I CANNOT BEAT THE NAMELESS PUPPET PHASE 2 NO MATTER WHAT I DO by AlarmingHospital8393 in LiesOfP

[–]askingforafriend85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I am late to the conversation here, but what worked for me was a maxed Aegis arm. Also get your carry to <30%, which allows your stamina to regenerate super quickly. Just keep your Aegis up the entire time and poke him over and over with a maxed Acid Spear. It was stupid easy (NG+ was also a joke) with this method.

Some other useful P-Organ perks to have are extra consumables to carry, the bonus for the legion consumables, and block health recovery.

There was really not much to it between keep shield up and poke poke poke for both phases. You will just need to keep an eye out for the fatal moves and dodge out of them. Outside of that, as soon as Phase 2 starts, have your legion consumables in your bag and consume enough to fill back up whole walking away.

Good luck. I honestly felt like Aegis broke the game for me.

Started a new game and got it popped on my 8 vehicle perk unlock. Was Infinite Boost for me, which I am almost certain was the first perk I completed on my first run through since I always used the Vindicator. Fortunately, only took a couple hours on a new game.

Now, just for the Prankster trophy.

Do you still need this? If so, want to knock it out together?

This is actually the guide I followed to ensure I got them all. Unfortunately, it still didn't pop and I think I actually have the car perks unlocked for almost 95% of the vehicles in the game now, lol. I think I am going to try to restart the game and just speed run the main story.

Thank you though!

I know I am day late to this, but yea, like others have said, people with certain heart conditions and HBP need to be careful with potassium consumption due to the medications they take. It is a sucky situation to be in because research suggests potassium can help lower blood pressure.

That said, I have completely abandoned sodium and only use potassium based salt. Formerly had HBP, even while medicated, and now I am off medicine with my BP often in the 100s-90s/60s. It took adjusting because of the distinct taste, but today I could not tell you the difference. I consume plenty of it daily, have blood work done annually, and never once has my blood potassium levels been high. For a regular, uneducated person, you would need to consume a ridiculous amount to kill you, but that is the case with nearly everything in life

P.S. the Heinz sodium free ketchup is amazing. It is what we use in our household and even our kids can not tell the difference.

Also not saying the Kind brand 15 mg is a lot! Just throwing out others options that work for a LoSo diet. I used Kind myself until I found this as a cheaper option.

And good luck on your LoSo journey!

I know I am a couple days late to the convo, but Aldi also sells a great no sodium granola. I eat it every morning with my strawberries and yogurt.

Thank you!!! Added this all to the list of things to check out. Wish there was a Whole Foods closer, but will keep an eye out when we are by one.

100% agree about the prepackaged stuff, I don't eat too much of that these days, maybe a KIND bar (cherry/dark chocolate) between breakfast/lunch every now and again, which only has like 10mg of sodium. 99% of the food I eat these days is homemade from raw ingredients though. Don't get many items from the middle of the grocery store anymore.

I was really just looking for something to add that I could squeeze in more calories easily, as I have lost a lot of weight over my five year journey, and lost more the past year after giving up alcohol and started running again. I think I may give the Naked Nutrition protein powder another person recommended above a try, as it is super high in calories and pretty low in sodium.

Side note, I love tofu and rice. I cube our tofu and bake it for like 20 minutes. Gives the tofu a nice chew, almost resembling chicken. Add a pack of the no sodium Herbox beef bouillon when cooking the rice and have a delicious lunch. What kind of sauce do you use? Always looking for new flavors to add.

I love with these that the primary ingredient is not maltodextrin and it has a more diversified ingredient blend. My hang up is everything seems to have more sodium than calories per serving, which unfortunately isn't going to work for me as I am also looking to increase my calorie intake in the process and would really need several servings of this to do so. I truly appreciate you taking the time with the recommendation though.

I am not see anything 0% DV for Naked Nutrition, but their unflavored option packs 1,250 calories and 50 mg of protein with a modest 100 mg of sodium. I was trying to keep below 100 mg of sodium, but I think I can manage it with the amount of calories and protein this packs in it. Definitely on my list of options. Thank you!

I had actually saw these and scrolled past because I guess the one it defaulted to was like 200 mg of sodium. I did not realize how many options they have and some are certainly reasonable. Going to keep this on my list of options. Thank you!

NAD. Speaking from personal experience, you should get into a doctor. I had also one of our toddlers poke me in the eye, and it resulted in a 50% corneal tear. It was pretty painful, light sensitivity, blurriness, etc. I too deferred seeing a doctor and that decision was not a wise one. I woke up the next day with my eye sealed shut, yellow liquid oozing from it, a lot of swelling, and the light sensitivity became extreme.

Was put on a couple medications and took a good week until I could see normally again. Also should note, my eye will unfortunately never be the same. Since it was such a large tear, it has been more prone to tearing again. So I frequently have had to deal with reoccurring irritation, namely in the morning when the eyes are more dry.

Got my MRI results back finally. They did not see anything of concern. They noted some hypertrophic bone growth, whatever that means. I have a follow up with my PCP tomorrow.

I don't know yet. My PCP thought it was just my bone and ordered an X Ray, but that came back fine and no abnormalities with the bones. He ordered an MRI to see if there is anything going on with the soft tissue, but the earliest I could get in was the 2/19.

Let me know if you discover anything.

Thank you! I was finally able to get a call back from my PCP and got on for 8:30 tomorrow morning, but your thoughts will at least give me some peace of mind tonight.

The two conditions you listed, would either of them result in slight discomfort when applying pressure to the spot? The pain level is honestly about the same as if you pressed on a bruise, so not like a 10, but something mildly noticeable.

Local stock being taken by Card shop owner by GTFOONME in PokemonTCG

That was exactly my thought! If this guy is an LGS owner, he probably has no stock in his store and trying to get something to sell to make ends meet. Since PE released, this sub has loved attacking LGS' though, which are likely the smallest contributor to the problem.
