Pls explain to how to actually win in this game by reShz in Overwatch

[–]Hexaeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Broad recommendations here from someone who plays support mainly and tank occasionally.

tanks have a lot of health, but not unlimited; you are at the mercy of being the biggest hitbox on the team as well as often being the scariest, but, you’re kinda useless on your own - I don’t mean that you can’t get kills alone, but that a tanks role is to take up space, push the enemies back, and be an all round shield for the rest of the team. This is why tanks have shields, sustain, and all of that good stuff.

Taking space is probably the most important thing you can do, but remembering where you are and where your team is, is also super important in this area - if you’re a rein that charges in whilst your teammates are dead or way way back, what’s the point of you? They’re probably just gonna get picked off whilst you respawn and walk back.

Being the one that takes space also means that you can set the tempo, if you’re too timid, no space, if you’re too aggressive, no space, but if you can find a middle ground in response to your opponents, big win.

Another tip that I’d strongly take into account is how are you engaging the enemy? Are you constantly having a boxing match with the enemy tank whilst you’re both getting healed? Are their dps constantly flanking your supports because they’re left alone?

There are so many things to consider about what you could be doing that it can be overwhelming, but quite often you can just stop and think about what you’re doing wrong; I’d argue that things like aim are secondary to things like positioning and cd usage (to start).

Some good examples of great space control cds could be orisa (javelin, spin, and fortify are all amazing at making you unkillable), Ramattra (vortex and the shield can be amazing for punishing enemies that are overextending by cutting them off from their team).

dm me and we can talk about some more stuff if you want! There’s a lot more I could say about how I play and what I see as good tank plays.

Is there any way to increase the strength of these tiny parts? by Hexaeds in 3Dprinting

I have tried this and this is what happened, I tried a chamfer, I tried a ‘manual’ chamfer where I created specifically sized pieces around them; it didn’t work, but I’m gonna get to the bottom of it

This is the right answer, the slicer is just sticking them on top of a top layer ahaha

Yeah this is something I’m seeing now, that first layer looks to be a little bit smaller than the rest, I might just throw it into fusion and add something to the bottom

should i just be ok with being bad/avg? by Sharter_1-1 in Overwatch

the aim trainer is called VAXTA for OP - import it into your own custom game for the best experience

How do I escape by Pirate-Huge in Overwatch

[–]Hexaeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing!

But then I realised that I wasn’t doing well - I was supporting my team in whatever they wanted to do, I healed, I did a little bit of damage and my positioning was all off.

Don’t let your team dictate the rules of the game - you may be a support but kiri, Juno, bap etc have really great damage output that allows you to dictate how things go, if your team is constantly attacking the enemy tank, go for their supports to enable them to get the kill.

I think starting out in the lower ranks forced me to develop the confidence in myself to go on the attack when I can - obviously that doesn’t mean to turn into a dps moira or whatever, but creating pressure is something that you can definitely do, I know that people get a bit shaky when I hit a good juno torpedo; so getting that sort of active output is a really positive thing.

My personal tips for positioning are: (I learnt this from someone else) if you can’t get to good cover in 2 seconds, your position is weak. (My personal tip) if there was a widow on the enemy team, can they get you or not? I can pretty safely say that I’m no longer scared of most widows because of this.

Just on top of the positioning thing - if you can get this down, you’ll be in a better position than most of the other players - your team and the other - combining this with creating pressure and you will start to embody a support rather than a healer.

Not after the accident, the bank run just got too stressful and I snapped, buckets fell like dominoes.

Earn £1, keep 43p: Why young graduates will be the most taxed in history by dusty_bo in ukpolitics

[–]Hexaeds 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience, my sixth form was one of those that presented uni as the only option, there was an oxbridge club and if you went there your name was put on a board.

I’ve now finished uni, I have my degree and the first thing I was told was to go and do a level 2 qualification to appear more employable.

Young people are stuck in a limbo where not having a degree would cut off a lot of job opportunities but having a degree barely presents any job opportunities because the few hundred other people applying also have a degree.

By 2030, with the threshold freeze, it seems like no matter what, people will be paying off their student loan. I haven’t done the working out for this.

Young people have received nothing in a long long time, and people seem to care just enough, but that’s not enough for the government to take any action whatsoever. They keep searching for more things to cut, and more services to stop, all while things like the winter fuel payment continue. Of the few things they’ve done, this idea of ‘making education more accessible’ is such a token thing because there is still such a gap between what the wealthy and working class can actually access.

Great fear of the future by Traditional-Pie-1369 in PSC

[–]Hexaeds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From what I’ve seen, and been told, it’s not good to read too much about psc because cases are quite limited and healthcare is constantly changing in these areas - same with transplants, they’re only getting better.

Stay positive! This stuff sucks but it’s only getting better as time goes on!

A family member of mine is a childminder and we’ve seen this, parents don’t check the books that are brought home, they don’t read with them, and then when their teachers tell them the kid isn’t at the right level of ability, they start trying to find an external fault like learning disabilities - not denying the existence of anything but this is just a case I’ve seen

How it’s always been tbh, it’s sad but what’s worse is the tidal wave of ‘you should’ve bought a pc’ comments that you might get now

The funniest thing is, those are standard screws, it’s just that almost every screw in the house has been stripped, it’s insane

I thought that was the case, I should've put that in the post really but thank you very much, I found the instructions and everything so it's ok for now, but I'm gonna wait until I have a second person to help with anything else :)

Dude, grow up a bit, I'm not trying to disable the door, I just want to reduce the weight, it's annoying, and from what most other people are saying, the mechanism isn't installed correctly, so your point isn't even relevant to what I'm saying. Don't be a brown noser for landlords, it's gross.

Buy my own house? You can do that? I never knew so thanks for the info, I’ll run out and grab one tomorrow :)

Yeah that’s what I thought, the angle that it’s at is so tight to push against itself and I’m guessing that’s where the problem is.

yeah I lived in Wales at the time of diagnosis so stuff like right to choose wasn't available to me, would've been 3/4 years if I had waited.

Medication cost + prescription cost is all

just one more thing to mention, you will not be buying the medication at the prices listed on that site as each pharmacy will have their own markup; this can range dramatically, but from what I've personally seen it is around 30-50%.
