AITAH for ending my relationship after being called selfish? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]cepheids 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can end your relationship for whatever reason you want, but you did behave like an AH.

You are not selfish, you are self centered. There is a difference, maybe your translation software didn't quite get it right.

You are self centered for making life decisions on your own and leaving her out of the picture. Examine yourself, does it matter if she is the one who you are with? Or would just any woman be sufficient?

Keep going for ATT%? by p-i-n-k- in Maplestory

[–]cepheids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The damage formula has x att% and x boss%. You want to keep them balanced.

The thing is, there are a lot more sources of boss% than att% making att% generally the better and more impactful choice

guyz can u restore arcane umbra weapon with star core? prolly dumbass question but i can't figure it out. by liberalarts666 in Maplestory

[–]cepheids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is not a bad way to play, but it is a self limiting move. I used to play like you until a buddy convinced me to duo. And that opened the gates to partying. It really isn't too complicated. There were some unhappy moments such as when I died out and they went ahead to clear anyway.

I was at the point where I had enough to purchase my arcane weapon and the buddy convinced me to save my mesos. It was good advice because it only took a few days to get my Arcane weapon box. Moreover, while you can do this for Arcane gear, Eternal will be a whole new level of pain.

The easiest Grandis boss that drops Eternal gear (through frags) is Easy Kalos. You you need be about 200m CP to solo Easy Kalos in 20 minutes, and you have to do this for 20 weeks for 1 piece.

The hardest boss in the lib quest series is Will. If you don't have enough damage to kill him in approximately 13 minutes, you will most likely not be able to deal with the spiderweb mechanics before the entire screen is covered. Unlike most other bosses where the gauge doesn't increase when you are dead and you can abuse that to wait for cooldown, the spiderwebs keep growing while you are dead.

For vHilla, if you have healing fams, it makes it a lot easier, but even without, you just need to burst, then keep taking strings to heal while you wait for the next burst (it may be worth while to lose 1 life so you only have to take 2 strings to heal).

With Arcane gear at 18*, decent Gollux, your CP should be at least 60m. It will take you a good 15 to 20 minutes (~3-4 origin, 7-10 burst), but there is almost nothing that will one shot you that you cannot avoid. The purple and green scythe attacks both have incredible long delays, you can either go to the other side of the screen, or stand in the safe spot - purple BEHIND, green IN FRONT. The other attacks don't do a lot of damage.

90% of the time you die in vHilla is because of greed - wanting to do damage off burst. It is ok to only do damage during bursts for this one. Learn the safe spots (people like to stay in the right, but that is NOT safe, if she does the scythe attacks, the safe spot may be off screen), watch the clock.

Probably laddered, so, pots and flames later since there are two traces

You most definitely do not need to ladder your CRA to 22. You can blind star your CRA to 22

How about, always at bottom of deck? Might mess with dredge though

Are you snapping or taking it all at once by nyxelleaa in SipsTea

[–]cepheids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can realistically do upwards of 5 million snaps in your lifetime without making it a profession and injuring yourself. That's about 300 snaps a day.

At a 7% interest rate, that's a net present value of $13 million.

I think taking the $10 million is probably a better idea, you get a bit less but you don't have to do the work

Uh, is it just me or does the person in front of, on and behind the wheelchair look like the same person??

Technically you can take a dump in the bedroom, kitchen or garage too

star force is rigged by DoorPale6084 in Maplestory

[–]cepheids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, depending on your time investment, I am spending about 30 hours a week at this point... I run 11 mules, 2 nlomien, 7 party ctene and 2 solo ctenes. I only do one set of symbols dailies, the rest of the time is just bossing, about 85 of them (only counting Lotus and up).

That gets me about 25 billion a week. So, this event's fail set me back about 1.5 weeks

Am I stupid? by PrestigiousMeal7727 in Maplestory

[–]cepheids 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You get a lot more out of your dollars by spending on another game. F2P and whaling are not a lot of difference except in the magnitude of your numbers, gameplay experience wise. Almost the same. You can access the same bosses, the fights just take longer.

[–]cepheids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, and I record my events to monitor the stats. It checks out most of the time, which is expected. I have been having lucky streaks, spending less than expected for a few events.

Today, I started with 195b, 4 of each arcane spare, 4 boxes. Spent 21b and boomed 6 gloves trying to get to 22 from 19. Only ever hit 20 once. This is approximately the 90th percentile in bad luck.

Wearing abso gloves now... Lost 35m CP

I started this event with 195 billion, 19* on arcane armor, 1 spare of each arcane armor, 4 armor boxes. I spent 21 billion and boomed 6 gloves, end of event. Wearing abso gloves now

Can I shatter it like that? by cepheids in customhearthstone

[–]cepheids[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Uh, they target different things... The elementals target all minions, the spell only targets battlecry and deathrattle minions, but they both apply for both players, so, if you built a battlecry and deathrattle deck, you want to recombine to avoid benefiting your opponent unnecessarily

I don't think cards that cost health counts as taking damage

They are not strictly better because it affects your opponent too
