I'm trying to complete The Harpy Contract outside of Vergen, and while I've slain enough harpies that the quest has updated to "use harpy traps! 0/7 nests", I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing with said harpy traps. How do I take out Harpy Nests?

Few days ago I watched Day9's team monobattles,... and that BOOSTED my own apm and everything else: I began do stuff quicker... Do you know, where can I find other videos of replays that are recorded DURING game and reflect all operations that player does: microing, macroing, moving map to 'hot...

I spent a long time writing the answer I found to a question that I asked and only after I hit submit, I got this: Oops! Your answer couldn't be submitted because: New users can't answer their own question for 8 hours. Please use comments, or edit your question instead. Besides that fact ...

Dungeon Raid explains that to earn the Armed and Dangerous achievement, you have to "upgrade an item to have 8 stats." What does "stats" mean? I'm confused exactly what I need to do to earn this trophy.

I remember I was able to browse things like my profile and others' profiles from the community tab in Steam. Lately, however, it seems that the community tab just shows me a page where I have to explicitly log-in with my Steam account name and password - even though I'm browsing from within the l...

Does collecting more loot slow down a dragon in Hoard? If so does the speed skill or carry skill offset this?

Does anyone have a break down of what is actually gained per skill point invested in Hoard? I'm particularly interested in return on investment for damage and speed.

Now that mushrooms can be farmed, what's the best pattern of mushrooms to make to grow them optimally? Are there any other conditions that affect growth (such as water/surrounding crops when growing wheat)?

Notch has changed the way fire behaves. It appears that previously unreachable blocks are now in danger of being set on fire! In particular, those that have no direct contact with the fire block itself: In this image, the firey block is surrounded by stone on all sides (other than the top), ye...

We have quite a lot questions about minecart boosters and water elevators, neither of which work anymore in patch 1.6. The community's consensus is currently: "add a disclaimer on them all"; as the person who suggested this, I'd like the community to reconsider this. When I suggested this, I fi...

Now that grass cannot be hoed for seeds and instead we must use tall grass: Added tall grass in some biomes, Seeds are now found in tall grass, using a hoe on the ground no longer works What are these 'some biomes'? And will said grass grow in existing biomes?

According to both Notch's Twitter (no link) and the wiki, maps have some kind of settable zoom: A zoom level, which will somehow be decided at the time the map is created. I have no idea how to set this. Anyone know?

This is somehow a continuation of my bug report Comment appears in the inbox, but not in the responses (with the exact same title, but the previous bug was fixed). Yesterday I got 4 comment @replies from Gilles in my inbox, all on the post How do comment @replies work? Some of those comments are...

My map is called map_0, which isn't that great. Can I change it?

My guys end up fighting the front lines while skeleton crossbow enemies pile up until they become undefeatable. How can I stop the enemy archers from living long enough to form an undefeatable platoon?

When I was a kid I stumbled upon the secret blue rupee room in Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past for the SNES. I was ridiculed at the time because I couldn't reproduce it. I remember in the dialog box that appears when you enter this room that it was placed there by someone called Chris Houlih...

When mining large areas continuously (e.g., metorite or hellstone), destroying a large section of wall, or leveling a forest my wimpy index finger starts to cry. Is there any way to switch the mining/bashing/chopping action on and have it continue until switched off?

I often have to travel to missions on the other side of the city, and driving back and forth is getting tedious, even with my full-throttle, one-way-ignoring, traffic-light-ignoring driving style. I tried taking the subway but it's not really helping - just getting through the station takes a whi...

I've been playing Terraria for a few hours. I've got the basics understood - I've built houses for NPCs, explored, mined resources, etc. At this point I've got a gold Broadsword and some Copper armor. I keep reading about cool stuff on the Terraria wiki, but nearly all of it comes with caveats...

I'm often encountering very strongly held opinions among games about the Vertical Sync (VSync) option present in nearly all modern 3D games. The option is supposed to synchronize the output of the game to the monitor refresh rate and thereby prevent tearing of the images. Some say it causes lag,...

Hello, im trying to install Spore on my Mac (MacBook Pro 13', Dual Core, Snow-Leopard). Im having a few problems... Not long ago a friend of mine gave me his spore copy and his spore key code to try and install the game. As it commanded me to type in the code, it appeared to be invalid so i went...

I had the good fortune two days ago of checking the site on a different computer, logged out from my account. Because of this, I noticed the link to the site blog right up there with review, chat, main, and faq. Hurray, 100% more official! However, when I logged in, the link simply vanished. Same...

The official wiki contains the following bit of advice regarding meteors: Note that if you have built a single-block bridge in the sky in search of Floating Islands it is possible for a meteorite to land on that bridge and you will end up getting only a small amount of Meteorite. It is sugges...

If you place water to completely flood the floor area around a monster spawner, will it prevent monsters from spawning? Or can monsters still spawn in water? The wiki says: It tries 4 times to place the mob at a random position in an 9 x 9 x 9 area, and gives up on placing that mob if it cann...

If you write some code on one line which is too long for the code block to display in one, it usually, if I remember correctly, would just add a scroll bar to the bottom. Seemingly this has changed as now the code block will still display the scroll bar, but will also add a lot of extra space bel...

I have been invited by stackoverflow for carreers 2.0 site due to my good answers/questions in java tag but when i click the link i got this error is this a server outage or something like that ?

I can get a membership and make a fresh new account if needed. 1) What stats / armor / weapons / spells are best for PKing? 2) Apart from the right stats and gear, what else is needed to get good at PKing?

With 99 range and 99 defence, approximately how many cannonballs would it take to go from 70-99 slayer if one used cannon alone except where it can't be used?

Since the last few releases have nerfed both water elevators and boat elevators, what is left standing as the fastest upward movement method? Ladders? Stairs? Are nerfed boat elevators still the fastest?

I'm remembering that in the first game there were quite a few women that Geralt could pursue. So far I've only found Triss as a romantic prospect in the second game. Are there any others?
