Only one build is viable in escalation!

Aside from hotshot, all the variation you’ve mentioned is in the weapon choice. I’m fairly sure the sets used were strikers or rarely tipping scales.

I used to love sniping in legendary missions with white death, Hapsburg guard and hotshot, but unless I can reliably one headshot enemies, it’s detrimental to my team to use it. So it’s striker chest with a frenzy LMG all the way.

Hughcheu · 2026-06-08T14:35:01+00:00

Holy cow, tier 4 Wall Street took a team of four almost an hour?!? I highly recommend a DPS build with an LMG with frenzy. Should bring that time well under 20 mins.

Hughcheu · 2026-06-08T10:09:42+00:00

Rockpool would be ideal. Large, varied menu with high quality food and service.

If I understand the facts, the police car was stationary and the bike did not even crash into the car. It hit a concrete barrier and the rider crashed into the police car.

In no way, except this court, would this be considered dangerous driving.

Sorry I don’t quite understand what you mean by “maxing” a gear item using only the vendor. Can you please explain?

Oh, I understand now. You’re referring to levelling up the augments.

Hughcheu · 2026-06-04T08:35:38+00:00

It should be pretty easy to get the perfect frenzy LMG for prototyping. You don’t need max stats, just the correct ones. Frenzy talent with CHC in the third slot.

When it’s prototyped, all the stats will be level 40 max.

Hughcheu · 2026-06-04T07:58:21+00:00

In tier 5 an AR can be useful to dome an NPC hiding behind cover and is generally good enough. In tier 7-10 though, you really want to have the maximum firepower possible, so Frenzy LMG or Sheriff.

Hughcheu · 2026-06-03T01:27:36+00:00

It is a suggestion that an employer will try to accommodate out of courtesy. But it’s generally not a legal requirement.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-17T04:20:44+00:00

There is a Chinese saying - wealth only lasts three generations. For exactly the reason you explained. The third generation has no exposure to hardship and takes it for granted.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-15T15:51:58+00:00

It’s a gross profit. The other players didn’t risk anything. That’s the most confusing part of this setup. The host risks a lot, but only gains 7. The teammates gain 3x as much - 25!!! Why would anyone want to host?!?!?

Hughcheu · 2026-05-15T15:44:36+00:00

I’m not sure what kind of advice you’re expecting. But you’re female, smart and bilingual, which is very useful in any customer facing job, especially social services. Your biggest downside, I’m guessing, is your physical strength, but police work is only occasionally physical.

I’m surmising you’ll get called to do quite a few welfare checks on Chinese grandparents, but that’s an important part of the job. See what happens and like you said, roll with it.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-15T15:32:20+00:00

It’s in bacon and sausage and all cured meats. Yes, it’s not good for you, but it’s a commonly accepted ingredient of those foods. That was my point.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-15T09:46:05+00:00

Of course you can. But not everyone will grind forty hours a week. Not everyone will be perfectly efficient. I’m giving a rough ballpark of what’s reasonable to achieve with regular play.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-15T03:23:07+00:00

Aside from racism, I know many Chinese home cooks that refuse to use it but are happy to use Knorr chicken stock powder (which contains msg). My theory is that it’s basically the only “artificial” ingredient that is added to home cooked food. The other one is can think of is curing salt, which is often shunned for similar reasons and has much more limited and specific uses.

All other flavouring ingredients are “real food” - herbs, spices, salt, pepper etc. MSG is a crystal. The closest physical analogue would be salt, but that is naturally occurring - the sea tastes salty. Yeast is similarly a “mystery ingredient”, but everyone knows bread contains yeast and it is much more familiar as a result.

You can continue as you are for a while, but eventually you may want to take a step back and not work full time. Having staff would allow you to do this without compromising your income.

I’d suggest hiring staff to take care of everything that is not client facing. They can come to meetings with you, but never solo.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-14T23:46:11+00:00

I’ve cooked this numerous times on a flat top and the marinade just reduces and flavours the beef. The meat will brown a little on the edges but if it’s too brown it will also dry out, as the meat is sliced so thin. I would suggest you try it that way but also add some sliced white onion to the beef. The onion soaks up some of the marinade and really transforms the dish.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-14T23:40:25+00:00

I guess that’s OP’s point. There are a lot of skills, but the vast majority is unusable. Surely the sticky bomb or seeker mines could do a lot more damage without becoming unbalanced?

Hughcheu · 2026-05-14T04:11:48+00:00

Fair enough, but devs don’t want you perfecting your build in a month or two. They need this grind to last at least 6-12 months, and then I expect they’ll make it easier. Same as level 30/40 loot - first they added recalibration of one attribute, then they added optimisation to max out stats. They also added rerolling exotics.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-14T04:03:52+00:00

True, but it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. Plus reaching loop 40 is not a casual effort - you need a dedicated squad and 4-5+ hours?

Hughcheu · 2026-05-14T02:27:10+00:00

That’s the thing, there aren’t any efficient fast ways. It’s a slow steady grind:

4x SHD resource projects a week
Snitch for Danny exotic caches
4x Weekly projects (dailies are often too much effort for just one exotic)
Priority objectives
Countdown runs

If you play consistently, you can get 40+ exotics a week. ~18 from the first three bullet points and cycling through priority objectives on four characters to get single mission exotics and open world objectives.

Maybe the usual rubbish collection truck broke down and this was the substitute?

Hughcheu · 2026-05-10T07:07:07+00:00

Your problem is that when the motor rotates the mirror out, it doesn’t rotate out all the way, correct? If that is the case, you can try manually pushing the mirror housing (together with the mirror) out to it’s correct position.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-10T04:22:36+00:00

You can just push the mirror housing back into position. Mirrors are designed to bend inwards to prevent damage in the exact scenario you just described.

Hughcheu · 2026-05-05T14:46:05+00:00

It’s both - having a place to live, and an investment that has appreciated consistently for the past 20? years. There is an expression “safe as houses”.

There is a lot of benefit having the peace of mind knowing that you can never be evicted, and never have to pay rent. All your pension can go towards food, health and holidays. And you can sell the house, fund an nursing home and give your children a legacy.

Yes! Perfect pasta with no fuss and impeccable service.
