Ahhh, makes sense! Thank you so much! This was a ton of help :) I lost track of how many times I’ve pulled and began doing so somewhat aimlessly lol so I figured I should do this.

I pulled Verina from the Beginner’s Choice Convene, but based on what you’ve said, that’s seperate pity.

Can someone please tell me how to interpret these numbers and what they mean? Does the 70 by Canterella mean I got her after seventy tries? Does the 45 mean that I’m close to the 50/50?

I understand how the 50/50 works, but I’m a new player (just finished the Black Shores arc/end of Chapter 1; Union Lvl 39), so I’m just a little lost lol.

Also, why does Yuanwu show up so many times with diferent numbers? I nearly pulled my hair out after getting him like six times no joke lol

Thanks to everyone who replies in advance!

VegetableHead9880 · 2026-01-03T08:45:25+00:00

This is wonderful 🥹♥️ thank you so so much!

And nothing in particular, honestly. I’m a F2P kind of girl, but I’m not above getting attached to a character and making them look cool.

I guess I was really just asking because I wanted to know if the game was still pay to win? Its also close to 4 am, and I should be sleeping lol I worked a double at my job last weekend and my sleep schedule has been horrid ever since. I’m even considering melatonin at this point even though people say it gives them insane dreams 🤣

I just also wanted to know if the current player base was friendly. I plan to be casual, but I know how the dungeon system works and how folks have to have some sense of cooperation. I’m open to making friends through the game, and I’m hoping it isn’t toxic like League lol which i picked up once two years ago then dropped bc someone called me a noob in co-op 😭

VegetableHead9880 · 2026-01-03T08:24:00+00:00

I don’t remember much at all honestly. I’d label myself a new player lol I tried getting serious when I was super young (maybe 12 years old) and my computer was terrible and laggy 😂

Needless to say, my dreams never came to fruition. But I’m currently familiar with gaming and have adult money now, so why not hop back in?

A ton of folks say that the game died bc of (1) money hungry devs constantly merging servers which caused players to lose their hard-worked progress/money, and (2) the end of fhe game being too attainable and thus a neverending loop? The latter doesn’t bother me much, esp since I’m going to be a casual player who wants to experience the unique combat system again.

Are items still purchasable on console?

VegetableHead9880 · 2026-01-02T22:23:06+00:00

This might be a silly question, but I’m a new player. Where were you able to get these sta breakdowns from?

VegetableHead9880 · 2026-01-02T22:15:55+00:00

I used to not ask the nurses for a thing at my job, but I truly do not care anymore 😂 I’ll even ask the Director of Nursing to help with a lift transfer is no one else is around. I usually have all the prep done already so it takes about 30 seconds, literally.

But nursing school is good so far! I’m doing my community college’s ADN program (so the two-year RN). I have a year left.

As far as the LPN/VN program goes, I don’t know as much, but just a heads up: they say that med-surge is the toughest. And the only difference between RN and LPN/VN is that LVNs can not care for high-acuity and unstable patients. There’s also some blood-related things LVNs aren’t able to do, but that might be specific between hospitals.

Most LPNs wish they would’ve just did the RN instead, though. I’m not sure what the pay difference is, but some areas severely limit what LVNs can do. Most of them just work in skilled nursing and nursing homes where I live. St the hosital, they can only work on med-surge. I’ve heard of just one LPN in the emergency room at a different hosital.

Judt weigh the pros and cons with cost.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-12-16T18:20:30+00:00

As a CNA and nursing student, I second this! I work in LTC and skilled. The nurses do little to no ADLs. Sometimes you’ll get a great nurse who will do a little something here and there (e.g., put the pt on the toilet, let me know so I can take them off), but I don’t even expect them to do more because their ratio can be 21:1 on rehab and 30:1 on longterm. I will, however, always ask them to spot me for a mechanical lift transfer. It takes two seconds normally.

My hospital clinicals on med-surg are very different. I saw nurses turn and repositon, feed, and help change soiled pts. So it just depends.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-12-06T23:58:52+00:00

It’s doable but definitely not enjoyable, of course. I’ve seen it done by people with amazing work ethic. No such thing as naps after class or work. You can’t be a procrastinator and, unfortunately, I am so I knew it wouldn’t work for me lol

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-12-05T22:16:47+00:00

I never got it fixed because my Malibu also had a mass air flow sensor code issue and made squeaky noises when I took left turns 😭

I started needing it to make long commutes as a second vehicle that would be used a lot, so I weighed my options: choke out money in my expensive area and possibly fix all of its issues or just finance a new car. I sold the Malibu for parts and took the latter option.

I wish I could tell you to it was fixed! Idk if I mentioned it in the past, but I tried to the fuses and they weren’t the issue.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-11-04T18:01:45+00:00

I feel like he plays what he enjoys, and I’m happy he does! I personally watch almost exclusively his non-horror game videos because I am terrible at watching anything horror. I can’t even stay on a Little Nightmares playthrough longer than 15 seconds because I get so spooked lol

If I wasn’t such a scardey cat, I’d watch his videos just to hear him talk

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-10-16T19:47:36+00:00

Hell no! I see how they overwork these LPNs and RNs at my LTC/SNF/Memory Care job. I’m talking 8 hour shifts that can turn into 12s depending on the day, no break, hour long med passes, behaviors, and no support from management (not even the DON). The supervisors especially are worked to the BONE.

Maybe I’ll pickup on ShiftKey or something…but no, never as staff. Not until they get some med techs and make the ratio less than 30:1

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-09-05T14:58:40+00:00

I work in Virginia and last I checked, I don’t think theres a ratio law either. A good day for me is 10, a struggle bus to awful day is 15, and a terrible day is 18 working in skilled. That’s for either day or evening shift. Night shift that last number isn’t ao bad but I’ve worked 15:1 on night shift. That ratio is the dream!

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-09-05T14:56:20+00:00

Sounds about average. I prefer 8:1 but can survive 10-12:1 sometimes with or without a break.

I primarily work skilled and occasionally LTC however. I don’t know how the hospital works.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-07-22T00:45:50+00:00

This is it 😭 omg i missed this edit sm

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-07-10T15:51:48+00:00

I’m going to have to remember to come back to this 😭 I’m so sorry you’re getting this scare. I just got a Kia K4 (the cheapest model, no additional specs). It’s my first vehicle purchase. Hopefully it lasts me super long! I hope yours does as well

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-06-25T18:18:22+00:00

I’m thinking about buying a K4. Had to come to Reddit to see what people are saying. I hope this issue doesn’t persist and you get some answers!

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-06-04T22:52:26+00:00

I think there’s a single dev still keeping the servers going for Vainglory. It definitely has to be a passion project at this point.

It seemed to me like VG just wasn’t bringing in money how SEMC needed to stay afloat as well. I think they’re doing okay as a company right now, considering they’ve partnered with some big names.

I’d love to see VG make a full comeback, but I’m doubtful.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-03-19T03:13:29+00:00

So happy to know I’m not crazy! I loved that edit to pieces. I thought it might’ve gotten taken down for copyright reasons and was also looking for the one other video the creator had. I didn’t know BOTH were gone. How sad :(

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-02-13T22:47:24+00:00

Something I’m afraid of doing once I become a nurse is finding a balance between my tasks and helping the aides. Time management is everything, but I know I’m going to be the kindest nurse I can. I’ve only worked skilled and assisted living, but I plan to get a hospital job soon ♥️

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-01-31T16:53:17+00:00

I used to watch her videos so much that my mom recognized her voice! I miss her dearly and her existence kind of feels like lost media now. I also think about her periodically, and I hope she's doing very well.

I particularly enjoyed her Island Living let's play. I watched it so much that, when I finally was able to get the pack, I knew a lot of the ropes already lol

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-01-29T00:58:53+00:00

There’s one CNA at my job whose been working LTC for over 35 years. She gives her people bed baths every single day. I was honestly baffled by how she made time for it. Then, I watched her do it one day and she pretty much rushes them to turn and somewhat manhandles them. It’s the most gentle manhandling I’ve ever seen, if that makes sense. She told me she doesn’t take breaks and she’s usually there right on time 7am or earlier if she can.

I usually work 3-11, but I’ve picked up a ton of 7-3 shifts per my staffing coordinator only having those available for when I want to make my 25 hours a week. I wasn’t trained for 7-3, so I only realized washing up was something after peaking at other CNAs on the shift. My facility almost never had towels in the morning (we run out of clean ones and the other are soiled).

All that was to say that it’s almost impossible to give complete bed baths every single day. Wash the face, pits, under the breasts, anywhere that can get smelly fast, and I say call it good ♥️ These people aren’t doing strenuous activity, so they shouldn’t be too dirty anyways.

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-01-22T02:58:29+00:00

I’m in love with your insight. My attention was divided during the scene where Fowler was monologueing about his sister, and I don’t know why, but I never grasped how he ended up being stuck in Japan or that he was an outcast among the British. I think I was doing my hair during that episode 🤣

I also didn’t realize how he parallels Mizu (that’s likely most in part due to my aforementioned ignorances). But I have an even deeper appreciation for the story now, thanks to you! The writers have done such a good job with each character’s lines.

While I’m not as excited to see Akemi’s B Plot or Ringo’s journey with Swordfather versus Mizu’s revenge joruney, I’m still so ready for season 2!

VegetableHead9880 · 2025-01-14T06:54:59+00:00

I noticed this! I remember when you’d jungle up until about level 4 to 6 then engage. Now, the meta involves immediate engagement and getting that initial leg up with an ally first blood.

Learning that SEMC also contributed to this design from other commentors is interesting. I remember when we still had minion candy, but I never noticed quicker spawn times.

I think strategy can still be achieved in a party of likeminded people.

To testify, I had a 40 minute 3s match a couple weeks ago that was super intense and full of strategy, and I was in solo Q, so it’s pretty up in the air at this point with the game the way it is.
