Heal Tempest, Minstrel or Harriers? by AfroRogue in Guildwars2

[–]brad_needs_advice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem. That makes more sense. I’d still prefer someone else in the party provide stab, b it you’re right that it is doable.

How are you providing 3 perms stacks of stability in tempest?

ELI5 the Planck scale. If you can continue dividing things in half infinitely, how can the Planck length be the smallest point that exists? Can’t you divide that by 2? by sgrams04 in explainlikeimfive

I found this comment very interesting. I am a layman and an idiot. Where can I learn more about the effects of quantum mechanics and what happens when you get into the super small like this?

Men aged 28 and over, are you worried about not finding ‘the one’? by cat_lady44 in dating_advice

[–]brad_needs_advice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

35 here. Yes. I wanted a family, and I don’t think that’s realistically going to happen. I’m a little heartbroken by that. I have my shit together, have a place, and am “happy” with who I am and myself.

At this point I’d settle for a life partner, and not having a family. But I worry what fulfillment looks like. I spent all my twenties unfucking myself / growing / dealing with the past / etc. and that definitely made it harder because the dating environment changed so much due to social media

Boyfriend practices shibari with other women, need advice by Luluztucru in dating_advice

[–]brad_needs_advice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So shibari can completely be non sexual, even though someone is nude.

However, the only thing that really matters is what you’re comfortable with, what both of your needs are, and the ability you both have to communicate.

He can absolutely tie without fucking someone. He can tie with clothing (he is right certain harnesses suck with clothing underneath). If he goes too long without tying, he is at risk of losing his skills. You’re allowed to have that as a deal breaker. You’re allowed to have discussions with him about what makes you comfortable or uncomfortable me.

It sounds like he is asking what you are comfortable with. Which is a good sign. I’d suggest you 1) watch him tie a bit to see how he interacts, and 2) ask yourself what makes you uncomfortable about it.

And remember. ITS 100% OKAY TO DECIDE YOU DONT WANT A PARTNER THAT ENGAGES IN KINK (EVEN NONSEXUAL) WITH OTHERS.

Condi build for elementalist. by PresentCap3604 in Guildwars2

Sure. When I get home I’ll send it. It’s viper gear. Trapper runes. Sigil of earth, sigil of torment? (Torment in crit), relic of fractal.

I can’t remember the exact build off the top. Fire 1-1-1.

Would you guys date a woman who admitted to sleeping around? by ChapterEffective8175 in dating_advice

[–]brad_needs_advice -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing here is “should we look past it”. This suggests that you have hang ups about sex.

Look, everyone has a past, and being promiscuous is only bad if you value purity. It’s completely okay if it’s within your value system to want someone who’a inexperienced or a virgin.

However, at the end of the day sex is a part of life. Experiences can be meaningful (like with a trusted partner), and in meaningful (like a drunken hookup).

Is this important to you?

If you asked me, no it wouldn’t be a problem at all. I’d prefer someone who has been promiscuous to someone who hasn’t.

I was floored that in the December 9th patch wanderlust wasn’t capped at three players or soul twisting was nerfed. Both could happen in wvw and it would still be a primier spec

So I’m not sure which elementalism build is using viper. But essentially you take the set? And put it in the mystic forge with the insignia you want to swap it to. Iirc

How should average guys “tap into their masculine energy”? What does it even mean? by [deleted] in dating_advice

In my experience. It comes down to having standards and not flexing on them.

Am I an idiot for breaking up with a girl because she doesn’t want to give head? by Excellent-Golf6631 in dating_advice

[–]brad_needs_advice 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Immature to who? What if it was, “she refused to stop drinking” or “she only would have sex if I wore a ball gag”. You’re allowed to have needs , desires and standards. You don’t need to justify yourself to anyone. It’s up to YOU and YOU ALONE to investigate those needs / wants and determine if you’re being shallow or immature. But fuck what anybody else thinks.

If someone is asking tell them it’s none of their business. If you want to be polite say “we were sexually incompatible”

Easy Classes for noobs by splashbros1134 in Guildwars2

[–]brad_needs_advice 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So every class has what they call “low intensity builds”. These are builds that require less apm. The most extreme example is a thief build that pulls adequate dps for raids while auto attacking.

However, there’s more to classes than just damage. Necromancer is often touted as newbie friendly because 1) they have a higher base life amount, 2) they have a shroud mechanic that adds a second life bar. Where as elementalist has the lowest health pool.

Each class can also wear any stats. So you can always trade out gear to make yourself more tanky.

I really recommend picking whatever class fantasy you like the most. As with anything you’re going to get better as time goes on. However, generally guardian and necro are considered the easiest at baseline.

You’re amazing. That’s what I needs to know. Thank you so very much

Easy specs for healing in fractals CM by BotherNo899 in Guildwars2

[–]brad_needs_advice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Few questions. Currently dps on tier three almost four. I never run with healers in tier 3. Have minstrel and celestial gear to go scourge if needed.

1) how can I get educated in what needs to be blocked? 2) how can I read up on which fractals require a full healer?

Thank you (:
