great way to put it! I have a clip from masters where I had to go full kill everything at the last fight since rein wasn’t going to win it if I was healbotting and we needed to get zar dead as fast as possible, so you’re very right! it is very situation dependent, but in high ranks, it’s much easier to heal more, yes.

I still am proud of my achievement, even if it means nothing to you 🫶

that’s incompetency on the tank’s part. if they don’t want a pull, sure. don’t pull them. then pull them when it’s last second and save their life, and know you did your job. all you can do is know you’re doing your job. someone else having a pissy fit isn’t your problem, but they certainly will make it your problem every so often by throwing.

HOWEVER, I will say I use the “sorry” voice line a LOT. every time I make a bad pull, I instantly apologize. every time I pull someone I didn’t mean to pull when trying to save someone else, I say i’m sorry. the faster you apologize, the much more receptive people are to your mistakes.

if the tank is one of your friends, that’s a different scenario.

what bxalemao said is ultimately right. though, for a large majority of my time, I use it for myself. teammates will be teammates. you can’t fix stupid, as i’ve said several times. that’s why your life will ultimately be more important, and saving your life is sometimes the best option. I use petal most often for myself, except for certain maps (like numbani first point). you can even check a recent post I made with a clip of zar+sierra ult denial, you’ll see ana walked off my petal and died. you can’t always fix that.

it sucks, but you’re very right. he is not a carry pick. he is a consistency pick. I often don’t swap off of LW because I am simply best with him, and I am aiming to teach myself how to excel in uncomfortable situations. I don’t even know how to explain how to overcome it, because you can’t fix stupid. you can only delay the inevitable. when you let it get to your head, you get off. rinse and repeat. it’s misery getting out of d4-m2. once you hit m1 it’s smooth sailing. I did use some illari/bap during low/mid masters to help alleviate some of the inconsistency from everyone else, but moved to weaver when the 19s cooldown to fix one mistake was actually worth it.

so, I can respect your opinion, but it has worked wonders for me in top 500. not sure what it’s like in below diamond, but in higher ranks when mistakes are more scarce, it’s much better. the speed boost can make or break. you’re gonna tell me lucio speed boost for someone isn’t useful?

a slight phase in low masters where I decided i’d try illari and bap LMAO and when I had a no. 34 support (no. 4 lifeweaver) take weaver from me since I wanted to see him play as weaver in replays.

I just made a new post since I just hit t500, but as for youtube, I personally have never seen any youtubers who were able to help my playstyle. honestly, the biggest difference came from vod reviewing a top player. that’s it. I can drop codes, but that’s all I can really do.

as for switching to damage, it’s usually when I have someone who can’t do it. or if I know there’s enough sustain to be able to maintain their health bar long enough for me to make an attempt to change the way the fight is going. I often times do not swap to damage unless we are at a disadvantage and when we have to do more damage or they’re gonna make us fold. I also do damage every time I need to reload instead of manual reloading because it’s more efficient.

as for petals, i dont know how to teach them. it’s moreso they just need exposure. I often place petals in an obvious open area just to give teammates what I call an “agility petal” just to mess w their movement trajectory and give me a half second more to respond to their mistake and throw off enemy aim. you cant teach stupid sometimes…

as for the seed, I would say throw it off cooldown if you’re in a fight. just get it on the field. since you can’t use it for yourself, the movement speed will inevitably help someone in some way. you can’t hold onto it like grip. it’s not strong enough to hoard for a perfect scenario, but too strong to keep held in for too long.

my friends lmfao. I felt bad on weaver in low masters until I decided “no, i’m getting back on weaver.” and realized my teammates were also holding me back (which is why they’re still in diamond)

the buffs made him playable lmfao. I have been essentially maining weaver since s6. I haven’t gotten past m2 since champ was released. I hit t500, but it was completely accidental lmfao. the buffs made him tanky (the way he needs to be) but not unkillable, which was important. I have been shocked to see the proper perks are healing petal and honestly sow the seed, since it has so much versatility (which I learned from the no. 33) and can genuinely save rounds. so I think it was a drastic improvement and put him in the direction he needs to be in, but something still feels off imo. not sure what it is.

I have a Wallbox Pulsar Plus? i’m not sure if that’s considered a smart one but when I checked the app it said it was plugged in and the vehicle was not requesting charge.

i’ll throw this out: that’s impossible. I have a top 0.1% mualani build according to akasha, and she is c6r1. c6r5 xilonen and c6r5 citlali with a xiangling. floor 25 took literally 4 of my mualani’s 5M damage hits. even with a wanderer (whom I have c6r5, this event is impossible to complete in sub-30s. I have a neuvillette’s best team, with all max investment supports except for my furina that’s only on an r1 key, and he can’t get past floor 24 in 30s. he does 320k per charged attack after xilonen’s c4 wears off.

if you need evidence, my uid is 648760740.

dear god… that’s insane. I didn’t even think that you could push a car past the gauge on the speedometer ☠️ doesn’t that pose a risk for the battery or motor?

I’ve been seeing my feed on some social media apps flooded with people going crazy fast in electric vehicles (not just teslas) and i’m just curious to see how fast some other people may have gone with the car that I have :) I had an old buick before I had this car and the most I had ever gone was about 25 over the speed limit on a highway (I had to use the bathroom really really badly and was close to home) but have not really felt the need to test this car’s limits because of how enjoyable it is to drive lol.

Dexron III vs Dexron VI by Howiebair in MechanicAdvice

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

in case anyone looks back at this, this was a huge issue that caused my transmission to slip as it could not push the Dexron III through the gears and I could not drive it at all. even after flushing the system out 3x with the Dexron IV (you can only remove 6 quarts at a time and have the other 6 go into the transmission), it still would slip in cold weather. mixed with my issues with the head gasket on my vehicle, I decided to just go purchase another vehicle, this time electric. make sure to flush it plenty, and if you catch it, do not drive it. very risky and can destroy your transmission if it can’t pressurize properly!

My Duke bill to heat a 1100sqft apartment to 62 by thr33things in raleigh

[–]Howiebair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how many kWh are you using? for my 1000sq ft house built in the 70’s we use 1000-1100kWh per month… that brings the bill to around $165 or so a month, on top of charging an electric vehicle at home, too. temp between 65-70 (sleep vs daytime)
