The original paper/abstract the news article is summarising.

I just want to see photonicinduction blow an even bigger fuse

Scaramouche(1952) gets it right - Stewart Granger and Mel Ferrer were both excellent fencers - bit of swashbuckling, lots of skill, and no distractions, fast cuts, or cheesy music for like 10 minutes.

Whether that would appeal to general current movie audiences is a completely separate question...

Perihelion Ship does a nice mix that might appeal

it's ok, you can buy replacement smoke

Rafferty's Chocolate Custard baby food - cost went up slightly, ingredients changed with way less actual cocoa. Now it's pale, looks and tastes like skimmed milk with sugar and is pretty horrible.

We used to buy it for getting medicine into pets, with a little bit on a spoon. Now they look at it with suspicion.... if a rat is side-eyeing your food maybe you've made it too cheap and nasty.

"My Yandere Girlfriend Lurks in the Dungeon and Kills Me Over and Over Again" is a pretty good manga with horror elements - not isekai though, but based on resets a bit like Re:zero

I'd also recommend ep 217 of the Main Engine Cut Off podcast, interview with Mike Gold, one of main architects/authors of the accords, about how it was structured and what it was trying to achieve -

'So,' is a great way to start a story! If its good enough for Beowulf, its good enough for anything

The other thing to check, is the battery attached to the wall properly? There should be a bracket system I think to tie it to wall to prevent toppling. Battery installer guide should cover it

not a story, but an awesome short comic, bad space

Neverwinter Online....

close enough. Back to the castle we go!

So additionally, once a week you can do the 'confidential commerce' task from the Demonweb pits campaign page - this gives 50 powder, costs abyssal powder +some other currency. Currency wise that's fine, since closing the abyss weekly task in Narbondellyn is a good task to do weekly, gives 20k AD for closing only a few abyssal tears and gets abyssal powder as a byproduct.

I'm trying to figure that out -

First stop is definitely Reapers Challenge: 5 marks gives 1 leg insignia, gives 250 powder every five days (plus any skill notes you open in dungeon, plus any chance of crit)

Or you can use trade bars, and buy powder, 30 TB -> 20 pow

You can use TB and buy insignia, then break them down; 100TB -> 1 purple insig -> 50 powder

So TB to powder seems better, specially with VIP and trade discount (coming up in a few weeks). But I was wondering about critical. But if only 1 in 10 chance of crit like Lairs mentioned above, then 10 purple gives 525 instead of 500 on average... still worse than just buying powder.

Or use trade bars to buy scrolls of mass life, then sell in AH, and buy Insignia. 10TB gives one scroll, sells for about 5500 AD. So need about 80-90TB to get 45k AD, to get one Purple insignia. In theory better, but you need VIP to avoid 10% auction fees, and no guarantee of scroll sale. This used to be good when purple insignia was 35k, but prices have now gone up.

But guildmate said the best way was to just run MLMD or MDWP, and get high value items to sell, get AD, then just buy insignia from auction house...

Definitely the worst way is to grind skill nodes - they only give 1 green (2 powder), maybe only 10% of the time. so much time and so little return. If you want to grind, do something that makes AD like random, or do legacy quests for marks of potency, sell them for AD.

Open to any other ideas if people have suggestions!

oh for sure it could save the wipe - but I keep thinking about the practical scenario - with a trial it would be down to 6, and the healer would need 10sec without being attacked to revive them - it might work if both the tanks are still up, but if one or both of the tanks are down, I don't think the healer will get the undisturbed time. Plus if both tanks have been down enough time to be permadead, maybe it would be time to reconsider the trial as perhaps biting off more than one can chew...

Definitely I agree I could see it working with the bridge dash in SH, where it might really save things - wonder if thats what they had in mind?

I'm mildly OK with it I guess! I don't use guardian of life, so that passes me by a bit and the 10s casting time looks like it would be hard to use in combat. Hard to imagine a scenario in a trial or dungeon where it could work or make a difference. The anointed army changes are more interesting, as I use that and divine glow a lot. I also use hallowed ground, so a lot of my chosen powers are getting upgrades - I guess my concern is I've never really thought DC was that much underpowered compared to the other healers, and all of these changes could make DC significantly stronger (and maybe with fewer viable playstyles?) - so it will end up unbalanced and they'll have to nerf some of the changes in a while to restore balance?

oops yeah! 24 was touchdown on Earth, not Moon!

In my defense, I wasn't even 1 year old then, so not very good at dates

not OP, but I was 9 months old when the moon landing happened, I'm now 57. If someone was born only a few days before the landing, they could be 56 now, until July 2026.

Apollo 11 Moon landing was 24 July 1969. edit: 20th, not 24th

ugh, that's nasty, I hope the boss put you on the right path. 2.5e is where it's at.
