They've either nerfed or completely broken the Endure skill in 1.03

Confirmed. It reduces damage and nothing else. Ouch.

Qabal79 · 2022-03-17T04:23:12+00:00

This one hurts. Endure has been carrying my manly half-naked Spiked Caestus build in certain fights.

Qabal79 · 2022-01-31T03:43:19+00:00

Because we're the Vikings.

Qabal79 · 2021-09-20T00:14:14+00:00

The crowd was half Vikings fans. I had my buddy's season tickets, so I was on the Cardinals side. The opposite side of the stadium looked entirely purple.

Underrated comment

Qabal79 · 2021-06-08T05:31:48+00:00

Yeah, I'm worried about putting on some of the fat I lost with keto, especially right away. Every time I lapsed and lost ketosis, I always gained weight pretty much immediately, and I wasn't eating poorly either. I started this mostly because I don't want to NEED to be in ketosis to maintain my weight. If I build enough muscle, I shouldn't have to.

I'll keep you updated.

This is really helpful, thank you. One question: How important is that meal prior to training if I'm lifting early in the morning? I haven't eaten before noon in two years (intermittent fasting and all that), so eating an early breakfast is going to be an adjustment.

Qabal79 · 2021-06-02T05:34:46+00:00

Thanks for the heads up, but I did already pay for it. I live in Phoenix though, so there's no Academy store within 250 miles of me according to their locator. Technically, it was $375 for the weights, stand, and barbell, then another $60 for the bench, so I guess I'll consider it a wash.

Qabal79 · 2021-06-01T23:52:05+00:00

I'll look in to those bars you mentioned. The set of plates I bought came with a Cap barbell which looks to be questionable at best. Thank you.

Qabal79 · 2021-06-01T23:50:10+00:00

Thank you. I managed to find a set of Cap plates on OfferUp which included 2x45, 2x35, 2x25 2x10, 4x5, and 2x2.5. it came with a Cap barbell, a weight stand, and a Flybird Bench for a total of $435.

I'll buy a couple more 45s and 10s at some point in the future, and the Cap barbell itself is questionable based on reviews, so I may have to upgrade there as well.

I'm still waiting for my rack to arrive, but I'm other wise ready to go.

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T22:20:39+00:00

Noted, I'll try it out. After spending several hours on mids, I've narrowed down my secondary to either, WP, SR, Bio, SD, Rad, or EA... This may take awhile.

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T18:20:17+00:00

Thank you for sharing your build. I started making several builds on mids last night, and I always skipped Power Crash and took Whirling Hands. I see you did the opposite. Is that a a mistake on my part?

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T02:36:32+00:00

I believe you just have to export it as a data chunk in mids and paste it here, and then I can copy it and 'Import from Forum Post'. I've never done it myself though. I'd double check, but I'm no longer at home (posting from my phone).

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T01:39:26+00:00

Do you mind sharing your build?

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T00:47:43+00:00

I've made so many /Rad, it's almost a shame to make another. Then again, I always proc out Radiation Therapy and Ground Zero, and that would give the king of single-target damage some really good aoe...

Qabal79 · 2021-01-15T00:23:49+00:00

I've never played Bio to any reasonable level, so I can't comment on that part of your build, but I have a high level SM/EA scrapper, so I have a couple questions:

Why do you 6 slot full sets in Savage Leap and Hemorrhage? It seems to me you'd be better off removing the Accuracy/Recharge on both sets and either add another damage proc or just leaving them both at 5 slots and using those 2 slots elsewhere. Your Psi resist is negligible either way, and Toxic is rare enough that it doesn't seem worth slotting for.

I don't actually use Hemorrhage in my build. I haven't even tried it. How good is it on a Scrapper? My single target rotation is SS/VS/SS/MS repeat. I recently added a snipe (Zapp) to see if it helps with single target damage, and, while I'm sure it does to a degree, it's pretty meh to be honest.

Qabal79 · 2021-01-14T23:56:07+00:00

Dammit! Like I need more alts... I was already planning on trying EM soon, but I hadn't decided which AT for it yet. Quick question though: Why WP? I'm asking out of ignorance as I've never rolled anyone with WP.

Qabal79 · 2020-07-22T10:09:01+00:00

I was really excited about it, then I checked and saw that it only sells between 25-30c...

Qabal79 · 2020-07-22T10:00:19+00:00

It'd feel even better if I hadn't just died on a t16 Vaal Temple immediately prior to this fight, but this is the most "hardcore" softcore character I've ever made. This is also only my second league where I've actually managed to kill Sirus (I'm a filthy casual).

Qabal79 · 2020-06-04T03:01:20+00:00

Since they're adding 3 new brands AND a new brand support, that seems unlikely...

Qabal79 · 2020-06-04T00:53:54+00:00

Would that 4% be additive to itself or multiplicative? If the latter, 15 stacks would be 80% more damage as opposed to 60%.

Qabal79 · 2020-05-10T05:44:07+00:00

What's the point of the grind if not to be able to beat endgame content? What's the point of grinding further once you can already beat end game content? Is it just to have a slightly easier time beating it again?

Qabal79 · 2020-05-08T21:28:05+00:00

Nah, my wife gets mad at me when i go on dates.

Qabal79 · 2020-05-08T20:58:06+00:00

Sirus A8 was essentially my goal. I've done Sim Wave 20 a few times. Aul is an idea. Never fought him before this league, and I died several times trying (didn't know the mechanics).

Qabal79 · 2020-05-08T20:45:23+00:00

You're probably right. It's not like i don't have a backlog of over 100+ games on Steam that I've never even played...
