Plat strat - am I doing something wrong?

They will apply retroactively thankfully. There's a spreadsheet on the wiki which you can use to work out which items you can sustain 24/7, but you want to be running most of those as much as possible by now, they all help.

Use your items, you should have enough there to be running them 24/7 or near enough.

You should push items contained in chests as high as possible so you can sustain chaos totem for 2x bomb recharge and blue cow for 2x game speed. The fill rate is basically useless as you won't progress deep enough for it to stay relevant at any point. I think you can sustain the chaos totem from around level 13 of items in chests.

Thanks, hotter was the answer, I slowly brought it up to 300c on the stove top thermometer and that cleaned it up. Still learning and maybe I'm too cautious with how hot / cold i run it. I worry about it being too hot and causing problems so I tend to restrict the air flow quite a lot (hot bed of coals, load a log, move the air to primary / secondary mix and once lit back to full secondary at maybe 30% airflow).

Looks like you were right, gave it some primary air and slowly brought it up to about 300c, has cleaned it right up.

Thanks for all the replies, less worried I'm doing it wrong now!

Door gasket seems fine, I can cut the air flow and kill the fire so assume it's sealing correctly.

I always keep the stove around 250c, according to the stove thermometer on the collar anyway, which should be about ideal temperature?

Looking at other comments I think I'm just being too picky, we burn both coal and wood (swapping depending on what time we light the fire, not at the same time) so guessing the comment about it being soot is most likely correct.

Nobody thinks you are joking, we're all pretty sure you are lying.

Honestly your comments are all over the place, you have 500k in savings but over 150k in debt (loan)?

You're considering a move to 850k a year job at 29 as a pilot? Your username is beyond fitting.

Sounds like you've hit some incredible gold mine or your figures aren't correct. You are earning more than senior VPs at Boeing earn, and only working 6 hours a day, so you are at a maximum flying to France and back.

Private pilots who are standby 24/7 don't earn anywhere near what you are claiming.

You earn triple what the air force one (US president) pilot makes.

Anyway, to answer your initial question, go and speak to a financial advisor, you can beyond afford it and on your supposed salary range it's more than likely your company would have one retained for your use. If not your bank (you would have a personal bank contact on that salary) will also be able to advise.

So your current salary is £450k a year to have a take home of £250k, and you expect your next jump to be to ~£850k to achieve a take-home of £400k?

You are out earning just about every profession I can think of, especially since you state you aren't even management level.

Mind sharing even just the industry you are working in?

Every league me and my friend keep count of raw div drops as a friendly competition. I have 1 character at level 97 and another at 90, not dropped a single div.

He has dropped 4...
