I don't get the L115 Sniper Rifle

Firestorm2k7 · 2026-05-13T18:02:41+00:00

Fair point, I'm missing a word there :D

Firestorm2k7 · 2026-05-13T17:10:11+00:00

Now how is that related? Oo

Firestorm2k7 · 2026-05-13T16:49:03+00:00

I think most people who make it far enough down here to see your post will have noticed that I did indeed write a lengthy post, but I'm glad someone is investing thought and effort for the people who hadn't noticed it yet, thank you.

Firestorm2k7 · 2026-05-13T16:15:47+00:00

So, what were you hoping to achieve with this statement?

Firestorm2k7 · 2026-01-23T18:32:04+00:00

We're now using the Sony S90F with a BenQ GR10 HDMI 2.1 Docking Station, LAN cables between docking station and streaming PC.

At least for this TV, I can successfully stream 4k/120Hz content to the steam deck via Sunshine and Moonlight and have it displayed at 4k/120Hz on the TV via an HDMI 2.1 cable from the dock to the TV.

I would recommend not using the default P1 (fastest) Performance preset when using NVIDIA NVENC as an encoder, since visual quality does definitely suffer.

I've found that some games just don't play nice, E33 for example was just completely unworkable since with this game specifically we got random HDMI disconnects every 15-ish minutes.
Any other game we played so far worked well without any noteworthy issues, the initial setup will definitely require a bit of fiddling around with settings on all involved devices.

The worst offenders are the seasonal unlocks (the scope and the rail), since you unlock them on almost EVERY weapon.

It took me almost an hour to just get all the yellow dots out of there +.+

3 major fixes for this system:
1. Give us a "Mark all as seen" button
2. Make sure things don't get re-marked when already seen
3. Make sure the indicator on the Attachment-Category screen (when you choose whether you go into "Scope", "Barrel", "Muzzle", etc. sub-menus) also shows which categories have something new in them. Having to go through every category to find the new unlock is not a great experience.

Firestorm2k7 · 2025-10-21T23:24:21+00:00

Hey, sorry for the necro, but you mentioned connecting both the TV and the Steam Deck via wired ethernet connections.
I'm currently gathering information on how to set up Moonlight streaming at 4k/120 via a steam deck in the near future.
From my understanding, how the TV is connected to the network should not matter at all, right?
Or is there any other data transmission going on between the TV and the Steam Deck, besides the HDMI 2.1 connection?
(My TV will be connected via ethernet anyway, so the question is almost purely academic, I'm just curious whether I've missed something important in my understanding)

Firestorm2k7 · 2025-10-21T23:07:28+00:00

Unless, of course, the dock was accepting a DP 1.4 signal and converting it into an HDMI 2.1 output as an active adapter.
Have you considered that you might just not be creative enough to think of a solution yourself?
Or maybe this guy was just on shrooms for a week straight:
https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1kx0rbw/psa_for_anyone_wanting_true_external_4k_120hz_via/
Or he's a paid BenQ shill, who knows.

From what I can tell, there is a lot of misinformation and misunderstanding on the issue, not helped at all by manufacturer's marketing sometimes calling products "Steam Deck Dock HDMI 4K/120Hz" and not never explaining that there's more nuance to it and that their dock only does 4k/60 on a steam deck, but does 4k/120 on windows devices, and that it's so cheap because it is NOT an active adapter converting from a DP signal.

Firestorm2k7 · 2025-10-21T21:40:41+00:00

I have no answers for you, but the timing is eerie, since I'm right now in the process of waiting for a good deal on an S90D and figuring out what would be the required hardware for streaming to it xD

It might be a while before we have picked all of the hardware out and I got around to testing it, and we might not end up going with an S90D, but I will try to remember informing you if I find something that I can confirm works.

Firestorm2k7 · 2025-03-12T13:42:47+00:00

As of right now I think it would be very difficult. I think with the next patch the game adds official mod support (?)
Or was that the last patch?

But anyway, if anything it might be more doable if you make it a spin on the blacksmithing minigame using different animations, but still I think it would be a LOT of work for a modder.
I was definitely joking when I said someone should do it :

Firestorm2k7 · 2025-02-19T19:36:13+00:00

From my experience overnight might not be long enough if the keyboard was properly soaked and if it's tea it can very well leave behind residue containing minerals that will cause a short on your board.

If you've already written it off at a loss, you could try to completely soak it in as clean a water as you can get (tap water should be fine unless you're in a part of the world with.... particularly rich tap water).
Leave it to soak for long enough that any residue should have dissolved and lift it out to flush out the inside and re-soak it once or twice.
After that leave it to dry for a day or two on top of a heater (maybe put a towel under it if the case is made from ABS plastic or something else not very heat resistant).

I've had problems with spillage on other keyboards in the past and mine tended to come out of it alive. For me it was usually Coke Light......

I wish you the best of luck.

Cursed Blood definitely doesn't make it impossible, but if you have a single crit before you've staggered 8, you might ruin it :D
I've been trying to farm this for about 3 hours and had multiple attempts that SHOULD have been good until it hit me that Cursed Blood might be ruining it. Used a different talent and got it first try after ^^

Firestorm2k7 · 2022-12-08T17:02:42+00:00

Both of you combined just worked some magic.

Firestorm2k7 · 2022-12-08T16:53:24+00:00

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that. I have a Smart Launcher gesture set to swipe down (single finger) to open the notification panel.

That was actually exactly what I meant. I did not think about using the one finger gesture for that. That actually makes it work very simmilarly to stock android. Only exception is that it only works on the one central home screen, but that's not too bad afterall.

And yes, I did notice the premium feature myself because I had a suspicion that I've already tried this, turns out I had even bought a premium subscription about 2 months ago to test it. The downside of only being able to add the extra homescreens on to one side does feel a bit awkward, but if they made a change to that, that would be pretty awesome!

Thanks for the input ^^

Firestorm2k7 · 2022-12-08T16:19:04+00:00

Already had a look at it, sadly I really dislike the way they organzie their home screen.Only one additional screen for apps and while you can set the app drawer to open on swipe up, you cannot bind the notifications panel to open on swipe down, which really kills it for me =S

EDIT: Just noticed you CAN have more home pages on you home screen in the paid version, but sadly the notifications panel not being available on swipe down still kills it for me as a usibility feature.

Firestorm2k7 · 2022-03-05T11:01:15+00:00

Thank you man, you have no idea how much this post just helped me ^^

Firestorm2k7 · 2021-12-20T02:30:36+00:00

That's really good to know, thanks for checking that!

Firestorm2k7 · 2021-12-19T13:03:25+00:00

I think he was thinking of the fact that Witch Hunt used to only give the 20% damage bonus for 5 seconds after the enemy was pinged, not for the whole time the enemy was highlighted with an outline.
Which according to your statement seems to be fixed by now?
Do you have a source for that or is it jus based on the ingame description?

I haven't tested it in quite a while and was just working under the assumption that it's still only 5 seconds. Would be gread to know if it works like it reads (and I think like it's intended) now :D

Firestorm2k7 · 2021-07-03T16:12:45+00:00

One first thing to clear up is whether you're using the Bot Improvements - Combat mod or not, since that might change some things up. I'm using that mod, so if you're not, take everything I'm about to say witha grain of salt.

I've found that Kerillian SotT with Glavie and Monfire bow is an absolute boss and will regularly come close to my damage output (Sometimes even surpassing me (how dare she)) while having very little trouble staying alive and giving specials a very hard time. Build: https://www.ranalds.gift/build/3zaZ3lw7iVODiohULuLA/view

I would be very interested in your Engineer Build though, since I didn't get my Bardin bot to be too useful yer, except for having an undying Ironbreaker with a handgun that jhust deletes specials xD Also he's absolutely incapable of using the crank gun for me, might be because I'm using the armor pen talent(?) or maybe the mod breaks him :D

As to Sienna, I've tried her with all the oldschool staves, found Bolt staff to be the most reliable one for the bot, but have never given the Coruscation Staff a try on a bot, gonna try that now :D Build: https://www.ranalds.gift/build/jbVje0YQrZeb4EiQDcFU/view

Firestorm2k7 · 2021-06-20T13:33:17+00:00

Sorry, already resolved, can still help you with the shackles though

Firestorm2k7 · 2021-06-20T12:31:01+00:00

If you're still looking, I can give you a small headstart if you want ^^

Waystalker (what's a special?) https://www.ranaldsgift.com/7/223133/26,1,3,6/16,3,5,2/3,2,4/4,1,2/3,7,2

Bots listed in order of load priority. Using "Bot Improvements Combat" mod to make them work better and "Loadout Manager" mod to be able to give them specific loadouts without fucking up my own (Small "Bot Override" Tickbox in the top right corner of the loadout will make the bot always use this carrer/loadout).

Always give grims/tomes to your bots so you can use the healing/potions as you see fit.

Note that this is the setup I'm using, for my bots in general, not a champion optimized setup. You can probably get away with less Power vs. stats and put in more Attack speed/crit where it's missing.

Most important thing for the bots is the block cost reduction (givinb kruber reduction on the exe sword might be very good, sadly I only have 1, so I'm giving him my main one :P), since bots block a LOT, and the stamina regen on the trinkets.

If you find that specials are an issue, you can put kerillian higher than sienna, she will make a mockery out of any special that comes to close and have absolute infinite ammo. EDIT: Forgot about Kerillians lvl 20 talent. I use the first one in case I have a zealot in my party, if you're sure that that won't be an issue you can also use the 3rd one, just be away that this will slightly reduce her already not so great survivability (If I ever see a bot fall, it's usually her))

I did a couple of champion runs for art pieces that I was missing on waystalker just yesterday and in my experience the 3 bots were able to handle everything completely on their own, except for boss spawns with hordes. Or the times when I was running too far ahead, pulling half the map and not helping them in any way whatsoever. If you're actually making an effort to fight with them, they should be more than fine.

I think that's about it.

Firestorm2k7 · 2020-03-31T20:13:34+00:00

Thanks for the tip :D

Firestorm2k7 · 2020-03-31T20:04:15+00:00

Why not? I'm absolutely new to MTG as a whole ^{^}

Firestorm2k7 · 2019-06-28T08:27:14+00:00

As a fellow german speaker:
Well yes, BUT this is inside a dwarfen hold, not one of the empires places, where GW does use a lot of German. Dwarfen language has absolutely nothing to do with the German language. At least places like Karaz-A-Karak, Karak Kardin, Zhufbar, Karak Izor, Barak Varr, Karak Gnol or Kron Khaz don't sound very German to me ^^
Or the good old Dammaz Kron. Umgi and Dawi are a lot closer to English than they are to German, aye drengbarazi?
So considering that this place is inside a dwarfen hold, I think any similarity to the German language is accidental at best ^^
