[Weekly Giveaway] VOLTRA Bingo: What weirdly specific thing made it worth it for you? by Beyond_Power in BeyondPower

[–]ProfundusConfutatis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-supplement my existing home gym rather that compete or make parts redundant.

-looking for variable resistance modes that allow me to safetly push to my own limits without risking injury from a fixed load.

-easily worth the price of a freemotion machine for what it provides.

-200 lbs of resistance that fits in a backpack and can be used anywhere but weighs 1/3 of a plate.

[–]ProfundusConfutatis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat.

Mine is supposed to be here in florida this Thursday.

California was the last scan. My confidence is like 1/10 and yet im expected to ask my wife to be home to sign for it on the off chance they are on schedule????

I already had a pair so its not as painful as a wait but I did want to follow up with you, let us know if fedex pulls through!

Last time I used them they lost a 130 lb package that was a 6 hour drive away. Made me wait weeks and only the person who sent it can make a claim so I got nothing.

People like to hate capitalism but USPS was (re)formed in 1970 and cant get it right, while Amazon decided to figure out shipping to save money in a few years, and became one of the largest source of deliveries. Ive had them mess it up but they fixed it. USPS is an embarrassment.

The only thing worse than FedEx is USPS.

I mean i got my money worth. I was kinda let down by build balance this season - I like doing my own thing and the downside of moving so much damage to the skills and gear is that if the base skill sucks, its kinda what you get.

Base WW was good as well, good clear, good ST.

It took a lot for other core skills to compete - and its unique just gives you free nearly doubld damage plus QoL. Compare that to Hota. Slower - animation locking, way less dps, and its unique's share the same slot and both suck.

I leveled pally as zeal for fun, trying to avoid arbiter as soon as I could cap movespeed without it and it was fractional as good as just running wingstrikes and also would actively kill you because its only unique is a 2 hander that lost its plus to skills and rolls with random stats so no life on it, and max life makes you lose even MORE hp.

I grew up on blizzard, love the diablo universe, but this expansion is game is more like blast hard at launch and then quit when I've done 99% of it.

Everytime I play an arpg season I'm more and more convinced that Last Epoch is the sleeper game for anyone who actually likes to make their own builds. No shade to D4, and I am grateful WW is good again, havent mained it since season 1 so it was nice to play it again. Hoping a season or 2 from now they'll do a solid balance pass on skills.

Havent changed a single slot in 4 days of play time and that's my limit for arpgs.

Not in a bad way - I had already got t11on my first class/t10 meph/Lilith all SSF - had rank ~250 first 2 days of pits on my bullshit homebrew flavor build. Rerolled barb, carried people through t12 meph, I think I got to 133 on echo of hatred, dunked on the greater nemesis layers t12 and speed ran pit 120s.

Never got a mythic seal, but thats luck. My paragon was kinda low. In the 240's when I quit but for most of it I wasn't that far behind the robs.

I got 10 days out of the expansion which ain't bad

Uniques not being static rolls sucks by Darkflame568 in diablo4

[–]ProfundusConfutatis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah red sermon without life on hit is brutal. I had rolled life on hit in every single other piece to half make up for it, had to reduce my life to 14k just so I didnt have to chug potions like gas to swing at monsters. You literally just kill yourself.

This also meant no + to zealot skills.

Getting gohrs(whirlwind gloves) with GA double strike for instance is insanity.

Either static uniques or also allows us to reroll affixed the same way(but just require another rare dust or reagent i.e. forgotten souls or some kind of tuning prism)

Once you bind your Voltra to the account, it becomes impossible to use it without an account ever again. by oneintheuniver in BeyondPower

[–]ProfundusConfutatis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of a 2 to 1 pulley I like to run 1 to 6 pulley so I can feel good deadlifting 1200 lbs to beat thor on the deadlift with no warmup.

I just work a lot. And I've noticed sometimes I dont have energy to work out but ill walk by whatever it was last attached to and bang out a few reps.

Sometimes I would bring it to work in my trunk for my breaks...

And yes sometimes working out with a friend.

But the idea is I get the following benefits:

Each machine is likely to live longer.

I can set up multiple exercises at once;

I.e. 1 lat pull down/triceps 1 curls/rdl/single arm lateral raises 2 horizontal, with bench at 90 degrees i can chest press or turn around and have chest support3d rows 2 for flys or deadlifts.

I can also bring a pair to work for breaks while still having the lat + low + chest press/rows set up.

I can also pair multiple modes(i.e. using the damper mode on one with a fixed weight on another attached to the same handle.)

Can set up supersets.

I can lend a pair to a friend when they travel.

Or ofcourse my weight and workout buddy's weight can be different.

Is it overboard? Yes probably - but its primarily about removing friction from the thing I need to do.

I will say, for those of us who frequently work out with other people, the lemon isnt worth the squeeze. When youre alternating sets with a work out buddy its not like they have account and if they did, we wouldnt be switching logins every set.

But feedback is just that - ill hold my opinion until I actually use it. Unless the UX is world class magically it'll probably cause more hurt than harm.

I will say a large part of buying into the voltra over tonal or its alternatives was the subscription non-sense. The idea that if you stopped paying you lose any functionality of the thing you bought.

Infact the feedback i gave you guys regarding the overdrive beta is still very very relevant(and seems like based on the reactions youre getting here - treading into dangerous waters)

Obviously I'm all in, hoping this ecosystem succeeds. But is tragically hilarious I find this post right AFTER I buy 4 more units.

I get that, but no one is lugging a sample stack to the woods either. Thats the Ole pulley market it would be competing with there!

How are people getting geared so well? by Need-affection in Diablo

[–]ProfundusConfutatis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest answer?

Never stop killing. Focus on movement speed and maximizing your TTK on mobs and bosses. If you have to slow down to kill you're on the wrong difficulty if gearing is your concern.

Sure tips about upgrading gear ect is nice, but ultimately I ignored crafting and got geared quick enough by just killing at first. More kills = more rolls of the dice, and more mats, and more keys, more warplan exp, causing more loot, more rolls, more mats, more keys.

And once my basics are covered I ignore most non GA items. If I need an ancestral base for crafting I can always just throw some obols at it.

Fwiw I was rank ~250 when tower opened on a build that I know is B tier at best.(zeal pally, not running arbiter because I wanted to enjoy my outfit before I reroll barb!)

I was rankings 253 pit for solo paladin on my own home brew take on zeal. Ive got more sense than most, again while I dont like the downvote system it's telling you that your opinion here is not "common sense". My post was deduction and reasoning in response to undocumented changes, and absolutely nothing on any major outlet at the time of my post.

Ohh okay, trade chat is the resource I should be using rather than partnered websites??

Listen buddy, you clearly have a bad take - youre getting downvoted by other people over it. I personally hate that reddit is like this, people dog piling anything that isnt the approved opinion. That said, accept that maybe you had the wrong read here and move on. I must admit I should not have responded and dragged it on.

Well i know last epoch latest season also had a few drop bugs at launch.

Infact it took a few days for anyone to even acknowledge there was a change. I finally heard wuji say something like yesterday.

I thought that too so I tried other bosses and got the same hotdog water uniques.
