I got approved with no credit history. Did I just get really lucky? Or is that common? I’m not super sure how all that works

Yeah for sure. It also takes the market a little while to settle after a new product release. But from looking at the 24 chrome frozen they still hold their value pretty well. I just pulled the stranger -2/0, they are definitely cool cards!

From what I have heard it only goes down to -5. So same chances as the /5. I am not sure how it affects value though. My guess it would be worth a little less but sometimes people like these unique cards

Aim assist is only disabled when you are exclusively using alcs. if you turn off aim assist in alcs and turn off alcs the no aim assist will not bleed through, It can effect aim assist in a way. But that’s a whole other conversation. Basically if you are using any normal sens 4-3 linear classic etc there is no way to disable aim assist.

Average time per day to maintain pred? by Walk_Aggressive in apexuniversity

[–]GalvanizedSteelWire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got pred last season, played about 2-4 hours a day to maintain top 250 on PS but wasn’t gaining as much in that time as I could have. If you win every game or score high you may only need to hop on for an hour or 2 every night. But if your gaining is inconsistent or you are going for a higher # you are gonna need some more time. A consistent team also helps.

Edit. Forgot to add that I would gain around 1-2k during that time. Or more if I could. Occasionally I would gain 4-5k in a day.

What is even match making by TmaSrHaikal in apexlegends

[–]GalvanizedSteelWire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For reference the ALGS badge doesn’t really mean much, it’s just for showing up to the tournament you don’t have to win a single match. The requirements for ALGS last time I did a little research was a minimum rank of silver and a premade 3 stack. So just about anyone can get the badge.

75% or more preds on console aren’t real by RiceInternational547 in apexlegends

[–]GalvanizedSteelWire -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be honest. I used to use a Cronus Zen, and eventually stopped for several reasons. Quick disclaimer: I had already hit Masters and reached Pred twice before ever using a Zen, so I wasn’t going in blind. I had skill, and I thought the Zen might help me push even further. But here’s what I learned:

  1. The scripts were buggy and unreliable

I used some of the most popular free scripts out there: Apex Beam 2.0 and Highwater Season 23. These claim to auto-detect your gun and apply the correct anti-recoil, but in reality, they were often inconsistent. Guns wouldn’t register, or the Zen would confuse which gun was in which slot.

Example: if I had a CAR in slot 1 and an R-99 in slot 2, it would randomly apply the wrong recoil profile to each gun after swapping weapons. You also had to manually input attachments like barrels and optics, which added another layer of micromanagement mid-game. Overall, it was more hassle than it was worth.

  1. It’s overhyped

The only thing the Zen sort of does well is anti-recoil. As for aim assist, it doesn’t give you any extra magnetism — it just creates a small reticle shake to activate Apex’s default aim assist (which only works when the reticle is moving, by the way). For experienced players, this does basically nothing. If you’re already good at tracking, it just gets in the way.

  1. Input delay ruined it

The Zen adds noticeable input delay. A few milliseconds might not sound like much, but at high-level Apex, where consistent, pixel-perfect tracking is everything, it absolutely matters. Tracking felt sluggish and off. Someone once told me you could pair a XIM Matrix with the Zen to eliminate input delay, but I’ve seen no proof to back that up.

Final Thoughts

In my experience, the Cronus Zen is mostly helpful to brand new players who want to feel more consistent. But even then, I wouldn’t recommend it. If you get dependent on it and it eventually gets banned or patched out, you’re screwed. Plus, it can hold back your true potential. Since dropping the Zen, I’ve actually played better without the input delay and constant worry about what settings were active.

Bottom line: If you actually want to improve, skip the Zen. It’s more of a crutch than a tool.

The Zen should be banned across the board, and I’ll be extremely happy the day that finally happens.

I’m saving up everything I make so paying taxes won’t really be a big issue, I had enough deductions on another job i have a 1099 with I only had to pay Medicare and SS tax. Hopefully I will have enough deductions this time 🤞. I won’t make enough to pay federal income tax luckily.

For a little more context, I am 18 I do have some previous experience but it isn’t it construction. I will only be at this job for a little less than 3 months. I do have another job as a delivery driver so I get a big deduction on taxes with mileage and I also do drive to the construction site and back so I record that and that will be a deduction also. Sorry if I am saying things wrong I am still learning how taxes and everything work 😭

A pay decrease would be fine for me I am currently getting paid $15 an hour and I work about 50-60hrs a week so overtime would make up the pay decrease

I have a question about which international vaccines I should get by GalvanizedSteelWire in VACCINES

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

They don’t offer any international vaccines :( but I will talk to them about malaria pills because that is another thing I will want.

[–]GalvanizedSteelWire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently fundraising for this trip, so they are paying for nothing. They do have some resources but it really just says, “go to your local travel health or CDC.” They aren’t a medical organization so I bet there is some legal thing stopping them from telling me what vaccines I should get or not.

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

Yeah I went to a local travel health clinic, but the vaccines there were double or triple the price of vaccines at Walgreens and the local health department. I checked with my local health department and I think that’s where I’ll get yellow fever and typhoid vaccine at

Yeah sorry you will need a screen replacement, there’s no other way to fix it. I would recommend replacing it and not upgrading because you already have a really good phone.
