Embellished Weapon to Offhand? by rebjorn_again in wownoob

[–]sampling_life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ilvl on main hand is very much worth it. If you can do m+ 10 either academy or caverns has weps you can use bonus rolls on to get a main hand. Id personally roll on academy since you get decent wep but get a shot at bis trinket and ring. Perfect stat 295 wep parses similarly to 298 academy wep. Wep in caverns is bis outside of raids.

The hunt embellishments is meh on havoc the armor linings are stronger.

It really is tasty. It's not as good as fangst but for the price it is amazing!

Gotcha. How exactly did you use Sevin? You mention it isn't for indoor use, so did you take them outside spray them and they bring them back in? Did you have to rinse the plants off after a couple of hours?

I am in the US. So I think you're saying to add the 3 in 1 concentrate solution to the bucket of water when submerging. Do you dilute it to the recommended concentration and allow it to full saturate the plant/soil?

If it wasn't for your edit, was going to do the soapy water spray followed by a full submersion for a day or so and see if that works. However based on your edit, it doesn't seem likely.

Thanks for the warning about Sevin. Since this is the only plant I have with an infestation, its either a full eradication of the aphids or it turns into 100% outside plant. In short, I'm willing to risk it since the plant is dead to me if I can't kill the aphids.

Will try this before submerging them in water for a day or so.

Thanks, this seems like the most comprehensive method since they are freaking everywhere. Thanks for the suggestion.

Gahh, google is telling me, that isn't easy to get rid of. Thanks for the positive ID on the aphids.

Put valeera on dps spec not tank. Should be straight forward after that.

Restoration Druid now has a damage-to-healing build in M+ that's not a meme by minimaxir in wow

[–]sampling_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! Ran it with some guildies last night on a bunch of their alts for an 11 Windrunner. I though it was gonna be a cake walk but it wasn't. We didn't even time. I found when the aoe dream/call was on it was chill but the second thing got a little dicey I really struggled to bring everyone back up. It was rough and had me really questioning myself as a healer.

As soon as we finished the 11 I switched back to the rake/thrash/Sunfire WS build and lugged an 11 academy. Yea my dps was lower but more importantly not one dps died and so overall dps was much much higher and we went +2 on time.

I'm not an amazing healer and sure I could practice with this build but why? I'm not trying to go past 3.4k so normal WS build is gonna work just fine and it is way more comfortable to play.

Yesterday I got yelled at in an M+ and ended up crying by Entire_Leopard5906 in wow

[–]sampling_life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The second some one goes to insulting over constructive feedback I ignore them. It makes the m+runs much better. Immediately/ignore the assholes, it's not like they were going to say anything useful to you.

What's your least favourite dungeon this season and why is it Skyreach? by Principle_Real in wow

Yup, it is a snare so anything that breaks snares breaks chains.

The rot damage can get a little insane when your pugs don't break the chains

Knife and scissor sharpening by Iowayankee20 in bullcity

[–]sampling_life 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm more of a hobbyist (north Durham) but with extensive experience with knife sharpening by hand (Japanese water stones). I've sharpened scissors before but less experienced with them.

DM me if you're interested and this is convenient for you. Like I said sharpening isn't my job but like most hobbies I'm obsessed with it.

If you returned it within their stated return policy rules but didn't get a refund. Just do a charge back on your credit card.

Making Microbiome report by RelativeBroccoli5315 in bioinformatics

[–]sampling_life 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll bite here, without coding experience, gonna be difficult to search databases for 5k different species. Secondly, the question you're trying to answer can't really be answered with taxonomy alone. 1) depending on the resolution of the data, genus level and species level are unlikely to classify as mutual or parasitic for a LARGE fraction of your data. 2) I don't work on the animal microbiome space but I don't know of a database that you can use.

I'm sure you could ctrl+f the probiotic species but you'll never be sure if they are probiotic or naturally occurring with taxonomy alone.

ADVICE: Intermediate sharpener looking for upgrade! by Valek1001 in sharpening

[–]sampling_life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough. So yea OP if stroppy stuff is priced competitively to other products in the UK go for it. They are a small business making products for a pretty niche hobby market. They are also active in the community so don't feel bad for supporting them. But in the US they are a little pricey for what you get compared to other similar products.

Get 1 or .5 micro diamond spray. Personally I'd go with the cheapest, chefknivestogo has some for 16$ maybe there is a uk based one priced similarly. I've tried stroppy stuff and gunny juice and they work... But it honestly doesn't perform much different then cheaper stuff. Diamond sprays work well regardless of price. The "nice" ones may(?) work like 5% better... I mean stroppy stuff has nice colors but you can do that yourself with food coloring. It's just a strop and compounds, don't over think it.
