I should've refrigerated it after opening. This one's on me. |

I never said "this is how it works", I presented the theory that doesn't rely on bots getting lucky that the selected mob/mob type keeps spawning in their vicinity, and it is also the simplest theory that explains all the observations, and thus per Occam's Razor it should be the preferred theory.
Moreover, the game rolls a random mob type theory arose from trying to reconcile Apollyon ??? appearance rates with Temenos ??? appearance rates. I tried to point out I think this is a trap everyone is falling into because Temenos seems like it's bugged and thus its data should be disregarded. Since then SE confirmed they are addressing Temenos ???, so that further confirms my hunch Temenos is bugged. If you accept Temenos is bugged then there really is zero reason to think the game is randomly rolling a mob type or a specific mob.

can attest that after several days the race certificate becomes invalid. not sure if it was 5 days or something less but even without maintenance it definitely becomes invalid by a week later.

I don't think think the ??? pops where the mob is killed but where it spawned I can personally confirm this is 1 gazillion percent wrong as I've popped a ??? myself
Good news, I can confirm the ??? pops as soon as you kill the target mob.

Time to set a budget and build a new one? I have money, I just really hate building a pc and it being out of date within 6 months. I feel like if I wait for DDR6 and also update GPU then it'll get a bit more time before being outdated. |

Just to clarify some things on BSOD. The screen is caused by your computer entering an irrecoverable state. That can be from basically any component in the computer or even any piece of software running on the computer. The BSOD is basically your OS/Kernel crashing. The error display indicates the cause of the crash and where the crash occurred. This doesn't mean that the place that it indicates the root cause though. A failing piece of hardware can cause a crash in another component leading you on a false trail.
As I mentioned software can also be to blame. Excel around 2010 had a beautiful bug where if you accidentally triple click to open excel the 3rd click (if you were slightly slow at clicking) would end up clicking on a cell before the app actually loaded causing a BSOD due to a null pointer. This was a 100% repro lol

Our COR has stage5 and uses it on F and H. Its not quite as strong as Savage but breaks wall and no chance of being ranged while kiting.

You probably missed it because I posted it in the Sortie thread a while ago (and also I haven't updated the wiki yet because I was waiting on someone else to confirm my observations before editing resistances):
https://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/56855/sortie-release-info/170/#3745898
Quote: Apparently, he has some anti-shooting Ranged damage resistance, something to the effect of more than a -90% resistance to ranged damage. The BG wiki page says he takes 100% ranged damage and the notes make no mention of any ranged damage nerf, but as far as at least physical ranged WS damage goes, it has to be like a -90%~99% nerf or so. We had the idea during songs to break up WS and give the COR shooting buffs, since he wanted to try out Terminus with his new toy. It did like 2k damage several times with SV buffs and Bolster bubbles. This must have been SE's way of eliminating the "kite Aminon and shoot him" strategy.
I don't have the exact numbers on what the cut is so I won't edit the wiki page just yet, but if someone else has the opportunity to observe their damage and estimate and confirm what we found, we can edit it afterwards so the page is accurate. |

Never knew, I'm late to the party!
Anyways, on an unrelated note, BST fills useful roles in party or can get creative solo by using a variety of pets for Limbus climbs. Started off using Arthur for ooze, then pulled out Shizuna for Rage/Sheep song. Even at 130 and -50% defense penalty, I was not in any danger defensively from anything with just Sylvie/Ulmia/Koru trust combo, as /DNC for heals. Snarl is invaluable for transferring hate. I could see pulling out Peter for AOE cures if a party ever needed heals. And I've heard of other BST just running in with Patrice and tanking everything (I might try this in Temenos), managing with Digest/Reward.
In Apollyon 130, Kill speed was faster than my BLU and NIN with simple decimation 4-step, but slower than my SAM/DRK, which is interesting. My NIN lacks the necessary attack buffs it needs with trusts that BST can get, and BLU can't self SC as effectively without prime, whereas Decimation is completely busted with the right set/attack. Onslaught and Mistral wasn't doing bad either. Cool place to mess around with BS to fight the boredom

We are running 9-boss (Dnc/Drg, Pld/Run, Brd/Drk, Rdm/Drk, Geo/Drk & myself as Cor/Drk; Have any Cors made an Earp & how is Terminus comparing to Savage Blade? I figured having another option aside Savage Blade would help us along in squeezing in a few more points with the ~5mins left at the end after finishing Amnion Hard. May even give us more time during the whole run as the Brd and myself will not WS wall each other.

I'm still curious how many of the people who see this sort of arrangement negatively have good relationships with their parents. I think that's important, whether or not you live together. The basis upon which the decision (to stay or to leave) should be made is definitely a case-by-case one. The important thing is that there should be no stigma from neither choice. People should do what they gotta do according to their circumstances.
My relationship with my mother improved vastly after I moved out. The brother of that relative I mentioned earlier moved out when he got married, and has had a much better relationship with his dad because of this. There are less chances for interactions = less chances for fritcions. Also the parents will not act as bossy when they realize their kids are not part of "their house" anymore, and will start missing their kids, and would make compromises on issues they're usually stubborn about in order to have more family gatherings with thier kids' families. |

Interesting tidbit. I used Stay on my sheep pet in Apollyon, then warped up. He stayed behind, only came back to my side when I used /heel (he instantly warped to my spot) Yeah that happens as well when jumping up a floor in Omen |

My gf and I spent 2 months living with my mother and her bf while I was waiting to close on my first house and doing the most intrusive renovations. It wasn't that big a deal, and nobody felt rushed to get into the new house asap. Obviously, that's a relatively short term compared to a situation like Zeig's relative.

So who is going to explain to me why I can't touch it and get points? I get "nothing out of the ordinary" but haven't touched one for days. I just entered to touch it without killing anything but I know people who have done this before no problem.

Can also be drive related. Had an issue with BSOD after computer came back up from sleep, turns out it was SDD that neded replacing.

Yeah, sorry for it ended up being a wet noodle that everyone basically already knows. Again, this was probably just a result of me basically treating this game like a single-player FF game for the time I was playing. Unfortunately, up until this point I hadn't discussed what I was doing in depth with anyone really, so I never got any outside perspective of whether utilizing leashing to cleave multiple sectors simultaneously in Sortie was actually a novel idea or not. That's my mistake for assuming it was and I'll admit that.
In any case, when I spoke to Thorny a year ago, he made it pretty clear to me that there really wasn't any good reason why anyone would get into this game. In any serious capacity at least, so that's why I went in with the mentality I did. I decided just to play for what I genuinely enjoy, and not be limited by what the game thinks of me or what other players think of me.
Although it's a shame that the way I play the game doesn't comply with the rules or conventional morality, in a way I think that's what makes these types of games uniquely beautiful. There is no clearly defined goal, and so there is no clearly defined path to said goals. So in a sense, you're free to play how you want (assuming you're okay with the potential risks/consequences of your actions), so that's what I did, and I enjoyed myself in a way that I don't think I ever would have playing the game "legit".
But in any case, it's fair to assume that the reason why I posted this was that I was banned. Maybe there's some funny way I can take a silly selfie or something to pRoVe iT but I don't even think those methods are very reliable so it's w/e, you're free to believe what you want to believe.
Since I never got to experience Sheol Gaol v25s, I technically have a reason to come back, but I just don't have the motivation right now. Maybe someday I'll come back (or maybe I'll end up getting banned while unsubbed?), in any case, it was fun while it lasted. I already spent way too much of my life grappling with that psychological addiction in MMOs so it's best to keep things short and sweet and not linger too long with this stuff.
While the reception ultimately got a little heated with some people due to the twisted expectations I mistakenly set up, I appreciate hearing everyone's input/thoughts around my experience and am grateful for the discussion, so thanks for that!
Are you still talking? Go away. |

I better just invest 90$/month and make sure my investment eventually gets combusted in the process - keeping it a little more casual you know." |

But I was never popular with girls, and Lady Luck spat in my face, instead.

Palmeiras was always its own greatest opponent.
The expensive forward we brought from Barcelona ended the cup with no goal, no assist.
Our best forward was injured and could only play 30 minutes per game.
Our entire defense were out due yellow cards.
The goalkeeper mistake icing the cake, of a great challenge but we wasnt in our best form.
Now I suppose I will cheer for Fluminense to try its best and can at least get to the finals

My dream ends tonight.
Im pretty much sad, but I think Im more sad due the way we lost.
A grave mistake from our cherished goalkeeper.
He totally dont deserve such thing.
Chelsea could simply score other goals in the first half. But the decisive one ended with such important player mistake.
