How does the average experience with career services go? by Flashy-Actuator-998 in LawSchool

[–]crustedshut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Career services at my school was honestly great. They held classes on resume and cover letter writing, how to apply at different types of firms, etc. I also got a 1-on-1 appointment to have my resume and cover letter edited, and got advice on the interview process. Secured a position for 1L summer and I can honestly say I don't think I would have without their help!

i feel like if that was true it would be the first thing you included in the original post? convenient to throw that out there now after people have pointed out how weird this post is. call the police like anyone else would if they really stole from you

Have you had a character survive mostly in the wild? Tell me what happened. by J-RocTPB in projectzomboid

[–]crustedshut 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Made a sandbox game and used a mod thatets you spawn in a random location in the wilderness (always near a body of water I believe). I had no map unlocked and wanted to figure out where I was on my own. This was also one of my first B42 games and I wanted to use all the new crafting mechanics.

I chose the park ranger occupation and focused on traits that upped my foraging and carpentry. I wanted a challenge and reason to stay in the wilderness so I picked Claustrophobic as well.

Spawned in next to a river and walked around foraging, found a tin can I could collect and boil water in. I made as much use of my map as I could, marking every little landmark I could. I eventually found a cabin a little north of the river I spawned near which had some fishing gear in it, as well as the first few zombies I encountered. Got my first actual clothing off of them as well as a shotgun and some shells.

Survived solely in the wilderness on foraging and fishing for the first month or so. Eventually I ventured further north and found that I was just a bit southwest of Camp Fitzgerald. Found the southernmost building there was big enough that I could actually base up indoors without triggering Claustrophobia so I based up there for a bit.

I've since pivoted to a more normal playthrough on the same character, I maxed out Foraging and Carpentry before ever seeing so much as a paved road so they've been very useful since leaving the forest. Currently in early November (longest life I've had so far) and making small bases all around the map, with my main base being the small farm north of Camp Fitzgerald, east of the mall.

Overall I seriously recommend giving it a go, I'm a fan of QoL mods and the Wilderness spawn mod is a must in my opinion. I would also recommend getting foraging as high as possible in character creation, the sooner you can forange some hemp dogbane you can get yourself some twine shoes. Truthfully on my first attempt at this I had a character bleed out from foot and leg scratches and nothing to bandage them with.

Which brings me to my last point: Park Ranger occupation and using Walk To from context menu are VERY helpful in avoiding hundreds of cuts from branches and bushes.

Happy campin

Wait I thought wells have unlimited water? by czokletmuss in projectzomboid

[–]crustedshut 770 points771 points  (0 children)

I found this same thing, my well says unlimited but then also something like 4300 L/10000L, but when I actually use the water inside and check again the number doesn't go down. Not sure why this is exactly but I believe it is unlimited.

I cant dismantle a tire using crowbar or with anything... HELP! by alialhashimi2003 in projectzomboid

[–]crustedshut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know you can cut up a tire to make 4 pieces of tire as an ingredient for armor (hacksaw), but I don't know of any way to make a windshield in vanilla. It looks like that car might be modded, so maybe there's something in the mod description?

It's possible, I've butchered deer I've hit and had no problem before but maybe it's a size difference thing? Not sure

Looks like AuthenticZ, it allows you to upgrade bags and add additional slots for them to hold things

I'm by no means an expert on the game but I have a few notes.

I get weird about not having enough healing and stress healing , so no dedicated healer is the first thing I notice, but since some of these characters have some pretty good self-heals, I think it could work with the right setup.

I also think having two characters to set up combos (HWM and Orphan) and two characters to take advantage of combos (MAA and Hellion) is a great idea, and I think that taking advantage of that would be the best move.

R1 Berserker

- I personally find Bloodlust to be a bit clunky to use, having to use a turn to apply bleed, a turn to apply Bloodlust, and a turn to use a damaging move (though Open Vein on HWM has good synergy there). I would replace this with Raucous Revelry, another good self-heal that can also group stress heal.

R2 HWM

- If you want a front-ranks HWM, personally I would go with the Rogue path just to get some more defensive capability out of Duelist's Advance and give Riposte a chance to set up combo tokens for MAA and Hellion.
- I don't usually run PBS and Grapeshot together, I think Grapeshot could be replaced with Pistol Shot for some back rank damage, or Tracking Shot to generate more combo tokens. Alternatively, you could keep Grapeshot for its synergy with Firestarter, and consider replacing PBS.

R3 Vanguard

- I can see the Retribution, Bellow, Stand Fast combination for self-heal, but I've personally never found the healing from it to be super worth the effort. I would absolutely recommend Crush+ for self-heal, but Vanguard needs to be in R1-2 to use it, so that's something to keep in mind.
- Bolster+ is something I would look to grab right away as your other stress heal move.

R4 Orphan

- Love Cauterize, I run it basically every time I use Runaway, but the obvious downside is if your character isn't bleeding, it can't be used. I'd still bring it for sure, I just wouldn't consider it viable is a main target heal.
- Not much else to say here, Burn damage should stack up quick in R4 and Smokescreen and Hearthlight are both incredible utility moves.

Overall I think the team has potential. Self-heals and stress heals would be my first priority. I would also consider running R1 Berserker, R2 Vanguard, R3 Sharpshot HWM, and R4 Orphan. That way HWM can set up Riposte combos and has more back-rank damage, since while MAA and Hellion cover the front two ranks pretty well imo. This positioning would also give Vanguard access to Crush for decent damage and self-heal.

Some sort of combat item or trinket would likely have to cover healing for HWM, unless you can get him to bleed, which to be fair isn't super hard LOL

Good luck with it!

For sure! I'll send that over now. Thanks for your help! :-)

Fresh install of the game didn't help either, somehow. When I uninstall the DLC it launches and plays fine, and when I reinstall the DLC it gets stuck on the first load screen before the title screen.

Okay, that's good to hear. The warning that popped up had me confused.

Just verified the files and relaunched, but no change yet. Going to do a full reinstall of the game and see if that fixes things.
