(shattered) ascended blazing sniper build

Spirit bow has blooming and speed augment. Spawn grass and burn everything at range with the blazing crossbow buffed darts and sniper's mark ability, artifacts and haste armor ability to get away or run through the fire. This build did monstrous aoe damage, spawning massive blazes nearly every fight

The real star of this run was the parchment scrap. Since the update where energizing potions and scrolls identifies them, it feels very viable to identify all of the extra scrolls and potions from the first 4 floors by energizing them and pumping that into the parchment scrap. 10x enchantment/glyph find and 0x curse find on armor and weapons is a wild effect to have before floor 5. In the posted run I got a lucky weapon early with this strategy which snowballed into RoW drops, making a build that felt very strong starting on floor 4 and continuing for the rest of the game

  • I get around this by setting my passwords to something easy to type like *******

    Completely unrelated, does anybody know why my bank balance always goes back to 0 immediately after my paystubs are deposited?

  • 👌Consistency 👌
  • I felt this way until the first time I had a tomato that had never been refrigerated. Turns out that the enzymes that make tomatos taste good denatures at fridge temps, and makes them taste like grainy mush. If you ever get a chance to try a fresh tomato, I can't guarantee you'll like it but I can guarantee it's a significantly different taste and texture than the cold ruined tomatoes you find at a grocery store

  • Sapphic polyrule
  • Disclaimer: I'm a straight cis man, but I have/have had quite a few lesbian friends over time who have explained this joke to me. Take my explanation with the appropriate grain of salt

    "the dating pool is tiny to nonexistant" is a common complaint I've heard from lesbians I know, probably related to the fact that I've mostly lived in rural areas. Given the low availability of partners, its more common to jump into relationships quickly and really commit to them. I've also heard a lot of "I really want somebody to live with me so I don't just choke on something and die". Probably less common nowadays, but I'm from a generation when it was harder to be gay publicly --> harder for lesbians to find roommates. Living with other women often meant being stigmatized by straight women that don't understand lesbians are people and not just sex crazed harlots, and honestly that but worse because of a higher threat of violence with straight men. I've heard that moving in with a romantic partner as a lesbian is a move that lets you have a roommate with less objectification related to your gender/orientation. Again, idk how much of that is true today, but that is my understanding of the origins of the joke

  • Tier-1 run complete (with a caveat)
  • Hell yeah! Can't wait to see your post when you pull it off. I lost that freerunner on f23/24 to a misjudged blast wave that knocked me down the chasm into a big room with a scorpion out of vision. I still think it could be a winning seed if not for my skill issue lol

  • Tier-1 run complete (with a caveat)
  • I have a run 2 challenge run

    That might be able to come close on 2 challenges right now. I haven't been playing it as an equipment restricted challenge, but this build feels insane and only really relies on darts, free-runner talents with the cloak, and the ring and wands. Plus seeds to tip the darts. Most of the kills are "shoot corrosion, freerun and/or stealth and/or blast wand away, finish kills with darts after letting the orange cloud of death do its work". The armor doesn't matter because you never get hit and the upgrades I spent on the crossbow could go into the ring or the wand if you were planning it from the start. MDV-GYJ-SFX if you wanna try it, on shattered. The challenges are hostile champs and badder bosses

  • I will not apologise
  • Afaik this is how to make a Cuban espresso. I was taught to mix the sugar with the first few drops inside the moka pot, but I'm sure it would do the same thing mixed in a glass

  • US Wants To Deploy Controversial Missile System to Japan
  • I do have one counterargument. Get ratio'd, dumbass. To be clear, that is a blatant personal attack made because I have no respect for you or your suspiciously pro chinese shit-takes. You make the claim that a y-9 military Reconnaissance plane isn't threatening because the lethal part of the weapon systems they enable are not physically located on said plane. How the fuck do you think target acquisition and guidance for mid to long range weapons works? Weapons like the Chinese df17, which is comparable to the US typhon system and already in position to fire on Japan. Any opinions about that one? Does Japan not have the same right to territorial defense as China? Enlighten me with your "realistic political understanding"

  • US Wants To Deploy Controversial Missile System to Japan
  • Lol, fuck off tankie. I'm not interested in debating apologists asking for asinine burdens of proof and resorting to childish personal attacks in their first response to my words. Go whine about me on grad or to your handler.

  • US Wants To Deploy Controversial Missile System to Japan
  • China is full of shit about it being unintentional, they've been playing grey zone games for quite a few years now and the nations around them have caught on. I'd argue missile deployment is exactly proportional to an unplanned breach of airspace by a military asset. It's historically a pretty good idea to build up your defense when a neighbor is brandishing their military on your borders

  • atoms don't touch
  • Quarks are forever ruined by the decision to get rid of the truth and beauty quark nomenclature in favor of top and bottom. Iirc it was done because some physicist was afraid of a headline "physicists fail to find truth" when they were trying to prove the existence of the top quark

  • "take a few months off and take care of yourself"

    I'm currently working on a PhD, and I had a meeting that felt like an intervention with my advisor where she encouraged me to take a few months away from the program to take care of myself. For context, I used to work for the airforce, and apparently I picked up some pretty severe mental health problems that have lead to not sleeping and panic attacks when I read papers about military hardware (not ideal when my current interest is hardware side cybersecurity).

    What the fuck does "take care of yourself" mean? Like, I don't know what to do with my hands. I've spent my entire life with a fast paced schedule, either with school work or some other crisis I've needed to attend to. Now I'm like... trying to accept going to therapy and I'm doing yoga with some people in my research group a few times a week, but i don't know what to do with my time otherwise. I feel like smoking all of the weed in this state playing video games and rotting in bed isn't the answer, but that's where I'm at. I'd love any advice or to hear from anybody who's been in that position of being told to take a few months off for mental health
