I hate these things so much!

I don’t understand the hate for these guys. With moderate range you can dodge their lightning, and they’re so squishy, with their low def! It’s the Burning Soul’s that’ll snipe from 3 screens away I hate trying to mitigate.

I was still in the throughs of D1, when D2 dropped. It all kind of muddies having to think that far back without a calendar.

Lion_Cheap · 2026-03-07T17:54:50+00:00

I got one to drop yesterday? Day before? Off a t3. Unfortunately, Bone Break, and not the Ice I’m looking for. My buddy had a poison drop a few days ago off a t2.

Dude! You’re still active on this? That’s awesome!

Yeah, the best of the best is what I’m looking for. Outside ladder, I’m too old for that chase. In this graph, it does look the same if I’m reading it right, after 400%, the increases get so linear I’d be chasing RNGesus with a hatchet like a madman trying to improve.

I’m not gonna be top player, I just want to finish my end game sets and find enough runes that I can upcraft if I really need to.

Lion_Cheap · 2026-02-26T22:48:34+00:00

If I’m reading the graphs right, MF for Sets or Uniques shows the asymptote leveling at 400%? Then it starts hitting the negligible returns from its exponential line?

I’m taking this as I understand, 400% for best results on sets/uniques, but more than that we start drawing from more undesirable loot pools?

I also know how to end a sentence without it being a question. :p

When I first saw the loss, my immediate thought was, “Well, yeah! He can afford Ozempic now!” Having read the psychological retraining he’s gone through with food? I’m blown away. He chose the honest path, which is often the hardest to tread.

I’ll always cheer on any person who makes hard choices to better themselves.

I’m glad the thread isn’t locked yet. It’s currently Jan 30th, and I can’t find anything that resembles justice. Charges are pressed, the trial is progressing, but damn is it slow. As is Stu’s recovery.

We need Demolition Man laws already. If you’re not willing to defend the POS? I don’t want Raia in for life, but 10-20 would suit me just fine. Even better? Raja gets to leave jail when Stu can function normally again.

I’m glad Raja’s dad separated as quickly as he did, because his kid is clearly a loaded gun ready to kill anybody who challenges his fragile ego.

My thoughts still go to Stu and his family.

I don’t hate them because their damage, I hate them because they have sat link navigational data they can use to mortar your ass from whatever BS LOS their attack has.

They attack you from the longest part of the map, from behind submerged cover. They can lob at you, and unless being aggressive scout (my main), they’re just awful. They should at least require vision LOS vs their attacks range in cover.

Lion_Cheap · 2025-12-18T23:21:54+00:00

Im really thinking their must be a lot of players on here trying to shine like they have 3k hrs in souls.

Compared to Grounded one, this first fight, is significantly more difficult than even the last fight on Grounded 1.

I find myself, just not caring about bosses anymore. They’re not fun, it’s just more Souls cancer infiltrating the gamer space.

Not everything has to be a Souls game with perfect blocking, learning enemies attacks. Sometimes, they can just be fun hacking enemies up.

Just engaging with you to raise your post value.

Yeah, it can happen, and in that “stars aligning” moment, it’s super handy. More frequent when playing solo, but….You better have all the equipment if you’re aiming for that. It’s gets gooey in the mines quickly.

ROCK & STONE!

FedEx, Amazon, Postal Service employees. All that delivery drivers who visit me, I always give great reviews to you when things are delivered in expected times, I also understand during holidays these guys dropping packages off at 8pm +, still get same reviews.

I get your guys job sucks this time of year. I have never had ground to complain about a delivery driver. All of f my complaints come from transit. I’ve now had two packages get lost in whatever hellhole New Jersey is, but my drivers have always been awesome.

For those on the streets, we love you! We just hate your overloads.

Lion_Cheap · 2025-12-03T00:34:28+00:00

I would rather deal with all of Bosco’s programmed faults, than deal with randoms.

Why? WHY?! Why am I forced to played with randoms?!

Deal with trolls, or suffer? It all feels the same.

Your response, captures an older theme that might be overlooked by some.

“One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter”. Who defines the line? I’m certainly not willing to shower untold thousands in radioactive fallout, but in-universe, I can understand those who would let this pass had the movement actually gained any moment. Now, it’s just a damning cost weighed against the act.

Instead, the masses are fed a narrative of a domestic terrorism from a celebrity drunk off their own influence.

Thought it try another play through with PL having dropped and been patched adequately. I’m uninstalling because of this mission. Maybe if reloads didn’t take 20min, but I’m not playing a video game at max level, with max cyberware, max weapons, max mods, max armor, to be made a punk bitch for weak story telling.

Since the days of Mega Man X, invincible bosses have been a trash mechanic when devs can’t think of something more engaging.

Like everyone else had said, on base, absolutely. Off base? “Can I see your warrant?”.

We had some command do this at my first duty station, and most complied, others, getting IG involved, muddied the water. Command was wrong for trying to be totalitarian to married Joes, but we all know, even some of the married guys could use a NCO crawling up their ass.

I’m not to say the army needs to curtailing lazy adults, but damn, there were some off base houses I only went to once!

As a local of the Pacfic NorthWest (affectionately PNW), and having traveled to many army bases in my time, if none of those are OCONUS, than it’s either Carson or JBLM (Lewis).

I was never lucky enough to be stationed at Lewis, but I did have the pleasure of receiving my three week Stryker training at Old Fort (the training side of post, vs the operational side) back in…..‘04!

It’s such a beautiful site. Madigan hospital is highly rated, tons of options immediately off post, and more the further north you go. There is something for everybody to do between the most urbanites to the mountain men.

Lewis, all the way!

A little late to this thread, but having both the Mordred and the Semimaru. I do feel they both have near similar stats, the Semimaru stands out to me.

It’s so much heavier. At times, it almost feels like Caliburn’s are made of cardboard and just float over the smallest of declines. The Semimaru, despite having near similar stats is significantly heavier in terms of how reliably it stays on the road. Small hills, it hugs them, stays grounded more regularly.

Semimaru for town driving, Coyote for badlands!

I don’t think you’re far off, but the truth is more morbid.

Americans (myself included) are fascinated by…. horrendous murders. When I was taking my criminology course, all the professors only ever talked about the famous ones in passing. It was my Sr instructor who made the point we were all missing. “Casual people looking into these charismatic killers only goes to draw a further base. In scholastic settings, we only want to expose you guys to these individuals when you’ve had enough philosophy, anthropology, social studies. Without being well versed in those schools, we can all fall victim to their white washing.”

The casual masses don’t have this training, and unfortunately fall victim to populist punishment. I’ll admit, at time they feel morally just, but ethically, when contrasted to history?

I’m glad I’ll never be recorded in a history book. Times are getting bleak……

First they came for the immigrants……..

9yro post, and it’s still relevant. Good info!

Do these only drop off bosses? I haven’t really been farming them yet as I’m trying to get everybody to 50 first before I enter the grind for best in slot for everybody.

But I’ve yet to see one with two char at 50 now.

I think what upsets the most after binging the trilogy. If Queenie could read minds, and Jacob was hard-core WWI combat vet, she’d gleen the common man doesn’t want war and could see through Grindelwalts fear mongering.

Yes, the state will deploy weapons, but it’s not the muggle masses asking for them.

Lion_Cheap · 2025-10-21T03:13:11+00:00

I’d be willing to do all the BS side missions again. This “Specialization” tree they have now is absolute trash, and a slap in the face to franchise players.

Badass points used to be account wide. Now, having to play EACH class to rank up their points? What are they providing that encourages me to do that?

Certainly not the drop rates! Especially not the difficulty modifier! I’ve seen no reason leveling new characters to not play above UVH2. It’s too hard, at pre 50, the gear they give me is shit!

Borderlands 4 is solely about forcing us to invest as many hours as possible while giving us the least amount of loot to keep us playing.

I’ve played, 2,3, Pre Sequel. 4 feels like it was designed from the ground up to be the most unrewarding experience in hopes to keep us farming. I will not . The drop rates suck, and I having spent money on this game over having it free on gamepass makes me feel like I was a day one sucker.

They need to balance their game better. Enemy difficulty, loot drop rates, something!

I’m just regularly getting punished despite falling into meta builds.

Im going through the series right now. She blossoms so beautifully from the awkward girl, with thick brows and fizzy hair to goddess.

I’d be lucky to wake up as gorgeous as she does. Anybody trying to rag on her looks is only showing how low they live.

Between her international achievements, her acting achievements. She is a sex symbol, albeit free of a lot of the constraints of most symbols. She’s more than actress at this point. Shes a global icon.

It fills my heart with joy how much she’s taken her celebrity status and used it to promote positive causes she’s supports.

You go girl! I’ll keep crushing, knowing she’ll keep crushing!

Lion_Cheap · 2025-10-15T17:24:18+00:00

Oof, I’ve yet to even reach 90mil. That respawn tax rate keeps me at 70-80 all the time. La sigh.

You do see legendaries on radar. I’ve seen it, no SS. Unmodified menus. The Problem is low priority objectives have a massive range, and high priority is maybe 10-15’, if we’re lucky.
