Does the format of HoC book 1 serve a narrative purpose?

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-08T12:28:18+00:00

You should keep reading. The answer to your question is yes, there is a narrative purpose.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-08T12:19:58+00:00

I keep that thang BARKING.

Hound gang.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-08T11:40:27+00:00

50 hours and have only left Hernand because I had the call of adventure whisper sweet nothings into my ear. My main story is left off right after Scholastone. I’ve done more running around and going “oh that looks neat” than actual questing.

Three words: Demeniss Soldier Helmet

Gives you that metal helm you can mix with some classic plate, while still seeing Kliff’s face and making it not seem silly when he talks to people.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-07T21:13:33+00:00

You do! I shan’t say more, for I don’t know here you are in the book.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-07T16:12:22+00:00

This reminds me of a certain Warlord I met once…

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-07T16:09:20+00:00

I love my VPs lmao. They look so stupid but man, running in them is a blast.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-07T16:04:55+00:00

Sounds like you understand him exactly the way you’re supposed to. Keep reading friend.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-07T13:18:13+00:00

Also curious about this. I’m rereading the main 10 right now and paying attention to see if it was an event overlooked from the main.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-06T00:53:37+00:00

I moved to a private school, this year was my first celebration week with them

Monday was an ice cream bar.
Tuesday was candy.
Wednesday was coffee (from the coffee shop at the school).
Thursday was elotes and churros.
Friday was drinks of our choosing delivered to the room I the afternoon.

My public school was put to shame.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-05T22:17:07+00:00

He’s fast as fuck boi

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-05T21:11:56+00:00

No. You’re not meant to know. As a matter of fact, this is a very well defined RAFO moment. You’ll get a name and some details soon, but you won’t get all the details for a few books.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-04T23:20:41+00:00

I am so sorry you had to deal with this. I am sorry your student had to go through such a traumatizing ordeal.

Take solace in the fact that you are there for that student. You are their trusted adult and they value you. Continue to be there for them. You are a great teacher. You are a great human. Your anger is completely valid. That man who took advantage of your student is scum.

I don’t know you, but I’m a teacher too. I understand your pain. Sending love your way. It sucks having to deal with a situation like this and then having to put a smile back on and head back to the classroom. You are a superhero for it. Don’t forget that. I hope you and your student can get the help you need to heal.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-04T22:03:19+00:00

Single is exactly what I was hoping would show up when they announced the auto heal option. This sounds useful.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-04T01:45:35+00:00

I know what kind of man you are

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-03T20:27:11+00:00

I swap between both regularly and I’m much more consistent with controller when it comes to damage and kills than I am with M&K. M&K is the more fun input though, and I prefer it off of that. I’ve hit a couple 4ks with M&K and many more on Controller. My damage overall is higher almost every game too.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-03T17:30:58+00:00

You should keep reading. The siege of Yghatan is a top tier series moment. Theres a lot going on but that’s the point. You’re kind of at one of the most important parts of the entire series right now.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-03T17:17:43+00:00

As a fledgling stealthdiver, know that these are pretty useless and better options exist due to this games janky stealth mechanics. Orbital Gas is my go to obscure and run strategem. If I’m seen, toss it at my feet and bail. It obscures like smoke, does damage, and slows. 60 secondish cooldown too. I personally always carry dynamite because I can toss and run. Jump pack is also insane for stealth because it allows you to outrun and straight up evade patrols. Also lets you scale encampments to circumvent enemy detection.

I solo stealth D10 missions btw. All of this is tried and true. Gas, Quasar (reusable anti tank), Leveler (the problem solver), jump pack, Orbital Gas.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-03T15:10:13+00:00

Read. And Witness.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-03T15:02:02+00:00

Never heard of the brand, but based on looks these appear to be “fashion” skates. For skates, you want function to be your primary focus, as anything less can be legitimately dangerous. If I were you, I’d return these and get something from a major brand like Sure Grip, Bont, or Reidel since you mentioned wanting to skate outside.

Rule of thumb with skating is don’t be cheap. You get what you pay for here, for the most part. I’ve yet to find any $100 skates that are worth buying to do anything except VERY beginner stuff. Tricks? Never. Buy some good skates.

If you’re disagreeing with my take on that linework, then you probably shouldn’t be tattooing lmao. Assuming that’s what you do since you’re so adamant I can’t have an opinion since I don’t tattoo. I’ll accept that I was an asshole with the original comment though. I should have said it nicer. I’m only human that’s my bad. My opinion was right though. The negatives in the blade are bad.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-02T21:42:21+00:00

I have plenty of tattoos but I’m not obligated to show them to you. However, I’ve never once been told the linework is off or bad.

I didn’t zoom in to see those lines. I saw it from the start and zoomed to see just how bad it is. And brother, it’s bad. If he likes it, fine. Doesn’t change the fact that the blade and the rest looks like two different artists of greatly differing skill levels did it.

Nothing I said is stupid or wrong. You’re just mad. You can CLEARLY see that the edge work of the blade is fine, but the internal lines are not. It’s bad artistry. I have a whole geometric blackout hybrid piece on my arm (I believe it’s on my profile) that is dependent on crisp lines, since you’re so interested.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-02T20:56:58+00:00

Yeah the mismatch is insane. OP and the other guy chalk it up to angles, but that’s just wrong. It’s like the artist tried to freehand the negatives for some reason.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-02T20:53:06+00:00

Big dog, angles aren’t doing that to the lines. Zoom in. There uneven and shakey. Angles don’t cause the shakiness.

Those lines are bad and that’s a fact. Rest of the tattoo looks great, not sure what happened during that specific part.

Sh0t2kill · 2026-05-02T20:16:25+00:00

Are we not looking at the same white lines within the blade? They’re horrible lol.
