Obelisk of Theodosius Puns

Thank you

Say it with me.

Y’all know the story.

In’na first of days, come to be that Man and Snake, they both live in Magnolia Garden. They come there to visit on wisdom where Yah can’t see, all quiet, all holy. But Yah, he already found out about Magnolia Garden, and he come down off that cloud with his bow and ax, fin to split Man down his middle seam and steal Snake’s prize.

“You gwan go through it, boy,” Snake had said to Man, and Man, he knew it. “Chop me up. Take a piece of that Revelation Heart and cook it up real nice. You gwan need that revelation to find your way back here after you’re gone.”

So Man does what he says, and he splits Snake up with his axe into thirteen pieces, and takes his Revelation Heart, and cooks it up real nice. He does this right outside of Atlanta, in the Magnolia Garden. He swallow a piece, and then he throw the rest way up high in a magnolia tree where Yah cain’t see. But just as it go down his throat, Yah, he gwan in in the Garden.

Man cain’t wrestle with Yah, and Snake cain’t neither. Yah, he already chased all the snakes out of St. Louis, which is why they came down to Magnolia Garden. So Yah grabs Man by his heels and his hair and pulls him straight down the middle and tears him clean in half. And that part’s just like the Sooner version: from the left part of his body, you get Sister Eve; from the right, you get Brother Adam.

They’s confused, the two of them, Brother Adam and Sister Eve. They got an ache, and that ache -- y’all feel it now, brothers and sisters? -- that ache is the scar where they got split.

And so they go to Yah, and they tell him, “Pappy Yah, I ain’t feelin’ good. I got an ache down deep. I think I’m hungry.” And Pappy Yah, he don’t want to let them know that ain’t neither of them a whole person, and that’s why they’re hurting. So he tell them, “You ain’t hungry and there ain’t no reason to be hungry. Don’t you eat nothin’ in Magnolia Garden.”

And Snake, he dead. Ain’t nobody to tell them different. And so this goes on: Brother Adam, he come down to Pappy Yah, and he say, “I ain’t feelin’ so good,” and Pappy Yah, he says that Magnolia Garden is paradise, and there ain’t no reason to feel bad. And Sister Eve, she come down to Pappy Yah, and she say, “I’m so hungry,” but Pappy Yah says there ain’t no food in Magnolia Garden. And they all miserable, every last one of them.

But Snake? They set out a call to every dragonfly and every firefly, and they all come runnin’ from all over the South to tend t

Generally speaking, I can understand that for such an important figure, Theodosius would not simply let his escape slide, and certainly would have soldiers tracking him down.

However, I do hope to find any comtemporary, or lacking those, as close as possible, record of his suicide.

The Roman Emperor Constantine I (272-377), convocated the First Council of Nicæa, the reunion of christian sects to organizate the doctrines of the christianism in 325 A.D., but, the christianism only became the oficial religion of the Empire in 380, during the reign of Theodosius, with the Edict of Tessalonica. Why?

#Here's a current spreadsheet that you should be able to copy and check off the codes as you go, I'll update it as we find more - let me know if I screwed something up somehow

From /u/Sepherik: "I created a google document to make the solutions at the end a bit easier to flip through while brainstorming for what they might mean. Here is the shared version.Path of Time - Sundial"

#EDIT: We should now be back on track for codes

If you are missing a lore entry, you might have missed one of the ones between 3-10 as I moved them down one earlier to accommodate for moving what used to be 3 to 11 to have it in the chronological order in which they appeared - my apologies for any time I may have made you waste redoing some codes

Switching characters after unlocking the sundial, unlocks the sundial activity on all characters. I for one really appreciate not having to rebuild the obelisk on each character.

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but the Warden of Nothing strike has 3 enemies that count as Strike Bosses. Use it to complete your Obelisk Weekly bounty fast if you want.

1. The big Minotaur between the 2 train tracks
2. The big McFatty after dismantling minessss yesssss
3. The actual strike Boss (the flamy Servitor)

Edit: as many people suggested: if you don't insta-nuke the finally boss, it will spawn 2 more bosses. Making it so you can complete the 5 bosses in 1 strike. And yes, it does count of you launch the strike straight from the director in stead of through the strike playlist.

Edit: Since people are making several comments, this was poking fun at when Shadowkeep and other major expansions came out. During Shadowkeep, playerbase was at an all time high, yet no one would match into similar instances with public events, altars and the Vex activity.

Matchmaking is fire.

by John Lord, LL.D.

        Theodosius is lauded as a Christian prince even more     
     than Constantine, and as much as Alfred.  He was     
     what is called orthodox, and intensely so.  He saw in    
     Arianism a heresy fatal to the Church.  "It is our     
     pleasure," said he, "that all nations should steadfastly     
     adhere to the religion which was taught by Saint Peter    
     to the Romans, which is the sole Deity of he Father, the     
     Son, and Holy Ghost, under an equal majesty; and we   
     authorize the followers of this doctrine to assume the      
     title of Catholic Christians."  If Rome under Damasus   
     and the teachings of Jerome was the seat of orthodoxy,   
     Constantinople was the headquarters of the interest which     
     all classes took in the metaphysics of theology.  Said     
     one of the writers of the day: "If you desire a man to     
     change a piece of silver, he informs you wherein the    
     Son differs from the Father; if you as the price of     
     a loaf, you re told in reply that the Son is inferior       
     to the Father; if you inquire whether the bath is ready,   
     the answer is that the Son was made out of nothing."   
     The subtle questions pertaining to the Trinity were the    
     theme of universal conversations, even amid the calam-    
     ities of the times.  
        Theodosius, as soon as he had finished his campaign   
     against the Goths, summoned the Arian archbishop of    
     Constantinople, and demanded his subscription to the     
     Nicene Creed or his resignation.  It must be remem-     
     bered that the Arians were in an overwhelming ma-     
     jority in the city, and occupied the principle churches.     
     They complained of the injustice of removing their    
     metropolitan, but the emperor was inflexible; and    
     Gregory Nazianzen, the friend of Basil, was promoted    
     to the vacant See, in the midst of popular grief and   
     rage.  Six weeks after Theodosius expelled from    
     all the churches of his dominion, both of bishops and   
     of presbyters, those who would not subscribe to the Ni-     
     cene Creed.  It was a great reformation, but effected    
     without bloodshed.    
        Moreover, in the year 381 he assembled a general

• For all the numbers and a full list of guns, the Weapon Stats Spreadsheet has you covered.

• For just things like Barrel and Sight stats, you can go to the BSMT Visual Tool.

• For a complete collection of all my work, you can go to the Massive Breakdown of Massive Breakdowns, The Cumulative Destiny 2 List

Several Things to Note:

• #This is not a comprehensive list of every perk available in the pools, just the ones I recommend.

• Classes are broken down into Impact Archetypes.

• These are strictly my opinions, so I'm very aware that a lot of people will probably disagree with them.

• The Bolded Perk/Perks in each slot mean that I recommend using them the most. If there are no bolded perks, it means that I feel any of the listed perks are fine to use in the slot.

• Pros and Cons are determined by comparing weapons within the same class, not by all weapons in general, and not by only the weapons within the archetype. If you would like a different or more specific comparison than what I have listed, feel free to ask and I can provide one in the comments.

So I was just transferring most of my good Dino's from other worlds into my The Centre. When downloading the gear and Dino's in the Centre my game blue screened and upon reentering there were no dinosaurs at the obelisk or inside of it, is there anyway to get these Dino's back?

I asked this question in r/historicalwhatif to generate activity in the old sub. Too bad this got deleted. Still, I would like to see what would happen if this scenario were to occur.
After the death of Emperor Theodosius I in 395 AD, the Roman Empire was permanently divided by his wishes between his two sons. Arcadius, the older son, got the Eastern half while Honorius, the younger son, got the Western half. What if both Arcadius and Honorius decided to go to war against one another to unify the Roman Empire?

You can complete No Time To Lose (Rapidly defeat 3 or more enemies with kinetic), Finger On The Pulse (300 kills with Pulse Rifles), Three Birds, One Stone (Rapidly defeat 180 enemies with scout rifle) at almost the same time.

Just load up the mission and get to the last part where you hack the computer. Jump up to the Thrall cheese spot (you can do a search in the sub for it as I am not gonna detail it here) and just stand there and let the Thrall pile up and take them all out. When the progress reaches around 95% just suicide and start over from the checkpoint, rinse and repeat.

This, to me, was wayyyyy better than loading Shuro Chi or the Thrallway in the Whisper mission, especially with that scout rifle bounty, that’s such a pain in the ass.

Edit: For a small added bonus, I pop a Rainmaker consumable for some extra glimmer cuz all those thrall are so close to you, might as well capitalize

Hororius, Arcadius, Stilicho, Rufinus, Eutropius, and the Gothic auxiliaries have to divide the east among themselves; while in the west, a tolerant Christian emperor supported by a pagan aristocracy are left in control of an empire not yet compromised by barbarian migrations.

If you take the mechanics and systems from the Obelisks and apply Factions to them, it could make for an interesting new form of the Faction vendors.

You pledge to a Faction just like linking an Obelisk and you can change Faction for a hefty fee, just like resetting an Obelisk. Each vendor could have a currency tied to them that, when turned in, awards armour from packages and then the ability to buy weekly/daily bounties, weapon bounties and upgrades for the vendors. Think more tokens from strikes/crucible/gambit/whatever and the improved bounty progress. There could also be some themed mods thrown in the mix, maybe tied to the philosophies of each Faction. It could also award shaders and emblems on rank up milestones and high stat armour every 5 levels.

As for rallies, every time one appears there is a race for donations much like what is happening now. You have a total rank value which is given back daily to either reinvest or donate to your faction and increased drop rates for tokens. In the end the winner gets either a ritual weapon, exotic class item, catalyst or maybe something else of high value. Maybe even all three!

Using these templates, it ensures that both Factions in the background and Rallies can coexist together mixing the D1 and D2 versions of Factions.

What do you think? Discussion and improvements welcome.

Bergusia Forge has unlimited Captains on stage 2, I was able to get all 20 in 2 runs with blueberries.

Happy Hunting.

Edit: the same strategy will work when the daily rotated forge is Gofanon. Just a heads up.
