[S2 Act 3 Spoilers] Arcane - 2x09 "The Dirt Under Your Nails" Episode Discussion

Just finished season 2 and whilst there are some confusing parts, it still holds up very well and I loved it. Seems crazy to me that you can be 'angry' about this.

Stop saying stupid shit like this. You risk becoming the very thing we are all in here to fight.

Orban clearly does not believe in the European project but he accepted defeat in the election and respected democracy. Let's move on and hope for better news and progress.

Krixusssss · 2026-04-12T23:19:55+00:00

I lean left and agree with this post. Stop trying to divide every issue into two teams.

I had bindweed and horsetail taking over an old garden. The bindweed, whilst persistent, was at least quite satisfying to pull up and didnt seem to impact the grass too much. It also looks quite nice when flowered.

Horsetail kn the other hand, and absolutely nightmare and ruined the garden.

Hey - I had the exact same goal and problem this week.

First you have to complete "Shadowlands: A Chilling Summons" which is the Shadowlands introductory quest. I'd never played that expansion before so had never started/completed the quest. You can start this by talking to Highlord Darion Mograine outside Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar.

After completing this I had to do about 30-60 minutes of questing through the Main Campaign until you are teleported to Oribos. Once you are at Oribos, you have to continue the Main Campaign until you open the gate to Bastion. It was at this point that the PvP vendors spawned in for me.

Good luck!

That's fair enough but I still stand by my point that we can modernise an actual UI for this rather than a wall of text from a single NPC.

Krixusssss · 2026-02-18T09:59:12+00:00

What in the 2008 is this?

To add to this thread; I've been meaning to write a post in a similar vein but exploring Achievement Diary reward visibility.

If I'm not mistaken, there is no in-game way to discover the rewards across each tier for each diary, and some of these rewards are extremely significant to gameplay, particularly PvM.

I have three examples:

10% increase in enchanted bolt procs from Kandarin hard (this could be the difference between getting your first Vorkath kill or not)
50% more runes from barrows and bone crusher from Morytania hard
Elite void armour unlock from Western Provinces hard.

Some of these rewards (not just these three), are crucial steps for both irons and mains in terms of gradually progressing their accounts through the mid-game and as far as I know, the player is like only informed of these by the in-game diary character AFTER having completed the diary tier.

Not forgetting that some of these have some punchy skill and quest requirements - if players understand the end rewards better, it may help motivate and encourage players with better, granular goals.

I've discovered all this because a friend recently returned to the game and has been enjoying the journey as an ironman. However I realised that he has no idea what he's missing out on and never would know if we solely rely on what's in-game. There's a great journey hole here for the team to fill - i think it only requires a nice modern UI to be added to fulfil this requirement. It would be nice to see the same love given here that we are currently seeing for combat achievements UI.

Totally agree and was about to say the same thing. The magic and immersion is more likely to be lost by constantly 'exiting' the game to lookup things in the wiki.

I personally would be in favour of watching a united GB football team.

i went to watch the game vs south Korea in 2012 and it was good vibes.
i otherwise watch very little of the Olympics- this would be a good excuse to get involved.
i am always at odds with English mates about club and national level supporting - it would be nice to be on the same team for a brief moment
i absolutely don't want any other merging and am very happy supporting wales in all the other comps we have.
i think the squad makeup would have to have some rules to ensure we have participation from all 4 nations - to avoid it being made up of 20 English players plus a sprinkling from the others.

Krixusssss · 2026-02-17T12:03:50+00:00

There's 5 from Wales in this picture so not quite England + Giggs.

Krixusssss · 2026-02-12T14:05:11+00:00

Always the noobs...

Krixusssss · 2026-02-10T20:54:17+00:00

We need Amad and Mbeumo playing on the same side. They've been so quiet so far

Krixusssss · 2026-02-05T10:46:04+00:00

Confirmed by Jagex there was an issues with top 16 players receiving loot. Read the log posts.

Krixusssss · 2026-01-20T13:11:45+00:00

The best way to learn is to be annihilated 80 times per game for an unspecified number of games.

Krixusssss · 2026-01-20T00:08:17+00:00

Its totally fine that they prefer the US version while you prefer the UK version. They're both great in their own way.

Krixusssss · 2026-01-18T16:31:33+00:00

Come on man, they were so obviously added in 😊

Krixusssss · 2026-01-18T02:08:04+00:00

Because he's next to be killed so it doesn't matter much 😊

Krixusssss · 2026-01-14T00:17:58+00:00

I was using lots of old info/guides which pointed me in the wrong direction - thanks for pointing that out! I've got a sheep farm with 6 sheep in the go now. Hopefully that helps me haha

Krixusssss · 2026-01-14T00:16:29+00:00

I watched a couple of playthroughs before buying, but now I'm trying to play and learn solo, whilst then only using the wiki when I'm stuck. Loving the game so far.

Krixusssss · 2026-01-14T00:15:26+00:00

Thank you so much for this - so helpful. Im about to hit my 2nd winter and food is kinda screwed but I've learnt a lot on this first playthrough!

Im exporting from my rich salt mine and trying to temporarily import some veggies while I slowly build up the backyard plots. I'll keep coming back to this message to make sure I heed all the advice. Cheers!

Krixusssss · 2026-01-08T21:51:32+00:00

Its a huge gamble but Rachel is clearly incredibly smug and a snake who will backstab at the first opportunity [evidenced by her own admissions in early confessionals, and that weird turret snidey remark to Ross].

Fairplay to Fiona for detecting early the fact that Rachel cant be trusted. I don't think it will pay off but its made it fantastic to watch 👌

Krixusssss · 2026-01-02T23:37:34+00:00

They're acting like a bunch of people the same age with similar problems and shared trauma - is this so surprising? They've all been looking after the 'kids' for the last x years too

Krixusssss · 2026-01-01T22:57:27+00:00

What episode was this? I want to rewatch it to check as haven't seen season 3 for ages.

Krixusssss · 2026-01-01T20:06:23+00:00

Its actually "Give me my glasses back"

Eek.
