00:16 <Finwe> !lullaby
00:16 * DerpyBot carries Finwe off to bed
00:16 * DerpyBot tucks Finwe in and hums a lullaby
00:16 <Finwe> !shoo
00:16 * DerpyBot sways from side to side, quietly humming "shoo be doo shoo shoo be doo"
00:16 <Finwe> Good night, everypony!
00:16 * Finwe retires to his boudoir.
00:19 * ThatAnonPony waves!
00:20 <Schism> Darnit.
00:21 <Schism> Punchcat is hard to define in some terms.
00:28 <Cepheid> Punchcat?
00:31 <Schism> I'm a MNK mainclass.
00:34 *** Quits: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-o527to.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Quit: Leaving.)
00:35 <Cepheid> Ah, right.
00:35 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'm just a straight-up recently-possessed-and-unpossessed vampire.
00:37 <Schism> <scream of despair>
00:39 <Cepheid> Two pieces of the apothecary's set, now..
00:39 <Cepheid> Which ironically is again, a ranged set. Apparently you shoot health into people.
00:40 <Cepheid> 'Cause everyone knows the best way to improve your resistances and heal yourself is to start with smaller caliber rounds and work your way up.
00:41 <Stormspark> This game is MUCH longer than the original, shesh
00:41 <Stormspark> in some ways it's easier (far fewer instant deaths), but in some ways it's harder (no more saving anywhere, FAR more difficult combat)
00:44 <Cepheid> Without spoiling it, is it a continuation of DOOM 2016's story? I haven't even seen previews or trailers for it, so..
00:46 <Stormspark> I'm not talking about Doom lol
00:47 <Stormspark> I'll probably eventually pick that up but not until it's on sale...it's hard to get excited about FPS's
00:47 * Schism lets out a shriek of preternatural despair.
00:47 <Stormspark> https://store.steampowered.com/app/1057090/Ori_and_the_Will_of_the_Wisps/
00:47 <Stormspark> is what I'm talking about
00:47 <Schism> Okay, that works.
00:47 <Schism> Quiet anger. Because I screamed into my elbow.
00:48 <Stormspark> I mean Doom 2016 is a decent enough game but it's not really anything sepcial
00:48 <Stormspark> certainly not something I'd pay $60 for. I got it for $20 on a sale and I thought it was worth it for htat
00:50 <Cepheid> Ah.
00:51 * Cepheid picks up the Plaguemancer's Amulet. "... Does this mean I now control the Coronavirus?"
00:52 * Ali wants to die first!
00:54 <Cepheid> So, uh..
00:54 <Cepheid> I got this weapon.
00:54 <Cepheid> A screenshot would best explain it.
00:56 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/EXUXg5a.jpg
01:01 * PinkieShy sets up a crab rave party but with ponies.
01:02 <Cepheid> Catching up on delicious home-made memes, PinkieShy?
01:02 <PinkieShy> Sorta :P

01:06 * ThatAnonPony poni raves?
01:06 <Cepheid> Also, Schism, are you alright?
01:22 <Schism> I'm alright. The scream was just because sometimes, everyone needs to scream.
01:23 <Schism> Thanks, though. Right now I'm coming up with one or two characters.
01:27 <Cepheid> You should see the weapon in that image I just posted.

05:06 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.
05:15 * Ali flumps over ConfusionRift
05:16 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali.
05:26 * Ali leans into ConfusionRift, really needs company but can't have any.
05:27 <ConfusionRift> Oh... right. (sighs)
05:28 <Golden> ???
05:30 <ConfusionRift> This whole madness.
05:33 <Golden> Ah
05:33 * Ali flops in Factorio and tries to do something to pass the time.
05:33 <ConfusionRift> They might employ marshal real soon.
05:33 <ConfusionRift> *marshal law
05:33 <Golden> Oh no....
05:33 <ADragonDreaming> Me I'm having trouble sleeping in general terms.
05:34 <ConfusionRift> Saaaame. Haven't had a good sleep in a while, even on days off.
05:34 * ConfusionRift lightly pats ADragonDreaming.
05:35 * ConfusionRift might join Ali in a bit. :P
05:35 <Golden> The Marshall Law may just be a rumor though.
05:35 <ADragonDreaming> *Martial
05:35 <ConfusionRift> That, sorry.
05:36 <ConfusionRift> Someone wrote it as "marshal" and stuck with me.

06:14 <ConfusionRift> Bah, gonna take a shower. Be back.

06:28 <Ali> Ish a thing
06:30 <clarrisa> wiggle
06:31 <Finwe> In good old times when the channel was more populous and young and FallSilently was still with us, I somewhat accidentally started a mass wiggling of some 40 wigglewiggles or so.
06:31 <Finwe> He just said, "I kick the next one to follow suit."
06:32 <Ali> I do miss Fall
06:32 <Ali> And quite a few others that have poofed.
06:35 * Cyan_Spark nickers softly at Ali

06:37 * Finwe boops Ali.
06:37 * Ali squeaks
06:37 <Ali> So what brings newponi to heres?
06:40 * Finwe is making pease soup for lunch today.
06:40 <Finwe> This is long project. You need to start soaking the peas the evening before, and they need to be boiled for several hours.
06:43 * PinkieShy coughs
06:43 * PinkieShy licks Finwe
06:43 <ConfusionRift> RAdm. Finwe. (salutes)
06:44 <Finwe> PinkieShy: I hope that you are not infected.
06:44 <PinkieShy> Nope :)
06:44 <PinkieShy> I'm just having sinus coughing regularly..
06:44 * Finwe hugs PinkieShy.
06:44 <PinkieShy> I'm as healthy as a horse :D
06:44 <Finwe> :3
06:45 * Ali licks ConfusionRift nosie
06:46 * ConfusionRift boops Ali. :P
06:46 <PinkieShy> I'm trying to avoid getting it as much as possible.
06:47 <Finwe> PinkieShy: In Swedish you are healthy as a fish or a nut kernel.
06:47 <Finwe> In Finnish, you are healthy as a billygoat.
06:47 <PinkieShy> I have a Nephew who is 2 years old who I visit regularly and he is around his grandma (brother's wife's mother) alot and she has problems like she a year or two ago had a kidney transplant and such so..
06:48 <PinkieShy> So I'm as healthy as a goat named billy?
06:49 <Finwe> Billy goat meaning a male goat in this context, I think.
06:49 <PinkieShy> I know :P Just trying to be silly :D
06:50 * PrincessRainbows looks up at ConfusionRift with teary eyes and makes grabby hooves
06:50 <Finwe> Moreover, goats invented modern child care, what with a nanny watching over the kids.
06:50 * ConfusionRift grabbies, then patpats PrincessRainbows
06:51 * PrincessRainbows makes sad little horse noises before curling up with her pacifier for sleepies

06:52 * Finwe doffs himself.
06:52 * Filly_Nightmares eeeeeeeee
06:52 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Finwe for food
06:53 * Finwe is frantically trying to keep count of all the Nightmares pones.
06:53 * Finwe has no pease soup to offer yet.
06:53 <Finwe> Try again in a couple of hours.
06:54 <Finwe> "Pease" is a weird word.
06:54 * PrincessRainbows also borrows Ali as a plushie. Nini
06:54 * Ali squeaks
06:55 <Finwe> In the Middle English period, when the final -e more or less vanished in pronunciation, it started to get interpreted as being plural.
06:55 <Finwe> And so the previously non-existant singular "pea" was formed.
06:56 * Filly_Nightmares chews on Finwe ears
06:56 <Finwe> *existent
06:56 * Finwe ear-wiggles.

16:55 <Cepheid> Adra, one of your favourite elder dragons is returning in May.
17:00 <ADragonDreaming> Oh?
17:07 <Cepheid> Alatreon
17:10 <Cepheid> So, according to Canada Post, to send off this video card, it'll cost me $20. And furthermore, a calculator to calculate customs, duties, taxes, says that all three will be $0.
17:13 <Cepheid> I'm harassing my parents as they have more than enough free time at the moment to do it, and they keep shipping stuff to my sister, so there's no excuse for why they can't ship one package for me.
17:13 <Cepheid> Granted, my dad was worried about customs fees and such that we might have to pay.
17:15 <Cepheid> Actually, before I get any gaming done today, I'm gonna make sure the component is still working.
17:21 *** Joins: RyuImperator (RyuImperato@Pony-o527to.dip0.t-ipconnect.de)

17:29 <Cepheid> Yep. Still works. Gets about 50-55 FPS at "High" settings in Seliana, using the D3D12 renderer.
17:44 <Cepheid> There.
17:44 <ADragonDreaming> noice
17:44 <Cepheid> It's packaged in antistatic bag, a box with foam protection(Little snug, but it won't move or shake at least), and a sheet with the information sitting on top of it. It's sitting on the kitchen table.
17:44 <Cepheid> Needs needs unassuming wrapping, and to be shipped.
17:50 * Cepheid loads up Grim Dawn. Talks to the emissaries of the two factions you have to choose between at Homestead. Listens to both stories and histories. Knowing some details from Forgotten Gods, knows what's really going on here, chooses the safe side.
17:55 * Cepheid needs to keep an eye out for Vitality, Bleeding and Chaos resist gear. He's gonna need it a lot where he's going after he finishes up here.
17:55 <Finwe> Good evening, my perissodactyls of minute stature.
17:56 <Cepheid> In fact, I think I have enough spirit for that one ring, so I should switch over to it for poison resist.
17:56 <Cepheid> Might lose a bit of damage, as a result. But having high poison resist for this area is a good idea.
17:56 <Finwe> Mrs Lunanightwind, Mlles Filly_Nightmares and DashedRainbows, Messrs Cepheid, ADragonDreaming and RyuImperator.
17:56 * Finwe doffs his hat.
17:56 <ADragonDreaming> yo
17:57 <Cepheid> Heyo.
17:57 <Lunanightwind> Yo
17:57 <Cepheid> I make this game seem trivial with my build, but the reality is, if I don't cover my resistances, as if I were playing an actual roguelike, I can, and will get eaten alive.
17:58 <Finwe> Fourth day of staying home and I'm starting to feel utterly bored.
17:58 <Finwe> There are going to be at least three weeks more. :/
17:59 <Lunanightwind> i honestly wish my husband was staying home from work right now just cuz he works in a pharmacy
18:00 <Lunanightwind> but pharmacies are still needed retail so i just have to worry every day about him coming home with it
18:01 <Cepheid> Yeah, such is the nature of important services, like basic necessicities. That is, food, electricity, water, sewage, etc.
18:01 <Cepheid> Myself, I'm glad my pharmacy is at least running. I had to get a round of antibiotics from them.
18:04 <Cepheid> So, apparently the explanation behind these totems I keep finding in Grim Dawn is that they are a player requested thing.
18:04 <Cepheid> There's shrines throughout the game. Some of them are "supply this item" and some are "kill some enemies" to get the rewards.
18:04 <Cepheid> Apparently, the players love the "kill the enemies" ones, because they offer spontaneous challenges. But the shrines are not repeatable, because of the bonuses they give.
18:05 <Cepheid> So the devs basically took the logic of the combat shrines, and applied them to a new object that offers no stat point rewards, but provides all the combat rewards.
18:05 <Cepheid> That said, I find them to be a tad unbalanced. They're easier than boss encounters, but drop like, 10+ rare items and at least one epic item, with chances for blueprints and other stuff.
18:06 <Cepheid> Which is more than you get out of the bosses by far.

18:11 <Cepheid> Right, right.
18:11 <Cepheid> That said, there's plenty of ways to ensure that they won't get contaminated at a pharmacy.
18:12 <Cepheid> Put up temporary sheeting between the storage/dispensary and the rest of the store. Do not touch customer's hands, by sliding the bag of medications to the customer and having them pick it up. Etc, etc, etc.
18:12 <Cepheid> The biggest issue is regularly cleaning the terminal.
18:14 <Arkomeda> register
18:15 <Finwe> Register?
18:15 * Finwe registers Arkomeda.
18:16 <Arkomeda> What hte

18:17 <Finwe> You wrote "register" to several channels. o3o

18:17 <Cepheid> Use /msg nickserv help register for more information.

18:19 <Cepheid> Nothing.

18:28 <Cepheid> The performance cost of this patch set?
18:29 <Cepheid> Intel processors lose 93% of their performance capacity.
18:33 <Cepheid> It's meant to be a last-resort mitigation, though.
18:33 <Cepheid> Oh. This is entirely for LVI, too.

19:19 <Cepheid> ADragonDreaming, no promises from me, given my track history, but my dad is promising me he will send the package on Monday. I'm not sure what manner of shipping company he will be using though. Probably Purolator, as they've got a contract with his employer, and he's probably gonna try to use that somehow.
19:22 <Cepheid> Oh my gods my health regen in Grim Dawn is so staggeringly high I can fight with relative safety in aetherfire.
19:23 <Cepheid> Aetherfire being a constant field effect who's primary nature is "Stop standing in the fire."
19:24 <Cepheid> It deals a static percentage of your health in damage every second.
19:25 <Cepheid> Looks like... 15% per second.
19:36 <Cepheid> You know, for a game with a static world, I sure like playing this a lot more than ARPGs with non-static worlds. Not sure why.
19:43 <Cepheid> Only issue with Veteran mode. I'm finding gear that's beyond my level, now. I'm seeing level 50 gear when I'm level 44.
19:46 <Cepheid> Ahaha... Ahahahaha... AAAHAHAHAHAHAAA!
19:47 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/bv6Lhxc.jpg Another on-hit proc. Increases my damage by a staggering amount for 8 seconds, with a 16-second recharge. And this isn't even at maximum level.

20:01 <Cepheid> Nice, Lunanightwind.
20:02 <Lunanightwind> certainly turned my mood around
20:02 <Lunanightwind> thats a video game
20:02 <Lunanightwind> heck thats final fantasy if i decide to buy it
20:02 * Finwe noms on Ali's tail.
20:03 <Cepheid> Let's see... Aetherflame filled area. Full of Aether and Elemental damage attacking enemies..
20:04 * Cepheid equips gear that provides 80% resist across the board for all elements. Can only get up to 65% for Aether resist. But fills in the rest with a consumable item.
20:04 <Cepheid> I'd prefer 95% or even 100%, but the game limits you by default to 80%. To get any higher, you need items that can increase the limit.

20:06 <Cepheid> Man, if only people realized how good resistances are, in contrast to raw physical defense. Maybe then more players would gear themselves properly in games like Monster Hunter.
20:08 <Finwe> Hmm, could be DA2 tiem.
20:08 <Finwe> !hugtiem
20:08 <Finwe> !hug
20:08 <DerpyBot> Hugtiem? :3
20:08 <Finwe> :3
20:08 * DerpyBot wraps her front hooves around Finwe in a tight embrace
20:08 <Finwe> After hugtiem, of course.
20:10 <Cepheid> Hum.
20:10 <Cepheid> So, according to the game's manual, armor calculations come before resistances.
20:11 <Finwe> Are you MS Excel gaming?
20:11 <Cepheid> Nah.
20:11 <Cepheid> Just reading on the manner of damage calculations to figure out which approach is better.
20:11 <Cepheid> Loading resistances, or loading armor.
20:12 <Lunanightwind> alright gonna try to clear this arena in doom again bbl
20:13 <Cepheid> Hum, okay. Armor affects physical damage only. So it's irrelevant for elemental damage.
20:14 <Cepheid> So, elemental resists straight up just reduce an elemental attack's damage by a straight percentage. Stacked armor value does nothing.
20:15 <Cepheid> That said, ultimately, one should have both physical armor and resists at their highests, and set them up dependent on the area.

20:16 <Cepheid> That said I'm kinda annoyed I can't do anything about aetherfire, except outspeed it's damage.
20:16 <Cepheid> It does a set 15% of my total health in damage per second. Resistances and armor do nothing to mitigate it.
20:17 <Cepheid> Which can be a problem like in this area, which is covered in the stuff.
