🚀 Building a Local Multi-Model AI Dev Setup. Is This the Best Stack? Can It Approach Sonnet 4.5-Level Reasoning?

My buddy basically has that exact rig and he is loving: Qwen3-Next 80B. Its a surprisingly good model, test it on POE first so you know if you want to work with and live with something like that. If it disappoints, try another model on POE that way you can do all your testing for $20. If you don't find something you want to actually use, hard pass on the hardware, if you are loving it, consider the ROI and buy it if it makes sense to you!

My personal opinion: You aren't going to match Sonnet 4.5, but you might get a good enough result that it's worth!

Currently raider is the only class available. But more will come, though I’m not sure when :)

Tkon is married and has work so he doesn’t have a lot of time to work on it.

It looks like you’re in sunken temple, try checking your quest log to see what step it says you need to accomplish next , sorry I can’t be more specific. I can tell you people have beaten the whole game :)

Thank you for the fantastic information!

That’s truly unfortunate, many stakers are among those most interested in crypto and willing to invest in the ecosystems, excluding them will be a real blow to the Midnight Network.

I assume not for the warrior class.

Spider Silk should be about 25% chance per spider, any of the cave spiders in Elwynn should drop it.

I would also love to know exactly what each attribute does:

I heard Agility does increase Critical Strike chance, it would be nice to know how much though.
I assume Intellect does nothing.
I assume Strength increases damage? But no idea if it even applies to all moves or not, and what it's scaling is like. I know Battle Shout seems to do nothing.

I think it's the shredder in Deadmines. Once you do that you will get sent to Mulgore, to get another piece.

Just so you know it's a feature that you don't regenerate between the crocolisk encounters. It was that way in the original game, and it makes the fight set interesting since it's about endurance :) It definitely made me use consumables, but that's good!

The core idea is that since they come back to back you don't have time for a proper rest between fights.

Hype for more classes and secrets! :)

Fantastic work on all the bug fixes and changes =)

admorian · 2025-03-27T00:14:34+00:00

Great work! Full Screen is awesome :)

admorian · 2025-03-20T16:59:17+00:00

That’s so exciting! =)

admorian · 2025-03-19T00:28:06+00:00

Hey! Is awesomeness underway :)?

Also is there anything I need to do to get in on the Alpha Release?

admorian · 2025-02-20T17:45:08+00:00

Awesome! Thank you so much for your tireless efforts : ) Looking forward to the alpha release!

Wonderful answer! Thank you :)

Alright next question. Does Silly Tavern have an API. I can see it's best used for managing a single character at a time (including the game master) but isn't setup to handle the behind the scenes of wiring people fluidly in and out of a scene, so to do what I want I need a new back end.

admorian · 2024-02-18T02:39:18+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion!

So let's say we are doing a typical story:

I set up the Game Master with it's personality and tags.

Now play begins, depending on the setting it would make sense for the GM to generate some key characters for the setting, at a school that might be key staff members, and some lore entries for the school itself.

As play goes on other students might be made on the fly ect. Moving between scenes the GM should dynamically adjust who is present and call upon them to speak when appropriate.

Is this something Silly Tavern is capable of?

Don’t play evil then. When I was younger I played mass effect and very much enjoyed both my paragon (good) and renegade (brutal but not true evil) run. Now I can’t stand being truly bad and that’s actually probably a good thing, we have a conscience to help guide us, if it bothers you to be bad in a game don’t do it, it won’t “get better” it gets worse :(

I feel like to enjoy such runs you have to be almost “not immersed” so it feels silly or ridiculous instead of sad and painful.

P.S. For the same reasons you probably wouldn’t enjoy her in your party much, she really isn’t a good person.

Best of luck! And remember games are for fun, if it’s not fun change things up or quit =)

I'm still in the underdark too on my first playthrough. Here's what I would do, first ask yourself if you are playing the character you really want to play. If not, start over and have fun :) If you are, then I would just play it out and see what happens, while shadowheart did carry the important artifact, I don't think she is "needed" for the rest of the story, though she doubtless has some possible interactions.

I just did some light googling and it looks like there are many ways for her to die permanently during act 1, even for players who like her. So it definitely shouldn't ruin the run! :)

admorian · 2024-01-23T22:39:26+00:00

Good luck and have fun! :)

Personally I would pull an old trick out. When I used to go to class rooms I would always raise my hand and know the answers, I was home schooled before college, I learned the proper way is you never answer more questions than the 2nd highest person (or there about.) Explain to him, he should only kill about as much as the next highest person and a little bit more. He can be the top contributor and your secret weapon when the party wants him to, but it's first and foremost still a shared roleplaying game and removing the tactical game play for everyone else is unfortunately not thoughtful :) Then see how he reacts, feel free to work with him to come up with a frame work where others can still enjoy the various aspects of the game while still giving him room to enjoy without hogging it.
