    Default Does It Mean I'm Addicted To DDO If . . .

    I see a commercial for a truck claiming 381 HP and I think: "****, what a gimp truck. Clearly it dumped Con and didn't take toughness."

    381's not bad for a truck that size. if you saw it on a commercial it's probably 381 stock, shouldnt take much aftermarket goodness to get it to a respectable number.

    besides we dont know if this will be driven casually or in more hardcore ventures, 381's fine depending on the terrain.

    I actually meant that my first interpretation of 381 HP was 381 hitpoints. Hence the dumped Con.

    381's not bad for a rogue. ihe's a first lifer so that's probably 381 base, shouldnt take much gear to get it to a respectable number.

    besides we dont know if he's a more casual player or into more hardcore ventures, 381's fine for shroud and easy epics.


    Translation above.

    clearly you need to play MORE ddo if you didnt catch the fairly obvious ddo-esque rhetoric in my original post :P

    What about imagining running through work slapping everyone in the face to get agro, then when everyone is grouped up as they chase you, casting Wail?

    WhoA. Weird but playing a monk has caused me to be a more introspective person IRL. Oo. Crazy stuff our minds do when they wander to the cooler imaginations.

    Aye, I often wonder whether catholic priests in Ireland are necromantic palemasters, after all, they worship a 2000 year old zombie, and their sermons seem to turn the people in their church into moaning zombies. (Just watch a priest in Ireland giving a mass, and listen to the low moaning responses that the people attending give when prompted, it's actually quite scary, and return of the living dead-esque: Braaaaiiiinnss. )

    Sorry if that offends anyone.

    As much as things like Blade Barrier & Implosion are awesome in-game, the spell I keep wanting to cast in RL is Cometfall. Just pointing and having a boulder knock people on their rears would be so awesome.

    One day i woke up and logged into ddo. Went on our airship, buffed up yada yada, everything was as usually, heard all the sounds of shrines etc. But then i realized that my stereo system wasnt even turned on yet. But i heard ddo sound loud and clear...

    EDIT: Imagination is powerful, it can fill up gaps, as if nothing was ever missing.

    1) While dreaming usable items become highlighted when you look directly at them

    2) You've suggested rolling for the last piece of pizza

    3) One of your students says something stupid and comment to self is "he must have rolled a 1 on that INT check"


    UDR Loot Rules:
    1) No griefing people for pulling loot that dropped in their name
    2) When rolling, classes for which the item is "useful" get +10 to the roll
    example: Wiz and Barb both roll on a Torc, the barb saying "I'm TRing into an arcane next week"
    Wiz gets +10 on his roll

    Had a dream last night, normal stuff. Suddenly, I went from having to assassinate President Elmo to running around eChrono as a bard. Been happening a lot lately.

    And yes, I can quit if I want to as well.

    Sometimes when I go to text or call my best friend, whose name is Chris, I press "G" in my contacts on my phone because his main character's name is Gladyss.

    (You might be a DDO addict if..... you text your friend's character's name instead of their real life name.)

    Saw a reckless driver on the road a while back and actually thought 'gee, they zerged that intersection'.

    True story.
    I don't have a zerging problem.

    I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.

    I answered to a Colleague at work: "Don´t worry, it is WAI" (I am in Germany so it was: "Mach Dir keine Sorgen, es ist WAI"). He didn´t understand the second part, but he didn´t care, as in our office it is very common to mumble, to give no information, or cryptic curses.
