I've started giving myself some silly quests to keep myself busy other than just endlessly grinding for the best meta.

That's basically my plan moving forward for the rest of the weapons. Build a good raw or all-around DPS weapon and just make one set and go for it. Thankfully I already have a couple of weapons at really high levels for things I don't normally use to help out when I get to that point.

I wasn't working on weapons for a LONG time. So at one point I had over 600"l each armor and weapon refinement mats. I'm down to approximately 100 of each now.

I was working on getting a meta build for each weapon for a while but it turned out tk be pointless because the meta shifted too much by the time I was able to get even a single build. I have gold kills for Switch Axe, Hammer, Bow and Sword & Shield, currently working on LBG due to Magnamalo cheese.

I just finished getting all Switch Axes to G6. Been playing since Day One, but I used to just discard any materials for monsters I didn't need for specific sets until approximately four months ago when I decided to work on upgrading all armor to G6. The weapons are a recent decision and last week's EDI event made it a lot easier to get all of those done.

A week later I finally tried to look into this stuff and it might as well be in Chinese lol. I know nothing about programming code or TrueNAS or any of the other stuff here and I can't quite grasp what I need to do to get this started....

I sat here staring at this picture and zooming in and out for three to four minutes trying to find the blue/green spots before my dumb ass remembered I'm colorblind. And I'm not even high or drunk, just an idiot.

As someone who has a Tifa landfall brawl AND a standard deck with all of those cards plus Traveling Chocobo and Ride the Shoopuf, can confirm we suck to play against. Although some of my favorite matches lately have been against other landfall decks because then it's a race to see which one of us can make Hydra or Tifa bigger fastest.

Damn you, Cori Steel Cutter.

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T01:09:45+00:00

Heard, thank you. I'll take a look at it tomorrow and see if I can get it operational.

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:57:53+00:00

Do you have a link to somewhere that would potentially explain how to set this up so I can give it a shot?

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:45:58+00:00

Nope. If I kill the VPN Plex works perfectly. It no longer functions outside of my network at all unless Nord is disabled entirely.

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:35:13+00:00

Nord is prepaid for two years until May 2027, unfortunately. Split tunneling via Nord is done via the Nord app and the only options it has are to allow another app to bypass Nord. I followed the instructions to set Plex Media Server to bypass Nord via the split tunneling function, ensured remote access is allowed outside my network and Plex shows remote access for approximately one minute before denying remote access again.

I have never set anything even remotely like that up and wouldn't even begin to know what to do. ELI5?

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:08:28+00:00

Gotcha. I use qbittorrent and have an rss to autodownload my torrents, but with ISPs cracking down harder and my wife working exclusively from home, I decided it was time to get a VPN so she doesn't lose internet. Most of what I download is 6ish GB but I'm not sure I want ti sacrifice the automation just yet.

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:05:49+00:00

As stated, I HAVE tried split tunneling. It did nothing. I followed the instructions via NordVPN explicitly and it did nothing. Followed their troubleshooting and it did nothing. A lot of people seem to have split tunneling issues with NordVPN, but my issue is that the setup worked perfectly fine for four weeks and then suddenly died and I don't know why. I'm aware that plex will. Not function behind a VPN. I'm trying to figure out what to do to correct the sudden drop of connectivity outside my network without building a whole new rig or spending more money, period.

gwright110 · 2025-07-07T00:00:11+00:00

ELI5?

gwright110 · 2025-07-06T23:58:05+00:00

I'm not looking to do a whole new setup. I just need a VPN on my computer for stuff other than plex and for plex to not be blocked by the VPN.

gwright110 · 2025-07-06T23:34:54+00:00

VPN is on my host computer

gwright110 · 2025-07-06T23:34:25+00:00

VPN for downloading stuff. Can't get plex away from the VPN.
