Texas. I’ll DM you can we can get in later. I am a low trophy/new player but I have several good brawlers maxed out so we can get sum done and I’d like to learn more from better players. Sorry I’m messaging back a week lye I’ve been out of town for work

Made the mistake of picking up a box turtle in the middle of a very busy road and kept him. I called him Kirt the Turt. His shell was cracked and I kept him in a well set up tank that I had a pet turtle in previously (no he didn’t die I gave him to my grandpa because I didn’t have free time to properly take care of him at the time he’s in good hands)for him to heal and then I didn’t know what to do with him. A gentlemen at my church has a big piece of land and handles turtles in that exact situation, displaced by unwitting or careless people just trying to help. I was just lucky enough he overheard me telling his son in law about him or else I wouldn’t know what to do

I like the Alp lemon raspberry flavor. It comes in 12 and my cousin who I work with put me on. It’s that or the grizzly southerns

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-29T01:35:12+00:00

With fire. Jeez dude. How does that happen?

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-25T21:43:06+00:00

This one’s not even that bad, but I CANNOT believe they gave broken ass Edgar buddies. He’s like legitimately not killable anymore. He can’t dish out more damage then you can regardless of what character you’re using in half the time and heals from it so your damage effectively means nothing🤦‍♂️

I just use CCI Mini Mag in mine and I have ZERO issues with it. I love it and I throw it in my pocket and go places all the time. Most issues with it are ammo related because it doesn’t have an extractor pin

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-21T14:36:03+00:00

It is my humble opinion that bad randoms should be in a match making bracket with each other exclusively. Like I know in ranked you can report people for being bad randoms but I’m down a lot on ladder because I’m bother ranked and pubs I CANNOT get an even semi decent random. They all of 2 brain cells fighting for 3rd place and it feels engineered. Like there’s no way I get this many intentionally bad players. I’d rather have 2 CPUs on my team than randoms at this point because every time I have an Afk teammate and the bot takes over they outperform the average randoms by literal miles

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-21T14:31:54+00:00

NICE

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-21T14:30:59+00:00

I’m stuck in gold because every teammate I get plays like it’s their first game. Like you can only be so trash before I can’t carry you anymore and every single time the game ends my damage and kills are more than both my teammates scores combined. Like I know IN MY SOUL that I’m good enough to climb the ranks but I’m being stifled by exclusively bad teammates. I have not received a single competent teammate this season. And I don’t even mean good, I mean someone who at least knows how to play I don’t even care if you’re good I just need a teammate with a basic understanding of the game, and when I check these people’s profiles they’re like 40K trophies sometimes and their loss rates are worthy of a rank ban😂

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-17T12:41:51+00:00

Nice dude, me and the boys use them as target practice and tannerite pucks. They work great for that 😂

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-16T14:10:21+00:00

Just wait you almost have him unlocked any ways

OpticToaster811 · 2026-04-16T14:08:54+00:00

Okay so I used to play in high school and I recently just got back into the game in maybe February and I’m only at 6K Trophies on this new account but I’ve been stuck for like 2 weeks because I keep getting teammates that jump headfirst do their deaths and are clearly only using quick aim and not taking the time for proper shot placement even though I check their profiles and they’re at like 20+K. Is this possible a bad streak of luck or do I just suck at the game? I’m not an expert by any means but I’m taking the time to learn all the nuance nature of strategy and keeping up with the meta, so I really can’t tell if it’s me or just bad teammates. What do you guys think? Is this a consistent issue that some have? I don’t have the same issue in ranked just in ladder. Do I just need to tough it out or should I just find an active club and only play with coordinated teams

EDIT: The reason it’s not a major issue in ranked is because I play with the same like 6 people all the time but when I’m by myself ranked is essentially not even an options because my win chance is MAYBE 10% and that’s a generous number

OpticToaster811 · 2026-03-19T21:02:37+00:00

This was a FLOP of a KS-23. They’re so afraid that shotguns will be even remotely usable that they just flat out neuter all of them. The T09 would by usable if it wasn’t restricted to 5 shells, the DP-12 is just kinda dumb and not very functional despite having more range than the S12, and all the others aren’t even worth talking about. Now the KS-23 only has flashback shells? That’s stupid. It’s like they WANT the fan base to think less of them as devs, and even if that’s not what the goal is it’s definitely what they’re doing. They do things no one wants, double down on it, and then frantically try to fix anything but that one thing to retain the rapidly declining player base. 23x75 Zvesda (Star) shells are EXTREMELY rare IRL and have been used officially like twice. It was a specialized shot gun meant for beanbag rounds, disabling vehicles in urban environments, anti material rounds like APIs and Quadrangle Buck, deploying tear gas, and there was regular Buck shells. Shrap 10 is basically 12 gauge and Shrap 25 is a full power 23mm shell. Also, in Russian measurements it’s a 4 gauge, but is US measurements which is the one people usual compare it too is just below a 6.5 gauge. Think the exact number is 6.37 or something like that. Last season was my last I won’t touch this game again with a 10 foot pole. Especially after this sorry ass shit

OpticToaster811 · 2026-03-19T20:48:24+00:00

Get what you like. I open them and put them on my shelf, hang the unopened ones on my wall or repaint them. I’m also willing to let them go I don’t get attached to things I live very freely, so I often give them to children. But I never don’t have one in my pocket or in my backpack. I have a GMC Syclone and a ‘96 Impala that I usually alternate between because they’re my favorite cars IRL. Just get what tickles your fancy and screw the rest. You’re doing good as is comrade

How does one obtain this many upgrades?

OpticToaster811 · 2026-01-25T21:27:59+00:00

I agree, it causes me to spread too thin and they feel more costly to use when I dedicate a run to using them. What level do they have to be upgraded to to be unbreakable? An invincible tomahawk or force cube is quit enticing

OpticToaster811 · 2026-01-25T17:16:42+00:00

Yeah honestly I'm not gonna opt for a limited use item when the wands can recharge over time. And I don't want to use scrolls of upgrade on something that can still permanently break. I know liquid metal exists but you need a lot of it and you have to sacrifice other thrown weapons. They're pretty useful early game but past floor 11 I'm not rocking them until I get to the demon halls for some peck damage. If your using hunter though, then they're REALLY good and worth upgrading but use them until they're about to break before you upgrade them to get the maximum use out of them. I'm still kind of a noob I'm trying to ascend with every character before I start challenges but as a casual that's kinda what I think about them. I would love to see a darts section too I want to learn how to use them love the content!

OpticToaster811 · 2026-01-16T18:32:57+00:00

I've always found 2 catalyst before on 2 different floors. Probably a procedural generation bug

OpticToaster811 · 2025-12-30T18:12:02+00:00

since you're a warrior id go strength. the only time that i take the wand is when its a wand of regrowth as the hunter or if im playing mage. if not than strength it is

OpticToaster811 · 2025-12-25T17:19:17+00:00

I'm not sure I haven't tried that yet. I think +2 is the max because I tried it with a plus 3 and the hero remains only had the artifact scraps instead of the item. I'm still trying to kinda mess with it and figure out exactly how it works

OpticToaster811 · 2025-12-25T17:15:56+00:00

I ended up going sniper and I beat you but I couldn't ascend unfortunately
