I made a barb one time, I didn't even level it to 30. For some reason I don't like barbs in Diablo games. I tend to use the WIzard or Demon Hunter only.


I played a version of the Leap/Earthquake Barbarian with Boulder Toss and it was silly fun. Aiming Leap on consoles is a little iffy, periodically I would Leap over walls and into a different room during GR runs.

Yeah, "THE cure for cancer" has really always been a misnomer, unless a miracle happens.

True, although this does indicate it works on many types of cancer so it is closer than a lot of treatments if it pans out.

I think about this one a lot

Back as a kid you would wonder about something and youd have to wait until you could find a book or encyclopedia, or find someone smart to ask.

Sometimes you would just wonder about something for years.

And even if you found an encyclopedia it was more than likely at least several years old, so you were out of luck if you were looking for something recent.

Doubt it

Seems much more likely that a technical failure would trigger an automated alert compared to some overreaching plot to secretly test preparedness and successfully keep a lid on it

If they wanted to test preparedness they would have taken steps to educate the public about what to do and where to go. From the sounds of things online most folks just stayed at home, went to the beach, or started sleeping with their siblings.

You're probably right, but what better way to see what'd actually happen than just send the warning and watch?


They didn't test the full system though, normally there are supposed to sirens that sound beforehand and those weren't triggered as part of the test.

Yeah, that seems like it would defeat some of the purpose of using a shotgun for home defense in the first place.

I did shoot a 10 gauge magnum once, my grandfather used it for goose hunting. It was a heavier gun overall, I used to joke that the barrel was long enough that he could just hit the birds with it, so the recoil probably wasn't as bad but definitely not something I'd want to spend a whole day firing. (Or carrying.)
