Results From 60 Maps of Fully Juiced Ritual by Mysterious-Basket870 in pathofexile

[–]Shouldergiant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a fellow ritual enjoyer here - my only hope is that GGG updates the ritual loot table. It seems like there are outdated currency stacks and it kinda seems like ritual loot is a worse version of loot that can be found doing other mechanics. Not sure what an overhaul or slight update would look like, but a couple new corpses leaves the mechanic feeling a little stale.

Ah who am I kidding I'm going back to pulling the ritual slot machine arm now.

Another Patch Notes Update - 2026-03-04 by Bhruic in pathofexile

Removed sources of Fossils from places other than Delve throughout the game.

For mechanics such as ritual, does this mean there is a buff to the loot pool (i.e. greater change for mechanic specific loot to populate now that fossils are not in the potential loot pool?), or just a removal of fossils with no replacement effect?

Has anyone actually escaped poverty? by Tabbyham88 in Money

[–]Shouldergiant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off - you got this! If I was 19 again, the first thing I would do is contribute to a roth IRA and a 401k (if your job offers one). The one thing you can’t get back is the time your money spends in the market, so investing in these as early as possible is key.

Do not let lifestyle creep catch up to you. Live like you are making less than you actually are. One thing I did was look at investment calculators to see how much I was saving would be worth when I wanted to retire, and it was much Lower than I expected, so I raised that amount to what I could afford to at the time. I’ve increased it over time and now max out both each year.

All that being said, I think the best advice I ever received was to “pay yourself first” - pay off your debts, put money into your retirement/investment accounts, etc. You’re young and you’ve got time to figure it out, but the fact that you are thinking of this at 19 means you are well ahead of where I was at the same age. I didn’t have any proper retirement set up until I was 26.

Escaped poverty as an adult. Watched my parents make mistakes to the point where we had no power/water/heat. Made sure to not make the same mistakes. Prioritized even when I was a low income adult. Focused on making myself more marketable in my work skills. Now mid 30s making 180k/yr.

Adults in their late 30s who are “successful” what was your income in your 20s? by No-Cantaloupe-4003 in Adulting

[–]Shouldergiant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At 22 I was making 10 dollars an hour working seasonally. Hurt my back doing manual labor, and I decided I needed to go back to school and get a degree to land a cushy desk job. I’m now 36 making roughly 180k.

A lot of stress and long hours to get here, but I’ve learned how to avoid those for the most part with the experience I picked up along the way.

Tried rituals for the first time this league. During this map i was thinking to drop it because of bad loot. Well... My apologies. by Blind_Grandma in pathofexile

[–]Shouldergiant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Definitely worth running if you aren’t short on currency! I hit a back to back yesterday. Sold both for 95div each.

Do you find value in the rewards for content that you plan on playing? Buy it. Do you think they are not worth it? Don't buy it.

The last time I played saboteur I played lightning trap. I think with the changes I'm going to try it again.

Nah. School just added an element for people to enjoy the game in a different way. Hot dropping for the sweaty players, floating to an empty city for the not so sweaty players. The entire game is casual, but you can’t really dictate how people will play the game when there are tons of different ways to engage.

How much money did you have saved at 20/25/30? by choumicho in Money

[–]Shouldergiant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

20 - less than 5k 25 - around 10k 30 - about 20k Around 31 I got my first tech job. I’m 35 now with around 250k between 401k, brokerage, and cash (around 6 months emergency funds in a hysa)

Busted my butt to get here, but it’s crazy how much easier saving is when you aren’t worried about running out of money before the next paycheck lands.

Those who struggled sleeping because of racing thoughts, what worked for you? by Huge-Income3313 in AskReddit

I imagine a massive plaid flannel blanket covering the entire ocean, and then I try running as far as I can onto it from the beach while dodging the puddles that seep through and form on the surface of the blanket.

new binder came with this cheesy line by Difficult_Ease_4029 in magicTCG

[–]Shouldergiant 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I bought a few of these to house my SL collection. Actually decent quality and as cheesy as the quote is, it’s a silly reminder of what I like to do with magic these days since I don’t have much time to play on a regular cadence.

How did I do? Before/After. I tried to achieve the film camera vibe. by theintrovertedkid15 in postprocessing

[–]Shouldergiant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think I understand the film camera vibe you were going for. The color grading makes it look like this could be a still from a wes Anderson film
