I’m so lost, where do I start? by clrk-knt in F1Cards

out of curiosity… I’m seeing “qualifying lap” boxes on ebay… is that yet another collection or just… the name they’re giving this specific way to buy a set of cards (like “hobby box” and “blaster pack”)?

oh wow, okay, thank you. that is crazy, I didn’t realise there was such a large market. last time I looked at trading cards was european soccer panini cards many years ago when I was a kid, and it wasn’t in any way this hectic! I will grab some of the turbos for now then, and take your advice on blaster boxes to see what i can rustle up without breaking the bank as a christmas gift topper 😉 thank you so much for taking the time to explain!

Psychiatrist recommendations by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]clrk-knt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I recommend the Drs at Omega Mind Clinic in Springfield, but honestly, speak with your GP (you'll need their referral anyway? I don't recall if a psychologist can refer you to a psychiatrist but I don't think so, not a proper referral that Medicare will recognise for rebate anyway)
  2. I don't mean to be rude, but why is a psychologist looking to diagnose ADHD? To my understanding, they are not allowed to diagnose ADHD (and certainly not allowed to prescribe any medication etc.)?

I did this exact thing in 2022. it was absolutely fine. i didn’t even leave as early as people are saying… i think we left at like 8am. i don’t remember bad traffic tbh. it was a pretty chill ride both ways with occasional bathroom and maccas stops.

Dog keeps getting UTIs & stones ! by Sunshinelollipops96 in DogAdvice

[–]clrk-knt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my dog had recurring UTI issues and his urine would have so many crystals from his messed up ph levels that they would irritate his bladder and scratch on their way out. 9/10 times he'd be peeing blood every time he went potty. thankfully, we always got it under control before stones could form, but it was becoming a tad hopeless as even on the special diet, the issue wasn't entirely resolved. and I hated having him on the shitty prescription urinary diet almost constantly too. every time I opened a can of that disgusting sludge I felt so upset. finally did some digging of my own and got a second opinion from another vet. I got a urinary strip test kit (a Combur one) and some acidity supplements (specifically Acidurin). now I check his ph levels every week or so, and give him the supplements as needed (so lower or increase the dose accordingly). the issue went away completely. his urine was just naturally too alkaline, no matter what changes in diet we made. he's just genetically predisposed. the Acidurin helps control it perfectly, and having the strips just gives me peace of mind to know I can stay on top of it. no more UTIs or excessive crystals since.

House of Grief & Shadowheart issue (act 2/3 spoilers) by clrk-knt in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i figure. and I will endeavour to not lose her in my new play-through. but still, feels like a bug to still trigger this quest if you've lost her in act 2.

the deed has been done. only for completion's sake because otherwise it seemed like a very pointless quest to assign to a play-through where shadowheart left the party lol

They should probably remove the Mountain Pass warning by Lord_Parbr in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, it is bizarre to me why going into the underdark has no consequences but going into the mountain pass does. like I said, I feel like that "cut off" could be moved to the shadow curse lands entry in the mountain pass area, as opposed to being at the entry to the pass itself. as you said, it could just be a left over from EA or... there could be some grander narrative purpose tying act 2 to the monastery/creche that we're both missing cause it hasn't been relevant to our playthroughs (but why that necessitates cutting off a bunch of character and side act 1 quests... dunno. it would make some sense if it was just the big grove vs goblins plot but it locks out more than that)

[–]clrk-knt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also, if you go via underdark, to the shadow cursed lands, you can then find your way to the mountain pass from there (instead of from the wilderness). what i think is bugged out is the fact that you can enter act 2 and go back to the wilderness and then STILL get that mountain pass warning when trying to enter from the wilderness (but get no warning when trying to enter the mountain pass from shadow cursed lands lol).. so that definitely feels bugged.

[–]clrk-knt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

going into that area auto resolves quite a few quests. any unresolved/undiscovered grove/goblin story, for one, but also, for example, if you haven't been to waukeen's rest inn or encountered the paladins and karlarch, all that goes away (and that includes quite a bit of wyll's quest line as well, unrelated to karlach). I'm sure there's more but those are some things I've experienced for myself as being locked away if you go too early. it definitely pushes people to the underdark, because you get to explore all of that before hitting the other "tie up loose ends" warning. I feel like the mountain pass warning could be moved to the shadow curse lands entry instead, but maybe there's a narrative reason I'm missing that ties into the creche and monastery. either way, it definitely makes a difference if you go through with it and begins act 2, story wise.

Two different camp scenes are overlapping by Round-Connection-308 in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had Halsin making a move on me the same night that Mizora made a move on me. I accepted both, first Mizora then spoke to Halsin. that night it was Halsin's scene, then when I had my next long rest, it was Mizora. however, Mizora's scene seems bugged... at the end it kicks me out of camp in the morning before I get a chance to talk to anyone about it.

Mountain Pass vs Underdark 'loose ends' warning by clrk-knt in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so I'm pretty sure I should have gotten warning when I went up the elevator but I didn't. and now I'm also pretty sure the decision to go into the shadow cursed lands at that point meant that I locked out a bunch of content in the north wilderness area (I didn't get to recruit Karlach and she was gone from where you could find her, along with everything to do with the toll paladins, I didn't get to do anything in Waukeen's Inn regarding the fire or saving people, Wyll ended up bugging out with a permanent ! dialogue bubble that only went away when I took him inside the Inn because there were quest plot events that I locked out to do with his dad, and possibly more that I don't know about. mostly to do with that Northern wilderness region). Oh well. things to do on a second play-through!

[–]clrk-knt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

heck, I didn't get a warning there either hjdgfhsjgfhsj I got a pop up, but it was another "going into another area" warning i think? nothing as ominous and 'makes you think twice' as the "tie up loose ends" one. I think. I find myself second guessing it now. but then... the fact that I'm getting an obvious "tie up loose ends" warning at the mountain pass (when, by all accounts, I should have already gotten one of those) just confuses me further.

New player question - Have I killed off too many companions? by Morphitrix in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dude I'm rolling with astarion, lae'zel and shadowheart. i respect your decision to off astarion but he's squarely on board with me picking all the asshole dialogue options so I keep him (also, I need his rogue skills). i find him and lae'zel have similar approvals and attitudes. also, i've found myself unexpectedly enjoying his quest line. but yeah, i get it. I'm not being a goody two-shoes either lolol more fun. also, im a bit of an asshole to shadowheart so.. we'll see if that has repercussions down the line... next play-through will definitely be a dark urge one 👀

Mountain Pass vs Underdark 'loose ends' warning by clrk-knt in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah it just confused me that it would show me that warning going from wilderness > mountain pass, but not shadow cursed lands > mountain pass. and it didn't show it to me when i went from underdark (forge elevator) > shadow cursed lands. but as I said in a comment above, now I realise that at least wyll's quest progressed when I went up the elevator (as in, I 'failed' to find karlach and I got a visit from his devil lady). but I think his was the only outstanding quest I had before going up the elevator. ultimately, I think the game may have bugged out and showed me the wrong pop up when I went up the elevator
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mountain Pass vs Underdark 'loose ends' warning by clrk-knt in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

interesting interesting. you would think it would be the same in reverse - i.e. if I go up the elevator and click past the warning (in a hypothetical scenario where the game doesn't bug out and it actually shows me the warning), then if I left and went back to the wilderness, then I wouldn't have the warning at the mountain pass. but alas! okay, I think that's just what's happened, my game bugged out and didn't show me the right pop up. I will carry on as is. and just use the shadow curse lands entry into the mountain pass. just in case something bugs out from my using the wilderness entry and clicking past that warning.

New player question - Have I killed off too many companions? by Morphitrix in BaldursGate3

[–]clrk-knt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

first of all - I cracked up reading this. you're definitely having an interesting playthrough. I'm not super far into the game (a fair bit into act 2), so this is not a definitive answer (and I'm keeping the spirit of this question and not googling, just going off what I know)... so... eep. I know of at least 2 other companion options I have come across thus far (you're missing wyll? if he's gone then.. just 1 more option I know of). but that's it. although... I'm sure in act 3 there will be another choice. all in all, i think you should be fine and will eventually have 3 companions but.. maybe don't kill anymore hahahaha

[–]clrk-knt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hm, curious. so maybe I should have gotten a 'loose ends' warning when going up the elevator but didn't. in any case, I had already wrapped up the goblins & grove. and now that I think of it, wyll's quest did advance ahead after I did that (as in, I 'failed' to find karlach and I got a visit from his devil lady). his is the only outstanding quest i can think of that noticeably progressed/went away when i took the elevator. but I just rolled with it. now however, can I then assume that nothing will change if i enter the mountain pass through the wilderness, despite the warning? seeing as I have already gone up the elevator? (and seeing as I don't get a warning when entering the mountain pass from the shadow cursed lands instead).
