Enterprise S3 - 99%
Transformed from episodic to a fantastic epic story.
Every episode was a cliff hanger. I watched this season faster than the others.
Favorite Episodes:
1: The Xindi
8: Twilight
10: Similitude
14: Proving Ground
16: Doctor's Orders (Greatly enjoyed, almost felt like a horror)
17: Hatchery
19: Damage (Great moral dilemma)
21: E²
The story was great, a great fit for Enterprise.
I liked the Aquatics the most of the Xindi races.
The story was just the right amount of complexity.
I can't wait to power through season 4!

Planet Earth II - 95%
Great addition to the original, sad that it was only six episodes.
Felt like they were trying to hard to not cover any of the same topics as the original... I wanted more insects and oceans... but o well.
Great visuals and narration.
I wish they didn't push evolution so hard. They could have made a great show and stayed natural.
Cities was my least favorite and maybe Islands was my most favorite.
They were all good and informative.
Especially liked the iguanas hatching and knowing to stay still so that the snakes would miss them.
Gantz: O - 90%
Good enough plot, great animation, just enough character development.
I really enjoyed all the creatures and the transformations.
The rules of the game were good.. Except.... The main hole in the movie...
The main guy and girl make a pinky promise that they would get out of the game and move in together, but the third rule is: Memory wiped and free. There is no way they could keep that promise because they would forget the whole promise after getting out. The movie would have been great if he just chose to get out and be with his brother instead of resurrecting the girl.
The bouncy algorithm was dumb but not surprising.
Still all in all the action was good.

POE Poet Pen VD - 90%
Dual Wield Poet's Pen.
One with Volatile Dead and the other with Unearth.
Barrage in the six link armor to trigger it.
Pretty fun build... Leveling was the fastest ever.
I only played this to level 78.
Good life and lots of Life on hit from the gem in the six link + Thief's Torment ring.
Slightly different play style, running away and keeping the flaming balls on the screen.
It is a good mid season build because the build is noting without the 2x Poet's Pen.
They ran about 50 chaos each...
The Volatile Dead enchant was super expensive due to being new and OP so I never could afford it.

POE Glacial Cascade - 90%
I don't like playing the same build twice but this was supposed to switch to Kinetic Blast and never did... I pushed it much further this time.. 87. Beat uber lab with no problems.
To push it further I would have to stop using Tremor Rod and go to a wand shield for crit but the play style with the double detonate was too good to give up.
I experienced many new maps from the Abyss league and beat the Lich king twice.
Traded for a nice shaped freeze ring.
Also ran with 2x The Long Winter for full cold conversion and extra range.
I feel like this jewel is a pain item because it feels pretty mandatory for the build...
A good build. Easy to level, decent clear speed, fairly cheap gear, decent boss damage.

Enterprise S2 - 95%
Opened with a good conclusion to the season cliff hanger: Shockwave Part II
Many great episodes:
Carbon Creek
A Night in Sickbay
The Communicator
Cease Fire
My most favorite episode was: Regeneration
Great episode about one of the earliest encounters with the Borg. It was fun knowing all about them and watching the characters learn for the first time.
My least favorite episode was: Bounty
Stupid effort to work sex into the show by having T'Pol have to mate due to some infection.
The season cliff hanger was also a great setup for season 3!
I will definitely continue watching.
Ferdinand - 90%
