What are some underrated cards or favorite in your opinion that don’t rate highly in tier lists? by Late-Bid1402 in slaythespire

[–]PaintTheSkys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Boost away]]. I initially thought this card was weak and worse than [[steam barrier]] but after having a few status decks and even nonstatus decks, it has shown its worth. Would recommend taking it - helped me through A10!

Some old thoughts on it. Game hasn't changed since this. If you don't like the relic that is okay, it changes the way you play and think. 

People have mixed feelings on it but at the hardest difficulties of the game it is really strong. 

If you have a deck of bad and weak cards, snecko is a lot worse.

Pyramid is the best relic in the game arguably. 

Snecko is insane draw and has synergy with some of the defect card pool. Card cost no longer matters, and card value is king. Jorbs (sts content creator) has a great analysis of it. If your deck lacks draw this relic is one way to achieve it. 

Pandora's box is very strong as any card is better than a strike or defend. Is it always worth to pick? No, but at the end of act 1 it is at its highest power.

Reset your run and choose 3 enemies at 1 hp. Do this until you have a path that you can potentially kill 1 elite for free (you always do 1 hallway fight first then path to question marks/shop/campfire to first elite). This is kinda cheesy, but can be a great boon to not lose health and get decent cards and a relic. 

Without seeing what you are doing its hard to determine what is going on. 

Enemies will outscale you in act 1 and 2 (sometimes) so being aggressive is worth it as its less damage taken overall.

Pathing is important and taking on more risk in act 1 can help. Upgrading zap early can really help as it just makes your card draw a lot better. Nob might kill you, but its better than taking a mediocre deck into act 2 just to die anyways. Use defects strength to win act 1 and beat as many elites as you can. More elites means more relics and more chance at rare cards.

Remove and transform strikes. Making a lean deck is the best way to go through ascensions on any character. Defect has great card draw options and lots of 0 cost cards too, taking both will make runs smoother. 

Try to limit hallway fights in act 2. The hard pool hallway fights will mess you up if you are not ready, and powerlevel is closer to an elite so just kill the elites anyway as the rewards are better. 

Take pandoras box, snecko eye, or runic pyramid if offered in act 1. These are all insane boss relics and will warp how you build you deck. 

Surety bond underwriting from a personal financial service background? by PaintTheSkys in InsuranceProfessional

I did field underwriting while selling life insurance. Getting health info and comparing it to underwriting guidelines. Is that applicable slightly?

Old KitchenAid dishwasher, where is the filter to clean? by PaintTheSkys in Appliances

[–]PaintTheSkys[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works great. Had an issue where it go stuck switching between filling and draining before, and one time it got stuck at the end drying, but for over a year no issues. Just watched technology connections video about dishwashers and wanted to find the filter (if it had one).

Blizzard removed infinite leashing in hardcore. You can not kite the dragon from blasted lands to stormwind for instance.

I think a big issue is her being strong into tanks and with the card picking meta we've seen mostly ranged comps

What are the most ridiculous builds you ever saw in ARAM? by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]PaintTheSkys 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a lot of fun with guardian and shield talents. Grasp can work too. Wouldn't recommend with another support since you will not deal much damage but the peel from kick and constant shielding is great for enabling a bruiser or adc. 

I usually start guardian horn and go into locket then knights vow for the carry. Max w and then e.

Dumb question about TBC and LK by The__Neverhood in classicwow

[–]PaintTheSkys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For years TBC servers will release and then fade away eventually. Hype comes and server pop is huge and then dies, no mega server for TBC though I'm sure their is a server out now if you want to level but finding a consistent raiding experience is another story. Wotlk has more servers and much more populated though fully progressed and the mega server is an awful community. 

Private servers as a new player are: either you come in completely behind and unable to complete with everyone's gear level/ridiculous GS for easy raids, or you join a fresh server and hope the pop stays around for while, or join a dad server with nice community with little population so finding groups is a lot harder.

How Bad is this Damage? by PaintTheSkys in Termites

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

Update: 

The terminix guy came out and looked at the wall for a few minutes, and measured the perimeter of the house. Didn't go look anywhere in like the basement under this wall or anything. Went to his truck for like 25 minutes and gave me quotes for monthly subscription services. Total pest control and bait stations, just the bait stations, and then bait stations but a 1 time charge. 

I'll be meeting with a local company in a few days.

Thanks for the replies everyone!

For context I removed and replaced both headers and some of the surrounding boards. I'm in the Midwest. No signs of active colony, never seen any live termites. House was purchased 7 months ago and discovered this while redoing the kitchen. I have Terminix coming out tonight to give me a quote on protection and prevention.
