So, tried out the flux pen on a quick build today - Earthquaker Bellows - and it definitely helped. I started with the resistors, 'dotted' the stripboard with the pen before I added components, and it seemed that the solder went exactly where I wanted/needed it to go with no blobs/pooling.

Where it was really noticeable was after the board was finished (components and wire) -- knifing the strips was a breeze, and the circuit fired up right off the bat.

Best $7 spent so far!
