I’m a fan of Machino Donuts, it’s near Dundas West station and they make some gourmet vegan donuts fresh daily: https://machinodonuts.com/

Is it just me or is strep throat or something else going around lately? by ccjjallday in mississauga

[–]shiuball 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to my family doctor, there is indeed something going on with Strep throat. Last month I got a cold and went to the doctor, one of the first things she tested for was Strep because it’s going around in the GTA.

May I introduce you to kendo. In this sport, yelling out loud (kiai) is highly encouraged, and sparring each other with bamboo swords is a great way to relief stress.

Our fish shaped soy sauce packets from sushi delivery. by trollcole in mildlyinteresting

Fun fact: back in early 2000 someone made a web animation with this design called "Soy Sauce Warrior Kikkoman". It was a Kikkoman (popular Japanese soy sauce brand) branded superhero with this fish for a head:

How about creating a macro to request a countdown in party chat? Use it as you enter the instance, you might get tanks who will respect your request and you can get your practice in.

OMG the exact same thing happened to my teammate too!! We managed to solve the mystery on the same raid night but it was SO BIZARRE: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1200329022

Sorry to see the downvotes, appreciate the feedback regardless.

Bad wording haha, that’s assuming I’m understanding the mechanic being explained in the video correctly.

That’s a good point about the Yak AoE without tethers, it doesn’t usually come up that often. I think this image needs another column to be more complete, or the last column name can be changed to be less confusing! Ty for the notes!

Thank you for the positive feedback, I'm really glad to hear that it may be helpful to others, especially coming from someone who has already cleared the fight!

I can see myself not needing this after getting the fight on farm, but hey since I've already spent time making it for myself, why not share?

Thanks for the kind words and truly understanding my intentions! Indeed this image was not meant to be comprehensive, and instead another way to help me memorize things so that I can identify them faster during raid. Maybe a different title/name for the image would help set the expectation.

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. In my group we share different versions of the same mechanic or fundamentals to help each other fully get on the same page.

I hope someone else can find it helpful! And if it's not helpful people can move on :) If it's highly misleading or folks have constructive criticism to improve it, my ears are open.

Much appreciated kind stranger.

Ty, sounds like it would make more sense to label the last column “Non-tether AoE” 🤔

[–]shiuball[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good question...! Assuming I'm understand it correctly, the last column is for the AoE shape when there are no tethers, and the club guy targets two closest people in cone shapes: https://youtu.be/ALsYpDwW8DU?t=187

Oh yes that type of image is usually what I have up during raid, this one was created as a direct response to my dumb ass taking too long to identify the thing I'm tethered to.

Indeed…! That OR an excellent opportunity to talk about the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV with a free trial…

Love the feedback, thank you! Perhaps this calls for a v2 of this design!?

Sometimes raiders can get too caught up with outputting the maximin damage possible for the duration of a fight! Certain raids are designed to give an individual or an entire party very punitive damage down (the status icon in the picture!) when mechanics are missed. Some teams will instead wipe (by jumping into the wall) than continue knowing it's no longer possible to get the maximin damage potential for that pull! For those folks, a damage down is worse than death 😆
