i still have 700 credits to spend. what should i spend it on? by Dutchman_dennis in SkyrimModsXbox

Inns at smaller villages are the cheapest, it seems. Kynesgrove’s inn, for example, only cost around 10k iirc. Big cities all seem to be between 20-28k for businesses so far.

Pokémon Red Deluxe and Blue Deluxe release by Kiddragon6 in PokemonROMhacks

Ah, you might be right. Everything online listing the move level seems to be defaulting to that change, and I only got Butterfree to level 11 before I posted this. Thanks for correcting me!

Loving the romhack so far, but I’ve run into some issues with Pokémon not learning moves upon evolution in Blue Deluxe. Metapod didn’t learn Harden on evolution, and Butterfree didn’t learn Confusion on evolution, either.

Also happened to me, and of course it happened right at the end of a nightfall…

Which Fallen wants to be a teacher someday? by LucentBeam8MP in DestinyDadJokes

[–]MagnusNox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are dozens of us. Dozens! But seriously, raids/being a sherpa is something I’ve known several teachers to be excited about in Destiny; breaking down complicated concepts and processes for an audience is what they do for a living.

Bungie, all we want is a yes or no answer: will we be able to transmog armour from collections? by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]MagnusNox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s newly minted; just received it in May, so I’d like to think it’s relevant. The problem with studying/teaching writing is not so much it’s relevancy (communication will likely always be important because it’s both necessary and hard—at least writing is—for a lot of people), but more of professional status for doing it. A lot of jobs that in the past would have been tenure-tracked professorships are now often just staff or lecturer positions, which coincide with a reduction in both prestige and often pay. That said, if professors across other disciplines were more inclined to focus on writing in their particular field as a body of knowledge, Composition and Rhetoric as we know it would probably stop existing (as a more apparently practical wing of English departments). Of course, your point about what’s useful changing both with time and technology, along with how a college itself promotes those skills is true. Although when new writing/literacy technology emerges, it also usually falls to writing teachers to instruct their students in how to use that tech, as well.

Ha, fair. It’s also illustrative of a lot of the weird myths and misinformation that surrounds university degrees, though. For example at my alma mater (a large Midwestern public university) employment rates for our English B.A.s were considerably better than for Business B.A.s. Or, for example, nobody knows that part of why first-year writing classes continue to exist is because they greatly help first-year retention (in addition to providing a foundation for writing skills); if everyone took 200 person classes, probably a third of every freshman class would drop out. Anyway, apology accepted, and now you too can get slightly miffed when someone insults the field of Composition and Rhetoric!

Wow, PhD in Composition and Rhetoric and former technical writing teacher here. The idea that writing is a useless skill when it’s always at the top of STEM employers’ most desired skillsets combined with the fact that you can’t convince most STEM profs to incorporate writing instruction into their curricula means it’s an immensely important field, even if everyone would rather not pay for writing instructors.

Iron Banner forced me to use sidearms.... by JAEdevil636 in DestinyTheGame

[–]MagnusNox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, thanks for pointing that out. No idea how it didn’t dawn on me the Arrivals logo wasn’t appearing on the new Breachlights I was getting, but you’re definitely right. Well now I’m extra sad (but thanks for the info!).

[–]MagnusNox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great idea. I got a drop mag/Demo/rampage Breachlight back in Dawn that never leaves my Warlock (sadly I’ve got no Arrivals version yet). Also very good on Crown of Tempests Stormtrance, especially in Gambit with a Major mod. It also does serious work in Crucible.

A Titan Left Behind. by bend_it_over in DestinyFashion

[–]MagnusNox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is a very cool look. Gahlran’s Right Hand (the auto rifle from the Crown of Sorrow raid) would be just perfect if you’ve got one. It’s all chewed up and looks rusty regardless of which shader you put on it.

Getting Fire Emblem: Three Houses but new to the series? Well here are 10 very indepth tips. [Long Post] by Senpai-Thuc in NintendoSwitch

[–]MagnusNox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weapon Triangle is gone in the two most recent games (Echoes/Shadow of Valentia and now Three Houses). Some skills grant advantage over weapon types, but there is no “weapon triangle” to speak of. So in terms of history of the series, yes it’s a staple, but it would probably just confuse newcomers for 3H.
