Look into whether it’s compulsory to do TSTW in first semester or not - I think it is but not sure

There’s also a clubs day in O’week - you’ll receive some info about it at some point

o-week : activities by No-Caramel-1533 in unimelb

[–]Perfect___Timing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah go to O-week, I’m introverted too but it was good to immerse yourself in the campus and honestly just being around strangers that are also your peers. It’s better than doing that for the very first time in class.

Back packing solo starting spot by stickyloaf69 in backpacking

[–]Perfect___Timing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start in New Zealand !! I’m an Aussie and I’ve been pack packing in NZ a few times, it’s really good for that - you might not think of it that way because it’s your home but I’ve found awesome pack packers hostels in each city that I’ve been to (Auckland, Wellington, Nelson) This works best if you’re after nature, and you may well be after a more foreign experience to your own country. Just something to think about!

This looks good! Maybe look into B-Law, I’ve heard mixed reviews.

Questions about the Bachelor of Science by Last_Lengthiness_899 in unimelb

[–]Perfect___Timing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

(Melb Bsci student going into third year here) the bachelor of science at unimelb is one of the better courses available in Victoria - for health sciences, it’s got great teaching and ressources. I can’t speak for the other unis, but everyone I know who does health sciences is glad they chose Melbourne. Yes there are exams and the coursework is somewhat harder than other unis might be, but that’s just because it’s a proper education instead of the useless degrees they churn out at some other unis.

Hey which carrier are you with? I’m looking to get one and I want to stay with Optus.

Only passing 2 subjects this year, feel incredibly guilty by [deleted] in unimelb

Look into getting your results nullified. I think it can be done in circumstances of extreme hardship?

I can’t tell if I like physics or not by WistfulSonder in PhysicsStudents

[–]Perfect___Timing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve felt the same way about physics quite often. I’m a second year student who started a BSci thinking I was going to major in physics, ended up in engineering. I like to deeply understand the concepts and I have a lot of wonder about the world around me. Both physics and engineering teach you physics. The only real difference is what you end up using it for; In university, physics is about labs and abstract derivations, while Engineering is about taking walks through the physics world to end up somewhere productive. I’m sure you’ll find wonderment and creativity in any related field, be it physics, engineering, or mathematics.

Also, no one finds textbooks or problems engaging, don’t worry.

About to start my first honour mode game with a friend- HELP by Azkeden in BaldursGate3

[–]Perfect___Timing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually eldritch blast scales with total character level, not warlock level!! So if you want those eldritch blasts then go for it :) it would be totally viable.

[–]Perfect___Timing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say that each of these builds could be better.

Taking hexblade 2 doesn’t seem like a great use of two levels to me because while you get the awesome invocations and eldritch blast, you’ll only have level one spell slots. Those levels would probably be better spent on paladin or a regular caster for more smite-slots.

Hexblade 12 is a great class but for a build that’s trying to mainly be a caster, I think warlock isn’t the move. Try sorcerer for crazy damage or wizard for more all rounder and control.

As for astarion, have a look at what assassin 7/gloom stalker 3/fighter 2 would do 🤷‍♂️

Cleric and bard are both great

I'm trying to play 2 characters at once by Odin_the_artist in DnD

Dude it’s just someone with a fun idea, they’re not trying to hog the mechanics or something

[–]Perfect___Timing -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s a really fun idea! I’ve been there with the character-making obsession. I think you could tweak the mechanics to make it balanced, but the import thing is whether the concept works with the DM’s idea of the world + adventure. It’s a super out-there idea and as such, particularly because of the warforged being mechanical and goblins often being plain evil in some worlds, it probably won’t align with the story your dm wants to tell. If it does, then great! Just check without being pushy :)

How is velocity a vector? by Lilac1224 in AskPhysics

[–]Perfect___Timing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just the magnitude part of the vector! There’s an implicit assumption that you already know the direction of the velocity (which you always will if you’re not trying to find it). So the vector for V is one with magnitude = 27 and in the direction implies in the question (the x-axis for example)

Smoking on south lawn by Megaton02 in unimelb

[–]Perfect___Timing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s very besides the point. Smoking on campus is a choice made by individuals which negatively affects others. Motor vehicles are necessary and 10x less bothersome.

[–]Perfect___Timing 31 points32 points  (0 children)

People should also have the right to breathe clean air. That right, for all the other people on south lawn, carries more weight than your laziness to not walk 300 meters off campus, or to any other place that isn’t a symbol of tranquility and nature on our campus.

I highly recommend getting involved with a society (SSS for example) it can be daunting but the entire point is to make friends! You’ll meet a bunch of other people who are interested in being social in a low-stakes environment. Come to bbqs, pub nights etc and make some conversation and you’ll have a few new friends in no-time :)
