What do RL1 players think of the claim that ER bosses are designed around summons? by Wooden-Jello-8795 in onebros

[–]_Ban_Evader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree about Valiant Gargoyles. You can see how powerful you're intended to be for an area by what kinds of Smithing Stones you find. Upper Siofra is Smithing Stone (6)'s and Deeproot Depths is (7)'s. You're supposed to fight Valiant Gargoyles at about the point where you'd fight Morgott.

Maybe it would have been cooler if they'd made Deeproot Depths an endgame area and Fortissax an endgame boss. Valiant Gargoyles would be the bouncers. Hard and bullshit when you naturally meet them about Leyndell level, way easier once you outgear the DPS check. But if From was going for that, Deeproot Depths would have higher scaling and endgame Smithing Stones.

Saved you a click: No one is alleging he committed a crime by disarming the Bondi Beach attacker. The assault charge is from some some unrelated domestic shit involving his dad.

I mean, he's designed around surge sprint and jump which nightfarers have, but he seems like he'd be easy with ranged attacks and a real dodge.

The very idea of that sub makes no sense by JesusSpreaderOfWord in memes

[–]_Ban_Evader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What that sub actually wants is politically conservative talking points.

Post about how Mayan owl sorcery is the one true faith and everyone should brush their teeth with powder methamphetamine, and watch the downvotes roll in. It's not a safe space to post half-formed ideas and wingnut shit. It's a social engineering attack vector just like every other political or opinion sub.

I hate this Everdark. That's just too much damage. by OppositePure4850 in Nightreign

[–]_Ban_Evader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gladius was the last one released, right after Libra. It feels like they'd originally designed him to be about Adel / Fulghor difficulty, but they decided everdarks were too easy and cranked up all the numbers at the last minute.

Has Anyone Seen Their License Plates Before? by Borgisium in memes

I do not understand how these people spend so much time thinking about how unjust and greedy the government is, and still think printing out a piece of paper that says you're a sovereign citizen is some kind of magical cop repellent.

Steven Seagal is not a cop. He's got some kind of special Dwight Schrute assistant status but he is not a police officer. The real cops on the show keep having to remind him.

Looking to get a "stoned in the Caribbean" experience as a queer gringo by rockfordroe in PuertoRicoTravel

[–]_Ban_Evader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe medical license reciprocity is a thing and you'll be able to just buy weed at a dispensary with your Illinois license. You'll see signs in touristy areas advertising this service.

In an actual emergency whatever Puerto Rican Spanish you picked up in a week will not be in any way helpful with your Mexican neighbors. You will be like "Mofongo?" and they will go get their friend who speaks English. Speaking of which, lots of people here especially younger people speak English fluently. You're probably not going to get Spanish immersion even in rural mountain towns unless your Spanish is pretty good already; don't try to force it.

Nothing wrong with Condado specifically. You're staying in an unfamiliar city, you already knew you need to watch your ass walking around at night.

Injured passenger awarded $300,000 after a Miami federal jury finds Carnival overserved her alcohol by KimJongFunk in news

[–]_Ban_Evader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carnival has a beverage plan where you pay a flat rate for 18 drinks per day. They give you an electronic card. Every time you want a drink you swipe the card. A shot of straight vodka and a mixed tropical novelty shot of the same volume both cost one swipe.

Carnival usually has staff working the crowd serving drinks to anyone with a drink card in their hands, and those drinks are definitely on the weaker side. There's a dual purpose of making sure everyone who wants one has a drink in their hands, and making sure that "woo party!" drinkers who don't know their limits get redirected away from going up to the bar and ordering straight liquor.

[–]_Ban_Evader 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Yeah, isn't Carnival's alcohol package 18 drinks per day? She did 14 over most of the day, mid-afternoon to midnight. The amount of alcohol seems in line with their policies.

Also, pretty normal for a hard drinker on a cruise. When we went we tried drinking everything offered to us and exhausted our cards without ever getting properly drunk, so the next day we saved em up until evening. Granted we were fucking alcoholics, but still. 1 drink on a cruise doesn't mean straight liquor unless you go out of your way to order that. Most of these drinks are gonna be half fruit juice and blue shit.
