title: Why attack wards?

text: In League of Legends, you can attack wards for a short window of time when they're put down by the opposing team (discounting the use of other methods of finding wards). Often, a quick autoattack at the beginning of the match can only take out one segment of health on a ward, and since I can't find a definite consequence of wards losing health, **I was wondering if there's a benefit to attacking wards if you can't take it out entirely at once.**


title: Finding a replacement Lockpick Weekly early game

text: Just started playing Fallout 3:New Vegas again. One of the first quests is to break into the safe in the school house. You start out with 15 points for lockpick skill, but you need 25 to attempt to lockpick the safe. Handily, our good companion gives you a Lockpick book granting you +10 to lockpick skill temporarily. However, if you're an idiot, like me, you forget that it's temporary and just read that bad boy straight off the bat. Where can I find a replacement this early in the game?


title: How can I gain humanity in Dark Souls?

text: Every so often I'll look up at my counter and notice I gained some humanity. If I was fighting bosses I wouldn't think much of it, but sometimes it will happen when I'm just farming enemies. I've recently noticed that every so often I will spawn at a bonfire (after dying) and will gain a humanity. I'm uncertain as to why. In what ways can I gain humanity in Dark Souls?

title: Can you kill the Drake in the Undead Burge?

text: I know if you cut off the Drake's tail you get the Drake Sword, but is it also possible to kill him? I know in _Demon's Souls_ there were a couple dragons which couldn't be killed when you first met them, and would simply fly away after their health was low enough. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/OegLa.jpg) Does the same thing happen here, or is it possible for me to kill the Drake? If I do kill him, what is the reward?


title: How do I start Super Melee mode in The Ur-Quan Masters?

text: I've figured out how to configure team names, membership, and control. But beyond that screen, I can't seem to find how to initiate battle. After clicking the "BATTLE!" button, I'm presented with a screen that has a black background and two blue boxes. Each box has a team name, and icons representing the ships in each team and their values. Each box also has two buttons - a question mark and a red X. At this point, my normal controls (Up/Down/Left/Right/Control/Shift/Escape) seem to not function. Is there something wrong with the game, or my system? Or, does the control set change specially for Super Melee mode at this point? How should I proceed? This is on a Windows 7 Ultimate x64 system, with UQM version 0.7.0.


title: What control style should I use for Voxatron?

text: I picked up the Voxatron alpha today and I'm finding it pretty difficult to play with WASD and a mouse since there's no way to tell if your mouse is positioned left, right, above or below the player. It's a fairly traditional two-joystick shooter but it's a PC game so I'm stuck on what control style I should attempt next. Is there a setting I'm missing that makes the mouse style bearable? Or should I break down and find a way to pair a controller with two joysticks to my Mac?


title: How could this MW2 round on PlayStation have been hacked?

text: Now I know about various hacks for games on PCs, or games that run dedicated servers which could easily be modified. However one day I was playing MW2 on my PlayStation, and I came across a very strange match on Scrapyard where a bunch of players were literally blowing the whole place up constantly. Within 30 seconds, I was already killed 20 times, while the winning team players had more than a hundred kills. The killcams showed them shooting constantly and the whole map was blowing up every few seconds. I have some video footage of that match here. How is that possible? I thought you could not hack a PS game in that way since you can't control who runs a server.


title: Kick reliably in Dark Souls

text: Is there a setting to adjust the sensitivity of kicking or leap attack? I'm using an XBOX controller on the PC. I'm using a mace. I know it is left stick forward + RB (or RT for leap attack). I'm pressing them at exactly the same time. I can get it to happen about 25% of the time while I'm just practicing in an open area with no enemies. I can't seem to figure this out, so there is no way I can reliably do it in combat. To be clear: during the other 75% of the time (when I fail to pull off the move(s)) I get a step forward and light attack or heavy attack. So my buttons and stick are working on the controller. This appears to be strictly a timing issue.


title: 50 or 100 points for a kill?

text: I always seem to get 50 for a kill but on YouTube those gets 100. Is all about the game you play, or how you kill someone?


title: How do I fix the stuck typing bug?

text: When the map zone changes and I'm typing, I will get stuck inside that mode and unable to get out of it, even enter, escape, etc does not close the box. The only way out is to restart the game, how do I fix this bug?


title: Which wrench should I use?

text: I have no clue, I like crits with the normal wrench, but the bleeding on the Southern Hospitality is awesome with spies. I like the faster build time with the Jag, although I think it should also add metal for upgrading on in increments of 50 instead of 25. And if I had a golden wrench, I'd use that all the time. However, there can only be one. Which is the **best** wrench? (Not counting the gunslinger)


title: PS3 Blueray 5.1 audio playback with older receiver?

text: I'm having problems using my PS3 as a Blueray player and getting surround sound from my receiver. First my setup: I have both a Tivo Premier and PS3 connected to my Sony LED TV by HDMI. The Sony receiver is connected to the optical out of the TV because it doesn't support HDMI. The Tivo has no issues passing surround sound though the TV to the receiver. I also think that if I play a DVD on the PS3 I get surround sound as well, but don't recall for sure if that's the case. When I play PS3 games I do get surround sound. When I played both my "Man on Fire" BR and "The Social Network" BR, neither disc would the PS3 pass surround sound to the receiver, just 2.0 Dolby. Looking on the menu of "Man on Fire" it only supports TrueHD surround sound from the disc menu. From what I've gathered from some rather old posts in some A/V forums TrueHD is supposed to include DD tracks as well for older receivers like mine, but the PS3 doesn't seem to pass that on. Anyone else have a similar setup? Any idea where to go from here?

A tutorial was shown when I first started coming across FOES, which was nice and handy, but I can't seem to find anyway to locate the information again. I know that the colour around the FOE map icon is supposed to tell you how difficult it will be, but I can't remember the colours. I've tried locating the tutorial somewhere in my menu, but I'm not having any luck. Is there a way to view previously viewed tutorials?


title: Afterward-unreachables in PM:TTYD

text: I've just had two scares playing this one while collecting star pieces. The first was on the moon, after I had beat Lord Crump on the moon and saved, I realized I could no longer get back to the moon (since the fortress didn't have any power for that), and hence I would be unable to go get the underground star piece I missed out there. But then I found out you can go back to the moon after you beat the Shadow Queen. The second was just last night when I went specifically on a quest for the star pieces - I was in Hooktail castle and realized I couldn't ride the yellow block up to get the star piece anymore because I already destroyed the stone block. But it turns out you can just fall from above to get it. So my question is, what kinds of special collectibles (badges, shine sprites, especially star pieces) cannot be reached after a certain point? I've invested about 60 hours, so it'd be tragic if I can't go back and reach something. I know that in the previous Paper Mario game there was precisely one afterward- unreachable star piece: it's underground right before the Lava Piranha boss (after the volcano erupts, you can't go back to get it, which in turn means you can't get all of Merlow's badges). The fact that boss tattles can be found in professor Frankly's trash can, it doesn't keep track of enemies' first strikes, like the original does in Mario's house, and it seems to cares less about running away since it forces you to do it three times all suggest that TTYD is more forgiving.


title: What Melodies can i play to my Mountain?

text: I recently purchased The Mountain, one of the most discussed ~~screensaver~~ game in this year. One of the possible interactions consists of playing Melodies with your keyboard to your Mountain (or are you the Mountain and you are playing to yourself?). What Melodies can you play and what are their effects?


title: What's the best way to start the Crash Landing modpack?

text: With the new Hardcore Questing Mode (HQM), numerous modpacks have surfaced, including Crash landing. I've seen both popular and less popular YouTubers start "Let's Plays" on Crash Landing, probably because of the similarities it shows to Agrarian Skies (a hugely popular modpack). Crash Landing is a situation where your ship has crash landed on a dust covered planet and you have to battle both dehydration and overheating to survive (among other things). Most people, at the start of a Crash Landing play-through, go outside and build a wall, or dig a moat, to cover their crashed ship. The problem with this method is that working outside rapidly increases your core temperature and dehydration rate. I was wondering if a smarter move would be to start your base underneath your ship, thus avoiding the dangers of outside. Obviously the dust would fall down, but if you build your base under the solid blocks of your ship, it's likely that the dust wouldn't reach you. Also, since you're technically inside, your heat increases at a very slow rate and you dehydration is also slower. At night you might cool off, but then you can build a furnace or torch to keep you warm (which are both easy to acquire). Am I missing something important or is the best survival method by and large just a matter of personal preference? I haven't checked any of the source code so I don't know which factors affect the rate at which your character overheats but, logically, building an underground base in the desert seems like a more logical thing to do than just building a wall open to the desert sun. Graphical answers with formulas and facts will be highly appreciated.

title: Does destroying a collected MELD canister decrease the amount of MELD received?

text: One of my snipers managed to destroy a MELD container another operative had already opened. The Dr. Vahlen chided me for destroying MELD in that lovely way of hers, yet the UI still counts that canister as collected rather than lost. Can I freely destroy MELD canister after collecting them, or will I lose collected MELD if an open canister is destroyed?

title: How do I do the parkour (green hoop) mission near the bridge?

text: I am trying to do Brick 35 listed here - green hoops appear with maybe five seconds between them. Unfortunately, when I jump off the second building and slide down the rope, I move through the ring without the game acknowledging it so it times out instead of activating the next ring. Is this a bug (I'm on Xbox 360)? Is there a known fix? Or am I supposed to be approaching the run some other way?


title: Seeing all the crafting materials on a recipe in Diablo 3 on console?

text: I just found the plan for Staff of Herding in Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls on Xbox One, and checking the recipe shows me 3 materials needed:   * Wirt's Bell   * Black Mushroom   * Gibbering Gemstone I found the names of those items from finding the recipe online. So, here's my two questions related to the crafting window:   * Apparenly the recipe requires more than those 3 materials, it also requires Liquid Rainbow and Leoric's Shinbone. **How can I see those materials in the crafting window?** Meaning, how would I know that the recipe requires more than the 3 shown materials if I didn't go looking for the recipe online? The window only shows the 3 first(?) materials.   * **Can I see the names of the materials in the crafting window somewhere?** Assume that I don't have the item so I can't go looking for the item by appearance in my stash, how would I know what to search for? A lot of item databases only has the names of the materials, not their icons, which does not tell me which materials I have and which ones I miss, other than hunting through my stash for all the icons. Again, note that my question is about the console version of Diablo 3, in particular (for me) the Xbox One version.

title: Options for boosting signal over DSL/live match for Xbox 360

text: I have DSL and where I live we do not have that choice (I live in a rural area and do not have the option of cable). I have a NETGEAR WN2000RPT wireless extender I use to connect to Xbox Live. The extender tells me if I have restricted internet access though (i.e. red light for restricted NAT or slow internet and green for okay). Currently, I connect to a netgear wireless router and have been for awhile. Until recently, when I changed the router and DSL filter it was restrictive and giving me red lights for the internet connection same as the Xbox 360. Sometimes, the Xbox 360 would be green on the NAT test while the wireless extender was red. So, my question is what can I buy to get the most out of my DSL connection? In addition, what are some suggestions of top Satellite providers or alterative forms of internet connection for rural areas around KY and south if it will not.improve my speed much? Notes about connection: 1. ADSL from what I can gather. 2. ISP AT&T(no choice because ATT owns the road I am on and no other ISP will deal with us). 3. Tried a while back to ask for a phone line replacement for our road because we are 5 minutes from a major highway and AT&T gives us the runaround they will upgrade the line but does nothing. 4. Connection speed: 1.5 mbps.

I'm not entirely sure how to "exploit" them in order to make a ton of gold. One of the professions I do not have is Inscription which seems to be getting a ton of gold now due to Darkmoon Faire trinkets. I know this all depends, amongst other factors, on the economy of the server, but I was hoping that a guide or addon or some sort would be of assistance here. So are the WoW gold making guides out there legit, or am I just dreaming?

title: Any reason to fully explore Treasure Map dungeons in DQ9?

text: I've just reached the point in Dragon Quest IX where I can start exploring the Treasure Map dungeons, and I completed the one that the game gives you as a "starter". It appears that the floors are (semi?) random, and can be fairly large, so I just wanted to check if there was any point in fully exploring each floor, or if I should go down as soon as I find the stairs to the next level. I did run into one blue chest, but the contents of those are never very good, so those aren't particularly exciting. Is there anything more significant to find, or is it best to just reach the boss as quickly as possible?

Are some traps just really hard to use or totally luck based? I'm taking it in the teeth a fair bit from the enemy, and I want to dish out some reciprocal pain!

title: What is the functionality of a cathedral in the Diablo world?

text: A cathedral is a Christian church which contains the seat of a bishop in the real world. While there is a bishop in the Diablo universe there doesn't seem to be any kind of organized religion in the Diablo universe (at least in the games). Since there is no organized religion there shouldn't be any bishops or cathedrals in that universe. There is also a priest and a chapel in Wortham in the 1st Act of Diablo 3. But again, no religion is ever mentioned in the games, and no religion is seemed to be fallowed in the Sanctuary world. To whom (or what) is the cathedral dedicated, and what religion is practiced in it?

title: Will playing offline affect trophy acquisition?

text: I'm picking up _Demon's Souls_ again so I can play through it before the servers close. However, while trying to plan for a trophy run and somewhat efficient playthrough, everything I've read recommends playing in offline mode in order to make it easier to get Perfect White/Black World Tendencies. If I play offline, will I still be able to get the trophies? I'm wondering how exactly this works if I need to be signed out of PSN in order to play offline. If I don't get them while playing offline, it partially negates trying to go for an optimized run in the first place...

title: What does it mean that a new substitution jutsu is available?

text: I've recently picked up Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 (guilty pleasure) and find some of the text prompts the game throws at me rather baffling. Recently, after performing rather well at a specific fight during the "Ultimate Adventure" mode, I received a message that a "new substitution jutsu" is available. To my best knowledge, "substitution jutsu" in the game's context refers to the action you perform when blocking just before an attack lands, avoiding all damage. I only know of one way to perform these using exactly one button on the controller and the move always looks the same. What is this "new substitution jutsu" and how do I access/use it? Is it only relevant in another game mode? Did I misinterpret something the game was trying to tell me?

text: I have unwittingly bought a second hand game on e-bay that uses a Steam account for activation. I am currently in dispute with the seller as he sold something which I feel is unusable. He has listed a site where he says I can buy a steam code, however, I think, judging by the cost, that this is for the whole package and I wouldn't need the physical disc so this still would mean I have shelled out money for something I didn't need.

Completing them will > create a quest item, which can be turned in to the Lorewalkers and displayed > in their museum. **The chance for creating a pristine version of an artifact > instead of a common one is completely random.** Obviously random == "has some percentage chance". Has the chance of a pristine solve been discovered/calculated?


title: Actions aren't performed when disconnected

text: On a friend's multiplayer Minecraft server, it seems actions which I have initiated get paused when I'm not connected. For example: if I plant a tree and come back and hour later, the tree will still be a sapling. Also, if I start smelting something in a furnace, it restores to where it was when I log back in after logging out. Does anyone know why this is? The server's still running, so I don't see why it would be like this.


title: How can I run Dwarf Fortress in text mode on my Linux VPS?

text: I installed Dwarf Fortress on my Linux VPS to use with dfterm. It's running Ubuntu 10.04. I'm fairly certain I have all the dependencies: I've installed:   * ncurses   * ncursesw   * libsdl   * libsdl-image   * libgtk   * libglu   * libopenal1 I had to turn sound off or it will instantly segfault, and I set the display mode to text. I've made no other changes to the config. However, even before I go near dfterm, it won't run properly. It just displays a blank screen. What could be causing this? Is their a dependency I missed? Is there something else I should have changed in the config? **EDIT:** This has been asked and answered on the Ubuntu StackExchange.

I can now press his claim and go to war with Scotland. Question is, when I win the war and this guy becomes King of Scotland, will I actually see any benefit (other than his +100 opinion of me). Will I be his liege and will I as the King of England have expanded my territory to encompass Scotland? Or would this be a pointless war and instead I should invite people with Ducal claims who will swear fealty to me should I press their claim, until I have enough of Scotland to usurp the Kingdom for myself?

title: What are the best places to horde EV train?

text: In Gen VI, EV training has become significantly easier thanks to **horde encounters**. Adding Pokérus and Power items, it's possible to raise a specific stat by as much as 60 EVs per battle. **Sweet Scent** always triggers horde encounters unless there is a wheather condition (possibly only in rain, I'm not sure there).   Since EVs can rise so fast with this method, it's now also relevant how far these spots are from each other or from the nearest Pokémon Center, so that the **total time** used to fully EV train one or several Pokémon can be minimized. So now the question is **where the best spots for efficient horde EV training are** in X/Y.   Criteria are:   * The number of different Pokémon that can appear in hordes at the specific spot and their respective EV yields   * If there are mixed hordes at the specified spot, the different Pokémon's EV yields   * Proximity to other spots and to Pokémon Centers to minimize the time to get from spot to spot An ideal spot would have only hordes in which all Pokémon give either +1 or +2 for a specific EV (same for all different hordes in that spot) and be reachable from a Pokémon Center very close to the city entrance.


title: Would you recommend upgrading shields or armor first?

title: Can I enter the "restricted area" early in the game?

text: I generally like to work on side quests before the main quest. So far I've started a couple (Bane's and Zsasz's quests, for instance) that have objectives inside a big red "restricted area" on the map. I don't know what happens if I try to cross this boundary, as so far I haven't had reason to enter it. Is it feasible to try to completely finish these side quests early in the story? Or should I wait until I have access to this "restricted area" later in the game? If I can't finish, is there any benefit to partially completing them now?

title: How does offline mode impact Anno 2070?

text: Anno 2070 apparently has online and offline modes, and I'm wondering how those modes are different. I found some discussion of what you can't do in offline mode, but having not yet played the game those specifics weren't very helpful for me. Basically I'm wondering about whether the online mode adds legitimate multiplayer-like content/gameplay, and whether offline mode is artificially restricted as a form of DRM. (Ie. am I _punished_ for playing offline, or am I just playing by myself?)


Can you turn off titles in player names? For example if my name is Akbar, I might have the options to add "Captain Akbar" or "Akbar, Black Bisector". When I'm in a warzone, the titles make it difficult for me to match up the player on screen to the badge on the operations frame.


title: Bug: Companions wandering far from Whiterun + Skjör resurrected

text: Ok, so I encoutered my first _serious_ bug in Skyrim, and wondered what could have caused it. I am already the Harbinger of the companions, which means Skjör has been dead for a long time now. Njada Stone-arm was my follower, and I used fast travel to go somewhere else (will provide name on departure and arrival location if necessary). Both departure and arrival locations were on the far east of the map, so really far from Whiterun. So I arrived at this place, and my follower was not there. Far in the distance, I saw a mammoth fighting someone. I wanted to check, just in case, and it was actually Aela, Njada, and Skjör fighting the mammoth. Moreover, Skjör was in a dead-like position (eyes closed, arms crossed on chest, standing straight). And, as if it was not enough, he was half in the ground, so only his chest was emerging off the ground, but he was still moving and running after the mammoth anyway (I couldn't figure if he was Basically, I saw Skjör's dead torso sliding off the ground. After that, I lost them, so I tried to fast travel again to get Njada back at my side, but she was not there. And from there, I couldn't find her back. I load my game and tried again, and the same thing happened (Aela and Skjör the crazy torso, Njada following them). So I loaded a previous game and went to do something else, but now I'm worried it might happen again when I fast travel again to the same area. Unfortunately, I was not able to talk to Njada after the fight, so I don't know if she was still my follower or not. Anyway, do anyone have any idea about why this could happen? Is it frequent for Aela to be met at totally random places in the world? Or for Skjor to behave like this? Thanks!

text: Each racetrack has two or more elements. If the racing dragon matches the track's element, it'll have a sight advantage. Is there a disadvantage if the dragon is of the _opposite_ element from the track element? For example, if I use a Blazing Dragon (air, fire) on the Cherry Road track (plant, earth, fire), it will have an advantage on the fire parts, be neutral on the plant parts, but will it be neutral or have a disadvantage on the earth parts, since air is the opposite of earth?

title: Why does RollerCoaster Tycoon (original) on Windows 7 display a black screen on launch?

text: I'm currently trying to avoid Windows XP mode since the Windows 7 installation itself is a VM (running on a Mac Mini). Regardless, here's my description of the problem. The game successfully launches, but displays a black screen. You can hear the music play on the title world. I end up using ALT-TAB to switch out of full screen mode so I can quit. I know that once I get the game into windowed mode it'll work fine, however I've tried numerous command line switches to no avail. I have the following compatibility options currently set:   * Compatibility mode: Windows XP SP2 (also have tried Windows 98/ME and Windows 95)   * Disable visual themes (at least required for the save dialog to appear)   * Disable desktop composition   * Run this program as Administrator (otherwise I know the game cannot save) I have also tried (no success):   * Run in 256 colors. I've also switched to the Windows 7 Basic theme and 800x600 resolution.   * Run in 640x480 resolution.   * Disable display scaling on high DPI settings. I've tried the original game, with and without Corkscrew Follies installed, and with and without all known available patches. So I'm looking to get the display working, regardless of method. If there's a command-line switch I can use to force a windowed mode (I've tried `-w`, `-win`, `-window`, `-windowed`) that would be just as fine.

I was under the assumption that skins came in all 5 conditions, Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested, Well-Worn, and Battle-Scarred. Does this hold true for all other skins, or is this skin just a fluke?

title: Does Deus Ex: Human Revolution support a third-person camera on consoles?

text: I'm one of those people that has developed an inability to play many first- person shooters, but not all. Since a demo doesn't appear to be coming out for Deus Ex: Human Revolution I'm wondering if this game supports a third-person camera on the consoles (PS3/Xbox 360). From what I can tell online it appears that the certain actions result in the camera moving outside of the main character, but I'd like to be sure that's the only time. And since the stealth aspect is being mentioned a lot, and I can't see playing Metal Gear Solid 4 from the first-person perspective ... (I'd ask if anyone who has difficulty playing first-person shooters has tried the game, but I know that's extremely subjective. Heck, I can play BioShock but not Dead Space, Just Cause 2 and most other third-person games, but Red Dead Redemption makes me ill.)

How large is the explosion radius compared to that of a regular creeper? *Note: anecdotal evidence may not be sufficient alone, as it may be difficult to determine "bigger craters because of more blast power" and "bigger craters because the blast power covers a larger area". It could even be both at once.

title: BuildCraft waterproof pipes and water/oil pumping, does liquid get lost?

text: I found an oil well the other day and have now successfully pumped it dry into a ton of tanks, some 450 tank blocks, spread over 25 high tank towers. Now I want to refine it. The question is, do I have to empty each tank at a time, to avoid loosing liquid? All the tanks are placed next to each other, and let's say I attach a wooden pipe to each, with a running redstone engine above, and then hook everything together into one long pipe network ending up in the refinery. Obviously the refinery will not be able to refine quick enough that all that oil will flow at the same speed from each tank as it would if I was emptying just one tank, so the pipes will be full pretty quick. Will the pumps stop drawing oil from the tanks when this happens, so that I can just set it all up and forget about it, assuming I create enough tanks to hold all the fuel that is. Or do I have to "micromanage" it by emptying out one oil tank at a time, to avoid filling the pipes and then losing liquid?


title: What is the best way to make a dog remember its name?

text: I have just bought Nintendogs for my 5 year old daughter, but it has been a really frustrating experience so far. It takes for ever to name the dog, and once we have finally managed that it keeps forgetting its name. What is the best/quickest way to name your dog, and make sure it remembers it so that we can get started on the actual game?


title: How can I tell which weapon is rare in Mass Effect 3?

text: In Mass Effect 3 multiplayer store, you get to purchase various packs at different prices. For instance, the Spectre Pack gives you at least one Rare item out of the 5 random items that you receive. My question is, how can I tell which weapon is rare, which is uncommon and which is common? Essentially if I want a specific weapon, knowing its rarity allows me to decide which pack to stick to buying.


title: Will using the unofficial official combat mod disable achievements?

text: So the new unofficial official Combat Mod from CD PROJEKT RED just came out and I wonder if you will still be able to gain achievements on Steam when you are using this mod to play the game?

title: Do Iron Golems Regenerate Health?

text: My player-created NPC village just spawned an Iron Golem, and my pal Endy the Enderman decided to teleport right in to introduce himself (Unlucky for Endy). I chose to watch the battle rather than get involved, and the Iron Golem took a few hits in the process. It won, but I'm wondering whether it regenerates health, or whether the next hit from a mob is going to down it and leave my poor villagers defenceless until another spawns. So, do Iron Golems regain health over time? Or Is it possible to "repair" them at least?


title: Does the "Magic 2013 Gold Deck Bundle" actually contain any decks?

text: From the sound of it, I would assume the "deck bundle" gives you access to all the decks. However, according to this page, the only contents of the deck pack are deck **keys** , and according to this page, if you buy a deck **key** for a deck that you don't already own, you don't get anything. So, if I don't already own all the decks, will the deck pack actually give me anything?


title: How important is my pet and the fish I feed him?

text: Ok, so I have this cute pet that I picked. It attacks things and I can use fish to make it uber. The problem I have is that I don't seem to care very much about him, except that his trips to town are very convenient. What I want to know, in hopes that I will find new appreciation for my pet, is how important he really is to my survival and progress. Here's the question: **Assuming I give him the best collar and tags I can find, how much of a difference can fish really make?** I have searched for questions regarding the effects of various fish and therefore understand their various effects, but they don't seem significant. As a result, I seldom bother to feed fish to my pet. I've even assigned a hotkey to fish feeding, but still seldom bother. The problem is probably that I do not know what percentage of my DPS is generated by my pet, and therefore do not account for him whatsoever. (He is useful but unaccountable.)


title: Sam Fisher voice actor

text: I just started playing the new Splinter Cell Blacklist. And I wonder if the voice actor of Sam Fisher is a new voice actor. **Is there a new voice actor for Sam Fisher in Splinter Cell Blacklist?** It does not seem to be the same "darkish" voice as in the other games of the series.

text: I'm currently trying to do inferno ponies with monk but getting melted fairly often. Are there any monks out there who can solo farm ponies in inferno? Can you share what stats you have? Stuff like - what your resist all; armour; hp; dps; loh; etc... I'm guessing you're using shield instead of dw?


title: What are some tactics to fortify villages and their population against outside attack?

text: I recently discovered my homely village has been ransacked by a marauding horde of zombies. They managed to get inside one of my large apartment houses and wiped out all but two (!) of the village population. Because the attack was inside a building, my Iron Golems were helpless, rose- wielding bystanders. As the population is (hopefully, albeit slowly) rebuilt, what more can I do to fortify my village against outside attack?


title: How do I keep a summoned EnderDragon in a cage?

text: I did /Summon in minecraft and I summoned an ender dragon. My friend and I thought it would be cool if we built a cage for the ender dragon. We build a huge cage out of end stone, obsidian and bedrock. We summoned the ender dragon in the cage, and it could fly right out of the cage. mobGriefing was off, and we used blocks that the ender dragon couldn't destroy. Is there any way we can keep him from flying out of a cage? The cage was definitely big enough for at least 3 ender dragons.


title: Why do equipped items keep disappearing from my follower?

text: I am using Kharjo and every time I put a weapon on him it disappears! I tried enchanting the weapon and naming it, and even dropping it and making him pick it up and it still keeps happening. So far it has only occurred with Daedra weapons that i am aware of - I am still testing the issue. What is causing this? Is anyone else having this problem?


title: Is there any logical reason for enemy trainers to use Magikarp?

text: I wonder why in single player mode Pokemon trainers (some of them even _exclusively_ ) use Magikarp that only knows how to perform Splash. According to this question Splash never even does real damage, unless it's out of PP which takes way too many turns to be a feasible tactic, but who knows maybe that is actually what they're going for? I kind of get that fishermen could employ this tactic, as they probably have a lot of patience fishing their whole life, but why would the real trainers try to… Are they leeching off their opponent's PP this way? Is there any explanation why a trainer in single player mode would fight somebody with Magikarps that don't know any other moves than Splash?


title: Is the amount of sand finite?

text: > ## Note: This is a question about Minicraft. Not Minecraft I have picked up most of the sand in the desert on the island where I have built myself a home and I am now wondering if it's possible in anyway to "grow" back the desert. I want to have sand spread so I can pick it up again.

title: Where's the key to the cells on level 2?

text: I'm on level two now, and I went past the part where it says "Shelter Left; Cells Right". I went into the shelter, and now I'm in the cells, but I don't see how to open them. I see a keyhole, but I can't find a key. I've looked all over the level, but I don't know how to open any of the cells. ![The keyhole and exiting door](http://i.stack.imgur.com/2NQ49.jpg) ![My current map location](http://i.stack.imgur.com/Iqx9F.jpg)


title: Effective placement of claymores in BF3

text: Recently i've been trying to use claymores but I never seem to be able to position them in a way that makes them effective. I'm aware that you can avoid them by crouching or going prone but in the situations where i've used them, the other team seems to just freely walk into them without triggering them. There was one instance where one was planted several feet from the sliding door inside the Metro near the Cafe entrance and someone actually scaled over it like it was a fence? If I want to protect a doorway, how many approx feet in distance should the claymore be placed to effectively cover any attempt to enter the doorway?


title: Why is everyone trying to ram me?

text: So I was trying to steal a muscle car during one of the side-missions available through Saintsbook, but while driving the car back to the chop shop something rather peculiar happened. Each and every car on the road veered into my path just as I was about to pass it, making it amazingly difficult for me to reach my destination. I've never seen this happen before, and I was wondering what is it that causes this behavior. I'd certainly like to avoid triggering this in the future.


title: Problems installing the Ultimate Vault Hunters pack with season pass

I checked all the steam settings and launching options but I don't see anything related to what I want to do. Any ideas? I'm using the Windows steam client on Windows 7.


title: How do you access all the extra areas on the map?

text: If you go onto the map and press X to zoom, you can see that there are dozens of other locations on the map that do not come into the main campaign. I have unlocked a couple, although I am not sure how, and they are levels that give you waves of enemies to try and survive. Are all the other locations like this and how do we access them?


title: Do the bonus levels have infinite waves or is there a large reward at the end?

text: I have played through two of these extra levels, but left them until I started playing on Hero difficulty. Because of this, it is quite hard to survive for too many rounds. So I wanted to ask, do these bonus levels have infinite waves or not? And, before I take the time to try to beat these levels, is there a big pay out at the end?


title: Do gamepads always deteriorate from extended disuse and is there anything to be done about it?

text: I've owned two USB gamepads for PC now. The first was some noname pad I got really cheap in a supermarket. The second was (and is) Logitech Rumblepad 2. In both cases I've had the same problem: When I first bought the gamepad I played with it and for a while all was well. Then I moved on to other games and the gamepad was put away in a drawer. After a year or two I came again upon a game which played better on the gamepad. But now the joysticks seem to have heavily deteriorated. They are wildly inaccurate and sometimes even jump around randomly without any action from myself. Calibration makes things a bit better, but it can do only so much to compensate, and the end result is still unsatisfactory. Is this inevitable? Are gamepads supposed to be changed every two years? Or perhaps I should have stored them in some special way? Is there anything that can be done now perhaps?

title: Do abilities stick around after a champion's death?

text: So there are a couple different categories of abilities that I'm wondering about. They may all act the same, but I think I've noticed them behave differently in game. DoT effects? I assume Teemo's poison will continue to tick even if Teemo dies. Anivia's Wall? Does it last the entire duration regardless of Anivia being alive or not? Or does it disappear on death? What about Demacian Standard cast right before death by J4? Does that continue to apply the team buff for the duration or is it gone when he dies? Gragas' Barrels and Lux's Lucent Singularity? I've seen these disappear at death and hang around after the caster's death. My theory is that they will stick around if they have stopped moving by the time the caster has died.


title: Is there any consequence to using "Try Again" after failing during court?

text: Every game in the Ace Attorney series has featured a "strikes" or "life bar" system during courtroom phases, where you receive an instant Game Over if you present incorrect evidence or make mistakes too many times. In previous games in the series, you'd have to restart from your last save after earning a Game Over in this way, but in Dual Destinies, the Game Over screen is immediately followed by a "Try Again" option, which returns you to the exact spot you were just at, and refills your life bar to maximum. Being that it seems like this sort of negates the life bar's reason for existing in the first place, is there any consequence at all to selecting Try Again? Does it affect anything differently later on in the case/game, or does it make no difference?


title: Can I toggle the Helm On/Off in Elder Scrolls Online?

What other symptoms can be combined to create a combo and what the effects of each combo are?


title: Do large Minecraft servers run on multiple different machines?

text: Having played on a number of servers, there are often lingering references to multiple different "servers", or a "server" being down, so you can't play That Minigame You Like today. **Does this mean a large server actually runs on multiple different machines, or is this just some other effect at work?** As far as I can tell, the Minecraft protocol doesn't seem to support a federated or handoff system, but I could be wrong. There are servers with incredibly large population numbers, numbering in the thousands, and this could explain how it scales.


title: How do I prevent friendly fire *from* allies?

text: In the question, "Would I take friendly fire damage if I had a mage as companion?", we learn that followers can deal friendly fire damage _to_ the player character. So, **how do I prevent followers, conjured/reanimated creatures and other allies from dealing friendly fire damage _to_ the player character, or improve their AI to avoid them hitting the player character?** I'm playing on the PC, so console commands and mod solutions are welcome. Note: I'm talking about preventing friendly fire damage _from_ allies _to_ the player character, not the other way around. I am already aware of console commands and in-game abilities that will prevent friendly fire damage _from_ the player character _to_ some allies.


title: Is the yellow claptrap in arid badlands an easter egg or something else?

title: Restoration trainer dead at the college of winterhold. Where can I now buy higher level spells?

text: So the restoration trainer at the college of winterhold, Colette Marence, is gone. I don't think I killed her myself, but she's gone, and I have been trying to wait for her. I've already searched the college, and there is one bed in the hall of countenance that does't have the status "Owned". Assuming that the character is dead, and she apparently is the only one that teaches higher level restoration spells, where can I get them then?

title: How to beat 5 supports in League of Legends Blind pick

text: I recently played against Taric, Sona, Janna, Soraka, and Lulu in a blind pick. They all had Heal. We got destroyed. We were: Warwick, Fiora, Swain, Nautilus, and Caitlyn. I jungled Warwick. Fiora went top (probably the reason we lost), Swain mid, and Nautilus and Caitlyn bot. It was nuts. They had destroyed 6 towers and gotten Baron by level 14. What would have been the best strategy for beating this team?


title: Gaining Hjerim with a peace treaty

text: Is it possible to gain Hjerim if you negotiate a peace treaty in the "Season Unending" quest without taking sides? The wiki says that in order to gain Hjerim, you must complete certain quests for either side of the civil war (either the Fort Neugrad mission or the Defeat the Stormcloaks mission). However, if those quests never occur, can you still become Thane of Windhelm and gain Hjerim?

title: In Empire: Total War, when a building can fit 1000+ soldiers, why can only one 120-soldier unit enter?

text: In Empire: Total War, sometimes garrisonable buildings can supposedly fit thousands of soldiers inside - you can see this by hovering your mouse over them and looking at their information - but you can usually only tell one unit to actually enter the building. Other units might initially march to the building, but once the first unit's inside, other units will just stop right outside the door. There are also cases when this is not so. I remember, on at least one or two occasions, moving two separate units into the same building at the same time. Why is it then that, much of the time, only one unit will enter a building, regardless of how many men can supposedly fit into it? Is there some sort of special way you have to click on the thing to get subsequent units to go in or something? Is this just an outright bug? Thanks.

Now I have this setup: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/63aic.jpg) But I don't like it..

title: No more mulligan?

text: In Magic 2013, you have the option before a duel to mulligan, or to ditch your hand and draw a new set of 7 cards, and then 1 less card for each mulligan thereafter. However, after playing with the free version of Magic 2014 for iOS, I have yet to encounter this option. I do seem to notice that my draw always seems to have at least 2 lands and no more than 4, but that just might be due to the small sample count. Is mulligan gone for 2014? Or does this functionality get "unlocked" when I purchase the complete version?


title: Is it possible to reset sealed deck slots?

text: In Magic 2014, you are given two slots for sealed deck play. Each slot corresponds to the random card selection you get when you first use the slot, and there doesn't seem to be a way to delete or free up this slot so you can generate another random set of cards. Is it possible, through out-of-game means, to reset your sealed deck slots? Like deleting and redownloading the game, deleting the saved game somehow if it exists, etc.

title: Little Big Planet levels site

text: I'm looking for a website that contains up-to-date information on the best user-created Little Big Planet levels so far (for both 1 and 2). A Google search turned up a bunch of top 10 lists from 2008, and some user-created sites that were clearly just a random smattering and which didn't have many of the best levels I already know about. Best can be defined by the site either based on the in-game stats, but or by some person with a good editorial sense for what makes a level good (like the top 10 lists from 2008). I actually prefer the latter, since the former is fairly easy to find in-game. Does anyone know of such a site?


title: How does telepathy work?

text: One particular dungeon level was swarming with floating eyes. Now, I don't like being watched, so I felt there was only one recourse. A few bits of flying magic later, I ate a floating eye corpse. Now, I'm told this conveys telepathy, which is supported by the "You feel a strange mental acuity" message I got. Now I wonder. I got intrinsic telepathy, which I can find nothing about online. What does it do?

title: What's the solution to the Edison / Ford "139" code in Assassin's Creed 2?

text: One of the passwords in Assassin's Creed 2 deals with Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan trying to discredit Nikola Tesla in order to prevent alternating current from freeing the people, or something like that. I'm trying to unlock his secret code. The code is 139 and according to the hint button, the symbols follow a base 3 pattern - "One dot, two dots, one line, one line and one dot, and so on", and the missing symbol has to fit that pattern. When I align "One dot" with the number 1, the solution to 139 seems to be:               One dot     One Line     Three Lines      but when I enter that solution, I get a "Wrong code" indication. When I align one dot with zero, the solution to 139 comes up as:               Two dots     One line and one dot     Three lines and one dot      And that code doesn't work either. Usually there's a clue in the photos provided to explain how to align the cipher wheel, but I can't seem to find that either. There's a symbol in the "Dearborn Independent" that contains two lines and two dots...does that have anything to do with it? **What is the solution to the Edison / Ford 139 cipher, and what clue am I supposed to use to figure the solution out?**


title: When to start or form a teamfight group?

text: In league of legends you always hit a point where just laning is not profitable enough anymore or it's to dangerous. So many players (obviously) team up and attack with multiple players in a single lane. So team-fights are started. My question would be; is there any sort of criteria for players to make the (game-changing) decision to team up and focus lane or ganks?

title: What are the differences between the normal, hard and 'True West' difficulty modes?

text: I initially played the game in normal difficulty. After the first level, the game recommended that I play in 'hard' difficulty, instead. I would like to know how difficulty changes between the difficulty levels. Specifically:   * Do enemy numbers increase, or will their numbers stay the same?    * Or do enemies just have more hit points or deal more damage? Know by how much they are increased?      * Any enemy AI behavior differences? Do they become 'smarter'?    * Any other differences between the difficulty levels?    * Any difficulty differences when you're playing a New Game Plus (separate from the difficulty level you chose to play the New Game+ in)? In 'True West' mode, most of the HUD gets removed. Aside from that, are there other difficulty differences between hard and 'True West' difficulty?


title: Best weapon combo for a rogue (Levelling heirlooms)

text: First question here, I think this is where I would come to ask such a question. So I have just started a new char that is a Rogue, now I'm getting geared with heirlooms for faster levelling and just to make life easier (getting these weapons so I don't have to keep getting new ones). Is there a certain combo of weapons that are best for Rogues? I was thinking 2 daggers but am not sure if that's the best way to go.


title: How to determine the giver Steam profile / id on a gifted item?

text: The Gift Wrap is a Team Fortress 2 item that can be used on another item. When unwrapped, it adds a "Gift from: " description to the wrapped item. However, Steam names are not unique, whereas ID's are. Is there any way to find the original gift giver? Possible motivations include:   * verifying authenticity, as gift wraps are often used to "autograph" / sign items   * idle curiosity, as although items can change hands many times, the gift description is permanent unless overwritten by another gift wrap.


title: How big is the area/radius that prevents neutral creep spawns?

text: It is a known fact that putting wards inside the neutral spawn camps prevents them from spawning but recently, I see our neutrals camps not spawning any creeps. I checked the replay and saw that the opposing team put the ward behind the neutral camp instead of the usual in-front. This is new to me so now I ask how big is the radius(or area) that the game checks? I always thought is was a triangular area in front of the neutral camp. EDIT: If the vision of the neutrals camps prevents them from spawning, then how come this ward does not prevent them from respawning? ![neutral camp respawned](http://i.stack.imgur.com/MYeQB.jpg)
