It is designed primarily for the desktop/laptop (keyboard mouse) environment - but it does also work with touch. To me, giving up 1000's of HP and making hitting your skeleton quality threshold more difficult isn't worth it even if skeleton level is only reduced by 15%, as you'd be looking at most a 6% increase in skeleton level (if the reduction is only 15%) and at worst a 12.5% reduction in skeleton level if it's getting the double penalty like quality is. ![]() We are unsure if level gets reduced by 15% or 30%. We know that quality gets reduced by 30%. There's also the fact that the Ancestral Crypt bonus of +3 HP per soul is actually quite useful and there's absolutely no downside to using Crypt on necro. You can find necklaces without quality that have +4-5 or higher (depending on loop level) skeleton level, but as soon as they also roll quality that plummets to <1 skeleton level always. Also, as I'm sure you've noticed, skeleton quality seems to be an "expensive" stat, that is to say, any piece of gear that has quality always gets a huge penalty to skeleton level, so if you are using 3 pieces of gear with quality on it you will necessarily have a lower skeleton level because of it. With Crypt, this means only 2 items that need quality, whereas you need at least 3 with Arsenal. And while skeleton quality is the least important stat, you still want around 50% at least as the upgraded skeletons are quite good. I mean, it may very well reduce skeleton level by 30% too, it would require more testing. Dont know how you get past the hounds on boss 3 with max skellies because they shredded me over and over until I beefed up the skeletons and dropped their number(or swapped to high enough quality to have a tank out always.) I doubt you're building a tanky necro so it must just be luck, as I don't see any method for how enemies selec targets. Talents probably matter a lot but without splitting damage with skellies or a way to mitigate eventually the necro will be the target and he will take the hits. Not sure how you're not taking damage unless you are running high quality because I def still get hit, and I was having pretty poor talent luck until this last run with crypt. I died to him twice where he was under 30% life(no grove) and I just died because he will slowly chip you away without regen and I did not have the heal on skeleton death talent nor did I get talents for stacking anything. I eventually changed from 8 skellies to 4-5 with 50%+ quality and could kill him consistently, but attack speed + 8 skellies was not working on the hounds as they take 3 hits and go invuln and kill my necro.Ĥth boss was just a slog, and I had no regen so he would slowly chip me down. ![]() I was getting crit for over 900 on loop 10. Those crits hit for a lot even on low loops. I'm unsure if +skeleton level is also being double dip reduced as the range of values possible there is a lot higher so it's more difficult to test, but either way, you shouldn't be using Arsenal on necro-Ancestral Crypt is the way to go.īoss 3, the Hunter would get shredded in 5 seconds, but the dogs would stay in aura and every single time they attacked out of aura it's an autocrit and they always attacked my necro. I did some extensive testing on quality since it has relatively small variance, and found that the quality reduction double dips on skeleton quality, presumably to makeup for +max skeletons not being reduced. In order to compensate for the fact that +max skeletons can't be reduced, skeleton quality will receive a 30% reduction on all gear. It's impossible for gear to roll a fractional +skeleton value, which might make you think that Arsenal is even stronger on the class because +max skeletons will never be reduced, but there's a problem. 85 = 4.25 total quality, which is bigger than 4.īut Necro is special. Normally, Arsenal reduces the quality of your gear by 15%, and on a class like rogue this is a net positive as 5 *. ![]() So Arsenal has a unique interaction with the necro which makes it especially bad to use.
![]() ![]() That kind of decision, about size and placement, depends on what you’re looking for, but it's something you should absolutely work out well in advance. I still think it’s a good idea, but it was going to end up being bigger than I wanted at the time. It would have been complete with the species names and identification arrows. I strongly considered getting a tattoo of something off the gull or tern page (remember, black and white) from my Peterson Field Guide, the first guide I ever owned. So I’d recommend going that route.įor a while there I almost got an actual image from a field guide. They’re literal, and as such, most bird tattoos are also pretty literal. The vast majority of birder tattoos that I know of represent an actual species-some more realistically than others-rather than some generalized bird standing in as a symbol of freedom or something. It’s difficult to offer advice about such a personal choice, but I will say this: Most birders I know would never get any of the first search results that pop up when you Google “ bird tattoo.” Elaborate fake swallow-type things. I bought the original drawing and made an appointment at the tattoo parlor. Plus, I really liked the idea of owning the piece of artwork my tattoo was based on. I do associate them with the rugged waters off my home state of Maine, and I have an amazing memory of seeing thousands of them from a whale-watch boat in the middle of the St. I don’t have any extreme connection with Black-legged Kittiwakes. Realistic? I mean, it’s a sketch, but yes. Sibley sells the original pen-and-ink drawings he created to illustrate his old newspaper column, and a simple drawing of a pair of Black-legged Kittiwakes jumped out at me. Then, in 2015, I was looking at the website of the famous field guide author David Sibley, and I found my tattoo. ![]() I didn’t want to force it, so I sat back and waited years for something to catch my eye. That narrowed things down quite a bit, leaving options like gulls, alcids, the Black-and-white Warbler, and a few other species. I did know that I wanted something black and white-colored tattoos just aren’t my thing-and I wanted something that looked more realistic than artistic. I knew for years that I wanted to get a bird tattoo, but I couldn’t settle on a species or an image. You’re stuck forever with whatever you select, so in hopes of helping you avoid regret, let’s talk through what makes a good bird tattoo. With more than 10,000 species of birds on the planet to choose from, picking your first bird tattoo can be a daunting challenge. The hardest part is: Which species do you pick? (At least we’re not parasitologists or something, right? My goodness.) I wholeheartedly endorse bird tattoos. Lots of us have tattoos of birds, and it doesn’t take a rocket scientists to understand why: People get tattoos of things they love, and, well, we really love birds. However, many members of a certain clan still frequently use body ink to mark their inclusion: birders. Tattoos don’t quite carry the same symbolic weight these days-heck, the public perception of tattooing has even softened in my lifetime, from an act of rebelliousness to something for mom and dads. So roll up those sleeves, get your arm ready, and happy inking.Tattooing has been around for centuries, and for most of that time, it often served as a way to signal people belonged to a particular clan or tribe. And before the process starts, always get a tattoo consultation where you and your artist can fine tune your design so it’s completely unique to you. Start with the ideas on this list of the best arm tattoos for men, and then look for an artist who has done pieces in the same vein that you like (Instagram is your best resource these days). Inspiration can run the gamut, from traditional to modern to abstract to realistic and everything in between. If you’re having a tough time figuring out what you want, this list is here to help. I’m not saying it has to have some sort of deep meaning, but it has to at least be something you’ll want to look at for the rest of your life. That’s okay, a tattoo is not something you necessarily want to take lightly or get on a whim. The permanence of a tattoo can be daunting, especially if it’s your first, which makes choosing the design seem like a near impossible task. Tattoo trends come and go, but no matter what you choose to ink on your arm, make sure you’re in it for the haul. They also offer the opportunity to play with scale-both big, eye-catching and small and subtle tattoos look great on arms. There are wrists, elbows, biceps, shoulder caps-all perfect places for a tattoo. Arms offer a large canvas and a variety of options. ![]() There’s a reason arms have been the preferred canvas for both tattoo artists and enthusiasts for decades (dare we say, centuries?).

With darker color solar shades, it is kind of like looking out though sunglasses, it blocks the glare and sometimes the outward visibility is even better than without the solar screen. Although solar screens may look dark from outside, the outward visibility is maintained. Normally solar screens are made to cover the entire window to achieve the most heat blocking benefits and should be made with Heavy Duty Aluminum Frame instead of standard window screen frame. The difference is that solar screens are designed to block the heat gain that is generated when the sun's heat passes through the glass windows. Solar Screens cover the outside of a window similar to full size standard window screens.
