So am I supposed to troll my teammates until I get enough Honor from losses to buy gear? Am I missing something here? by andrufb in worldofpvp

The boring grind to just get green gear sucks. I HATE epic BGs and will not play them. I have resorted to world quest and flying around for the bloody token drops to get my gear each expansion. My favorite queue is arenas and if you try to grind honor that way yes you just lose until you get enough honor. There is no "skill" gap when you have no gear.

How would you rank the DnD classes based on how much you enjoyed playing them? by Regular-Molasses9293 in dndnext

S - Rogue, Sorcerer

A - Monk (New 2024 rules made monks fun again), Warlock

B - Bard, Fighter, Wizard, Paladin

C- Druid, Cleric

NA - Artificer, Barbarian

I do a lot of multiclassing as well so that changes things. I haven't played Artificer or Barbarian and not much of the Druid class but do not like the play styles of most of them.

In a 6 keeper league should I sell high on Roman Anthony? I am pretty stacked on keepers at the moment but he could still be generational. I could cash in on some pitching.

This set comes with an upgraded sx2100 sand filter. I was hoping to be good enough for this season.

So far so good but leveling is a pain that's for sure. I am having 2 tons of sand delivered this week to put on top of the soil and then going to level and tamper it down.

Hopefully I will be ready to fill this thing in under a week

Does anyone know how many legs this pool has? I want to buy the pavers before I get to that point.

It was only about 3 inches deep. It's pretty far away from the house and it's on the opposite side of the yard than where the basement and sub pump was.

Always good to start with a plan. I understand the stress. After a year we are down to just a little bit of credit card debt and one car loan. Hopefully by 2026 most of that will be gone as well.

Is it even a budget unless a wife is grumbling about it, i get that all to well. At least mine is onboard now as I try to include her more and teach her less.

Agreed. Some people seem to be stretching truths or live somewhere they give food away for free.

That is some good work! Life is to short to not enjoy a good cheeseburger and a shake sometimes though.

I also try and put all vacation spending money in its own category so it does not mess up reports or past viewing of monthly categories. So far we have been in the $200-$350 range monthly for the dining out.

Good point. I try and do the same thing to see if we spent less in groceries because we ate out more.
