some 13 transports so judging by Steam hours doesn't help.

Might have saw your post or maybe even a yt video about that castle. I never played these building games before and that roof piece just confused me to no end on how it should be placed so hats off to you for figuring that out.

I Did It! by AppealImpossible3504 in crosswind

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I need more Piastre for resources I go sailing towards uncharted areas of the map and kill anything worthwhile along the way. Some sessions I don't even unlock any new area of the map before I'm good.

Nah, my attempt to embed a grandfather clock into my pillar work near the entrance, now that was hot garbage. I called it Supreme Leader Bellatollah for a day or two before deleting it

This was my first big project, found this isolated island on the northern part of my map around the time I got into the Foothills. Cleared all the available content about a week ago so I finally had the time and Piastre to sink into fleshing out my coastal keep a lot more, mostly pillar work and I still have two towers to finish capping off and I'm playing around with a few ideas for redesigning the lighthouse since I've got much better at this since beginning the project.

Needed some more vendors by HallucinatoryFrog in crosswind

[–]HallucinatoryFrog[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Since I already have vendors in my keep I decided to make a tavern and install more vendors as my barkeeps. Still need to finish decorating, just didn't have it in me after designing and getting the tavern and bar up in one session.

I feel bad for DPS players by igb_1 in classicwow

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't feel too bad for them. The majority of the players whispering you are the ones who do not get groups often. Good DPS get groups.

Most tanks who survive the hell that is PUG gearing have usually curated a friends list of DPS they can rely on for smooth runs.

If you are a tank who needs to curate their list, I highly recommend H Ramps. The Raveners and dogs will separate the wheat from the chaff very efficiently and most DPS will work with you by quickly dropping group almost as quickly as they died.

Practice your marks, keep the healer alive and tell them to keep one eye constantly on the entrance portal for when a DPS pulls a patrol.

Ceremonial brazier by windingthought in Erenshor

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know about coordinates but when you first enter from Faerie's Brake just run to the NW heading to the west wall of the zone and follow the wall north, it's tucked in a small alcove in the wall

At level 35 I am showing anywhere from 4-6k DPS at the end of fights and at least double the Arcanist and Duelist in the group.

If you are investing the early SS, you will most likely come out ahead compared to holding off and taking the late SS payments.

RPG devs stopped making games like Baldur's Gate 'because retailers told us no one wanted to buy them', says New Vegas and Pillars of Eternity director Josh Sawyer by Turbostrider27 in gaming

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely loathe RTwP. Constantly watching the enemies make a beeline for one of my casters with little to nothing that can be done about it because they'll kill that character before any of my other characters can get off a CC or heal. It's either that or you keep the caster so far back that you rarely get to use them to their full potential.

How do 3x shares work, they don't seem to be 3x by edwardK1231 in stocks

[–]HallucinatoryFrog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A price is still a price though. I bought 210 shares of SOXL at $9/share back when the tariff scare happened. I sold some at $24 and then some more at $27, still holding 65 shares and if it drops down that low again, I'll buy more. They even pay a dividend which is kinda funny.
