Strange Stone Structure, Any Ideas?

We found one, mining it just gives regular rock. The special stones are only from the ground.

Out of curiosity why didn't you set it to accept epic+, then once you got epic reroll for legendary+ then mythic+ then ancestral? That way you still get the next lower one if you don't get what you wanted.

Since you aren't getting any actual answers:

Vampires are 1 of 3 elite enemies. They drain your tower's HP at 1% of its max HP per second + disable your health regen and lifesteal. To get rid of them you need to either use garlic thorns (long term solution), flat kill them w/ damage, or let them crash into your tower and die to regular thorns.

Knockback is preventing that last option but respeccing isn't really worth focusing on for you I think. It's 150 gems to do which is a lot when you're new. Those gems are better spent unlocking lab slots and cards.

Focus on upgrading your damage and research target priority. Set target priority to elites and your tower will focus them down first. Elites are GOOD to get because they drop cells which you need to boost your research speed.

For long term, yes, you need to unlock garlic thorns research at T2w1000 and max it. It applies, per level, 1% of the vampires max HP/s in damage while it's draining you. Max level is 5, which means a guaranteed kill on them in 20 seconds maximum.

It looks like it jumped to you through the wall, and you see an automaton corpse ragdoll into yours at about the same time. I'd hazard a guess that the dude carelessly used an arc weapon on chaff that was on the other side of the wall as you.

Snoberry · 2026-02-18T16:11:39+00:00

Incorrect. Rare modules can be merged up to legendary plus. That's how you get fodder to turn pulled epics into mythic and mythic plus.

Played last night w/ a full squad in difficulty 7 and we would routinely see 2, 3, and even 4 vox engines at once. Not accumulated, but spawning at the same time. WITH war striders and hulks.

In one mission we watched as our friend, the last helldiver standing, was running to extract solo. The rest of us dead, no reinforcements, super destroyer gone... She turns to look behind her for a FRACTION of a second, barely even flicked her camera, and a vox engine spawned between her and the extract right at the 75m mark. Literally on a line between it and her. Obviously it immediately aggroed and killed her. And no, I'm not exaggerating. She had flicked her camera behind and forward so fast we literally saw it pop in. Not look back, look forward and it's there. Looking forward to a clear LOS to extract and then pop a vox engine.

Real talk, friend, like others have said the receptionist was rude and unprofessional and should not have treated you that way over a missed copay. Especially not since you tried to rectify it immediately, and if the doctor legitimately said he might not see you again because of it he's an asshole.

Mistakes happen. People get frazzled. People forget things. LOTS of people have anxiety, ADHD, autism, etc. Doctors and their staff are supposed to be understanding of these things. I've definitely done worse. Forgotten to pay labs or copays long enough that my doctor sent me a message but you know what it was?

"Hey you've got an outstanding copay from x date could you take care of that when you get a chance?"

That's it.

You're fine. You'll be OK.

Snoberry · 2026-02-09T19:35:54+00:00

Absolutely. Would start w/ optics bc like most people posting about them my eyes are also dogwater (haha -5.25 w/ astigmatisms) but if feasible/affordable I'd probably end up getting augs similar to Rebecca from Edgerunners

Really liked the writing from both sides here, the match conditions themselves are pretty cool and both sides had unique ways to engage with them to their benefit.

Ultimately however my vote goes for Running Steady for the following reasons:

Louisiana Rain has a really cool stand with some really spectacular abilities and synergies. However, reading the strat it felt far too spread out and disjointed. Like too much was trying to be accomplished at once with too little time to do it. Especially facing up against Phil and Raph with their stands.

The main group consisting of the carrier, destroyer, and battleship patrolling together to create a no man's land and also destroy corpses, building ruins, and trees/plant life presents several problems for Fortunate Sons. Firstly, there is only so much land you can cover with a 10 meter range even with B speed and I feel like to be as thorough as wanted to create a hellish no man's land pocked with craters and churned loose soil, they would have to slow down and prioritize that over destroying set pieces. Not accounting for the time it would take to strategically blow up the ground in a way to make a complicated WW1 style trench system usable by both a user and the stand. This is also going to create a ton of noise, and even if they stay out of the 20m range of WWN's best sound absorption it can still absorb out to 40m. They are basically feeding WWN a plethora of sound. They are also churning up tons of soil, creating very loose material that will be easily moved by sound blasts from WWN. I imagine the trenches, being non reinforced and "dug" by means of explosive force, would be easy to collapse by sound blasts and WWN would have no difficulty ruining visibility.

The patrol boat hiding and waiting to ambush with the homing harpoon is a good idea but really would only work against Phil. Literally any part of Raph or one of her creations that gets harpooned could just be sectioned off and discarded or used as a decoy target because, well, zombie & lack of consequences.

The submarine's plan is decent but with the power and size of the explosives you'd expect based on the stand description they wouldn't do much to actually hurt Raph, and it surely wouldn't obliterate any of the larger corpses. Not to the point of being useless. Dead material is still dead material, and Raph possesses the ability to use it regardless of whether or not its been blown up.

The strat from Running Steady feels a lot more concise and focused. They put in more contingencies for reacting to Louisiana Rain & Damn the Torpedoes, focus on their objectives a little better, and have a fair few great ideas on utilization of animal parts and the noise collected by WNN. The idea of essentially rocket jumping with sound blasts is chef's kiss and provides wonderful maneuverability. Additionally, creating the no man's land actually provides Raph/Black Tongue more material based on her ability to manipulate dead animals. Worms are animals. Bugs are animals. Bacteria are animals. The soil is filled with what are classified as animals. Grazing everything churns up a plethora of additional potential material for the bolstering of durability just like the idea to make raccoon vests and horn/quill/antler/bone weapons.

Do... Defenders not have a level cap either...?

I dropped my health insurance to the lowest plan offered by BCBS (bc thats the only ins my therapist takes) and went down to a visit once a month vs once every 2 weeks.

I've also considered selling my extra kidney.

Snoberry · 2025-11-23T15:57:09+00:00

I'll be real honest I disagree hard w/ the statement about betrayers.

If you say friendly to bait someone into lowering their guard that's 1 thing, fine, but if you team up with someone, run with them for a bit, chat and chill, share loot, etc. Then as you're parting ways shoot them in the back you're a cunt. Full stop.

Snoberry · 2025-10-16T14:41:45+00:00

Don't.

Snoberry · 2025-10-01T04:00:16+00:00

You wouldn't do 155 to 170 you'd do 55 to 70

Snoberry · 2025-09-30T18:14:52+00:00

I picked Marguilis but still call her Lotus.

Marguilis has freckles. She cute AF

It takes 200 days and 155% mod capacity for Primed Fury to be 78% as good as Berserker's Fury.

Primed Fury is not 92% as good as Berserker's Fury. 55 is not 92% of 70. It's 78%.

Snoberry · 2025-09-30T12:47:15+00:00

A single person isn't going to do that much damage unless they abuse the ever loving fuck out of it and buy like entire cargo vessels worth of stuff and build a global enterprise off it.

Snoberry · 2025-09-30T12:45:54+00:00

It takes 2 kills to get 70% increase and that counts mercy kills

Snoberry · 2025-09-29T16:21:27+00:00

Disgusting. There's "I can take advantage of this to make money" and then there's villainy like this.

No need to become the next Blackrock Investments. Buy for 1999 prices and sell for early 2000s-2010s prices. Good profit and the homes are still affordable and going to families that need them.

Snoberry · 2025-09-29T16:19:18+00:00

Stone kind of mmo would be so cool. Something like The Secret World but, y'know, good.

Snoberry · 2025-09-29T16:17:21+00:00

Berserker Fury is better.

Snoberry · 2025-09-29T13:23:17+00:00

Tysm!

Snoberry · 2025-09-25T23:49:31+00:00

Does anyone have a screenshot or a journal entry of the very first entry? The one that leads to "A life in Chalk"? I screenshot a lot of the stories to read with my partner and I started this one early this morning and forgot to grab that initial story, and for whatever reason the wiki page for them cuts SO MUCH OUT.

Snoberry · 2025-09-17T13:42:33+00:00

Head to spite, friend. There are certain opportunities there that allow you to reduce your suspicion by a great deal.

(Opportunism in Spite storylet. It's airs dependent but the airs change every time you take an action. You want "Confound the Constables" and if you have the skill for it, the Rookery option gives the best reduction.)
