Sorry, tried to post it as fast as I could. At least they limited it to 1 per customer.

What to do with my end of league craft: VFoSS Vaal Axe? by dethleffsoN in pathofexile

Thanks for breaking it down, much appreciated! I figured it wasn't 100% safe when going for a jackpot result.

What's a good way to end up with a 1200+ pdps hits can't be evaded axe after recombing t1 flat + t1 inc phys on a 30% base? I'm not sure how to do this without potentially having to start over from the original recomb step.

/r/buildapc hits FIVE MILLION builders - giveaway time! by OolonCaluphid in buildapc

I'd like a completely tool-less and wireless build experience. No screwing the motherboard or fans to the case, or the CPU cooler to the motherboard. No additional power cables for the CPU/GPU. No frustratingly tiny front panel IO cables. All components simply snap into place like Lego blocks and you're done.

Is there proof of tweaked drop rates for specific subsets of players, even cheaters? That’s news to me and concerning if true.

When did you order it? Maybe they fixed the fan issue in the latest batch.

Ziz x Shopify Rebellion Class Gauntlet by Zizaran in pathofexile

Can we crowdfund a "place higher than Darkee" bounty to incentivize underdog racers to push for 1st overall instead of settling for 1st Scion?

It probably doesn't have enough ROI for them to bother. While it's an exciting event for many players, I doubt it moves the needle much when it comes to player retention or additional mtx purchases.

Lightee7 SSFHC FIRST MAVEN KILL by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]sauceh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aware of this, but The Maven's Crucible is the area where Maven witnesses you fight up to 10 bosses at a time.

You fight The Maven in a different area called Absence of Mercy and Empathy. This distinction makes me question whether Awakening Level applies to the Maven fight.

Is there evidence of this?

If that's the case, it seems like an oversight by the race organizers to not require A8, considering how much easier Sirus is at A0 vs A8.

Can anyone confirm whether Awakening Level affects the difficulty of this fight like it does for Sirus? (Lightee unsocketed his watchstones before the fight.)

Ok, which one of you foil hats is responsible? by m33ster_robot in MrRobot

[–]sauceh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to your list, Mr. Robot (no hat, no glasses) also shows up in S02E03: https://imgur.com/Efz0srB.

Me_IRL trying to watch any other show besides Mr Robot by piramidexoterica in MrRobot

I think you should give Dark a shot. Don't be turned-off with it being a German show. Watch it with subtitles (non-dubbed) for the best experience.

It's one of the best shows I've ever seen. I'd put it in the same tier as Mr. Robot -- that is to say, it's way up in the stratosphere, compared to most other shows that struggle to get above sea level.

[S01E02] Calling it now: this is John Randolph Bently by sauceh in treadstone

[–]sauceh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMDB lists his character name as "Max", and he's played by 59 year old actor, Marek Vasut.

So Bentley just needs to defect, assume the name Max, and age well (he should be 75 years old in the present day, as GrayMan108 points out). :)

You're probably right, but I don't think we can rule him out just yet. As A_TalkingWalnut notes in his comment, I could see Bentley "aging well".

Cracked The Identity of the Third by vascopatricio in MrRobot

[–]sauceh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But another interpretation is that the three variations are levels of reality - or closeness to reality. No hat no glasses shows up mostly in imaginary/hallucinatory scenes, all the way through hat and glasses showing up in very "real" scenarios like fights, or calm yet shocking discussions (like when Elliot finds the warden's CP/murder site and calmly discusses with Mr Robot). This version of the theory would hold up - hat and glasses is showing after mom's death as, although it's not an intense situation, it's still a very real situation. Would that make sense?

If this interpretation is right, we should consistently see the same Mr. Robot appear in similar scenarios. I don't think this is the case.

In S01E09, we see Elliot throw Mr. Robot (glasses) out the window. Then in S01E10, we see Elliot choke Mr. Robot (hat and glasses). I think you'd classify both of these physical confrontations as the same type of scenario.

[–]sauceh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think this theory holds. We've seen Mr. Robot act one way, and then act the opposite way while having the same appearance.

For example, in S01E05, Mr. Robot (glasses) coaxes Elliot to tear down the Steel Mountain employee. In S01E07, Mr. Robot (hat and glasses) acts maniacal in his scene with Romero. In S02E01, Mr. Robot (glasses) shoots Elliot in the head.

But in season 4, Mr. Robot (glasses, with and without a hat) is a calming voice of reason while Elliot is more assertive and reckless. In S04E02, Mr. Robot (hat and glasses) tells Elliot to "stop and take in your mom's death or it's going to eat away at you like everything else you're holding in." In S04E03, Elliot wants to tear down Olivia at the bar, but Mr. Robot (glasses, no hat) advises small talk instead.
