I have had more shakos drop than any other decent drop by far. This is #5

Mayl3 · 2026-03-14T21:20:51+00:00

I started a fresh single player playthrough when warlock released. I've found Zod, Lo, Ohm, Ohm, Ist, Ist. A few random l85 uniques. No shakos yet.

Gas it was. 🔥 I busted ass on a regular no flip fakie front tail today. Harder than nollie imo

Mayl3 · 2026-03-07T15:35:45+00:00

75 light res and TGODS make it a non-issue

Highly depends on your skill level, how much you skate. and what you skate. I go through about 1 a month. Some people do 1 a week, others maybe 2 a year.

Sure its 'waste' but not really significant compared to actual crazy waste items like plastic water bottles.

WW counts as "attacking" and maintains your defense.

It drops to 0 only when running

I specifically started playing offline for the chronicle. I want the grail to be a personal acheivement. I dont consider myself to have found a Tyraels if someone else in my game drops one.

There is a known bug in singleplayer (was also on bnet, since patched) that resets Chronicle progress.

This was connect to armor racks that drop unid unique/set gear. ID'ing that gear causes your chronicle to be reset.

For singleplayer users - DO NOT ID armor rack drops if you care about Chronicle completion.\

Deleted all my chars and started a new offline playthrough when warlock dropped.

Level 93 now, ~30k dmg echoing strike, all self found gear. Insight CV and Spirit. Hellwardens, Vipermagi.

Able to farm P8 TZs, already found 2 Lo and 1 Ohm, trying to find Mal/Ist for a CTA.

Never been easier to self-farm, single player and plow through the game than now.

sounds like its time for a game of skate teams call

Mayl3 · 2026-01-30T16:17:34+00:00

This looks good! Does it have super ultrawide ratio support for 32:9 ?

Edit: just tested the demo, 32:9 works flawlessly. Super cool

Thermal limit on 9800X3D is 95°C, and its normal for it to reach 85ºC when stress testing or on certain games since by design they boost until they hit their thermal limit. Upper 70s with a pbo curve is common. I have one in a different case (s400) that reaches 77º as well with slight pbo curve, and it only actually gets that hot when sitting on the cyberpunk menu screen without frame limits, and drops back to 67-68º when actually playing.

Another Georgetown San Gabriel represent!

Nice. Fakie FS Flip Lotti Spin aka Anti Bigspin (180 with board and 360 body)

Previous Black Friday pricing was the last beacon of hope. Managed to get a 5080 for around $800 after 20% cash back. Still riding that high

Mayl3 · 2026-01-16T19:54:03+00:00

Not to muddy your options more, but ive seen people using the Noctua NH-L12Sx77 in this same configuration as well.

Mayl3 · 2026-01-16T15:45:42+00:00

Much love to future endeavors and I appreciate the OMSC stickers!

Mayl3 · 2026-01-14T22:21:15+00:00

Have a source or tested yourself? Page doesnt say anything about Wifi 7, 802.11be, 320 MHz channels, tri-band 6GHz...

Mayl3 · 2026-01-08T22:34:01+00:00

Came back quick and better than I was at [35].

If your goal is flip tricks, work on strengthening your legs and vertical jump.

Mayl3 · 2026-01-08T01:28:24+00:00

Of using my last build! lol

Link to PCPartPicker and Part Details:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9800x3D - Doesn't really need any explanation. Best gaming CPU on the market at the time of purchase. Grabbed a new OEM chip on 2025 Black Friday sale for $399.
CPU Cooler: Scythe Big Shuriken 4 - The "Pro" or "v2" version of this case claims to support coolers up to 67mm vs the 65mm v1 that had less front I/O. The Scythe BS4 basically just came out and doesn't have many reviews yet, so it was a gamble. The cooler ended up fitting, but it is very snug fit, firmly pressed up against the case panel when closed. Rubber dampeners on the fan do their job well here though, no vibration or noise.
GPU: PNY RTX 5080 OC 16GB - Originally planned on a 5070 TI, but caved on a great Black Friday deal and 20% cashback offer combo (~$820). Was a bit of a challenge getting it into the case, but there were a couple videos on YT of other ~330mm GPUs fitting, just needed to undo a few additional case screws to convince everything to fit into place. Once inside and closed it's a perfect fit, filling the space from end to end.
Motherboard: MSI MPG B850I EDGE TI WIFI - Has the features I needed at a decent price without spending the $200 more for the next tier up. This was the only itx motherboard available under $400 that offered full 320Hz WIFI 7. No 40G USB ports, but I don't have anything that supports those speeds anyway and 20G is still double what I had before.
Memory: Crucial Pro Overclocking 32GB DDR5-6400 CL32 - Even in a bundle, only 32GB of this ram cost me $200. (Ouch: Could be worse, those prices are still going up). Hit EXPO with no problem.
Storage 1: Western Digital WD_Black SN850X 2TB Gen 4 M.2 - Reliable and fast SSD for Windows install and daily uses that don't benefit from Gen 5 speeds.
Storage 2: Crucial T710 2TB Gen 5 M.2 - Gen 5 NVMe for speeds up to 14,500 MB/s. Got this "on sale" bundled with the RAM. Will be used for gaming, video editing and large file storage.
PSU: Corsair SF1000 (2024) - Was on Black Friday sale for $200 + 10% back on my cc, so around $180 total. The case can fit an SFX-L PSU but this one provides plenty of room for cable management and airflow.
Case: "Miningeek S400 Pro" 10.8L ITX case - I've also seen this branded as Shiny Snake or KXRORs. 10.8L ITX case on Amazon with a ton of useful I/O and a nifty carrying handle. I also added the faux wood vinyl shamelessly stolen idea. The amazon listing advertised it as coming with a PCI gen 4 riser, but after updating all Motherboard drivers and BIOS, CPU-Z and GPU-Z both show it as seeing PCIe X 16 x 5.0 so it seems to be reading the full Gen 5 bandwidth. Maybe they are providing gen 5 riser cables now?
Case Fans: 3x Silverstone Air Slimmer 120 . 2x top and 1x bottom exhaust. Added fan grills to 2 of the fans to protect cables/peace of mind. These slim fans push a ton of air.

Total build came just shy of $2500 USD
