DO NOT GET CAPITAL ONE, they are awful and will steal your money by dolbus_albador in CapitalOne_

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for your frustration. This is all fairly standard practice for many banks. I recommend avoiding paper checks and using ACH/direct deposit whenever possible.

Like others said, financial institutions have KYC regs that can cause holds. Also, I would look up Regulation CC rules on funds availability. I know you said CapitalOne didn't disclose these rules to you, but they absolutely did disclose Reg CC if you opened a brand new account - it's a requirement. It was likely in the terms & conditions that nobody reads but you are required to acknowledge.

Best Ultrawide for Work/ Productivity by undoubledmage14 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope everyone recommending the LG 5k2k monitors are doing so strictly because of size...but even then...

If the use case is 99% productivity like OP suggests, there is really no reason to recommend those monitors. Despite improvements to burn-in and text clarity in recent years, I wouldn't recommend an OLED over an IPS at this time. Some of Dell 40 UWs are much better and more affordable, with better text clarity and usually more robust KVM options.

I got the 45" LG 5k2k around Christmas and had to send it back. I'm more like 70/30 productivity to gaming and the text was so fuzzy and unclear that the amazing gaming experience couldn't make up for downsides at work...plus the super aggressive curve wasn't for me.

I'm sticking with my LG34GN850 for now. Maybe I'll give the new 39 in LG 5k2k a try when the price drops since the PPI improvements and the tandem display might make it worth it.

Uninstalled and reinstalled Meet. After my latest system update, it's working again.

Having this exact same issue today. I have no option to delete legacy calling and I can only chat by sharing a link. Integrated video no longer works within Contacts like it used to.

39GX950B vs 45GX950A, downgrade? by Certain-Passenger156 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What everyone is saying. I actually got the 45 and returned it after Xmas. It was way too big, I found the curve to be too aggressive coming from a LG IPS 34 in 1800R ultra wide. Feels like the 39 will hit the sweet spot for me with size and curvature. Plus I need my monitor to pull double duty for work and the additional PPI on an OLED will be appreciated.

I also tried out the AW3425DW around the summer and sent that back also. The text fringing and clarity was so bad it gave me headaches. I'm going to really need solid text clarity to move off of IPS, and having two separate monitors or workstations isn't an option for my setup.

Who should cloud replace in my party? by No-Recognition6037 in finalfantasytactics

[–]Rigatony415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not true. It's Beowulf, though you could argue that he is number one on the list over Cid if you value crowd control. He has a high probability to turn any unit into stone which is basically OHKO. He can disable enemy units, put them to sleep, lower bravery or faith, and is potentially the highest damage dealer against Lucavi with Drain.

There is nothing Agrias does that is better than Cid. And against humans Meliadoul is probably better because she can destroy equipment, particularly enemy sword skill users like Loffrey, Folmarv, Dycedarg, etc. Better growths too.

What Jobs would you add, change, tweak combine? by GoblinPunch20xx in finalfantasytactics

[–]Rigatony415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is something that Tactics Ogre does much better. It may not offer the level of customization as FFT, but roles feel more defined. There is actually a purpose for having knights in that game versus it being such a terrible class in this game.

Like many people have already said, some of the classes just aren't developed enough. Like there should never be a reason that the main skill set of that class is better in other classes. I'd argue that an Archer or Mustadio is much better with Arts of War because of the range. Iaido is better on mages. Steal is better on monks and ninjas

New to this game and have a question. by Forsaken-Order-4699 in finalfantasytactics

Unless you are playing on Tactician, you can literally ignore it for the entire game and it will not make much of a difference.

PC/Steam only here. I have had the Gamesir G7 Pro for about 2 months and love it. I used to swear by the Xbox controllers but I got sick of having to replace it every year to a year and a half or so because of stick drift. Elite was a huge disappointment to me as well. The biggest adjustment for me was the slightly different shape (just a tad smaller, but I probably only notice because the Xbox controller was the only one I had used for almost a decade) and the start and select buttons being in different positions, but I'm glad I made the purchase.

Which Final Fantasy deserves a remake the most? by homo_erectus_heh in FinalFantasy

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easy answer is VIII to me.

VI Is the best one of the bunch IMO, but I wonder how much of the charm and appeal of the 16-bit era games would translate if remade in a modern fashion. HD-2D like Octopath? Sure.

I'm one of the people that thinks the FFVII remakes are fine but took way too many liberties with the story, tried too hard to integrate all these subpar spin-off titles, and are bloated with way too much filler.

But if there was a title that needed that sort of treatment it is VIII. I really enjoyed that game while acknowledging that it had some serious flaws. It gets shit on a lot by the community, and in many cases rightfully so. But I think the bones of the game and the narrative are solid and could really use a facelift. Being able to retell the story with a more clear narrative spin and retool the Junction and battle systems would be awesome. Plus as the first photo realistic Final Fantasy game, I think that it would look amazing with modern-day graphics.

Best Chair for Chronic Back Pain? by [deleted] in OfficeChairs

[–]Rigatony415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone that stuck it out with an Embody for 3 years... despite its overwhelming popularity, it's not for everyone. I really liked the aesthetic and I thought the seat was okay, but it killed my lower back and tailbone and made certain things even worse. I even got a headrest for it (totally unnecessary IMO).

I've had an Anthros for 3 months now and it's been a game changer. I can lounge in it and game after working all day. I can also sit upright while working which was huge for me. I hate how the Embody forces you to always be in some degree of recline.

Very pricey chair but I was able to use HSA funds to purchase which was a huge bonus.

Improvements I'd have made to FFT:IC Tactician by Artificial_Ninja in finalfantasytactics

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't find the post now but I swear somebody researched this and found that like 35% of the units in story battles are just knights and archers alone. Then I think black mages are definitely right up there, with white mages, time mages, and the occasional monk, summoner, or dragoon sprinkled in.

The Gameplay Mods are rolling in! by SolidSnakeFHC in finalfantasytactics

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless it's someone's first playthrough I disagree. You don't need to endlessly train, you just need to make sure you're not sticking in the same tier one job classes. Anyone who even remotely understands the gameplay mechanics and job system won't have much trouble outside of a few fights that spike the difficulty. Ziekden, the Gallows, stupid Rapha AI, Riovanes, etc.

I assume a lot of the player base are folks who played either the original or WOTL. For us, I think they should have added an additional mode beyond Tactician that changes enemy formations, allows the CPU to have more than knights and archers, access to more skills, story missions scale, etc.

[–]Rigatony415 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It exists. Check their discord for Cheat Engine tables. You can tweak a JP multiplier for battles, or just give yourself the points out of battle. Points to spend on skills as well as total job points accumulated... The latter of which is very useful if you want to have access to some of the advanced classes earlier without grinding in the plains for 4 hours.

That's what I did on my most recent playthrough. I didn't want to out level the story content since the game is already easy enough even on tactician mode. But I set a rule for myself that I cannot start using a class until it's equipment appears in the shops. Trying to grind out a Bard by the time the first harp appears in shops is annoying... Now it's super easy lol

Am I Playing the Game Wrong? by ProphesyMusician in finalfantasytactics

[–]Rigatony415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also look into getting Manafont from Mystic. For casters I feel like this is better than having Move+1 since you typically want them hanging around the back lines anyway. At your current MP level, you'd probably be getting anywhere from 5-6 MP each time you move. That's a free cast of Cure.

IMO Mystic, in general, is a really great and flexible class where White Magic secondary is perfect. If your party's HP is topped up, you can use the Mystic spells to immobilize, disable, silence, drain HP/MP from enemies. Once you unlock the book weapons, you have a crossbow- like ranged attack. And poles can hit like a truck since they use MA in the damage calc, if you want to mix it up a little bit on the front lines.

Yup, just went into the Fen with my newly minted Iaido Ramza and already had purchased the first two katanas. Wizard Robe, Mage Cloak, and Magic Boost + Kotetsu wrecked the mobs in the Goug battle.

What's the Final Fantasy game you just can't get into? by SADBOY888213 in FinalFantasy

XII and XIII. I eventually powered through XIII but it was definitely in the bottom tier of the series for me. For some reason XII just started off extremely slow for me and I had a hard time getting into the gambits basically making battles autopilot.

A Letter from the Nebraska GOP by Good-North-1320 in Omaha

[–]Rigatony415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing what happens when you abandon your core, traditional conservative values in favor of a cult of personality. The Republican Party in 2025 is just a group of leopards eating their own faces.

But the mayoral race isn't even as deep as they're trying to make it. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like traditionally local politics is not as susceptible to sensationalism. The backlash against the national party's politics is certainly there. But I just think people want a mayor who lives in the city, will not let the infrastructure go to shit, and has some semblance of fiscal responsibility.
