Changing in a week is not possible.

Let’s say if it was a bad sleeping schedule due to work time, and he tries to quit or change jobs or whatever Might be plausible

But change his problems/attitude in a week Is a bit too far of a stretch The desperation is strong with this one. You already broke up Now off you go to block him as well. Steel your heart, lest you want to be dragged down (again perhaps) into his manipulation



Well as someone who is not born Japanese but married to a Japanese beauty Language is very important as it is your main communication tool after/before/during marriage It’s also a good amount of cultural features. If it’s a fling for you and you don’t see yourself bringing in the effort, do yourself a favor and break things up with her. If you think she’s the one, then do it with all your might.

Most marriages between foreigners and Japanese fail (it’s a pretty high divorce rate) due to lacking verbal communication It doesn’t mean that the Japanese spouse doesn’t speak English. But with showing effort to learn/adjust to something your partner thinks is very important is also a way of communicating to her that you listen to what she is saying and respect her. Perhaps she said it out of frustration or perhaps out of ignorance(22 year is almost still a child nowadays) or she genuinely wanted to give you a push to pick up studying that language again Anyway, you should tell her directly: “honey, I love you and want to learn the language, but saying such harsh words was quite hurtful around our friends. I felt like you didn’t respect me.” Or whatever you wanna tell her Just be open and direct. Don’t leave room for misunderstandings


Well the alternative would be to install something like riots vanguard against cheaters. Which means they’d have access to our data on the pc inadvertently I personally do not mind since I got a gaming set up and a separate work set up. But probably difficult to set up for console or smartphone which is mixed and jumbled up.

During my climb to mythic I encountered 4 cheaters in total. Just reported them and made their IDs public But they had almost no outfits and seemed like unlovingly raised So yeah…







Also, it’s a game that’s free. Did you suffer throughout the whole time just to get enough pulls? Then I respect your dedication to free stuff. Otherwise, it’s for cosmetics. Nothing game breaking or even game making.


I’ve paid and I am on 60% pity. And I also had it happen multiple times twice in a row, as a heavy spender, that I got HC in the last few pulls before pity. It’s gacha after all.



Welcome to MMORPGs That’s quite normal… Even if the level of the chat didn’t change, in world of Warcraft, final fantasy… you’d get higher item level tiers throughout a few months time as well which, lo and behold, meant you had to grind it over and over again. At least in WWM you don’t need to spend hours with the right group just to clear the vicinity and then fight 12 bosses throughout the week.


The pot calling the cattle black… wth is she on? If it was 26 and 18, I’d get that. I’m mid 30, so everyone under 25 is practically a child already. Of c, for fwb it would be fine if she’s “only” 21 but being in a serious relationship is difficult I think. But 25 and 21? That’s almost the same

She jealous perhaps of the younger girl stealing her spotlight?







As a fanbrella user: even if you “lag” just using your charged light attack and keeping your Q’s on cd it should be an easy thing to reach 10k And the transfer from training to actual fight is not as much ping dependent as you think. My ping is sometimes spiking to 120 since I’m like the only Japanese and my teammates are from Singapore or Philippines, and I’m still not seeing that much of an issue.

The ground combo of fanbrella doesn’t go well in every fight. Some fights require you to stay at range and just make it simple. In that case as long as you are not moving from frame to frame you will always be able to put up a decent DPS record.

And as I remember, 2 months ago, just using basic auto attacks with a gear score of 21000 should have yielded in about 9-10.000 DPS anyway in an actual boss fight.


Well you asked for an opinion. Not so much as an achievement in my opinion. That’s all. Reaching mythic is not hard. Getting past 1.8/2k is terribly hard. Even reaching 1.2k can be considered strong.

Playing meta is not a sin. Wanting a golden star for not playing meta is just someone handicapping themselves and wanting to be recognized.

If you want to prove a point, you’d have to push past the threshold of 1.5 k or even just 1.2k maybe?




Also not using stun lock is alright and all but what’s the purpose? It’s like telling people/bragging about taking a dump next to a tree while having a fully functional high tech Japanese automatic toilet at home. That’s… not something to brag about 😓


Without knowledge of your skills or wanting to demotivate you

Reaching mythic at this point in time is just a matter of perseverance. Look, most people who play arena competitively are already mythic since day 1/2/3 or so of the season. So you will have it easier and easier as time goes by. But you do you, enjoy it and be happy that you were able to reach this far!

Go there, take pictures of their house, their faces and all and upload it to SNS. Let the keyboard warriors do the job. Japanese police are sadly not as competent as one would hope... Had a case of some moron tailgating me on a scooter (I had it on the dash cam) and I pulled over at the next possible exit, called police and they said to go to my local Koban. That asshole was following me and parked right in front of my car so I couldn’t move away. After I called the police, put it on loudspeaker and opened windows for him to hear me talking to cops, he drove away very fast. But nothing was done by the police. They had video evidence I showed them. When parked I even took a video and some pictures of that perp. But they just dismissed me cause nothing happened.

Another time a fire happened in our part of town, in one week 3 times. Only after the third time did the police start patrolling the affected mansion complex a bit regularly(was the same all three times). And it happened again. Until now it’s still unknown who did it.



He is not wrong though. You did buy it probably voluntarily?

I’m also a foreigner with a Japanese wife. And being from different cultures and backgrounds is a challenge. I can’t always say that it is the correct decision for every couple to stay together. You gotta understand, even if you as a foreigner adapt to the maximum, she also needs to adapt quite a lot and perhaps faced with the reality now at hand, got cold feet.

But the point is, Japanese people are very specific. There is a very scary thin line between pushing too much and pushing not hard enough Almost non existent line… you got to feel it, it’s practically torture


You will get about 20-30% of the buying price. Funny thing, I had a coworker trying to sell his ring in Ueno not long ago bought from van cleef and it was bought for 1.300.000¥ and he was offered about 400,000¥ in average. If it is a highly limited edition it might yield more than 30% but that’s not likely with Tiffany since most of their products are overly expensive due to the name attached to a mediocre design The price comes like 70% from the name And only about 20-30 % from the material value


Just get it. I am focusing on a few inner ways and I still got booklets to spare. So exchanging them doesn’t yield any benefits since even if I do exchange them, the booklets just keep accumulating. So just get it to t6 and get it over with for yourself 😂




If you can’t handle the steam, don’t post this on Reddit, dude. I can brag getting to my thing with 90 won matches and what’s the point of it? Sorry but reaching mythic is not the hard part, so you gotta understand that most people who are active enough in the game and on Reddit won’t see it as a challenge.

But good for you though 👍🏼




Also, after you bought it, can you keep up with purchases like the former owner when new content is released? There is not much meaning to buying a sports car if you can’t even pay the fuel, insurance and tax. Those accounts will be left in the wind by other whales who continue to use real money for their accounts. It’s like paying 1k$ just to have the same view as the whales for a short moment.


Most people put it online for 1k but sell it for 500 or a bit more after a quick reality check. Bought accounts ALWAYS carry the risk of the owner getting it back. They just had to say to the support “I lost access, here are credit card statements of purchases over the years” and they regain access. Since I started gacha/moba games a decade ago I often heard of such stories.



It might not be that it is “losing players”. How many games have I bought, played for 20 hours and never touched again.

Also, an MMORPG has up and downtimes. Currently there is not much to do. There are not that many tasks to work on. The first 30-40 days I played multiple hours a day. Now I am logging in for 30-60 minutes to do my daily routine stuff. After playing tons of MMORPGs for decades you get a feel for it. There were times in world of Warcraft where I logged in only during raid hours over the span of months. Once new areas or dungeons and task open, you’ll see the numbers rising up again.




Working out or not, that’s your personal preference. If you are seen as a lecherous person who annoys the female sex with your way of talking, then that’s not bad luck, buddy, that’s just a bad attitude perhaps.

If you just want sex, higher a prostitute. If it is illegal in your country, come to Japan. We got great such services to offer ;)

Don’t go fishing for sex. Go fishing for a good time. Let’s put it this way: sex is a consequence of 2 people on the same wavelength having a great time. If you come across as someone who just wants sex, then women will avoid you. Let the woman talk. Hear her out. See if you have something in common. If you have a hobby, try joining groups with similar interests. Or start something new that always interested you and join a group. I love my job, and I met the woman who is now my wife at something like a learning seminar I went to voluntarily because I wanted to deepen my knowledge.

Also, going to the gym and having confidence is nice, but it sounds to me like you are forcing it too much. I saw people getting kicked out of bars for molesting. But because of “too much flirting”, that alone should be a red flag for you.



Exactly. I played world of Warcraft for like 10 years, final fantasy 14 and tons of other MMORPGs and at some point you “run out” of new content until the next major update. I remember at one extension I started later than others and was simply overwhelmed with sudden changes just due to being out of the loop for 1 or 2 major patches.

Point is, content for players who invest a lot of time to a game will always run dry at some point. That is the beauty of it. You are able to reach a point of becoming “content” with your position. Either by your own will or you are forced to be, haha That gives you time for other stuff. Which is a good thing. I hope at least we can agree on that



Gacha is part of the fun. As long as it is not something that can not be bought/farmed again (event exclusive stuff) having endgame accounts nowadays won’t sell for much. I saw people spending like 10k and selling for 500-1000 or less. There is always someone who will spend more than you. If it is not THE #1 account, most likely you will get like 5-10% if what you spend on that game at most. The more you wait the more the price will go down if you don’t put in the effort to keep it up to date and progress further.



It is not actual fact. Because there was new content. I don’t know what exactly you expect for it to be called “a major update”. New regions, even if they are “only top left side of the second map” as well as for example the new 9MW base, the new quest lines that were added as well as the breakthroughs. I think it is fine to bring out content steadily, even if a bit slow. I don’t understand what the “demerit” is if there is enough to do. Giving people time to adjust to changes/upgrades.

Also, the cosmetics are fun. Checking out the different sects. Hell, playing mahjong or other mini games as well.

Like I said before, if you cleared every available content to 100% or near 100% and mastered your character/weapon and so on, great for you! That’s like having a billion dollars and being annoyed that you have to much money. But that is the vast minority. I haven’t met anyone yet you cleared all content. You perhaps reached a point where you feel content with your position, but if new content comes out you’ll just rush through it and be in the same situation.

Saying to me: “not everyone needs to wait for you just because you started late” (which I never said I wished for) is the same as people like you being told: “not everyone will rush through content like you did”

All I am saying is, to me there seems to be enough content available. As a content creator, I’d be happier seeing people appreciating what is given (especially for free) Though I am happy to see people asking for more content at the same time since it is a sign that what was given til now is well liked



You completed all trials, all achievements there are as well? Journal at 100%(or as close as it can possibly get), compendium full, Got all the old friends completed? All abyss trial challenges wrapped up? All weapons to level 80? All mystic skills at T4 maxed out, min maxed gear and got perception forest as well as arena to mythic level? If the answer is yes, then congratulations! You’ve won the game! I got people in my guild with double the time played as me and less than half exploration points Dunno if playing since day 1 means that everyone who started back then is at the same point as you


I started playing a month ago, so between leveling up different weapons (finally got my 4th weapon to 80…) and finishing all trials, getting arena to mythic, working on perception forest, playing GvG, completing the journal… I’m a worker with a somewhat healthy private life and a wife. You tell me all of you got the compendium and journal to 100% completion yet? All trials finished, gathered enough resources, have perfected your gear, became friends status with all of the old friends…? I understand, it might be that, if you are playing the game as much as a full time worker goes to work, you would have a 100% completion rate, but trust me, most people don’t have that much time on their hands.


Chill, game is out 2 months or so In china 1 year We are already at a good point. Having too much new content out at the same time is not a good thing. This way, there is time to get yourself adjusted before new options are available


You can reforge certain weapon skins so the optic changes That is one reforge system I can think of

The other would be perhaps you can change the set. There is a small icon next to the set name on an item which allows you to change the set to a different one




Get the mount from the shop that has a skill button for gathering automatically. I finish my route in about 10-20 minutes with that horse. Just go to the center of a marked area for plants, stones and stuff, and press the ability button of the horsie



Totally natural. Doesn’t your hair curve like this in real life as well? Well, then again, it might be due to your hair not being this long so you wouldn’t know. Can’t blame a fella for something he has never experienced himself












Max out monthly membership, for each month you get 90k 😂 I am currently at 200 days (waited until my membershipd duration is down to 179 days, then buying it again. Max you can have is 180 days. ) And still not enough gold 😭😂😂




PvP Mythic - Help please. Stunlock combo
PvP Mythic - Help please. Stunlock combo

I just climbed to mythic and I see people using the same stunlock combo over and over again, but I couldn’t find a decent YouTube video of how exactly to do that. With the toad and whatsoever.

I managed to somehow get to mythic in about 100something matches but I get totally busted in mythic now since everyone seems to know about the same 1 combo. (Playing vernal, ink fan)

I notice it’s including the toad. That’s all I understand. Anyone has a good source for some advice there? I’d appreciate it a lot







“Big impact”? Nonsense. It is temporary at most. At some point when you have maxed out the inner ways, you’ll no longer need to care anyway. It’s not a limited resource stacking infinitely. So no need for FOMO Only thing time gives you is a head start but the finish line is for everyone the same. See this as a marathon instead of a sprint and you’re doing fine


What I did: i first reset the moral chant notes, then recycle those moral chant notes! Just do that until you are maxed out on one of the inner ways you really don’t want Afterwards just exchange whatever you don’t need but yields the highest number of moral chant notes. At that point you might even have 0 moral chants and swapping with for example 200 seasonal edge ones.



It is a normal setting I believe, where you get a small info somewhere displayed telling you that your current hairstyle doesn’t go with the head accessories or so and switching your hairstyle automatically


Which data exactly? The netease one? And you want to connect steam to it?

I am not sure but there might be an “account deletion” option in the log in menu (where you input your email) and then you should be able to connect via the settings menu

If you are unsure, you can always hope the support will help you if you explain it to them

Don’t upload it here, what if someone sees it and wants to steal it!? Let me help you, I can keep it safe for the next 2 weeks until the commotion dies down ;)







What I don’t understand is, if i use fan and umbrella, my damage should be silkbind. Why do i care about 50 or even 500 damage in stonesplit, bamboo or whatever? How do i profit from those types of damage when I don’t use their respective weapons?


Well you can not do stuff that uses up energy, but what about challenging abyss content? Like trials? What about achievements? You can even go fishing. Gather herbs. In the near future you could also level a second chat. Though the option was deactivated shortly after being released a few days ago, I think it might pop up soon. So you can do all the grinding with 2 chars.

I mean, yeah you can not get unlimited chest 24/7 and min/max your char in a single day. I wish I could do that. But I think the concept of time gating and limiting stuff like this gives us a chance to appreciate the other parts of the game that we might miss out on due to grinding one part of it non-stop.



Well, imagine this: Healing wouldn’t be reduced. You can just negate all damage taken with one heal. You get beaten silly, parry/dodge 1 out of 5 strikes or even less, and finish every encounter first try on legend difficulty since 1 skill can be used to heal yourself to 100% again. I think that would be totally unfair towards the DPS class players who have a limited amount of potions to spend.

My opinion: you could do more than enough damage as a healer if you parry well. Since it feels like 80% of all damage is anyway stealth through execution and for that, you need to dodge and parry well. And for the normal mobs, martial skills are doing like 90% of the work for me easily.


Because it just feeds into your own ego. It doesn’t change gameplay, make you or your character stronger or better. Pay to win would be: “I can get the item I want by spending money!” Pay to win is like spending money to buy yourself into medical school and then paying money to graduate What the people do with buying that for pearls is more like just paying to get a fancy title or something.

I imagine, many guilds do or will in the future probably have as a requirement “clear at least X out of all of the abyss trials fully cleared” or all of them or something like that. But the thing is, afterwards the people who bought it and earned it will be easy to differentiate. In general, that should be the case.



It’s the clones in general, once they start a hit combo, even if deflected successfully, they continue on until they finish their whole combo. Doesn’t need to be the last of the 4, can happen generally will almost each one of them.

River master disappeared for me as well once he was exhausted. I couldn’t use execute since he just sidesteps suddenly out of the map. I also had a big once where I was outside the map. Murong killed me even outside the map while I was unable to hit her 😓

They are beatable, if worst comes to worst, you can always be patient and try getting assist from another player.



When you try to participate you will be asked first if you want to do only first boss, if you want to fill in or start with a new group. Before choosing your role as DPS, Heal or Tank I think this is now instead what you mean




Dunno man, it feels to me you are making a bit of a scene out of something you are saying is not a big deal at all. If you are having a heart condition, shouldn’t you abstain from alcohol? Well, that’s your problem to solve.

But I don’t get what the big deal is here. To me it sounds like you are too proud to just let her to what she wants to do. If you are missing out on the money, just explain to her that you‘d be fine with the situation but that you‘d have to move away from where you live now and stuff like that. If your situation is not changing, then what exactly is the problem?

How did you manage to stay a couple for 12 years?

Seriously What is the point in that? My wife quit her job as well, we didn’t need the money and she tried being a traditional wife as well, but soon noticed she wasn’t cut out for it and now has a nice job as a manager in the tourism and travel department Some months she earns more than me. But that’s not the point She supports me through and through, but I can function alone as well, she is the same. We help each other cause we love each other. Have you ever stopped for a moment and just indulged yourself in her care? Just give it a chance. A couple so fragile as the two of you seems highly unlikely to live happily ever after. Looking out for each other as well as supporting each other and accepting whatever decision the other one makes as long as it doesn’t hurt the family should be a given. Ask her in the first place about her job. Perhaps there are some deciding factors she couldn’t tell you since you seem unwilling to put yourself in her shoes for a minute. All I got from your story is: you are not able to work 100%(?) though drinking alcohol seems to be fine enough while being unsure on how much time you have left in this life (?) and you are not in need of the money but you are too proud to let her do what she wants to. Look behind what she offers: food, care and sex. Why is she explaining it that way? What lies behind that front? She might be manipulative, but I am sure that’s not the first time she did that. And why did that not bother you until now? You are admitting that you are not accepting her choice and showing it openly, so how do you expect her to be? I don’t really understand a lot of points from your story. So she quit her job, you were not happy about it and let her feel it from the start already and expect her to still do her duties while you are not accepting any attempts of reconciliation because from your point of view it is only manipulation? Yeah, in that case you shouldn’t be surprised that divorce is the only way here…
