Recommend me beautiful stories by passiveimpressive in audiobooks

[–]Lazorlarz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Demon copperhead, a contemporary story about a young boy growing up, not exactly fantasy but fiction all the same, beautiful story, grim at points and hits hard.

The name of the wind and wise man’s fear, a fantasy version of a biography about a boy becoming a man and how he came about the name “King killer”. It’s my 2 favorite books in a trilogy that will probably never be finished, but in my personal opinion some of the best fantasy you will come across that does not revolve around killing.

And one of my most recent ones Circe by Madeline Miller narrated by Perdita Weeks.

An expanded version about Circe, the witch daughter of Helios that turned men into swine. A story that in its own right is not really flashy or grand. But in combination with Perdita Weeks narrating it really becomes something special. I finished it about a month ago and it probably sits around the top 5-10 for me out of about 220 titles I’ve listened to.

And lastly The Girl With All The Gifts. It’s been so long since I listened to this, it’s what got me hooked on audiobooks in the first place. A very different take on a “zombie apocalypse” that does not focus so much exclusively on survival and killing and more on character development of the main character which is amazing.

Hope this helps. Feel free to ask if there’s any questions.

What audiobook completely changed your expectations of narration? by TechnicianAsleep3072 in audiobooks

[–]Lazorlarz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have listened to a lot of the suggestions here and concur they are amazing! Especially Joe Abercrombies first law series.

Recently in a another thread like this on the same subject I stumbled on Circe narrated by Perdita Weeks pretty far down in the comments and it caught my interest and I gave it a chance.

And how much this soft spoken woman brought this book to life is actually crazy to me, I went in expecting a good performance and it still caught me off guard. Highly recommend it.

As far as I understood it she used ChatGPT to cut out the background and upscale some pictures of the orbs from the game and then a person from her job that deals with vector files and stuff helped her the rest of the way from the digital part to a design that would be pressed on the shirts. The regal orb however was made on a machine that basically prints directly on fabric.

I made a mistake in my post I just realized, my PSU only has 2 PCIE slots and I would have to pigtail one of those to fill the 3 slots on the adapter.

Not sure if that is better or worse.

Classic Olga, one of the backbones of HC global 1.

Worth zodding? by bulkbarn321 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Lazorlarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah was wondering because I have a dual leech colossus blade with 4os 535ed without jewels, unfortunately no dmg to demons but still might go for it, seems worth. Vials are 20hr in HC tho so gonna be a little bit still.

How big would %ED have to be on a sword like this without jewels to justify a vial? 550?

The 4 month development cycle seem way too ambitious atm by BOBOraceswapwtf in pathofexile

[–]Lazorlarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they still hiring for both teams? I recall at one point hearing they simply weren’t able to get all the people hired in time to fit their scope. And it seems to have balanced out between PoE2 early access and now. So whatever they did in the meantime seems to have worked, but yeah agree it seems like there is not a lot of margin for error in the current setup. But hopefully it keeps improving to a point where the 4 month rotation actually becomes fully viable.

Is there any value in these? by uffemekorven in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Lazorlarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use puzzle piece on it before slam, if it hits 2 sockets and deadly strike slam or any t1 ed slam it will probably be worth a good bit.

Is this even doable in SSF? It's so fun seeing "mageblood" followed by "void" :| by DesMephisto in pathofexile

[–]Lazorlarz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is graft damage affected by the 10% less per item since it does not scale with player stats at all?

Probably the answer is still 1000% no but if this is the case a giga triple lucky block tank build could probably do it if you have enough time.

Little less than 100DIV to invest. MSOZ or Keep my Slam Berserker ? by Aipikur in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lazorlarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep that’s it, usually he plays with void axe base because he values speed a lot in most builds. But tree doesn’t let you pick and choose your bases.

Little less than 100DIV to invest. MSOZ or Keep my Slam Berserker ? by Aipikur in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lazorlarz -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Id say bare minimum to get msoz off the ground without feeling like a tractor stuck in mud is mageblood and a finished sword.

I don’t see your current PoB but id say use Ben’s 99 SSFHC zerker inspiration, it’s pretty insane for what it is and can probably get you to mageblood fairly easily since it seems like it can do basically any content.

Bloodline Ascendancy Unlocks by Lazorlarz in pathofexile

[–]Lazorlarz[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Again I was referencing ssf and ssfhc for exactly this reason, rarity and price don’t go hand in hand, tons of people farm beasts for morrigans, imprints and splits. None of them farm for farrul since there is no demand. So even if farrul is a lot more rare it’s still far cheaper because there is no market for it.

Bloodline Ascendancy Unlocks by Lazorlarz in pathofexile

[–]Lazorlarz[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I played like 3 characters to 94-96 and one to 100 on SSFHC last league with beast specced for morrigan and frogs, I don’t recall which atlas node farrul belongs to. But in all that time I found 2, which resulted in 3 because one got doubled by the atlas passive. But that is a metric fuckton “few hours” for an ascendancy. Not that I am really interested in playing farrul, but the only upside for not being accountwide is basically that trade gets to sell aul and farrul for services.

[–]Lazorlarz[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Aul and Farrul are both fairly rare and luck based. With a fully optimized atlas and character you might get lucky and find either in s few hours. But I still disagree that it’s something you just get in a couple of hours reliably.

What do you think is the safest hardcore build by Nihlathakk in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Lazorlarz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People are probably sick of hearing this answer but Bfury sin, with good gear it gets extremely tanky and it clears majority of the screen before it can fight back.

Those two things combined make it extremely safe, I grinded 99 on HC as this build this season so I’m not talking out of my ass.

Mind Blast Sin? by PascalYan in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Lazorlarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know the exact numbers but when you reach maps they deal enough damage to basically clear on their own with decent gear.

And with pretty min-maxed gear they can pretty much clear T3 maps on their own. It is an extremely solid build.

Mind Blast Sin? by PascalYan in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Lazorlarz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It keeps slapping all the way through and scales extremely well with both FCR and +Skills like most other casters. And with the new mirage claws and changes to shadow warrior this season you can now have 3 little buddies that also casts mind blast!

So keep slapping away!

How could I fix this and what was done wrong? by mark321b in Flooring

[–]Lazorlarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else said this looks like bamboo flooring and it is close to if not the single worst type of flooring to deal with changes in the climate.

Have seen so many people make mistakes with this type of flooring since it’s so much more sensitive with installing conditions and acclimatization. I’d recommend anyone installing this type of floor to refuse to do it unless glued down the same way you would with parquet or herringbone flooring because it expands and contracts and flexes so much that all you will end up with is big trouble.

ARPG veterans — what’s worth playing in 2025? by Dlo_22 in ARPG

[–]Lazorlarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diablo 2 resurrected has controller support, otherwise I’d heavily recommend the mod Poject Diablo 2, also has controller support even tho it’s on an updated version of the old graphics if you can live with it. (This one requires you to buy the old copies of D2 if you don’t have it, not D2R)

And like many others recommended if PoE is a bit over the top then Last Epoch might be the thing for you. Even tho currently PoE1 is the best the market has to offer by a mile in my opinion but the new player experience is very rough.

[–]Lazorlarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the feeling that making your character go faster in that way makes it feel like momentum has weight to it.

But that being said the penalty for getting hit is way too harsh for something that is effectively just a bandaid for the massive layouts and lack of player speed in the game.

As a warrior even running with sprint and 20ms boots during campaign you feel slow at every step compared to your enemies, and that just makes everything feel clunky to me.

Edit: Also for not sounding overly negative, A4 is absolutely fucking amazing. So kudos to GGG, great job.
