![]() When he runs up to salvage whatever he can, he conveniently does so right in front of a big open window. Shooting the guards and the panel they were tinkering with caused the fire sprinklers to malfunction in the building below, drenching all of the materials in Zarza’s office. At this same site, men are working on a building’s cooling system on the roof. You can make your own opportunities as well if you’re particularly observant. ![]() You can catch Zarza while he’s out in the open for a clean shot, or you can clip a nearby explosive as he passes by. These can all play into the various ways you can execute the target. On top of the guards, I found plenty of other objects to shoot, like cranes suspending heavy loads and lighting placements. Play The shooting perch for the first target, enemy weapons dealer Antwan Zarza, required a version of the same sort of recon, with a few more wrinkles. A flying drone also helps scout areas from a bird’s eye view, making sure you never miss enemies hiding out in those hard to reach places. My favorite so far is the automated sniper turret that you can set up to snipe marked targets on your command, allowing you to be your own cover fire. ![]() Some of your accessories and support tech really do stand out, though. Being outnumbered by enemies, who fight fiercely and intelligently to bring you down, is a harrowing experience the AI puts up a fierce challenge. The running and gunning feels competent and familiar, but bullets do feel a bit more lethal here than other shooters. Sniping is where it’s at in Contracts 2, as the name implies. When they do spot you and the time to go loud arises, the standard military shooter arsenal of shotguns, automatic rifles, and grenades neither disappoints or overly impresses. Stealth is an option in these more intimate scenarios, but without being able to see things like view cones on your mini map, it can be tough to know at what range an enemy can spot you at. Eliminating enemies in these checkpoints can be a good way to ensure they don’t become reinforcements that get called should something go wrong later. The locals might have some valuable information about their comrades in arms that you can interrogate out of them. Potential intel about the target ahead can be just a laptop hack away. The long way is often the safer way, but there are plenty of benefits to poking around these outposts. Marking them not only puts their position in your HUD, but it also gives you their relative distance and enemy type, if applicable.įrom there, you have two options: attempt to stealthily circumvent the road blockades or bases that spot the mountain range, or tear through them. Using the binoculars, you can scan points of interest like enemy soldiers, exploding barrels, or fuse boxes. This largely meant I was crouch-walking from bush to bush, looking for high cliffs and perches to get a proper lay of the land between me and my destination. First, I had to navigate through mountain paths and past guard patrols to get to the sniping position. My journey through Zindah had a reliable rhythm. In my hands-on, I got to get down and dirty in the desert region of Zindah Province, where three bad guys needed to be terminated with extreme prejudice. ![]() The sequel spices up the formula a bit, emphasizing the “long” in long range by creating huge maps specifically designed for making tough shots from great lengths. Contracts 2 picks up where the first left off, putting you in the shoes of stoic operator Raven and dropping you into exotic locations with a list of names to cross off, one shot at a time. ![]() ![]() ![]() The tooltip "'Quiver in fear!'" is a pun using the term "quiver" as a verb, meaning to shake or vibrate rapidly. What does the endless quiver do in Terraria The Endless Quiver is a Hardmode item that acts as ammunition, and can be placed in the ammo slots in the player's inventory.Crafting the Molten Quiver requires the Magma Stone which is a melee-specific accessory, while the Molten Quiver is a ranged-specific accessory.It can still be useful when paired with the Endless Quiver, although the ammo conservation bonus is wasted on the latter.The only advantage this item has over the Magic Quiver is rather dubious, as by Hardmode most players have better alternatives to Wooden Arrows.The bonus to arrow damage stacks with the Magic Quiver and Stalker's Quiver, but the other effects do not.Aerial Bane, Phantom Phoenix, etc.), as long as Wooden Arrows are used as ammunition. However, the +2 damage bonus is applied when using any of the other bows which convert any type of arrow into special projectiles (e.g. This is because their conversion takes place first, and the projectile is no longer considered a Wooden Arrow afterward and hence will not be recognized by the Molten Quiver. The +2 damage bonus is not applied when using the Eventide, The Bee's Knees, or the Hellwing Bow, which convert Wooden Arrows into special projectiles on their own.The conversion from Wooden Arrows (5 base damage) to Flaming Arrows (7 base damage) results in a base damage bonus of +2. ![]() ![]() The items, most of the time, have to be the same type and. You will need to grind 20 Luneshine weapons to complete level 1 of the Grinder challenge required for the Challenger trophy.Ģ Orange Guns + 1 Purple Gun = Orange of same type as the Purple when grinding with Moonstones.ģ White items = Green - Can be White if grinded without Moonstones.ģ Green items = Blue - Can be Green if grinded without Moonstones.ģ Blue items = Purple - Can be Blue if grinded without Moonstones.ģ Purple items = Purple and a chance for an Orange - Can not be grinded with Moonstones.ģ Purple Grenade Mods can turn into an Orange Grenade Mod,ģ Purple Shields = Shield - Should be a chance for an Orangeģ purple class mods grinded with moonstones is a gaurenteed legendary class mod. Using the Grinder is simple, you put in 3 items, press the grind button, then get out a new item. For example, please consider the recipes list for entries noted Moonstone grinds are not possible with grinds using Claptastic Voyage legendaries that limits certain types of input. You can also receive Luneshine bonuses on your weapons to gain bonus rolls on your gun such as 10% critical bonus, XP bonus, Shield bonuses etc. No not always - that’s partly what the output recipes are about. Also worth noting, if you use Moonstones it all but guarantees your weapon will move up to the next rarity. So the Grinder got 15 new recipes which include a way to get Legendary items for Shields/Grenades/O2 Kits Subscribe. Example: 3 level 50's are guaranteed to be a 50, 2 Level 50's and a 49 will be a 49 and 2 48's and a 49 will be a 48, a 48, 49 and 50 will be a 49. When grinding weapons, the level of the 3 weapons will determine the level of the weapon you get in return. Heads, Skins, Excalibastard and Loyalty items can not be used in the Grinder so don't even try. ![]() ![]() After you have completed the requirements and return to springs she will give you 3 guns to grind and this trophy will pop after you do your first grind. Along with a terrific new moon setting that lets you play around with gravity, elements that you can apply to weapons for different effects and all-new co-op features, the game provides hours of shoot-em-up fun for casual players and Borderlands fanatics. To use the grinder you will need to finish the side mission given by Janey Springs in Concordia called "Grinders". 2K Games’ Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel has plenty to offer. Some basic grinder principles and recipes along with a website listed below that is super helpful in coming up with grinding combinations. ![]() ![]() ![]() Also allows the current household's mailbox to be shift-clicked for more debug cheats, such as 'Make everyone know me'.

Then reload the game, turn aging back on, and see if you can force the age transition. I believe what the old post recommended, although I could be wrong, is to go into game options and extend the toddler age range by one day, then turn aging off, then quit.Sometimes a custom content item can prevent a sim from aging up properly, so it's best to change everything to vanilla (non-cc) content.

![]() ![]() The liberal arts format leads to the discovery of new interests, and frequently this discovery blossoms into a major or minor. Lawrence’s rather flexible curriculum for my discovery of mokuhanga-despite being a religious studies major, my dabbling in some art courses was not only possible but encouraged. From talking to friends, this seems to be a common theme among SLU students. Her artwork can also be seen online here. With tons of connections in the mokuhanga world, a world of experience and accompanying stories, and answers to each of the (many) questions we have about the deceptively tricky process, she holds open the gate to mokuhanga for new students every year. She’s a true link to the source, as she’s made several printmaking pilgrimages to Japan and brings us as close to a Tokyo printmaking workshop as one can get in the United States. The quiet thrill of a perfect carve is accompanied by the ever-present confidence provided by our printmaking professor, Melissa Schulenberg. The dual requirement of precision and creativity demanded it all, and my brain was completely fine with this required level of concentration because, simply put, it was fun! But with mokuhanga…hours flew by as I sat by a block of wood, slowly transforming its surface into a piece of a printmaking puzzle. As with many students, the whirlwind of academic-social-homesick college-ness hit me early and hard, and by my second semester, I was finding it nearly impossible to bring my focus down to a single thing for longer than a few minutes. Each step requires complete attention, something that is hard to come by on a college campus. As our professor always points out, the water-based inks and small list of supplies makes for the perfect at-home art form-it could be done on your kitchen table!ĭespite a rewarding final product, it’s the process that gives mokuhanga its charm. Ultra-clean lines are produced by the cut of a carver’s knife into Japanese shina plywood, and the colors are transferred from the carved blocks to paper via means of a “human printing press:” your own arm becomes the device pressing block to paper, eliminating the need for a heavy, expensive printing press. ![]() To make a short story shorter, I enrolled in a course on mokuhanga without having any prior experience in art, and in a few hours of class time, I was in love with this style of Japanese printmaking. I’ve known and admired this print for years, but since landing myself in a Japanese printmaking course here at SLU, the piece has become near and dear to my heart and represents my favorite part of my St. The image decorates dorm walls, has made its way onto a Pink Floyd drum set, and even inspired the Quiksilver clothing brand logo. Undoubtedly the most famous work of Japanese printmaking, many are already familiar with Hokusai’s “Under a Wave off Kanagawa,” often known simply as “The Great Wave” (see this blog’s first picture for reference). Fuji watches silently from the background, subtle and stable in the midst of this raging ocean scene. A fishing boat, small enough to miss, is suspended in the frothy jaws of a monstrous wave, moments away from the water’s crash. ![]() ![]() ![]() If we had to complain about something with this set, we would have wished for a better clear plastic display used to allow the ring to remain upright with Obi-Wan’s starfighter locked into place. There is a great deal to appreciate here for sure. Even the portion where Obi-Wan’s starfighter docks into it is unbelievably designed and astonishingly decorated. And not only is the color palette endless, you’ll need to spend hours appreciating all of the geometric designs and shapes that are strewn throughout the circumference of the ring. (Be sure to check out our close-up shots in our photo gallery.) Hasbro didn’t “cheap out” on us at all with the amount of color they decided to include. The paint job on both the “ring” and vehicle are exhilarating. And while the Hyperspace Ring is not invincible to bending (it’s slightly pliable), it’s stronger than many other exclusives we have seen before and after it. The Hyperspace Ring is solid and weighty and will certainly sustain its shape over time. While Hasbro tends to skimp out on strong and quality plastics on many of their toys, the complete opposite is true here. Nothing new here, right? The star of this exclusive is obviously the Hyperspace Ring itself and if you can manage to give it a chance, we believe you will be thoroughly impressed. It is colored in a maroon and white and has various accents like gray and yellow to help change things up a bit. There is a non-removable R4-P17 head and an opening canopy. Little to nothing new is included here save for a repaint of the vehicle, but as cool as this starfighter is, it’s obviously not the reason to purchase this exclusive. If you have previous versions of Obi-Wan’s Jedi Starfighter, then you really know what to expect here. ![]() There are a ton of fine details on the Hyperspace Ring itself and it’s quite brilliant how Hasbro managed to capture them all on this scale. The Obi-Wan’s Starfighter With Hyperspace Ring is extremely well-developed and has an extraordinarily beautiful paint job. And this enables us to thoroughly enjoy the collectibles Hasbro makes for us from this film. In fact, we have developed a stronger appreciation for the film each year we get further and further from it’s original 2002 release. ![]() This is a film that just isn’t loved as much by fans as the others. We sort of attribute it's lack of success due to the fact that it is sourced to Star Wars Episode II: Attack Of The Clones. Unfortunately, this exclusive didn’t seem to entice most collectors. We may have gotten the Jedi starfighter multiple times in the line and they never seem to lose their luster, but the Hyperspace Ring made the vehicle so much cooler. And while Hasbro did indeed squeeze quite a few exclusives our way before jumping into The Legacy Collection on July 26, 2008, the one product that took the cake was definitely the Hyperspace Ring. This exclusive was available at Toys R Us stores in the second quarter of 2008, just about the time the 30 (77-07) line was heading out and collectors would sustain a long period of “nothing new” in the basic figure line until that summer. Probably one of the most underrated exclusive vehicles Hasbro ever made for us is the Obi-Wan’s Starfighter With Hyperspace Ring. ![]() ![]() ![]() Voice lines: $3.49 per line every month (Regulatory Programs $0.50 Telco Recovery $2.99).The Telco Recovery component helps defray costs and charges imposed on us by other carriers for delivery of calls from our customers to theirs and for certain network facilities (e.g., leases), operations, and services we obtain to provide you with service. ![]()
