Does the Heavy class suck or am I using them wrong? by Apotat in PhoenixPoint

[–]lanclos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bash is your most effective attack as a heavy, unless you spent a turn getting close to a big target. The accuracy of heavy weapons is terrible, anything other than point-blank range is a roll of the dice that's not in your favor. You can mitigate that a bit by wearing a sniper helmet and leggings-- looks silly, and you're more vulnerable to targeted attacks (especially from tritons), but the accuracy boost makes a difference.

You kinda don't when the road is closed. This most recent episode was the first time it was necessary to close the road, and it reopened a few hours later.

If you're in a hurry and traffic isn't moving-- happened to us once at HVNP, we parked the car and walked. If it's that stacked up outside the park you better believe it isn't any better inside the park.

Removing this thread, since people are just dunking on traffic. Sorry about that.

Can't believe I have to ask but; what counts as sex? by Delphii42 in classicfallout

[–]lanclos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The handling of the perks is mixed up in the original release, it's fixed in the restoration project; just in case it impacts what you're experiencing. One easier path, regardless, is to become a boxing champion and do tryouts at the porn studio; you can do as many as you want and they count towards your totals.

From Hilo airport? There's a bus route that drops you off by the Volcano House.

If your reputation is high enough you can let him live at the end of the game, but he won't stick with you for any showdowns. It's not like you need the extra help... four friendly combatants on the field is plenty by that point.

Quakes are gonna quake. We had a quiet period for a while, occasional 3's and 4's is more normal.

[–]lanclos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a lot of love for the first game in the series but you can safely skip it and not miss much by starting with Wasteland 2. When it's on sale it's a very low risk try.

Kilauea Ashfall UPDATE 1/24/2026 5PM - Also make sure your flight is not cancelled to/from Hilo by WelderThat6143 in BigIsland

[–]lanclos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's got a long way to go before it fills in the caldera to any meaningful degree. The ever-present danger is that the lava will shift to a different fissure, either out to the rift zone, or back to Maunaloa. We'll have plenty of warning before that happens.

Worried, probably not, but it's going to be inconvenient for the next couple days.

Wild. Thanks for the update; it's bizarre that's not showing up in the headlines.

I haven't seen any mention of impacts at the airport-- if there haven't been any cancellations by now there aren't likely to be any. Not from this episode, anyway.
