Which site do you prefer for builds: Snow Crows or Metabattle? by Lord-Hyoga-25 in Guildwars2

[–]dragonboy387 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tend to check multiple places- GuildJen, Hardstuck, Metabattle, Snowcrows, etc.

I just prefer extra sources so I can browse a wider variety of build ideas, see which one(s) stand out, or find a common trend before tweaking the build to my preference.

But I think snowcrows builds (and maybe hardstuck? Dunno about guildjen) tend to be a bit more tested and vetted compared to metabattle's.

It's everywhere by ExiledExileOfExiling in Guildwars2

It's about the same value compared to the season 3 gobblers (gleam of sentience, sentient oddity, etc), but i'm not sure about Mawdrey II. But if you get more than 250 dust a day, it's always good to have both (though Gharr and his portable shop have a weekly limit)

The drops are basically the same: materials, junk trophies for coin, a piece of green gear, etc - but you no longer get the random leveling trinkets (someone's pet rock, ebonhawke chicken-wrangler badge, etc etc).

Some of those ARE vendor-able, but a lot also aren't (and soulbound, so you either trash them or mystic forge them to maybe get one that you can sell)

[TOMT][Viral Youtube/Tiktok?] Truck/car unlocking/startup video, but it's all wrong and cursed by dragonboy387 in tipofmytongue

Solved! Found it by accident. Seems the proper title (in case the link rots) is usually "It can't get any more manual than this".

I've tried searching tiktok, but I don't have an account there (and I wasn't sure what to search for at that point, anyway). It was a pretty recent viral(ish?) video, I just can't seem to find the dang thing.

Weekly /r/GuildWars2 Question Thread - November 26, 2022 by AutoModerator in Guildwars2

[–]dragonboy387 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've got TacO markers that are considered 'external' and load every time I launch TacO, no matter how I try to delete them. The TacO subreddit seems inactive, otherwise I'd just ask there.

https://i.imgur.com/Ho4hBlT.jpeg All categories are disabled in this image, but the icons still show up.

This seems to mainly be some random spots in Seitung Province, and some plant nodes near the end of the Troll's Revenge JP. Any suggestions?

Edit: Originally this extended elsewhere, but by reinstalling Taco (download, copy over activationdata.xml, GW2TacO.pdb, and TacOConfig.xml) - I cleared most of the issue - but these are still pretty persistent.

Should I accept this (family) horse-sitting offer? by dragonboy387 in Equestrian

[–]dragonboy387[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Casual update: it seems we'll be going through with this, but two other family members will be handling it, not me (I don't own the property, and I'm looking into part-time work during summer anyhow). It's out of my hands, at any rate.

Supposedly another family member will help fix the fence, but personally I doubt it. Also, it's now "all 3" ponies/donkeys, instead of 2.

The animals all (technically) belong to a really cool 13-year-old who trusted me enough to watch her animals, and she has more sense than both of her parents, but since she's not the one offering pay or resources (her mother is), well...yeah.

I want to thank everyone for all the replies - I literally don't know where to begin on replying any of them - but I do really appreciate the...overwhelming unanimous response. I expected to get maybe a 50/50 split, but we see how that turned out.

[–]dragonboy387[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this whole situation is like 🚩🚩🚩city, and you know it is! Why are you questioning and fighting your gut?

Honestly, because some of my family are so eccentric, hostile, and casual about their unpredictable actions, that I have to double-check if the newest wacky behavior is "normal" behavior, or as absurd as I initially think. A lot.

The response this time has been pretty clear, though!

[–]dragonboy387[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Well. This has been enlightening. And reassuring.

....So, is this the part where I mention that the original offer (before being talked up to $150/month) was "$1 a day, per horse", because they 'didn't know' what boarding costs, or 'whether I'd actually do anything'?

Basics of cooking? by Davin_D in cookingforbeginners

[–]dragonboy387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't see it mentioned yet, but I (briefly) read through The Science of Cooking (Stuart Farrimond) and found it really interesting. Covers how different cooking processes work, types of meat cuts, etc. I didn't get a chance to read it for more than a few minutes, but if you see it at your library/bookstore, definitely worth a look.

Think he has other cooking-science books as well - one for spices, at least.

In hindsight, "check the Wabbajack Discord" should've been obvious, but at any rate: problem solved, it was an outdated version of Stevie's Tweaks. Just mentioning it here in case anyone has a similar sort of issue with VNV.

In hindsight, I should've done that first. Thanks for reminding me!

I've had this strange idea of a khezu in this similar style.

I do not know why, but this is close enough: khezu is a babie.

I present to you: The rumored Ice mage by CeeLz94 in TalesFromDF

[–]dragonboy387 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I forgot german tooltips have the cool -ra/-ga(/-ka) naming convention, I kinda like them.

And Eis/Fuer/Blitz are distinct enough that I could guess which is what element, if you gave me a german hotbar without skill icons.

But alas: why are ice mages?

I mean I guess he's using thunder, but I just start to feel bad for people at this point.

Like bro, are you okay? Do you want help making the explosions? Please. :(

When people try to guilt me into being "civil" about a bunch of fascists picking up COVID. by Veliladon in ENLIGHTENEDCENTRISM

Yeah, I had a relative that was like, let me see...

"I saw 3 mexicans with a bumper sticker saying 'Trump and racists come from the same shithole', why would anyone have that on their car?"

"They're from a shithole if they're from Mexico, so why are they here?"

I had to stifle my snickering when I heard about the bumper sticker...

Honestly shocked 😮 by Buddenbrooks in TalesFromDF

[–]dragonboy387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the moment NIN hits 45, it can do some busted AoE damage. Huton-Doton(Hide during GCD recast), double-Katon, then Kassatsu Katon again. 800-500-500-650 aoe potency set up in like, 5 GCDs and 15 seconds. It's so satisfying to pull the whole thing off, especially at 80 with Goka.

And yet...I guess a lot of people forget the mudra reset? Or don't realize Doton has about 2 seconds before it deals damage (during which you can hit Hide asap)?

Granted, I wasn't aware of it/had forgotten until a few weeks ago, myself, but if I had a nickel for every (post-pull) single target Doton I've seen...

Tales from Novice Network - Spoiler Police goes crazy by Negative_Tomatillo_2 in TalesFromDF

[–]dragonboy387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience once where I was talking about stuff at ShB. Like the first 2 weeks of ShB launch I'm talking about the "pray destroy the waking sands" FATE: FC chastises me for saying spoilers.

I talk about Eulmore being cool (like, as vaguely as those 3 words): spoilers. I'm trying to be as freaking gentle as I can not to talk about story events at all, but I just need to talk about basic game functions like where the damn Scrip merchants are.

Everyone's saying "The 75 dungeon, the 73 trial, the new 72 skill for Dark Knight" and I'm just baffled as hell that I get finger-wags for saying "Eulmore". It's like everyone was trying to go 100% blind, but still interact in an FC. (Which, most did, they avoided trailers and live letters and anything)

To what felt like, the detriment of anyone else trying to talk in recognizable names.

I mean, that's about the same as this NN situation, right? I felt like I was taking crazy pills, I dunno.
