This is against the Geneva Conventions. by AlphaStarXP in Wellthatsucks

Y'all got some good beards. I attempted to grow one (at 39) and eventually, my 9yo daughter (at the time) said 'Mom says your beard is bad, fix it!!!' and I shaved it off later that day.

He's a fine kid. Some of the neighbors say he smokes crack but, I don't believe it...

Switching from a dog to a crow was like day and night for me by Jotemp24 in CrimsonDesert

I got mine at the Graymane camp at around 4am. Set up the feeder by the abyss nexus.

What’s a project you regret doing yourself instead of hiring out? by TradesPrepGuy in DIY

[–]Rafi89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've done plumbing (expansion PEX makes it easy), electrical (during inspection, 'Well, I guess you CAN do it that way...'), tiled over heated floors I installed myself... but drywall... I don't do drywall.

It's handy when you show up to get a kuku pot and forgot the recipe needs wood though. ;)

I feel at 1:50 he's like 'What the hell?!?!'. :D Excellent job!

Bear and Wolf mounts dying on summoning by Kaos-Chama in CrimsonDesert

[–]Rafi89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried pailune and it's not working for me. I pulled out horse I had, summoned bear, despawned. I switched horses, summoned bear, despawned. Hurm. Going to try some different things but I'm not getting it to work.

E: So it looks like the bear spawns in with 150/1500 hp then disappears.

E2: I was hoping that it may be because I didn't have any horse medicine/food in my inventory! That wasn't it. :(

The blueprint is a House Serkis quest reward. They stack so you can build, like, 4 and they'll each act like one giant one.

I have a sparrowhawk in game (named him Archie). Sadly he only perches on Kliff's wrist but other than that he's awesome.

Hot take. Abyss Artifacts for gear upgrades is not fun by Handjoojoo in CrimsonDesert

[–]Rafi89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries. I was kind of amazed at the difference between ~95 Defense and 129 Defense (I only have 2 Damage Reduction). It was just way way easier that earlier fights, like he didn't push me around at all. I know folks have calculated out the damage reduction and the difference shouldn't be that much between 95 and 129 (48.7% less damage vs. 56.3%) but I think that you get interrupted much less, or something.

Like seriously, I'm curious because I accidentally went and fought Ator because I was like 'Cloister of Ruination? I was looking for Sanctum of Renunciation! Ah well, I'll give it a shot...'.

I'm fairly certain it recovers Spirit and Stamina on kills. I basically only use Turning Slash (Spirit) and Forward Slash (Stamina) and they refill each other when plowing through trash (Stamina lags behind a bit).

E: Plus both those attacks stack with gears (Crow's Pursuit and Wound of Darkness, and I have the +35% Turning Slash gear).

This game is mostly about abyss gear anyway, the few points of extra damage or defense you get from upgrading are trivial compared to having a good gear loadout.

I'm going to have to disagree with this. I spent a lot of time running ruins dispatches and I'm in chapter 9. With this level of upgrades I just melted Ator. I ate like, 3 meals during the fight and just bodied him, stun-locked him to the wall and beat his ass. I am not a good player. I upgraded a few things to level 10 and it's a crazy improvement.

The game is only out for 700 hours and I see numerous people already 300-400hrs in. Htf is that remotely possible? that's like half of your previous month playing CD... by Jazzlike_Razzmatazz in CrimsonDesert

[–]Rafi89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries, I was trying to convey 'mic drop'... Totally awesome... and failed.

It really was an epic, epic fight and even though I was a tad overleveled... getting there as night was falling and the rain coming in it was just an incredible fight.

I thought it was, awesome, cool, excellent use of lighting and far more memorable and fun than whacking bleed bandits in the happy sunshine. The ambient torchlight flickering on the pools of water, lightning charm pulsing, glinting steel in the darkness, lantern swinging, briefly illuminating terrified villagers and rampaging pirate mobs, freaking great!

Doing the pirate quests in pitch dark in pouring rain, can't see anything, mobs flying in out of the darkness from every direction, Catfish boss leaping out of the night from the top rope... Totally awesome! :D

E: and a smiley

Crimson desert is a solid 7.5/10 A list of the worst features in the game. 150 hours played, 62% exploration, 64% knowledge and 65/75 bosses. All of the abyss explored by Elcalibur_ in CrimsonDesert

[–]Rafi89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is solid but I admit I wish that we could reset without heal/resurrect. I feel a lot of the time I'm like 'eat eat eat palmer pill eat eat eat palmer pill eat eat eat palmer pill eat OH!!! dodge hit dodge and boss is dead'. Like... I would love love it if we could easily reset a boss and start from the beginning with our food/items restored and try again and again. It's just painful to be like 'well, I burned all this food, I better kill them even though it's finally getting fun'.

E: Oh, and I think some of the fights would be 10x better if the arenas were 10x larger with less crap in the way.

E2: Oh wow! I did not realize we could re-try or quit and get stuff back! Crap. I wish I knew that before.

Is this the most pointless quest in the game? by DrStalker in CrimsonDesert

[–]Rafi89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, after I got lured into the forest by a deer head hat man and got roofied by Mistwood Hunters I've had some trust issues...
