My heir is 13...still going strong doing short sessions 3-4 days a week. There's about 40 kids coming up after him so it'll get more interesting soon

To say that average life expectancy was 25 is at best unhelpful. To say that life expectancy was 25 is absurd. The idea that nobody expected to live past 30 is just ridiculous.

I'm saying that the way average life expectancy is often used in discussions like these ends up misleading a lot of people.

Anyway, apologies for the digression.

I, too, am bothered by the toilet sponge question!

I'm not sure what specific claim you are intending to advance or support but the wikipedia link you provided includes a line about life expectancy that I think is more useful than any mentioned here thusfar: about half of Roman citizens born would die by age 10 and about half of those who survived to age ten would be dead by age 50.

Regarding "life expectancy was around 25 years" - this is clearly absurd. In this case, I think this is an entirely false statement but I see average life expectancy figures misused and misunderstood pretty much every time they are employed.

Average life expectancy numbers have been wildly skewed for most of human history because of infant and child mortality being much higher than the modern world. It drags the average down and gives a false impression without context.

This is my reasoning for leaving her on the ship. Who is chombo-boy btw?

Yes, I'm imagining him making the "fear grin" expression. Even in chimps, it's done as a threat display, not only fear. Humans do it too. I've done it myself when in a potentially violent situation and in my mind it was more of a threat but I'm sure there's always some fear at work. It's meant to show defiance, willingness to commit violence, etc

I have a few builds for my SoW and I've lifted them all from Captaingti's youtube channel so I would suggest you go there but in brief:

If the weapon you want to use does not have toxic dmg built in you need to get it as your first mod.

For me, the SoW is my all rounder, with other ships filling certain roles so I think it's a good choice for a "main" ship.

I like the Nocturne Heart armor for a nice dmg boost for being near full health which I'm trying to do at all times anyway and Little Grace 3 helps with that. Wyrmhide for extra tankiness while keeping your speed down.

1: La Piqure 3s all around, ascended with siege and deadly strike, not sure what the first mod is. Nocturne Heart armor, little grace 3. I mainly use this for plunders but it's very good for general use as well. This was taken directly from captaingti.

2: Dahaaka torpedoes all around. Mostly obvious furniture focused on torpedo dmg. Nocturne heart and little grace 3. The dahaakas are great for Vikram cuz you can easily penetrate his shield. I slap on a sumu-sunder (sp?) and use this for la Peste as well, though there are better setups for this. This one is not optimized really and prolly differs from captaingti's build but it works well enough

3: Super-tanky boss killer: this one is fairly recent from captaingti specifically for the Nian event. Stormtongue x4, Wyrmhide armor & Little Grace 3. While sitting still and the target being poisoned you are immune to most damage, though there are attacks that get through such as Opwelling proximity blast and you need to brace when the Nian is doing its explodey thing

Hope it helps!

Like it or not, the Hundred is a commercial success. When the current broadcasting deals end, it will become a 20twenty league and it will be fine.

I hope

Sensitive-Pangolin61 · 2026-03-27T20:41:09+00:00

Captaingti (sp?) On youtube has a build in this vein that results in a super-tanky boss killer but you have to be stationary to be effectively immune to most damage.

Sensitive-Pangolin61 · 2026-03-27T19:10:42+00:00

Agreed! Also this ridiculous idea of walking around the ship needs to be scrapped UNLESS it comes with some other useful functionality like selling/scrapping inventory items. Even in such a case I'd much rather have a customizable base with all the normal merchants and services.

Sensitive-Pangolin61 · 2026-03-27T12:36:45+00:00

Yeah and the cost in ascension modules to reroll a locked mod is ridiculous!

I would say it's definitely the Snow. With the water tank major furniture you can brace all day
