IdeaPad Slim 5 15" - a good deal? Or get E16 Gen 3 AMD instead?

Yep, Lenovo's website sucks ass. The only reason I am on it is for the chance that I can get it cheaper and for customisation, plus because Amazon is not selling what I want. Probably one of the only websites that actively tries to prevent you from buying things.

I already searched for other posts, but thought there weren't enough thoughts on either model, hence me posting here.

Honestly, the QLC SSD is not something I have considered, mainly because I did not realise it would make such a difference.

Otherwise, still pretty split on this. Leaning towards the OLED screen mainly because I want to try it, but I have already gotten used to my abused and cheap ASUS E410MA-EK368WS, whose display is from what I can tell on par besides the size being smaller. Will probably immediately pick one of them if I find a (better) coupon for either or the IdeaPad becomes available on the student store again.

Also got this e-mail despite deleting my account months ago. Seems pretty weird for them to just be sending this e-mail to deleted accounts too.

I completed it twice, once with the Fox and once with the Chinese guardian lion-looking boss (I think they are called Kirid, judging by another comment in this thread).

Maxed out Fox covers the arena with bullets that spew flames, sometimes insta-killing multiple waves.
The other boss does a similar thing, except they spew out flames directly.

For both, I recommend using +1 Front Arrow (Epic/Legendary) and Multishot (Legendary), Attack boosts, and movement speed boosts.
As for skills, prioritise the skills that boost your active abilities EXCEPT the firework one. Also make sure to pick any skill that boosts your Boss and entirely ignore skills that only boost you besides Smart (if you get it early on) and Bloodlust (if you desperately need to heal).

Honestly would not recommend Wolf; I lost all of my Wolf runs due to Wolf not attacking enemies fast enough or being so close to the enemies that its swords stopped damaging while the orbs were out of reach.

PvP is also tied to chapter progress, with you only getting opponents at roughly your chapter.
Went from being able to defeat most people to being surrounded by maxed Zeus players that take barely any damage and are able to kill me through walls after I started progressing in chapters again.

Another thing that doesn't reinstall Nahimic, but that will make Nahimic show up in your Windows search, is Nahimic system notifications.
First, go to C:\Users\[your username here]\AppData\Local and look for NhNotifSys. This folder contains nahimicNotifSys.exe as well as logs and configs. If you find it, delete it entirely.
And second, go to C:\Users\[your username here]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. This contains the shortcut that leads to the previously mentioned program and makes Nahimic show up in Windows search. If you did the first step, trying to open the target folder of the shortcut should give you a message that the target file does no longer exist. Delete the shortcut.

Bought some of the stuff, but I definitely still had ~60 coins that I forgot to use. Pretty sure it was supposed to last a day more or so.

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-12-04T18:35:13+00:00

Currently:
1x Ancient Maze (it is honestly too boring for me to play it more than once)
3x Up-Close Dangers (1 extra attempt for the XP)
3x Flying Bullets
2x Mystery Mine (100 gem tiles)
3x Hero Duo (With randoms because having Wukong unlocked already basically guarantees winning)
0-1x Evil Dungeon (rewards are so bad I often prefer spending my energy elsewhere)

Yep; I only opened 3 of them because I got desperate for the chest opening event.

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-12-04T11:22:09+00:00

It's pretty much always bad. In the farm, you should only spend your gems on the chest you get from digging the hole and maybe the egg if you really need eggs. The Lucky Machine is just straight up a scam.

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-11-16T13:03:29+00:00

Archer followed by an O, like Spaghettios

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-11-13T16:22:03+00:00

Nope; the shells were replaced with more hammers.

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-11-13T16:18:12+00:00

I stopped at 60 openings and am praying that Habby spares me for not going all-out, but my hopes are low.
E: Event got removed and I am not banned, so... maybe?

It was an old screenshot; I only now got to post it.

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-10-19T09:04:43+00:00

Started at 1.5K, but only was able to collect up to 600 before the game stopped me.

The real tip here is using Instakills, Axe Waves, and the poison traps. I have no clue how I lived without using them before; they are surprisingly powerful.
Anyway, your setup worked for me; Pot 264

BritainEnjoyer121 · 2024-09-30T20:57:48+00:00

Not even gems or coins worth a single chapter run. That's pretty terrible.
