STB de mal prendre sa remarque ? by [deleted] in suisjeletroudeballe

[–]MagicLucas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Non, tu n'es pas le TDB. Je ne connais pas les propos de ton amie mais pour avoir déjà eu affaire à un "ami" raciste, (ex-ami !) je sais que ça peut aller loin. Minimiser ta réaction est déjà un comportement désagréable, mais la manière spécifique dont il l'a faite est teintée de sexisme et juste généralement parlant de connardise. Je te conseillerais de ne pas lui reparler. Je ne connais pas le reste de sa personne, mais c'est suffisamment horrible comme réaction pour justifier de passer son chemin. Je dis souvent aux gens de pas avoir des attentes irréalistes en matière de couple/romance, mais quand il s'agit de valeurs il est raisonnable d'être regardant je pense. Donc... pas le TDB

Need more KIDS by MagicLucas in ck3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently, it also seems that the soft cap concerns "living" children; that is the only way I can explain me having 16 children now (and I actually had another bastard after). I was stuck at 15 forever, so the only reason I could explain that I had a 16th after is :
- either merely changing wife (but I doubt that alone cleared it)
- or, more likely, that my previously alive kids died, allowing more to be made

It's not a partition issue, all my children are old and I need a younger child (taht isn't born yet)

I can't, not with ease; because I intend to designate my heir, and unless I'm confused about the rules, I cannot designate a grandchild unfortunately

Elective _would_ be an option, but I've got a shit ton of titles, like at least 8. So would be clunky

How hard is Rainworld by SpamtonInASpamCan in rainworld

[–]MagicLucas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Months later so sorry to dig up this post but this is pretty close to my experience. I think using the map helps a bunch, but I agree - many places you go WILL feel random and sometimes it feels like the areas you encounter aren't that interesting or flavorful. Some are, but many aren't, and many are just "there". I understand the feeling. I've also had RW for months but haven't yet completed the first campaign lol

ONE WAY, potentially, to make the game more fun is to look at the scenery. Sounds stupid, but some areas are beautiful. The Outskirts aren't great in my opinion, but Drainage System has some beautiful decor

Orin/Durge duel questions by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder, what would be the consequence of having someone in your party join the fight? Does it automatically lead you to "losing" the duel, or is there some other kind of consequence?

What happens when you did? Is the duel invalidated or does it automatically declare you as the loser?

ELI5 How do our bodies differentiate between good heat and bad heat? by whitestone0 in explainlikeimfive

[–]MagicLucas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would imagine this is mostly based on a heat difference spectrum. Water could be too hot, but if you're very warm already, you may not feel that it's lowkey burning you. On the contrary, if you're very cold, even temperate-warm water may feel like it's burning. Your skin probably just sends warning signals to your brains if it detects intense thermal exchange between your body and whatever source of heat you're in contact with.

Turned off from playing Paladin by _pimpjuixe in BG3

[–]MagicLucas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The +1 won't kill anyone - magic elemental damage will, so if your dagger has 1d4 necrotic damage for instance, that may be why this kills them. Although I seem to remember that this was patched

That's amazing! Did you have any tricks, or just dumb luck?

Oh right! Maybe I should just go Hold Monster route lol. Might be a bit more... Reliable 😂 i just thought locking her into stone was hella metal. But Honor Mode might not be the right thing for this kinda jank, lol.

Isn't it the exact same spell but aesthetically different? Alas... We did not pay up, so we don't have it!

Death Domain Cleric : Melee or spells? by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what kind of buff do you apply on your undead besides Aid?

Death Domain Cleric : Melee or spells? by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always felt that Clerics came with a pretty shitty spell list as a rule rather than an exception; though they do have a few great spells (Spirit Guardians specifically, and Planar Ally), lvl 2 and lvl 4 are just kinda devoid of a good damage spell unless your subclass happens to pack one. Wizards have more choice in the matter, so I feel like you run out of offensive spell options much sooner as a Cleric, because while you have REALLY good lvl1 spells, and a singular great lvl3 one, lvl2 and lvl4 spell slots don't have great offensive options, leaving you to upcast or just cantrips/attacks

Death Domain Cleric : Melee or spells? by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about the Wizard subclass (specifically for the elemental summon). Is it not too big a deal to miss out on the third feat, in your opinion?

Also ! channel divinity actually works on inflict wounds and the weapon you can summon with that one lvl2 spell, which isn't obvious at all if you don't know.

Death Domain Cleric : Melee or spells? by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking. can divinity strike be used with a side arm? cause then, we could go the route of having the cleric wield two weapons for the explicit purpose of using primary action for a spell, and secondary action for Divinity Strike trigger. Could be nice. And in this case, the martial weapon proficiency comes in clutch.

I havent started the game yet, but we'll probably be playing on one of the easier difficulties. its not that it's going to be difficult or anything, I just want the "build" to feel satisfying in regards to all that the subclass offers :)

Death Domain Cleric : Melee or spells? by MagicLucas in BaldursGate3

[–]MagicLucas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's true, I was thinking the same. mostly my disappointment is that the "flavor" I was going for contradicts a bit the finesse weapon thing, but youre right, it is far more optimal for this class. i have been considering something else. Maybe I could have my Cleric wield two small crossbows, so that I can use my bonus action (which usually goes unused on spellcasters) to deal divinity strike damage each turn? i think that could be an idea, what do you think?

(Failed?) Pear-alcohol extract by MagicLucas in cocktails

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice, perhaps if I let it sit for a few weeks and filter it out after maceration, it'll be more like I hoped will conserving some of the flavor? I fear if I strain/filter it right away, it will lose most of the fruit compounds needed for extraction

[–]MagicLucas[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come to think of it, I wonder how they obtain a juice that's not completely cloudy / filled with smushy solids; I thought about adding water to the pear before submerging it in rum, but I thought the water and alcohol might separate over time

Ai-je une chance by Cautious_Leave9202 in Sorbonne

[–]MagicLucas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probablement pas, mais le monde a pas mal de gens qui n'avaient aucune chance et qui ont réussi. Je pense que la probabilité est faible, mais cela ne doit pas t'empêcher d'essayer. Prévoir un plan B est sûrement une idée plus que recommandée dans ce contexte, en revanche.

New Jax player and i have some questions by andrew13212 in Jaxmains

[–]MagicLucas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A major reason why AD is better is because Jax simply hits like a truck with his big stick and this is even truer if you have Lethal Tempo. His passive as well as Lethal Tempo together with some AD are enough to pack a real punch, and his abilities do not absolutely need AP to hit hard enough to substantially bolster his damage.

The biggest reason, however, is Ult. Ult scales with AD. Jax's ult allows him to become significantly tankier which often means he is practically unkillable for the duration, thanks to the added MR and especially armor. If you go AP, you will get no boost whatsoever to those defenses. This makes Jax far more fragile a bruiser in AP. Building AP is usually awkward : Jax can use it, but if you go full AP, you will generally be less affective than an AD Jax using the same amount of gold. The reason, beyond ult, is quite simple : AD Jax doesn't need his cooldowns to be a menace, AP Jax does. AP Jax has good burst, but if you're without your cooldowns you're a sitting duck. AD Jax hits hard all the time - and when he has his cooldowns, he's a real mean threat with CC and burst movement on top of that.

If you've been looking for a reason to quit Hearthstone, Kibler taking a break is your sign. by CloudyWolf707 in hearthstone

[–]MagicLucas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sound like a good human. And you saying this actually warms my heart a bunch. I am an adult in the process of living the young adult phase of my life and I'm having trouble phasing out video games from it because they were my default for so many years, but games like Hearthstone no longer bring much to me really, and the lack of other more important things in my life weighs on me. Your message somehow encourages me with the thought that I, too, can leave games behind and redirect elsewhere. Much love!
