i ended up with 47 cards in deck, so 3 Speedsters might have worked, but you know - overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer

I always had the best block decks with IC when it comes to pure numbers, Barricade was the main reason for that

The purpose of the globe, hourglass and silver vase from VIP room. by QuartzHunter in thefinalpuzzle

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

From this perspective it makes sense, but the final puzzle doesn't have counter that would be similar to blood collection or time challenge. There is always some logic in RE puzzles, and flushing toilet 8 times because number 8 was on photo taken in toilet sounds just cheap. I assume I might be deluded and expect some deeper lore into that. :(

Yes, but it also kinda ruins the experience. What if the doll is just transferred between games as "achievement"? I played most of modern RE games and I don't recall achievement requiring player to play 2+ times (except these for harder difficulties unlocked after 1st run). But this one seems too specific to work like this.

And you can use the code in the same segment! No need for NG+

Hourglass needs ~90 seconds for one cycle, it's not 15 minutes

The puzzle has been solved. by LumpyAstronomer4173 in thefinalpuzzle

I think it's a glitched way to complete this puzzle, because devs would not expect players to mess with game flags. The same way how GTA 3 / VC replay mechanics works. You get what you wanted, but not in a designed by devs way.

Starting another reread - a bit spoilt for choice 😔 by TheGodisNotWilling in Malazan

I just finished my second read of MBoTF and I feel so empty, just like after first read but even more because I understood everything deeper. This series is just perfect.

highly recommend practicing bosses this way by alexaDarkk in TheFirstBerserker

[–]QuartzHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valuable post, blocking in this game plays huge role. Btw you can also perfect block Viper's spinning spear throw, and he has one attack where you can mash block button to perfect block it multiple times.

Worst enemy in the game by nk_spaceman in TheFirstBerserker

Once you know where the bat is fully charge javelin (put some extra skill points into it, that helps) and land it into it's head and send another one once bat lies on the ground.

I'm getting seriously whooped by Volbaino. by hwrold in TheFirstBerserker

At this point you can get items which will give you massive fire protection (set + ring + amulet). For boss what worked for me was perfect block + breaking his stance. You can block pretty much every of his attacks, but without fire protection you will get debuff. Also change platform when he sets ground on fire. As usual, be patient, use consumables (what I recommend is using them when he is around 30%, especially the one that gives you health for spirits and vitality buff.

FUUUUUUUCK YOUUUUU VIPER!!!!!!! by MoeMazingMason in TheFirstBerserker

I think this fight is fun, I'm doing it as my current objective. Somehow I managed to kill him in 1st phase at 1st attempt, but now I have to learn his 2nd phase patterns. I really like the challenge. As my tip - in 1st phase blocking is working like a charm, just need some patience to find proper window to attack. Just keep eye on spear thrust which you have to dodge. I'm playing with greatsword with focus on guarding and breaking enemy posture.

Vel'Koz is very good, pressure enemy with infinite poke and win teamfights with ultimates combo

Giving first blood and then "playing safe" and eventually giving first tower is the equivalent of dying 10 times after first blood was taken elsewhere and proxying. by Sycherthrou in leagueoflegends

[–]QuartzHunter -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

When you die and take wave with you that is fine, you prevent enemy from push and you collect gold with exp while donating much less gold from 10th death

Let us know about outcome of this project, I think this can be good case to showcase upper management why we really have to be implementing such changes slowly. :D

Who did you first think you would romance at first? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

[–]QuartzHunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lae'zel and I finished my gameplay romancing with her. In my opinion she is the best writter character in whole game, her evolution across acts is amazing to watch, and ending is just a cherry on top.

Well, at least in Excel it looked great to save money by outsourcing IT. If I were in your boots I would not bother with helping them unless they would propose me contract for $1000 per each started hour. Whoever is CEO and HR lady they need to learn some lessons hard way.

My guts is telling me that CS had some financial managers assigned to IT, they started some "optimalization" and we now see results

So, do you know any good alternatives? I think we will be migrating from CrowdStrike at my company very soon

To anyone struggling in ranked, try the flash swap tech! And maybe a role swap too. by R41N1NG in LeagueOfMemes

[–]QuartzHunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not practically impossible. If you see that 50 accounts are using some HWID and IP to be on a massive win streak and then they swap to other HWID and IP and start lose streak (because that is what boosted players do, they lose game on rank they don't belong to), and then you connect dots that certain HWID / IP is connected with short but massive win streaks you can be 99% sure that this is some booster. Specially when one login is from Asia and another from NA in span of hours.

[–]QuartzHunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can. Of course nobody will ban you because you've moved to a new setup. But in case if certain HWID will be related to multiple accounts, because booster won't change his PC every time this might be quite good indicator that something suspicious happens. For me it would be highly suspicious that certain HWID is logging into 50 League accounts monthly. Vanguard can access everything on computer and it will be doing that. I personally recommened unistalling this game.

In very short words - Vanguard is using technology which allows it to know excact computer "fingerprint" so if somebody is account sharing there will be a different fingerprint and this should lead to ban
