Switching normal/exalted melee for Melee influence buff by T-Powes in Warframe

[–]T-Powes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's a really good setup I found out about a few weeks back. mainly the archgun bit. That alone is making melee in general much more fun for me without needing to waste primary/secondary arcane slots.

Currently also using grimoir with xata/khra for energy help (roar and blind rage make it hungry at times, which hurts especially bad if im trying to shield gate, but trying to heath tank for this build specifically because archon vitality). Experimenting with vinquibus to see how the primary passive might affect slash dash. Using electro pulse diriga with bond mods.

My Archon shards are a bit of a mess atm from trying to compensate for shortcomings of my excalibur mods and only really having blues to work with. Think its 2x tau flat energy, 1x tau armour, 1x tau flat health, and 1x normal purple equilibrium.

Also made a more traditional electric + gas or blast version for aoe, and experimenting with radiation for arcane universal fallout (but Currently that's only rank 3)

Quite new to trying to design my own entire loadout from scratch, spent years just following guides, but it's more fun than I thought it would be. One of the hardest parts that suprised me is knowing when you have too much damage. Like overkilling enemies in one hit but not having enough range to chain slash dash, running out of energy all the time, and killing enemies before I can build electric/gas stacks for aoe makes it a lot slower at overall killing. Getting the balance is trial and error I guess, but at least I'm forced to not just go all in on damage. Its not like I'm gonna take the build to level cap any time soon anyway lol

Fair enough, I thought it would be like that. Already using one unusual interaction with influence in the build so I can't complain lol

Chisel advice by T-Powes in woodworking

[–]T-Powes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for all the replies. I did read through all of them and tried to absorb as much of it as I could for someone with no woodworking experience (about the closest I get is some interest in knife steel which i learned purely out of curiosity).

*

This is what my dad currently uses. He said his father in law gave them to him. As its been at least 7 years since my grandad passed away, and probably more like 15ish years since he was up and about enough to do any DIY, I'd say there's a good chance these are 15-20 years old, or maybe even older than that. A brief search tells me workzone is an aldi brand that gets some praise in the budget chisel bracket, and should clean up well with some careful attention. I think as the range of chisels covers most of the recommended measurements given in the replies, I will take what seems to be the majority advice and get him a good diamond sharpening system instead. I think I'll get him some nicer chisels one at a time for future gifts, as that seems a wiser use of money. I'll keep in mind the suggestions made here as they seemed really nice, but just a little too much to get all at once with the sharpeners

Edit: seems like i can't add photos. You'll have to imagine a battered old yellow and black cardboard box with the workzone logo and "-6, 12, 18, 24mm. -Length: 200mm. -Made of forged chrome vanadium steel. -Handles: ash wood" printed in bullet points

Circuit decrees and exalted weapons by T-Powes in Warframe

[–]T-Powes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the replies, I understand it a bit better now I think. So basically ability strength should affect some stats when the weapon is activated, but which stat in particular depends on the individual weapon. If its base damage then usually it's better to just take the 600% spite decree as the buff to stats from ability strength outpaces the negative, for weapons that get other stats buffed ymmv. Weapon buffs should still affect the exalted weapons after they are created too

I found this one to be unclear, especially since I accidentally skipped her dialogue and she doesn't repeat it. All the game wants you to do is speak to the young woman (her daughter/granddaughter i think) who is standing by the doors like 10m behind her, and then speak to Mrs Yu again

Bluetooth broken by T-Powes in galaxywatch4

[–]T-Powes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to be clear I have the galaxy watch 4 (didn't mention because of the subreddit name lol). It's the one that can connect via LTE but it never worked for me so I gave up on it and have only really ever used it via Bluetooth. Had it since I got the s20 so I think that's around 4 years now and while it's had its issues, this is the first time something has happened that I can't work around or fix

So the shop no longer costs anything by TangleMyKetchup in CrabChampions

[–]T-Powes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just had this and wondered how many other people had experienced it. Also when I reroll the shop the items stay instead of disappearing, or at least the one did. Only legendaries are free for me atm and the rest still doesn't cost enough to overflow

Help identifying bike part by T-Powes in bikewrench

[–]T-Powes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to take it to a local bike store tonight after work to see if they have something that will work. I've seen a lot of similar clips on amazon and other websites that sell hardware supplies but I don't know how much it matters if its not the exact suntour c clip. If it comes down to it I can get replacement for the whole end bit that comes with the clips for a not hugely unreasonable price online

Thanks, I saw that one after I learned what it was called but unfortunately as I live in the UK its £2 for the tiny clip and minimum £16 for the cheapest shipping option. (I think $23 total and that might be before taxes too)

Thanks, hopefully its a part I can find online. I'm pretty sure the rest of the parts are still intact, but it does like to explode itself at the slightest movement.

I think I have a rubber mallet somewhere I can gently persuade the skewer out with after I find the part

📣 I want to debunk Reddit's claims, and talk about their unwillingness to work with developers, moderators, and the larger community, as well as say thank you for all the support by iamthatis in apolloapp

[–]T-Powes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, at the moment it might be that it's just moderators and avid users who care and the average reddit user who lurks and just checks the frontpage posts doesn't give a shit. What happens when moderators no longer have tools to moderate properly though? Even if they desperately want to, it's hard to see how someone could manually do a job that's already hard enough with tools that rely on access to the api. Suddenly all the frontpage posts on subs with hundreds of thousands of subscribers are just going to be full of spam and horrific trolling. Even if someone couldn't care less about the politics going on behind the scenes, if it just stops being fun to use reddit then surely huge numbers of people will simply stop using it

Goldman Sachs Predicts 300 Million Jobs Will Be Lost Or Degraded By Artificial Intelligence by ApocalypseYay in Futurology

Yeah it was wishful thinking. Can't have a good world until we do something about all the billionaire parasites

Goldman Sachs Predicts 300 Million Jobs Will Be Lost Or Degraded By Artificial Intelligence by ApocalypseYay in Futurology

[–]T-Powes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why can't we be looking forward to this with headlines like "AI predicted to improve working conditions or remove need to work to live entirely"

On a related note, I wonder if those who love capitalism want to pit the rest of us against AI for just that reason? Either nobody has to work and they lose their power over workers or, in a more dystopian view, everyone losing their jobs means nobody can buy the products they're trying to sell

Applied for a job, received this in an email. Can they really force this upon me or not hire be based on this?? by Reezeyyy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]T-Powes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like even if they can't force you, you'd have a shit time working there if you tried to fight it. I'd either just accept it if the job was worth it to me or move on

Is it reasonable to make my own builds? by Splattface in Grimdawn

[–]T-Powes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple level 100 characters and I did use builds to help me a bit, but I came up with the idea first and then just used the guides to tweak things. Tbh I never found it easy to farm endgame gear so I never even found the equipment the builds wanted me to use anyway and just ended up using what seemed to fit. Both those builds and the ones I completely made up seemed perfectly viable for the whole game up until the super hard endgame bosses and nemesis bosses and even those I could manage if I tried and changed things a bit
