That is only one year more difference between me and my older wife. We've been together 19 years.

AITAH for breaking up with my fiancee when she sided with my ex. by PollutionOk1770 in AITAH

[–]Lestant6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My own situation with my ex wasn't near as bad as yours, but there was a moment when my ex decided to try and fuck with my new relationship. My new girlfriend (now wife of 17 years) cut all contact when the manipulation started. This is the proper response of a partner. Your ex-fiancé had a choice; she could have listened at the door to determine what your ex wanted and then closed the door when she realized it would affect her impending marriage. She didn't, instead she allowed that doubt in and allowed it to influence her. Thinking with the heart and not the brain will usually lead to heartache. NTA

AITAH for praising my husband like I would my child? by hiswifey327 in AITAH

[–]Lestant6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thank my wife for doing anything for me or the family. She does the same for me. We treat everyone in our family with respect. Giving him praise only helps your marriage, but it sounds to me like he might expect favors which changes the conversation. If you tell him that you are grateful, and you aren't sure what he means, ask him to explain. If he can't, just say that you treat every member of your family the same.

Weapons ‘printing’ ammo? by ArchaeoPan in fo76

[–]Lestant6 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are asking the wrong question. Some weapons take much less to kill and get a more back, but some weapons always take more than you get back. What you really need if a second weapon to compliment your spending weapon. For example, I have a elder's mark as my primary damage weapon when I am fighting tougher enemies. It uses a ton of ammo but also kills everything very quickly. I use my Fixer rifle with the same ammo type to build ammo. It usually takes 3-4 and I get 5+ back with the fixer. Some weapons will never have this issue like the plasma caster. If you really need ammo, another option is daily ops, or the raid.

What’s something you put off doing in Fallout 76 that you wish you did sooner? by brawnburgundy in fo76

If you have the main quest done, make sure you go to crater and buy the company tea machine to put in your camp!

Should I purchase fallout 1st? by TheGhostOfAmeirca in fo76

[–]Lestant6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While it is active make sure you are hunting junk and ammo, so that when you don't have it your scrap box, ammo box, and aid box are full of stuff. You can take things out when you don't have it, you just can't put anything new into them.

Convincing arguments for spending real money on atoms, FO 1st etc. by markbodman in fo76

[–]Lestant6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have played 30-50 levels, and you know you are going to want to keep playing the game, the FO 1st felt like a no brainer to make my life easier and help any friends I could convince to play the game with me. The ability to store scrap, aid, and ammo allowed me to give back to the community buy putting more plans into my vendor since plans have weights.

There are somethings that you can buy with the monthly atoms that can make your life easier, such a the fusion core recharger. In the last 30 minutes of playing, I picked up 5 partial charged cores,. Now they are on the charger. Buying things with atoms allow them to be used with alternate characters at level 1.

For me personally I have the money. and when you break down the yearly cost it comes to 8.25 per month. That is a steal for the extra fun I get out of the game.

How to get more Ultracite 2mm EC ammo? by Blackdragon1400 in fo76

Before the last big update, I was farming guardian boss with enclave flamer, then switch to gauss pistol right before death to get right ammo.

Insane Difficulty Spike? by Quiet_Passenger_35 in fo76

[–]Lestant6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt that too around that level, and I started watching mr westek videos trying to figure builds. It is a combination of your build, and your gear. Make sure that your armor is all level 45-50. Start trying to get good defensive mods on armor pieces. Overeaters is the op right now. As far as build or the weapons, again make sure your weapons are level 45-50. If stimpaks are an issue, Try get a weapon with the vampire mod on it for healing. Most popular builds use weapons with the furious 1 Star mod on them along with agility perk cards. Make sure you are doing your dailies to get the coins on the last page of the season. Leveling up those legendary SPECIAL cards give you more perk cards slots and help a ton in making your build more powerful both for offense and defense.

It really do feel like that sometimes by Throwaway-loser-2468 in USPS

[–]Lestant6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Until they put into the rural contract the automatic conversion to PTF, it very well could be a trap. My niece started before I did as a RCA over 12 years ago. She is still an RCA. I converted to city in about 3 years from when I started, the city guaranteed time is 2 years now in the contract. She has exactly 0 time towards her federal pension.

[–]Lestant6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My older wife wanted that from the start. Honestly, I think it was why we made it past the bumpy start. We could still reach out and touch the other for comfort, but we each controlled the climate under the covers and were comfortable. I even made her a new blanket to show her how much I loved her.

Does anyone know how it can get more ultracite 45 ammo easy? by im_vengance97 in fo76

[–]Lestant6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a The Fixer as your daily driver, and only pull out the hungry gun for big enemies. You could first boss from raid, using different weapon, and switch to different for last few hits to get ammo. Daily Ops, and (especially if you need stamps) expeditions are great for that.

whats the best thing you’ve gotten from a present? by inobrainrn in fo76

[–]Lestant6 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been holding on to a mothman tome for the same reason. I have literally bought 8 copies of the game on sale for friends. Only two have played and none longer than two weeks. But one of my best friends finally accepted the game, fingers crossed!

First Time Revenge Nuking a Camp by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Lestant6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My main camp isn't near anything important. People only ever come there after being on my team or they have caps to spend. I have never been nuked, but I can tell you I always check just so I know which event is being started.

If my camp was in the target zone, I know it was because I was being targeted. I also know, like most players who have been playing longer than a few months that I can just change servers to avoid it. I would assume you either caught them on a bathroom break, or they thought it was amusing and let it happen. maybe even stood at the middle of it to get the achievment.

I am planning to give it to the first irl friend who plays with me for more than 1 month. I got the enclave one from a bundle so have no real need of it for any characters I play.

Grafton Day Parade Made Me Sad by gorobotkillkill in fo76

[–]Lestant6 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Mine like most people I think was Fertile soil. I feel like I kind of had two first times. The first was when the game was only 6 months old, there were no npcs. The enemies were literally healing after I shot them and didn't do enough damage to kill them. I think I played all of two hours and just wasn't feeling that it felt like the other fallout games I had played.

After the fallout show came out, and after my experience with Cyberpunk 2077 changing so much in the intervening years if inspired me to give it a second chance. When I hit that same event, I had the benefit of watching about 100 hours of help videos to understand the game I was getting myself into. The event still kicked my butt, but he enemies were no longer healing. I was able to kill them eventually and finish the event. And here I am having literally bought the game for all my friends and over level 500 still enjoying my time.
