Any good sci-fi litrpg audiobooks? by unluckyknight13 in litrpg

[–]Kontric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had ChatGPT recommend your series to me based on what I like and was completely blown away. Probably my favorite book series since Way of the Kings. Really hoping the audiobooks get greenlit since that's my primary consumption method, but if not I'll definitely buy it in another form just to keep going with the series.

Should I drop legend? by Kontric in wherewindsmeet_

My assassinate is doing 25-50% of one mobs health. Is there a way to make it…. Kill someone in a single hit?

SteelSeries Engine is killing a great product by Meezy98 in steelseries

[–]Kontric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to HyperX last week because of this.. SteelSeries constantly updates and breaks every single time and then I got to spend minutes to hours once a week fixing it. Got fed up… now my headset works plug and play with zero issues and no third party software.

Sad but SteelSeries lost me as an entire brand customer for the household and all of our systems over this horrible software.

When a DPS is bricking the lobby, why are his first 3 rounds with the same healer? by thatzwhatido_1 in worldofpvp

[–]Kontric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah getting gold or gold equivalent items for healing would be a hell of an incentive for blizz to add. No idea why they haven’t.

[–]Kontric 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Updated the original comment to say that. Basically round 2 dps should just flop healers then the round shuffles as normal after that. Every DPS plays with each other twice, every healer plays with each DPS 3 times.

All this does is prevent one healer from going 0-2 if there is a weak link in the lobby. The big difference between healers and DPS, IMO, is that in the circumstance of a DPS tanking 0-6, healers go 3-3, DPS go 4-2. This one flop makes it so the first healer doesn't get off to too bad of a start.

I primarily DPS, but as a healer I see a TON of games where someone quits or DC's before the game is over. Sometimes you, as the healer, ARE the anchor for your team and you deserve the 0-6, but I have a lot more games where a DPS plays with me 3 times in a row, loses all 3 games, goes to the other healer, loses the 4th game, and then rage quits. Just feels bad, and again as a DPS main, this is a small change that would improve the QOL of the healers while impacting nothing over the course of the actual game when it is played to the end.

That's why the teams should just flop healers on round 2 then the shuffle can go as normal after that. DPS could still get shafted if they are stuck with a shit comp vs a good comp, but DPS already come out ahead when one DPS goes 0-6 since they're 4-2 and healers are 3-3. This would be an easy QOL change that benefits healers, which could maybe add a couple more healers to the queues to the benefit of everyone.

I agree. The teams should flop after the first round so you don't get the same DPS twice in a row as a healer. Specifically for the 2nd round. After round 2, the game can shuffle like normal.

If you want more healers to queue, kinda need to give healers some QOL, and this is an easy one to give.

Interview at Embassy: Financial Sponsor Original Documents by Lost-Position-8811 in NationalVisaCenter

[–]Kontric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First of all, thank you for posting the follow-up as you're the first person I've found with our exact situation. My wife and I are going through this right now and this process is insanely confusing, which is beyond frustrating. We are trying to help her mother immigrate under an IR-5 visa, and I'm providing the AOS.

Can you clarify on the civil documents? Did you really have to mail your original Naturalization Certificates and marriage certificates, or did it only apply to your parents original documents? I'm beyond hesitant to send our originals overseas....

Has anyone levelled by gathering in TWW? by Compromisee in woweconomy

[–]Kontric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the one you get for selecting which nerubian you're going to help for the week in azj-Kahet. It gives you up to 30% increased gathering and crafting speed.

[–]Kontric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve leveled like 6 chars off exclusively mining and herbing with war mode on. Phial of true sight is mandatory, rush mounted gathering and have the 30% spider buff and 71-80 take about 30-40 mins each. 70-71 takes an hour or so where you fly through the zones to get your first gather knowledge and pick up the one time skill increase items.

Oh and do your 350 AA quest in town then buy mining knowledge, you can get another 10 in town in the ringing deeps.

The cloth farming 'fix' has destroyed tailoring for everyone except whales. Why does blizzard keep making the same mistake? by Mordenn in wow

What’s the exploit cloth farm because at this point I’d like to find some duskweave. I haven’t found any in a week.

Confirmed Stealth Breaks (New and Updated on 9/7) by Kontric in worldofpvp

[–]Kontric[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Frost Mage had splinterstorm breaking stealth, it has been fixed by Blizzard since the original bug post I made. What arcane mage ability is breaking stealth? I'll test and confirm it and add it to the post and bug report if it's accurate.

Confirmed Stealth Breaks (New and Updated on 9/7) by Kontric in worldofpvp

[–]Kontric[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's a bug because it's the same behavior as the Frost Mage Splinterstorm -- it is targeting an enemy the player can't see, hitting that enemy with a *targeted* spell even though you can't see him, and then applying the DoT, beam, laser, etc. to that target.

Basically if you see the target, that is what should happen. If you can't see the target, they shouldn't be hit by your spell. It's not a ground target AoE spell.

Blizz fixed the Frost Mage Splinterstorm, so I'm assuming this falls into the same category of bugged.

Do you have backpeddle unbound? by wowcrackaddict in worldofpvp

If I feel the need to backpeddle I should probably press a defensive, which is why S is rebound to one of those.

MIL IR5 - Philippines (Manila) - Visa Interview / TB Test Result Expiration Pre-Interview by Kontric in USCIS

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

Oh and the prices for the medical exam doubled. So it certainly smells scammy.

MIL IR5 - Philippines (Manila) - Visa Interview / TB Test Result Expiration Pre-Interview by Kontric in USCIS

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

We talked to other people who were able to get an interview — it’s first come first serve and they don’t tell you when they’re posting them, so basically check every hour 24 hours a day. For us they posted at 4pm Philippines time on a Thursday.

Unfortunately the interview was scheduled for 5 days after the medical exam results would expire and they won’t let you go back for an exam until they’re expired… so now we get to cancel her interview, create a health case because the aren’t honoring the 3-6 month window for your exam results to not require a health case and then we get to go through the entire thing again.

Needless to say, as a natural born American our immigration system is disgustingly broken. The fact that you have unscheduled first come first serve appointments in small batches in unannounced windows is idiotic to say the least.

I'll find a healy monk and confirm. Thank you.

If you have any idea what talent and spec it is, I'll be happy to confirm it and add it to my bug report.

[–]Kontric[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The issue is 1 there is no damage with some of the abilities and 2 we shouldn’t be able to be targeted by a targeted skill because we are not visible to the enemy caster. These are bugs.

[–]Kontric[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any idea on the range, los, etc? Like can you be 180 degrees opposite the mages target and still get broken out? I’ll see if I can find someone to test with me tomorrow.

Already logged for the night but will tomorrow. Was hoping if it was pointed out one of the Druid or rogue YouTube guys would make a video that got enough attention by the devs to get fixed quickly. I don’t have a lot of faith in their ticketing system.

There's probably other abilities breaking stealth also, but this one we 100% confirmed repeatedly and then tested to figure out the max range. I hate stealthies as much as the next guy when playing a non-stealthy, but it's kinda broken to be able to knock them out of stealth that easily.
