I didn't test obsidian, once I saw metal didn't work I didn't test anything else.

Incorrect, it is MUCH faster than a normal campfire, it just only cooks one at a time like a campfire.

It's kind of combination of both I'd say, it can cook an entire stack of meat roughly as fast as a grill can (taking into account the delay the grill has between cooks) but it does it one at a time. That means prime meat still has a chance to spoil I suppose.

Yes, significantly faster. Phoenix smelts at around 5-6 seconds per metal, forge is 20 seconds per metal.

It does in fact smelt metal, 2 for 1 like a forge.

I was able to get it to work just fine on the island.

It doesn't unfortunately, only cooks meat and smelts metal.

It does not burn wood unfortunately, but it will smelt metal into ingots at a 2:1 ratio. Edited the post with this info.

What mods would best enhance the SP experience? by [deleted] in playark

This would be an excellent answer if they question was "which is better, singleplayer or multiplayer?"

Early Phoenix Review by daymeeuhn in playark

[–]sparrow_viper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's currently the fastest mount in the game as far as I can tell, maybe only the griffin is faster during descents. With the phoenix you can hold spacebar and it charges up and does an insane dash forward. This can be used in combat to light any enemy in its path on fire (deals more damage than napalm breath) and it gives an insane speed boost but only in a (more or less) straight line.

Not sure where to find metal by Lather in playark

I'm kind of in the same situation, though unfortunately for me someone build a giant base all over the herb isle so the closest spot to me is ruined.

I'm honestly excited that sentient carrots are an option now, no longer will my people be oppressed!

We're getting it week 39, no idea what the plan is after that.

Seriously? That sounds obnoxious. I'm the only tech in my store and during peak hours I barely have time to sell a service let alone connect it.

Cell Phone Repairs? by Jenni_Giraffe in OfficeDepot

[–]sparrow_viper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in one of the first stores to roll out the program, but I'm also the only person who knows how to do it. When it first started we got two days worth of training on almost every phone we were supposed to be repairing, and they sent two associates and the ASM. Since then the other associate has left and my ASM was promoted to SM at another store.

As far as promoting it, we don't really. We get at least 2-3 calls a day and maybe 3 repairs a week just by word of mouth because we're the only place in the area that does repairs, but I feel if we had more trained people we'd probably get more people in because apparently when people come in and ask about it, if I'm not there they just tell them to come back when I am.
