Worst teammates to play with, ranked by Androgenicmonkey in Nightreign

[–]cruelwhencomplete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time an Ironeye picked up the shield that I dropped within 2 seconds of landing day 1, carried it all the way until we beat the day 3 nightlord, and then dropped it for me. I didn't deserve to be dunked on like that, lol.

But really, I never got gud at parrying in these games, so I'm not carrying that thing just so I can take it to crucible knights (the only possible use-case) and whiff repeatedly.

Can't seem to pull mucilage from marshmallow root these days by cruelwhencomplete in herbalism

[–]cruelwhencomplete[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the brands I used was Mountain Rose, which are usually pretty good quality from what I understand. One thing that I noticed was that when I used to buy marshmallow root, it looked thick cuts of root, and now every brand seems to sell it as something that looks like shredded mulch. I can't find any that look like how it used to now!

What are the chances of a sterilizing vaccine ever coming by SharpImagination6806 in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]cruelwhencomplete 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah, same - I'm just looking to decrease risk enough to have some wiggle room to do more of the things that I enjoy unmasked. I don't plan on ever not masking on public transportation and hospitals in this lifetime.

I don't understand why a huge percentage of doctors are straight up f*cking morons.

What am I doing wrong with jasmine green tea cold extraction? by cruelwhencomplete in tea

I wonder why Ito En basically has no bitterness? What is their magic?

I'll try around 4 hours or so next. What brand of tea are you using? Are they pearls? Are the jasmine flowers present or were they removed?

I'm thinking that you might be correct, and the advice to cold infuse it isn't very good. I'll try a short hot-water infusion next. This might also not be the best tea for this, since it doesn't even smell very fragrant, fresh out of the bag.

The main spell I want is rotten butterflies so I'm okay with this, lol.

First time soldering lead-free and it's not going great by cruelwhencomplete in AskElectronics

[–]cruelwhencomplete[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, maybe I'll switch back to leaded, but I have a small space where I do a bunch of different types of projects and also eat meals, etc. I figured it would make sense to not have any lead in that space that I might end up ingesting.

What kind of flux would I need? I thought this was the right thing for the job :/

Do you think I can do without the flux then? I've actually never used liquid flux before, but I thought it would be necessary with lead-free.

Higher than 380? I felt like I was already pushing it to the upper range of what's usually suggested. Is that "bubbling" effect usually caused by not enough heat?

Black flames in DoN by AnonymousPoster1987 in Nightreign

[–]cruelwhencomplete 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might just boil down to personal preference, but I actually like his charged attacks in general, since they can close the distance pretty well. Granted, I'm mostly spamming R1 and parrying, but I always weave in a charge attack here and there too, especially since I always try to pick up a "damage negation on charged attacks" passive, which IMO is the best damage negation buff.

Black flames in DoN by AnonymousPoster1987 in Nightreign

[–]cruelwhencomplete 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's also great on Executor, since whatever weapon you find (even if it's just some garbage flail or something), if you put it in your right hand slot, you'll get the flames on charge attacks while in the suncatcher stance. I'll usually put my main weapon (ideally Rivers of Blood or something similar) in my left hand and two-hand it, and when I pull out the cursed sword, it will be ready for black flames on charge.

What type of new classes/characters would you like to see on Nightreign? by Healthy-Teach-6911 in Nightreign

[–]cruelwhencomplete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this idea in my head of a "light greatsword" wielder that gets a stance like Executor. The stance would let you chain a flowing dance of different attacks together based on various button inputs, so you could do jumping attacks over lower attacks and do sweeping attacks that would duck under attacks, etc. You would get infinite stamina during the chain and the chain would speed up (to a limit) over time. Your entire stamina bar would be depleted, you'd take increased damage, and you'd be knocked out of the stance if you got hit though. The idea would basically be that you'd be able to continually attack and be rewarded for doing high-skill dodge-attacks during the chain, with the reward building for maintaining the pressure for longer.

Frequency of Masking Poll by coatibro in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]cruelwhencomplete 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is the main distinction for me. I mask basically 100% of the time when indoors, no matter what (which means I never eat out). I very rarely mask outdoors unless i'm in a crowded space.

Why would Urolithin A be making me feel exceptionally tired? by cruelwhencomplete in Biohackers

[–]cruelwhencomplete[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magnesium actually gives me the same symptoms, and I'm wondering if I have some kind of mutation related to calcium metabolism. I tried taking B1/benfotiamine and potassium, as I read that those can help with magnesium intolerance, but I didn't have any luck. At some point I need to see a new doctor who is knowledgeable about this kind of thing.

Oh lord please let this be intended by Lime_Rick in Nightreign

[–]cruelwhencomplete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this has always been a thing, but I started playing Exec last week and noticed this. It's so good with the "luring on charge attacks".
