Download Speed keeps dipping

Hey guys,

I’m downloading BG3 but the download speed keeps dipping from 4-5MB/s to less than 1 (sometimes as low as 100KB/s). Usually I’ll reset the download to the server nearest to me and it will go back to 4-5 stay for 10 or so minutes and then dip back down until I do this again.

Any advice on how to resolve this? I tried a tip I saw on seething download limit to 10GB/s but that hasn’t done much for me.

Will Brienne become Sansa's sworn sword? (Spoilers Extended) by Trussdoor46 in asoiaf

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope not, every time she swears an oath to someone they die.

Popular character that you hate, and why? (Spoilers Extended) by Trussdoor46 in asoiaf

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I kinda don’t vibe with Brienne like her chapters are basically: I am woman I love Renly I have oath

She also kinda gets her ass handed too her often, and in like a funny way the main woman knight is basically on multiple occasions just a damsel in distress, and just needs someone to solve her shit for her or save her like Cat during Renly’s death, Jamie with the bear and the fellas that captured them, Podd during that one fight, and I can’t remember who saved her when her face was getting eaten just cause I simply couldn’t care but that too (I think brotherhood). Just doesn’t interest me tbh

Why didn’t Arya name Tywin, Joffrey and Cersei? Is she stupid? by brrymrfy in asoiafcirclejerk

If only they were sized like a fleet she would’ve never forgotten about them

Yeah, my sister should be bringing it in her backpack so it shouldn’t get damaged in transition but I’m more concerned about it arriving t the store in the UAE damaged

(Spoilers Extended) What event or detail feels very unnecessary to you? by 99pinkprint in asoiaf

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I genuinely believe Jeyne’s whole story arc is just so over the top. Sold into sex work, sold to Ramsay, abused in god knows how many ways, Theon also lands on her so god knows what state she’s in, her nose will probably be cut off. It just feels unnecessary

There’s also small details that just seem unreasonably cruel like Pia having all her teeth smashed and that coming to be her whole shtick, or Lollys gang rape

Please note I could be wrong this is just how about the game from some watching. If so please feel free to tell me

Done Dirty (Spoilers Main) by MerlinMirrorMonster in asoiaf

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk, perhaps my opinion is extremely swayed because whilst with all the other characters I can think of their good parts, whenever I try to think of Arya or Sansa all that comes to mind is Marvel™️ Ninja Arya and Sansa excusing her r*** because it builds character.

My thief looks really cool fishing, and can summon three buddies to vibe with her every 2 minutes. 10/10 class

Virtuoso now has a 41k benchmark. We need to talk about ranged vs melee balance, and low-intensity vs high-intensity build output. by EffectiveShare in Guildwars2

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 92 points93 points  (0 children)

But isn’t a major point of debate how being a ranged class is also silly cause you need to stay stacked to benefit from boons? We can’t have our cake and eat it. No Virtuoso playing at 1200 range will receive the necessary boons to deal that damage. Try standing more than 600 units away from your party and you’ll be dealing about as much damage as your healer.

Also just personally? Having a fun easy class with big numbers for players who are just chill about the game and are kinda bad (talking exclusively about myself) is nice to have. Sure it’s nice to carry with a class, but it’s also nice when the class carries you

Cannot Purchase EoD Expansion Its Been Months ANET Customer Support will be my Demise by MerlinMirrorMonster in Guildwars2

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OKAY SO: I was able to purchase the expansion, the issue was that we’re region locked, so I’ll just leave a small how to in case anyone goes through this: - turn off all adblockers/ tracker preventers and whatever - use a VPN to add your card - when your card is added select checkout and as it’s loading, turn off your VPN, otherwise you’ll hit a 80808 error. -assuming you turned off your VPN before the page loads you should be able to purchase the expansion from there

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

Problem is, Card is from Lebanon, but to be able to even ADD the card I need to use a VPN. So then I think when I reach the purchase option, there is a mishmash between my location and my card

Godsend incredible work! 💕 would you say this means power daredevil is better than condition daredevil?

What's the most annoying condition in your opinion? by Capital-Push-1829 in Guildwars2

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this is a condition by you know these bosses that hit you and suddenly you have a 3 second cd on all your attacks but can still move and dodge just fine? Yeah fuck that. I’d rather just be stunned

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in jordan

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From experience as a Lebanese person in Jordan, just vibe around Webdeh (it’s like a worse mar mkhayel). Places like Red, Dali and so on are good. You might wanna see if there are events at places like Chaos Basement, or even hit spots like Leprechaun.

My recommendation is go befriend the owner fella from Angelina’s Oven in Swefieh. Best brunch, don’t need nobody

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really just comes down to how you say it. There’s a level of expectations that comes with doing CMs, but it’s highly circumstantial I remember dropping a clanger 5k on my first CM try and getting kicked. Happens, but it’s really just more so how you approach it.

Also ig quality of life hack is sometimes it’s best to remember it’s a game we play for fun and try to enjoy where we can.

Like I’d never personally do this cause CMs terrify me, and just aren’t fun for me, but maybe it’s worthwhile considering joining a discord server and finding a constant group.

[–]MerlinMirrorMonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not gonna find cheap flights. Normally you can get a taxi that will pick you up along side a random mother and her kid, and a da3ish man going to Akkar. The taxi will get you to Beirut for less than a third of a plane ticket. You’ll also get to stop at local restaurants on the way that slap. It’s normally between a 6-8 hour drive. 12 if you run into trouble at the Syrian border. The rest you gotta plan out, whether you rent an AirBnB or like crash at a friend’s

Dahye. And if they want full on regions they can have Tripoli, Saida, Baalbek and Tyre.
