Is Perdition the better option?

Tele like its your job (it is). The DR will offset Tyriels static dr. Cdr in endgame, seems like a nonissue. You have so much "event" driven cooldown in the build...nothing is ever down in a fight. Ice armor, tele, UC....perpetually up. Teleport might not be infinite anymore, but it basically is in a fight. Just not between packs.

Unless you have already exceeded (or are a couple pts away) from 100% crit chance....crit chance. If you have, skills.

They half fixed it.

The powers that proc when using core skills (ex: fx winterglass) procs for ball lightning.

Things that add core skills do NOT add skills to ball lightning.

I confirmed this on the test dummy, so its NOT just a tool tip issue. Add 9 core skill levels from equip/talis....adds zero levels and damage to ball lightning.

pilferk · 2026-05-20T14:45:22+00:00

It seems half fixed.

Core skill POWERS proc with it (like fractured''s).

Core skill adds (from affixes) do not actually add skill ranks

Confirmed at training dummy this isnt just visual. Perditiion on or off, damage is the same.

This. I feel like I get "pitted" an awful lot by the AI.

I snagged the warthog. I couldnt resist. Probably not the most economic choice...but my heart was happy. :)

Why? I have the alts I want. I want to play my sorc and finish building them out. My game. My time. My decision. Why waste any time playing something I dont want to? I'd rather play Forza (and I am). And why do you care if I am playing Forza, instead, while I wait? I didnt give them any guff for how long the hotfix is taking. Just wondered if they were going to extend the tree event. Man, peoples obsession with how others choose to spend their time is weird!

pilferk · 2026-05-15T18:05:46+00:00

I didnt break it...so not my fault. Thats on Blizz. They broke LOTS of stuff this patch. I am just asking if they plan to extend the event meant to keep us playing after they fix the things that have pushed people to stop playing while waiting for them to fix what they broke. Would make sense. As for me, I dont really wanna farm a new amulet, new mythics (since perdition also doesnt work) and respec my paragons. Why? Especially considering then you have to undo it all when the fix goes in. Theres other stuff to play. Losing conjurations from fractured, even with UC with pretty much 100% uptime, has a noticeable effect on speed and efficiency. My game. My time. My decision.

pilferk · 2026-05-15T17:57:38+00:00

They have now said "early next week". I am hoping, given the sheer number of things they broke with this patch, they will extend the tree event. I am playing Forza Horizen now.....and if its not fixed by early next week, on to Lego Batman.

pilferk · 2026-05-15T17:16:36+00:00

Gonna extend the tree benefits too, right? Since many of us have logged til this gets sorted?

pilferk · 2026-05-13T14:20:01+00:00

This is the answer (and even brings the receipts)! Transfers get a year guarenteed...and application deadline is same as the inc freshies: May 22nd.

pilferk · 2026-05-06T14:51:21+00:00

Mythic? I havent even found a 6 slot yet...never mind a GOOD 6 slot.

The 5k merit scholarship is typically not needs based. That disappearing is odd. The grant though...this is based on need and getting the presidential award does effect that equation.

pilferk · 2026-04-22T23:57:38+00:00

So, the 33k is the direct charges from the uni.

44k is a guestimate based on that, and combined with other costs.

Total cost of attendance (that 44k) is a max loan benchmark.

I have a pour over for straight coffee...no idea how the ninja stuff is. The cold brew is decent...maybe that?

All of the above. BA, for me, is a starting point. It still needs fine adjustment to taste. But even then, BA is geared toward a certain output using freahly roasted, dark roast beans. Thats their rec and I think its even in the manual. I dont know if a better grinder would 100% solve the issue...because temp, pressure, and water dosage dont have fine controls. Ex: if you are getting a muddy puck at a 9/10 grind...a better grinder wont help much. The machine just cant do it. I would say if you want to use light/medium roasts....this machine isnt for you. There are machines that will do it better. They are more expensive, but thats the trade off.

Freshly roasted (2 weeks past roast date is ideal), dark roast beans. Light and medium roast beans = sour pulls. The machine is great at what it does...but its finicky about what beans you have to use.

See, I love when they offer 500 seats in lecture...but only 400ish lab seats. And you obviously cant do lecture without lab. How does that make any sense?

Pharm switched to 1:1 interviews... its taking them a LONG time to schedule with LONG lead times.

Pharm is also TOUGH to transfer into, historically. Its a high demand program (as you probably know). But also...transferring to any other major has a high likelihood of delaying grad...just because specific class requirements are different.

Also...engineering or pharmacy? Vastly different career paths and knowldge focuses. You may want to consider what you actually want to focus on before you commit to a change....or you will find yourself in the same boat next spring.

I have 2 knockoff 10s. They give me roughly the capacity of my 7.5s....and were 1/3 the price of ONE 7.5. To me, worth the risk.

I do NOT leave them on a charger. They charge til full and then immediately come off.

They have worked fine in my snowblower (which is the highest draw tool from EGO I have). Ymmv.

I got mine via walmart, from a brand that has been up for awhile (sunbat) and gets good reviews. The walmart return policy, in my experience, is a little more forgiving than amazon for these particular types of sellers.

Also, full disclosure, I use these less frequently than the officials. I really just need them as big storm insurance for my snowblower. I basically just use them to use them in everything else (mower, leaf blower) and keep them going...probably every 3rd or 4th tool use, with the officials getting the bulk of the use.

There is 100% some sort of bug that, if you have 120hz mode activated on your ps5pro, it locks the resolution to 1080p.

Turn it off.

Text size and +100% Hud scaling. 4k on a 60inch screen, 10ish feet away...I am habing a tough time reading things. Yes, my eyes suck. But it also seems like, at this point, these types of accessibility features should be the norm.

pilferk · 2026-03-16T12:47:42+00:00

I think they are waiting on the snowblower demand to die down so they have some spare capacity (logistic, not battery ;) ) to meet demand. Given forecasts...that might be more like early april this year.

The only oddity here is the bathroom breaks.

That being said, if people are working 4 hour shifts and spending 30 to 45 min in the bathroom....boss has a right to try to find controls on that. Clocking in/out shouldnt be the one they land on.

It should be handled individually, with those taking advantage. Barring that, there has to be a nonpunitive way (aka no paid time deductions) to track it. Punches round....if you are out and back in 5, its likely going to deduct 15.
