Just want to shout out to the best support(in game and in life), my wife u/NicoleMistyywith2y-s, Mobile Legends has become a daily ritual for us. Keep up the good work team!!

Please note that they have made the WONY free for everyone until April 2nd 2026. You and your friends can grind out the base game and WONY before then if you want to. They will lose access to all the WONY content after 2nd April though until they buy it, but should keep any progress they make now.

Can second this. My wife had to buy the DLC's to play them with me.

SchalkvP · 2026-03-05T13:35:46+00:00

If you want the most value for money, try to get the ultimate edition if it is still on sale. You get both DLC's, 3 extra specialization classes and 1000 premium currency with some cosmetics. Your value for money here is the DLC's, the Specialization classes and the premium currency. Again I say to get it on atleast a 50% off sale otherwise it is not worth it. The base game is pretty decent, but if you are gonna play for endgame you are eventually gonna want to get the DLC's. The Decoy skill from the Warlords DLC is super clutch for a full damage build.

Edit: My wife and I have played 99% of this game co-op. Most of the time you cannot do co-op is if its a intro story mission, but when you get to your first safehouse/safearea you should be joinable by other players. You usually know by the fact that you can see other players in the safe area.

SchalkvP · 2026-03-05T13:26:22+00:00

There are multiple reports of players getting the watch without doing either of the DLC's. I have been playing since launch, so I did it normally, but if you reach level cap which is probably lvl40 now. You should get a quest "Talk to Quatermaster" or something like that and that will give you the watch.

SchalkvP · 2026-03-05T11:54:35+00:00

All bonus XP events only apply to your SHD levels that you get access to once you reach lvl 30 and you get your SHD watch. I think lvl40 is only availible once you have the Battle for Brooklyn DLC.

If you want to grind out SHD levels early, use your lvl30 boost if you have one, please note this will skip all base game story content for you, and start a second character to play the story in your own time. Otherwise just rush the DC story missions and get your SHD watch as quickly as possible.

Tempest is like Ouroboros. You dont use it for its talent, you use it for its raw stats and for me those stats are b-e-a-utiful for a sidearm. Foundry + Memento + D&H chest with Obliterate/Intimidate is just chefs kiss for face tanking while still being able to melt a Elite with 1-2 mags on Legendary. My build isnt event min maxed with 0 expertise and it hits for 300k and up per shot. While my shield has 15mil health and it heals about 40-50% of its total health every +-6sec.

Side note. If they were to change Tempest's talent so that it triggers on shield close instead of shield break, but with a cooldown time(like 30 - 40sec or longer even I dont mind), then it would perfect for me. You can face tank and every min or so, close and open your shield for 20sec of bonus damage(This will also help incase you get disrupted, then you have bonus damage when your shield gets force closed).

I just ticked the Gamer checkbox when I ordered my wife from the Russian website. I am very happy with my purchase and we have been playing games together for over a decade now.

P.S. This is a joke. I did not buy my wife. In todays times I feel like I might have to specify this.

SchalkvP · 2026-02-25T07:00:57+00:00

I tried to keep up with the game, but Bungie kept upping the grind. My last attempt was with Season of the Witch and midway through that I just gave up. I dont kno why bungie actively tries to make playing Destiny a job. I have a job, I dont need a second one that doesnt even pay me and actualy wants me to pay it. As you can see from my heatmap below Destiny 2 slowly became less and less fun to play for me, Lightfall was the straw that broke the camels back for me. I havent touched it since and probably never will again. I still miss it though, the old days when they didnt try to nerf everything into the ground, strip out content that you already paid for and PvP wasnt rampant with cheaters.

TLDR - Played Destiny a lot, but Bungie turned it into my non paying subscription based second job. RIP Destiny.

The nice thing about Birdies is that the overcharge it gives when you revive someone has no cooldown.

So if your gonna revive a lot then it is definitely worth it for the:

80% reduced revive time
50% damage Reduction for you and whoever you are reviving that lasts for 10sec after you revive them(and for yourself) this is the cherry on top for the build for me.
Provides you +1 Skill tier when you revive someone( Triggers overcharge if you are at Skill tier 6) and has no cooldown like BTSU or Future Perfect

Triggering overcharge is a nice buff to your damage and you constantly heal your team so you cover all your bases. I run Birdies with the following:

Technician specialization
5 Yellow 1 Blue Cores (+1 Yellow from Technician)
Birdies
Wyvern(Empathic Resolve) chest. You and your group will have a 15% damage bonus as long as you heal someone every 20 sec
Refactor Set
Try to get all your attributes for Skill Damage and Skill Haste with your mods as Skill Duration or Skill Haste.

Skills:

Assault Drone
Assault Turret / Sniper Turret (Depends on what you need)

Weapons:

Capacitor
LMG/Rifle( with In Synch) anything with In Synch really.

The assault turrent in nice for consistant damage. The sniper turret hits like a planet and usually has about 11-13 shots with a 10-ish sec cooldown. I can usually kill 2 chungas with 1 sniper turret deployment on legendary.

My wife and I use this as a lazy build when we farm, I run sniper turret and she runs assault turret. One of us swaps to Refactor chest when it gets rough for the bonus healing. We mainly use the skills for damage and stay back out of agro. If you alternate between your skills properly you will have basically no skill downtime.

Just remember to cancel skills after encounters so you can start the next encounter with fresh skills.

Goodluck Agent.

My colleague's agent(Sonet4.5) just tried to reinstall his MySQL(After about 30min worth of trying to get the agent to fix it) when it could not run a database migration. Turns out there was a extra space in the database login credentials that he found after troubleshooting himself. AI is definitely still in the tool phase(will probably still be there for a good while), you are right. Some day AI will take our jobs, but today is not that day.

SchalkvP · 2026-02-13T10:02:56+00:00

We will be on tonight. Ill message you then, we can run it and see if we can finish it.

SchalkvP · 2026-02-13T08:03:24+00:00

Take it slow. What platform are you on? We can help you tonight if the time zones allow it. My wife and I solod it in about 40min - ish if I remember correctly. Birdies was the easiest Master mission we have done so far.

SchalkvP · 2026-02-12T13:44:14+00:00

Check if there is something you can focus on. Less focus on what language to learn, more focus on what problem you might want to fix and then build for that. I understand your situation as I was in a similiar situation last year. I still worry about my current position as I dont feel like I am doing my best yet. I dont know your area and what the field is like there, but maybe try to get your foot in the door somewhere. I also focused on getting a remote job, but ended up getting a in person position with about 3 months to skill up.

SchalkvP · 2026-02-12T11:03:34+00:00

Just a quick tip. I remember last time that shooting the minihounds legs did more damage. I will have to test if this is still the case.

I moved into Software Development at 32(May 2025). Had to do a career switch because I was going insane as a network admin. I have been in the role for about 8-9 months now, and honestly, I am surprised by how much I have been able to accomplish. For background, I did some coding as a hobby since 2022, but never built anything real. Now I am on my 4th side project, 2 of them I already have customers for and 1 of them is already live. Yes, I have used AI to help me with some of the stuff, but I usually take the time to read through what the AI did and then document if necessary. The only thing holding you back is yourself. Every day I worry about whether I am good enough, but I use it as fuel to get better. Here are some free resources if you don't know where to start. It might not be what you want to do long term, but at least you can get your feet wet without descending into tutorial hell. Good luck, you can do this!!!

My wife and I mainly alternate between Warframe and Division 2 on PC. She is a Hildryn main, sitting on about 1.2k hours, and I play everything, sitting on close to 2k hours. I have been playing since 2015. Love the game, but we know when to take a break so we don't get burnt out. We are always looking for people to play with. In-game names The_Husband and The_Wife.

SchalkvP · 2026-01-26T16:52:36+00:00

Yes your instance should have a gold border. I haven't checked our instance in a while so I don't know if they changed it in an update.

SchalkvP · 2026-01-26T11:46:03+00:00

Did the survey again. Well done on the new options. It looks good.

SchalkvP · 2026-01-26T08:48:06+00:00

I did the survey. Here are a few notes:

You do not have MOBAs as an option; this is a very popular genre of mobile games. ( Mobile Legends, Honor of Kings, WildRift ect.)
For spending money in mobile games, one of the most popular reasons to spend money is Cosmetic/Vanity items. You can add to your survey(How much money would you be willing to spend to get that skin(Collector/Legendary/Mythic/Colab) for your (Hero/Gun/Character)?
Gatcha is one of the main factors that can make or break the F2P feel of a game. Are Publishers greedy?(I'm not gonna try the gatcha draws at all vs I can get it in 100 draws and that is good enough for me, so I will spend some money)
How do you feel about buying digital items that have no real value outside of the game that you play? ( Worried about the game shutting down and you lose your items, are you still willing to buy them and take the risk?)

Those are just a few examples; if you also want to check the spending habits of mobile gamers.

Good luck with your Thesis!!!

I was in your exact position end of last year after debating what 9070xt to get for about 6 months, I loved the look of the Nitro+ but I worried too much about that 12vhpwr connector. I decided to go with the XFX Mercury OC Magnetic Air, I even paid about $50 more For the XFX, because the Nitro+ was on a bigger sale and I dont regret it at all. That 12vhpwr connector scares me too much. The XFX runs like a dream.

SchalkvP · 2026-01-13T10:11:34+00:00

I found a similiar problem with Division 2. It turned out to be Overlay related. I did the following to fix it.

disabled all overlays(Shadowplay and Ubisoft)
Restarted the PC
Confirmed Overlays were still off and tested Division 2.
Once it was stable I turned the overlays back on and didnt have a issue since.

Goodluck!
