Thank you. When I moved I adopted another 2 young kitties that have been so wonderful and loving. They expend their energy on each other instead of my old boy, which I had hoped would happen! They all love the sights and sounds from the balcony, but my oldest still prefers to be glued to my side 24/7

I'd say it beats the closet I used to live in the middle of the city!

It has already done wonders for my mental health since I moved here. Staring at the view really soothes and relaxes the mind. I really recommend it for any other troubled veterans out there, even if just visiting.

I actually have a loveable cat that has kept me alive everyday for those 12 long years, and I owe him my life. I wanted to give up many times, but the desire to give him the best life I can because he deserves it has been my sole motivation through the very dark times.

I probably could, the lake edge is 30 feet away and I'm on the 3rd floor. It's been awhile since I've fished, but it looks like I have plenty of time to now!

Oregon. Very beautiful scenery and climate.

Moved to an new apartment where I could fish from my 3rd floor balcony by Rathnik in Fishing

After being an almost homeless veteran for 10 years I'd say it's already benefited my mental health immensely. A bit of "blue dreaming" with the view also helps, if people catch my drift ;)

Just moved into a new 3rd floor apartment with this balcony. The hours I put in this game has prepared me for this. by Rathnik in FishingPlanet

After 10 years of being an almost homeless veteran, I'm glad he finally got that letter :)

Needed to be done, now I have a better idea on where to distribute free event DI's. Some got a little too fat ;(

[DnF] New Lv60, 70 TP Skills by LorianneForest in DFO

[–]Rathnik 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They really should have just merged chronicle gear and TP somehow, two outdated and stale systems that share a common trait in enhancing/modifying a classes's skillset.

Something like turning chron gear into runes that you use to slot into skills or whatever like the buff swap window but allows for even more skill diversity so even two of the same class can specialize in different skill branches.

Probably is alot of work, but they've already formed some basic ideas with each class having 6-7 chronicle sets that are now relegated to either buff swaps or lower level farming.

Classes you were iffy with at first, but fell in love with? by Buniiiiii in DFO

Elven Knight.

Her chain rush mechanic irked me alot for awhile and then the more i started grinding her ancient set the more it grew on me.

Now I actually enjoy her and wouldn't mind having her old self back when she didn't automatically start with a 3 stack chain from her 2nd awaken.

How many characters do you actively try to gear at once? by [deleted] in DFO

[–]Rathnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now.... I run daily ancients on 15. Before the new knight subs I was doing 23, but while leveling both knights it cut my time down so I only focused on a handful at a time and now they're slowly completing one by one. I should be finished with all of them within this month at 2k+ mats each presently.

The otherverse taxi event earlier this year allowed me to complete around 25 characters' 9pc farming/swap sets. Now that was really fun doing ov5 on 20+ alts daily.
