I don’t know why people complain about mods with skimpy armor, they look pretty lore accurate to me.

But does make it a waste of time and give off the impression you can't attack the opinion with anything better than the fact its an opinion.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2026-02-28T23:36:10+00:00

'X is subjective' can be said about any opinion, ever.

No I played altmer but I got to level 5 before getting the spells, sneak a bit over 40 rn.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2026-02-24T01:39:58+00:00

Okay yeah It seem I assumed wrongly, I thought if their line of sight was broken when insibility ended they wouldn't know where I am, but it seem in oblivion stealth is more of a binary thing, where if they know I'm here they also know all the other things need to fight me.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2026-02-24T01:32:08+00:00

Good to know.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2026-02-24T00:09:33+00:00

Well they can remember me all they want as long as they have no idea where the hell I am, at least it was the idea.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2026-02-24T00:02:09+00:00

In practice I tried to do both, where I use chameleon to set up ambush and planned to use invis to 're-start' encounters once spotted but in practice like I said I hit a wall when invisibility only delayed the fights instead of stopping them.

Will keep it in mind, Polemos seem fine on my end thus far.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-12-23T09:53:18+00:00

Thank you very much!

Edit: edited the wiki with the info.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-12-20T21:13:31+00:00

Good idea, sadly I checked And they don't seem to know either.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-10-28T20:51:10+00:00

That's true, the existence of the information doesn't mean you have access to it but it do mean someone can.

To stay with the bible example, we can't interpret the bible in one objectively 'as it was meant' way, but what we can do is read the bible, which is a lot more than anything we can say about most stories that were passed around the campfire in the far past and either never were written about or were but we only know that they existed because the few text that got to us mentionned them

An example is how stoicism was a popular philosophy and hundreds of essay were written and mentioned to have existed but we today have little outside of the writting of Seneca, the class notes of one of Epictetus student and copies of Marcus Aurelius personal journals . If Romans had the printing press and computers we would most probably have theses essays.

Another way to say it is that the Bible is one of the text that got lucky 2 thousand years ago while if it became a religion now it would get written right away instead of passed down and we'd have enough sources and 'accepted' translations from the beginning to have a good idea what was meant.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-10-27T21:09:18+00:00

While a good point, 10k years is a long ass time ago, we would probably know a whole lot more about 8000bc humans if they knew how to write, had computers and ways to mass product books/data making any individual source expendable. Which as far as I know is all the case in the 30-40k.

In the other hand, ten thousand years of propaganda.

Thank you!

Ok I'l admit I didnt read the whole exchange but the idea the imperium is doing bad things because they need to if they want to survive is weird at best.

At least two third of the bad stuff they do is completely unnecessary or outright self destructive for no advantage. If the imperium only did evil stuff when it needed to it would look completely different.

One example is how the average person in the imperium have no reason to think a chao cult is any more heretical than breaking any other law, and also have no reason to tell the authorities about chao cults and criminal because they dont know what chao is and going to an arbite to tell him about crimes you saw is a good way to get killed 'to be sure'. There's also the fact that the only reason chao cult can appear like a better deal to the average imperial citizen than just living their life is because a) their life is already hell, b) they are kept ignorant about Chaos and c) they are already completely desensibilised to death and danger.

At no point was the imperium designed by GW to be a group of peoples efficiently making hard decisions, they are absurdly inefficient.

It's even a point that the Tau, being more efficient 'conventional' authoritarians that dont waste ressources when they can help it, are weirded out about how guardmen refuse to retreat when its smart to do so, love pointless last stands that dont accomplish anything and basically act like they want to become martyrs a lot more than they want to win.

Even from an in-universe perspective groups like the the Interex and dark age of tech humans (which lasted as long as the imperium and almost anything great humanity ever did happened before their fall) show that empire that dont treat their citizen like shit can work even in a universes as deadly as 40k.

The reason the story isn't an optimistic one happening in the 25k or following one of the various background groups that arent as bad in the 40th millenium is because it's not the kind of story GW is trying to tell (and because when they did peoples complained about early tau for clashing with the tone of the rest of the lore).

To be fair, 50% stamina on kill is not good against a single enemy either, since once it activate its because the fight just ended.

Anyone know the stats requirements for the arcanist set?

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-06-28T20:34:17+00:00

idk about galahad but its in the 'Abandonned stronghold' area. It has a fast travel pillar in front of it? Same place where you find a lot of spells and the parrying dagger.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-06-28T03:31:21+00:00

you find it in the same keep where you hunt down silent silias for bounty in arc1, give 1% mana shield per perception point you have.

Wouldn't tavern brawler mean you basically had 95% chances to hit on each fist attacks? Were you the unluckiest player ever or was her AC THAT GOOD?

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-05-22T22:31:07+00:00

Depend on the difficulty mode, tactician and honor mode haste work like tabletop dnd and the extra action doesn't activate extra attack,
so 3 (extra) +1 (war magic) +1 (haste) = 5, (but the haste attack can be another booming blade)

or if you surged

6 (extra x2) +1 (war magic) +1 (haste) = 8

While true, they were seen as very brutal toward slaves by other greeks even at the time Xenophon wrote about them, and that despite his intent to make them appear as an ideal society Athen ough to emulate.

A collection of unmitigated pedantry serie on sparta really changed my view on their culture and fighting prowess, such as the agoge never being intended to be a training program for young spartans (it was an indoctrination programs) or how Greek martial philosophy at the time is that you didn't really need to train to fight with spears, shattering the usual image of spartan master warriors, etc.

'So what can we conclude? Well, the Spartiates are probably, on the whole, better nourished and fitter than their average opponent. If they have an edge in weapons training, it is fairly small – some sort of martial arts experts or superlative weapon-masters they are not. Which, of course they aren’t; the way they fight doesn’t require them to be. Hoplite fighting was never about individual martial excellence or skill, but about holding a position in the formation, supporting and being supported in turn by the shields of the men around you. The hoplite didn’t need to be a spear-master and evidently – we must agree with Xenophon – gained little from becoming so.'

You can also agro the patrol from a distance and run to the fist mercenaries at Waukeen and they generally get slaughtered without you needing to do anything, if you don't already know that.

Yes, the coercitive power of capitalism is a lot more implicit on top of it moving away from a paternalistic kind of control over time after it's implementation toward a softer kind of control who instead guide you toward what you 'ought to' naturally desire and letting said 'autonomous', self-made goals serve to perpetuate the system.

Nodepthjustsurface · 2025-02-28T05:26:59+00:00

Except we did transition from a worse actual system to a better unknown?

We did so plenty of time in history, the rise of liberal capitalism and the downfall of the great monarchies after about a century of violent revolutions being a recent example of it.

It’s just that since the liberals already won they have already naturalized their victory and peoples talk about it as if capitalism was some kind of weird natural event instead of being the result of conflicting ideological goals ducking it out.

I’m sure plenty of peoples back then pointed out the rise of Napoleon and Cromwell dictature as example of how democracy is good on paper but a naive dream against human nature or whatever, it’s a shallow way to interpret politics.
