12:05 AM
Quick, someone be my friend and hug me
On portal 2 for 360...
 
@Ktash Context is important!
 
FAE
@Ktash Aw. I was going to offer until you specified.
 
@FAE Heh, well I will take friendships and hugs almost anytime ;)
but in this particular instance, I'm also achievement hunting
 
Damn. Hit the Butcher's enrage timer.
 
My last achievement I need to get is the Friends List With Benefits achievement
 
12:09 AM
Oooh, my second legendary. Now for the reveal...
Oh, of course. My Demon Hunter totally wanted a Barbarian-only belt.
 
Ooh, Wizard gloves.
 
FAE
@Ktash hugs anyway!

Q: How could i get a lot of gold in World of Warcraft?

VodahminIm a level 28 Night Elf and really want more gold so that i can buy a Mount and training (300g). Please help me out if you know a quick way to get a ton of money.

 
@FAE Well, my theory was that I'd put it in a basement room which is currently storage but I hope to turn into a rec room for when the kid gets older. I already had a 42" TV. So there it will sit in the box for a year or two :P
 
FAE
@Sterno Haha, gotcha
 
12:14 AM
@FAE Woohoo, I have a friend \o/
 
FAE
\o/
 
@fbueckert Pssh, real men stand in the fire and keep fighting!
 
@Sterno I did! Got him to 20K. And I died.
 
@fbueckert :(
 
Then killed him on the next attempt.
Wow, 600+ DPS weapons with life on hit are expensive
 
12:17 AM
@fbueckert How much? I was pretty happy with the one I got yesterday for 500k
150 str, 240 dex, and 120 vit on it. So nice!
 
@Sterno Roughly triple that
@Sterno I need something like that.
 
Sad part is prices are down relative to a few days ago
Since a lot of people are in act 3 now
(for non life-on-hit weapons)
 
Whoa! You can slide through grates on Arkham City!
 
Well, found a spear with high 500+ DPS.
And 300 Dex and 150 Vit.
For 300K. Mine!
And now I have over 20K health! Woo!

Q: What armor spell should I use with my Wizard?

NicoI'm currently using Energy Armor with Force Armor, but are there any armor spells that are actually better than this one?

 
Huh, I just got a rare shield with "Increase damage against Elites by 5%". Didn't even know that was a thing.
 
@TimStone I've seen it in descriptions of legendaries before
doesn't seem that useful, tbh. I'd rather have 5% more attack against ALL THE THINGS
 
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I just stuck it on my Templar, heh.

Q: Tool in WoW to find a compatible guild based on a profile

Q: Will Split trigger Prodigy for each Magic Missile fired?

BrantOn a similar vein as this question about Electrocute, will the three Magic Missiles fired by the Split rune trigger the effects of Prodigy for each of the missiles that hits an enemy, or only once per cast?

 
1:26 AM
@agent86 Yeah, but you can't get an affix twice.
The thing about Diablo is that items are totally random, so you probably won't get the ideal stat spread, you just want to get as close as possible.
 
1:38 AM
I really want to find an answer to post this on
Also, everyone going to be ready for the influx of speculative questions during E3?

1:53 AM
@Ktash Is that a usual problem?
 
@AshleyNunn Haven't been here a full year yet, but I would guess...
 
user15026
@Ktash Yeah, I haven't either, so I was curious
 
Well, I guess as long as their not Diablo 3 questions, maybe I have a chance of answering something on here again
 
user15026
Yeaaaah, I am in the same boat XD
 
@AshleyNunn You can always ask more Kingdom Hearts questions ;)

Q: How many power nodes are there in Dead Space?

Nate KoppenhaverPower nodes seem to be rare to come by, with usually only one or less in a chapter. Does anybody know many total power nodes there are in the game?

 
@AshleyNunn Posted a KH question
about the series as a whole, but a KH question none-the-less
 
I don't think anything is quite so good at making me want to stop playing D3 for a while as reaching act II on a new difficulty.
 
2:10 AM
"I knew that I sharpened my weapon this morning for a reason" And what reason was that? Your nerfed damage can't kill anything, so that can't be it.
 
@TimStone it's a euphemism, obviously.
 
Let's hope the Enchantress sleeps with her tent door closed, then.
 
The Scoundrel is a sleaze, but at least he's not fucking creepy.
 
Yay, I can crit for 20K now!
 
2:34 AM
Made it to level 47 today. Thank god for no more heralds of pestilence.
 
@RavenDreamer Until the next difficulty.
 
I'm sitting in a room with 4 hard drives (1tb, 1tb, 500 gb, 120gb-ssd), a 2 gb flash drive, a 4 gb flash drive, and an 8 gb flash drive.
 
It makes me feel old to think that that flash drive for $37 is bigger than the first hard drive I ever bought :/

Q: What do we know about the keyblade war?

KtashI love KH, but as has been pointed out before, it adds a lot of lore to it. The video linked in the article seemed to know more about the Keyblade War than I thought was known. The only thing I know about it at this point is that it was a war between Keyblade wielders and was sort of a Light-vs-D...

Q: Minecraft Port Fowarding Issues and Errors

parioscreationsI have been looking across the internet for an answer to this problem but, alas, there is none. So I've come here. I am currently trying to make a new Minecraft server on my laptop. My router is hooked wirelessly to my computer upstairs. I have followed the directions that have been said by many...

 
2:38 AM
@RavenDreamer Heh, I have 2 internals, 1 external, and like 2 flash drives in my room
well, minus the ones I have actually installed
 
Ah, see, I was counting installed ones.
 
I have 3 HDDs installed, totalling 4TB
 
Could you take it apart and install it as a low cost SSD?
 
@YiJiang Probably not without some tinkering, but maybe
Also, a little small in (physical) size to be able to put it somewhere useful
 
What, you actually want it bigger?
Placebo bands
 
2:42 AM
No, but it probably would be awkward to install it somewhere in your computer at that size
 
@YiJiang Ooooh, you mean the flash drive. Gotcha. Was very confused.
 
@Ktash Some motherboards these days come with an internal USB port. Could this be used for that?
 
I was thinking, "why would taking apart a magnetic drive turn it into a low cost SSD?"
 
Also, someone posted the disk benchmark for the usb stick on the amazon page lol
@YiJiang Mmm, it might be a bit big if the port ends up next to a fan (it's not a short stick), but probably
Otherwise you'd probably have to hang the drive off where ever its connected lol
 
@YiJiang I have been strongly considering grabbing an SD card for that purpose.
(cheapo SSD that is.)
 
2:46 AM
I am a newly graduated collegeperson looking for a permanent apartment; any suggestions on how much I should be paying (% wise) on leasing an apartment?
 
@RavenDreamer Where do you live?
City, that is
 
30% of monthly take home
 
@Ktash Raleigh, NC
 
30% of your monthly wages is a good starting point for figuring out your budget.
 
@RavenDreamer I agree with @LessPopMoreFizz, 30% is a good starting point. It only really mattered where you live for expensive places like NYC or Silicon Valley or something
 
2:50 AM
I wish I had a better grasp of what taxes I'll be paying. I just started on Friday, so all I have to go by is my annual income divided by 12. (Which I know is too high, because taxes)
 
Maybe more, maybe less depending on how much you're planning on saving
... Depends on your tax bracket
If I was good at Excel I would be able to tell you how to calculate it
first hit on Google
Was fairly accurate for me
plus or minus a couple hundred a month (which may be benefits coming out anyway)
 
Does the chat ping sound not play in firefox?
 
@RavenDreamer It should
Does for me
 
Weird.
Thanks for that calculator, Ktash.
 
... it depresses me to look at prices for apartments elsewhere in the country :/
 
2:55 AM
@ktash whizz at?
Whyzzat
Stupid phone.
 
@RavenDreamer NP. Where you going to be working, if you don't mind me asking?
@LessPop_MoreFizz lol, Seattle prices are not cheap
Better than Silicon valley though, so that makes me happy
at least I don't work there
 
I live in NY. I know what my ex-gf is paying to live in Capitol Hill in Seattle. Cry me a fucking river.
 
Oh, NY is worse as well
yeah, no, I know. But when I hear my sister talking about getting a 2 bedroom apartment for $600 a month, I die a little inside
 
@Ktash I pay less than that for my mortgage.
 
2:58 AM
@Ktash That's probably her share, no? So 1,200 for the whole place
 
@RavenDreamer No, that's total...
 
600/ mo might get you a half a studio here.
 
@fbueckert ...
Not cool bro
 
In the hood.
 
@Ktash Sorry, dude.
 
2:59 AM
@Ktash I couldn't find a one bedroom apartment for that cheap, here, today.
 
Did I mention I rent out rooms, too?
 
All right. I need to get to bed early. Adios.
 
$600 a month here would get you 1 room in a house in the "ghetto" in the basement with some creepy old guy living upstairs... if you're so lucky
@fbueckert heh, it's all good. Just a little depressing. A cheap house in Seattle is around 350k-400k in certain neighborhoods
@RavenDreamer Night. Also, congrats :)
 
@Ktash Yuck
I'd never be able to afford that on my current salary.

3:04 AM
@fbueckert Yeah, pretty much. I've started saving for one now, with the hope that I'll eventually be able to afford one lol
So, I'm retagging a question with the tag and considering removing it. Any objections?
 
Wow, 13K DPS basically trivializes Act 1.
 
@fbueckert I'm headed that way since I hit level 60 today
12191dps
@Ktash Where is this?
 
3:20 AM
@OrigamiRobot Pullman, WA
 
@Ktash That's pretty cheap for a 2 bedroom
 
@OrigamiRobot Yeah, that's dirt cheap. I want those prices
To be fair though, no one wants to live there, so it's a trade off kind of thing
 
@Ktash I had a crappy 2 bedroom with @IanPugsley 2 years ago that was like $750/month
It was pretty old.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm in 2 bedroom now that's what I consider cheap and it's ~$1000/month
 
@Ktash We rented a 3 bedroom house with a million extra space for that :P
THe landlord was awful, though
 
3:26 AM
Ours is not in the best neighborhood
My roommate got asked one day on his way home if he wanted to buy some crack
 
I think I could probably find some where I am now if I wanted.
 
We've got some entrepreneurs in the area who realize they should advertize their product
 
@OrigamiRobot crack? robots are too classy for crack, esp origami ones
 
@Krazer I said if I wanted.
 
@OrigamiRobot snickerdoodles are much better imo
you never just have one.
 
3:36 AM
 
I'm unsure how to handle a situation. This answer is essentially a copy of the answer that was posted before and moreover an inaccurate copy. As described in the comments, the user posted said answer because they didn't like the phrasing in the existing answer. I have no issue rephrasing, but I think flagging the answer is not going to go anywhere. What should I do?
 
@skovacs1 Downvote.
 
Yeah, what the robot said.
Downvote == not useful. If he has an issue with the phrasing, he should edit your answer.
 
3:52 AM
Holy crap, attack speed is worth a lot.
 
@fbueckert That's because it increases damage a lot!
 
@OrigamiRobot That pair of gloves I'm using is worth an easy 2 million.
 
1.85 attacks per second
 
@Brant Even a comment or a suggestion for improvement would be appreciated. I can take it from there. It's just that they seem to have gone through several of my questions and done the same. I believe based on their comments elsewhere that it likely has less to do with issues with the phrasing and more to do with issues with the idea of answering as you ask so I doubt this will improve the situation.

@YiJiang You know how protesters are complaining about the 1%? He's the 1% of the 1%
He's greedy and keeping all that undeserved rep for himself!
 
@Sterno Actually, given the long tail rep distribution on SE sites I'd say that anybody with a few thousand reps would be the 1% on a site like this
What would be impressive is if he had 1% of the aggregate rep
 
241 users have 1000+ rep out of ~20,000 total.
 
So yup, we are the 1%. Nice.
 
@Brant Neat!

user15026
@YiJiang Yeah, I would love an answer to this, but so few people play it or care, and there isn't a lot of information out there. :(
 
Alternatively, you can stick a 500 dollar bounty, and I'll prompt go out and buy an iPod Touch then play the game for three days straight to find you the answer :P

@AshleyNunn man, I wonder how many they sell at that tier, or what level of addicted you'd have to be to a F2P game to drop $100 on it
probably somewhere there's some spoiled rich kid who just adores smurfs or something
 
user15026
@agent86 Probably. Apparently a lot of kids buy them on accident because they dont realize it is legit money
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, but iOS now has proper parental control I heard, so there really is no excuse
 
user15026
@YiJiang Yeah, it does. But you know how some people can be - no matter if they have the option to shut that sort of thing down, you are always going to get people complaining about it

@AshleyNunn I read once a story about a guy whose dog purchased like $100 in MS points or something, with a lucky mashing of the controller. dunno if it was legit or not...

@agent86 That strikes me as a little farfetched
 
@agent86 I'm going to guess not.
 
Hahaha
 
user15026
but what do I know, I am more of a cat person
 
2:39 PM
@agent86 I'd believe it. It's unlikely, but not unthinkable or impossible if the fellow had his credit card information in there set to auto-complete. I haven't purchased MS points in a while - don't they or shouldn't they make you re-enter your card's security code?
 
@skovacs1 they don't require you to enter credit card info. from the off state, it's more button presses and exact movement than I think could be realistically generated randomly, but I think it's at least slightly plausible.
 
They barely make you confirm your purchase, let alone ask for actual input...so I could see it, even if it's quite unlikely...certainly not impossible.

@agent86 That was in 2009. I can't recall what the dashboard was like nor do I know the version that the person was using, but maybe there were fewer steps then?
 
3:05 PM
I am the .06%!
 
@skovacs1 I think that was the NXE at that point (ie, post-"blades" interface, but prior to the current... whatever this is... interface) and I think the steps to buy MS points are pretty similar. both times it was an option on the xbox menu, if I recall.
 
@RavenDreamer eh?
 
@IanPugsley he's going by his "in the top X% this <time period>" score
 
@agent86 ah
 
@agent86 I believe it's always been under settings/account management or when you go to make a purchase on marketplace. I'm just suggesting that those were more accessible then. Right now, through settings, you have to go right all the way (in home or the dashboard) then down some, then A to select. From there, you have to go down some and then A to select a few times. With different order to the entries, the down or right steps could be unnecessary.
 
3:15 PM
@skovacs1 yeah, beats me :P
I buy points through the dashboard once in a never
usually I buy the cards at a discount and then enter the codes via xbox.com (cause screw trying to use the controller as a keyboard!)

Q: Harvest or Rescue little sisters in Bioshock 2?

edemI just tested it out and it seems that if you harvest a little sister you get 160 adam out of her. If you use her to harvest 2 bodies you get 40-40 each plus you get 80 more when you rescue her at a vent. So it seems that it changed slightly from bioshock 1 where you got less if you rescued the l...

C-dizzleHow long does it take for your follower to respawn? Is there any possibilty of your follower NOT respawning? And is there a way to resurrect your follower faster?

 
@Lazers Someone should rewrite that title to be less shit.
I can think of one way, but would put the spoilers in the title. I'd rather avoid that if someone who is familiar with the game can make a good spoiler-free title.

@Wipqozn do you use more than one steam account?
