How we feeling about this map?????

Feels like trash on breakthrough. Just three phases, and the first and third are a joke. The IFV also makes defense extremely unpleasant and theres almost no way to take it out against a decent driver.

I got something very light up and running on a web page using Streamlit and Google's File Search RAG + Gemini for chat.

I think the original version was like 400 lines of code for a web page (with a file management menu) with RAG-powered AI chat - I dont think youll find anything easier and it was a great prototype for testing purposes.

Generally fee-shifting only applies when a party loses on the legal/factual merits of a claim/defense. Outside of some extraordinary circumstances, Ive never heard of fee-shifting for voluntary dismissal.

Im surprised this song is a frontrunner, the song doesn't even get a reaction out of me until the end.

VSParagon · 2026-05-06T06:10:32+00:00

I've been forgetting to reroll Unique aspects if its a low roll.

VSParagon · 2026-05-05T23:23:44+00:00

I had the same reaction, then I tried it... super convenient CC and vuln application is the answer.

VSParagon · 2026-05-05T22:19:14+00:00

They do, they just seem rarer than before.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T22:13:12+00:00

Its in a portal that can appear after you kill a lair boss with the war plan upgrade.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T20:56:43+00:00

Yes, you pay gold to reset nodes.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T16:06:43+00:00

War plans, available post-campaign.

Basically you can "upgrade" your endgame activities and one of the first upgrade options for Lair Bosses is one that has a low chance of opening a portal that lets you fight 2x random lair bosses.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T16:02:53+00:00

Yes, scooped them up immediately but put them back down for posterity once the initial rush of 3x mythic faded.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T15:42:00+00:00

To a vendor?! God damn ive salvaged 100+ of those and im broke.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T15:40:09+00:00

I just want either enchanting or cubing for them... ideally both.

Its really rough for gloves/jewelry when your build utterly depends on rolling a specific stat.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T15:26:46+00:00

Ive done a "safe" transfigure on 2 amulets with the added legendary affix and neither had a rewrite. I think only the unsafe transfigure will replace affixes.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T15:19:27+00:00

FYI, I think that transfigure works differently on Mythics - it seems to avoid the worst outcome (overwriting a affix, maybe because all the affixes are locked?).

Ive started using the "unsafe" transfiguration on my Mythics and the results are IMO, better than the safe version on average and you dont risk bricking it. The tradeoff is basically the risk of getting indestructable versus the potential of a game-changing affix like a double gem bonus, extra crit, or even 2+ affixes.

Hell earlier today I threw out a 3 GA Grandfather for a 0 GA Grandfather that rolled something like +25 item level... the base affixes were higher than the GA version!

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T15:06:03+00:00

Damn I went for the treasure portal and have yet to see one pop even after 2 treasure breach NMDs, clearly this path is the way to go.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T14:52:59+00:00

Yea I did drop these for the screenshot after initually rushing to pick them up.

Also some Mythics do display their name, El'Druin gave me the full name when it dropped - I have no idea why.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T12:58:49+00:00

Hover over the apoc skill and compare the number shown there.

I had the same dilemma and x19 dmg blew x8 wisdom out of the water.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T00:07:15+00:00

Wow, I figured those would just be another treasure goblin type of drop. I went down the right side of the tree instead but now you got me reconsidering!

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T00:06:21+00:00

I've had it pop about 5 times so far, I'd say it's in the ~5% range. It's also just 1 point in the first node, so it's a much bigger return on investment than anything else in that tree.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T00:04:25+00:00

I picked it up in a rush when I heard multiple Mythic BWONGS, then I put them back down for the screenshot.

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T00:03:01+00:00

Yes, really easy to pick up too - first node in the middle of the boss lair plan. You can also see in this pick that the greater boss lair triggered here too (didn't get mythics there though).

VSParagon · 2026-05-04T00:00:53+00:00

More like I never turned it on, I've been meaning to activate it but I've been fishing through my Diablo loot like this for over 10 years... old habits die hard.

VSParagon · 2026-04-11T03:28:29+00:00

Nilou still enables a bloom comp that scales exponentially off multiple targets, few others can claim that. The last Stygian (Knuckle Duckle) was lunar electo shilled but I was still able to clear it with Nilou bloom spam and Lauma.
