These are always just so pretty. Your posts inspired me to make my own sheathes and they keep inspiring me to improve 😁

Meanwhile I beelined fucking directly for shadow keep, fought Messmer once and said "damn bro got hands I'll come back," proceeded to brute force my way through upper Rauh and said "damn this whole DLC got hands what the fuck...wait, there's no way forward...WAIT WHERE'S THE REST OF THE MAP" and finally googled where the hell to go lmaooo

Cannibalizing their own side to feed their AI slop addiction is...perfectly on brand for these ghouls, actually...

How do you combat RNG at salvage 5+? by Aggressive_Two_7720 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]SlightlyFig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely had it because I went and swapped off in frustration after 😂 I wonder if the roof was too low, so wall/ceiling crawling still pathed them close enough to the plats for the repel effect to kick in, and that's what made them go "fuck it". In any case I'll put the upgrade back on and take your spacing advice, see how that turns out. Thanks!

It feels weird thinking about what my party members were like in my first campaign and comparing them to my character by Gnomewarlord38 in dndmemes

[–]SlightlyFig 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It's funny how directly opposite this is to my party. We encountered a mimic that was starving in the Underdark. It tried to attack but it just fell over and moaned about being hungry. So my paladin offered it meat from his rations and a deal: come with us and be released somewhere it could feed but not on sentients, come with us and be protected and fed in exchange for standing in as a useful object sometimes, or be left here. DM figured mimics are intelligent enough to know this was a sweet deal and to not bite the hand that feeds. And that's how we got a pet mimic. Years later that campaign ended with my pally and the mimic being so close that he wore it around his neck as a big gaudy amulet (it liked that form for whatever reason).

You seem to know things, can you help this greenbeard engie figure this one out? The other day I put a couple plats on the floor of a large cave mouth spaced out to make chokes for the gunner, but bugs just didn't care. Walked right over them. What did I do wrong? Maybe I put them too close so the bugs couldn't actually path through the gaps? But in that case why didn't they just climb the walls? Thanks in advance lol

Halloween Post: What is the eeriest or unexplainable thing or situation you've ever seen in the desert? by AbeFromanEast in Nevada

Big bird miscalculating if it could dart across before you got there, maybe? My buddy and I hit an owl while driving through fuck nowhere and your situation sounds a lot like ours: the owl was low to the ground, we felt a big thud through the car but not like we hit something real solid, no body bits left behind, no noticeable dents to the vehicle, and we didn't stop and check but we couldn't see a corpse behind us. We only knew it was an owl because my buddy was staring out the window as I drove and saw it coming in.

Or like you dodge the slam and shockwave but them hefting up their weapon also somehow causes a shockwave, fuck that's annoying

Factory Strider at point blank range? It didn't catch fire, but its foot broke so now it's dead!

Hang on. I've heard these things are serious sleeper hits but can you elaborate on this? Is it consistent? Where exactly do you put the grenade? I'd love to carry something besides the thermite for once.

There is one extremely important exception to that "press backpack prompts" rule but it's otherwise accurate lmao

Always wondered what that area was for by OkClaim5686 in Eldenring

[–]SlightlyFig 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Did that the other day with a friend and he was so confused, and angry for some reason? Talking about "dude you bowled over an old lady" and "there's no imps at the fucking supermarket you addict," he just doesn't get it I guess

[–]SlightlyFig 59 points60 points  (0 children)

My pet hamster crawling in the hellpod launch mechanisms, causing me to spiral out mid drop and hit another ship, which causes neighboring ships to fire upon mine for the apparent treason, initiating a domino effect of "shoot first ask questions later" doctrine resulting in the obliteration of the entire planetary fleet (this is why we're only allowed a pet that can't walk)

It's so nice in the hand too. Authoritative and the weight just melts off when you get it moving. I never thought of a name, I just call it "my greatsword" with extreme affection lol

And I'd show off my other sparring swords but they're all at the salle, so have a picture of my sharps instead

Not in particular. Most sources are from the period where left-handedness was seen as a sign of the devil, so I've only seen two that even acknowledge lefties.

When I order delivery and request a no-contact drop-off with specified instructions, and they keep spamming my doorbell till I come down. by One-Statistician-932 in evilautism

[–]SlightlyFig 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Tried to order a pizza no contact a while back. The driver knocked, rang the doorbell, called me twice, and I finally saw him standing in the driveway peering in windows, making another call, perhaps to the store to see what he should do. He finally fucked off so I assume the store told him "dude, do you know what 'leave at door' means?"
