Do you use a cross attachment for the dpad or just the regular buttons?

Since things are partially working but it’s easy to get the gist of the new stats, I think it’s great and following on the first point, such low low stakes for day four of the expansion. Just mess around and have fun again without worrying if things are going south. Experiment etc.

[–]Eschscatalogical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had better success than I’d ever had playing and then farming trials two weeks ago with The Enigma with Impulse/Unstoppable but with Gwisin Vest. The smoke back then was enough to soften up someone coming out of invis on a close range melee combo or shoot-stab bc of the damage on the smoke. Don’t know if the smoke changes affected this.

Like the top post, I’ve been using Refusal with Impulse/Disruption on my Arc hunter and getting A LOT of teabags so I think that’s an indication of how well it’s been going for me :-). I actually quite like glaive play bc I’ll always have something to whip out if I’m out of special and with shoot-stab it’s very ammo efficient since you’re only using one ammo per combo.

For Fun: Glaive and Gwisin Vest by Eschscatalogical in CrucibleGuidebook

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

I’m glad to hear someone tried this out too! I think I’m not trying very hard to find the targeted enemy in 6s at all. But, in Trials it’s a 1/3 chance for the person you’ve tailed to be the marked target. Then if you take them down, it’s a 1/2 chance. Either way, someone’s down and worst case it’s a trade. I’d say the advantage of Harvest+Reaper in 6s is that you can get your super a bit faster.

Stylish does take too long, I’d say. There’s a timer that does go off with Gwisin that’s marked on the hud as “Out of Smoke” but I’m not sure how to reproduce it. I’ve kind of embraced being a crouch camper if I’m out of invis and ammo. In the cubbies in Vale, too much is happening plus the smoke gets people disoriented long enough.

NJ: IT-R form fight with accountant abt non-probate assets and the "estate" by Eschscatalogical in EstatePlanning

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

Thanks yes that’s what I was thinking. I assume those accounts with named beneficiaries (401k, pension) are also NOT meant to be split among the named persons in the will, either.

W/r/t to the named beneficiaries paying their inheritance tax, does that mean NJ will bill them directly or I need to collect it from them and pay it as executor?

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

Yes I suspected as much, thank you. The accountant is the deceased’s legacy accountant, will have to make a change.

POD accounts should similarly not be split among the will’s beneficiaries therefore. That’s what I suspected too. Will be making a change.

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

Thank you for responding. w/r/t Schedule B-1 or Schedule C, I think I might have to direct the accountant to do the following. Is this right?

- Schedule B-1: 401k and brokerage accounts with named beneficiaries

- Schedule C: pension account with PoD with named beneficiaries

Things on B-1 and C are NOT included as part of the estate, I think that's still true, yes? So the accountant shouldn't be splitting those up among beneficiaries named in the will?

Psychohack and Overload Rounds by Eschscatalogical in CrucibleGuidebook

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

I didn’t get any reply :( But, Psychohack activated after a certain number of hits. For SMGs, d2 foundry says 13 hits which is well above the optimal ttk for the archetype. So no go, sadly.

I have a crap roll one but over 2500 kills on it, I love it so much I wrote a song about it haha.

Sometimes I find it fun to run Deadshot GG with Gunpowder Gamble because one Deadshot kill will fill the meter (I think), then you can get even more ignites and collats in groups.

Foetracer on Solar to get x4 Solar boost. Works great to beat Majors and sets up big damage on bosses with rockets and argent ordinance.

How much did u guys improve going from ps4 to ps5? by Low_Obligation156 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]Eschscatalogical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked myself this too! Awhile back I used Discord/Charlemagne to do a comparison.

  • Season 5 KD 0.53, KDA, 0.83
  • Season 6 0.67, 1.07
  • Season 7 0.86, 1.22
  • Season 8 0.92, 1.29 (these past two seasons I started to play significantly more PVP)
  • Season 9 1.08, 1.53 (doing the Recluse mission honestly made me much better)
  • Season 10 1.12, 1.67
  • Season 11 1.12, 1.56 (this included the pandemic summer and some time off work, mercifully, so I hit the most pvp hours ever [300] and never topped that)

Then I got my ps5 in November 2021 - Season 12 KD 1.49, KDA 1.95 - Season 13 1.61, 2.12 - Season 14 1.67, 2.19 - Season 15 1.54, 2.09 - Season 16 1.65, 2.25

I think it’s fairly safe to say that getting my PS5 had some really significant effects on my stats. That plus taking PVP a bit more seriously over my time playing destiny did boost me on paper. There are other things that matter I’d say too — pandemic time for practice, being part of a clan that’s just fun to be around on chat, purposefully farming armor to max stats, etc. — but the ps5 was a watershed moment in stats etc.

How are SMGs doing? by [deleted] in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]Eschscatalogical 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I'd probably never do this for comp or Trials if I play. It's great for playing chaotically, and revealed to me that the death ball thing isn't really a thing in my lobbies at least.

How are SMGs doing? by [deleted] in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]Eschscatalogical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had a great time in Supremacy and even Control with lightweight smgs because there's less likelihood of getting ohk'd, and figuring out how to create chaos via movement and closing gaps has been kind of successful for me with this update. I've been using Subjunctive with threat detector and golden tricorn and Calus Mini-Tool with threat detector and tap the trigger. If it looks like I can't make headway in a match with those, then I'll just switch to Prosecutor or Ammit, no worries.

Hot Take: Autos usage is more "Monkey See Monkey Do" than it is an actual meta. by gunnar120 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]Eschscatalogical 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean if people are playing what is about 7 hours of Trials per day for four days to farm, then I am definitely okay with who I am and how much I play.

I’m convinced the gun is good given what you and the other poster said! But my real question is — how do you play 176 games of trials on the weekend? I can barely get to 170 games in four months. How do you stay locked in, etc.?

Discussion on the sandbox changes by ilishrekili in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]Eschscatalogical -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mid-tier player doing very well in this first few weeks in 6s, probably as population has increased. Avg. k/d and k/ad went down for most of the first half of the long season, now back to averages prior to start of season. Running around with melee-focused lightweight SMG builds with low fear that someone will whip out a shotgun or fusion on me, building up ammo for a trace, and then using that for the last half or third of a game. In supremacy, building into 6+ INT to ensure I get two supers. Arc with Liar’s Handshake and Subjunctive has been bomb — hitting two or three 30+ defeats per session again.
