Here we go again (also, tacoboo +0)

[cryptor_00]

So... it's almost like nothing has changed since last week... as i'm back in the library learning how to look up articles.

Again.

Yay.

OK... i need to think of some more interesting things to talk about...

I posit that the Sac State library seminar isn't taught in Sacramento, but rather in Purgatory -- it explains the taco/boo 0 score and your "meh" disposition.

Does WoW not have the same problem that Guild Wars has after reaching a certain experience level in the game? If not, I'd advise still maintaining contact with the outside world and maintaining regular hygiene so that you don't end up like most WoW players.

I say you tow your car to Oak Park and just abandon it there -- it will get sold, even if in pieces.

-That would explain alot. Withe the air conditioning out, it was even semi-warm-but-not-really.

-wow does have the same problem, it's just that it takes so much longer to reach lev 60 that it would likely maintain my interest for longer. However, if i do go that route, i plan on going all the way, quitting my job/school, as well as good hygiene habits. After all, i'm a purist.

-I have reliably gotten offers for $100, so if all else fails, i will take that.

I can't think of any point to gw after i have hit lev 20 and maxed all my gear
Um, I thought you played for the challenge? The point of the level cap is to encourage strategic play, instead of relying on your high level and/or equipment (or such is my understanding). GW isn't Diablo. Personally, I plan to play through at least a few hundred more hours of GW and the various expansions.

I recently replaced my ancient paintball gun, and am now the proud owner of an Ion, an entry-grade electro marker
Cool, now we have someone to fling paint from the back lines! What did you decide to do about CO2 vs HPA?

[cryptor_00]

I guess it is, but there doesn't seem anything much strategic in the way the game is played. I just skipped all the missions since getting to drok and have re-started there, and my strategy of bringing a full party and hacking the crap out of every single enemy that comes near me seems to work just fine. Everyone keeps talking about how you need to get your armor infused, but i don't see why, as my axe will kill mursaat before they do any real damage

[minion82]

Yeah, I can't really argue most of the missions, as the vast majority require very little real strategy (there are one or two that differ, and if you haven't played those yet, we oughta try one tonight). While walking around, the only real strategy input for me is deciding which skills to equip, particularly since the enemies are so strong now that I must balance damaging them (fire) and weaking them (curses), while still keeping myself alive. Luci and I have definitely been slaughtered a couple times while just wandering around areas that we can ostensibly handle. So at least the enemies actually pose a challenge as you go further along.

If you want a truly difficult task, I've been salivating to take out Rotscale (look him up on the wiki). Now *that's* a pure strategy battle. Be thrilled to try that one anytime you want; Ian's level might be the limiting factor.

What's the major difference in hard mode? Is it just better AI?

[cryptor_00]

hard mode = better ai/more damage/more hp... etc. probably not much different, except for more regular target-switching and better evasion of aoe skills (neither of which matter much to me).

I guess i could try changing around my skills some, but since i'm currently running a modified version of one of the most well-respected PvE warrior builds, i doubt i'll have better luck with anything else.

Rotscale looks like a fun battle; exactly the kind of thing i like :)

yay WOW! =))
if you join, do so on the Proudmoore server so we can chat. =)

[cryptor_00]

thanks, i'll keep that in mind :)

- OOoooooOOOOooo a tea garden... what is that anyway?

- I double checked, in GW, after lvl 20 your attack/damage mod keeps going up with each additional level (so have hope) Also, there are some really really hard quests in Eye of the North and even in Factions. I'm about 27 and have gotten my ass kicked. Many are solo missions. Lots of fun.

- Sorry you're still in the same room. Are you requesting weird things again?

- Yay! Cold pizza and video games. Truly a feast fit for the Gods!

[kathrinevbecker]

what's a tacoboo?

[cryptor_00]

hehe

it's where i list all the outstanding good things lately (tacos) as well as the outstandingly bad things (boo's).

For a more rational example, when dancetrue does one, she usually uses the categories of "good" and "bad"

i just like tacoboo better :0

[kathrinevbecker]

exactly as I had surmised. hmm. about anything lately, not just like... pro's and cons? I think this is exactly what I've been looking for...

[cryptor_00]

hehe

the meme-ish structure of lj has caught you in it's net
