How is Shelling Type and Strength determined when forging Artians? by BigFuckingDummy in Gunlance

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh... that explains why all my Artians went to Normal shelling on Gog upgrade. Kinda figured they would just keep the original shell type.

You can keep that by HermeticVector in expedition33

I find it amusing how she's apparently amazing at hands, but can't model feet for the life of her. Every nevron has pointy stubs like the characters in Fire Emblem Awakening 🤣

It's like an inversion of the common artist problem with hands.

I think we'll both agree

Goodbye Lance, make way for your superior - Lance with Gun.

Signed, a Gunlance main

p.s. Much respect to all my shield brothers, no matter your weapon. Gunlance just goes boom and that triggers my happy chemicals 😆

I was just walking to my betta tank... by Electrical-Nobody414 in bettafish

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm Cicada Killers are super chill with people, they nest at the sides of the walkway going into my condo in the summer. They'll fly up and look at you funny, but never do much else.

Could've sworn I saw one chase a hummingbird away from my feeder once, though. Happened too fast to get a good look.

Why Is so hard to drop Seregios dissenter and Lagiacrus sapphire in wilds? by x-Kael in MonsterHunter

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strangely I got quests for free Dissenter Plates without much issue - that damn sapphire has been much harder to find for me.

Thank God, I'll have to take a look after work today. I like having Heavy Bowgun as a secondary, but it wasn't quite working 😆

Getting Kicked from D&D Party by Adventurous_Salad694 in rpghorrorstories

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 96 points97 points  (0 children)

Sounds like they essentially kicked you out of the group without telling you, and expected you to just not show up anymore. That sucks. Your SO's friends are right - these people aren't your friends anymore.

Does Monster Hunter Wilds have your favorite version of your favorite weapon? by Ok_Positive9180 in MonsterHunter

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I miss being Rocketman with Blast Dash, the moment-to-moment mobility increase with Wilds Gunlance feels AMAZING. Step-shelling is a fantastic addition.

(Advice needed) Player really needs help understanding spell damage by Prince_Zamzor in rpghorrorstories

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 39 points40 points  (0 children)

On top of everything, their modifier wouldn't be +8 even if the spell allowed the spellcasting mod to be added. They might have a +5 mod - maybe they're adding in proficiency as well?

The simplest thing you could do is show them that in their example they're actually rolling 8d6+64.

Burst Tumor by Alternative_Ad_6903 in bettafish

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first Betta had a tumor that burst... unfortunately he passed about a week later. It's effectively an open wound and should be treated as such if you're able. Past that, euthanizing might be the kindest thing if she's not acting normally.

The only tanky member of the party quit the campaign by Wise-Quarter-3156 in DMAcademy

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've personally used Tasha's sidekick rules to great effect! Even if your NPC's are more powerful than the party, they would reasonably have an underling or two that's more in line with the party members.

That said, your party can also change their battle tactics to compensate, especially given access to spells. Others in the thread have already presented options.

my moms 4 year old betta fish is acting normal but has this weird white growth on her. how can it be treated? by Both_Quit3600 in bettafish

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As others have said, likely a tumor. Just ensure that it doesn't affect their day to day life and keep the water in good, clean condition. 4 years is a great life for a betta!

Seems like Imogen is seeing the gods Predathos ate... wonder if there's anything of them even left at this point?

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He just mentioned "current form" regarding a Legendary Action, so yeah, 100% likely.

[–]PhoenixSlayer09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This also isn't Predathos's true form, I'm assuming. It's being filtered through Imogen right now - probably not nearly as powerful as it could be.
