With an atomic clock? -
Great game up until this last battle, Jeff. What frustration!!!!!! Completely unfun. A stupid way to end an otherwise enjoyable game.

Water from straight from the tap works best for me. Add a bit of salt or detergent and aim for the eyes!

Maybe Corsicans follow their own grammatic rules. -

A reduction in damage for DW could be balanced by a bonus to Parry or some other Bladeshield option. Blocking with one sword could allow an opportunity to counter in the same turn. DW adds to decision-making options for the player. It doesn't need to be just straight-up-and-down damage vs defence.

Fair enough. Sorry Alorael.

Slarty has the main areas covered - exercise, routine and caffeine. Try limiting caffeine to mornings only and seriously limit (or avoid) energy drinks - they can really mess up your sleep patterns. Simple mental exercises to clear your mind can help. It shouldn't be too hard to find a seminar to learn de-stressing techniques or ask your doctor. But mostly, get some stand alone physical activity into your routine. Commuting by bike or on foot, or physical activity as part of a job doesn't count. A long walk somewhere pleasant is good to let brain activity settle. Good luck, Nic. Oh. Camomile tea before bed is good.

Like it.

F1 is also an abbreviation for Formula 1 Motorsport. I wonder, without context, which more people would identify F1 as.

Ward of Elements helps out also.

The damage of bows in the early part of the game make them supplementary at best - the exception being the Acid Bow. Combined with Shield Breaker, acid damage can bring down an opposition mage or priest in a few rounds, or a pesky archer while dealing with enemy tanks. However Throwing Weapons tend to keep pace with the game and can flatten lesser foes in one hit. The bonuses awarded to a DT Nephil (plus the blessing from Dharmon) bring Throws into the game (granted, with an extra point of Str.). The Sharpshooter bonus to my DT Slith is enough to make a bow at Dmg 36 an effective Spell Point saver.
