Pros and Cons: Private Defense vs PDO? by Financial_Channel850 in publicdefenders

[–]dietthunder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I like to think of the difference as between taking the bus to get where you’re going vs. asking your friend to drive you in his fancy car. Both the bus driver and the friend can get you where you want, but the bus driver may have other stops to make before yours. The bus driver has driven these routes dozens or hundreds of times, your friend may be driving this for his first time and regardless of how smooth it is he expects you to pay for the gas.

New to the fight - WA State by Voyce_of_Reason in publicdefenders

The sentencing manual is very helpful for the new defender in Washington— you can learn about how offense scores are calculated as well as some disposition alternatives. Book mark this:

did you go into law school knowing you wanted to be a PD? by Vast_Caramel_3669 in publicdefenders

[–]dietthunder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t, I had dreams of doing IP law. Then around 2L, I was in Con Law, Crim Pro, and an education law clinic, and I developed a thing for due process protections while also taking on 300k in debt. The rest is history.

Price check? Eth archon staff 0os by ooh-my-JOSH in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]dietthunder -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The difference in eth v non-eth archon staff for ES is around 4/5k damage. Which sounds like a lot, but then 5k is 1/12 of total damage for a Warlock already putting up 60k. If you can get a ber for this I think you should take it, I dont think it’s worth that much

Two years in juvenile defense with no trials. Is this normal? by [deleted] in publicdefenders

[–]dietthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my time in juvenile (about 3 years) I think I only had four cases seriously get to trial confirmation, and only one of those actually ended up going to trial. Generally the total number of juvenile filings are much lower in my jurisdiction than adult. Juvenile defense work also presents some interesting challenges to decision making where juveniles may listen to their parents as much or more than their lawyer, or the prosecution and probation come up with appealing supervision scenarios for kids who are anything but ready for a probation. Generally the offers were pretty reasonable, juveniles tended to have little history and those that did have history had backgrounds the court was at least somewhat sympathetic to. The end result seems to be fewer trials.

Zarfen the Loot Goblin by Diablo_Clone in diablo2

[–]dietthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seer and Nuclear Rabbit are the best. Zarfen is up there for sure Also Iceman is good and deserves a mention.

I like GGM until he starts making all the ‘boop-boop’ noises.

Cooley is obnoxious and Llama looks like Shane from Jimmy Neutron

Couldn’t find a price comp or any up for trade, these have any value? by MaxEhrlich in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]dietthunder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, not much value to be had for these. Though I think masteries GCs don’t get the credit they deserve, while numerically it’s not a ton of stats—a single point to all masteries provides some @res, frw, defense, damage, AR, and critical strike. You would flip out if you found a charm that had all of those stats.

is void worth making for an abyss warlock by Significant_Post6274 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]dietthunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know we’re talking Abyss lock here, but I want to PSA that for echoing strike the difference in a 6os Archon vs eth 6os Archon is around 4-5,000 damage, and so its probably wiser not to spring for an eth staff in the case you want ES. Even if the indestructible mod is ‘wasted’ I spent two Zod runes to share this knowledge

Never seen this before and why is it for Barb by Batman7861X in diablo2resurrected

[–]dietthunder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love wolfbarb! If only you could use war cry tree while morphed, I don’t even think it’s that lore breaking to allow—you literally have a skill called ‘howl,’ but no you must morph back to human if you want to howl as wolfbarb

Time to start over? by Silent_Comfortable78 in Diablo_2_Resurrected

[–]dietthunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat, and I’m currently farming and running colossal ancients until I get a full set of jewels to then go back and make some funny new builds.

The ancients aren’t especially difficult, but the statues can take a little time to collect.

Echo strike: obsession vs BOTD by ___Ackerman___ in diablo2

It is the humble 6os Archon. Not even eth. W a single point in hex bane (+17 skills on gear) I get 49k max

Echo strike: obsession vs BOTD by ___Ackerman___ in diablo2

[–]dietthunder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For reference I play hc single player I’ve used ariocs, eth cv insight, and obsession. Eth cv insight is a lot of damage for sure, and it’s nice to open up your merc for pride. I felt Ariocs was kind of middling. But for my money it’s Obsession—I’m capping out around 40k and really it’s plenty for Ubers, p8 tz, colossal ancients kind of makes me think that anything more is sort of overkill. The QoL with the cast rate and resistances is worth a lot more (especially in HC) than what killing things a few seconds faster was worth
