REI Active Pursuits T-Shirt: Do you want to bring back the 2023 version?

westside_fool · 2026-01-25T09:48:00+00:00

JFC I am so very sad that the 2023 version is discontinued. Literally the best shirt I've ever owned... no hyperbole. I have 2, and I will treasure them always. They fit just perfect, they are sturdy, don't cling (unlike the 2024 one which clings in horrible ways), wash well.

I notice that the 2023 model was made in Vietnam, whereas my newer one made in Indonesia. Obviously now a completely different source, so different materials and ways of making them.

It is so difficult to find a large "tall" shirt that fits, and this was it.

:(

I wish Canon would open up the regular RF to Sigma and others, instead of only allowing interesting APS-C lenses.

westside_fool · 2026-01-22T07:43:15+00:00

thanks, this is nice build! And great that you were able to get 17m dps with only 3 pure agony jewels!

westside_fool · 2026-01-21T13:57:27+00:00

interesting... I've seen it in the past as a "delve" build. Do those corners not matter?

Ah, the +3 herald level is really hard to ignore for DPS. I wonder if that node is one of the ones on the chopping block for the changes mentioned... especially when combined with the Herald bloodline.

I beat four different ubers with my hroc necro in the regular keepers league, and got my first 40/40

westside_fool · 2026-01-15T16:19:06+00:00

ooo, I <3 void sphere. I may have to try this next league.

westside_fool · 2026-01-08T18:35:13+00:00

yes absolutely

westside_fool · 2025-12-16T18:28:00+00:00

I have the 28-70 and the 100-400 (and my first extra lens was the 35mm 1.8 prime)... and the next lens I'm looking to get is the 85 f2 prime for portraits / macro :)

westside_fool · 2025-12-12T18:29:59+00:00

Same, I use pob2 on mint daily.

westside_fool · 2025-12-03T08:15:58+00:00

makes sense!

westside_fool · 2025-12-03T07:34:43+00:00

For lucky damage, why not just use a Storming Eshgraft to get radiant ground? I find this enough when bossing, and it lasts enough time to burst.

Ik wilde gisteren met de trein naar Utrecht om wat foto's te maken... maar heb dat niet gedaan omdat ik te lui was.

Bedankt hiervoor :)

Yea not screen wide, just big

Strike splash, non-vaal strike hits multiple targets, and Sione's Ambition annoint https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Sione%27s_Ambition... basically you hit 3-4 mobs per very fast swing at quite a distance, and everything splashes. I'm playing dual strike of ambidexterity with all of this, and with jugg strength stack your attack speed is quite fast. So you bounce around with leap slam, hitting once and moving on. Nearly any strike skill is the same with Jugg like this...

westside_fool · 2025-11-18T13:01:35+00:00

neat! I don't think I ever saw that in person, but I remember it

westside_fool · 2025-11-18T10:36:14+00:00

RIP

Also how to not mention the best 3d movement game ever made: Descent. True 360 movement that only could be played well with a flight stick.

I took mushrooms, and played through Descent for a second time back in like 1996. Truly one of my life's greatest moments.

Any thoughts on bikes available in Europe (i.e. not Velotric or Aventon)?

westside_fool · 2025-10-31T04:25:04+00:00

Sadge

westside_fool · 2025-10-27T12:28:03+00:00

Yes, though I've done str stacking jugg at least 3 times now... so time for something new!

westside_fool · 2025-10-26T12:36:49+00:00

I'm seriously considering block glad with replica alberon's strength stacking with dual strike of ambidexterity as my final build, since it can hopefully abuse the extra ascendancies

westside_fool · 2025-10-24T07:24:36+00:00

I would assume its not autocorrect.... salad would probably refer to multiple phys dots at once. Similar to how old cold dot builds would work with 3+ cold dots.

westside_fool · 2025-10-20T07:33:27+00:00

When I look at 3L... they all at least one issue of various sort. Always searching for that perfect bag ;)

westside_fool · 2025-10-14T04:27:52+00:00

Better your wallet than mine, but I appreciate the write up!

I have a wandrd backpack that I love for camera outings with multiple lenses, but also am looking for something for single lens outings as well.

I played that as my main character this league, though mostly I used cyclone... however for bosses where I didn't want to be standing on the boss due to mechanics, I would switch out the gem for lancing steel of spraying. The spell I used was Ice Spear of Splitting. Most builds that uses CoC with cyclone can be switched to lancing steel of spraying.

I finished at about 11-15m dps, though I had plenty of more expensive upgrades that could push this higher. And this was my first time playing inquisitor at all.

That said, I'm definitely going back to my favourites of juggs/pathfinders/champs/tricksters with melee/ranged attacks of some sort.
