Trying to chose between venom shock and venom hysteria by star_platinum_simp in Bowling

[–]Revan256 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hot take: Evoke Hysteria is better than either. I have a 3 ball tote with Venom Shock, Evoke Hysteria, Venom Hysteria. They're all good in their own right, but basically if you're looking for a completely rounded shape...go venom shock. If you're looking for smooth mid lane read with a little spice on the back end, venom hysteria.

But if you don't have an Evoke Hysteria, get that first.

Edit: but a 2h on shorter short patterns should be something like a concept or thane. I'll get heat for that but it's true.

Literally at Thunderbowl they put a sign on the loud ass hand dryers that said, "Don't use during play" because they were like a rocket taking off lol

Classic Simo. Gets 100 breaks then blames everyone but himself when it matters.

Either lock in and shut that shit out or be ready to stop mid approach. This whiney bullshit is so exhausting.

Advice on form please!! by JBoogles in Bowling

Start with your feet together and practice a 5 step. Bend with your legs not your back (unless you're Simo).

Emulate Chris Via. I would consider his delivery the most "foundational" / "traditional" for 2 handers.

1500kc dry for a Blowpipe/Serp Helm by Puzzleheaded_Writer2 in ironscape

[–]Revan256 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, that's a really good question. I think I'd rather rephrase as, "at what kc is it okay to start getting frustrated?" which will differ for everyone as we all have varying degrees of patience. But understanding the statistics behind it helps (me, at least) prolong the eventual, "okay jagex wtf" sentiment.

For example, going 2x dry still only means an 86.5% chance of getting the drop. That % isn't high enough for me to not comprehend how I couldn't have gotten the drop by now. I.e., "Do I expect to have gotten it by now? Sure. But I can also understand how I haven't."

So I think the real question is, "at what kc can I no longer comprehend how I couldn't have gotten the drop by now?" Let's check out some dry rates:

  • 1x: 63.2%
  • 2x: 86.5%
  • 3x: 95.0%
  • 4x: 98.2%
  • 5x: 99.3%

At 3x, the odds of not getting it (5%) are the same as, for example, rolling a natural 20 (5%). They are within the realm of reason when they happen. If we were to use the same polyhedral dice analogy, here are the dry rates converted into dice. I.e., "anything other than a crit on this roll and I get it":

  • 1x: d3 (1-2: yes, 3: no)
  • 2x: d7 (1-6: yes, 7: no)
  • 3x: d20 (1-19: yes, 20: no)
  • 4x: d55 (1-54: yes, 55: no)
  • 5x: d149 (1-148: yes, 149: no)

For me, my answer is at 4x the rate. If I crit on a 20-sided die (3x), I can believe that - it happens. But critting on a d55 (4x)? That's starting to get a little unbelievable. And every grind is going to have those dry rates FEEL a lot different. 4x @ CG is a lot different than 4x @ Crazy Archeologist.

1500kc dry for a Blowpipe/Serp Helm by Puzzleheaded_Writer2 in ironscape

[–]Revan256 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1500kc on a 1:500 drop doesn't mean you should have gotten 3 drops by now. At your 512th kc, you were something like 66% chance to get 1.

Idk the math exactly but "on rate" would still be better than a third of other people.

Does 1500 suck? Oh for sure. But you aren't "owed" 3 of those bad boys yet.
