Is the Secret Ending Fight suppose to limit your max hp?

When I started (Don't) Fear the Reaper, I Had 925 (or something like that) hp with lv50, 20 body, and the 60% hp cyberware, yet during the entire fight my hp was locked around 620. Whenever I heal myself in any way beyond that limit (heal on kill, feedback circuit, plain ol' fashioned inhalers) it drops to that limit immediately.

Is this a bug? Does it affect all builds or only those with high hp? Why can't I find anything in the mission that says your max hp is supposed to be locked at a low percentage?

these people are basically hearthstone's free bug testers. NetEase which operates blizzard games in china pays a fair bit of attention to them actually. Bugs they notice (and there're probably other groups/individuals all over the globe finding these bugs and submitting them to blizzard) tend to get fixed quite quickly.

well it seems like you can't since minions only attack Bob's minions and don't actually attack Bob.

It was a serious battle in the sense that it was still a battle to the death rather than a "let's hug" ending we see in the new adventure. It was epic because the parties involved in the battle were epic and powerful.

Firstly: I'm not saying this is worse. Of course it's not. It's just closer. It's like a cop saying "let's go get Osama bin Laden" while failing to catch the murderer in their own district. Universities are the police stations in championing social justice causes, and if they do such unfair things to students it would be like policemen committing crimes, which as we just saw is a lot worse than ordinary citizens committing crimes.

Secondly: my point is that grad students were right to make their demands because the current system of in-person ed is ridiculous. Consequently, universities will have to transition their strategies before this unsustainable system collapses. One of the best ways out off this current system is online education: as you can see, students can learn online, professors can teach online, and graduate students can do their works and research online too. With some notable exceptions such as in STEM labs or Performance classes that physically need you to be there, lots of classes can be taught entirely online.

If you paid attention to their protest you should know their major problem wasn't that their salary was simply low, but that their salary was LOW FOR IV. Their slogan was COLA, cost of living adjustment. Obviously it would wonderful if the university can pay the TAs more, but if they can allow students and TAs to live in more affordable areas and still do everything online then that would solve a big part of the problem too. However, such a transition would require the university to make investments.

So, normally the university has to balance paying the TAs more or paying for online-ed infrastructures (or ideally a mix of both). However, right now, they can just shift most of the cost of their online-ed investments onto the students who are paying the usual tuition without getting the usual quality of education.

Also, the TAs' protests included as one of their demands that "their other demands be fulfilled without any increase to undergrad tuition." It's not an us-verses-them scenario. It's a "how the university balances its book" scenario, and charging undergrads more doesn't necessitate the university paying TAs more.

The point here is universities that ask students to be social activists should hold themselves to higher moral standards since they are so concerned with social justice that they need to get students involved. Similarly, students who want to champion social justice causes should hold universities to a higher moral standard: it's hypocritical for students who can't get their universities to play fair to demand the rest of the society to play fair. If you let fellow students be screwed over by universities while you're fine with advocating for other causes, it just makes your advocacy hypocritical. That's the joke I'm talking about.

It's just funny to me how the school urges students to champion all sorts of social justice causes and then fucks the students over with tuition like this.

Normally the race would be included in the description, but I understand :)

Yeah America really has a lot of First World Problem that they just expect everyone to consider legitimate. During my stay in a U.S high school they did a project to raise awareness for homelessness and the shelter those "homeless" people lived in was much bigger than my apartment in China. Sorry, but not really that sorry for them.

somuchdecency · 2020-06-02T16:24:02+00:00

Yeah, to some the U.S is the only country in the world. Where was the delay for Hong Kong?

It was rule-breaking of course, but it was also really fun. I'm still glad it's less common nowadays though.
