Bataille: forum

Not sure if this forum or the Achievements forum is the right place for this question, but here goes:

Does one need to possess all seven of the rotten items at the same time in order to meet the criteria for the 'Spoiled Rotten' honor? Or does one only need to have found them at one time or the other? (Thus can sell them off immediately on the item market, due to their putrid odor...)

He, who spends his time digging around in garbage cans, greets you!

But don't worry... if you fail the exam the first time, they will give you a chance to retake it.

Newbie gym progression question: Does one have to join a gym in order to unlock the next one? Or can one completely pass over a gym?

Context: I'm currently training at 'Pour Femme' and see that I have almost unlocked the next Light-Weight Gym: 'Davie's Den'. It would appear from reading the wiki that 'Davie's Den' does not train speed, and this month my faction's rotating Steadfast bonus is 14% for speed training (and 0% for Str, Def and Dex).

Given the Steadfast perk, I assume it would make sense to continue training at 'Pour Femme' to the end of the month, even though I've unlocked 'Davie's Den'? And further, when I've accumulated enough gym expeience would it be possible to skip Davie's Den entirely and directly join the last Light-Weight gym: Global Gym?

Thank you!

Sorry for the newbie question, but what is to be gained by selling items anonymously on the item market and paying the 10% commission to do so?

If it is—as I suspect—to protect the seller from potential muggers, how large a selling price, in your opinion, would justify taking such action?

If it is for some other purpose please enlighten me!

Thanks!

Hi there, newbie here. I've failed twice on an EASY Duke mission called 'Rolling in It' where I'm tasked with mugging an opponent equipped with a Claymore Sword.

I'm new to the game, new to fighting, new to reading and analysing attack logs... so your advice would be very much appreciated.

In the first fight I used pepperspray and then tried to repeatedly stab my opponent with my Macana. Log here:

In my second fight I started the fight with a flash grenade and then used my primary weapon (Benelli M4 Super), my second weapon (Glock) and my Macana. In rather willy-nilly fashion... and lost again. Log here:

My armor: Full Body Armor for trunk and arms, Leather Helmet, Leather Gloves, Leather Pants and Hiking Boots.

Can some kind soul examine the logs and help me figue out what I should try next?

I'm really feeling lost here.

Thanks in advance and kind regards!

Note: I'm not using TamperMonkey but manually loaded the script in PDA.

Hi,

I have just updated the script on PDA and am not sure where to put my API key, in the following:

reg("Set API Key", async () => {
            const current = GM_getValue('OCLM_API_KEY', '');
            const value = prompt(
                "Enter your Torn API key (Minimal Access required):",
                current || ""
            );

Thanks!

I'm only at CS 31 but so far am loving your script. Thank you for making it!

This looks great! Is it PDA compatible?

The Flight Club is great! And makes flying life super easy!

Especially with the new revamped system for Season V.

The Flight Club is Torn's largest trading block...

But more than that... it's like the EU of Torn...

Diverse yet civilized.

Read it all and loved it.

Thanks for the blow by blow narrative of your first days in Torn NuRaahl!

Thank you.

The world would be a better place with more Samaritans!

Peace.

Keeps unexpectedly resetting back to 0. I know that's the intended "long press" behavior but it still occasionally happens with the shortest of 'taps'. Note: I'm using the latest script version with Torn PDA on an iPad.

Excellent! LOL!

Now that you are enjoying the good life on a fully maxed-out PI Baddest, you are probably also enjoying an additional +2% on your gym gains as well. 😊

Sorry to hear of your sudden eviction and divorce Baddest.

At least you got the 250 day married honor, 'Fascination'.

(Sexiest honor in the game IMHO)

Thank you Aristophanes (the librarian) for reminding me of Aristophanes (the comic playwright)!

And stay well in all you do.

What day is it now? I've lost track. But in honor of Aristophanes (yes I know our Aristophanes' namesake is the librarian, not the playwright, but still...) another link to one of Aubrey Beardsley's illustrations to the ancient Greek playwritght's Lysistrata... This time at the Victoria and Albert museum in London.

On the fourth day of the Great Aristophanes giveaway... and after having received, with many thanks, a Xanax and two licence plates, I went looking for the erotic prints made by Aubrey Beardsley for the illustrated edition of Aristophanes' comic play Lysistrata, a facsimile of which I owned in my youth but is long gone...

Congratulations on this achievement AQ! Well done man!

Day 3 of Aristophanes the librarian's give-away game and here I humbly submit another quote from Aristophanes the playwright's play, 'Knights' (critiquing the politicians of his time and sadly, ours):

“You possess all the attributes of a demagogue; a screeching, horrible voice, a perverse, crossgrained nature and the language of the market-place. In you all is united which is needful for governing” (Knights 217-219).

On day one I received a Xanax from Aristophanes. On day two I found a quote from his namesake, the ancient

Greek playwright, which I liked and found appropriate for this time in which we are living...

“You [demagogues] are like the fishers for eels; in still waters they catch nothing, but if they thoroughly stir up the slime, their fishing is good; in the same way it’s only in troublous times that you line your pockets” (Knights 864-67).

Good luck to you all!

Mob is love, Mob is life.
