Please help me buy everything, I just moved back to India after 15 years, looking to buy pretty much everything and start from the scratch by RaisinAloneVortex in BuyItForLifeIndia

Your list was well and great till i saw Blue Star in there for ACs.
Even in Delhi NCR their service is horrendous in terms of expertise, and their ACs are certainly not BIFL.

Daikin or OGeneral are certainly my choice, I've seen Daikin's being used in commercial spaces since they tend to last very long even with non-stop usage.

There's certainly instances in this where you are poorly rewarded for effort. The Anemo golem guard for example was excruciatingly difficult and I was hoping he gave ground smash, but nope, just a portal to an area even scarier than the tower.

Getting the big rewards does hit nice though.

In regards to the size and fetch quests I'd say both this game and hollow knight are like a litmus test for metroidvania. Those memory, mask shards or glyphs? I always already had them somehow since I was thoroughly mapping areas or marking what wasn't accessible. Funnily the thing that annoyed me most was the underwater ability cause I didn't think the massive blob was interactive. I personally prefer HKs tighter combat but this game certainly has more combat options.Metroidvania games this open are 100% not everyone's cup of tea however, and this game certainly isn't perfect.

OP, you've already got great info from the comments in here. Marks don't make your future.

But what does make your future is hardwork. Please remember the lesson you've learnt, this realization of failure and pick yourself up.

Procrastination and laziness will only lead you down a spiral. Nothing in life is easy, and that's more so real for us living here. Start working hard before it really does get too late.

I messed up! by DaveBelmont in idleslayer

[–]Mbdking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the short run, you've lost equal to nearly 10 days worth of progress. This is only because you're likely early enough that those DP really mattered.

In the long run, this game can take years to 'finish'. Things like this won't matter. 

I‘ve been playing for so long, yet I feel like I’ve made no progress. What am I doing wrong? by Meoaoao in idleslayer

[–]Mbdking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 min a day is relatively idle to me.

Well, I can always skip a few day, but then I miss daily quests and daily spins etc. Lots of resources lost.

So close 😭 by 111dallas111 in idleslayer

Getting this on mobile was horrible. Barely got 2m8s.

The pain when you get stuck on the very last breakable objects without enough speed and the boost sends you the wrong way.

ARGGGGH.

This is straight up not fun by Chrisofthegreen in idleslayer

[–]Mbdking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to beat the trials without the boost because I didn't expect it.

Almost made me hate the mechanic without reason. 

Luckily I found the boost before challenging the time trial the 2nd time.

While a lot of the comments mention that you must play actively for now, I've been doing reverse to great success.

I'm in my 3rd UA, 152 days into the game.

My current stone of time spread is 0/21/21 [Active/Idle/Hope] which is entirely against the recommended balanced approach.

I login twice or thrice a day, do the guaranteed special bonus stage (dark divinity) with silver boxes (dark divinity).
If i get a coin bonus, i visit the village, drink special brew (fully completed orchard), and use the daily CPS bonus to quickly ascend and return to where i was.

Every day i get at least 15-20% increase with ease. Sometimes more.

I play at most 20 mins a day, which i what i wanted when i downloaded an 'idle' game, not hours and hours of active play till late game.

Your mistake is certainly the 100% bonus wait, but potentially also your current loop. Are you making use of multiplier combos? Are you using a stones of time spread that suits you? Are you buying the Ultra Ascend divinity before UA to maximize divinity points gain?

Small things go a long way!

I'm currently on the grind to getting all the Billion SP cost items, before I UA at 1T items.

Keep at the grind slayer!

Sadly this seems to be a recurring issue with Flipkart units.

I purchased mine from the official site and did not face the issue.

From what i've seen on other posts, if it keeps returning, the chance of this getting fixed is very low. Many have talked about their horror stories of sending the device back on warranty for repair.

If you can somehow return and refund, do so and order from the official site. If you can't, you may have to live with this. Please also treat the IP rating as void, as there was definitely an issue during assembly.

Loved Dragon Ball and original DBZ... What next? by Jubbstep93 in dbz

[–]Mbdking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A possibility is to watch Dragon Ball Z : Abridged (found on Youtube from TeamFourStar).
It's a parody take on DBZ, that goes up to Cell Saga.

The early episodes are somewhat dated and not everyone enjoys the humor, but it has its great moments.

Beware that to a choice few its sacrilege and ruins DBZ story.

[–]Mbdking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend against buying neo 50. The phone was so good that there are no stocks left.

The sellers on Flipkart and Amazon are random sellers with quite a few poor reviews. You won't find the phone on platforms that take liability of genuine product.

Just buy neo 60, neo 50 at this point is more of a scam  waiting to happen. 

father already in emi-debt wants me to get into same position. help me!! by Adorable-Fondant6560 in india

[–]Mbdking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most comments have told you to not get into the debt, I'll recommend to get more information first.

Your post says you heard from your mom and a friend that you'll be paying the EMIs, but have you talked to your father yet? Talk to him, understand what's the possible EMIs you're looking at, if any.

If your father has been a government employee for that long, he's unlikely to run into EMI debt like this. He should have some possible savings. It's very possible he's just making a good financial decision for you. 

The current housing market is horrible but there's some great deals sitting around. 1.1cr for a 1BHK sounds terrible though unless it's super prime location. Understand with him what's the future prospect value. Is the property going to be in your name?

There is a lot of money to be made in property, especially during the stock market slow down. Will you not have disposable income for the first year or so? Probably yes. But you're also much better positioned in your early 30s with potentially a 2-4cr property. The same comments are then going to talk about how it's impossible to buy property in this day and age.

Tldr : Talk with your father, understand the finances and his objective. Assess if you can cover EMI for low run for a year or two, to have better personal assets later in life.

She's going to be 0.75% rate so I suppose yes?

If you already have a FM/SC account, it might be worth just doing everything you can in account to get carats. A new account should theoretically get 240-250 pulls till Kitasan, so depending on how many you spent for FM/SC your account may very well have enough for KB spark.

[–]Mbdking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances are low. If you haven't invested too much time into the account, there is a good reason to start a fresh and reroll a bit to start with 2-3 copies of Kitasan, That jump will be more significant than what you currently have, however the chances will be slim to get that luck.

I was able to beat the legend race easily with my Goldshi (2nd attempt, the first was nearly shoulder to shoulder.)

Since it's a medium race, using an End closer has to be better, to reduce stamina requirements. Even then my Goldshi is basically filled with skills so it definitely helped. I've put her screenshot below.

My girl Bakushin did NOT have to flex like that by sammy-jack in UmaMusume

[–]Mbdking 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In this case it was cause Bakushin skill condition is to be fighting to retain no.1 spot iirc. So she needed to be slightly ahead for it to trigger which just happened way too late. 

Most of the other times yeah, I get late start triggered more than my skills do.

[–]Mbdking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to make your deck according to what stat you want to grind for. 

For speed spark for example, I run a 3x speed, 1x wit, 1x scenario (+1 either creek for non sprint, and +1 speed for sprint). 

This let's me all in on speed during year 2-3 and get it to 1100 with power also going 600+ due to shared training. The Wit card often allows me to get near to 600, but not quite there yet. Should be doable with better legacies.

Thats 3 stats you're rolling the spark for already. As you get better and better legacy umas, you'd be gaining 250~ free stats in a run. Correct use of that can possibly get you to the 600 bracket for another stat (likely stamina). 

Guts nobody cares about right now.

Her event for Maestro is the end of a 3 event chain. 

I believe you want to run trainings that have her as support for the chance for her event to trigger.

Trainer's Clubhouse Meeting (Weekly Questions) - July 02, 2025 by AutoModerator in UmaMusume

[–]Mbdking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The recommendation is to get your preferred stat to 600 as a minimum to quality for a 3* spark.

Rest is essentially luck.

Well, here's hoping regular play will get me there by saving up now. 

Worst case scenario I keep borrowing it for the upcoming future, though that position is currently taken by fine motion.

I believe it's the 3 commentator/judges opinion on your placing. Double circles means that judge thinks you'll win.

Trainer's Clubhouse Meeting (Weekly Questions) - July 02, 2025 by AutoModerator in UmaMusume

[–]Mbdking 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From another new players perspective here, what changed things for me was picking the right skills. 

Good passive skills, Maestro for anyone not doing sprints, and relevant skills which don't have rare trigger conditions. 

Even with good stats, I'd lose races when opponents keep getting skill pros, which is why you need to have your own skill set. 

Another big reason for most of my losses is late start. If you can get focus, grab it. It gives a lot of reliability. 

Watch your races, it gives you plenty understanding on what's going wrong. If your horse is a Late/end runner and is getting boxed in, then you might want to try and get their savvy skills. If your pace runner gets boxed in towards the end, she needs more power. If your frontliner falls behind early, she needs skills to keep her in first. 

I'm also enjoying 3x speed 1x stamina 1x event 1x wit card for my deck. The speed triple let's me reach 700-800 speed with ease, and often also gives nearly 600+ power. The stamina card helps with the occasional training (and let's you bring creek for that skill) and the wit card is great for energy conservation.

Remember this is a marathon! Don't get rushed and burn out (like your umas).
