Not sure what this means. Certain weapons give additional Power (Longsword) or have other dmg production means (Sickle creating more Skull gems, twinblade increasing crit output), so these do potentially decrease match time but it can just as easily contribute to overkill. Damage output is the same for all weapons at all rarities at all levels, ignoring Abilities.

The primary means to stun (a complete row of matched gems) is chance-based, since the production of gems from mana-producing spells is random so the possibility exists that a stun will not result even after all spells are cast and gems are manually matched. What are the other consistent ways? Blackjack? Nice if you are an assassin, but still chance-based. Poison Spirit? Still chance based and basically the same odds as Hammer provided you are running green spells. Cockatrice Juju? ok, not chance based but have fun running a Blue Shaman. The benefit of spells over the hammer is that you know if the enemy has been stunned before moving to the gem-matching phase. But they are not necessarily more consistent than the hammer, just different timing.

TL;DR: I value board control more than damage output when recommending an all purpose best weapon. Obviously Mastery (color) matters so a Green Dwarven Hammer is less useful to a Paladin but that is true of virtually all weapons.

My point in this is to say, there are lots of interesting weapons that give interesting results under certain scenarios but would I recommend the Tome to someone as the best weapon (and consequentially, which weapon to expend rare resources on)? No.

With my other gear (and citadel) I can reliably get a workable start in 1-5 tries in a difficulty x dungeon. The average is about try number 3. So yes, I have to restart a couple of times. But that is a relatively quick thing. Slogging through the battles with my damage not scaling in any way? Not much of a quick thing.

Since you are talking about yellow mana, I assume you are talking about paladin. I have a an epic/35 yellow longsword and two rare dwarven hammers (one red, one green). Assuming I have the shards to level up one of those rare hammers to their full 25, which weapon sounds best for my paladin?

Archguns as both Toxin? Nah. Both of them do better with Heat scaling thanks to the 120% that'll combine with the +60%. Ayanga is kinda trash ever since the nerf, and raw damage approaches are the only thing you're getting on archguns if you're using a tox prog, especially since the latest rad MS addition.

Melees should be Magnetic for Vortex, Electric for Influence, Tox for flexible sloting or Heat for heat inheritance proc strength. Agendus gets slashes from its stances and its projectile gains multiplicative effect from C.O. in case you didn't know.

Also also : you can source usability fixes for the Arca Plasmor from arcanes or warframe buffs. Which then lets you go get that Magnetic Prog to further abuse the fact that Galv Savvy is multiplicative on arca-style projectiles instead of additive.

I really wanted to mention your arca plasmor point, because i personally also run a mag riven plasmor and it is absolutely better than toxin, but thats not something i expect the majority to have so i settled on toxin.

The only really viable build for Melees is combo counter ones with Blood Rush and Weeping Wounds anyway. The latter mod will take care of all the status chance you will ever need which means you will proc Electricity with ease as long as you're on 12x combo counter.

Since the Tenet Agendus already has innate Electricity, and you can give it innate Magnetic that doesn't combine with the innate Electricity, you have an additional element for Melee Influence damage without even investing on 2 other elemental mods which gives versatility. You can also increase the Electricity damage directly in your weapon instead this way. Or you can just go Electric-Magnetic-Gas/Blast/Viral.

The fact that the agendus fires an arca projectile means tesla chain can headshot grouped enemies back and forth multiple times; thats why we increase our electricity multiplier as much as we can to maximize electricity's weight and chance to proc. We do NOT want magnetic interfering with this.

As well as being a creative way of navigating Hyrule, Hylian Pine Cones can be used as a deadly weapon. Remember those Sheikah Slate bombs that you used as a crutch to get through combat encounters and cheese Eventide Isle in Breath of the Wild? Pine cones do the same job, but better.

The installation, which also acts as a bench, is titled The Best Weapon after Nelson Mandela's historic quote, The best weapon is to sit down and talk. It pays tribute to Nelson Mandela's humane ideals of compromise, dialogue, and compassion and other Nobel Peace Prize laureates and their efforts to bring people together to find effective solutions for peace. Commissioned by the Nobel Peace Center, The Best Weapon was first installed outside the UN Headquarters in New York on Nelson Mandela Day in July 2019.

The installation is made from anodized aluminum from Hydro. This aluminium is the world's greenest, with significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions than the industry average. In addition to creating a beautiful surface, the anodized finish of the bench has high corrosion resistance and protection against scratching.

It is produced by Vestre in a completely carbon-neutral process. Bead-blasted and pre-distressed, the sturdy material will ensure the bench's longevity, promoting diplomacy and dialogue for many years to come.

When I'm working as a ghostwriter for people, they sometimes have this anxiety 'I have to tell everything upfront, otherwise people might think I don't know X Y and Z essential facts'. You should have the confidence that they're going to judge you on the whole thing, and if they judge you on half the thing then their judgement's irrelevant. It's having the patience to wait to add the complexity, until the reader is engaged and really wants to know. If you're watching a murder mystery, at some point when you're really into it, you're going to want to know about all the people involved and all the different relationships they have. But if you're hit with it up front, it's 'What am I watching?!'.

Whereas a murder mystery will start with that simple scenario, some people in a room, something has happened, something has changed. You write about change and the fact that we've evolved to detect and respond to change, so that makes it an incredibly strong opening to any story.

Some psychologists I've talked to argue that career progression can depend on storytelling, and that it shouldn't. So I wondered if there's a line to be drawn between your work on storytelling and your new book on thirst for status.

The conscious mind processes reality as a story. We tend to feel like we're moral heroes on fabulous journeys, trying to make everything better for ourselves and the world. That's a particularly powerful form of cognitive bias. But the subconscious reality of that is that we're actually playing games of status. Our striving for status is the moral heroic remixed by the conscious mind: the constant striving for status that people go through, but tell themselves and each other 'I'm being heroic'.

That's what you see in archetypal storytelling too: you've got these heroes on great journeys, but the subconscious reality of these stories is that the heroes are often gaining status. They begin orphaned or destitute, in a position of very low status, and they end up being celebrated and cheered by crowds. The antagonist often goes on the opposite journey, beginning all powerful and ending up humiliated in some way.

Well, Rory's been much more help to me than I have to him. He was the big interview to begin my book Selfie. And he was one of the first people to make me think about perfectionism, we talked about it as a precursor to suicidal thinking. But I do remember interviewing Rory and making quite an effort to draw out some personal stuff from him. That evening I was feeling quite pleased with where we got to, and got a phone call from him worried about what he'd said. He eventually allowed me to use mostly what I wanted to, and it was all the more interesting for his personal insight. It just makes it come alive, the suicide expert having had that impact in his own life.
