Right, I have noticed that being tied to special attacks too.
 
Somewhere on the stat page you should see stat proficiencies
An actual question would be a good idea though
 
Yeah, like the fighter gets 120% of any attack stats on weapons.
But only like 80% of resistance.
Is that what you mean?
 
Exactly
Story characters typically have those stacked in their favor
 
Ah, I will take a look at that.
 
BUT!!!! Higher tier generics can even the field or surpass them
That probably won't happen during the main game, though
 
6:01 PM
I'm more curious about, say, my level 40 Ninja with the highest tier sword I can buy having 350 attack, and my level 30 Fighter with the same tier axe having 850 attack.
 
user15026
@GodEmperorDune Pretty sure it's this: microsoft.com/en-ca/store/apps/microsoft-minesweeper/…
 
In Disgaea 1 you could get to the maximum tier of the Majin class which had 200% proficiency with every stat I think
They were... kinda good.
 
That sounds strong.
I also haven't bothered much with the item world yet because I figure all the items I have at the moment will be irrelevant soon enough.
 
Item world is weird.
 
@twobugs I did the tutorial for it and haven't touched it since.
Chara world I've done a few times, mostly to increase people's movement.
 
6:04 PM
Chara world isn't even in the ones I've played
 
@AshleyNunn cool, thanks
 
> Duck sized horse on horse sized duck
 
That reminds me, there are Duck people in Suikoden who are really cool
 
Guys. I'm a mod now on BCG
 
6:06 PM
big card game?
 
@murgatroid99 took you long enough :P
 
@murgatroid99 I don't see a diamond.
 
but congrats
 
(in chat)
 
@StrixVaria try refreshing
 
6:07 PM
Oh, nice.
 
@StrixVaria shouldiblamecaching
 
user15026
I see him blue
 
Congrats!
 
Use this diamond responsibly!
Do not diamond inadequately like @badp
 
The bookstore is having people play dumb games to skip the buyback line
 
6:11 PM
@Unionhawk What do you mean?
 
oh god, they keep making ponies and now she showed a friendship is magic text :/ this is something for @PrivatePansy
 
Iunno, dumb games are being played
 
user20683

@GodEmperorDune it's in the Windows store thing
I dunno
 
6:16 PM
@SaintWacko You have to play modded minecraft #haha #arqadejokes
 
@twobugs Modded minecraft is wonderful
How dare you
 
I'm just a scamp who likes to make all the funny jokes

Q: What's the range on Mercy's Resurrect?

TroyenMercy's ultimate ability allows her to revive dead teammates, but I've noticed it definitely has a range restriction. How close do I need to be to a corpse before Resurrect will work on it?

 
Alright! My out of pocket is covered for my books
 
6:22 PM
Kasich made a Star Wars video calling himself the "only hope". Then he immediately dropped out
 
@twobugs Yikes
 
Story bundles? @AshleyNunn Are these book bundles?
 
He probably watched the video
 
@twobugs probably filmed it a while ago
 
Most likely. The timing is still funny.
 
user15026
6:24 PM
@MadMAxJr Yep, storybundle is like humble book bundles but usually more indie books
 
and there goes all my moneys. thanks @AshleyNunn
 
user15026
@twobugs So now Trump is literally the only one left?
 
@AshleyNunn yep
 
@AshleyNunn YEPPPPPP
 
user15026
6:26 PM
Also, the books in storybundles are DRM free, which is a nice thing :)
 
@WorldEngineer you can save 9 cents. so amaze much wow
 
AHHHHH KERNEL PANICS EVERYONE PANIC!!!

Q: Fallout 4 difficulty question

Michael GordonIf I weaken a legendary enemy on normal, then right before I kill it switch to survival; will I get a better legend drop?

 
@AshleyNunn reading about the boss fight books on the storybundle site makes me feel old because i never thought of those games as "old games"
like i remember when shadow of the colossus came out and it doesn't seem that long ago
 
6:37 PM
Chrono Trigger is 21 years old.
 
and they are doing one on katamari damacy. How is katamari damacy 12 years old already?
 
Because the world continues to turn.
 
And the king's kid hasn't rolled us into the sun yet!
 
@Unionhawk See I used to imagine you more as The Punisher, but this is more accurate
 
user15026
6:39 PM
@GodEmperorDune I don't often feel old but seeing stuff like that makes me feel positively ancient
 
@twobugs well at least we can agree that @badp is heath ledger joker
 
That would mean he only had 20 minutes of screentime
 
@twobugs did he really only have that much screentime?
 
It's always concerning when the tool doesn't look like the images from the documentation

Q: Is it safe to eat poisoned animals?

StudokuAfter a toxic fallout event, most of the animals in the area died. Is it safe to butcher and eat them? Will this poison my colonists?

 
6:43 PM
@GodEmperorDune Yeah, he just had a very dominant onscreen presence
 
@GodEmperorDune jack Nicholson joker
 
@Unionhawk not creepy enough
 
@StrixVaria Wait, The Onion is supposed to be fake news, not real news.
 
@MBraedley ikr
 
Again, I am so, so sorry. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/539989277653078016
 
6:50 PM
@GodEmperorDune @badp isn't creepy, just balls-out insane.
 
@Yuuki creepy was the wrong word. perhaps disconcerting is better
 
@TimStone u dun goofd
 
.@realDonaldTrump I dream of a post apocalypse wasteland where the young feed on the old.
 
The biggest trolling backfire of all time :P
 
6:53 PM
so that is the floor plan of my office i work in
 
@Dragonrage love the cropping
 
im at the red x and the people in the office with the green x are very noisy and almost always on phone conferences
so i close the blue door to help block out the noise
but other people in the office go through the door and leave it open
and it gets noisy again
so i have to go close the door again
:(
 
I'm going to flag that image for offensively bad cropping
 
@twobugs its actually accurate, because of the undrawn offices next to us
 
@twobugs Fixed.
 
6:55 PM
@Yuuki thats the wrong part of the office
 
@Dragonrage WHOOSH
 
ur terrible person
 
"Just download this quick and easy tool in order to run this file type"
 
@Yuuki zoom and enhance, section 23
 
> Tool require several more tools to compile
 
6:56 PM
Notice how I purposely cut off the lower-left corner as well.
 
@GodEmperorDune double'd sarcasm doesnt translate well into written text
 
One of my coworkers is named Michael but he's never seen AD
 
@Dragonrage p'raps you are DOING IT WRONG
 
no, no thats @Wipqozn
 
Is p'raps what all the old folk say nowadays?
 
6:58 PM
Hah

its hard to listen to my music and concentrate on my work when i have to listen to people talking on the phone very loudly
 
So I download the required tools for this tool
Those fail to build because I need more tools!
 
@twobugs That doesn't sound suspicious at all.
 
@twobugs Just download the internet already.
How do you not have all these super useful tools not instyalled anyway?
 
@twobugs get off m'lawn, whippersnapper!
 
7:01 PM
also occasionally i have to ask another more experienced developer for some help on some stuff, and he always messes up my layout of windows and stuff :(
like instead of minimizing or tabbing to another window, he shrinks it and then drags it out of the way to click on the other window
:(
 
@Yuuki Well my options are limited here
It's all GNU stuff but this laptop doesn't have a lot of basic utilities
 
@TimStone Nice
 
@TimStone the music too
@twobugs linux?
 
No, Windows. I need to get JAM running to rebuild some of this stuff but I don't have Perforce for real JAM and it's been downhill from there
 
7:06 PM
They subtract 888,888.88 from your bank account because apparently that's the only way to tell the system "HOLD UP, STOP THE BLEEDING"
omfg BofA
 
BofA has always been really crappy
But that's amazing

Q: Why are there no missions available after completing maude and mr Philips?

LlamaDuckIs there a reason that I'm not seeing nervous Ron anywhere? I really want to do the story but the only save I have before mr Phillips is franklin and Lamar so I don't want to go back there. Please help!!!

 
Whatever I'm just using normal JAM and not being a hipster

Q: How to add Plugins to a server thats already gone live.

HyperactivebratHello all i have a small ftb server and i have had it up and running for a good month or so and dedicated players, but most would like to see the essentials and other plugins added due to lag issues and other things. So i was wondering if there was a way to get that without damaging their player ...

 
I blame @SaintWacko for me probably going to do his mic headset suggestion
 
@Wipqozn Yessss
What headphones are you looking at?
 
I get no credit for suggesting it first :(
 
and then I'll be like "This was a terrible idea" when I stop using them in 2 months due to being bored of Overwatch, and then @Sterno will laugh laugh
@SaintWacko Any suggestions?
 
fair enough though, I didn't try to push that option as much as @SaintWacko did :P
@Wipqozn the great thing about that is that you will still have a good pair of headphones and the mic is detachable
 
7:34 PM
@Wipqozn I have a pair of AKG K240 MKII heaphones that sound great, and work really well with the modmic
 
@Chippies He rolled higher on his persuasion check
I also learned can't retur headphones I buy in the store, so like, mine as well online
 
@Wipqozn its not my fault amazon.ca is double the price of amazon.com
 
@GodEmperorDune I know. I blame @Unionhawk.
@SaintWacko these ones?
 
Cannot wait for our clients to buy new computers.
 
@TimStone a psyduck irl.
also the ACH system was developed for paper checks, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day
and the idea was the the banks are responsible for doing the verification on either end
 
7:49 PM
@Wipqozn Yeah
See, the right side has that nice flat bit on the earcup which is perfect for the modmic
 
Now you guys are making me second guess my headset choice
 
@twobugs As well you should be
 
Meh, my Corsair VOID has been fine aside from not working so great with web based discord (which is crappy anyway)
 
Ah, corsair makes good stuff
 
@twobugs I know. @SaintWacko is a mosnter. Also @Sterno.
I always have trouble buying headphones
 
7:51 PM
I was told my purchase was "ridiculous" :(
 
I'm just a part time monster.
 
@Wipqozn I use Head-fi to make my headphones/earphones choices
 
Hey people, anyone know a good way of accessing a lappy freefall sensor for triggering audio?
 
Hopefully this one will be more interesting.
 
7:53 PM
I want my lappy to start screaming when it's dropped
 
@Yuuki I haven't played Automaton or whatever despite having the Season pass... is it just boring?
 
I haven't finished the main questline, but it seems fairly boring-ish and short so far.
It's no Old World Blues.
 
338
 
Fallout 4 just didn't hold my interest too long. I should probably give it more of a chance
 
@agent86 oh you're back
I totally (didn't) miss you!
 
7:56 PM
@Wipqozn indeed. I have a pair of hyperx cloud ii's that I love to death
kingston is sending me the updated "revolver x" model soonish for review.
I don't modmic, but I considered it. the mic on the cloud ii comes off, and the outer shell of the set is smooth, so I think they'd work well together
 
@Wipqozn yeppers.
 
I'm not committed to mod mic
That's all because of @SaintWacko
The monster
 
@Wipqozn urmom is a mod mic
cc @Wipqozn on that burn
 
all of the recordings on our youtube channel use the cloud ii's mic. eb's mic is via the interwebs and won't sound as good, but you can get a good idea of the quality by listening to my sonorous voice
stupidly comfortable, too. I used to swear by sennheisers but I'm very unimpressed by my latest pair of them, and they're now more expensive than the hyperx set :/
 
8:01 PM
that sounds like so much gosh darn work
 
haha, I hear the quality is really good though
 
@agent86 Link to a good video for testing the sound quality?
err mic quality?
 
if I was going to upgrade, I'd do a desktop mic though. that seems to be what the streamers swear by
 
@agent86 Wow, that looks really nice
 
Quality of my corsair seems good, but it has more mic gain than I'm used to
 
8:02 PM
@Wipqozn you don't have my channel bookmarked?!?
 
@agent86 I'm subscribed, but not bookmarked
 
@agent86 For streaming, maybe, but for just voice chat the modmic is supposed to be much better
 
@SaintWacko yeah, I usually use it for streaming and not as much voice chat.
 
@AshleyNunn Yes, yes you would.
 
@agent86 Man, can you do me a favour and look older so you better match up to my headcannon?
 
8:04 PM
@Wipqozn What? You peel the backing off and stick it on!
@Wipqozn Whoa, no kidding
 
@Wipqozn what do I look like in your headcannon? do I have a beard or something?
 
@SaintWacko and rub it around and let it sit for an hour
3
@agent86 No, but you look older
 
@Wipqozn Eh
I don't think I did that
Besides, just do it before you go to bed and let it sit overnight
 
@Wipqozn how do I older?
I don't even
 
8:05 PM
@agent86 You just did. Like I had no idea what you looked like, but I assumed you looked older.
 
@GodEmperorDune Facebook verified her unprovoked and then she changed her name to "A Literal Psyduck" and they banned her. Good ol' Facebook
 
@Wipqozn I agree wholeheartedly with this
 
You look like somene in your 20s, but I thought you would look late 30s
 
@TimStone yeah facebook was better when they didn't patrol names
 
@Wipqozn how old does EB look? we're about... 6 months apart in terms of birthday I think
 
8:06 PM
Dark Souls 3, Slime Rancher, or "don't get a game, @Yuuki, you're an idiot"?
 
and I'm mid 30's thankyouverymuch
 
Slime Rancher has a long ways to go before being a decent game experience.
 
Get back into Hearthstone @Yuuki!
 
@agent86 More than 6 months older than you
 
@agent86 yay, someone else older than me
 
8:06 PM
They show promise and regular feature updates, but it needs more.
 
hey yall
 
@twobugs Hahahano.
 
but unfortunately looks younger than me
 
user15026
@John I'm so confused right now
 
CCGs are now definitively not my thing.
 
8:07 PM
@AshleyNunn I tried to follow this this reply chain and I'm really confused, too
 
@MBraedley weeeeeird.
 
@Yuuki what about CCCP's, comrade?
 
user15026
@twobugs Well I am glad I am not alone.
 
@GodEmperorDune Yeah, suggestions to get rid of it have been met with hollow excuses though, like the "OMG but fraud!" thing. Doesn't help that EPN exists as a private company either, I imagine. The UK used to have something similar but enough people were bothered that transfers are instantaneous now, even on holidays!
 
this is one of those classic Steam moments
 
8:08 PM
I feel like we talked about my age last time this subject came up
 
Meanwhile we're sitting here twiddling our thumbs. USA! USA!
 
"wait I have this game?"
 
failed mah driving test
on the manuver I do the best -_-
 
@agent86 that happened like in 1942
 
@djsmiley2k :(
@djsmiley2k Happens to the best of us
 
8:09 PM
I always failed the Michael Bay Explosion part of the driving test too.
 
@badp the capcom game?
 
yah
i knew i'd screwd up when i did it, rest of the test wnet well tho
 
@agent86 they made a capcom game out of your age, yes
 
@TimStone you underestimate how much infrastructure is built up around the ACH system.
 
there was a lot of death in it
 
8:10 PM
@badp at least it was fun. more fun than being this old.
 
@GodEmperorDune More like lament :P
 
DECISION MADE
 
@Wipqozn ... to stop sucking?
 
THanks @agent86, @StrixVaria, and sort of @SaintWacko.
 
@TimStone fair enough
 
8:10 PM
@agent86 some people say life only really starts at $($age + 1) years old
 
I'll go with these hyperx ones
 
all those AS400s will never be replaced
 
@Wipqozn I didn't help you and I WONT EVER HELP YOU, nyah
 
we have AS400 at work
 
@Wipqozn Okay, I can't be too upset with that. I hear really good things about them
 
8:11 PM
I don't 'yet' support it,. as no training
 
@agent86 sometimes, not helping is the most helpful thing you could possibly do
in other words, I think you have just been owned.
 
@Wipqozn noice. you will not be disappointed. or you might, I don't know. maybe you have high expectations. I find that unlikely, though
 
@djsmiley2k lol, there is no training for the horror you will experience
 
@agent86 early 30s or late 20s. You look like you could be in university. Did you discover the fountain of youth?
 
@badp pwn3d l33t d00d rekt!
 
8:11 PM
I still think a modmic and a pair of good headphones are better, but if you want something easy, that's a good way to go
 
you shall now suffer for this ownage by being subject to a forced browser refresh
 
Hey it's @agent86, I only just realised
 
at some point while you are typing a very long message
 
@Wipqozn I have the "wolverine" gene. I heal rapidly and don't age. I'll be laughing while standing over your grave.
 
In other financial news I paid some of my taxes a day late and the IRS considers a day late a month late, so I precomputed the penalty and added it to the amount I sent in. They've naturally sent me that amount back. If a bill shows up in two or three weeks I'm going to kick someone.
 
8:12 PM
@Wipqozn YOU;RE WELCOME
 
@SaintWacko Yeah. Look around online, good opinions, including a highly upvoted posts where someone said it's the only gaming headset actually worth the money, where you would consider buying it (at a good deal) over what you sugested (mic + headphones)
 
@fredley still the only one. 338
 
@Wipqozn Right
 
@agent86 11037 amirite
 
@TimStone yep they will definitely send you a bill in 6-8 weeks
 
8:13 PM
@SaintWacko and just so happens there's a good deal on amazon sooo yeah. Next time I might do waht you suggest, because I considered that last time too.
 
Instead of wolverine claws though he just has cheap ink pens.
 
Oh wow, they're letting moderators take breaks now, no more 24/7 on-call madness
 
@badp nope, precisely 338
 
Although I've heard some people say the Cloud 1 headset is better
Can't remember exactly why
 
@fredley no you are misinformed, get back to work
 
8:14 PM
@SaintWacko they're basically the same, the cloud ii adds surround sound support, iirc.
 
Hmm. I've pondered a Yeti mic.
 
@fredley that's what they want you to think
 
that mod abuse isn't going to do itself!
 
the cloud revolver is coming out next week, then they'll follow that with the revolver x a few months later w/surround support
 
@agent86 thought the same. Look at what that brought to him
 
8:14 PM
Also @murgatroid99 is the latest Bridge member to take the blue, congrats @murgatroid99!
 
@agent86 That may have been it, people saying that the surround sound wasn't great on it
 
I think the surround support is actually in the USB sound card it is bundled with, which has the inline mute, volume, mic, surround buttons
 
user15026
Y'all are talkative this afternoon :P
 
@AshleyNunn is back, everyone shush!
 
@fredley huh, what site?

@MBraedley timestamp is 8:54:56
 
@agent86 Okay I just bought the headphones. now tell me what you really think of them? Is this a trick?
 
@Wipqozn hahaha.gif
 
@Wipqozn they're awesome and I love them. hyperx is my jam. I would say that even if they hadn't given me stuff. I did the research and bought that exact pair.
 
@MBraedley Fuck windows 10
 
I like win10 for the xbox integration. the rest I don't give a flip about
 
8:21 PM
@agent86 Excellent
 
with twitch chat
 
Call it Windows X, then it sounds like a windshield fluid
 
@Wipqozn I think they come with spare ear cups, a carrying case, the mic comes off and you can plug it with a bit of rubber they include... it's pretty primo for the price, and good quality for a gaming headset.

Q: Why is my minecraft crashing whenever I join a server?

Laura Campbellhttp://prntscr.com/b0ayem if you look at that link you can see what it says when it boots me off, can someone please tell me why?

 
@badp Already, that same contingent that watches Formula 1 and other motorsport can be tempted over to watching pro gaming instead ("I only watch it for the crashes")
 
8:23 PM
I upgraded to W10 for the Xbox One controller support
Which they completely dropped from 7 as far as I can tell
 
@fredley I watch it to watch things fail in a more general sense
 
@badp I'm not sure if it would have been better if his streaming box had updated instead.
 
@MBraedley depends on the kind of match he was playing
 
@MBraedley oh so they have a box that streams separately from the box that plays the game?
 
annnd done, order palced
 
8:25 PM
@GodEmperorDune That's why his overlays (and the stream for that matter) stayed live
 
I lied when I said I ordered it before! LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIED
 
@MBraedley yeah i was wondering how he did that
i thought it was some VM hacks
 
@StackExchange MOD ABUSE
 
Oh wow, room ownership change messages, I remember them
 
8:26 PM
It can help with game performance, since the GPU isn't rendering video while also rendering the game.
 
So how long do you have to be here to be made a room owner?
 
I also pickedu p a doomtown pack I needed. Just need one more.
 
@Wipqozn gasp
 
@fredley maybe i should post on meta.se, this one is missing the word "wipqozn"
 
@SaintWacko I wonder that every day as well.
 
8:27 PM
@GodEmperorDune bug report: room ownership change did not remove wipqozn
 
@GodEmperorDune Is that when you have too many mods installed in skyrim and it has to go into rehab?
 
@fredley should we fix the glitch?
though
nah
 
@StackExchange I honestly don't remember losing that, or what it even means, or why I'd want to do it. but hey, stuff!
 
I don't flip @Wipqozn's bit if he doesn't deserve it
 
3 mins ago, by Wipqozn
I lied when I said I ordered it before! LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIED
 
8:28 PM
he always deserves a good bit flipping.
 
[bit flipping intensifies]
 
@GodEmperorDune are you saying being 2gut4u is a bit-flippable offense?
 
Someday I'll be a room owner
 
Okay, home time.
 
forever a gnome
Dangit internet! Stop being one step ahead of my jokes!
 
8:31 PM
@badp @Wipqozn is more like 2gut4u2: tokyo drift
