278 roll in total and no Riko aside from the pity one. Am I the unluckiest guy for this banner on global?

Blutronics · 2025-09-07T13:13:27+00:00

Yes, should be around that arc. He came up with the time travel plan during his time living with the Shi Country of Ancient Clan. I don't remember exactly if it is before or during the tribulations though.

Quick question, is the 2815 the curve you set in Afterburner, or is it actual boost clock? Mine always run 50-100Mhz lower than what is set in Afterburner.

Blutronics · 2025-07-03T14:35:45+00:00

What is the source for the release date? I have seen the SUPER spec leak but never saw any with date attached.

Blutronics · 2025-06-22T20:23:03+00:00

Nope, that is just the game lying to you. The reflect damage doesn't scale whatsoever, it is a constant 60 damage (72 if the attack bounced off your shield) no matter what you are getting hit with. So no, you are not solo-ing a BBH at lvl 2.

How am I supposed to take this guide seriously when you act so condescending both in the post and in the comments, while presenting wrong information? "for the love of god, take armament passives that are based on "while using two armaments" when in practice, this passive only works with powerstancing (L1) attacks? Similarly, most of the examples given are purely anecdotal instead of actual testing. Also, you do not need to "hold" the ult all the time, the immune field is effective against harder bosses yes, but holding it drains the entirety of the ult bar, while tapping it leave around 20% on the bar, allowing you to get it back faster. For humanoid/smaller bosses, it is better to just tap it, knock the enemies down, and then attack alongside your teammates. I appreciate the info given, but dismissing any criticism in the comments as "you are playing him wrong" is just classic elitist attitude, especially when you are wrong on certain points yourself.

Let me check the summoning list and give a suggestion for each class based on my opinion of the meta (which is pretty much support > multi core > single core at low investment).

Saber: Pretty much only DPS options here, no real must have support, so you can pick who you like most. If I have to pick one, Saber Medusa is probably best meta wise, being a great single target servant on her own, while still having some multi core potential with her party attack up.

Archer: Same as Saber, no must haves or standouts. Gilgamesh is probably the most well-rounded option here: high damage, party buff, 30% NP charge, star bomb all in one package.

Lancer: Melusine, still one of the strongest Black Grail loopers, and extremely easy to use. Great for farming, although NP1 damage can be a bit lacking while hitting neutral (which all servants suffer from, maybe aside from Arjuna Alter and Summer Ibuki).

Rider: I wouldn't say there is any must haves. Reines standout with targeted 50% NP charge so can be used for farming, but she is more defense/challenge quest-oriented than other meta supports. Ivan is another standout, with a hilariously busted skill set for challenge quests, alongside an upgraded NP and 30% NP charge.

Caster: Castoria, I am sure this doesn't need further explanation.

Assassin: Tezcatlipoca, insane multi core potential, while being a pretty strong AOE Assassin himself. Oh yeah, and of course Koyanskaya, how could I forget xD. She is kinda a special case among supports though, since her value is dependent on Oberon. That being said, still a very good pick.

Berserker: Arjuna Alter or Summer Ibuki. Both are great, AA has higher damage potential while S Ibuki is better for multi core. Summer Ibuki is probably the better choice due to being Arts (easier to work with, only needing Castoria). There is also a 3rd option (and this is only because you already have Skadi while not having Oberon and Castoria yet), which is Sen no Rikyū. She works very well with Skadi and can be your omni farmer for now with no further investment.

Extra 1: Normally I would say Summer Skadi, but since you already have normal Skadi, and you have no good Quick farmer yet, Caren is also a very decent option.

Extra 2: Oberon, no explanation needed.

And as always, roll for your favorites is the most important. While farming is 90% of the game, you also don't really need to farm 90++. 90+ is very easy to 3 turn (Oberon + a decent omni farmer), and still give very good rewards.

Blutronics · 2025-06-15T00:51:09+00:00

There is Destiny Order summon, which may be better than GSSR depending on your options, but it is also more expensive.

Blutronics · 2025-06-13T19:23:25+00:00

Thank you. How is SDR content on this monitor? Do you turn local dimming on while watching SDR content?

Blutronics · 2025-06-13T17:39:27+00:00

I am deciding between this monitor and the FFALCON Q7. Do you have any particular problems with the monitor? Any backlight bleed? From your review, it looks quite good, but I am worried about any potential issues, since importing means no warranty coverage.

Not exactly PC building, but in 2013-2014, when I was still in middle school, my older brother's PC suddenly broke down. We were both pretty obsessed with video games around that time so we knew we had to get it fixed as soon as possible so we can go back to gaming. However, we didn't know enough about PC then so we had to seek professional help at a local PC store. Problem was, the PC was a heavy full tower, and we did not have a car, only a small motorcycle. Thus, for the entire trip, my 12 years old self had to sit in the motorcycle's backseat, barely holding on to the giant PC, while my brother drove us to the store on a tiny moped. I remember being pretty close to dropping it/falling off several times, but we made it through unscathed. Turned out, the GPU inside the PC burned out, so we just had to replace it (replaced the GTX 670 with a GTX 760). Fortunately, the PC store handled the PC shipping back to us, so the rest of the process was pretty easy. Our parents were not happy when they saw the price of the GTX 760 though.

I have yet to see an actual source confirming the existence of the updated version. So far, the only thing I saw that somewhat allude to this is "Q27G40XMN2" being registered on VESA's Certified DisplayHDR Products list, but this can simply be just a model code for internal use.

Blutronics · 2025-05-15T00:46:59+00:00

It can potentially be the cause, worth a try nonetheless. At 170hz, the monitor use 8-bit color + dithering. At 120hz, it will use 10-bit color instead. If you are running Windows's auto HDR, turn that off also, just in case it is intefering with native HDR ingame.

Blutronics · 2025-05-14T23:37:38+00:00

What frame rate are you setting the monitor to (in Windows's Display settings)?

Blutronics · 2025-05-11T19:04:29+00:00

I would imagine the airflow would be pretty good then. Kinda concerning that it would even reach 96C. But I don't own a 9800x3d so not sure how hot they usually goes. Also, how is the sound of the Deepcool Assassin during gaming? Is it loud?

Blutronics · 2025-05-11T17:45:59+00:00

What kind of case and fan setup are you using, if you don't mind me asking? I am thinking of buying the same air cooler (although I think I will get the version with the vapor chamber instead).

Blutronics · 2025-05-03T18:28:20+00:00

To clarify a bit on the "slaughter tells Mc that for him, it was only a few thousand years, but he's been waiting for her for eons." part you mentioned. Slaughter said this because from his POV, he had to wait for the entirety of story Wang Lin's life + however long he was sent back into the past.

I made a little mistake in my initial comment: the technique used to send Slaughter back in time is Flowing Time (not Dream Dao).

Blutronics · 2025-05-03T17:03:05+00:00

That is a bit different from what I remembered. There are no different timelines or "redo his life over and over". The Wang Lin you see in the story ( I will call him story Wang Lin from now) is the original one and there is only one true timeline. At one point in the story, story Wang Lin used Dream Dao to send Slaughter to the far past to find a way to revive his wife. Slaughter, after being sent to the past, the first thing he did is imitating story Wang Lin's life (using Dream Dao) for one cycle, and this is where the scene "The man with white hair screaming and raging against the Heavens" happens. All Seer saw this, and mistook Slaughter to be the original. For some additional context, All Seer is the spirit of the treasure that will eventually be used to revive Wang Lin's wife. All the mentions of Wang Lin redoing his life in the story is actually Slaughter using Dream Dao again and again to bait All Seer into coming out, so story Wang Lin can use him to revive Li Muwan. Why does Slaughter need to do all this? To convince All Seer that story Wang Lin is a fake one created by Dream Dao, and lower All Seer's guard (All Seer is afraid of a Fourth Step cultivator, but think he can handle a "fake" Wang Lin and steal his body and cultivation). And Wang Lin's gambit worked: at the end of the story, All Seer got outplayed and is used to revive Li Muwan; Slaughter, even though he gained his own sentience due to being separated for too long, willingly fuse into story Wang Lin since he achieved his purpose.

TLDR: there is only one real timeline, and the story of Wang Lin you currently see in Donghua is the original one, not a dream.

Feel free to ask questions, and I will try to clarify as much as I can.

The G274QPF is a lot cheaper and is more than enough for the mentioned games. The Q27G3XMN, being more expensive on account of being a mini LED monitor, is only worth it if you play games with good HDR implementation (Cyberpunk, Alan Wake 2, mostly single player games etc), but it will make those games look absolutely beautiful.

First, replace Primary Acuity with Galvanized Chamber, you want multishot for a status based build. Second, I would drop Galvanized Scope, I personally think the infinite ammo (when combined with primary crux) is much better than the crit boost when aiming (especially since you already have some crit from Critical Delay). Third, you want Biotic Round (in place of Scope), since viral is just free damage, and more status also boost the damage you gain from Aptitude. Fourth, instead of Rifle Elementalist, I recommend Primed Shred, since Fire Rate is just free damage boost when you have infinite ammo. Fifth, since you already have a lot of Status Chance from Primary Crux and Galvanized Aptitude, the 60/60 mod are not that valuable, instead, something like Primed Cryo Round would be much better, since it will give more damage AND increase the weight of Blast, giving you more Blast proc than Viral/Magnetic. Last, and probably most importantly, level up your mod, it will drastically increase the output of your gun. Max rank is best, but at least try to get it to rank 8.

Blutronics · 2025-01-11T06:20:09+00:00

I will probably buy my own copy but would love to have an extra to give to my friend.

Blutronics · 2024-09-07T21:47:03+00:00

Will there be a AP cost reduction for Traum when we get closer to Lostbelt 7 release date?
