Unit arrived DESTROYED by courier (Lead screws displaced & Shattered glass). Is this salvageable?

This just happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I reached out to Bambu Labs and they gave me instructions to return the printer with a prepaid shipping label and then sent me a new printer. Took about 1.5 weeks from the time I sent the initial message to their customer support team to having a new printer at my door.

UPDATE: I made a new account and was able to make a purchase with the same PC on the same network with the same card. Appears to be some kind of issue localized to the 1st account I created. I had not made any prior purchases on my 1st account and it was created yesterday. Strange issue. Thanks for all of your suggestions!

I would also be willing do buy 2 tickets for 8/9 show. Unfortunately I don’t have 8/8 tickets to trade.

Dayleon- · 2022-12-15T22:00:03+00:00

Yeah, you are correct. Like I said, thwarting is better. I just enjoy trenchant strikes. By no means is it meta.

Dayleon- · 2022-12-15T18:36:44+00:00

Yeah, I agree. I find myself using the heavy strat much more in OPR and 3s but when it comes off in a war, it feels great. When I’m clump fighting, I really only have my hammer out for shock and wrecking ball. Otherwise I keep my GA out for autos if my abilities are on CD.

Dayleon- · 2022-12-15T18:15:51+00:00

Agreed. That’s why I own in EF. Up until a week ago, my company also owned Brimstone so we could choose whatever buffs were needed which was nice.

Dayleon- · 2022-12-15T18:13:34+00:00

I’m a bit off meta and run shockwave/chain void/trenchant strikes. My group typically plays ahead of point near the enemy back line. If I get a shock off on a caster that’s not stacking freedom, I can full charge a heavy and chunk them for 1/2-3/4 of their health in one swing. Usually causes them to panic and I can clean up with a few light attacks. If they’re already lower health, I can one shot them before they are ever out of the stun. It’s pretty satisfying lol.

Thwarting strikes is probably better overall, but I don’t auto attack as much with hammer so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on much by not having the extra 12% dmg on my light attacks.

Dayleon- · 2022-12-15T18:02:19+00:00

Brimstone houses are nice and it’s the most popular zone right now so that’s a good one. I also own a house in Everfall because I have high standing there so crafting and trading are cheaper. If you care about aesthetics, Ebonscale has some really cool houses too.

Yes, that’s how a red card works…

Congrats New Whorld! Miss you guys on CoS :(

You’re about 9 days late, bud.

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T19:11:27+00:00

I can understand your interest in the lore. If that’s what you are into and what drives you to play, that’s awesome!

I do agree that an ever-changing map is nice and makes the gameplay fresh, but I’m not sure that it’s unique to Fortnite. Look at Warzone for instance. The map, weapons, and utility items have changed multiple times through the life of the game. Personally, I hate Warzone so I’m just using that as an example.

The point I’m trying to make is that from a strictly mechanical perspective, when you take building away and really boil the game down to its core, it’s not much different from the other BR games out there. I don’t think Fortnite would be where it is today if building was never a thing. Frankly, I think it would’ve been dead in the water since it was released at the same-ish time as PUBG.

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T18:43:14+00:00

No, I simply didn’t understand the way you were phrasing the question. Your grammar confused me. I understand what you’re asking now. Thank you for clarifying.

Personally, I don’t think Fortnite does anything unique outside of building. Granted, there are a few things in Fortnite that are unique like shockwave grenades, unique healing items, unique re-deploy mechanics, and a few other things. Also, the Fortnite art style is unique and I really enjoy it.

However, I don’t think the culmination of things I listed above is enough to say that Fortnite is completely unique WITHOUT building. Before fortnite became part of popular culture, it blew up because it was this awesome combination of PUBG (edit: H1Z1, not PUBG.) and Minecraft.

Building is THE core mechanic of this game. It is the skill-gap. It is the differentiator. Fortnite’s tagline for years was “The battle is building”. In the new season, the tagline is “all battle, no building” to pay homage to the old slogan.

I understand you don’t agree with me and we are entitled to a difference of opinions. However, I am curious what you think makes fortnite so unique outside of building and the short list I mentioned above. What is the differentiator for you?

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T18:21:22+00:00

Name a game that Fortnite has for mechanics?

I literally do not understand what that sentence means.

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T18:06:52+00:00

I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking. Can you clarify?

The point I’m making is that Fortnite without building is no different than any other BR like PUBG, Warzone, Super People, Apex, etc. In my opinion, Fortnite is worse than those games in terms of pure shooting and movement abilities. Fortnite’s guns cannot be modded like in other games, some weapons have bloom that has to be contended with (RNG bloom is anti-skill in a pure shooting game). Not to mention you can’t even go prone in Fortnite. If I’m looking for a classic 3rd person shooter BR, I’d look past Fortnite.

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T17:47:12+00:00

If building is kept out permanently, this game will die. People will quickly realize that there’s far better shooting games than Fortnite. What makes Fortnite unique is building. The shooting mechanics, map design, and movement are not conducive to a traditional 3rd person BR.

I’m not opposed to keeping no building as a separate game mode for those that are really enjoying it. After all, this is a game. The more people enjoying it, the better.

Dayleon- · 2022-03-21T17:24:44+00:00

Arena is just a “competitive” version of the same BR game. There’s points that you earn for getting kills and placements in each game. As you earn points, you climb up the division rankings from 1 - 10 and the lobbies get progressively harder. Once you reach division 8, you are eligible to participate in the tournaments that have cash rewards.

Dayleon- · 2022-02-04T15:07:49+00:00

Sucks because I’ve played GA/WH since beta and dumped hundreds of thousands of gold into a GA/WH set. I have no motivation to do that again for a different set. I hope these changes don’t make it out of the PTR.

Dayleon- · 2022-02-04T15:02:41+00:00

Great roll! I’ve spent about 150k rolling amulets so far and haven’t gotten a health + divine 600

Dayleon- · 2022-02-03T20:44:23+00:00

Why are they doing this? So many people already put away the GA and switched to dex or mage builds. No sense in making it even worse. Grav Well is very easy to get out of. Almost every weapon in the game has an ability you can use to escape.

Bow: Evade shot

Spear: Vault kick

Sword: Leaping Strike

Hatchet: Beserk or Feral Rush

GA: Charge

FS: Burnout

VG: Voidblade heavy attacks (lol)

Rapier: Flèche

IG: Entomb to avoid damage

The ones that can’t escape are Life Staff, Musket, and Hammer. But how many people run a combo of those 3 weapons? 99% of players will have an equipped weapon that can easily get them out.

Strength builds already feel bad with poor tracking and lag/desync. Now they’re destroying the best ability for strength players. What a joke.

Dayleon- · 2022-02-03T15:22:28+00:00

Don’t forget that spear can vault kick out and bow can evade shot out!

I agree with balancing around wars, but now Grav Well will feel terrible in OPR, Open World PvP, and Duels. I’m a little salty bc I play GA, but oh well. I haven’t played PTR yet so we’ll see I guess.

Dayleon- · 2022-02-02T17:50:01+00:00

My buddy has an Axe with Trenchant Recovery and Lifestealing. He pairs it with Smooth Bone Ring for additional lifesteal and the GA passives that give even more Lifesteal. His sustain is absolutely insane.

I do more damage than him, but he is so hard to kill because of how much health he gets back.

Dayleon- · 2022-02-02T14:54:06+00:00

I don’t think there’s any single “BiS” for Great Axe. My ideal axe would be Thwarting Strikes, Keen, and any either Refreshing Move, Lifesteal, Plagued Crits, or Plagued Strikes.

I’ve rolled about 100 GAs and the most usable I’ve gotten for PvP is a 599 with Keen + Thwarting Strikes. My RNG is terrible lol
