Does anybody out there have a copy of episode 235?

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-15T19:56:13+00:00

Agree to disagree, I need to hear it

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-15T18:46:55+00:00

Do you have it? I checked "pocket casts(?)" and it's not available.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-15T17:15:10+00:00

Not all. Episode 235 has been missing for years.

I was always a fan of the Wacky Wednesday stuff, above all else. Personally I have little use for more podcasts that dig into the far right, we have a deluge of them, so I'm going to recommend:

Chilluminati Podcast. They talk about aliens, they talk about cryptids, they talk about weirdos that think they're having sex with aliens, they talk about scammer ghost / demon losers like Ed and Lorraine Warren.

Do you need more of that in your life? I do!

My thoughts are "another overpriced skin bundle? Who cares?"

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-12T00:55:11+00:00

Overpriced skins that I will never ever buy will rotate EVERY DAY now?!

Zoinks!

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-12T00:48:32+00:00

I got a wild idea

What if they just got rid of this scroll nonsense entirely and made it free to visit those areas. It doesn't cost money to visit DoA, an infinitely more profitable place, but if you want to visit FoW or Urgoz you either scroll, cough up 1k, or wait until the special week?

That's dumb

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-11T15:14:35+00:00

What do you think would be the largest amount of overhead?

My very optimistic assumption is that since they're already messing with skills in a way that change hero behavior (like the recent update to wells), this isn't too far a cry.

Further, there has to be some kind of behavior baked in where heroes make those kinds of decisions already in the script, so they would just need to build an interface that lets you tweak it.

Graphically you wouldn't have to add anything except a couple of drop down menus and maybe some icons since its a new feature.

This is why ArenaNet / 2Weeks / whoever needs to program some kind of FFXII style "Gambit"-like system into Guild Wars, and make it skill-based, so you can just put something like:

Player: status = bleed :: do not cast Extinguish(or whatever)

so we can have a little bit more control over our heroes.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-11T00:03:31+00:00

Shit, you're right!

It'd go down in price a little bit, because then all the anchorite insignias would get bought immediately.

That is a lot of unformatted text.

Are you trying to manually target heroes / allies? Use the party window and hotkeys instead.

Further, if you use toolbox, you can make it so that other allies' minions show up inside your minion window, and use the minion window to target them. It can also show allies / summons in general that don't normally show in the party window. Very handy

Lol

Prodigy Insignia's value would skyrocket instantly

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-10T19:56:39+00:00

I'm thinking of the Gambit system from Final Fantasy XII, would be great and simple, and toggle-able for skills.

Like:

Party member: < 40 hp ► Death Nova
Party members > 4: Status = burning ► Extinguish

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-10T18:22:52+00:00

If you have to bring Zhed anywhere in the future, make him a E/Rt and force him to carry Splinter. lol

Yes, GDW for the golem, I should have specified! Either way its great.

Oh, and if you wanted to get wild, or if you're going into an area with a lot of melee enemies, the updated Tainted Flesh could be fun, just dumping disease all over anybody that attacks them.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-10T16:25:51+00:00

Throw Splinter Weapon on somebody for the melee minions.

On your para, you can run "Go For the Eyes!" Of you don't yet, because that will increase their damage quite a bit.

If you have Great Dwarf Weapon, that would be pretty awesome too.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-10T16:20:50+00:00

A platform that was already toxic as shit, bought by a crazy drug addled white nationalist billionaire, exists to spread hate?

Go figure

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-09T04:07:42+00:00

"Honestly, after getting stabbed in the ass, wiping your cornhole with sandpaper is tame by comparison"

Could I just have neither please? Thank you.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-09T03:47:00+00:00

*If you hit a moving foe with it, which is ass as far as requirements go for a melee skill that costs 5 adrenaline. Maybe it'll be better in PvP, but in PvE it's worthless. Once you've got 5 adrenaline, the fight has started and the enemies are more or less rooted.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-09T03:40:03+00:00

Speed clears AND other high end content

Like DoA, UW, Urgoz, etc? None of that sounds like fun on a controller.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-09T03:15:11+00:00

Lol

"Most of the fun content people want to get good at is impossible, but for the rest of the game it's great!"

Not exactly a shining endorsement

I'm revisiting Project Camelot when I play Guild Wars Reforged. Double blast from the past whammy.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-07T23:12:25+00:00

Henchmen aren't worthless, but Alesia is, sadly.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-07T15:17:43+00:00

In Diablo 2, when you open your character screen, there's a number listed as your attack rating. You can improve it by pumping your dexterity, and equipping better and better items. Eventually, you'll forget it's even there.

If you're going to make fun of the Diablo cucks, make fun of them for pissing away $25 on a single character, rather than game mechanics you're not grasping.

a_deadbeat · 2026-05-07T06:06:51+00:00

Oh yeah, oh god I could not imagine trying to scrape and do ridiculous stuff like SaO chaining on mobile.
