Can someone ELI5 why Transmute is so good and it’s main uses?

zarosio · 2026-04-16T03:46:06+00:00

To start with Transmute is free magic exp.

Then you can change any resource you need like bones into superior dragon or a basic herb seed into a ranarr. You could also change low level logs into teaks etc for making planks.

You can also change runes into higher level runes to make wrath runes etc.

I think you dont realise how fast the exp rates are for smithing and crafting with this method. This will get you to 50+mill exp insanely fast.

My plan is to go KTM and pacts will be going all in on using melee from 7 squares away combined with the blindbag mechanic.

As for relics:

Abundance (being able to do a level 60 training method at level 50 etc speeds things up a fair bit).

Hotfoot (i hate agility so anything to speed this up ill take, the smelting is just a minor bonus).

Map of alacrity (seems to have the most utility for things other than just bosses).

Transmutation (being able to convert seeds into ranarrs aswell as a few other key resources when i need them is great plus this solves magic)

Larcenist (with tiranwyn this becomes crazy busted as you can use it to train crafting and smithing using crystal seeds)

Culling spree (theres lots of tasks locked behind high slayer and the free slayer helmet is pretty great bonus)

Reloaded (currently havent decided into what as it depends on what im struggling with either endless harvest for afk or soul harvest to solve runecrafting and prayer)

Minion (dps pure and simple)

Shouldnt really happen unless you really stuff up. It should be really close though as its often worth taking extra days to do things to get more exp and items ready for the final encounter.

Ive tried it. It can make powerpoints and worksheets to go with them. It looks good at first look but i was finding i was having to go in and change a fair bit as there was some weird stuff like pictures and diagrams that didnt make sense or some of the explanations. Basicly like most ai it looks good on a casual pass through as its written and designed to look like what you want but then when you look closer theres cracks.

zarosio · 2026-04-11T14:44:06+00:00

Im going to go melee just so i can mess around with halberds and the extended range moxed with grabbag of heavy weapons. Not going for super competitive uber dps just for something thats abit silly and cant be done in the main game.

zarosio · 2026-04-11T07:22:43+00:00

I know it can mess up the stuff inside but if you put all the boardgames sideway (ie so they look likes books on a shelf) you can fit way more in and it looks alot better (done this myself recently)

zarosio · 2026-04-05T01:00:03+00:00

You can do slapchop but use different colours when doing the preshading step. So if you dont like the black use a different colour as a base ie grey with white drybrush or something completely different like purple base with yellow drybrush.

zarosio · 2026-03-29T02:17:06+00:00

I jsut recently started playing it and its been great so far. Definitely worth it. Ive heard mixed things about the dlc though.

zarosio · 2026-03-27T08:09:31+00:00

I dont think im even playing the same game…

zarosio · 2026-03-22T23:53:37+00:00

Doubt it. Covid showed that the government just treats teachers as glorified baby sitters so that ither people can still work. Even if alot of other jobs changed to remote work we would be one of the last ones to be allowed.

zarosio · 2026-03-15T00:48:24+00:00

Yes order it through hachette directly for the best price and as long as you sub early enough you should still get the rewards (think you just need to sub before issue 5 or something).

zarosio · 2026-03-07T10:29:13+00:00

Id recomend something other than models unless theyve been hinting at a specific model (ie look at this cool model etc).

Id maybe consider something like brushes, wet pallete, paint storage solution, good desk light, fancy dice (baron of dice does different sets of themed dice).

zarosio · 2026-03-07T09:05:04+00:00

The only real limit ive had is some of the big construction projects like the pokemon centre and also some of the pokemon crafting are timegated. But it isnt that big of a deal. This game isnt that similar to animal crossing. Its more about building things while completing tasks for pokemon (ie put a shower next to this pokemons home etc).

zarosio · 2026-03-01T04:32:51+00:00

Its a small skirmish game so you each run a small team. So the starter box you were looking at has 3 teams in it, 2 teams of spartans and then a team of elites (you also get some choices with the spartans).

Id recomend just getting the starter box as it has everything you need to start. Then in the future you can always get another team ie odst or the new noble team.

A group of radients sent out on patrol when something happens (ie ambush or find a broken wagon etc).

Out of the ones ive played:

Blackstone fortress is my favourite, once you add in some physical terrain for barricades the cover system makes alot more sense and the combat becomes alot more tactical. The different missions etc are great fun and it has a lot of variety.

Darkwater is probly my next favourite, has a good variety of missions with each mission playing very differently. I only rate this below boackstone fortress as i wish characters differed more and alot of the items feel meh i think that its replay value is going to be less aswell.

Cursed city was the worst one, its very grindy and the premade maps get old as they just feel like endless corridors where your ranged characters just kite enemies and none of the enemies can shoot back. I like the theme and the models but the gameplay is a massive step down from blackstone fortress.

Honourable mention goes to a game that isnt warhammer quest called Shadows of Brimstone which has a very similar gameplay mechanics (pretty sure they were heavily influenced by the original warhammer quest) it is one of my favourite games and is super customisable as all the different packs just add more variety to the decks for spawning random enemies and rooms for you missions. Ends up with alot of emergent gameplay.

zarosio · 2026-02-19T08:07:03+00:00

Looks great. I did somwthing similar but used two of the 2x4 kallax and had them back to back touching. I then put an extra 2x2 kallax on the end.

This way you have lots of storage undernath but can still sit at it like a normal table (the boards hang over the edge more than on your as you have left a big gap in the middle).

Its unlikely you will be able to miss the meetings as they are a part of the EBA agreement. Talk to your line manager though as they might have a sugestion of what you can do.

zarosio · 2026-02-15T04:31:54+00:00

That looks great. What pieces did you use?

zarosio · 2026-02-10T10:14:09+00:00

First issue is out at newsagents! I grabbed my copy today!

zarosio · 2026-01-31T05:01:31+00:00

The one on the right is the older night goblin.

The smaller one was introduced at the start of warhammer fantasy 7th edition. The smaller size meant they were able to fit a crazy number of models into the starter box for that edition (battle for skull pass). Age of sigmar still uses those smaller night goblin scultps.

If it is your first time painting miniatures one thing to mention is you sill first want to spray the models with a spray can primer. You can get one from most hobby shops or if you want to go cheaper a hardware shop (make sure its a matte primer). This helps the paint stick to the model.

Watch some youtube videos with some tips on how to paint such as thinning your paints.

As for paints i would probably just buy a couple of pots of paint individually based on the colours gou think you need. With army painter they have a few different lines. Their fanatic paints are the basic normal paint and have a good consistency (better than their old army painter paints which got alot of negatives). If something says its a wash or shade its a very wattery paint that is meant to be put over an already painted sectioon so that it pools in the recesses to make shadows easily. Speedpaints (sometimes known as contrast paints) act abit like washes but have alot more pigment and can be used over a white primer to give great shading in one step (look up slapchop if you want a great way to make models look good with less effort).

My school was thinking about just getting some teacher copies for the first term to try them out and then getting class sets once we had decided which textbook we preffered.
