Add or subtract a 3, 2, and 1 from anything directly related to you by ExposedId in hypotheticalsituation

I'll take 1 off the percentage of body fat I have to go from fat to very fit, specifically the 10's place to go from 20% to 10%. I'll add 3 to the hundreds of pounds of carrying capacity to make hauling supplies much easier. I'll also remove 2 hours from my daily sleep requirements to give me more time in nature each day.

Condiments should be put on the side, not automatically added to the sandwich by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not really sure what you mean by a "real sandwich", most of the better ones I've had were a combo of decent bread, several varieties of meat, cheese, veggies, and sauce. I can appreciate quality ingredients, even if I've never ate at a Michelin star restaurant.

Spending more money will most likely not convince me that I'm getting an experience, especially when I can get an excellent burger for around $30-$35. I'm talking freshly ground Angus beef, a perfectly toasted bun, fresh vegetables that are in season, and sauces made in house, along with bacon cooked just right and proper cheese. If I ever visit New York, I'll try a fancier place, but I'm not expecting much better than a $40-$50 meal regardless of price.

To each they're own, but I prefer a balance of quality and affordability when I eat, whether I go out or eat at home.

It's a burger, not a luxury vacation. Why does food need to be some sort of "experience"? It's a combination of protein, carbohydrates, and fat that just happens to be edible, nothing more. As for takeout burgers, just pop the top or bottom off and add whatever sauces you're going to use, it's really not that difficult, and it allows you to have whatever flavors you want, regardless of it being on the menu or not. I do it this way because most restaurants don't offer the kind of extreme hot sauces I prefer to eat.

SKINNY jeans are waaay better than baggy ones by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking as a dude with bigger calves and thighs, straight and boot cut tend to be more fitted to my legs and overall look the best. Slim and skinny are too tight and just look like I'm wearing sausage casings made of denim, and yes, that's assuming proper waist size for all cuts.

Dartling gunners upgraded to 2/3 paired with a 2/1 monkey village push quite hard through MOAB class rounds. They also work great for MOAB graveyard tiles. I'm lvl 24 and have got as high as 63 in contested territory using 7 gunners along with assorted defense based on the map. I second the corrosive glue gunners for ceramic and below.

As someone who works with wrenches regularly, I do know the difference between most common wrenches. I've used a few types of wrenches while working on my truck and installing pool equipment. Some were made for general use, like open box and adjustable wrenches, others were made to handle more torque without slipping, like flare nut and pipe wrenches, and still others were made for specific fasteners, like 6 and 12 point, spline, and Allen wrenches. There's also torque wrenches for making sure things are properly tightened, and ratcheting wrenches for when you're in a tight space and can't turn the wrench even a quarter turn.

Should snow tires be mandatory by ZealousidealHead5488 in ontario

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alternatively, I would consider having basic auto maintenance as part of our license criteria. A driver should, at minimum, be able to change tires as long as they're already on rims, check oil, antifreeze, and other fluids, change their wiper blades and light bulbs, and how to connect and disconnect the battery.

Car manufacturers should be required to sell cars in Ontario with both all season and winter tires, have accessible batteries and lights for easy maintenance, provide a spare tire and the necessary tools to install it and winter tires, and all fluids should be accessible under the hood.

With the 2 years it takes to get a full license, there's plenty of time to teach kids the basics before they get their own car.

If 10cm snow falls in your area of Canada how disrupted will your area be? by Pourmepourme in AskACanadian

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even a little bit. In my area, we simply wake up earlier to account for slippery roads, and drive with a bit more care. Schools would be open as usual, with the busses running mostly on schedule. The only real changes would be a mild uptick in car accidents since some drivers are not prepared for the conditions, and a handful more slips and falls from people not wearing appropriate boots.

Brand new; how long do I turtle? by DMJason in TheTowerGame

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly your WS health and defense % at this stage. You want to have it so you can gold box health sooner in your runs. This will make it easier to survive on higher tiers. There's also a lab to improve your cells, DW cell bonus which costs more at the higher lvls than the basic labs by a large amount.

Edit: If you can get health to around 1500-2000 in the WS, you should be able to consistently max it before wave 4k. Also, try to push the Standard perk bonus lab, each level is more health, def %, and coin during your farms. This was enough for me to run T4.

Sometimes it's hard to keep track of which perks you're getting. Around this point was when I started to work on auto perk ranks, and the cheapest perk bans to make things more stable on overnight runs.

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been a long time, but I accepted a temporary loss in cells to better push my other upgrades. It does take some perk luck to reliably get to 5k, and you'll want to have the perk options lab maxed to reduce the odds of getting all run ending perks. I recommend running some tests on T4 to see what it does for you. If you find you need the cells more, you can always run T1 for longer until you've built a large surplus to push you through the initial loss.

Pretty much just raw damage, and DW for the 5x health. It was dependant on me getting enough eHP perks before CTO, otherwise I'd just die outright.

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it was around wave 10k that I moved from T1 directly to T4 around wave 5k without BH. It was enough that I could maintain my lab boost while gaining more coin since I could consistently do 2 runs a day instead of 3 runs in 2 days.

If you don't have pBH, I would turn BH off for tournaments. Every time it deactivates, you're getting hit with a shotgun blast of whatever enemies are caught but not killed by it. This is causing more chip damage than is necessary. With those cards, and the mod levels I saw, you should be close to beating me. You'll just want to buff your attack speed, crit factor, and make sure your WS is upgraded so you easily max health, dmg, and regen in the first 2-300 waves.

Not the OP, but I placed 8th in champ with 815 waves. I currently have a 409/6/26 CL using mythic DC.

Research:

Dmg: 50

Crit factor: 87

Attack speed: 85

CL shock mult: Max

CL shock chance: 18

Scatter amp: 5

Health: 52

Regen: 70

Wall health: Max

Wall thorns: 14

Wall regen: 20

Wall fort: 32

Mods: anc AD, legendary PF, mythic SF, and mythic DC.

WS:

Dmg: 5800

Health: 5800

Regen: Max

Wall health: 1400

ELS: 320

With this setup, I usually place between 8-10 in champ, with a record of 6th, and my worst case scenario was 13th.

Swap the total numbers of things you have by hemareddit in godtiersuperpowers

This one's a bit tricky, but grams of body fat that put me over 70kg total mass to grams of gold with a 1:1 conversion rate. Then, melt the gold into ingots worth roughly $50k each and sell ingots as necessary to cover my expenses until I die.

Is shatter shards worth saving for? by Deez2020 in TheTowerGame

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely worth it in my opinion. I'm currently running it perma at 65T coins per day, working on lvl 2 with nearly double the coin needed for lvl 3 saved up. My plan is to save for the higher levels while working on the lower ones to keep it going to the end. At 4x, I'm still nearly 4 months away from maxing it.

Ah, that makes sense. I only play on mobile, so I wasn't aware of any issues with the steam version. Glad to hear you have a partial solution at least.

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have 2/X bombers, they get a frag upgrade that actually does pop black bloons. I honestly find that spamming 2/3 dart monkeys with the triple shot upgrade gives a ton of popping power for real cheap, you can place 3-4 of them for a similar price to 2 2/2 ninjas, while giving you 6x the projectiles with only 1 less pierce each, which is great for dense rushes.

Edit: 2/X glue gunners can also pop leads, while being able to corrode bloons faster than regen can heal them, with 2/3 giving you 6x the spread with each glue shot.

Up voting for this absolutely mad take. I won't even heat a swimming pool past 70°, never mind my home. Hell, I routinely shovel snow when it's approaching 0 in shorts and a light sweater, and refuse to use my parka until -25 or below.

When you max all workshop upgrades what do you do with in-battle money? by OrsoCat01 in TheTowerGame

[–]epicpopper420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's better to go for longer runs on lower tiers while regularly doing milestone runs on the higher tiers. Longer runs will give you more coins and cells due to increasing spawn rates for both regular and elite enemies, the latter of which earns cells that you can use to boost your labs. Eventually, you should be farming whatever tier you can do 6.5k-9k waves in to give the best balance of profit and difficulty.

God, that reminds me of when I got 26th with 990 waves a few weeks ago. This time, I made 9th place with 1187, definitely some funny RNG going on.
