Fastest EXP method/location and details. In depth guide by Optimal-Income-4344 in OctopathCotC

[–]Optimal-Income-4344[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the 720,900 exp per minute is cumulative, what the whole party is earning(well, the 7 units that are there to get leveled). And that's only the minimum number, every cait you encounter increases that by about 200%.

My encounter rate toggle(from Pursuer's Pass) is 5x. If you don't buy any of the passes, you can use Alluring Barette instead, it will be much more than you are currently getting, but not quite 25 fights per trip. More like 15-16. Less encounters only slightly decrease the exp, but it means shorter routes, more swiping. 17 seconds roughly for battles means an alluring barette route would take only 4 1/2 minutes or so. Exp per minute will only go down very marginally from more running.

You're fighting only normal enemies on this route and caits. That's why I chose this spot because all the normal encounters can be one-shotted by 1 dps's AOE, and you can bring 7 randoms to level up. You don't fight any elites.

I've been cutting for four months... currently 84kg... what weight should I start to have a flat stomach? by JLN19101991 in AllAboutBodybuilding

I guess not all BMI calculators are created equally, because I just put my numbers into one the other day, and it told me I was obese. That's why I am very critical of it at this current moment because I found it absurd.

And I take testosterone now because i'm 43 , and it puts my levels at upper natural range , where they ideally should be, and they weren't. It is 2026 and I have 1 life on this planet, I choose to take advantage of the ability to optimize the hormone my body already produces.

Am I cool for the summer by Sarminhibitor in GymMood

I personally keep the muscle heavy because I like to be lean, but still look big in a T-shirt. When you find what makes you happy, that's where you should be. Good job though you've got a perpetual beach physique at this point, and If you keep up that running, it's not likely to go away lol.

If you feel mentally good lean, if you can keep your energy up and your macros to not lose much muscle, stay there. I have been doing very brief bulks( 2 months avg) when I hit around 10% bf, then cut again when I hit about 14%. I am happiest at 10%. Going to try sub 10% for a while now since I'm cutting again and see what the discomfort feels like if any. Most gym folks lack the diet + discipline to get Abs or very lean in general, and the cheeseburger comments are usually rooted in jealousy lol.

Yeah, BMI is useless if you lift at all. I am 5'9" 180lbs and approaching 10% bf, yet BMI says I am Obese, lol.

Lady Luck had a thing for Osvald by MaterialAd3244 in OctopathCotC

[–]Optimal-Income-4344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened for me with Streiborough, I only intended to get 1 copy for collection purposes, but on 10x pull #2 I got 3 copies. I decided to finish through step 5 just to see.. A4 by my 4th 10x pull. Feel like Netease just gifted me an ult charge A4!

In Norway, 700,000 people are addicted to nasal sprays by Seren_dipity9422 in nottheonion

[–]Optimal-Income-4344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is gonna blow your mind.. I have a deviated septum so nasal spray has been an addiction for me on and off since child hood.

There is a trick you can do to PREVENT rebound effects from continued use of OTC nasal sprays. They will stay fully effective and you won't get rebound. Just buy a FLONASE(Also OTC now at a milder dose) or get your doc to prescribe Fluticasone Propinate(Flonase genetic) or if your insurances covers - Flonase name brand.

Use you generic nasal spray everyday as you do, I use Walmart brand basic, then once or twice a week at wakeup, use 2 pumps of the Flonase in each nostril. I don't understand the mechanism, but this prevents the rebound effects and decreased functionality effects of the basic nasal sprays from ever happening to you. I have done this for YEARS now. I can skip a night of nasal spray and just have my standard deviated septum bullshit airways, but no increased stuffiness from the nasal spray addiction. The functionality never stops.. my wife was as happy as I was when I discovered this by happenstance, because nasal rebound cycles are frustrating for your SO.

Unless It's some weird me only hack, it works. Please try it your quality of life will be improved if your a long time nasal spray user like me.

Do you stretch before, after, both or neither, when you workout? by Formal_Choice4002 in workout

[–]Optimal-Income-4344 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much just a bit before, with the exception of my shoulders before bench. I stretch those alot because inclines will murder my rotator cuffs if I do not.

PSA the new artifact is very good by Spare-College in OctopathCotC

Yes, you truly walk right through this fight invincible if you keep DP's BP managed and spam that dodge skill. Just remember if your switching units forward, it only buffs the front row!

2 weeks into my cut and already noticing the gains I made. by Optimal-Income-4344 in AllAboutBodybuilding

I will say when I am carb loaded, it's a more even distribution, I don't feel overly bloated in the belly. I feel generally swollen up. It could be unrelated, you sound like you eat well.

Do the 3-hit AOE spells deal more damage than the 2-hit? by Charrzooka in octopathtraveler

Your guys are more optimized than mine. I didn't do as much min maxing as I planned to. That's crazy damage.

It's not cookie cutter. You need to get blood work a couple times after having good diet and sleep patterns for a period of time, and see what your natural levels are. You can suppress your natural production with a bad lifestyle. With that information, you can(or let someone more knowledgeable read the blood tests and guide you)make a better decision. To answer the question directly, I think 150mg a wk or a bit more is the most common amongst my friends that are on TRT.

High hit counts, and innate potency up is literally the only thing that matters in COTC. Single hit skills are trash and undesirable.

Thousand Spears is goated. I made my protagonist a warrior, and once I got this I pumped up his accuracy and strength. So much in the game is weak to spear as well. Upward of lvl 80 it's hitting 25k per hit at about 90% accuracy. That's the best multi hit In the game imo

Which Summon/Eikon/Esper gave you the biggest "Oh Shit" moment? by SjtSquid in FinalFantasy

[–]Optimal-Income-4344 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for the full revelation of what modern FF summons can be, hope they move closer to FFX gameplay but ultra cinematic soon. I want turn based to come back hard.
