It probably doesn't help that I am also working on skinning and leatherworking either. Leveled this guy on a new server through Invasions with 1 point in every skill and I'm going out of my way to skin.
I'd probably be at least a level higher if I stopped dicking around but I stand by what I say about experience. It feels more like a grind because there is more emphasis on quests and far less on the fluff. It's not a bad thing it's just different from the previous two expansions where you could literally level off of vendor trash, rare mobs and especially bonus objectives in Warlords.. |

So much contradictory information in this forum, heh. One guy stating he is halfway done leveling on Day 1, the other complaining that XP is too low and the game is a grind.
It's almost like different people grind at a different speed, yeah? I'd also like to know where it is that I'm complaining in that post by simply saying it feels like a longer grind.
To answer my own question, I think it has to do with mob and treasure experience. Rares and treasures give little to no experience and regular mobs aren't much better. A treasures or rares in Warlords, for example, gave you ~2% experience where now you're lucky if it gives you .2% so it really makes quests carry a lot more weight when even the bonus objectives are significantly reduced.

I'm not a law kind of person but I'd like a general idea of what to expect in regards to my condition and my place of work. Since getting Lyme, I've been on the receiving end of fevers, splitting head aches, stiff joints, nausea, cold chills and incredibly fatigued with no end in sight to which my employer has rewarded me with more physically-demanding labor on top of extra detailing while full well knowing my situation. Either cannot be bothered to find a replacement or has done such a shit job at employing spares that none are available until they can find one soon™.
It's fucking garbage. I need rest and these anti-biotics are absolutely destroying my guts. If I tell them that this is unreasonable and that I am unable to work because my entire body is going haywire and have a prescription to prove my condition then would they be reasonable and give me time off or is that giving them enough grounds to have me fired or let go? |

I was one of those who hit a snag with the end of the Prague scene. The worst part is is that the save point is set to the prelog mission so you have to do the final battle in Dubai and then sit through a long and mostly boring video which is unskippable to see if their suggestions worked.
Fortunately, I just had to put my client in windowed mode and it squeaked by. |

Not too shabby. Could tweak it more for some gains. |

Reviews say the gameplay is good, but the ending is bad. But I've also seen folks say it takes 20+ hours to get to the end, so 20 hours of good DX is good for me, even if the ending is subpar.
I haven't read any reviews since I am more or less going in to it blind but is it a rushed story telling kind bad or cliffhanger kind of bad? |

And here I thought Bethesda was doing a fantastic job at releasing shitty over-priced DLC. Half of that garbage can probably be done with a trainer if you were really desperate to ruin the experience.
I'll just wait for individual sales of the story missions for 5 - 10$ if they're on the level of The Missing Link. |

| I absolutely love chambered cases where the PSU is separated from the rest of the case but am not big on panel windows so I might have to go to a H440 which is $80 off at Newegg + a 5% promo. NZXT and Phanteks make some great looking cases and are typically in the same ball park in terms of pricing and build quality. |

Can it handle the massive length of modern GPUs?
I probably shouldn't have called it a shitty case because it has served me incredibly well over the years and is in a class of its own when it comes to silence.
The P182 and possibly the generations which come after it all have exceptional space when it comes to the length of the GPU and the height of the CPU heatsink. The 290x is 293mm long and it still fits even with the drive bay in place. Take it out and you have another six or seven inches of clearance to soak in all that fresh air.
It's definitely something which has spoiled me and left me a little ignorant towards. When shopping for a new case, I always forgot that dimensions matter and some cases simply have to be written off entirely regardless of how nice they are because you're 5mm too high or long. |

What's this going to do for PSU requirements? If someone is using a low power card, will they still be required to get a 500W+ PSU just because PCIe 4 motherboard requires it? That's what it appears to do. Is there a option in the spec to drop to 75w or less?
It shouldn't do anything. It just means that the slot can power up to 300 watts if needed before the card requires extra power through pin connections. |

I have that case, I've no desire to get a new one since my temps are all low despite the case fans being on low. I rarely hear the GPU fan go up a gear and CPU fan never does. Guess it depends some on what fans you're using with it, and I think I reversed the top fan to be exhaust. I only have a little SSD drive in the upper HDD cage, I figured the potential to block the intake fan was the main potential weakness of the design.
I have mine configured the same way with the exception of a 120mm low-speed fan occupying the area where optic drives would go which feeds right in to the heatsink whereas the other 120mm intake below it is likely being drawn right in to the graphics card and then expelled through the heatsink or possibly not at all since one of the rear fans might be sucking it out first.
When I haul off the side panel, temperatures drop by 10 - 12c which was never an issue with my old 280 and hotter overclocked FX6300. I could try and reverse some of my fans for positive pressure but without the extra dust filters it makes me cautious so I'll likely buy a cheap NZXT Source 210 or order a new batch of performance fans since I just realized I am running Enermax TB Silents.

The legends are true about the 290x. I can tell when it's working hard because my feet get noticeably warmer and all other components usually take a 5-10*c bump when it's taxed along with being what I am sure is incredibly loud to some.
This is more to do with a real shitty case when it comes to airflow though. My nearly 10 year old Antec P182 isn't built for it.

Minor tweaks on the surface but I doubt they can add anything to the game that would give it more substance. The rick and morty mods seem like a natural fit, too bad they'll get shut down.
Anything Rick and Morty is a natural fit. |
