GAN 5x5 Rubik's - 100%

 



Finally decided to get a 5x5 after hearing that with knowing how to solve a 3x3, 4x4, and a 5x5 you can solve a NxN. The GAN 5x5 is amazing! The weight, size, and smoothness of motion is outstanding! I can spin the middle layers easily and the magnets work just right. The quality is spectacular. Totally worth splurging for. 

New Insect Displays - 100%

 I found a couple of great new insect displays. 

Never knew that there is such beautiful verity in Cicadas. 

Always wanted a Fulgora laternaria "Peanut-headed Bug"

POE LS Slayer - lvl 100 - 90%

 

Settlers was a pretty good league. I started by following Ziz's suggestions for a gladiator spectral shield throw as the league start and I got to end game and it felt really bad. Bleed DPS was good for clear but the bossing was pathetic. Couldn't even unlock a single void stone and a good shield cost a ton. So, I found a divine and changed to Slayer using Frost Blades of Katabasis. The clear went from good to better but the bossing went from pathetic to far worse. So that was when I gave up and pressed the easy button with a Hierophant using Ice Nova of Frostbolts... After doing all the end game with that and generating a some currency.. I came back to the Slayer and switched over to Lightning Strike. So basically on my third respec it turned out OK.. 

I found a mirror shard and managed to have enough to buy my first ever Progenesis. The Progenesis is broken.. basically turns every build into a tank. 

All in all, this build cost about 80 divines and ended up fast and strong. With all the gear, bossing and clear were both fantastic.
 


Only cost 1 divine and made my EFP go up 50K!



Crafted my own claw.



I got to level 98, my highest ever so far then found this guide and decided to push for level 100. 
It went pretty smoothly, I redid my skills to use The Gull and made it to 100! Level 99 to 100 took about 5 ish hours.
