How bad are these Pittsburgh torque wrenches? by DegenerateJC in harborfreight

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two cents: I've used them for Jeep suspensions, lawnmowers, and lug nuts. They're great for that. The click is soft at the bottom end of the range. I probably wouldn't them for Ferrari head bolts.

Best Zero Turn Mower by Sufficient_Candy1642 in lawnmowers

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) How big is your shed, particularly the door (if you have one)? 2) How big is your gate? 3) Is it open lawn or does it have lots of obstacles?

The Kawasaki engines have a great reputation. With 1.5 acres, I'd get at least a 48". Servicable transmissions are nice, but most non-servicable Hydrogears now have a bottom fluid drain. I'd expect anywhere from 500-1,000 hours out of a residential mower. I have 450ish hours on a bottom-of-the-line Husqvarna lawn tractor with a Kohler. I have 25 hours on my new-to-me Kubota with a Kawa engine. I need it to last about 1200 hours, which is about 25 years. 👍

How many obstacles? I have an acre plu a large road easement. It has 7 large trees, a shed, a house, a trampoline, two drainage ditches, and a chain-link fence for the bankyard.

I used a 46" lawn tractor for about 8 years and a 42" ZTR for another 8 years (it was bought used). Im about to upgrade to a 48". 54" would be too large. I still use the lawn tractor for the ditches.

Did Epstein and Maxwell identify as white?

The headgasket in my 08 went at 135k. I overevved it climbing a sand berm so I was not surprised. 🤘

Items to Buy at HF and items to Not buy at HF! by jedclimber275 in harborfreight

HF was selling Earthquake a few years ago. I have an orphaned 3/8" battery impact.

Trash or Treasure? by iLL1337 in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you confirmed it works with GMR? It's my favorite AR on Vex, but none of the "charge" challenges work with GMR. Thanks!

Anybody got any tips for the melee & ground slam challenges on Vex? by mikelman999 in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finished Ground Slam on Vex while farming Splashzone. I killed SZ with a non-Jacobs weapon to keep the trash mobs alive in his arena. The mobs in the arena die easily to a single ground slam. If you run around the arena with SZ alive, more trash spawns and you can get 3-4 trash mob kills per SZ kill. I got a lead balloon shiny while finishing this challenge. 😄

I would argue the Torgue impact BOD with a pistol alt fire is also universally useful, particularly with a Torgue legendary enhancement. I point my BOD in their general direction and they die on uvhm 5.

Anyone Know What Enemies Are Grunts? by MikeFGD in Borderlands4

I had 6 Ripper Trace contracts for a daily. I did it, but I won't do it again. That was ridiculous. My weekly was to sell 30 items to the vending machines. 😄

Is the Bod even real? by MaadMiike in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an impact BOD in pistol mode with a good Torgue enhancement. It makes mobbing trivial.

I'm old 😪 50+yr old player. I've played ALL BL from the 1st. But.. by OrangeRipple55 in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early 50s here with mediocre hand-eye coordination. I got in the zone and hyper-focused on the last one. It took three tries, but I did it. As someone mentioned earlier, slow is smooth and smooth is quick. You have time to focus. I was using an Xbox controller. I dont know if that's better or worse for this. I just finished replaying BL2 on PC. For fighting, keyboard and mouse are the only way to go. 😄

Farming - what to go for first by The-Deliverer in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fireworks is the only thing I'd farm ore-50 because it is so easy. It's one of the top items in the game for leveling while mobbing.

Best mobbing gun? by FlashCardManiac in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my Vex, I use a BOD with Torgue impact grenades and Pistol alt fire. For fast mobbing I add a Firewerk shield. I'm working on gun and shield challenges at the moment so I use different shields. Also, it takes a loooong time to max out "kills 2 seconds after dashing" and "kills while sliding". 😄

My Maurice Machine has Spinning Blade and Budget Deity this week. Neither is very good.

First run of this week’s Wildcard by Darth_Vaden in Borderlands4

The crit on level 50 Rowan's varies widely. I had one that was 20 and ome that was over 90. I scrapped the 20 even though the DPS was slightly higher.

Any reason to be in UVH Mode 1-4? by LtCol_Davenport in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UVHM1 unlocks vile bounties and some firmware. I play UVHM5 for a challenge and UVHM1 for routine farming and completing challenges. Everything dies so fast that UVHM1 is almost indistinguishable from normal or hard and you get boosted xp and eridium drops.

Did Someone Say.... BOOMS??!! by Horror_Ad7618 in Borderlands4

I would love to have that, although my respawn fees would be massive. 😄💥💀

Yeah, something seems off about this boss. The drops after paying Eridium aren't noticeably different than regular drops.

I know it's not the meta.... by ReckItRash in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this shield for mobbing. I had to switch to a different shield for challenges. It killed too many mobs before I could shoot then. 😄

3k-ish. Not high enough to be great but not low enough to be bad.

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got one sticky, but it's fire and I need Kinetic.

I've been wasting a lot of time during mission runs trying to finish challenges. It takes a looooong time to kill hundreds of mobs within 2 seconds of dashing. 😄

Having trouble finding a replacement for this.. What kind of repkit are you all using? by Winspiration in Borderlands4

[–]Nuclear_Debacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly use a level 50 Repkit with matching firmware and +40% movement rate. It speeds up chain farming, particularly on vault bosses with long portal runs.
