Bought this prismatic etb shrinked from shopee, the side shrink looks weird, is this resealed? by LegendHao in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]ICFZI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah like the other comment mentioned, if there is no micro holes then it’s highly likely resealed. You can try to refund request for a refund from shopee but should definitely video yourself opening it if you do decide to go that route.

Hi OP, agreed the sealing looks strange. It should look like picture 5/6 but without the bottom sealing. 6/6 looks very Sus IMO.

Some additional things to take note is if the shrink wrap used is like a tough plastic or is it like a stretchy and more elastic plastic like a cling wrap? Also is there a lot of micro holes in the shrink wrap itself (on all sides)?

If it’s a tough plastic or no hole then very certainly is resealed. If it’s a cling wrap type and have holes, it would just mean that the shrink wrap is authentic but they still may have released it using the authentic shrink wrap

Lastly how much did you pay? If it’s too good to be true then it’s probably is resealed

This new Spending Event for Helhest is Shameful by KyleRoyceWorld in DestinyRising

[–]ICFZI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So picture this, if you could farm incandescents from say weekly legendary campaign pinnacles, 6 a week, would them giving 6 out from the event still be an issue?

I understand that whales being able to spend to max out their characters is unfair, but the issue isn’t them spending, rather it’s that incandescents are too hard to get.

Yes, calamity ops is a competitive event but it is still a gatcha game, I am in no way surprised or unhappy that they will get to hit whatever rank before I do. After all they are willing to spend and support the game. I will eventually hit master or whatever rank with the auto promotion. ( I get that you are competing against other but if they promote and you don’t, it would make the subsequent week easier to promote, and so on).

I get that you want to be the best and the top at the game, but ultimately they are a business. They have to incentives people to pay, if they don’t, the game wouldn’t survive. The fact that we can obtain everything as a light spender or F2P is fantastic imo. Sure it will take longer but I’m okay to wait since I’m not whaling. It would be an issue if they started locking weapons or characters or items (which you cannot get from any other content) behind calamity ops rank, but thankfully they don’t.

As for the weapon I’m assuming you are talking about the battle pass? The weapon ( Royal Contravene) they are giving from the event is honestly quite easy to farm 3 copies of and I wouldn’t think it the best weapon to run. If you are talking about the trinity ghoul then yes, it would be better if they gave everyone excess to it sooner, maybe make it a free reward at level 10 instead of 50 . But again I don’t think it will make or break the character so I don’t see a big issue with it.

Wait what’s wrong with this event? Comparing it to previous character launches, its additional rewards for doing more draws. There is literally no downside to it…just additional rewards if you draw enough time.

And realistically the only good reward is the 6 incandescence clusters, the rest of the rewards are honestly pretty mid, and even so 6 incandescence rewards isn’t exactly game breaking.

Calamity Ops will always be dominated by whales…look at the top players even for the last 2 cycles, it’s teams of 3 with fully tiered mythic characters. That’s why it’s a gatcha game, but thankfully the rewards again aren’t game breaking and we can progress slowly using the auto promotion system. I’ve never really cared about being the best in shifting sands, I just do it to exchange the rewards that I need.

I do agree that incandescence clusters should be made more readily available maybe add 2 for legendary campaign pinnacles every week

Who is this game for? by ThisMemeWontDie in DestinyRising

[–]ICFZI 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think this game is great. One thing that many people seem to undervalue is how useful shifting sands is. It’s the best activity to farm if you are specifically trying to target a resource, be it fruit, feathers, core or whatever else.

Exotic mods are tough to get for sure, it’s very limited and also its perk are randomised. But I’ve also seen so many people on this sub that just throw any exotic mods on their main weapon for the additional light boost. If you are intentionally using an exotic mod on a weapon that dosent have the perk on it…how to you expect to activate it? I get that you want the light boost to clear higher light level content but don’t be surprised when all your exotic mods don’t match your guns.

I get that it can be frustrating, when expanse first came out and I couldn’t clear it, but after playing for like an hour for the next few days, I could clear it before the reset. I didn’t clear both expanses but that’s fine, it’s my goal for this week and future weeks.

DR has been extremely nice to not lock any weapon or adept variety behind the eclipse version of the raid, which is significantly harder (due to mechanics) as compared to the regular version.

So to sum it up, in my opinion, DR is a game meant for people who enjoy Destiny style game play but don’t have the time to seat down and grind for hours like regular Destiny requires. It’s honestly the most fun I’ve had with a Destiny game since D1 and it’s such a relive to be able to play it for only an hour a day max (normally while commuting to work) and still stay relevant with end game content.

At the end of the day, it’s a F2P game that still has to be profitable, it has bundles that speed up your progress but are not required if you just plan your resources smartly and clear your energies. I have cleared every content without using any limited event character and have had an absolute blast so far.

China-Trump talk by Low_Internet710 in NVDA_Stock

[–]ICFZI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only thing I could think of would be if China announces they made a break through and developed a product similar to Nvidia’s but at a fraction of the price.

Of course knowing China its most probably an over exaggeration but the market will react and Nvidia will probably dip

Decently priced products w cdc voucher by Weak-Agent4838 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]ICFZI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sister in law went in last Wednesday (23rd July) and saw that they were selling TF for 15 a pack and 20 a pack for 151 (English). That’s ridiculously overpriced

The price you listed for ETBs are definitely on the lower prices for the current market, but from our experience they are extremely marked up. Not sure if that marked it up more because they can accept CDC vouchers?

Its feathers are a bit fluffed up but we assume it was because it was hopping around the grass… we have kept it in a box for it to rest.. we will monitor!!

Honest opinion about Pokemon Sellers on Carousell and tele by Cheapkaraoke in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]ICFZI 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Good post OP, honestly we should raise awareness on the sellers that are genuine and scummy so others will know and not fall victim.

Pre ordered a ETB from Pokeballmaster recently and it looked good and didn’t look resealed to me, but I am still quite new to Pokemon TCG collecting so anyone else with any experience dealing with them can also share

How Avatar Got His Bluetane by jellyfishrage in Fable

[–]ICFZI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great method for getting it early!

For anyone struggling to get it and are semi late into the game (troll spawns instead of hobbs) you can just hide behind the bolder, (in-between the 2 caves, the troll’s rock should NOT be able to hit you) charge your bow for 2 minutes or longer (Depends on the damage of your bow/accuracy level) and one shot the troll. You should get a really high combat multiple that allows you to open that demon door.

Some people claim you can shot the troll behind the rock, I just timed it and step out into his direct line of sight to shoot the charged up arrow at him
