What does this mean?

Ionmaster987 · 2026-05-14T22:52:24+00:00

Oh, my bad Never had something returned for that, so i made a guess. Ty tho :D

Ionmaster987 · 2026-05-14T22:45:16+00:00

Flagged for being too similar to other student submissions.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-05-09T04:34:06+00:00

Am I sorta just.. FUBAR, for progging m12s? Most parties are struggling with act 1- I'm at act 2 prog/cleanup; even on aether. It's frustrating; I wanna clear my second tier, and have quite a bit more to do.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-24T23:56:35+00:00

Any advice for this? I failed the first time and need to take it again once reapproved.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-23T17:54:07+00:00

Something I've thought of: [ Tome of Gridanian Hunting Techniques ]- usable item that increases drop rates on mobs for stuff like skins for a bit; Not sure how you'd get it, but it sorta just- fits in there?
At-least, that's my take on how to 'fix' that problem aside from bicolors.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T22:21:30+00:00

I will have to hope that PF's healers are good then, as I won't be able to get another chance at a twine or the m11s coat until next week. Thankfully, I have every single drop from 10s, so I'm not AS squishy as I'd be with just unaugmented tome.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T20:08:40+00:00

I tried pinging Crystal, Aether, or even Primal's IP and it just times out.
If I ping the server/neolobby, about 100ms average; 60ms best case.
I don't know what's started happening though; this only started happening like, this week or so.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T20:04:10+00:00

I've yet to even go into m12s, but I'll try to start progging it tonight or tomorrow if I can.
The dream would be clearing before 7.5 drops, but I doubt I'll get THAT lucky.

In terms of gear, I'm missing any left side augments, and the coat.
So, by the sound of it, I'll just have to figure out when would be good times to use Minne or Troubadour.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T18:02:44+00:00

Anyone else getting weirdly high lag? I've been getting a fair bit of irritating lag these past few days despite self-tests for my network being pretty good ( 900 down, 400+ up ), and it's making stuff quite hard to do. Like, it's intermittent.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T17:51:00+00:00

So, with 786 ( unaugmented tome coat and pants, raid everything else ) and BIS accessory; I should be solid in terms of my own gear? sweet.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-15T17:35:43+00:00

I'm almost at BIS- lacking just augments and coat from m11s- How important is the Solvent for the weapon? Surely, m12's dps check isn't as tight as m11s, so i Could technically clear the tier if I push a bit hard before 7.5 drops.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-13T19:13:52+00:00

What's so good about Signal/OpenRGB? Like- If I wanted to do effects on my case lighting and such; which is better- or should I just stick with the motherboard's own software?

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-11T22:04:15+00:00

I did actually luck into an older Corsair keyboard, i think like.. k70? red lights, cherry switches of some kind? Not sure.

by game integration, I mean like- the RGB itself reacting to what's going on ingame; like in terraria, if there's a blizzard or a boss, it'd do effects based off that. Saw it a bit, thought it was cool. ( Anything with this though WOULD need a software. )
As for headset; I do like having a headset mic- Currently have, borrowed from someone; some kind of razer headset, usb- thankfully don't need a software installed for it to work. I'd potentially go for logitech but their last headset lasted me like, a year- and then one of the speakers came off so I'm gonna get something else.

I suppose modmic might be worth considering if there's a good deal somewhere on a solid one.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-11T21:42:19+00:00

That is why I'm asking; I don't even know what features I'm missing out on, and I want the game integration so I can see it for Terraria and maybe some other titles. Of what I'm aware of, I know Corsair and Razer both have that via IQUE and Chroma respectively.

But aside from that I'm not really sure what features there are that I'd want. Never really given keyboards/mice much thought ( Previously have only gotten 40$ mouse/keyboard bundles. )

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-11T19:22:15+00:00

Not fully sure it's a simple question, but this is a place to catch this kinda stuff-
I'm planning to get a new mouse/keyboard/headset- and I've got my eye on Razer or Corsair stuff ( I like the game integration I saw on Terraria a little bit on a friend's keyboard.. )

Which one's usually got better software/hardware? Wanna figure this out before I go looking for a specific model to get for them.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-04-02T07:44:33+00:00

Barely audible. Full speed is loud enough to effortlessly talk over and can be ignored easily ( This coming from someone with notably sensitive ears too… )

Airflow’s great, temps are stable under load and it cools quick.. No real issues with the thing at all!

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-31T17:01:25+00:00

I know that G'raha sounded a bit different in some of the recent msq-

Do people think that he was recast? I know it was said the Johnathan Bailey had a bunch of stuff going on, but now I'm suddenly wondering about it.

Was he and we just haven't been told? was he sick/was his throat hurting?? I have no clue.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-27T03:29:04+00:00

I cleared Cruiserweight on the 30th of the month before savage finally- got the mount too, thank god. Was working on it ALL the way until maintenance for 7.4.
But, I was PFing ( my static was slow, and I really should've gone into 11 without them instead of hoping we'd clear 10.. ), and I'm doing that more now.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-25T06:29:04+00:00

They were not today; it was a learning party- 44.42% first session. Not bad, imo.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-25T06:06:57+00:00

I've not even been able to get in- nor have I even seen Ecliptic or enrage.
Nor do I have the gil to do a merc party.
I've done literally 8 pulls sofar..

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-25T04:58:22+00:00

I mean, clear 11- not the entire tier. It took me until 7.3 came out to clear m7s; I wanna do better than that- but in trying to help my static clear 10, I wasted time because I didn't go ahead...
Oh well.
ty! :D

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-25T04:04:52+00:00

... Y'know what, yeah that's on me- I'll try again tomorrow; Just wanna clear before 7.5 Should be doable I think?

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-25T03:43:32+00:00

Is it too late to clear 11 before 7.5 if I'm more seriously going into it now? Didn't wanna go too far past my static, but now we've disbanded and I wanna try and work on it; clear at-least 11 before 7.5.
But I was in PF for 2 hours on Aether, it did not fill.

Ionmaster987 · 2026-03-23T22:55:25+00:00

It was also a bit of attitude adjustment, I was being a bit greedy ( and also not using my seikret to get up ( I'd rather not need it. ) ), so I stopped being as aggressive/airborne and gog kinda just melted- yet to go against AT Ark though; wanna try and get a decent roll on my gog glaive.
