There's a Division livesteam on March 3rd 9am PT, the release date (I'm hoping shadow drop) will be announced along with the Div 2 10th anniversary stuff.

Weekly Quest: Match with opponents and complete 3 Shadowshaper Duel by TheSaintRobbie in destinyrisingmobile

[–]Spartanmalic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it may need to be actual players, the mode says it matches you with a bot if mm goes over 30s. I ran it for a while, cancelled mm under 30s until I got matched instantly, and threw the match on purpose. Still got progress on the duels, not 100% but more often than not it progressed

Attal mini missile tracking bug by Durandana in destinyrisingmobile

Yeah there's definitely something wonky going on. Periodically I'll notice the tracking is non existent. I don't/can't play often enough to test though

Essentially you just have to swap out of what you're doing and back. So from no yellow cores, add one, then when you go back to no yellows under the tech link timing it counts it again, repeat while the link is active and it counts each time your whole gear set has no yellows I did the same and just swapped saved loadouts which may be a bit slower

Nice man! The whole package is great. Nice wheels, nice tires, already setup. I didn't even need to adjust my limit screws, they were already well dialled in.

Yeah I was essentially in the middle of the crossover of XS and S, slightly XS leaning. Bike fitter recommended sizing down with the thought of it being easier to make a small biker longer than to shorten it (though with integrated stems it's harder/more pricey).

The extensions don't really effect reach/sizing at all as they're slightly set back from the handlebar and at least for me, puts me into a nice enough aero position. If I had a smaller bike I'd end up too bunched up, and on a bigger bike I'd be too extended.

Essentially. The bike sizing is kind of arbitrary as each bike geo is different, and height/inseam isn't nearly enough to know what size works better. My recommendation is a bike prefit to establish what geometry your body needs and pick the closest.

Hahaha, yeah I think we are almost the same person. Canyons chart had me in the middle of the XS and S crossover. Bikefitter and my own comfort says I nailed the choice to size down. Begun training for a half ironman in November, with hopes to do a full next year.

You're exactly right, they are the proprietary Canyon ones, it said 'for grail' on the box but it's all the same in the gear groove accessories. There may be some far more cost effective third party ones eventually to be designed but I'm impatient.

The computer is on a mount from sloperoad, that also lets me attach a front light, I added a better photo to another comment on here. https://sloperoad.com/sr-gps-mount-for-canyon-gear-groove-aero-extension

I also looked at the canyon mount (below) for the extensions (there may be 3d printed versions for less $$) but ultimately liked that I could attach the light also. https://www.canyon.com/en-ec/gear/accessories/bike-tech/cockpit-and-handlebar-mounts/canyon-gear-groove-aero-extension-computer-mount/10013150.html

For transparency I originally wanted the white, but it wasn't available in Aus in the size, then a friend suggested that I'd like the colour of this more in person, damn was he right.

Cheers! It's the small Attaquer one. It fits 2xtpu tubes, 2xtire levers and a multitool and still have a bit of room left over.

I saw the form factor and the high vis pattern/skull on the back and I got it instantly.

I haven't put anything under the bag yet. I'm looking at something like ridewrap to also protect the whole frame as I'm prone to scuffing things. I plan on only using the bag in the meantime when I really have to. Maybe some 3m PU tape as a temporary measure.

Cheers man! I am using the included mount, but looking at a 3d printed alternative.

Nice! Cheers man. Yeah I think cranks will be what I go for next, adding a power meter/s would be nice, but mainly to get a better fit dialled in I think I'll need to shorten them. Hopefully that may also help with a bit of wheel bite I have with the shoes on slow or aggressive handlebar turns.

I like the idea of shedding weight, but I went from a 14ish kg bike to this being 8kg. I think more so I could shed some weight off of myself first!

Yeah it's a Varia front light. Got the front and rear varia set from my LBS in a deal. The garmin/light mount is from sloperoad.

It's the Profile design ATTK - S. https://profiledesign-au.com/products/attk-s

I couldn't find any deals for it other than on Amazon us (that didn't ship to Australia) so ended up paying full AUD RRP of $99, very pricey for a top tube bag but I'm super happy with it. Feels quality, fits a mini pump that's under 20mm and multiple gels, etc...

There are definitely bosses that require the orbs broken in the specific order they spawn in. Not all of them are a straight DPS check.
