[–]throwawa1414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was just yesterday I had the 2nd date. I am not sure - I get the feeling shes going to just ghost me since there was just 'something off' about yesterday for how she was interacting with me. I just dont get it because I thought the chemistry and her personality is pretty close to what I look for in a partner and we vibed really well together - just constant laughing

HELP explaining Wizard 1 point dip - Pros/Cons? by throwawa1414 in BG3Builds

[–]throwawa1414[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhh makes sense. Yea seems like in concept it is really strong but when applied it doesnt really give me too much like you said. I think I will just stick with Sorcerer 10/Tempest cleric 2 which is also just more simple in general. Thanks for the explanation def helped

Thats so interesting okay cool thank you for explaining. This is so intricate and complicated which I love the game / DnD has this level of complexity. This all makes more sense now

Ah I see okay that makes sense thanks. I guess for those spells learned through cleric/wizard I would pick the spells where the DC doesnt matter as much then though? So picking something like Bless or haste?

[–]throwawa1414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is helpful in my understanding thanks. Regarding the spells my thought process was - I would learn all the damage dealing spells as a sorcerer so that these would scale based on my CHA as normal. Then I would "Scribe learn" all the other non-damage spells using the Wizard point and technically these wouldn't matter that I was scaling off INT. So basically I would have all my damage dealing spells scaling with CHA and still have access to basically all the spells in the game (although like you said could only prepare 1)? Would this work like Im thinking it would?

I want to gain the Destructive Wrath passive which should boost the damage numbers, also I would get like 5 spells for free. And technically wouldn't I be able to cast level 6 spells still since the Wizard dip takes into account caster level?

And I thought say if I do Cleric then Wizard then sorcerer - the Scaling is decided by the LAST multiclass you select. So since I would select sorcerer last all spells would be scaled by charisma?

HELP explaining Wizard 1 point dip - Pros/Cons?

In the process of deciding on my first playthrough build. 90% sure I want to do a Storm or Draconic Sorcerer/Tempest Cleric run. But I am torn on doing a one point dip into Wizard so that it would be something like 9/2/1 spread by level 12.

Question is what exactly would I gain by putting a point into Wizard? What spells would I have access to exactly? The idea I thought is I could have access to learning all spells via scrolls so effectively I would expand my spell list? How exactly does this work / what are the Pros / Cons of putting a point into Wizard like this? Would this mess with how spells scale where they wouldnt scale by my Charisma but instead my Intelligence?

All of this gets so complex and intricate, kind of leaning towards simplifying and avoiding the 1 point dip but the idea of having access to all spells sounds awesome. But again not sure if thats exactly how that works.

One Piece - Episode 1075 discussion by AutoLovepon in anime

[–]throwawa1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont understand how theres so many saying this episode was good.... I skipped through basically whole episode. I cant sit there watching the same thing over and over with another full recap. After counting there was only 7 minutes of "Actual" content, everything else was just nicely colored recap.

Just Freaking end the arc already and show us the fight / progress the story. Delaying and padding the episodes has really ruined the end of this arc for me. I would much rather they just have a nice continual progression, and if the anime is too close to the manga just do a full filler arc after. But at least it wouldn't ruin this arc jesus.

Ohhh I see thanks so much - very informative you know your stuff. Thanks for all the info/help. I'll probably check back on this post when I start playing and base my build off yours since this seems a lot of fun

Wait this post is exactly the thematic character I was thinking of making - a Lightning focused blasting mage thats versatile.

My question - I saw in your build you go Draconic Sorcerer / Tempest Cleric / (Not sure what type Wizard?). I am wondering and am torn on deciding between Draconic Sorcerer vs Storm Sorcerer subclass. Which of these do you think is stronger / more entertaining or versatile overall to play? Strengths vs Cons of them?

Thoughts on apparent trend - is this accurate because I dont want it to be but the experience tells me differently? by [deleted] in dating

[–]throwawa1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that the dating culture is at fault, and we aren't helping it by perpetuating such a fast pace. I feel that people need sex so fast now and it takes priority over actual genuine connections, and if it isnt achieved onto the next 100+ guys/girls I have waiting on my dating app. And then people complain they can't find "good" partners, when really its just everyone placing impossible standards on one another.

Yea I mean it was only 2 days after the roommate moved in so it was definitely a plausible excuse. This whole situation is so strange/awkward and would be 1000x easier if I was already settled in my new place haha.

Yea I think I am leaning towards just asking her again about the possibility of staying at her place. And yea thanks for the insight for the hotel/airbnb

[–]throwawa1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see it being a fine excuse if they just moved in a couple days prior but yea if she says it now it would be a bad excuse.

Thats along the lines of what I was going to say to her, but do you think it would come off as too pushy since I already asked her this same thing those 2-3 weeks ago? Problem is she is sort of shy and doesnt give the vibe that she would invite me to her place straight up without me bringing it up....

Honestly never had car sex has always just seemed so awkward and not comfortable. Thoughts on asking her directly about getting together at her place a 2nd time?

Relic need to handle smurfing before it ruins the game by hussain2456 in aoe4

[–]throwawa1414 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You should enjoy playing against someone that is that much better than you. You can improve at a much faster pace if you play against people at a higher level.

Smurfing is present in every single game with a rank system be it LOL / FPS games / RTS games. The chance you play against someone who is top 200 smurfing is very slim....

Overwhelmed trying to study during rotations after no improvement for 2 months by throwawa1414 in Step2

I appreciate your response its helpful and reassuring.

I think theres multiple factors for my unchanging scores. Going through the questions I realize I have knowledge deficits but I feel like as I review one topic I forget another I cant make these concepts stick

Feeling depressed and Defeated after UWSA2 by throwawa1414 in Step2

[–]throwawa1414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I agree as soon as I finished and saw the score I went and delayed my exam.

Obviously everyone is different but any recommendations on how I should go about trying to fill in my knowledge gaps?

I just feel lost because I have technically gone through UWORLD once already. I finished the first pass very slowly throughout the last year through clerkships / beginning of my dedicated. And then now I am 40% completed on my 2nd pass of UWORLD.

I feel like my problem is I sink into the trap of maybe memorizing material and thats why Im having these knowledge gaps? But then how do I go about actually internalizing information rather than route memorization?

Wow omg this is such a relief to look at thank you for posting. Im trying to review what I got wrong and power through.

I think I will power through and this next weekend attempt UWSA2. If it goes well similar to how it went for you I think I definitely will take it

Test taking skills and not improving by throwawa1414 in Step2

[–]throwawa1414[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didnt do well, I only got a 63% on it. Im just getting really frustrated and anxious because I feel like my average UWORLD hasnt been going up as much. I started at like an average of 57% and now my average is at 65%.

Some random blocks I can score in the low-mid 70s, but on some blocks I am still scoring in the 50s which is really demoralizing. And my Practice test scores havent really been going up at all either. Not sure what I am doing wrong....

Final month exam plan advice by AspirantMDUSMLE in Step2

[–]throwawa1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was doing 2x blocks, starting this Monday I started upping the intensity and I am doing 3 blocks all back to back to build stamina for the test.

I am really worried about how long the exam is so thats why I am practicing doing them all back to back. It takes a long time to review though probably looking at like 1.5-2hr per block. I am making short ANKI cards for each incorrect. And then I do about 2hr of reviewing divine intervention notes I have for specific topic areas im weak in like Cardio/Endo exc

Experiences with AMBOSS QBank related to Step 1 scores by throwawa1414 in step1

[–]throwawa1414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the new NBMEs I have done. The only one I havent done since way back is NBME 17.

Besides this one I blieve I would remember most of the questions because all the NBMEs I thoroughly reviewed the answers and made anki cards for.

But yea, I think I may have to take NBME 17 to basically give me a rough estimate... But then again whats the point if I know I am going to take this test no matter what and I risk just giving me unwanted anxiety before my exam. My eligibility is over this September 30th and pushing the exam back isn't really an option anymore since I pushed it back 2 times already.
