Re: Escapecraft Miners Association
I always mine with diamond tools. I did go through a phase of using iron back in Terra, but it was shortlived. To quote some youtuber whose name I've long since forgotten: "Resources in Minecraft are infinite, your time is not". Mining with diamond tools means you find more ores in the same timefram...

Try watching Totalbiscuit's full normal mode playthrough on his livestream: http://www.twitch.tv/totalbiscuit/b/335371091
He get's kinda lucky (pretty much a requirement for this game) but he also shows some good fundamentals and a few tricks you could learn from.

Re: Does this look reasonable?
Looks like a very nice build, not quite top of the line but pretty damn close. The question now is could you get it cheaper if you shopped around? Oh and I'd consider dropping one of those hard drives in favor of a solid state one. Installing an extra storage drive later down the road is no trouble,...

Re: Borderlands 2 O_O
Just beat the warrior on true vault hunter mode. Also joined up with some randoms online to fight terramorphous the invincible. We killed him 3 times, and wiped at least 6. The only decent loot I got out of it was an orange class mod for a Siren (which I'm happy to trade if anyone has any offers).

Is anybody at, or close to, level 50? Imma need some help with terramorphous the invincible. I'm told soloing him is technically possible, but I'm lacking either the skill or the gear.

Re: Windows 8. What's your opinion?
Why can't Windows just be the nice middle of the road OS? I don't want the sterile, oversimplified gloss of a mac, and I don't have the patience to learn how to get the most out of Linux.

Depends what you need to do with it. Photography? Image manipulation? Digital painting? Graphic design?
Those myriad of buttons may be daunting when you start out, but you only need a handful for most tasks and you'll pick up on the others as you go.

Fortune on the spot. Been using the same pick since the enchantment was first introduced. I think I'll probably be the first to use up a fortune III unbreaking III entirely on valid blocks (diamond, lapis, redstone, coal). Although that feat is made much less impressive by the fact I usually mine wi...

Re: Escapecraft Miners Association
Per session? Not really sure. Until I get bored. Mining (and minecraft in general really) is my zen activity, I just do it to zone out and relax, I don't really keep track of the time. If I had to guess I'd say 40 minutes to an hour.

Re: Escapecraft Miners Association
Not bad, though I'm pretty sure I've had better. A stack of diamonds is pretty typical for me per mining trip, 2 stacks on a good day. Don't think I've ever hit 3, my inventory usually fills up with iron & lapis before I get that far.

Minor final boss spoilers So apparently you can go back and fight the warrior multiple times for loot & experience. It won't let you fast travel straight there so you'll have to run through that whole section again, which is decent experience in itself and takes you past a few chests. One you reach ...

Woo! Beat the main quest. Much more involving story this time around. As well as some nice loot and a ton of eridium, you also unlock True Vault Hunter mode, and a lvl 50 side quest to kill a vaguely defined giant monster. Given that 2-3 levels in Borderlands can mean the difference between tough as...

Re: How much do you treat others beliefs?
I enjoy discussing different beliefs. When it comes to religion and the supernatural I don't believe a word of it, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to try and understand people with a different world view.

Oh definitely. A good barrage of rockets will take down a constructor or similar miniboss in seconds. The ammo is expensive mind, and pretty rare when you don't have a vendor, and of course the reload speed is slow. Being a gunzerker helps, I have 50% chance not to consume ammo, 25% chance to add am...

Gunzerker with Assault rifles, pistol, and rocket launcher. Two rocket launchers in the case of bosses . Oh and for grenades I use longbow slag + transfusion. They're great, I can heal and weaken enemies while keeping my distance, I've kept using them despite having higher damage grenades available.

You need to play Rage then, best reaction animations of any game to date. Borderlands 2 is nice, but it doesn't compare.
