You couldn't pay me to play Inferno on hardcore. It's not worth it for the stress involved.

[Aklyon]

The hardcore-based stress or the total derp of a drm-based possible stress?

[alway]

Server lags, you die. Connection drops, you die. Hardcore D3 is pretty much just setting yourself up to be randomly dicked over at some point in the future.

Dwarf head looks entirely too good on full-blown 3d models. We need more of these things, but for now? For now, this made me happy. Tomorrow, perhaps, we can see ones that move~

I can't tell if I'm doing better or not in Blacklight Retribution. The Bolt-Action Rifle is fun to play with though (or its faster cousin, the combat rifle), especially when someone suddenly appears in your face. Or better yet, two people, one trying to use the depot.

I'm a huge fan of the Combat Rifle so far. Three shots and most folks are dead from most distances.

I love the X-ray thing, too. I've never realized how fun that would be in an FPS.

[Frumple]

Never played perfect dark, eh? Pretty sure that was it, anyway. X-ray sniper rifle, shot through walls. Beautiful thing.

[Aklyon]

Two shots at most with the BAR, assuming you have plenty of cover. Heck, I managed to kite a hardsuit with just that gun and some stairs until SUDDENLY ROCKET LAUNCHERS from behind me. Huzzah for people who don't know how to fire the railgun, I guess.

The X-Ray thing is for everyone though, Frumple. Cooldown based too. Can't shoot while using it though, or through walls. Turns everything blue except ye partners and ye enemies.

It's incredibly dangerous to use, though.  It can get you killed almost as often as it can help you avoid bad situations/set up delicious ambushes.

"Let's see where the enemies are.  Oh there's one right around the... shit shit turn off fas---" *BLAM*

Every time you turn the thing on, you're taking a gamble that no hostiles are going to be stumbling across your position for the next 5 seconds or so.

I learned how to solve the third layer of a Rubik's Cube, a whole four years after learning the first two. I am told that many people name their cubes. What gender are cubes, and what could I name it?

[Bauglir]

D&D again. Sketched out a Kobold build that revolves around spending the 1st round of combat shrinking to the size of a housecat, gaining massive damage and to-hit bonuses as a consequence (including a slight Strength increase), and charging into melee to shred opponents with 2 claws and a bite, all at full attack bonus and on the charge (thanks to the miracle of Pounce). I had to spend all my normal feats just to qualify for a single prestige class 1 level early in order to fit it all in, but it was worth it.

How does shrinking make you stronger?

[Frumple]

Ended up writing out some more on the natter I spat out in sad thead. Finished writing for the moment with this, which is happy in a reaffirming-of-purpose-once-more way. Impossible though it likely is, I would hold nothing better than to one day to reach the point where essence finally precedes existence.

My dream is for man to come to the end of all things, when the stars have burned out and all motion and potential for motion has ended, and for man to stand up at that point, say, "I Am the I Am, and though existence may end, I Am will not," and for that truth to write itself anew into the firmament of existence.

Who cares, just paint a heart on the center tile of each side.

How does shrinking make you stronger?

Shenanigans. Actually I just activate a Rage variant and a prestige class ability just after I shrink, causing my Dexterity to skyrocket and my Strength to increase by a net +4 (the shrinking ability actually has a small penalty). In-game, though, I just shrink down into a violent little lizard-ball of rapidly-vibrating hate.

This needs to be turned into a story or a TV show or something. I'm imagining something a la The Incredible Hulk except, yanno, getting smaller.

Also, I don't recall such a prestige class. Mind me asking which it is?
