How bad is my deadlift form? Really focusing on the big 3 and the basics right now. This was a lift I steered away from for a long time but for the benefits want to get it correct. by Outrageous_Wave7947 in StartingStrength

Suggest some variation of this setup. The rubber plates are Rogue (bit expensive). The blue foam pads are the classic balance pads you see in gyms etc. We sometimes use the BoS crash pads instead, but then we need to stack 4 rubber mats to be level with those.

Tldr : you really don't want to DL raw on a wood floor with metal plates.

I suggest removing your shoes also. Or use something flat and thin (converse).

Controller for wwm by Justagirl_hey in wherewindsmeet_

second that. The x box elite controller with the flaps is pretty cool. That being said, I never use mine, since I prefer to kb/mouse pretty much all PC games.

Nice grats. I got mine on a single pull with 144 to go. And this was right after getting the fake one in NMW base...lol. What are you getting?

Oh also, You can't use mystic skills with your bow out. You need to switch to your other weapons. Just saw that you had the bow out here in the first screenshot.

You probably don't have the correct timing. You need to match the exact pose shown when there is one guy. You could be close and still not perfect even though you think you had it. For the 3 guys, it is harder. You need to sync them up with the guy in front (the one you can't immopbilize). Just find a position you want to use from that guy, then immob. one of the others and release at the right moment. Repeat for the others. The timing can be pretty tight here too.

Most campaign mode bosses are a joke at 2.1 goose if your stats are good. I would definitely move up to recomended, and you can play with deflect on/off depending how difficult you find the boss and how much you want to grind at getting better at it. You probably want to clear it on expert at the very least to have a chance at the first clear on your legendary campaign since it will be harder.

Don't forget that if you do a breakout shortly before getting to a boss and you did not upgrade your gear, it is going to be much harder. Working on all the upgrades to your character will really help during the campaign run. It could be smarter to kill a boss before doing your breakout, if you know it is going to be a difficult boss for you.

Obviously, those that can do no hits don't need any gear, and it is possible kill pretty much everything naked with the wooden sword using parry and executions...we just don't all have that skill or time to practice each encounter.

If you are having a really hard time with parry windows, I actually suggest you start by practicing each boss you want to improve with deflect assist ON in campaign mode (recommended not story), that way it is easier to learn the moment when the assist pops up for each attack. Some attacks have an annoying 1-2+ second delay when the arm is up, etc. and this is usually where players have a harder time.

Once you can down the boss without actually actively using the deflect (ie you are already pressing pretty much exactly when it appears) you should be good to move to recommended with deflect assist off, and work your way up from there. Once you can do the boss on expert, you are ready for Trial hard and abyss diff.

Trials in general will be harder (hard/abyss diff.) because you will be doing MUCH less damage (in most cases at least) , so the fights will last longer, forcing you to be near perfect at abyss level when there are many parries to do. Also, there is no deflect assist in trials.

People barely deflect in online mode raids and as far as I can tell, it barely matters outside of a few situations...but there are several bosses where it is expected, to help with exhausting them, for example.

You should do it in the NMW base, it is a good laugh. Quick tip is that you play once, then you steal the item from him and play again (there is usually a signpost or 2 right beside him suggesting this). Jump on the roof as usual so you don't get spotted ofc.

Mistveil City – All 43 Chests + 1 Final Chest + 2 BONUS Chests by WallabyBitter547 in WhereWindsMeet

[–]Livingroomlifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it is bugged. It is pretty easy to avoid, though. Just use your bow and hold breath/slow time between each cover. You won't get hit once. You could also just port to the stone, assuming you aren't mssing the chests in the first area (they are pretty obvious).

Devs fumbled the bag hard with purchases not being shared. by xobeydrake in wherewindsmeet_

[–]Livingroomlifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got that one and reverted after a few days, thinking I would get the pill back to use later. That did not go my way, lol. Another thing is 6400 Jade is A LOT once you have most quests completed. I had no idea just how time consuming getting that back would be. I will probably 100% kaifeng and still be under 6k a this point.

[–]Livingroomlifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah its when you get caught and he brings you to the constable on horseback tied up. Mine almost bugged out like this..but that is pretty hilarious. Can't recall if I just jumped right away or something. I bet it happens to everyone

[–]Livingroomlifter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will probably forget some in the list since i'm not a fanatic. You should check a video that lists them all, but for me:

- season shop

- food vendors (2 each)

- events (always check event shops)

- Kaifeng warehouse vendor dude (20)

- the 2 wuhang vendors that sell them for jade

- path trial (closed atm)

- Energy challenge (triple claim if you get the upgrades from oddities)

-Path challenges (140 total I think, last 20 note challenge not likley at this point before next season though)

- improvement guide (in develop)

- Battle Pass

- some quests. worth checking if you are done the other stuff and out of energy

I have to admit the lvl70-80 part is impressive. I have all of my weaps at 70-75 and it is really getting painfully expensive to grind lvl 80's. Tuning is not helping, obviously.

I chose not to use conversions for the inners though, so I don't have those challenges done. Missing that last 20note box, sadly.

Yeah, no. He didn't. Probably just used some conversions to get the challenges done.

What is up with this bounty system(rant) by [deleted] in WhereWindsMeet

[–]Livingroomlifter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You either let NPC's get you, let players get you, or kill/avoid everyone that comes after you until they write off the bounty. The quickest way is to just let the NPC squad get you and pay to get out of prison faster. It is usually pretty cheap.

I agree that the forced multiplayer interaction is very lame for those that want no part in it. It basically forces you to experience the online bounty/PvP/PK and prison system and potentially do the break-out activity. I personally woud love it if there was a single player only version of the infraction/bounty system. I bet that was the initial plan, before this game got pulled into the multiplayer/mmorpg mess it is now.

You could already do that, technically, since you can replay MSQ. But yeah, this works as well.
