Thinking back about the Murky/Alabaster matter system.
We're all complaining the the currently supposed drop rate of ~33% is too low and SE did a mistake but... it might be just right, ironically.
It's too slow for the first levels where the Currency required is still little, but it scales up fast. When it reaches 25k+ for each upgrade you're gonna end up in the opposite situation, having a lot of Matters and nothing to do, because you need more units to spend them.
Which is... ironic, and emphasizes that revolving on Matter as a requisite to allow you to spend units wasn't a very good idea probably (unless they plan to use Matters for other things in the future, we'll see).
Why did they create this system? I can imagine because they wanted to promote full climbs, that is doing all floors and opening chest.
Binding Matters as a drop inside chest was their idea to promote that I suppose.
And making so NMs killed would increase the droprate on the following week, was their way to promote that too in synergy.
It just... doesn't work imho. I see their idea, I see their intent, it just doesn't work. But hey the content is not "complete", we'll see what happens in november when more stuff is added!

You mean you guys don't like having a 50/50 chance to go where you want?
Nothing better than doing the half hour hour long boss fight with your group that is disorganized, starts late, and then can't get to the battlefield

I will admit I am not a fan of the sky portal warps because they will either tie it to a switch like in sky or make it so it doesn’t work if you have aggro. I have “heard” (not me promise…) that the best way to travel through is just run for it (screw sneak and invis and ghrahs) and superwarp up!

Im going 5-4-3-2-1 all the time after finishing last tower, because I can just clear 5th right after opening the chest :)

Whats frightening is how much of your data they sell without your consent and how much money they make off of you. They make very little money from each person who's data they scrape and sell. Its in the volume.
I have a good joke about volume. I'll tell it after the coffee hits. Long after.

Other nations do not pay tariffs. Consumers pay tariffs. This is wrong, but its also right.
The importer pays the tariff, but the importer also passes that buck to the consumer. However, if the importer fails to sell what they paid a tariff on, then the importer is the one paying the tariff. This is technically the correct answer. However, this lead to a very interesting problem: since the tariff is being overturned in the US, the government would have to pay it back. What do you think is going to happen?
I guess since the importer is taking the risk, he will be pocketing that extra cash from selling overpriced imported Labubus. This has happened before. The money was refunded.
Its 7:16 in my AM. Not looking for the citation right now.

Although I don't know if the enlight would overwrite/can be reoverwritten by your enstone. Ygnas will overwrite your haste ii with his low duration version and his enlight will overwrite your enspell and you can't overwrite it with an enspell 1. You'll have to click it off manually first and then reapply.

Going on 6 months without i-seal campaign? That should be permanent.
I agree completely, it's ridiculous. Especially with body seals, it's a time saving ratio of 30:1 or more to get the kupons during campaign. Most other campaigns are somewhere between 1.2 and 3:1.
While it's inconvenient for people starting new chars, most veterans will plan ahead and get dozens or more kupons during the campaign to never have to farm abyssea slips anyway. If abyssea slip farming isn't part of the planned path for emp armor, make a permanent way to get the kupons. Maybe throw them in Ambuscade, idk.

Sigh.. Kids these days.
I'll break it down for you.
There is no pay wall.
You don't have to pay anything.
They ask for your email so they can spam you with "subscription" ads for their premium pay wall content, which is not that or it would be behind a pay wall.
Go complain to telegraph about their "ethics" in harvesting personal information just to spam you ads.
Do better Panta.

It is frightening to think that just because its on internet, its fair game.
If adblock can bypass a barrier that was supposed to block access for non-subscribers, it is only possible because damn dev thought just a basic javascript would do the work, what is a stupid thing to think.
It is not because everyone is entitled to consume it. It is just that the owners didnt want to invest in control access from backend.
Their errors are not your rights.

But is consuming a content you are not supposed to just because of third party programs ethically correct?
If you weren't "supposed" to consume it they would not have published it on the *** Internet.
What kind of logic is that.

I thought AI communication style being sycophants is totally obvious if you use AI a lot
The average person probably doesn't pick up on it. There are a lot of scammers who successfully use AI to generate responses to people on dating sites, FB, text messages, etc and a lot of people don't pick up on it.
I went through this somewhat recently. My poor Dad was "dating" someone on some site he met "her" on. A few weeks after they "met", he nearly got scammed out of a lot of money through a pretty clever scam that had him transferring money around until I and the PD caught up to him. I found out about "her" later and when I looked at her messages, it was extremely obvious they were written by AI. According to the PD folks we spoke with, it's really common and scammers are using AI generated messages, most people don't pick up on it.
However, this lead to a very interesting problem: since the tariff is being overturned in the US, the government would have to pay it back. What do you think is going to happen?
FWIW it hasn't fully been overturned, IIRC SCOTUS has until mid-month to rule on it. It's really unlikely they'll rule that they have to be refunded.
It's unlikely they'll rule against them in the first place, but refunding them is even more unlikely IMO. Either way, it's not a done deal yet.

Portal will only auto-port you up to the next floor if you have the floor's temp "but what if someone gets ditched without the temp item"
This would involve one of two things happening:
1-group started fighting things before everyone was ported up
2-someone died and group kept killing mobs while they were dead
Both of these are conscious decisions affected by the group and are noticeable. A quick "everyone get this temp item?" question fixes the issue. If the stupido *** up, they *** up.

Here’s hoping this means a folding Apple phone next Christmas to get some healthy North American competition in the market.
What color did you get? I've been thinking about getting the air in the sky blue color. Not because I need a new gameboy, but because I like the look of the air. Have a 16e at the moment in black.
Does it feel flimsy? I worry about it snapping from being so thin; but I mean, it's about as thin as earlier iterations of the iphone. I can be a bit rough on my phones.

I don't find the menu interaction being SUCH a major problem. Granted I don't want to defend it either.
The biggest issue I've had with that is with people using it too early/too late, meaning they get different credit and so you need to ask every party member in a PUG "did you get the floor completition temp item yes/no?"
This could be solved by adding a new way to handle this ccontent, where the party leader is the one that brings people up/down and when he does so, the whole party is ported up.
Would they even be able to implement this technically? I guess it would solve this issue but it would create issues for situations where someone crashes or DCs, I suppose...
Or an option to toggle between the current setting and "auto next floor"? Maybe that would be too much work, idk.
