00:49 <Moongoodboy> Is anycreature else super stoked for the finale already?

00:49 <Moongoodboy> oh, /and/ we got the Tree of Harmony doing their thing

01:47 <PinkieShy> Just got done streaming GTA..

01:47 <PinkieShy> I turned off the xbox one, and about 2 minutes later.. It randomly does the xbox one jingle and turns on

01:48 <Ali> And then RRoDs

01:49 <PinkieShy> Plus before getting on the PC had to do some PC cable changing.. >_>

01:49 <PinkieShy> the Case fan in the back wasn't moving as you would expect..

01:50 <Ali> Well it sounded like it died the last time you mentioned it

01:50 <PinkieShy> Unplugged the molex adapter, and put directly on the motherboard on the pwm_fan header and everything is running good again..

01:50 <PinkieShy> Seems to be faster as well lol

01:50 <Ali> See what happens when you put things where they're supposed to be :P

01:50 <PinkieShy> the manual says pwm_fan can be used as sys_fan2 header.. so yea

01:51 <PinkieShy> Just one intake in on molex adapter and its going strong still.. Not gonna mess with that..

01:51 <PinkieShy> I could.. but then i would probably need a multi fan header thingy command thingy for all the fans..

01:59 <PinkieShy> Tried to play Pokemon Omega ruby today..

01:59 <PinkieShy> :(

01:59 <PinkieShy> The game cart is completely dead.. 3ds xl doesn't see it in the system

01:59 <PinkieShy> Tried animal crossing, mario, and pokemon Y in the system and it sees all those..

01:59 <PinkieShy> Just have to buy a new copy of omega ruby i guess..

01:59 <PinkieShy> Might not go for that though.. Probably do Alpha Sapphire.

01:59 <Ali> Probably not worth it

02:00 <Ali> ORAS was a meh remake

02:00 <PinkieShy> I wanna play the Hoenn game again lol

02:00 <Ali> The GIVE YOU a legendary pokemon

02:00 * Ali gives PinkieShy a copy of Pokemon Emerald

02:00 <PinkieShy> I have that lol

02:00 <PinkieShy> Along with a dead GBA copy of Ruby..

02:00 <PinkieShy> Just my luck that the more up to date version of Ruby also dies on me as well.

02:01 <Ali> Just trust me

02:01 <Ali> ORAS is kinda meh

02:01 <Ali> Mega Evolutions

02:01 <Ali> The stupid EXP share

02:01 <Ali> Its not as fun as it used to be

02:01 <PinkieShy> I have a ton of games for ds and 3ds..

02:01 <PinkieShy> Pokemon soul silver, Platinum, Y, omega ruby.

02:02 <PinkieShy> soul silver i got on release date of that game..

02:02 <PinkieShy> I remember being so excited and even looking up leaked music for that on yt

02:02 <Ali> HGSS was a good one

02:02 <Ali> Platinum was great

02:03 <Ali> X and Y can burn in a fire though

02:03 <PinkieShy> I always seem to pick to girl as a player in the games though.. The girl just so much more adorable :3

02:03 <Ali> Pretty much

02:03 <Ali> Just for me, Gen 6 was such a letdown

02:03 <Ali> With the stupid EXP share change and the Mega Evolutions

02:03 <PinkieShy> Pokemon Blue i still got to this day.

02:04 <Ali> And the 'rivals' are a bit to chummy chummy

02:04 <PinkieShy> That's where it all started for us in the states :)

02:04 <Ali> I still have my RBY and 2/3 have original packaging

02:04 <PinkieShy> Pokemon Green was the beginning for Japan.

02:04 *** Joins: Changeling_Nightmares (Surreal@Cutest.Floofy.Changeling.Batpone)

02:04 <Ali> Was it Red and Green or Blue and Green?

02:05 <PinkieShy> All the pokemon games I've had: Pokemon Blue, Silver, Ruby, Emerald, Platinum, Soul Silver, Y, OR, Col on gamecube, and XD Gale of darkness.

02:05 <PinkieShy> Those are 2 games Nintendo really needs to get to work at doing a remake.

02:06 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #1816 [ http://tinyurl.com/y2rqm4uq ]

02:06 <PinkieShy> gale of darkness.. I'm sure there is a ton of people that would love to have a shadow pokemon..

02:06 <Ali> I have all versions but Sun and Ultra Moon

02:06 <Ali> PinkieShy, do you know how upset I was when you purified Shadow Lugia and his color reverted?

02:06 <PinkieShy> Nope?

02:06 *** Changeling_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares

02:07 * Filly_Nightmares mewls at Ali

02:07 <PinkieShy> I remember i did that to Lugia and reset the gamecube and got the shadowness back though xD

02:07 <Ali> I was ticked

02:07 <Ali> He looked so cool with the shadow colors

02:07 <Ali> I still have my Pre release Shadow Lugia plushie from it too

02:07 <PinkieShy> Could you image though.. If Nintendo were to do a dark route with pokemon ever..

02:08 <PinkieShy> Make a game where you get to choose if you want a pokemon with a closed heart (You basically put it in a machine and turn it into a dark pokemon).. I doubt that will happen

02:08 <Ali> Yeah that's just gonna be stuck to those two games only

02:08 <PinkieShy> Chances of that happening are extremely unlikely.. But chances of a gale of darkness remake.. is more likely i bet.

02:08 <Ali> I'm doubting they'll make a sequal to that game

02:09 <Ali> With the main series coming to Switch, that's about all that was needed

02:09 <Ali> XD and Col were the first two mainstreamish pokemon games on the console

02:09 * PinkieShy trades Ali a Missingno

02:12 <PinkieShy> Moved some of the pokemon that i couldn't see around and some how accessed the games music files.. O.o

02:13 <PinkieShy> Activated like the pokemon heal sound and then a song that you don't hear in the game at all..

02:59 * Schism looks at an 11-minute TAS of Pokemon Yellow, with no save corruption.

03:02 <Schism> Ali: Twas Red and Green to start, and then Blue released later as a special edition.  (Ao, the word used for 'blue', also refers to a shade of green.  <.<)

03:02 * Ali noms Schism

03:03 * Schism squeaks

03:03 * DashedRainbows gets off Ali dejectedly

04:36 <Schism> Darnit.  I just learned that my city was almost named "Hydro City" back in 1916, and now I can't get Will Ferrell out of my head.

04:47 <PinkieShy> loo

04:47 <PinkieShy> *lool

04:47 <Schism> There were even worse choices.  One which wound up on the top 6 was "Huronto".

04:48 <PinkieShy> The city i live in was orginally named Kingston town.

04:48 <Schism> Public response was somewhere between 'Okay, you have GOT to be kidding me' and 'Are you people just throwing together letters out of a hat?'

04:48 <PinkieShy> They later renamed it to Conway..

04:49 <Schism> Kingston?  Eh, I've heard many townships in the UK were named that, or some other variant on 'Kings' Town'.  Though the doubling up is a bit peculiar.

04:50 <PinkieShy> The city i was born in was once named Charlestown.. But got changed to Charleston.

04:50 <Schism> Such shortenings are hardly uncommon.

04:51 <PinkieShy> Happy Last day of May!!! :D

04:51 <PinkieShy> officially almost 1am here :P

04:51 <PinkieShy> May 31st is here now for me.

04:52 <PinkieShy> Once June gets here.. The rest of the year will fly by so fast.. That before we know it.. 2019 will be rocking on out of here

04:52 * DashedRainbows flops on PinkieShy and boops his horn

04:52 * PinkieShy licks DashedRainbows

04:53 * DashedRainbows wags her tail

04:54 <Ali> Schism, you think that's dumb

04:54 <Ali> There's a city in Michigan called Hell

04:54 <Schism> I know, I know, and Intercourse, Pennsylvania.

04:54 <Ali> Only in america...

04:54 * Schism is in Canada.

04:54 <Ali> I know eh

04:55 <Ali> So hows the weather in America's top hat?

04:55 <PinkieShy> My Nephew apparently.. to a Dr Seuss backpack today and put it on his back himself..

04:56 * Ali shakes hoof at internet connection, 7MBs is too slow

04:56 <Schism> Ali: Well, tomorrow it's going to be a nice, cool 70F high.

04:56 <Schism> Today and tomorrow.

04:56 <Ali> Here in flyover land its stormy

04:57 <PinkieShy> Ali there is a man in the middle of the USA map ya know :P

04:57 <Schism> Yeah, the weather there is so rainy that crops are delayed, and are likely to result in price hikes for cereal, with knock-on effects for meat and animal products.

04:57 <Ali> Pretty much, just like '93 all over again

04:58 <PinkieShy> https://i.pinimg.com/originals/41/a6/79/41a67917482115fc5bc281baa75fb917.jpg << Man on the U.S. Map.

04:59 <Ali> More commonly known as flyover country

04:59 <Schism> Ali: There's an Eyebrow, Saskatchewan.

04:59 <Schism> Also, Bacon Cove in Newfoundland.

05:00 <Schism> In 1910, a town in Alberta was named 'Vulcan', after the god of volcanoes.  These days, there's a regular Star Trek convention there, which of course they've embraced happily.

05:37 <DerpyBot> *wigglewiggle*

05:37 <Finwe> *wigglewiggle*

05:37 * Ali yawns at Finwe, her PC shouldn't have taken 2 hours to download FO4

05:37 <DashedRainbows> wigglwiggle

05:38 <Finwe> Ali: Sounds like a problem with the hard drive or drive controller.

05:38 <Finwe> Unless you have mind-bogglingly slow connection to the Internet.

05:38 <Ali> A garbo 7MB/s

05:38 <Finwe> Mlles Ali and DashedRainbows, Mr Schism.

05:38 * Finwe doffs his hat.

05:39 <Finwe> That does not sound like 1 Gbit/s.

05:39 * DashedRainbows sniffs Finwe, fancy

05:39 *** Joins: SilverLining (Fall@Pony-sfg.9lm.228.37.IP)

05:39 * Ali flops over SilverLining

05:40 <Finwe> Steam usually gives you 50 MB/s, given that there are no connenction speed limitations.

05:40 <Finwe> On the other hoof, I really do not know how large FO4 actually is.

05:40 <SilverLining> Morning

05:40 <Finwe> Mr SilverLining.

05:40 * Finwe falls on SilverLining.

05:41 <Schism> Somewhere in the realm of 30 GB.

05:42 <Ali> Yep, a crappy 30GB

05:42 <Schism> rAdm. Finwe.

05:42 * Ali snugs on SilverLining as her brain hurts reading over UBR cards

05:42 * Schism doffs his double-chocolate-chip cookies with chocolate milk.

05:43 <Finwe> At a steady 7 MB/s, 30 gigs should take approximately 1 hour and 11 minutes.

05:44 <Ali> It took about an hour and a half

05:44 <Ali> But felt longer

05:44 <Schism> It always does feel a bit longer.  o3o;

05:46 <Finwe> Even with the maximum speed you get from Steam, 30 gigs would take around 10 minutes.

05:47 * Finwe hats on an Ali.

05:54 <Starlight_Glimmer> This is why I have a data grave. Most of my Steam library is installed just in case I ever feel the urge to play one of the games.

05:56 * Finwe noms on Starlight_Glimmer's data grave.

05:57 <Starlight_Glimmer> Nuu! All them bits will get wet!

06:01 * DashedRainbows licks the bits

06:04 * Schism mutters at doodlebug monsters.

06:09 <Finwe> o3o

06:11 <Schism> Hmmm.  Konchu vambraces seem like a good choice.  Slightly more defense, slightly less elemental.

06:11 <Schism> Gonna need a buncha iron ore, tho.  Bleh.

06:12 * Finwe finishes nomming on his breakfast consisting of 1.5 MJ, 37 grammes of digestible carbohydrates, 13 grammes of fat, 21 grammes of protein and 1254 mg of salt.

06:13 * Schism eyebrows at that last one.

06:14 <Finwe> And 50 µg of colecalciferol.

06:17 <Finwe> Schism: Most of the salt comes from salami (394 mg), milk (224 mg), yoghurt (162 mg) and bread (298 mg). The vegetables I had only contributed 8 mg.

06:19 <Finwe> Oh, and cheese (168 mg).

06:52 <Ali> Sorry I ment in FO4's own mod selection, not the outstanding mod that you have to download

06:53 <Schism> Ohh.  That's confusing.  :<

06:54 <Ali> You know the Mod menu in game right?

06:55 <Ali> It has a very weak selection of all the mods that the nexus has

06:55 <Schism> Egh.  Makes sense, I suppose.

06:56 <Ali> I know it has SOME of the mods that are on Nexus

06:56 <Ali> But all the big fun ones it does not

06:58 *** Quits: SilverLining (Fall@Pony-sfg.9lm.228.37.IP) (Quit: )

06:59 * Schism mms. "If I were feeling especially cynical, I would almost wonder if that's because Bethesda wanted to use their Creation Club to keep those mods for paid DLC."

07:02 <Starlight_Glimmer> Finwe: Well done: You ruined breakfast.

07:02 <Starlight_Glimmer> I'm all in favor of horse armor though.

07:06 <Ali> Ah good old Oblivion

07:06 <Ali> Here have a DLC

07:06 <Ali> Its Horse Armor

07:06 <Ali> It does nothing

07:06 <Ali> That'll be 10 bucks please

07:06 <Schism> Now, now.

07:07 <Schism> It doubled the health of the horse from 50 HP to 100 or somesuch, and... it was $20, not $10.

07:07 <Ali> EVEN BETTER

07:07 <Ali> Though I did like the Sheogorath DLC

07:07 <Schism> Well, Shivering Isles was more of an expansion pack.

07:07 <Ali> Whatever

07:07 <Ali> But the city was funny

07:08 <Schism> As is Sheogorath.  Everybody loves that god of cheese.  o3o

07:08 <Ali> Where you have to finish off someone but he doesn't want to see it coming

07:08 <Ali> So you push him off the stairs and one of the guards makes a rather funny comment but I don't remember what it was.

07:12 * Finwe boops Starlight_Glimmer.

07:12 <Finwe> In what way did I ruin breakfast?

07:14 <Starlight_Glimmer> No calorie counting

07:16 <Finwe> I counted joules. o3o

07:23 * Starlight_Glimmer drowns Finwe in maple syrup

07:24 * Ali plants the Canadian flag onto Finwe's body

07:25 * Schism offers the Ali some poutine. It's healthy! See, it's got vegetables and everything.

07:25 <Ali> Yes, so healthy

07:34 <Finwe> Ali: I wonder whether they're ever going to get Skyblivion finished.

07:35 <Ali> Is that both worlds combined?

07:35 <Finwe> No, it's Oblivion remade in Skyrim's engine and new graphics that take full advantage of modern GPUs.

07:35 <Ali> Yes and the glitches it would bring

07:36 <Finwe> https://www.skyblivion.com/

07:36 * Schism boops up to Finwe. "Oh, grand champion!"

07:36 <Ali> Cause we all know how greatly coded Skyrim is

11:14 <Cepheid> Mine is feeling okay too, though I don't want to kneel down on it right now.

11:14 <Cepheid> My left thigh is what hurts.

12:04 <Cepheid> Oh dear, something just occurred to me.

12:04 <Cepheid> The land owners are now contracting people to reshingle the roofing of all the housing in the area.

12:04 <Cepheid> Not a bad thing, mind.

12:04 <Cepheid> No, the problem is with the cats.

12:05 <Cepheid> When the guys came for the windows a few weeks ago, the cats were scared ****less.

12:24 * Cepheid puts the surround sound system on for music.

12:31 *** Quits: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-tpdjag.livnmi.sbcglobal.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

12:34 <Cepheid> I hate subwoofers, to be honest.

12:36 <Cepheid> I pick up on the thumping of them in both an auditory and physical sense, and my brain likes to combine both aspects into one to interpret the sound as louder than it actually is.

12:37 <Cepheid> It matters not how minute the vibration is, too.

12:38 <Cepheid> I'm sitting on the couch, and with the subwoofer at minimum, I'm still feeling the vibration flowing through the couch, even though I can't feel it through, say, the floor with my feet.

13:11 <Cepheid> "The moment mankind devoured the fruit of knowledge, he sealed his fate.  Entrusting his future to the cards, man clings to a dim hope."  *Listens to Persona 3 - The Battle for Everyone's Souls*

13:16 * Cepheid looks through OST of EON.

13:16 <Cepheid> ... Why is Lost Shinjuki's theme in this game?

13:20 <Cepheid> Er, Shinjuku*

13:42 * Cepheid switches from music and coding to designing a U-shaped desk.

13:47 <Cepheid> Hum, I'm kinda surprised at the cost of particle board.

13:47 <Cepheid> At least, the thin stuff anyways.

13:47 <Cepheid> 1/2" by 48" by 96" is only $20.32

13:48 <Cepheid> That'd be more than enough for a single "hub" of a desk at the height I want.

13:50 <Cepheid> Desk is 78.5cm from top of desk to floor, and I like it's height.  That's approximately 30.9".  96" would be enough for 3 vertical side hub panels.

13:51 <Cepheid> For a U-shaped desk, I'd need at least four such hubs.  One for each corner to properly support it.  Of course, the biggest cost will be the top of the desk, and that's also gonna be heavy, and the size of a U-shaped desk is pretty large and would be impossible to get through doorways, so I'll likely split the desk into two halves.

13:51 <Cepheid> Held together by a locking system at the middle of the U.

13:56 <Cepheid> Funny thing though, I can't seem to find particle board for the top that matches what I have.

13:56 <Cepheid> It's 1"-thick particle board.

13:56 <Cepheid> Most I see is 1/2" or 3/4".

14:07 <Cepheid> I need a compass.  The drawing kind.

16:44 <Cepheid> So, I used a stupid approach to figure out how many triangle segments I'd need to draw a circle to a certain level of accuracy with respect to an actual, geometric circle.

16:50 <Cepheid> Long story short, apparently 82 segments is sufficient for 99.9% accuracy.

17:57 <Schism> Cepheid: ...now, see if you can use a straightedge and compass to create a square with the equivalent area of a circle!

18:01 <Cepheid> It's not meant to really be a high-quality circle.  The approximation is fine.

18:01 <Cepheid> I just wanted it to look relatively smooth.

18:01 <Cepheid> There's kinda a downside though.

18:01 * Schism mm?

18:06 <Cepheid> Even at a radius of say, 1, it'll still use 82 points, because that's set in stone.  I'm not sure which approach is faster, a dynamic calculation of how many segments are needed, or using set-in-stone.

18:13 <Cepheid> It'd be nice if I could find some sort of ratio of radius-to-segments.

18:21 <Cepheid> Hmm.

18:21 <Cepheid> While I can't calculate an exact formula, graphing radius->number of segments reveals a logarithmic scaling.

18:28 <Cepheid> Well, not exactly.

20:57 <Cepheid> Yeah, given the size of this guy, the hole would need to be about 18 to 24 feet deep.

20:59 <Cepheid> This boss is literally all I have left to do.  I've collected every other item in the game, I've killed every other monster in the game.

21:09 <LibrarianofHope> you need 8 katanas at least

21:25 <Lunanightwindphone> I'm just bored blazing is at work so I might stream a video game not sure yet

21:25 <Lunanightwindphone> Might play the Saturn version of castlevania symphony of the night

21:31 <Cepheid> Heh.

21:34 <Lunanightwindphone> Dunno what else to do with my night

21:36 <Cepheid> Right then, time to start poking at this boss.  I need to start figuring out small details.

21:39 <LibrarianofHope> watch good omens

21:40 <LibrarianofHope> fun times

21:40 <LibrarianofHope> i mean it, go watch good omens on amazon, if you dont like you can ali cute once free of charge

21:42 <Cepheid> Hmm.

21:42 *** Quits: Lunanightwindphone (Lunanightwi@Pony-acfiub.nh.comcast.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

21:44 <Cepheid> ... The heck?  Why'd he regenerate two parts that turn?

21:47 <Cepheid> Right, so he can only use Full Burst if he has all his parts built.  If one of them dies on the turn he can use it, he'll waste the turn.

21:48 <Cepheid> He also cycles through a set pattern of regeneration, skipping to whatever is next in line.

21:49 <Cepheid> Agile Sword, Sound Cannon, Rocket Engine, Towering Sword, Energy Tube, Bomb Chamber.  Annoyingly, in order to fight this boss, multi-target attacks are pretty much critical.

21:52 <Cepheid> ... Oof.

21:52 <Cepheid> He has a healing skill that heals 9000 HP.

21:55 <Schism> Yech.

21:59 <Schism> Hum.  First sidequest to break a specific part.  It's a horn, so I guess I should bring a warhammer?

21:59 * Schism should go through the rest of the weapons to learn how to use 'em.

21:59 <Cepheid> Hammer and Hunting Horn defnitely bust horns more easily, but it's still possible to do it with other weapons.

21:59 <Cepheid> You may just end up deflecting off the horns a lot.

22:00 * Schism hms, and nods.

22:00 <Cepheid> You can also try sleep-bombing.  Where you put a monster to sleep with a sleep-element weapon, then while it's asleep, place as many large bombs at it's head, and detonating them.

22:00 <Schism> Haven't been doing much with bombs.  I probably should learn to use 'em.

22:01 <Schism> Then again, I don't have any status element weapons yet.

22:04 <Cepheid> That's kind a problem yeah.

22:05 <Cepheid> Nothing wrong with that.

22:12 <Cepheid> ...

22:12 <Cepheid> What is with this thing?  It has a skill that allows it to parry all attacks and take no damage for an entire turn.

22:14 <Cepheid> Right, everyone gets equipped with ailment-resist gear.

22:17 <Schism> Is that the same as the part that heals?

22:17 <Cepheid> Nope.

22:17 <Cepheid> The part that heals is entirely buff-only.

22:17 <Schism> Egh.  Keeping two parts bound seems like it'd be ridiculous.

22:18 <Schism> And completely prevent you from doing anything useful, either.

22:53 <Cepheid> We are the Misfits guild.  The real question, though?

22:54 <Cepheid> Do I want to do this in traditional Misfits manner and use a team that MAKES NO SENSE?  Or do I want to try and overpower the game?

22:54 <Cepheid> It's on heroic difficulty, so I'm thinking...

22:54 <Cepheid> Try and overpower.

22:55 <Cepheid> It's some weird difficulty mode.  It's exactly the same as Expert difficulty, but apparently if you decrease the difficulty, you cannot go back up to Heroic difficulty again.

22:56 <Schism> Mmm, I'd try it with an oddball team first, and see how far that gets you.  It might be surprisingly effective.

22:56 <Cepheid> Which makes it sound like there's something special about it.

22:56 <Cepheid> And yeah, oddball is interesting, I'll admit.

23:09 <LibrarianofHope> can i be overlord of books?

23:10 <Cepheid> Books are commonly associated with magicians, so I'll make you a magician.  What do your books specialize in doing?  Making people ill/sick?  Or causing grevious wounds.

23:11 <LibrarianofHope> for me, debuffs are good

23:13 <Cepheid> Arcanist, then.

23:13 <LibrarianofHope> imma go to a monster and show them a werid picture.

23:14 <LibrarianofHope> confusion magic

23:14 <LibrarianofHope> while they think about it someone can punch them

23:15 <Cepheid> I made you an arcanist with a female hexer look, and named you Libby. :P

23:16 <Cepheid> So that's... one healer, one attacker, and one debuffer.

23:17 <Schism> Adra gets elemental damage, I assume.

23:17 <Cepheid> Yeah, he's a dragon.  He breathes flames, lightning and ice.

23:18 <Schism> Hm.  Can't throw a save on SD and load it with the new game, though?

23:18 <Cepheid> Hmm?

23:18 <Schism> Oh, I'm just thinking about loading old saves for bonuses.

23:18 <Schism> And possibly bringing over your old party in a reduced form.

23:18 <Cepheid> Nope.  None of that.

23:19 <Cepheid> Hmm, Harbinger does not have *THAT* skill.  Darn.

23:19 <Cepheid> Who has it in their place, then..?

23:19 <Schism> But... for once, it would actually have a storyline basis!  *grumble*

23:20 <Cepheid> Only game importing would work with is EO4.

23:20 <Cepheid> And the Untold games, possibly.

23:20 <Cepheid> The problem though is more that the skill trees are different.

23:20 <Cepheid> It's a combination of Etrian Odyssey 4's Novice-Veteran-Master setup, and Etrian Odyssey 3's subclassing.

23:21 <Schism> Mm.  Well, I was imagining more of the whole set of players getting dropped down to level 1, with maybe a couple skill points in turn.

23:21 <Schism> characters*

23:21 <Schism> After all, EON has all the classes from earlier games.

23:21 <Cepheid> Not all.

23:21 <Cepheid> A good majority of them though, the most popular ones.

23:22 <Schism> Well, most then.  Hum...

23:24 <Cepheid> At some point, ADra will get the ability to call down freakin' meteors, looks like.

23:26 <Cepheid> Hmm.

23:26 <Cepheid> The closest I can get to EXP boost is a skill on Farmers.

23:27 <Cepheid> But no "draw in enemies" skill.

23:27 <Cepheid> I'll have to use Bells, I guess.

23:28 <Cepheid> ...

23:28 <Cepheid> Actually, ye know.

23:28 <Cepheid> I'm gonna switch things up a bit.  I'm gonna take the Magic Caster this time.
