I grew up with electric so I have no real issue with it. This one is just really old. Like from the 80s at the earliest. I can't even set my oven properly -- it's just got knobs so I have to guess if I'm at exactly the right temp or not haha

I noticed stage 6 is finally out for some people. I'm thoroughly underwhelmed by my virus. I need a better strain. Butterfly Bruise is also only 6 stages so that one could be done quick, which is good. I should be able to find some biters once I claim this skin.

i use induction cooker at home. it heat damn fast. sometimes too fast if not handled properly. but it safe since no fire and only heat when correct appliances is placed on top. i always forget that i have something on the stove, and this thing had save my life countless of times :)

I love the idea of induction heating, especially now that there are combo stoves so I don't necessarily have to get rid of my current pots and pans. I just need house so I can get one haha

haha. they are cheap. at least the stand alone one. the pots and pans are expensive though. that's why i'm over protective of my pots and pans.

Once I'm out of this apartment I may look into that. My bf and I have another roommate and we've shared most of our pots/pans. I'm really protective of my fancier pans (springform pans, loose-bottomed pans for tarts, etc.), which is fine since I'm the only one who bakes here. My bf can't cook so I'll never have to worry about him messing up a pan :P

Ouch... Yeah those pans aren't too cheap either haha. Live and learn I guess! Cooking/baking is not the cheapest hobby, but it's very satisfying :)

ouch indeed, but well, learn something. and the price isn't far off with other induction pan, so no big loss. cooking are not cheap at first. but actually they save a lot of money. ever since i bought a cheap countertop oven, my savings on food go further. pastries are waaaay cheaper homemade :)

AND you get way more :) The only expensive part of most pastries is butter since it's gotten pricier.

yesssss. for 5 dollars of ingredients you can get maybe 20-30 dollars worth of pastries at least. i just use cheap margarine instead :P

I've never used margarine lol. I don't mind shelling out for butter, it's decent chocolate that kills me. But it's SO worth it for decadent fudgy brownies. Less worth it for tempering just because it's a pain, but truffles are tasty. It's still way cheaper than buying them, but it's very time-consuming. I just need more molds since I want to do truffles for Christmas instead of cookies. Cookie decorating is way too stressful. I did a bunch of cut outs this past year, and decided that in the future I'm just doing snowflakes so I only need one or two icing colors. I'm not patient enough to do lots of colors haha

i know right. and the mold is expensive too! so i just stick with cookies, cakes or bread type stuff. i don't even decorate them. just when they are not too hot to eat, the devour begins. they taste better just after baking.

thanks to your continuous advice all over the battle forum, i finally buy unstable sample syringe. and it was worth the price :) flamagia went from "win if lucky" to "yes, i can win this". hahaha. feel so broke right now, but happy.

it's really your best ice blocker you have access to unless you find a sandreaver or wotp which won't happen. it is probably your best t10 option though unless you can find a tempest gauntlet too but that's even more expensive.

oh yeah. it is the best so far. didn't realize we lack reliable ice blocker. rapier of error, Sierrac Basal Ice Flail and ice king glove all have their weakness. i've been using pandamonium and igniteus combo all this time for that.
