title: Which galaxies in Super Mario Galaxy 2 are borrowed from previous Mario games?

text: I've noticed some of the galaxies seem to be from previous Mario games - Honeyhop (Super Mario Galaxy), Throwback (Super Mario 64) and Twisty Trials (Super Mario Sunshine) Galaxies. Are there any other galaxies that have been reused? Specifically, please list all galaxies, and which Mario game they come from.


title: What does "Inspire Loyalty" actually do?

text: I'm playing as a Zabrak, whose social ability is "Inspire Loyalty". When I use it the target ally is either "Feeling patriotic" if it works or "Not feeling it" if it fails. What does this "feeling" do for them? Does it temporarily increase stats in any way, or have some other effect?


title: How does Wrath of the Lamb change the Binding of Isaac?

text: I'm evaluating whether or not I should get this rather cheap DLC and I've boiled it down to the two following questions. I'll draw the conclusions myself.   * **Does the DLC change the game forever?** Is it rather an option at launch or in the settings screen? I know Steam doesn't normally allow you to 'hide' the fact you have DLC purchased for a game.   * **How does the difficulty change?** Is the game with the DLC objectively harder, easier or just "randomer" than the "vanilla" game is? Is it meant to be a "new-game-plus" content pack for the players who've seen everything from the game?


title: HAV Operation Dust 514

text: Is there any reason to train HAV operation above skill level one? This unlocks the only HAVs shown in the market. I have read about other tanks, but I cannot find them. Does this have any benefits?


title: What code do I have to input at the end of You Have to Win the Game?

text: At the end of the game _You Have to Win the Game_ , a code needs to be entered to win. I have already found the secret word: > **VXSHU** and the secret symbol > Apparently a **3** rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise I tried inputting the secret word directly and applying ROT13 and then inputting it, and neither worked. So, what is the code and how am I supposed to figure it out?


title: Are the chances between the Portable Slots and the Slot Machine different?

text: I just found an item called Portable Slots, which allowed me to use it (with `spacebar`) any number of times (regardless of charges), but it took a coin on every use, like the normal slot machine. I used it something like fifteen times and only won something about three times, which seems substantially worse than the normal Slot Machine. Are the odds when using the Portable Slots different than the normal Slot Machine?

Ideally I want to have a switch that turns the whole thing off. What would be the best way to go about this. Resources are no problem.

text: I accidentally launched Steam's mobile app the other day, and it gave me a chance to register for push notifications about ongoing sales. Thing is, there are quite a few sales going on right now, and I haven't been getting any notifications. Do I need to keep the application open in the background in order to get these notifications?

title: Skyrim PS3 vs 360 Load Times

text: I would like to pick up a copy of Skyrim today but am undecided if I should get it on PS3 or 360. IGN says that the 360 load times are lengthy and frequent and unfortunately their PS3 review is not up as they don't have a copy to review. Does anyone have first hand experience with the load times on both platforms?

title: Should I farm Sudden Insight with "Talk to the Porters"?

text: I'm investigating the murder of the Senior Reader in `_______`, and I have the storylet "Talk to the Porters" available, which yields Sudden Insights. Since I've never seen anywhere else in the game any other place where you can easily farm any Advantage, I wonder if I should farm a lot of them before going on with the story, or if there will be similar opportunities at higher levels, so that I don't need to do it now. I'm a bit unconfortable with too-powerful actions:   * in part I fear using too-powerful actions/weapons/combos might make the game unfun   * in part just pretending they aren't there is quite arbitrary and unfun too _(this reminds me of Symphony of the Night, which despite being one of the best games I've ever played, it is so easy I had to play it without any armor or protection)_

text: My account on Xbox live says that I haven't gotten the "Vanilla Crazy Cake" Achievement but I actually have completed the achievement and when I load up Portal and look at the achievements in the game it says I have completed it. Is there a way to get my Xbox live account to "see" the achievement? If not can I delete the achievement in the game and do it again to see if it gets "seen" by my live account?


title: In Dragon Age II, Hawke is no longer dealing damage and only getting "Missed" or "Resisted"?

text: This is incredibly frustrating, but Hawke is no longer dealing damage. I'm towards the end of the game and don't want to start over. I've switched out weapons, armor, etc. everything I could think of. I tried using the cheat in the developer console to bring Hawke to a level 2 warrior and then use cheats to get him back up (to a level 22), but doing this wipes out my inventory. I have a known good save where he last worked, but I'm at a loss how to integrate this Hawke to my last autosave. I found a Dragon's Age Origins saved file editor, but using it corrupted my file (it would say you need a DLC to use the saved file when I try to load). Any other ideas? Anyone have this happen? It apears Hawke can still stun enemies, just not inflict any damage. All other party members work fine.


title: What Kind of Miis can I use to defeat the mummy ghost in Find Mii 2?

text: I am currently on Find Mii 2. There is a part where there are 2 enemies: an armored ghost and a mummy ghost. There is one problem: any person I streetpass gets caught off guard and flees! Is there a specific type of Mii that I need to use to defeat this mummy ghost to get it out of the way?


title: Skyrim Fortify Smithing Option does not appear

text: Im playing as a Khajit, and went around collecting all I need to create Fortify Smithing potions. However, when I try to create a potion, the Fortify Smithing Option does not appear. I've never created potions this far, so I guess I'm missing out on something. I've leveled 100 in Archery and Sneak etc, but never used any spells this far. Do I need to level up in Alchemy to create potions? How does this work?


title: Is it still possible to play Warcraft 2 on Battle.net?

text: Warcraft 2 isn't for sale anymore on Blizzard's store, but I would like to play the Battle.net version. Is it still playable on Battle.net, or is online play no longer supported?


title: World bosses and rare spawns: static or random?

text: I noticed while levelling yesterday that in the Kun-Lai Summit region of Pandaria, the Sha of Hatred was wandering around just north of the Eastery Rest. It seemed to walk around in a large circle, very much like a pre-defined path for the several hours I was in the zone completing quests. In addition to seeing this big hulking monster, it seemed like the rare/champion enemies we ran into while levelling were scattered quite consistently over the landscape, resulting in us getting the 'Can we find more like that?' achievement for killing them all. This lead me to thinking, are the rare spawns and world boss spawns pre- defined for specific parts of the world, or are they randomly generated, leaving all of my observations down to being the first through the zone with all the spawns up?


title: Are Dwemer constructs vulnerable to shock magic?

text: I explore Dwemer ruins for soul gems, so am interested in any vulnerabilities that spiders/spheres/centurions might have. In many games, "robot" enemies are vulnerable to shock; does that apply in _Skyrim_?


title: How do I make mud?

text: So I have been trying to make mud, but it just isn't working. Could someone give me a quick guide to making mud? ps: I noticed there is an existing question about farming with buckets, but it doesn't quite answer my question.

title: How do I defeat FFXIII's final boss?

text: I'm walking in with Lightning (COM), Vanille (RAV/SAB/MED) and Snow (RAV/SEN) and am simply getting pummeled, especially when Orphan comes out of stagger. How do I keep myself from grinding for hours to finish this game? Is it too late (or even necessary) at this point to backtrack to Gran Pulse for some character development?


title: Where are the faction quartermasters?

text: Along with the addition of a new island in Mists of Pandaria, a variety of new factions have also been added;   * Anglers   * August Celestials   * Brewmasters   * Cloud Serpents   * Golden Lotus   * Klaxxi   * Lorewalkers   * Shado-Pan   * Tillers   * Wrathion (The Dark Prince) Do all of the above factions actually have a quartermaster? If so, where are the faction quartermasters located for each of these new factions?


title: Cross realm zones?

text: It was announced that along with the release of Mists of Pandaria, many zones throughout the world of Azeroth would become cross realm zones, allowing players from multiple realms to quest in the same zone, cross realm. This means that when players enter a zone, they will be able to see players from other realms and can party up with these players within these zones. Is there a list of which zones are in fact cross realm? Are players only included in a cross realm zone if they're level appropriate for the zone? Are realms from different regions included in cross realm zones? Are there any other known restrictions or limitations to the system?


title: What will I miss if I skip Pokemon Black/White and go onto Pokemon Black 2/White 2?

text: I was going to buy Pokemon Black/White however I wondered if I should just skip to Black 2/White 2. As far as story goes... well its a Pokemon game not a novel most of the storys in game are just there to hold things together. Anyway will I be missing anything _important_ if I skip to Black/White?


title: Where are the Pandora engine and rudder tuning crates?

text: In X3 Albion Prelude, you can find crates containing engine and rudder, collecting which can overtune your ship, increasing its speed and handling far beyond what is normally possible for a given model. Where can I find them? If they are random, is there a trick to locating them, like the BBS of X3 TC?


title: How Powerful is Mind Control?

text: In FTL, Mind Control (MC) level 1 is fine and dandy, and it is what I use almost exclusively. However, Mind Control levels 2 and 3 claim to increase HP and power.   * Do higher levels of MC last longer?   * How much bonus HP is a MC'd unit given, and does it last after MC wears off?   * How much bonus damage/power is a MC'd unit given?   * Is it worth these higher levels of MC very often?

title: What use does Pre-war Money have in Fallout 3?

text: Pre-war Money has a base value of 10 caps in Fallout 3, and a weight of 0. Obviously, it's a good thing to collect and trade in for caps. Are there any NPCs who value Pre-war Money more than the average merchant? Or, really, is there any use for Pre-war Money besides just selling it to a regular merchant?

title: Does my equipment's effectiveness degrade with the durability score?

text: In _Star Wars: The Old Republic_ , all my gear has a durability score which ticks down towards zero until my stuff is broke and doesn't work. If my equipment is down to, say, 20% durability, is it less effective than equipment at 100% durability, or is it more like hit points where you're at full strength until you fall over dead? Do repair costs scale linearly, or is there a penalty for deferred maintenance?


title: RetroArch - Can I switch GBC core from gambatte to mednafen?

text: So I've been playing GBC games on my Raspberry Pi using the RetroPie OS. More specifically, I've been playing Shantae using RetroArch's GBC emulator. When I found out that certain features are only available on the Game Boy Advance, I moved the save file to my PC and loaded it into RetroArch. I'm trying to load my old save file on a GBA core so that I can get the exclusive content, but I can't seem to use any core other than Gambatte. If I load the Mednafen-VBA core and then load the game, it either automatically loads Gambatte (If I use Detect Core) or Shantae doesn't appear in the list of available games (If I use Mednafen VBA-M). Is it possible to force this file to play under a GBA core and access the hidden content? Failing that, is there any way to apply cheat codes to a GBC game using RetroArch? I was only able to find cheat codes for RetroArch's PSX emulator. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/KtBYLm.png)


title: Why don't StarCraft's nukes have a larger blast radius?

text: Why are nuclear bombs are so weak in StarCraft? The scale of the explosion and the amount of damage done seems very limited compared to what is commonly associated with nukes. Should I understand the in-game buildings and units as vast cities and large armies, or can nukes really be that small?


title: I can't get arrested in Whiterun

text: In Skyrim, when I get arrested in Whiterun, the loading screen won't load and I have to restart my game. Is it because I killed the guards in the jail? I need help! Could I get arrested in another Imperial town, and then would they stop trying to arrest me in Whiterun?


title: Is there an army tank in any of the GTA 2 multiplayer maps?

text: Me and some friends have started playing GTA 2 multiplayer. To get edge on them I've been looking around for the army tank. I know where they are in singleplayer, but I haven't been able to find them in multiplayer so far. **Is there an army tank in any of the GTA2 multiplayer maps?**


title: Why do I keep seeing Lightning as a Ravager, when she's a Commando?

text: I've been looking for information on Lightning's role. I'm only about halfway through the game, but I was under the impression you had to buy Lightning in order to play with her. I keep seeing YouTube videos of her fighting as a Ravager, but when I purchased and won her character, she's only a Commando. How do I unlock the Ravager role for Lightning?


title: How to counter widow mine

text: I just started playing HotS and in my first Protoss game was caught by opponents widow mine. I assume that if I had observers I would see them... but they still would kill my army. What is the proper way to counter widow mines by Protoss and by other races? Any ideas are welcome!


title: Are +X physical damage/armor modifiers already included in the final rating?

text: Let's say I have a claw that has 50 physical damage. It has a modifier of +10 physical damage. Does that make the final physical damage rating 60 or does the rating of 50 already include the +10? Same question for armor.


title: How can I predict whether I will be able to take on a specific enemy or group?

text: I know in many other MMORPGs, it is standard for health bars or other parts of an enemy's information to be marked in different colors depending on how difficult that encounter will be. Is there any similar system for The Secret World? I noticed that the enemy's name can vary in color, but does _not_ specify this information. The normal basic zombies and more difficult zombies both are red, while quest target enemies are generally in orange. This was throwing me off for a while.


title: Can I choose how many bots are on each team in DotA 2?

text: The only way I know to play with bots is to check the "Fill empty slots with bots", or use the new "Practice Match vs Bots" option. Can I play a game with say only 1 bot on my team, versus only 3 bots on their team? If yes, how do I do it?


title: How is experience handled outside of groups?

text: I've been exploring the first real quest area after joining the Illuminati, and (expectedly) found a bunch of other people also wandering around, killing zombies. If I decide to help someone kill a few zombies without grouping up with him, how is experience handled in that case? Am I stealing experience from him? Am I not getting rewarded for the kills at all? I would hope that it is beneficial to take a few seconds to help out another player, but I would like some confirmation one way or the other before I start developing habits.


title: How can I effectively run away from hostile creatures?

text: So, I have been playing quite a bit of The Secret World over the weekend and have worked my way through the main story line in Kingsmouth. I have noticed two things. First is that when I run into something that can squash me, usually by accident, I have a very hard time getting away. Second is that you can not kite a creature too far in a single direction with out its health being instantly restored and it returning to where it came from. What I would like to know is how I can combine these. Clearly there is a distance I can get away from a creature in order to run away but when I am truly trying to run away I have never been able to get the creatures to break off of me. Is there some logic that is keeping them chained on to me because they know they are going to do me in as opposed to when I am kiting them and winning they will eventually give up? Is it time based instead of distance maybe? I just can not figure this out.


title: How do I fix a vacuum leak?

title: I get a "Steam needs to be online to update..." error message every time I start up my computer

text: " _Steam needs to be online to update please confirm your network connection and try again._ " This started happening around a week ago. I looked it up, and I did the fix where you delete all the files but steamapps and Steam.exe, then restart your computer. I opened the file, open Steam, it updates and everything works. However, whenever I start up my computer again, it breaks and I have to do the fix. Does anybody know how this is happening or how to fix it once and for all? Also, it is saved in a new Program Files directory (Program Files2) because the first Program Files directory never stopped asking for admin access (I am admin) and it would not allow me to do anything with that Program Files directory, and the broken one contains some Steam files in it. These files are in my separate storage drive (Z:). My system files are on my smaller (C:) drive. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate.

title: Do Valorous Commendations ignore the Valor Point cap?

text: Since the release of the Mists of Pandaria for World of Warcraft, the valor point cap per week has been adjusted to 1000 valor points per week. For one of the daily quests for the Order of the Cloud Serpents you can earn valor points for competing in a race on your cloud serpent; ![Valorous Commendation](http://i.stack.imgur.com/R1OcI.png) I am already valor capped this week, does using this item still give me 15 valor points (thus ignoring the cap) or are they wasted because I am over the valor point cap already?


title: Is it possible to keep all sixteen countries in the XCOM coalition?

text: I'm on my third XCOM campaign (normal difficulty) in an attempt to keep any countries from quitting the coalition and it is very clearly not working. My troops are strong enough to handle the early missions, but since there's no way to handle abductions in three places at once, on average this results in six additional points of panic. Is there a strategy that keeps all sixteen countries in the coalition? Is there a maximum difficulty level on which it will work?


title: PS3 1080p Image Quality Issue on Samsung LED

text: I just purchased a new Samsung UN55ES7003 to replace an older 46" model (LN46A650). Images originating from my DirecTV DVR (1080i and lower) seem to be fine, but something's happening between the PS3 (at 1080p) and the new TV. Basically what I'm noticing is:   * There is a vertical jitter - the image appears to slightly move up and then back to normal.   * There are horizontal, white lines in the bottom right corner of the screen. This happens in any PS3 content: menu, in game, and in movie. What I've tried:   * Switching HDMI cables (doesn't fix)   * A different HDMI port on the TV (doesn't fix)   * Try a different AV receiver (doesn't fix)   * Connected the PS3 back to the old set (issue goes away...as expected) Thus, I feel I've sufficiently ruled out all possible hardware issues with the exception of the new TV. Why I'm convinced it's only 1080p: I re-connected the PS3 back to the NEW TV, and went into PS3 Video Setup and cycled through all of the supported resolutions. NONE of the resolutions exhibited the image jitter/interference issue EXCEPT 1080p. I happen to have a standalone BD player and plan tomorrow to connect it to the new TV and see if the 1080p image from it also has the same problem. At that point, I will be convinced that it's an issue with the new TV handling 1080p content (which would be shocking; I've never had a problem with a Samsung TV). All of this said, if I find that the BD player also has this problem at 1080p, and it appears to be the TV, I guess I'll contact Samsung and/or the seller to start the RMA process, unless someone here can propose a setting change or firmware update that might fix this?


title: Ramifications of mass slaughter?

text: OK, this is going to sound a bit… sociopathic. Or perhaps psychopathic. In any event, it's something that I'd only do playing a game -- I swear! :) I will soon finish Point Lookout for the second time. It's the last bit of DLC for Fallout 3 in this, my fourth run-through of the game. I will have accomplished most of my goals (having gotten all but 20 of the unique weapons and articles of clothing). After I finish Point Lookout, I'm going to be a bit on the "bored" side in terms of X-Box gaming until New Vegas comes out. So until then, I was considering going on a personal challenge to obliterate all of man- (and ghoul-) kind in the Capital Wasteland. I know that random encounters will still pop up, but I was figuring on going to every town, every settlement, every everywhere, and wholesale slaughtering everyone I came across. Aside from the obvious ramifications -- shops no longer being available, so no trading to be done -- what are the ramifications of making a "last man in the world" (well, at least the east coast of the US) situation in Fallout 3? Update: If you're gonna do it, have fun with it! Pint-Sized Slasher Mask and children's Blast-Off Pyjamas FTW. ![The Pint-Sized Slasher](http://i.stack.imgur.com/qlgt2.jpg)


title: Is there a way to reset between-level skill progression without going to jail?

text: Serving one's sentence, for crimes, results in loss of "progress towards one or more skill level advancements; the longer your sentence, the more skills so affected. The maximum sentence is seven days; if you serve seven days, your skill advancement will be cleared for every skill." It's not that the skill's level is set back to the minimum value or 1 or 0 or anything like that, but the XP progress from the current level to attain the next skill level will be reset. How do I get such an effect without serving a sentence?


title: How do you orient a girder in Worms Reloaded?

text: In older worms games it was possible to rotate and resize the girder before placing it, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it in the new game. Is this still possible? If so, how? I looked through the default controls and there didn't seem to be any mention of the girder.


title: How did the cap economy make it to the east coast?

text: My understanding of the cap economy is that it was established and maintained by the Hub in Fallout 1. Given that, canonically, how did that particular barter system become the de facto system on the east coast, specifically in the Capital Wasteland and surrounding environs (The Pitt, Point Lookout, etc.)?


title: Why am I unable to enable the FlyCam in cutscenes?

title: Best way to improve execution with a fightstick?

text: I bought a fightstick some months ago, and I'm enjoying it a lot, I find it more fun to play fighting games with it, but I feel like I've stopped improving. I read in several places that it takes months to get used to it and that is true, but for some time now I've stopped improving. I think that I need to start doing some specific training in order to get better because I still play worse compared to how I played with a joystick. I play mostly SSFIV and as an example, I loved to play with Makoto with the joystick but I can't play with her at all in the fightstick, like, I can't execute the moves fast enough. Also, with Akuma I can perform a lot of combos in training mode, but in the heat of battle I always execute the move wrong, like when I'm blocking and try doing a: c.mp -> QCB lk I'm always holding down back, so the move doesn't come out. I'm figuring out my mistakes as I watch replays and stuff, but I feel I have become stagnant in my current execution. **Is there some kind of exercises or some daily training which I can do to improve my execution with the stick?**

text: In the SC2 online help, it's mentioned that leagues are played in seasons, and "the ladders will be wiped, allowing everyone to have a fresh start and begin anew." Are there any details on this? How often will this occur? Will everyone have to be placed into leagues again?


title: How to switch DLC in Tropico 4

text: I have just bought a couple of extensions for Tropico 4, but I don't understand how to switch from one to another. It seems I am stuck in _Modern times_. How can start Tropico 4 with _El Plantador_ instead?


title: Does Vladimir's Sanguine Pool have a hidden movement speed buff?

text: The description for Vladimir's Sanguine Pool is: > (Active): Vladimir sinks into a pool of blood becoming untargetable for 2 > seconds and slowing enemies above him by 40% for 1 second. Additionally, he > deals magic damage every half second to them and heals himself for 12.5% of > the damage done. Nowhere in the description does it describe any sort of movement speed buff yet when I see a Vladimir use his pool it feels like he is moving faster. But because I don't own Vladimir I was never really able to test it out. Now earlier I was looking at the last large patch update and I see this: > Vladimir - Sanguine Pool: movement speed bonus now decays over time. So my question is: Is there a hidden movement speed buff on Vladimir's Sanguine Pool and if so, how much is the movement speed buff?


title: How to play Jax vs. Olaf?

text: I just played a ranked game as Jax top lane against Olaf and I outlaned by quite a bit. So can anyone explain to me, does Olaf beat Jax or is there a specific way to play Jax so that I win the lane? Thanks!


title: How to make borders in video streams

text: Ive been watching a lot of streams lately, and some streamers have boxes or borders over certain things with logos in them. Does any one know what program they are using??


title: Does interacting with highlighted objects in Masyaf accomplish anything?

text: In the castle at Masyaf in the beginning of the game, there are several items (a table, a bookcase, a stack of books) that are highlighted and give you an "interact" option. Doing so causes a ghost or memory of Altaïr to appear in the room and do some gesturing. Does interacting with these objects have any effect on the gameplay or story? Do you miss anything by not interacting with these objects?


title: How can I tell if a stalker is going to kill me?

text: Every once in a while, a templar stalker will come and attempt to take my life (and will always be unsuccessful ;). Are there any conditions for when they do attack me? Is it completely random? Is there any way for me to see them nearby so I can attack first? The last time I was attacked, I noticed that I'm still completely **secret** from the templars. I don't remember how aware they were of me the other times.


title: Gullywash on attack/defense

text: On the Attack/Defense playlist, there's a map called Gullywash. However, it has a control points format rather than an attack/defense format. Why is it on the attack/defense playlist rather than the control points playlist?


title: How do I play my Zoo Warlock against a Shaman with Lightning Storm?

text: I'm currently playing Reynad's modern Zoo deck (decklist), and one matchup where I'm not sure how to play is against a Shaman that likely has Lightning Storm. The Warlock Zoo deck tends to flood the board with cheap minions, and many of the minions are in the range where Lightning Storm can kill them. Having a nearly full deck killed usually makes me lose the game, but keeping minions in hand tends to neutralize the Zoo deck's strength. How do I play the deck effectively against Shamans? When should I try to play around Lightning Storm, and when should I flood the board? Anything else I should do to minimize the impact of that particular AoE spell?

title: When should wall off my Terran base and when should I not?

text: When playing with Terran in ranked in any mode (1v1 or 3v3). I learned that against Zerg the base should be always closed. I do the same against Protoss or Terran, but I was told by some players that against Protoss or Terran, the base should not be walled off. So in which cases should the Terran base be walled off?


title: Cloned maps in Minecraft SMP without cheating

text: Can maps be cloned in SMP **without cheating**? (i.e. without editing saves or using /give or similar commands). Can this be done only at creation time (all the clones are created together), or can they be also cloned later (you already have a map and you clone it)?


title: Eerie music in the Nexus

text: I'm in the Nexus in _Demon's Souls_ and have progressed fairly far through the game. I've just completed World 4, the Shrine of Storms. I've noticed some quite eerie organ music playing in the Nexus that I'm pretty sure doesn't exist at the beginning of the game. What is the reason for this change? Does it mean anything?


title: How does an atom decide what to bond to?

text: Given for example, a Hydrogen atom (that can only have 1 bond max), that is sitting on a bonder next to two other atoms that are also on bonders and have available bonding slots, how is it determined which atom the Hydrogen ends up bonding to? I've tried experimenting with it being a priority order of directions, but that doesn't seem to be correct.


title: Account was hacked and leveled.. What do I do now?

text: I've never touched MoP but I was going to give it a whirl a couple days ago when I noticed I was banned. Went thru the process of getting it fixed and now I'm level 88 with (only?) 8k gold and old gear still. I don't know if I can tank (warrior): I still have ZA/ZG 'epics' and my non- tank gear is still ruthless stuff. I was, for some reason, in a WoTLK map when I logged in so I don't know where to go. Where should I level at 88 and is the tank gear I have, gold I have decent to run thru the new dungeons? I'd like to not make anyone mad, ha. Thanks!


title: How do I combine more ingredients during Alchemy?

text: According to this page _here_ I should be able to combine up to four ingredients for each potion/poison. However, when attempting to make a potion, I found I can only combine up to 3 in one mix. Is there a way to increase the amount of ingredients per mix that I make, or is that page wrong?

[Cancel] [Try Again] [Continue] All of the buttons make the dialog disappear for a fraction of a second, and then it appears again. Has anyone else had this problem or managed to work around it?


title: What actions freeze time?

text: Some actions freeze time, like opening your inventory, pickpocketing someone, opening your favourites etc. Recently I was going to talk to someone, and I noticed someone else I hadn't spoken to, so I spoke to them first. By the time I'd finished, my first target had wondered off. I thought that speaking to someone would also freeze time, but it didn't, causing me to lose track of someone. What actions in this game cause time to freeze?


title: How to invert a pulser and connect a door to it?

text: Obviously inverting a pulsar is kind of redundant, since it goes on and off repeatedly... however, when I want it to stop, a lever would do just fine, but it would keep it powered on. but what if I wanted the object its connected to be by default off? I can't use an inverter because the second I'll turn on the pulsar the inverter would fry and stop working, cutting the circuit. so how do I make an inverter that can withstand a pulsar?

title: Pros and cons of periodically running yourself into wall in Temple Run?

text: In Temple Run if I run myself into the wall in quick succession, I will be killed by the flesh-eating monkeys. However if I space out when I run into the wall, this seems like a strategic way of slowing my character down so that I can keep running for longer without getting overwhelmed by the speed. Is this a viable strategy? Are there other pros and cons to this strategy that I have not considered?


title: Crew at the end of Mass Effect 2

text: I know that the _Mass Effect 2_ ending varies depending on the choices you make. I have a few questions about a specific aspect of the ending: > The survival of your crew depends on whom you choose for certain parts of > the suicide mission. > 1.

I am a master's league player attempting to learn Zerg. My overall macro is very strong, but I have the sense I am over-droning which leads to my defeat against a strong 4 gate (high diamond->masters). Spine crawlers are often side stepped, speedlings take a significant larvae commitment and lead to a ton of zealots getting warped in, and roaches seem to come to slowly. How do pro Zerg players generally prepare for a 4 gate they know is coming? Are roaches common? Speedlings?

title: How do I activate the Red Trinity in Oogie's?

text: I activate all heartless spawning areas, clear everything out (I sealed the keyhole), and still the triangle command to activate the Red Trinity in Oogie's won't show up. Is this normal, or is it a bug that I'll have to wait for Square-Enix to patch?


title: How useful is the search tower really?

text: There's someone in my town who is REALLY in love with the search tower. This is my second town with him and he always wants to build it ASAP and then upgrade it every chance he gets. I understand that getting resources is important, but is it really effective early on to pump up the search tower at the expense of other things (like the watchtower)? Do other experienced players go for the search tower right away like this?


title: Should I prefer long or short ways in OpenTTD?

text: I read that the payment for a delivery is multiplied with the distance. (Subquestion: does it mean the distance traveled or the direct distance?) Since the overhead of un/loading and repairs is constant, it seems to me that longer distances have a better win/cost ratio. On the other hand, there are penalties for taking too much time. (Subquestion: do I get more time for longer ways?) So my question is: for maximum profit, should I transport few goods across the entire map, or should I transport more goods on ways as short as possible?


title: Can you save the civilians in Chapter 11 from the bandits?

The first group of bandits you come across are about to have forced sexual relations with a resisting woman. Can you save her before they kill or knock her out? That goes for other people that they have captured. If I move fast enough, can I save them from the bandits?

South to Lord's Castle there is a farm and there you can found a strange dog. Ima said that one day it falled from the sky. I didn't find any way to interact with it. Am i missing something or it is just designed in that way? Or maybe it has a role in the sequel `Thongs of Virtue`?

title: What is the highest theoretically possible DPS?

text: I recently played a warm-up coop match as AD carry with a karthus that stacked 6 archangel staffs which made me think of this question: At the current patch level 1.0.0.140 (Darius) Assuming a basic ranged AD Champion with the following properties:   * Level 18   * Base Attack Damage 100   * Base Attack Speed 1.00   * Base Health 1500   * Base Crit Chance 25%   * 1 Item Slot will always be Boots (probably berserkers)   * 1 Item Slot is reserved for defensive or utility items   * Minion Stacks can be assumed maxed   * Champion/Assist related Stacks can be assumed to be at 50% of maximum stacks against a single level 18 target assumed at 5000 Health and 100 Armor. What is the highest possible average DPS using any 5 items and including crits, armor penetration, etc. but ignoring any champion skills/passives and jungle buffs?


title: What are the equations for calculating armor values on the character sheet and armory profile?

text: The main purpose of this question is to be able to enter a series of armor values for gear, and then calculate a value that exactly matches the character paper-doll screen _and_ the armory value for any given character. The answer must take into account character level, bonuses from gear, enchantress buffs, and strength. For the armory value, what buffs apply? I believe if Warcry is spec'd, then on the armory page, it does factor into the shown value. Currently, the equation I'm using is: `Armor Value = Armor Values on Gear + Strength` However, this is calculated value 39 armor lower than the in-game value. The disparity is even greater when viewing my character profile, which has Warcry spec'd, even accounting for 20% increase in armor.


title: Remap cancel (B) key in Starcraft 2?

text: I've switched over to the grid keyboard layout. Works awesome. The one thing that sticks out is that if I need to cancel a unit movement, I can hit escape. However when using unit powers like shield, charge, whatever, I have to this the 'B' key to cancel it. That is so annoying because the B key is completely outside where my left hand is with the grid layout. Is there anyway to change the 'B' cancel key to escape also?


title: Missing watch-guess/guess phase

text: Quite often, I don't get the chance to watch my opponent guess my word or to guess theirs; when I click "play" I just get given a choice of words to draw. Our success streak doesn't reset, but I'm not sure if it increments either. Is there something one of us is doing wrong, or is this a known/common issue?

title: Did my Portal 2 saves get deleted?

text: So I was playing and was at about chapter 7, I think. All the time I had been relying on autosaves; when I loaded the game after exiting, I just selected "Continue Game" and I just kept on playing. However, now my brother decided to start a new game of his own. When I went to "Load Save", all I saw were autosaves from chapters 1 and 2. I assume that since I never explicitly saved the game, my autosaves were deleted. Am I screwed?


title: Killed all inhabitants of HELIOS ONE, yet quest still active

text: In Fallout:NV, I initially was going against the NCR early on, but switched allegiances to see how their storyline played out. All NCR troops accepted me as OK except for HELIOS ONE, where I had diverted power to all neighboring regions. They would attempt to kill me on sight, so I killed them all. The problem is that I still have a quest open for requesting support from them....any way to complete this quest? I would have expected that it would fail once all the troops were dead... The actual quest is 'Restoring Hope.' > Go to HELIOS One to ask about Forlorn Hope supplies.

title: Why does the Ammo bar color change?

text: When I use the Plamsa Cell ability, my ammo bar changes from yellow to orange. Later - while fighting, the ammo bar color switches back and forth between orange and yellow. What does it mean? * * *   * I'm standing around not fighting with Plasma Cell on - the ammo bar is yellow.   * I turn off Plasma cell - still yellow.   * I turn on Plasma cell, when the ability completes the bar turns orange.   * 3 seconds later, back to yellow (plasma cell still is active).


title: Can the `bot_autodifficulty_threshold_low` variable make bot difficulty harder than 'Expert' (bot_difficulty 3)?

text: If I've set the bots to be initially at 'Expert' difficulty (`bot_difficulty 3`), will the `bot_autodifficulty_threshold_low` variable (used to determine when the bot needs to make its difficulty harder, based on the average scores of human players) allow the bots' difficulty to go higher than 'Expert'? Or is 'Expert' the maximum bot difficulty allowed by the game, and bot difficulty won't go higher than that?

title: What is the best way to get a specific neighbor to move back into a town in Animal Crossing Wild World

text: Melba was her favorite character and, by some oversight, she let the character move out of her town a couple of years ago. She has played a number of in-game years doing nothing (she is near 100% completion) but trying to get Melba to move back in. She really wants this to happen. I have read of methods online that describe possible venues for editing a game save or forcing a move of a character from another town, but the sites describing these methods are very old (~2006) and various links within the articles describing the processes are dead. _I was wondering if anyone here could suggest the best way to get a specific neighbor (Melba) to move back into a town in Animal Crossing Wild World._ I am willing to buy a second DS, second game, any game-save-copying-hardware, or anything else I need to make this happen (would it be better to find someone online who has the character and try to make it move that way? (I'm not very familiar with the wifi abilities of Wild World)). I just need a trusted method for making this happen. Thank you for your time.


title: What does "reboot" mean when talking about latest game releases?

title: How does Mann Up mode affect item drop rate?

text: Since the Mann Up mode alters the item drop rate somehow, I'd like to know how the "regular" Mann versus Machine's drop system works. Is it working like for any other map or mode? Or is the drop rate reduced, for instance? From my personal experience, so far I dropped two random items at a rate that seems pretty much normal to me.

title: Why is my damage so different?

text: I'm playing Mass Effect 1 for the second time with an imported character (Infiltrator, level 45). Sometimes I one-shot every enemy that is in line of sight, but sometimes only their shield lightens up and they take almost no damage - even if I shoot them several times. Is this a bug or do some enemies have advanced levels? Summary of my question: My shots even manage to kill a stationary geth shield and the geth behind the shield (both with full hp), but sometimes the issue as described above happens. I have to use another weapon and shoot several times until the enemy dies.

title: Minecraft 2.0-How Do I Turn Super Hostile Mode Off?

text: I was wondering: how do I turn Super Hostile Mode off in Minecraft 2.0? I have tried many things, such as doing `/weather clear 1000000` which was supposed to make the weather be clear for 1,000,000 seconds, but it didn't. Can you please help me out? I can't get OptiFine for 2.0 since it's just an April Fools joke, and it's lagging way too much when lightning strikes on Minecraft. I even tried turning it on Peaceful, but that only makes it so no monsters spawn in it, and it doesn't turn the lighting off. Please tell me how to turn this off as it is very annoying. I even tried making a new world, but there's no difference.


title: How will the changes to Stimpack's research time affect the 3 Rax Timing Push?

text: As I understand it, one of the core ideas behind the 3 Rax Timing Push is to have your army at your opponent's doorstep as Stimpack finishes, or at least have it completed as your army pushes outwards. However, the 1.3 Patch includes the following change: > Stimpack upgrade research time increased from 140 to 170 seconds. 30 seconds is a long time in Starcraft 2. As a result of this change, would it be reasonable to change the push timing to rely on another upgrade, such as Combat Shields? Will the 3 Rax push become less viable? How else could this change affect this tactic?

text: In black ops, when getting in close to an enemy (ignoring the knife of course), is it better to ignore the scope and shoot from the hip? Or is it better to scope in for the accuracy?

title: Mouse cursor always visible in game

text: I just started to play Dark Souls on PC and I noticed that the cursor remains visible during the game. Although I can play with it I find it really annoying to always have a white thingy jumping through my screen when there isn't supposed to be one. I did some research but I couldn't find anything promising since most of the programs that promise to fix this bug don't seem to be very trustworthy.

title: Is there a reason I should reconcile edges?

text: Whenever I build something (like roads) right near the edges of the map, the landscape is modified to a configuration that doesn't match the neighboring side. SimCity asks to reconcile edges, but the operation is extremely destructive, blowing up many things that have been built near the edges and even highway cloverleaf interchanges elsewhere on the map. I can't see any problems if I just refuse to reconcile the edges. Are there any benefits to letting it do so?


title: Assassins Creed 2 undo a viewpoint sync

text: In Monteriggioni one of the missions is to synchronize the viewpoint at the top of the villa. Me being impatient when it comes to having no mini-map, already synchronized this viewpoint before the mission was even available. Now, in-mission, I go back to the viewpoint, and of course get no option to sync, but the mission does not progress either. The yellow marker on the map is exactly where the viewpoint is and I can't continue, presumably because the viewpoint is already synced. Does anybody know how I can un-sync a viewpoint? Or is there any other way to force progression at this point? Do I really have to start again?

text: I've noticed factions on the strategic map in Illyriad, and found the `Faction Info` page under options, but I don't know what factions are? Are they player or GM created and controlled? Can I interact with a faction? In short, what does a faction mean to me?


title: How do the Races synergize with the Slayer class?

text: I'm looking at playing a Slayer in the coming Open Beta, and I was hoping for some feedback from people who had played more than I have in the Closed Beta, about how the racial abilities synergize with the Slayer class. I understand how all the racials work, I'm more interested in the intersection between said abilities and the game play style of the Slayer class. Specifically I care about PvP (though, other domains are important to me).


title: Very low brightness after Windows Update graphics driver update

text: When I try to play _Call of Duty_ , the brightness becomes very low and I can't revert it. This started after a graphics driver update through Windows Update. I tried to increase the brightness from the game settings, but after a while (just seconds), it reverted back to black. I can see things, but all blackish. I have not had the same problem with other games. I have an Intel Core 2 Duo, no external graphics card, and 4 GB RAM installed on my PC. I considered removing the update, but it's not possible now. There is no more "Graphics Driver Update," rather "4342493284234" in the Installed Updates section. How can I resolve this?


title: How does reputation affect gameplay?

text: When you kill or hurt civilians your reputation goes down, when you solve crime submissions or avert street crimes, your reputation goes up. But: What is the actual point of the reputation?

title: What are the 16 New Great People and 16 New National Wonders in Civ Rev 2.4.4?

But, what exactly _are_ these new Great People and National Wonders? Even after purchasing the packs, there's no new _documentation_ ; I guess I could play 16 new games with each civilization to find out, but it would be kind of nice to know as part of my decision for picking my nationality at the start. I've looked online and can't find anything anywhere.


title: Cameo appearances by the co-op characters?

text: Somewhere in Chapter 8, possibly a test numbered 15 (I can't exactly remember now), another chamber (to the right as you enter) gets ripped in half, and for a short while you can see P-Body (the orange co-op bot) standing near the exit, after a short time it spins and leaves. ### Screenshot: ![Portal 2 screenshot, showing distant cameo appearance by P-Body](http://i.stack.imgur.com/03RON.jpg) **Are there any other instances of either co-op bots showing up in the single player campaign?**

text: I just got invited to a Guild in Guild Wars 2. But after playing for a while, I noticed that Guild Chat was... unusually quiet. I know these people. They are chatterboxes. They normally _do not shut up_. So it seemed odd. Then I tried to talk in /guild, figuring I'd kickstart some conversation. But I got an error message, informing me that " **You Are Not In A Guild** ". But that can't be right, because I can see my name on the roster! Why can't I talk in Guild Chat?

title: Is there a way to get the "Wonder Skin" ability without having access to the Dream World?

text: I'm interested in getting a few (actually all) Pokemon with the "Wonder Skin" ability. However I've recently learned that I'd need to have access to the Dream World in order to do this: > Wonder Skin is a normal ability, it will show up in the same way. **It's > "hidden" in the sense that you can't catch a Skitty with it, you'd have to > get one from the Dream World.** – Shinrai (via my previous question)    > Oh... my... I just looked it up, just getting a Skitty with Wonder Skin to > appear in the dreamworld requires 10000 **dreamworld points** >.< That's a > lot of grinding. – Trent Hawkins (via The Bridge) The problem here is I'm using an emulator (DeSmuME 0.9.9) with my **legally dumped rom**. As of right now Wi-Fi is not supported for DeSmuME and won't be for the foreseeable future (according to what I've read on forums and on the main site) and the Dream World requires access to it. I could use a program like PokeGen (a program that modifies save files) and give myself one, but I'd like to play the game legitimately. _Also no this question does not violate the rules, because I own an actual copy of Pokemon White 2 (where I got the rom from) and I'm not asking for cheats_. Long Story Short: is there anyway for me to get the "Wonder Skin" ability without having access to the Dream World?


title: Can I skip the initial settings screen when launching Space Pirates and Zombies?

title: Can I get Legion early and still save the crew?

text: I'm now at my third play through of Mass Effect 2 and this time I decided to take Legion with me on more missions. However, doing lots of missions after Legion joined means the Normandy Crew will die, which is mildly annoying. Is there any way to prevent this? (Since, according to this question's answers, it's not possible, I don't mind modding, exploiting a glitch, editing my save file or cheating) According to this answer I can complete most missions after completing the main quest, but I still would have to do loyalty mission without legion.


title: How can I tweak the '.ini' settings of Dishonored?

text: I'm running the Steam version of Dishonored, and I'd like to be able to bind a command to `F6` disable HUD. I've noticed that most people actually recommend changing the _DishonoredInput.ini_ file, which I don't have in my Config folder, so I assumed that _DefaultInput.ini_ would do it. However it seems like any tweaks I make to my _DefaultInput.ini_ file don't actually have any effect. I tried disabling the game's startup movies through there unsuccessfully (I eventually disabled them by renaming the movie files themselves, so I'm good there), and now I'm trying to include this line to disable HUD: `.m_PCBindings=(Name="F6",Command="ShowHUD_True")` But it's not working. Any ideas?

title: How do I get the 4v4 insane AI kin achievement?

text: I'm trying to get the 4v4 insane ai kin achievements, but I'm having trouble with zerg. The recommended strategy is to cripple one the AI with spine crawlers, but the AI always kills them off with drones. I tried many different positions, but they always kill them off asap. Edit: It seems that the AI was updated and is super aggressive when it sees a cheese (cannon rush, spine rush, bunker rush).

title: Starcraft 2 : getting gold on Psionic Assault

text: I'm having a hard time reaching gold in the Psionic Assault challenge in Starcraft 2. I managed to get silver using combinations of force fields and psionic storms, but it seems that leaves me with too little energy left for the last waves. I usually end up being gg'ed right after hitting the silver mark. I tried morphing one or two Archons after some of my templars exhausted their energy, but that only helped surviving for maybe a couple of waves. What's worse, the waves come too fast for the archons to regenerate their shields, and they're no longer capable of storming after that so I guess this is really only useful for making a last stand. I feel I must be under-using the sentries, but every attempt I've made at using hallucinations or guardian shields only seemed to eat their energy faster without helping that much in destroying the aggressors. And without shielding they die just too fast if I send them in battle. Am I missing something, or is it just a matter of getting a better mileage out of force fields and storms ?

text: I've played the new Syndicate demo for a few sessions and upgraded my TAR-39 assault rifle to include a grenade launcher attachment. I use it occasionally, as well as the regular (hand) grenades, but can't really tell when I'm replenishing either of those. They don't seem to fill when using the generic ammo boxes available at checkpoints, but their ammo does replenish, I just cant tell when. I assume hand grenades can be replenished by picking up enemy hand grenades hacked in mid-air, but that's only my guess. Has anyone figured up what exactly replenishes this type of ammo?

Is there a way to interveine this problem?


title: Zombies found on minecraft server with mobs disabled

text: I'm pretty new to Minecraft having only just bought the game about a week ago, so apologies if I'm missing something obvious here (I've attempted to search for the answer, but didn't find any relevant results) I've got a private minecraft server on my home network in survival mode with `spawn-monsters` disabled and normal difficulty, I've not seen any hostiles, or at least not until just now. I've just found a location in the world, deep underground, where I've found what was a fully enclosed pitch black room that was full of zombies. I got overwhelmed by them within seconds, but I did briefly notice a number of storage chests and other items within the room. If it is relevant, I found the room by accident when I saw my first moss cobblestone. Not knowing exactly what the block was, I mined them thinking I'd found another resource, in doing so, this room was revealed. I'm the only person that has played on the server (it's behind a firewall, and I stop and start the server on demand). Is there any explanation for this? I didn't expect to see any hostiles at all with `spawn-monsters` option disabled. I'm going to head back as soon as I get chance, but was wondering what it might be?


title: Cannot shift right-click in minecraft

text: I'm playing with version 1.7.10 on PC and I seem to be unable to use the Shift and right-click, for instance to put two droppers on top of each other facing up or down. I have already read several posts with similar problems and all of them suggested these fixes:   * turn screen mode on/off   * try with both left and right shift   * click F11 twice   * try shift ENTER instead   * try with right shift and control   * try with left shift and control   * press the "pick block" key and try again   * restart game   * download minecraft again and re-install   * update LWJGL I have tried all except the last one - I don't see how a "game developing API" should have anything to do with it, the game should run fine with the newest version of JRE. Although I can put two droppers next to each other using a temporary block, this only works if the droppers are not facing up or down. Are there any other solutions I haven't mentioned already?

title: All items not removed from brewing stand in automated brewing system

text: I am making an automated brewing system and it works well for most part. The items are being added to the brewing stand in the correct order and another hopper is adding bottles of water. there is a hopper at the bottom with a chest to remove the finished potions. **Problem:** When brewing is done, I must press a button which will reset the system. The finished potions are to be removed (from all three slots) and then a new water bottle takes its place and then the materials are released again. In my one, when I press the button, only the first slot is being removed from the brewing stand and two others remain. In addition, I am seeing fresh bottles of water also going through the system and into the chest. Am I missing something? Please let me know what you think. Thank You! **Edit:** Solution: So what @Aiyion.Prime said was the problem. The top hopper seems to be filling in as fast as the bottom one is removing, which results in only one slot being filled/emptied. As @MrLemon mentioned in the comment, it is possible to fix this issue with my one button setup. All you need to do it take the signal going to the bottom hopper and split it to another lead. Then invert the signal so that when the bottom is shut the top is open and visa versa. Then use your favorite method to extend the signal gogin to the top hopper. I used the multiple repeater method, splitting the red stone wire into multiple parts and having a single repeater on each, having one+ delay than the previous, with all repeaters joining at the end to make a single signal going to the top hopper. -- this will power the hopper as soon as the signal comes, but because each hopper is on a 1 tick delay, and I had 4-5 repeaters, I was able to keep the signal going for 5 ticks (longer than a regular signal). I also added a 1 tic delay on the signal going to the bottom hopper so give the top hopper time to shut before emptying the bottom, and then after the bottom one shuts (is powered), the top one can open again and refill the brewing stand with water bottles. I hope that helps anyone else with the same problem as me and thank to those who answered.

title: Two way minecarts on a single track

text: I've built a rail system for some minecarts to transport items from my mineshaft back to my base, with a load/unload system. However what I'm trying to achieve is to get two minecarts working on the same single run of track at the same time. To achieve this, at the mineshaft end of the track, I'm trying to use detectors to detect an approaching minecart returning after unloading from my base (B), and launch the loading minecart (A), and prevent them from colliding by switching the track at the junctions. ![Minecart rail system](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ng5LF.png) The image above shows the basics. I've used a powered rail under the loading minecart (A), and a detector on the track which powered the powered rail. I've tried all sorts of combinations of junctions (using detectors to switch them), but all my attempts so far have been fruitless. Can anyone suggest a solution?

Does anyone know if errata is available for this guide, and if so, where it can be found?

text: I understand that it's probably just there for the sake of making an atmosphere, but it just makes thing look bad in my opinion. I don't see any options to disable it from the games main menu. ![Settings](http://i.stack.imgur.com/0NMV7.jpg)


title: How much difference does the autoloader make on a tank?

text: I'm just wondering if it really make a difference in a tank to tank encounter. Its usually which ever tank can get the first shot will prevail unless the other tank can drive, shoot and dodge some shots; But would the autoloader make a difference in that? how many shot would it take before the autoloader has "given" you an extra shot compared to a tank that doesn't have the autoloader?


title: Culture of Pokemon WiFi battling extremely competitive in X/Y?

text: My question has to deal the general culture of wifi battles in Pokemon X/Y. I just finished the Elite 4 and am now looking for something to do. WiFi battling looks fun, but spending hours upon hours breeding the perfect monsters is very unattractive to me. Would I see even mild success if I brought my story team online to battle random opponents? Or do you have to have a perfect Smogen-rules team to stand a chance? I'm hoping I can just wifi battle casually and if I really like it, I will spend time breeding and building a competitive team.


title: What should I do to prepare for the release of Cataclysm?

text: I'd like to prepare for cataclysm being released in terms of clearing my bags / bank and also spending / saving / acquiring 'currency' (gold / honor / emblems etc) but am not sure where to start. The kind of things I'm thinking of are where 'currency' changes from one expansion to the next:   * Badges of frost / heroism etc. Should I spend them on heirloom items, or save them if they get converted to something usable in Cata?   * Honor - similar question - spend now or save?   * Crusader orbs / Frozen Orbs - sell now?   * Sell trade mats (at now rock bottom prices)? Or are some expected still to be in demand in Cata?  Also I have a few thousand gold saved, but not sure what the 'exchange rate' is likely to be - is it worth taking advantage of being able to get gold easily now, or are quests like to pay out more than the current level 80 quests once we start levelling again?


title: What is the most powerful non-beam spell in Magicka?

text: Everywhere I look for powerful spell combinations says to use the Steam Beam (QFQFAAS), but however powerful that is on those big powerful enemies, it's fairly ineffective on big groups of lesser enemies. What is a more spammable spell that I could use to deal with these kinds of battles? I've been mostly using QRQRQRQRS, (4 ice, 1 arcane), which shoots out a ton of arcane shards and can deal upwards of 3500 damage if the enemy is right next to me and can kill a bunch of imps at once. Are there any other options? Pressing 9 keys every time I want to cast a spell makes it rather hard to cast in the fray of things.


title: Is enabling Steam features possible for non-Steam copies?

text: This is perhaps an odd or silly question, and it needs a bit of elaboration. I have two copies of a game, one from Steam, and one from the developer's website. This is because I purchased the game before it became part of a Humble Bundle. In the case of Arkham Asylum, there is a mac version of the game, but Steam does not carry it. They DO carry Arkham City's mac version, though. Darned if I know why. I've looked in the package content of Steam games before, and they come with extra files, namely on how to handle Steam integration. I'm going to try to replicate these files into my mac copy of the game, with all the symlinks. I want to see if this will allow Steam to track my data in the game, mostly, such as time played and achievements earned. If this is not possible, I won't be heartbroken. I know this is a stretch at best. I come here because I've scoured the internet in search of an answer to this, and this is the last place I can think of. Has this been done before? If so, to what degree of success? Am I crazy to think that this replication might work? Thanks.
