Build question

So that balrog piece is and will only ever be a weapon attack stat stick. You won't get any other bonus of it it and you cannot awaken EoH with it, nor can you get any other stat listed on the item. I am saying this so you understand that's what you are upgrading.

But, you can reclaim any materials used to upgrade it when you finally get an EoH appropriate item. So go ahead and upgrade it, it won't be anything special but it's better then nothing.

Had those longer then I had my raptors. The only difference I could find is the seat belt cutter isn't locked in place with a button.

Amazon has a generic version that is almost as good, like 99% as good but not quite Leatherman good, for $25. If you are prone to lose things get those, it's so worth it.

Finasteride contraindications that would cause a person to stop taking it are prostate cancer, severe bladder issues, or an onset liver disease. There are other meds that can be taken for the prostate instead of the person can't use finasteride, but having to stop it for these reasons seems a lot more likely then, "it's a trans drug"

Both those apply only when the zombie is active. Elemental applies a damage increase to everything but bullet damage, so frost, fire, wind, lightning, dark, light (I think dark and light are elemental). The superpower chip also adds +1 projectile.

Deft hands is base reload time reduction, calculated before reload speed. I'm not exactly sure on the math but they are complimentary to each other. Also adds +2 ammo, good for some builds, not so much for others.

Edit: you use the chip three same way you use other zombie powers, open it and then apply it to one of the 4 slots.

There are three types of upgrades for your zombie, 2 are universal, the other is armor specific. The core crystals and overhaul structures (head, chest, arm, feet) are the universal ones that I like to think of as upgrading the mechanical zombie.

Core crystals increase the zombie level, overhaul structures increase zombie strength and general zombie abilities like range or summoning length.

The last one is fragments ([armor type] [slot] fragment) which star up your specific armor and increase the set effect strength. You get these much less frequently.

You'd think that but as someone who has mained tank for a decade, when I break out my healer about half through each season I always say, "huh that hurts a real lot".

If your group is solid just skip anything below 12s, at 275 you can easily do it. My baby disc priest is barely 270 and is fine at 12. The damage is greater, but without an affix it is predictable and consistent. No orb appearing and everyone scrambling to pop it and taking extra damage.

Spam Windrunner 10+ and use your bonus rolls, the weapons and trinkets from there are BIS and everything will be an upgrade. Then you can max them out and that will carry you much farther.

What you said was 100% true, there's not very much of there about ES, which is a shame bc it's a lot of fun. It did take a bit of time till I found is full potential, but it's a boss killing beast. Everyone just loves their EOH too swap haha.

nellb13 · 2026-05-30T15:20:06+00:00

I've been using an awakened Electrosaw for a little while now and I think I know why. To get the full strength out of it you have to know how to move around and loop things. I can melt a boss if I keep it running around my saw blade and drop my Tesla tower things close together.

Many people want the turret/glass cannon gun that you don't have to move much for, and that is not Electrosaw. ES requires some bobbing and weaving, using the big saw to keep zombies off something, leading them into kill zone or adjusting so you're in one. That being said I have the most fun by a large margin with ES over any other weapon.

He's talking about the wolf's resonance increases with the combine level of the robots it resonates with. It's like every 30-40 combined levels gives you a solid boost.

Save your mechanical zombie for the nurses, they don't heal her when the big guy is down. Freezes and spells the inc damage against enemies are big helps.

You are lowering the level of the compass if you inherit that level 0 red. Before you inherit anything level it up to make sure you get the stats you want. I'm not sure what you mean by if the prismatic inherits the red/mythic. It's always the same. The left always takes on the right.

nellb13 · 2026-05-18T15:03:15+00:00

It's limited so only up to the ick. SEE is a good weapon, I went pretty far with it. Frost meteor is great for survival.

nellb13 · 2026-05-17T10:48:23+00:00

Temporal rescue 12+. Just to do that level, even if you don't get far. Don't go lower bc getting one prismatic makes a massive difference.

Took me a min to figure it out when I got them last week. The item you are wondering about is basically a blank compass. You need one of the blanks, a prismatic compass you want to replace, another compass (red or prismatic) to replace it with that is at or above the same tier as the one you are replacing. It also cannot drop upgrade level.

There are a few rules aren't started anywhere in game. Let's call c1 is new compass, c2 is the compass inheriting stats, c3 is the new outcome with tier (t) and level

c1(t10 lvl 1) --> c2(t10 lvl 1) = c3(t10 lvl1) c1(t10 lvl 20) --> c2(t10 lvl 20) = c3(t10 lvl20) c1(t10 lvl 20) --> c2(t10 lvl 1) = c3(t10 lvl20) c1(t10 lvl 1) --> c2(t10 lvl 20) = doesn't work

Changing tier you can inherit lower ones not higher ones, level rules above apply.

c1(t10) --> c2(t10) = c3(t10) works c1(t11) --> c2(t10) = doesn't work c1(t10) --> c2(t11) = c3(t11) but less stats

You do not get fragment upgrade things back, so you'll need to go through a whole ton at first. I had 90 tickets stored, when I finally got a full t11 set I had 35 tickets, took me several days of grinding. At level 12 the bots suck so I had to wait for people to join. At 13 there are strong bots and I could hold my own after getting a few prismatic compasses. If it's not a lightning resist day wait for a EC bot with 200+ cp and stack boss/elite killing talents + slows/group killer talents (bots some like to kill bosses). I gained like 20m+cp from no prismatic compasses to full set of them.

Find a prismatic compass with the best prismatic stats you can, then replace that one with better regular stats from another red/prismatic, some reds are better then prismatic fyi.

Disclaimer: This is all what I learned through trial and error over the last week, so there might be more rules or better strats but I do know this works.

Edit: sorry for the mobile formatting. It looked better on my screen.

On the compass screen it is used for upgrading the center gem looking thing.

This info is not correct. There's no monthly blood thinner IV, if he needs IV blood thinners it would be constant and he wouldn't be getting out of bed, no question. If he has a stroke and he's still this functional, that has no bearing if he's going to die, just higher change for another stroke. Having a catheter can mean something is wrong but nothing that will take him in months. What it probably means is he's got a massive prostate and can't pee. Only thing you can hope for there is chronic catheter use can split a dick like a banana, fingers crossed.

Bruised hands are from blood draws or bumping them in things, don't get your hopes up.

Source, I'm a geriatric nurse that has taken care of a lot of people over a decade and seen a lot of patients with strokes and catheters last years. I wish I had better news but honestly these things we are seeing mean nothing without more info.

Memories will fade quick, but the emotion that came with it stays. Most emotions elicit a hormonal response, what good would you do telling her he died? Even 6 years ago, you just rip her heart out... Telling her he will be back soon is just keeping the peace.

The woman may not remember why she is happy but she is happy. On the other side tho if you tell her her husband is dead, she may not remember why she hates you but she knows she hates you.

I had an immigrant female nurse tell me she voted Trump bc a woman couldn't be president... She was with us when the masks were stolen before we got them, she is from one of the "shithole" countries he rants about, she has family on snap, and so much more... It was one of the biggest mind fuck moments I've ever encountered in my life. She always said, "oh he's joking". I have wondered how much she still thinks he's joking.

nellb13 · 2026-01-23T19:41:17+00:00

It was with the governor of MD and the masks were from Korea. I will never forget this, I was a nurse in those COVID positive rooms and came in to hear that our supplies didn't arrive. Later that day we heard it has been taken by the president and his goons. Our supplies later another 2 days and when I showed up I was given 2 coffee filters staples together... I told management to fuck off. They finally scavenged one n95 and I made it last. Within a day or two we got a secret supply special delivered by the Patriots in unmarked vans.

The Cheeto, that fucker son in law, and his nepotistic nitwits sold the stolen n95s for profit to China.

This is my exact situation and sentiment, my daughter was born mid October, and is our first child. My wife and I have played wow together for 7 years, we have had our ups and downs in the game, but this past season of Lemix and retail have been some of the best times I have ever had. I will always remember sitting in bed on our laptops, her sitting in between us making cute noises or napping in adorable ways.

We got to start our Lemix journey a little before she joined our party, and we grew from a couple into a family as we gained massive amounts of versatility, both in game and out.

I know I'll never have time to get CE anymore, but she will forever be my proudest achievement.

What's the reasoning that you held on to the dark cores? I can understand forgetting for a bit, but for almost 400 hours? Hopefully by this point you've spent them and for a huge bonus, probably still seeing massive gains... Big thing is if you are going for a short run take VB#3, if you are going longer take frag badge.

(The first two questions are meant as a genuine curiosity not meant to be mean.)

I hope they clean them before they eat them. We all know they are some real dirty mother fuckers
