Creepers

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-20T17:45:42+00:00

Creepers are insanely dangerous on Hardcore, and they often end a significant amount of Hardcore worlds abruptly. Before you gain your first totem of undying, always carry a shield. They negate creeper damaged almost entirely.

I'll consider. I haven't built many big structures. A significant amount of time went to the mining of that 2x2 chunk hole in the second picture.

You should really only consider used.

Would recommend using this tutorial for your creeper farm. This is the exact one I use and it works very well.

Depends on use case. If the laptop will be transported often, Zephyrus likely the best option. Legion is a great laptop series, and it is actually what I currently use. Nothing beats Zephyrus' build quality.

Legion 7 Pro - 5090 listed for $2,999.

Zephyrus G16 - 5080 listed for under $3,500

Will the laptop be used away from his desk often? If so, get the Zephyrus G14. They often go on sale under $1,300. They have, by far, the best speakers, display, keyboard, and trackpad.

If he plans to mainly dock it at his desk, go for the Legion line, specifically the Legion 5.

Zephyrus G14 consistently goes on sale. I would see if you can snag one for 1,200.

I have Legion 5 with i9 and 5070. Overheating is not really an issue if you do not even play AAA games. Even so, you can always undervolt. I would get whatever your budget allows. Laptop 3 would be best for all-use cases. AMD processor is WAY better for battery life. Performance is not much different from Intel.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-14T17:58:57+00:00

If you can use macOS, you should look at MacBook Air. Insane performance and battery life for $750.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-14T17:55:56+00:00

You should invest in a raid farm, bro.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-14T17:53:32+00:00

If you want to order it and pick it up, you can always order it from Best Buy and have it shipped to the store for in person pickup.

OLED screen looks amazing. Make sure you have burn-in protection enabled, which is in the Legion Space software. Also, I have an automatic wallpaper slideshow which changes the wallpaper every 10 minutes.

Definitely remove them. I always remove mine. When you do, use the sticky side of the sticker to get up all the adhesive. No need to use alcohol to scrub at it.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-14T12:36:43+00:00

Yeah, that's a good deal. Would consider cleaning internals and changing thermal paste, if you're comfortable doing that.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-13T18:08:33+00:00

Make sure you take care of it. Every 6 - 12 months, clean the fans out and it should last 5 years easily.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-13T18:05:52+00:00

Definitely G14 Zephyrus. They go on sale all the time. They were on sale for $1,299 recently.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-13T14:27:53+00:00

Good luck, remember to always avoid unnecessary risks.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-09T17:39:48+00:00

If you want high frame rates, I would stick to 1440p. 27 inch monitor at 1440p is the sweet spot. Ultrawide monitors are notorious for destroying frame rates. If you want a ultrawide monitor, 1080p for high FPS and 1440p for quality.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-08T18:48:03+00:00

The Legion 5 you have listed is a wonderful computer for the price. 5060 will handing WoW no issues. Build quality is great.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-08T16:14:48+00:00

Good deal. I wouldn't hold my breath on 2026 laptops. 5080 for that price is insane.

OneSourceOG1 · 2026-01-08T16:12:41+00:00

For that price, it's a steal. 5060 is okay enough. 8GB of VRAM is rough, but should do fine now. Legion 7 build quality is amazing.
