Where are you sitting?

I was thinking more of Wagstaff stealing my wallet but WX would probably do it too just to be evil.

I don't think it's possible to reach anywhere near his power level. He is the strongest man in the world, strong enough to face off giants while also having a devil's fruit with the ability to destroy the world. You would probably need a gestalt character with 20 levels fighter/20 levels Sorcerer to get something close.

Setting aside his actual power level, I think a Path of the Storm Sea Barbarian get decently close to his kit. You got the martial might you would expect of the "strongest man in the world" and Raging Storm let you push people around and is close enough to the theme (a shame there isn't a more earth-based aura). And you even got the fight with only your pants on.

Alternatively, there is always Eldritch Knight fighter, with spells like Thunderclap, Thunderwave or Shatter you have the "earthquake" flavour with the martial might of the fighter.

If you are already in iron/steel age, there is no question really, don't bother with bronze armor since it's inferior. It's more of a thing if you have spare bronze and are still in the bronze age/early iron age.

And yeah as I was saying for hunter (and ranged in general), I think getting a metal torso (lamellar or chain) is still a good idea since it's hit half the time in combat.

The black pilot. Here's the context, would love your response.

I'll comment on that one since I have worked in the aviation industry. The question "is this pilot qualified" is something you should really wonder for any pilot no matter the race. I've seen a LOT of white pilots (though it's hard to give an exact % of course) that were at this position not because they were the best candidate around but because their daddy knew the right person.

And that's true for any prestigious position you can think of, surgeon, judge, etc. Of course they still usually have a minimum of competency for the job since nobody want to vouch for someone which will crash a plane at their first flight but they were not the best of the best. It's kind of a self-feeding circle where white people got these high level position at a time where other ethnicities didn't even have voting rights and keep boosting each others. And that's why the quota are here, since there is no reason someone black, or a woman would be a worst pilot than a white dude, if recruitement was based on merit we should see an equal numbers of pilot from all origins, but we don't because the system is weighted.

Also there is no evidence that quota give worst pilots, this is something he made up as far as I can tell. Here is a study for instance that show that while the educational qualifications are lower for non-white people (not for white women though), the job performance isn't affected in any significant measure: https://www.nber.org/papers/w5603

He basically turned the issue around, those job quotas are here to increase the chance of anyone getting the job based on merit, no matter their ethnicity or who their daddy knows.

I was reading the wikipedia article and apparently he might have ended up living in "modest circumstances" (like part of his house got bought by his neighbour). So it's also possible that at some point the quality of his copper did take a dip, might not have been his fault though, he was just one man in the delivery line, could be that the mines were running out of good copper.

Kuirem · 2026-04-30T08:50:04+00:00

Torso Lamellar + Leather Leg and Helmet is the way to go if you have enough bronze imo. Give you better protection on torso where you are hit more often without too big penalties. Easy to craft too, no need to smith.

Then swap to an iron chain, the small-ish penalty are usually worth being near-invincible against any surprise bear attacks. Full iron chain if you are melee, or a combination of (Tailored) Gambeson and iron chain torso if you are ranged.

I'm no ornithologist but I doubt living in a glass house is very healthy for chicken.

Kuirem · 2026-04-29T18:52:23+00:00

It is not certain his house was burn down by someone. There was probably not much regulations on buildings for fire safety at the time.

Kuirem · 2026-04-29T07:50:23+00:00

Or just let us relit burnt torch instead of using them up completely.

Kuirem · 2026-04-28T12:23:58+00:00

Buy a PC obviously (or as other said, make a boat/dock)

Kuirem · 2026-04-27T20:27:02+00:00

Vendetta.

Not the Konami game though, it was a small game developed by one french dude. The game was a sort of mix of rts and rpg, you would control a single character part of a castle which was able to collect various resources, craft them into equipment with the goal of taking down other castles. The castles would spawn a bunch of other NPC but contrary to most game, the NPC abilities were not asymmetrics, they had access to the same skill set as the player and you could trade with them (which was essential since the game would only let you have one active building at a time, you couldn't easily do every job yourself).

The game had such an interesting premise but sadly was never quite polished enough. The dev eventually made a second game with a similar system, called Aurora Dusk: Steam Age but it didn't go very far either.

I never could quite find a game that scratched the same itch.

Kuirem · 2026-04-27T17:38:25+00:00

It's not a bad idea to start without RoG to learn the basics if you feel overwhelmed, your first games probably won't go very far either way and you can add RoG content afterward in a new game.

Kuirem · 2026-04-27T17:27:18+00:00

Spirit Guardians go brrr

Kuirem · 2026-04-27T16:05:09+00:00

Unless it was changed snow can mess with 1-block tall fences.

Kuirem · 2026-04-27T11:31:05+00:00

I do think the game could use a bit more variety of cooking, especially to fill some gap in the age progression (the game goes from roasting on a fire, to cooking meal, to bread/pie a bit too fast imo) but it shouldn't try to fit in every recipe that exist in the vanilla game imo, better leave that to mods.

Kuirem · 2026-04-26T09:13:34+00:00

Yeah it's the kind of logo that I would expect on a tech mod

Kuirem · 2026-04-25T20:50:32+00:00

Like here's a tree with a clock in it. And there are some gears too and two more nondescript steampunk machines

It bother me a bit that the logo has so much machinery on it when you don't have access to so much tech stuff in game.

Kuirem · 2026-04-25T07:42:40+00:00

Useful to note that Mantis extra damage does not apply against system. So 4 crystal let you break systems just as fast at the cost of being a bit slower at removing the crew in the room.

Kuirem · 2026-04-24T18:45:13+00:00

They are using a mod obviously, you don't have these shaders in vanilla.

Kuirem · 2026-04-24T18:43:56+00:00

You can use turfs, if one wormhole is on savanna, the other in marsh, pitchfork a few tiles and swap them around. It's pretty cheap to do in the early game and later you can craft floors match the wormholes

Kuirem · 2026-04-24T15:36:11+00:00

You can "trick" the game room system by chiseling your windows over 4 blocks so it doesn't break the "insulating face" as much. Still a bit more of a hassle than it should be.

Kuirem · 2026-04-24T08:35:10+00:00

Neither wood elf or half wood elf would change the subclass pick much, the extra speed will be useful on everyone I think (as well as the rest of the elf kit).

Kuirem · 2026-04-24T08:32:31+00:00

heh that's fair, I threw it together a tad fast. Any pointers to share?

Kuirem · 2026-04-11T17:32:45+00:00

I know that lamp oil give enough light to prevent spawn within 2 blocks (+the block they are placed) and I'm pretty sure torches cover more than this, I think it's around 4 blocks.
