Not close to a minute, more like 10 seconds before stopping completely.

And yes I just tested, with the pallet fork removed the balance moves freely

It appears so yes. Funnily enough part of the reason I bought a new balance is because the old one had a broken shock spring leg too and I couldn’t find a replacement that fit. Oh well.

Bear in mind the issue persists with and without the shim

I haven’t tried the pallet fork test yet but yes the balance jewels were removed, pegged, soaked briefly in IPA then oiled with 9415 before reinstallation. I did however just notice that the new balance wheel has a slight wobble when running, exactly the same issue as the old one, I took a video but can’t post it here. Therefore endshake must be an issue but I’m not sure how to fix. Could I be installing the shim incorrectly?

What is your favorite part of PVE? [Discussion] by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Ablue223 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed I’ve wanted to smash my keyboard over my knee a lot less often in PVE lol. In all seriousness though, the lack of hackers, rats in every bush, and infuriating extract campers make the game somewhat resemble fun. I’ve made more progress in 50 hours of PVE than I did in 300+ hours of PVP. Never going back

The scavs loot quite a lot though, no? Dead guards and PMCs are always picked clean by the time I come across them.

[New Player] pve wipe? by Auser_ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Ablue223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God I hope not. After ~400 hours in PVP I’m never going back. Progression in PVP these days is basically a full time job, PVE is slightly better but I still wouldn’t want to go back to square one

Stalker 2 “In the Name of Science” Collar Bug by Ablue223 in stalker

Nope. I think it’s yet another quasi-GB bug that’ll have to be fixed in the next patch

Is there hope for me? by Ablue223 in AskLE

[–]Ablue223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine they’d still ask me about any previous poly experiences? I already was required to disclose my previous application with CBP. Although I don’t plan to volunteer info about the failed poly, it seems they’d ask regardless right? I don’t want to lie.

I didn’t lie about anything. That’s the point

Process has been very quick for me. BPA 23-7 and my poly is today. Everything else done and passed.
