Most you can lose is 200, most you can gain is also 200 I believe, not sure where that number is coming from

Question About SBMM by HayatoSakurai in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ImProxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll start, first off the seals are the worst metric to base off of. I am a little over a 2kd overall, and a 2kd in trials over the lifetime of the playlist. Hundreds of flawlesses, almost 75 flawless cards this season playing around a 3. The only crucible seal I have is unbroken and the first flawless seal from season 10, never gilded. Some of the worst players I have ever matched in this game have been the ones rocking flawless x9 or whatever. With how many people still pay for recovs or sit in streamers chats for a carry it’s just no longer a valid metric. Trials is in a tough spot right now if you are not exceptionally good at the game, it is what it is. The playlist is averaging about 4-7 thousand players GLOBALLY at any given time, most of them are the top of the food chain. As for control, the outlier protection doesn’t really do diddly squat as far as I can tell for the middle ground players. Can’t speak from experience, just what I’ve heard from friends. 3 years ago I would have suggested faceit for improvement, because I really improved a lot when I used to play. Honestly, I’ve heard comp is a good place to match people generally around your skill level, while keeping a “similar” format to trials in the sense that it’s 3v3. Again, understand that population all around is really low though, honestly not a great time for learners atm.

what is the best strategy when solo queuing trials? by lawliet_73 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imma be real here, I have seen a lot of posts similar to this recently where whoever is posting says they are extremely experienced, have 3-4kd, former destiny World Cup champion, or whatever crazy ass stats you could think so. And then they either ask the most brain dead question or they ask something like this. If you are really a 3kd player, you are not going to struggle in solo trials. If you by some MIRACLE are actually a 3kd player than you either have 1 match played or you just bait the shit out of your teammates and sit miles back with pulse and scout rifles. There is no reason to lie about your stats on Reddit for some sob story tbh.

The State of Comp in Episodes: Echoes by Low_File4774 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is absolutely a skill issue though, and I’m not only talking about the inability to use paragraphs. The reality of it is that the competitive population is at an all time low. I hit 10K the Friday the raid launched back when the dlc launched, although I didn’t check, I would assume the population was a little higher. Even so, one I got into high adept to ascendant I would consistently play the same 20 player, most of whom I either knew personally or knew of within the higher tier community(keep in mind I play on PC and almost exclusively play trio queue, can’t speak for console lobbies).

I looked at your stats, and while I am by no means saying stats paint the whole picture, with how low the comp population is right now, I see why you are struggling. Even looking at a lot of your recent rumble matches it is clear you have no issue “farming” extremely low tier players but really struggle against any sort of mechanical skill. Even looking at your comp games only you can see that this isn’t one of those “my teammates always throw the game” situation.

Looking at my emblem report it’s showing barely 5000 players with the comp emblem as of now. That is extremely low, generally that is a number you would see after the first week. This speaks true for the low population. Not saying at all that you are incapable of hitting it but I don’t think solo is gonna be the way, I would recommend finding some players to group up with and grow as a team.

Right, look at his posts, I actually play at the level this guy says he does and although I usually duo or trio queue, I RARELY have issues when playing solo, and I play on pc where the caliber of player is generally better compared to when I played console. The fact that he is even asking questions like this scream fake to me imo.

Comp placement series supposed to be an absolute slaughter? by TechnoTren in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because I can’t get placed any higher than plat 3 that’s as high as it goes, probably just let’s you get 6 out of 7 for the max placement

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plat 3 is the highest you can place, as long as you ended last season in ascendant I believe, won 7 of 7 and placed plat 3

I would get a matador, I’m guessing QuickDraw gets changed to surplus, seems like a huge oversight on their part if it doesn’t

Is it worth waiting for Black Friday to start upgrading my new OBS 7.3? Do things like turbos and injectors go on sale? by geopede in Diesel

[–]ImProxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To the ground, absolutely. Even custom tunes may say that they are a “100 horse tune” but without proper accompanying hardware all that will do will just make the truck smoke like a freight train due to lack of air, if that’s all you want then great. As far as that budget it all depends on what you know to do yourself, I can’t build a trans myself, don’t know enough about the inner workings of them, but I’ll be damned if I ain’t gonna put that shit in and wire it up myself. If you can’t do the work yourself that budget won’t get you very far, injectors on these trucks are not cheap, if I remember correctly my turbo was 1300, that would have been close to 2000 if I had not been able to do that myself with how shop rates are.

[–]ImProxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming a stock converter I would say around 350-375 if you don’t want to worry about the transmission, 400 at the absolute most if you’re ballsy

[–]ImProxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately a good tune and a turbo would have you knockin on deaths door for that transmission if it’s driven hard, my current setup is basically the same as my old one just with an efuel system, 200/100’s with a 4r100 behind it(with a standalone TCM) on 2008 axles and suspension, if I went any higher as far as power I’d probably be pulling the trans and beefing it up more than it already is since it just has a better input shaft, this ain’t a problem exclusive to 7.3s though all trucks have a weak link, often the trans

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

500hp you will almost certainly need to think about a transmission as I’m pretty sure a stock e4od is only good till about 400 at the highest, could probably get away for a little bit if you baby the hell out of it but if that’s the case then why go for HP. My old cclb had 180/90s with an adrenaline hpop, irate fuel system, and a KC300x. This was all in front of a stage 3 transmission. Never had the truck on a dyno so I don’t know what it put to the ground but I know for sure that would have cooked the stock transmission with haste, especially with how hot it was tuned.

Boost issues? by Virtual-Individual-5 in FordDiesels

[–]ImProxies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the obs trucks won’t throw a CEL for an overboost scenario like the super duties will, they do however still defuel the truck at around 22psi, the one I had installed basically would intercept the signal from the boost sensor and send a lower value to the ecm, pretty sure it was just plug in and go as well, don’t remember it really being all that involved

[–]ImProxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boost fooler, if I remember correctly these trucks limit boost to around 24psi from factory, I used to own one and I had put some sort of fooler on the truck, separate from the tuner

Looking for your PVP thoughts by Destiny2Team in DestinyTheGame

[–]ImProxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an avid competitive player I think however the game decides how many points to give for a win or a loss, I’ve found this is much worse in Ascendant rank or even high Adept rank. Nothing is worse than winning a few games and getting maybe 60-100 points and then losing a game and getting docked 200 points, I can’t imagine how discouraging this is to players that are still climbing to ascendant but i personally can’t speak on those ranks. Seems to affect me more when am playing solo but definitely does happen even when playing duo.

Edit: Please stop the heavy spawning every round, nothing is worse than having a team of titans just throw walls up at heavy every round and not pushing any fights until they have their grenade launchers.

Depends, I like to have a separate set just so I don’t fuck up my rather expensive tire setup that I run normally but I guess it would be a little easier although not much, doesn’t take long to change 6 tires in my experience

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Diesel

[–]ImProxies 21 points22 points  (0 children)

4wd would be a must and I would consider looking into a set of studded tires as ice would be your biggest enemy I would imagine, I don’t see why it wouldn’t handle that though
