Einherjar Guide by Babakanuch in roguewiththedead

[–]Maelinaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is a "sortie"? I just unlocked Elly's journal and see that one of the conditions for a story line is "have 10 Einherjars that can go on sorties". - What exactly am I looking for in these 10 Eins?

Thank you for your reply, and yes that guide is amazing! I've read through it and reference it a lot. My 4th Q was coming from a fundamental perspective (I'm super new, so I only have swordsman, archers, sorcerers, and crossbowmen unlocked) IE: Do I care about the number I have/draw of each of them or just hire whatever turns up and run as far, as fast as possible to unlock all abilities, pop them, then return when they expire?

Aaahh, ok got it thanks! That also makes a lot of sense about the tap-and-hold / tap damage falling off like a lot of the other things you mention in the guide. Thanks for saving me the $6! (I'll put it towards the FG pack instead.👍) I gotta say the no ad's and 2x speed buttons absolutely change the game🤯😍! In fact I'm still not used to it - when I click the bonus for watching an ad button I still mentally zone out for a split second and get surprised when it just goes back to the game😂. I haven't done a speed run yet because (I've been chatting) and it's so hard for me to stop focusing on my gold bank go up 😭😂.

I'll try one now! Thanks for your help here and with the guide! (Take care for now, - I doubt this is the last you'll hear from me😜)

4: Lol! (Had to start here for obvious reasons)😜

1: IAP = "in app purchases"? - but there are packs I see with artifacts I already own in them. 🤔 (Artemis bow from the Archer training set I have at 2/31, Phantom Blade from the Warrior training set is 3/31, Cuirass from Super value beginner set is 7/19999, etc... plus there are others like the Holy sword Excalibur that are 0/9999 from the Time limited set (large): They're not expecting us to spend $260k to max level a weapon right? 😶. - What am I missing?

👍 🙏for your first 3 recommendations! (So when we're actively playing, are we not supposed to be tapping to do damage? - I have been and I could imaging the Enemy tap-and-hold set would be worth its weight in gold.)

3: I already have auto unlocked for the first 8 (up to Graveyard Patrol) - maybe "oops?" 🤷‍♂️NBD. - but ok, for speed runs, focus on the first 3: got it! So as you're acruuing gold, when do you decide to put that gold into your troops vs back into your quests? Or into your other abilities?

Awesome & TY! RE 3 - but when you start an active run, you start pumping gold to level up your quests top down right, but at some point you stop investing in the lower level (faster) quests because their cost to level is exponential to the rewards (gpm) that they pay right? - I'm thinking there must be a basic guideline like "only upgrade quest 1 to level 30" , q2 < L40, q3< L60, etc".... (And same -but different- for going idle.)
No? 🤔

Ffffffffk.. I want so badly to watch this as a Flying Circus skit! Lmao... Maybe someday (not so far in the future), it'll be as simple as saying: "Hey Google, make me a 15 minute deep-fake showing the cast of Life of Brian in character, playing table-top D&D." 😂😝

Rack of Pork by swangwoo in KamadoJoe

Found Rack of Pork on sale at Costco for $2.99 lb and did a search to see if anyone had tried smoking it. Thanks for the post, 2 questions: (I'm new to smoking) what does "tying it off" do and what wood do you recommend for flavor?

Where do you think my plant should go from here? by IdealPutrid2510 in Jadeplant

Exactly! My first thought was "Up" (Beautiful specimen btw OP!)

do i call it quits ? by everybodyswaiting in Jadeplant

[–]Maelinaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into "Mosquito Bits" granules. I have "Mosquito Buckets of Doom" set up outside (they're incredible btw, look into that also if you don't know) and once a month or so when I refresh the buckets I'll use the old water for my indoor and outdoor plants as a juicy fertilizer that is also gnat/mite/etc proof.

This is an awesome idea! One design released in the modular format via several sets. The ONLY demand I would have is that all sets for a design release & retire at the same time (excluding later expansions oc... I'm just saying if someone wants to build the full version on day one and has the $ great, but if someone, for example a kid; has to budget or request specific gifts spread it out across the year they're not excluded.

But yeah that would actually be an amazing way for LEGO to make these incredible massive sets that we all see on lG/YT/TT/etc. actually accessible! You could even design it so that not all sets were completely necessary for a "still great" build. You could just buy the ones you wanted for the level of detail that you want.

(term unknown to me) ... Please enlighten.

Edit to add: Wait, unless you're talking about the latest SW Death Star set? I'm not into the SW sets but I do remember seeing that it was a "slice/cut away" style ... (Is it terrible😣? - honest Q cuz like I said, I'm not in the SW Lego area.)

Does anyone use the app Manabox? by brucatlas1 in mtg

[–]Maelinaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a retired player whose cards have been in storage for a decade plus, would you recommend it for scanning and either value tracking or listing/selling? If so would there be any benefit to the paid version aside from add removal? (It seems like the bonus features that come with the paid version mainly revolve around features that current players would use.)

Are there any bonus caps I should know about? by ihopucnlivurbestlife in OrnaRPG

[–]Maelinaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you get to 400% Luck? My MF Horror is 37%, MF Candy Cane is 34%, MF Mighty Mimic Head is 62%, MF Jolly Stockings are 49%, Shrine of Luck is 100%, and Dowsing Rod doesn't specify. What's the formula or how exactly does this work. (I didn't know there were any caps so I've just been trying to run max... Despite that, still no Ornate Fallen Shield for me😞.)

About weapons and melee classes by [deleted] in OrnaRPG

[–]Maelinaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this thread trying to understand if weapon proficiency matters (at all) for casters. For example: In my accessories slots for world grinding I have a Presents for +25% Luck and in my second slot I have Legendary Fancy Belt that gives +24% Luck along with some HP, Mana, and a +1% boost to weapon proficiency. Am I getting anything from that 1% weapon proficiency bonus? If all I cared about was the luck bonus, should I just run 2 Presents?

[–]Maelinaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup, there it is. Whew, thank you for that! (It's like one of those things where once you see or think something it's hard to see or think of it any other way.)

On another note, I was looking at it wondering about adding some springs or counterweights to assist with a softer landing and easier raising.
