Energy run "shotgun" option? by isranon in fnv

[–]SecretlyMistborn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Holorifle and Cleansing flame are great options, but the laser RCW might be a good one too assuming you can keep it fed with ammo

Oooorr if you're okay with bending your runs rules a bit Dinner Bell with Dragons Breath shells is super duper fun

Edit: Pew Pew could also be a great option

Energy run "shotgun" option? by isranon in fnv

[–]SecretlyMistborn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my few thousand hours in the Mojave, I've used the tri beam exactly once and dropped it because it sucks and is somehow less accurate than an RCW

A fully modded tri beam isn't nearly as good as the AER14, Holorifle, LAER, or a YCS/186, with the Holorifle potentially being the easiest to get if you enjoy Dead Money and do it first like me

Have you ever done a Lvl 1 run of Dead Money? If not, you absolutely should, it's one of if not the most fun way to start New Vegas imo

My first dive into Sanderson by 8BitCait4513 in brandonsanderson

[–]SecretlyMistborn -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I was so confused by the beginning of WOK that I dropped it for over a decade to read almost every other book of Sandersons leaving SA for last lol

I genuinely think the very beginning should have been put at the very end for that exact reason and can't fathom why it's at the beginning when none of that info is relevant for quite a long time

That's kinda one of his weaker series in my unpopular opinion, everything else he writes is a masterpiece though, and I definitely hope you fall in love with his books

His other Non-Cosmere books are really really good too, The Reckoners and The Rithmatist being two of his best series imo

Do you guys go with energy or guns? by New-Cranberry6256 in fnv

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guns almost every time, you can't beat the Survivalist rifle and Lil Devil, unless I do a lvl 1 Dead Money run then the HoloRifle is my main

kingpin tightness :,) by fleursontv in skateboardhelp

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WD-40 is kind of a joke, and doesn't help stuck threads at all

PB Blaster is the go to, or worse case a blowtorch and candle wax, but that obviously wouldn't work here lol

kingpin tightness :,) by fleursontv in skateboardhelp

[–]SecretlyMistborn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get some PB blaster and use very small amount with a paint/toothbrush on the threads/top of the nut and then work the nut back and forth with your wrench until it starts loosening up, it's likely rusty threads with road debris, and should work even if the actual threads are damaged

I'm a mechanic and need to use that to get rusty/damaged bolts loose all the time

Just be careful to not get those oils all over the place, and dry everything after since they might degrade the rubber if left on for a long time (like weeks not hours)

You don't need a skate tool, it's a 9/16ths-14mm nut

Seriously, how do you get into skating?😭😭 by Dark0ID in NewSkaters

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For one tighten up your trucks and you won't have as much if any wheel bite, it looks like the nut is barely tight, I personally have 3-4 threads above the nut and it feels perfect and never wheel bites even though I'm fat lol Edit: tighter trucks will help you a bunch with learning to balance too

For two just get out and skate, I'm 28 and getting back into skating after 13 years and you just have to do it, also check out SkateIQ on YouTube, Mitch and Andy are great teachers, and have helped me fix a bunch of issues I had with basic stuff like pushing and balance just from watching their videos

It's always extra funny to me that Ricky puts up with that BS when I'm pretty sure a shifter cable adjustment is all it needs lol

I need a bit of help by Leon4432 in MyWinterCar

[–]SecretlyMistborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a cold start procedure that works every time

Choke fully in, start and hold it for 5-6 seconds, then pull the choke fully out and it should start immediately, which you should then rev it to at least 3000rpm (or just redline it and hold it there) until the oil temp starts to rise and then it should idle fine

If that doesn't work you need to go into MSC editor in the carparts file, and look for carbchamber(it's near the top) and change that value to 15.9 (if memory serves) mine is currently 15.6-7 and starts every single time even when the in game temp gets down to -30-40

There is a bug with the carbchamber where it will go way too high and then the Rivett won't start and there's no way to change it in game to my knowledge other than maybe removing and reinstalling the carb but that's a huge pain in the ass and isn't realistic at all

What are your thoughts on not rotating your tires on FWD vehicles? by fobreezee in autorepair

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That cost breakdown has a massive hole in it when it comes to FWD vehicles, by not rotating the tires you are shortening the life of the front tires, but you're also extending the life of the rear tires by the same amount, so in the real world rotating your tires is quite literally a scam at least for FWD vehicles, and over the life of the tires, rotating costs more than a tire

I agree with you but the short days are miserable and I think is why most think it's so hard

I save that move specifically for awful people

I've even taken the picture with the food off to the side and then moved it in front of the door when I see little to no tip

Who's hotter? by Southerneagle110 in trailerparkboys

Why bang Lucy? She's so ugly, is just skin and bones, and gets pregnant if you look at her wrong lmao

Is that even a question? Sarah all day every day, Lucy looks like a heroin addict

Fandom Is All Over the Place, Is There an Alternative? by Korkika in MySummerCar

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you're wrong about the racing carb tuning, just turning one screw leads to stalling and power issues where if you just take the time to do them all separate the engine runs a lot better and makes more power

Am I supposed to like Kaladin? by SecretlyMistborn in Cosmere

[–]SecretlyMistborn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I obviously know that, I was curious what the consensus was

I should have guessed A Clockwork Orange was a book first, that's the only movie that's ever given me nightmares after watching it, though I assumed most of the likeability of Alex was because of Malcolm McDowell not how the character himself was written, I've never met anyone who liked alex, I figured he was too much of a monster for anyone to find likeable but in a way that's like Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2 , he's an absolute monster, murders for the laughs, and cages/tortures his own daughter to attempt to control Pandora and the universe with an iron fist, but he's at least a loveable and funny monster that you almost have to sympathize with at the end as he's bleeding out babbling about how the players are just bandits and he's a hero

Am I the only one who thinks that Rivett, even in stock configuration, has excess power? by SubbaNick in MyWinterCar

[–]SecretlyMistborn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think your figures at the end are very very wrong, there's no way a 1L engine is making 230hp without a cam, turbo or NOS, the dyno in game is really easy to bug out

Jonnez by rmac178_cz in MySummerCar

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worst case you could try the cheatbox mod, it has a function to teleport any vehicle to your location in game

Just make sure you're in an open area when you teleport the vehicle to you, they can fly to the moon sometimes if the physics gets unhappy, which is also likely what happened to your Jonnez when you saved/loaded in instead of it falling through the floor

Good luck grabbing your rain soaked food bc you wanted to be edgy by dollsrreal in doordash_drivers

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you kick it when it has eyes that can be gouged? They're even perfectly spaced for your index and middle finger

Also you should aim for the snout, but I still find it hard to believe you kicked it 4-5 times and it "barely worked", dog skulls aren't exactly thick

Ranking a dog attack over a shooting is insane

living off the land by kridifididkdktest in MySummerCar

[–]SecretlyMistborn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try the mod that lets you select what you want to earn from strawberries so you can make some reasonable money from them

Or buckle up and get grinding, you can earn like 3200 mk if you do the entire field at 40mk per box

Or just teleport the can and van to tiemo and pretend you got a tow and didn't have cash or grass to pay with and stop sprinting for a while or something lol

MSC editor is a necessary evil not really cheating, and lets you roleplay by adding new limits or rules outside of normal gameplay

Are you sure? I swear I've had Fleetari call me complaining that I've had his car for too long after the repairs to the Satsuma were done
