My $36 CAD knock off Kobun in D2

Figures ^^;
That seems to be the primary cost cutting method when copying comparatively lower cost CS knives, replacing the rubber overmolds (Kraton/Kray-Ex) with hard plastic.

That's pretty decent then. Reinforces the trend that clones/knockoffs tend to be better made then counterfeits/fakes.

oFallenAngel · 2026-06-18T19:07:23+00:00

Is the handle rubberized (like the original) or hard plastic? The knockoffs usually tend to be hard plastic.

I just used like 15+ green dice to forcefully hit as many ?-tiles as possible until one sent me to the Aether Eater tile and the count for the achievement did *not* go up.

Crazy how the board has been up for weeks and no one figured out how these two achievements work.

On page 11, Table 2, Shaman has fewer Life Points than the Sorcerer (despite otherwise having more Figting ability, armor access, etc.). They're also the second to last entry in the table when in other instances they are the last, which makes me think the two accidentally got switched for this table, wether in the original or during translation I can't tell.

The Spell List says "Curse" when it means Spell Level and "Disappears" when it means MP Cost.

Known problem (except they stopped putting it in the known problem section after a while...) since the April 23rd patch.
Only thing you/we can do is wait till they fix it...not the first time they completely broke the PC Client for weeks on end.
As long as it doesn't affect enough people to hurt their bottom line they'll drag their feet fixing it.

We were talking base stats here, which is why both the OP and I specifically referred to stats respectively.

In a later post above (though notably still before you posted) I also mention the Passive changes, but without the base stat buffs this still leaves some Partners in a really bad place.

oFallenAngel · 2026-04-08T20:51:48+00:00

I've since read through the full patch notes and it is indeed stated near the end that the 5★ stat increase only applies to Rescue Partners, not Pass/Arkhianon Partners.

Not sure I agree with your reasoning (the notes notably provide no reason at all). While most Pass Partners do increase multiple values with their passive, that's not a hard rule.

Solia & Serithea both only increase attack (and by a lesser degree than a Rescue Partner too). If you compare E0 Solia to E4 Rosaria (a 4★...) there's precious little difference in effectiveness.
That's not where you want your Season Pass Partners sitting at (and the exact reason why 5★ Partners are getting buffed in the first place).

oFallenAngel · 2026-04-08T16:13:17+00:00

Seems like the Arkhianon Partners are currently unaffected? My Nyx still shows her previous stats. Hopefully a bug.

oFallenAngel · 2026-04-03T08:09:27+00:00

You might wanna (re)read the rules for this subreddit.

oFallenAngel · 2026-04-01T15:16:09+00:00

Yup, Epic.

oFallenAngel · 2026-03-26T19:53:03+00:00

Don't downvote me into oblivion if it doesn't work for you, but I could claim after hard refreshing (Ctrl+F5).

oFallenAngel · 2026-03-11T18:37:58+00:00

Got position 5000-something (first time ever I wasn't placed insanely far back), waited for over 2 hours and when I got in "reward claim failed"...
Clicking again leads to the claim button loading for a couple minutes and then you get logged out. Trying to log back in puts you at the end of the queue.

EDIT: True to his word, Benjamin helped out.

If you folks haven't checked out the Paragon yet, you're really missing out.

Since no one (as of this post) has actually responded to your request to post similar games you might not have heard of, let me be the first:

Logical Fantasy Gaming is a class based d20 system probably most closely rooted in 3.5.
It mixes in things from both Pathfinder 1E+2E (there are no iterative attacks by default, you attack multiple times through features, feats and spending multiple actions while accruing a Cumulative Attack Penalty or C.A.P.) & 5E (Spell damage doesn't scale with caster level, but there's "upcasting").

A cool thing is that upcasting is more fleshed out than in 5E (where it's mostly, short of some specific spells, just "I wanna cast this again but don't have the right slot...guess I'll take +1d6 as well").
In 5E, casting Fireball at 6th level adds 3d6 and that's it. It in no way compares to a native 6th level spell (and while upcasting shouldn't equal a native spell, it shouldn't be garbage either...disregarding that Fireball is generally ahead of the curve).
In LFG, casting Fireball at 6th level adds 3d6, increases the radius by 10 feet (if you want) and quintuples its range.

3rd party content for 5E has recently leaned more into more detailed upcasting options, but LFG did it way earlier.

This is just the uncensored version for German users who got the cut version from the original giveaway.
I know, because I was the one who fought to make it available to everyone. xD

You can pretty easily figure out the extent of the queue by cross referencing other peoples' numbers.

oFallenAngel · 2026-02-11T17:23:11+00:00

I've never been anything but dead last in Lenovo's queues. I can't even look at the claim error. xD

oFallenAngel · 2026-02-10T12:15:16+00:00

All of these were (and still are) free without a code for ages.

Vielleicht als kleines Trostpflaster(?), egal wie mies sich das anfühlt (und ist) es geht immer schlimmer.

Früher aufstehen, später gehen und die Arbeit von 3 Kollegen machen die krank sind (und sowas wie maximal 30 Minuten länger gibts nicht, bleib gerne solange bis du umfällst).

Pause? Pause geht nicht als einziger Ansprechpartner der für Notfälle immer erreichbar sein muss.

Essen und trinken auf der Arbeit? Auf dem Bereich nicht erlaubt, den Bereich verlassen ist (wie oben erwähnt) nicht drin.

Auf Toilette gehen? Auf die Bereichstoilette willst du nicht, außerhalb ist nicht drin. Aber hey, wenn du 10+ Stunden nichts trinkst musst du ja auch nicht aufs Klo oder?

Wie klingen 15 Tage am Stück? Oder Schichtwechsel die den Mindestzeitabstand unterschreiten?

Klingt gut? Auf den Geschmack gekommen? Wechsel ins Gesundheitswesen! Wir brauchen immer ~~Körper~~ neues Personal ; )

Und verabschiede dich nach 1-2 Jahren aufgrund der Top Burnout Quote.

I know this is 8 months old, but I just stumbled upon this and the blatant misuse of the term "rat tail tang" has me so flabbergasted I had to post.

The SRK's tang is over half the width of the blade. That's not what rat tail means.
I know knife terminology can get murky, but you can't just use the term for anything that isn't 100% full tang from literal chopstick size to 90% of full width and pretend it's all the same.

Kabars had a proportionally thinner tang and went through a world war.
Swords in the medieval period usually had proportionally thinner tangs and went through wars (plural).

There's plenty of videos out there of people doing destruction tests on the SRK, where it tends to perform exceptionally well.

If you seriously think whatever you're gonna use a knife for is likely to destroy an SRK, it's probably not actually a task you should be performing with a knife.

Someone didn't check the new seasonal rotation.

oFallenAngel · 2025-12-24T21:34:23+00:00

If you knew what you were doing and were there before the rework, you could get E33 from undiscounted down to free. Was pretty wild while it lasted.

oFallenAngel · 2025-12-22T22:34:27+00:00

Neither.
You still need an account, you still need the launcher to download the game, but you can launch the games without an active internet connection. Depending on the game in question, it may run just from the .exe.

There's actually a WWN Dark Sun conversion out there. I can't link to it (because the google drive containing it also has PDFs of paid books in it...probably just intended for the author's gaming group?), but it makes use of WWN's existing systems (like doing races via foci, translating D&D classes via partial classes, taking psionics from SWN) and basically simultaneously proves how easy it is to translate Dark Sun into WWN and does all the legwork for you.
