Stratagems

1.) Commando

2.) Orbital Napalm

3.) Precision Strike or 500

4.) Mounted Machine gun encampment thing

Guns

1.) Grenade Pistol / Fire pistol

2.) Scortcher / sometimes Pummler

Grenades

Mainly thermite, sometimes the new gas ones

Generally within my group I'm pushing objectives as the group I play with get caught up endlessly killing (fun, not always productive lol).

I'm a huge fan of the HMG encampment and hope they had a few additional variations of it.

For bots I also run the HMG, but with the shield pack or dropable generator.

I'm very glad I replaced my auto-open QR code app (At the recommendation of someone here) with one that shows you the preview link...

Wow, the best part being that the octopus "punched" opportunistic fish who don't help in the hunt.

Pfft, says you.

Note: I also play Yoshi by standing on the edge and spamming the tongue.

Spektr-R | Decommissioned, single array, 10 meter diameter

From your link: "The very high angular resolving power was achieved in conjunction with a ground-based system of radio-telescopes and interferometrical methods, "

HALCA | Decommissioned, single array, 8 meter diameter

From your link: This orbit allowed imaging of celestial radio sources by the satellite in conjunction with an array of ground-based radio telescopes" ... "the project was eventually cancelled in 2011 due to increasing costs and the difficulties of achieving its science goals"

Orion | "It is believed that this refers to the diameter of the main antenna, which might be well in excess of 100 m", potentially you're correct! Oh. These are ground facing dishes that aren't use for scientific purposes and are highly classified.

The same is done in space, you realize that...

No, it isn't. The radio astronomy done in space is for Gamma rays, x-rays, UV and IR. Things the atmosphere blocks.

What's done on the ground is for much larger wavelengths (+1m) which, again, requires massive equipment that is currently is not feasible to send up.

The fix isn't to eliminate StarLink, I agree. The fix in my opinion is to have stricter controls from the ITU about how much interference a device can produce.

Put that shit in space like they always should have

So which is it? It's already done in space, or that's the direction we should go?

Even your explanation about your original comment being "extremely easy to comprehend" has two opposing statements.

 
 

Could be an expansion release, guild drama, random encounter, etc.

Mine would be when I was a newer player doing a Twilight Arbor dungeon run with veterans and I enabled "Plant Mode".

I was the classic Longbow ranger with Stalker who had no idea wtf was going on. We got to the wardens on Leurent's path (up) and it was not going well, I kept going down. The others in my party kept reviving me but in doing so were downed and then killed. The champ probably had about 2% health left when I was the last one standing and I am sweating IRL - mainly nervous that I'm going to get chewed out by the other party members if I can't finish the fight.

One of the party members types "Just spam all your buttons!" so I start clicking anything and everything (yes, was a mouse ability clicker back then... how times have changed).

I don't think I had ever used my elite at that point, mainly because I didn't understand it. I just knew it said something about plants. Ended up clicking Take Root and was instantly felt dread. My character was locked down and I couldn't move as I became enshrouded with plant matter.

As if to further cement the absolute embarrassment that was washing over me, the same party member goes "Plant mode?!".

I seriously considered alt+F4'ing to hide from my shame - only to realize that I wasn't taking any damage anymore... And that there were seed turrets spawning all over as if to save me. They started attacking the Champ and it ticked down another % or so - it was so close to dying!

Then my protective plant shroud disappeared and I was running again, desperately trying to live. However, I was still so low from before I had initially cast the elite that I was quickly downed. Instantly I spammed "Lick Wounds" (As many downs in the open world had taught me).

As I inched closer to death another party members says "OMG It's so close". Fractions of a second before I was about to die my pet starts reviving me - and it happens. One of the slow arching shots of the plant mortar near me lands the final blow on the champion and I revive - I was absolutely stunned.

My party was absolutely ecstatic and kept typing things like "Plant mode ftw" and "Salad mvp". In that moment I felt like I was a seasoned GW2 player just like the rest.

Definitely died to the root attack from the nightmare tree just moments after that though.
