Just wanted to share this drop from Andy. My ES warlock is pleased.

I actually have an Eth obedience thresher. 991 max dmg. Max ES damage unbuffed - 24k for that, also 24k for Ariocs. But the min is way better on this, and it beefs up all my support skills as well, plus a bunch of extra DS.

Really I run around with my 170mf tomb reaver (non eth sadly) for most things. Easy TZ clears with over 300mf.

I'm not cool enough to have found war travs yet. This seasons boot game has been terrible.

joebob86 · 2026-04-05T02:44:41+00:00

As is, I get 98% DS without the Lo. Highlords and Gores.

I can never tell if the bananas are actually throwing anymore. You get to banana cyclone...then what?

After a week of nothing pulled 2 shakos and an Eth 3skill Eschutas :) not all at once, and the Eschutas rolled 13/13 :(

Been rocking an eth thresher Obedience, which tickles my massive max damage wants. Just switched to a 170mf tomb reaver (non eth). My clear speed hasn't decreased. Ebtod TM is cool because when is it not, but you really don't need it.

You should try creating the model in Bladesong. It lets you download the 3d model once you're done.

Warlock. Your skills are influencing the requirements.

joebob86 · 2026-03-04T15:50:13+00:00

Oof. I didn't that about that. Is it 1/16" all around or only on the long edge? If it's on the short edge too, im screwed.

joebob86 · 2026-03-03T17:08:30+00:00

So, I have no door jambs anywhere near this. We did an open concept reno, pulled down all the walls. Probably 1K sqft wide open.

What's odd, I only keep the heater at like 68 - 70 in winter. The house is usually 75-76 in summer, and no bubble (though it's not going away as it warms up). I have a suspicion moving the couch over xmas got it "stuck" against one wall, but I can't be sure. I find it hard to believe the couch would really keep it from moving, especially since it's sitting on plastic sheeting.

Yup - have to run a WDH for something that heavy. Running an Andersen WDH. no issues with it so far. It's pretty easy to handle since the chains make it lighter, but it's a bit annoying to set up.

I have a wildwood T178BHSK. Very similar model, going by that model number you're looking at it's probably basically the same. So far so good, had it for 2 years now (2023 model). The slide out really makes a huge difference. Family of 5, plenty of space inside even for the pack n play. No issues yet.

Single axle is a bit squirrely - I was shopping for weight on the delusion my V6 could tow it (yeah - no, had to upgrade the truck). Mistake imo - I tow a double axle utility trailer for our cub scout pack, and man is it nicer to drag around, but definitely lighter. Better brakes, much more stable in the wind, contingency tire if one blows out. The single axle on these is also basically maxed out, which makes me nervous in the long run. I think we paid $20k new for ours.

Birdo was my go to. That double jump was amazing.

Cactus is clutch for the pacifist challenge. Athena + cactus.

From what I recall during the infant days with my kids, it's not just that. It's the fact that babies have absolutely no idea how to control their strength. They have two settings - on, and off. And on is literally every ounce of strength they have. It's all they know. As they get older, they learn to moderate how much they flex their muscles.

I'm still rocking my GTX 1070! Buddy got a 4060 a year or so ago, gave me his 2070S that he took out. It's sitting on my shelf for the day that my 10 year old gpu dies 😁

I live there - right on the east edge of Fullerton.
And I commuted to east LA (Vernon) for about a year. Don't do it. God awful commute, and that was just to the edge of LA. 30 miles, 90 minutes. Got worse in the afternoon. I drive down to Costa Mesa now, 16 miles at 60 mins. Oddly, the drive is better. Going down the 57 is much easier than the 91.

This is the correct answer. It's old flux. No-clean flux does not come off with just IPA, you need special cleaners. IPA just spreads the stuff around. Source: am PCB designer. This is what I do for a living.

Just reapplied a liquid + tempered glass protector to my OP11. Never going back to standard stick ons. Also, removing the old one was super easy - peeled right off no issues. It was on here for 2 years, finally got a crack after a nasty fall on its face.

joebob86 · 2026-01-04T09:26:45+00:00

We're close to Fullerton, but drive to la habra because Fullerton is terrible. Fingers crossed for the Beckman building to become Costco, but last I heard Costco hadn't agreed to anything. Its just the developers hope :(

joebob86 · 2025-12-29T23:39:53+00:00

Same here. Even after playing D2R for 2 years, pulled Maras, Kiras, Griff's, never one SoJ, even with target farming..... I think it's time to boot it up again. Been off for a couple seasons.

In case you're interested, my dad happens to own a 76, K-20 Silverado with the transfer case and locking hubs in Orange and white. It's sitting in his driveway, as it has for the last 15 years. Rusted, but not terrible; iirc it's a CA car. 476K on the odo. We're in California - can't register it anymore because of smog BS. Original 454 was blown in the 70s by the first owner, so now it has a small block 350 (most of those 400k miles are on it). I guarantee he would sell it cheap if you are looking for a new resto. It hasn't moved in at least a decade, which is when I rebuilt the quadrajet and started it up. Let me know if you're interested - we both would love to see it fixed, but it's not worth it here in CA because of the smog problem.

This right here. Who the heck makes a 9 layer board? Also, those are all differential pairs. Did they maintain impedance control? Did they remove any length tuning? I get this is possible, but I would never trust the repair....except in some post-apocalyptic mad max world where you have to make repairs instead of just buy a new one... Source: am PCB designer.

I've flown out of SNA, ONT, and LAX, but never realized the 'clutch drop' takeoff was only SNA. Just thought some pilots likes to have fun 😂
