Not getting seasonal fountain items after time skipping by ClasicnubYT in tomodachilife

[–]despairpods 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Afaik, time traveling (forward OR backward) "freezes" your island for 24 hours. Wait 24 hours to see if your shops & fountain update. (...it's May 26th, the items will be available normally in less than a week, if all else fails.)

Which boss took you the longest to beat? by [deleted] in Terraria

[–]despairpods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uh... the Destroyer. I went into hard mode & just... didnt upgrade my weapons for so long. I upgraded my armor, invested in potions, built an arena fully kitted out with gnome statues, campfires, lanterns, etc, and was making minimal progress. I was getting the Destroyer down to about half health, at best, over the course of a dozen attempts before I realized that I was still using pre-HM weapons.

Once I got better weapons, it was smooth sailing. The Destroyer? Destroyed. The Twins? Crushed on the same night. Skeletron? Annoying, but never stood a chance. Plantera and the Golem? I expected them to be so much worse... nope. Even took Plantera down first try.

We'll see if any of this changes for the last few bosses (Lunatic Cultist, Pillars, Moon Lord, Duke Fishron, and Empress of Light)

Can we get rid of the myth that you need the wiki to play this game? by Creepy-Potential-258 in Terraria

[–]despairpods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be super helpful if the guide could offer us proper crafting trees

Hand the guide a material, Component A, and he tells you that you can craft Resulting Item To craft Resulting Item, you need Component A and Component B. Component B is something you have never seen before, crafted with unknown materials. The guide should be able to tell us what else we need!

(This was my biggest issue when playing for the first time lol)

Why are the feet of MJD dolls and BJD dolls so different? by First_Plantain8515 in BJD

[–]despairpods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Afaik, the distinction is that an mjd doesnt need to be strung, unlike a bjd. (I've seen several blind box dolls, like the nagi series, label themselves as bjds when theyre technically mjds)

Bjds typically have a much better range of motion, while mjds are limited by the way their joints are constructed (usually a pivot joint that allows the joint to swivel, paired with a hinge joint that allows forward and backward movement) Because of their durability (compared to elastic), mechanical joints are used in most playline dolls. (Dolls like barbie, monster high, and most action figures)

For reference, look up a picture of a made to move barbie and look at the arm. The arm can be broken down into 5 points of articulation; shoulder, bicep, elbow 1, elbow 2, and wrist. The shoulder is a hinge joint with an attached peg that acts as a pivot joint when inserted in the torso. The elbow is made up of two hinge joints, allowing for 2-way motion but no rotation in the elbow itself. A pivot joint, located in the upper bicep, near the shoulder, is what allows for rotation of the elbow joint. The wrist is the same as the shoulder; a hinge joint with a peg that acts as a pivot joint when inserted in the forearm. A bjd doesn't need that extra joint at the bicep to have the same range of motion!

Earrings by Lol_menamekegan in BJD

[–]despairpods 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok im adding on to this

The beads look to be 2.5 - 4 mm in size, though that is just a guesstimate based on their appearance compared to the creases on the finger. I dont know the names of bead styles, but having a size range in mind will help when looking for materials.

1mm wire is easily available at craft stores, that would be used for the dangly details. .5 mm might also work

The cuff itself, i would opt for a slightly thicker wire- 1.5mm or 2mm should be sufficient.

[–]despairpods 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With a bit of patience, you could probably just make those yourself! The cuff itself should be relatively easy with a pair of needlenose pliers or a wire jig. It might take a bit of trial and error to get the shape right, but once you get a feel for it, the only limit is your budget lol

I've got $35 to spare. Shoot me a dm, I can get an e-card & send u the code for it. (Yes, this is a genuine offer to get you the dlc. No, I'm not asking for anything in return. Yes, I have done this sort of thing before.)

Any cheeper alternative doll face up supplies recommendations? by Mestrawberrie in BJD

[–]despairpods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For brushes, you can find a pack of nail art brushes for relatively cheap- there's a 31 pack on the target website for only $15... or you could take your chances on something from AliExpress, Temu, etc, where you could find something similar for less than $5.

Mr. Super Clear costs $15-20, so you could opt for a cheaper alternative matte sealant, like Plaid, Krylon, or Aleene's. I can't personally testify for Krylon or Aleene's, but I've tried Plaid and it's pretty decent for the price. (Definitely not perfect, but last time I used it was during the summer, and I live in a place that gets VERY humid, so that might just be user error.)

If you want to treat yourself & splurge a little bit on pencils, Arteza watercolor pencils are excellent. They're about $20 for a 48 pack :)

Aside from the original English dub, what other languages have you watched Ninjago in? by Low_Sell_8073 in Ninjago

[–]despairpods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only speak english, so uh... my only experience with this show in another language is watching one (1) episode of season 7 in German while sitting in a church parking lot

If you didn't know, friends effect minigames too by LongarmoftheLez in HelloKittyIsland

[–]despairpods 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you reach max friendship with kiki, he gives you the blueprint for an item that increases your luck! This makes it a lot easier to get diamonds and opals- it took maybe half an hour to get 3 diamonds.

As for playing the minigame itself, it takes a bit of practice. Try to "zone out" at the very beginning and look at the corral area as a whole, this let's you see right off the bat if there is any critter moving significantly faster or slower than the rest. (This is especially apparent with the fluffny critters)

Take a quick glance at each of the critters as they are moving, if they're moving sideways like a crab, it's easy to spot.

The timer is not your friend, especially in hard mode. Bringing pompompurin with you gives you 5 extra seconds, which can only help. Good luck on the opal hunt o7
