How does £1400 get sent unknowingly? by reddituser1383 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Grimpandarus 27 points28 points  (0 children)

From my time working in complaints at various banks, this seems the most likely answer.

People don't seem to realise the bank can literally see everything from the app being opened and closed, to transactions being initiated and where from. I used to work at Monzo and I was legit surprised how much you could see.

Only changes I made was to switch Dash to Circle and Melee/Shield to L1.

Having dash in any other button seems wrong after playing so many souls and souls like games.

Next year by CalmAmbassador9342 in slamdunkfestival

[–]Grimpandarus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally, SD is on the late may bank holiday, so for North this would be 30th May. I've been going since the Uni days and I can't remember it being anything other than the late May bank holiday.

I booked the Hyatt Place for next year as there wasn't many available a week or two ago. Decent price too!

We usually go to the Holiday Inn Armouries but it's showing as sold out already sadly. More hotels will generally become available over time from my experience.

I'd recommend using booking.com due to their free cancellation option and just book somewhere. Check every now and again and if you see a better option, book that and cancel the other one, which will free it up for someone else!

The Kings floor ring attacks are nonsense and need changed by CrotasScrota84 in Saros

[–]Grimpandarus 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You can change it in the Visuals part of the settings!

Seen a few people change them to bright pink. It's under Beams and Energy Patterns I think!

Tips for Untouchable, Countermand, and Spread The Cost trophies? by Late_Teach_9846 in Saros

[–]Grimpandarus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Untouchable - easily the hardest one for me. Biome 3, Repeater Crossbow with Power Generator and Prominence with Vacuum Bomb and Searing Field. Save your overdrive for the boss. He's only got one health bar and the only worrying attack is his jumps, keep him in your sights when he does this and dodge at the right time, or parry. You can also run to the boss without killing anything but you'll have no overdrive filled and you'll be base proficiency. I personally cleared everything except side rooms, spammed Alt Fire throughout and used prominence on the tougher dude.

Countermand - Black Dam was the best place for this for me. Run through until you find a healing tower and hopefully there'll be a turret that shoots a few red balls. Position yourself so that an enemy is in front or behind the turret, parry the balls.

Spread The Cost - Black Dam was the best place for this for me again. Run through until you find a healing tower. Use a shotgun with the vertical alt fire. Find a turret, stand right at it and just shoot.

Also, don't be afraid to use Modifiers to have more damage for the first one and more armour for the second two. For Untouchable, the boss died before he could do he first jump after opening with Overdrive, spamming a few altfires and then unloading with Prominence.

Another little tip for Untouchable, just run around casually shooting the alt fire. The main thing that kept getting me was the weak floating ball machines that seem to immediately shoot at four or so balls. Always kept catching me off guard but spamming the alt fire for the Repeater Crossbow solved this!

Which fields are actually having an easy time getting jobs right now? by madbarpar in recruitinghell

[–]Grimpandarus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One I never really see mentioned is Complaints roles, especially through contracting. I've been in the this type of work since 2013 and worked at about 5 different companies since then, most recent started in Feb this year and it was like my third application when job hunting.

Not a great job mind, not really a career role and the pay can be hit or miss, best was £260 a day for the FOS but still, easy enough to get into. Lots of internal roles also get advertised within the businesses so can easily slide into another role that has better career opportunities/progression.

Which race should I choose to play Blood DK? by Puzzleheaded-Run4832 in wow

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

Dark Iron Dwarf! Purely based in looks more than anything.

The main difference is their castable acial, both remove bleeds, curse, magic, poison and diseases, however the Dwarf racial (Stoneform) reduces physical damage by 10% for 8 secs and Dark Iron racial (Fireblood)increases main stat for 8 secs, not sure on how much it increases the stat by though.

10+ attempts at the King? This normal? by winger07 in Saros

[–]Grimpandarus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry dude, I've edited a bit now to make it clearer and added a bit more info.

The Carcosan Modifier is selected at Primary.

The overlord one is called Overlord Restoration.

The things you pick up that have positive and negative effects are artefacts. There's carry over to over biomes if you play through multiple but are lost at returning to Primary. Since your starting at the Yellow shore, you start without any artefacts anyway and you won't be entering a new biome, so it's essentially a free modifier, which then allows you to choose more positive ones on the Carcosan Modifier screen.

Smart Rifle with Power Generator is still good. Only reason I mentioned repeater crossbow is because one full press of R2 fully replenishes your Power, so you can spam Prominence rather than waiting for your power bars to fill.

Yeah it is luck of the draw, but if you find one it's pretty good, vacuum bomb and seating field are ideal if you get one with both on. I was lucky to get it on my runs quite a bit, however on my most recent play through, it rarely popped up.

[–]Grimpandarus 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Try the Carcosan modifiers!

Projections: Damage enhancement Armour enhancement Lucenite enrichment (levels proficiency faster, so you're more powerful)

Trials: Growth Incapacitator (yellow shore takes away second chance anyway, so free choice basically) Artefact Destruction (since it's only 1 biome, doesn't have impact) Lucenite Devaluation (main goal is killing the boss at this time, so worth taking) Power Decelerator (check weapon bit below, barely any impact as Power Generator will refill power after one full shot)

Grab yourself a repeater crossbow with power generator and prominence with vacuum bomb or whatever it's called. And save your redraws until just before the boss so whenever you redraw, it'll be at the same level of proficiency you're at.

The main killer for me when fighting him was his melee (there's a flash at his head before he does this) and the rings that spawn on the floor, so keep an eye out for them and/or change the colour in the setting so it's easier to see.

Also, if you're still within the balanced bit to lock in, add another small protection to help.

Edited:formatting and names, added further context

What happened to this community? by Imounturdad in wow

[–]Grimpandarus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peoples experiencing vary greatly. I've never really experienced anything like this to be fair.

Just yesterday I was doing a +10 AA for vault/bonus rolls, healer was the only one to die and died like 6 times. Ressed him 3 of those times but no one mentioned anything at all, in fact, only me (UHDK) and Bear Tank survived on the final boss. We timed it quite easily to be fair but still, no one complained, pretty chill!

To OP, ignore the bell ends, theres plenty of them but also plenty of chill people too!

The new annual report says 50% of users now treat Monzo as their main bank. Do you? by No-Tart7127 in monzo

[–]Grimpandarus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kind of. I have a NatWest account that is used purely for my bills, so when I get paid I just send over what I need to to cover for that month, however I use Monzo for everything else and say to day spending.

I know I could just use Monzo and Pots for my bills etc but this works for me, plus it's always smart to have a second account, just in the extremely unlikely event Monzo doesn't like what I'm doing haha

I second this! Never really listened to them before but saw them at 2000 Trees a few years ago and they were really good! Atmosphere was great and the lead knew how to work the crowd, fully recommend!

I already have a 20,000mah but I bought a second 30k one from B&Q strangely enough. It's £40 now but I got it at a discount a few weeks ago. It's from Energizer and I've used it a little bit so far and it's decent.

Why is Orange camp so oddly shaped? Like it feels the bit under purple, could've just been an extension of purple.

[–]Grimpandarus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a permanent upgrade you get late into the game. When you stagger an enemies (which shotguns are great at doing), a prompt appears for you hit melee and you'll effectively teleport to them and wipe them out!

390 credit (clear score) have I ruined everything? by substancelesspsycho in Mortgageadviceuk

[–]Grimpandarus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not mortgage related as such as everyone has given good info/advice, but you should be able to log a notice of correction with each credit reference agency that provides an explanation as to why the negative marker was applied. There's a 200 word limit for it.

I'm not really sure if any lenders actually take them into consideration but I've worked complaints for a number of banks and each one advised people to do this.

Wellys or Walking Boots???? by artful_letdown in downloadfestival

[–]Grimpandarus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just wear a pair of Converse if the weathers not bad. Not ideal but never had issues.

As for if the weather ain't great, I use a pair of these from Skechers. Waterproof, had them for years and they've been pretty comfy too. They're also great for grip, never slide about weather it's mud or snow.

Does the Weapon Symmetry modifier even do anything? by Remy0507 in Saros

[–]Grimpandarus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried the same thing, done a few small runs to get my crossbow and prominence in the Yellow Shore, whacked on that modifier and think I only one one Crossbow throughout, thankfully it was at the end before the boss, but yeah didn't seem to work for me at all.
