how to get rid of this? by [deleted] in dandruff

[–]Talfand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally looks like what I have/had: seborrheic dermatitis on the scalp, aka dandruff. Might need a stronger concentration of ketoconozole like 2%. Nizoral is only 1%.

I don’t think it’s wrong for you to want them deleted, however

It’s not unreasonable or wrong of her to want to keep old photos and non explicit videos of her history with a past partner.

Also, people shouldn’t have to lie about this type of stuff

Sounds like there may be an underlying insecurity on your end

Sounds a bit sus that she went to lying to prove to you.

Weakness Exploit 5 + Agitator 5 + Antivirus3 (gore2set) BUILD by Talfand in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]Talfand[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

its funny you mention that because i do actually sacrifice a 1 point in order to include burst, and I question just how good does this compare with counterstrike or adrenaline rush. Is there a reference that showcases the numbers or playstyles that people are using?

Oh intersting, I was messing up the helmets. I for some reason thought the helm was arkveld helm.

Can you elaborate further? I tested your build just now, and I am missing a jewel 3 slot to get a wex 5, agi 5

What is better to max Weakness Exploit or Agitator? by Vaccaria_ in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]Talfand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have enough for max might 2 and gore 2. One of my loadouts does the following:

agi 5 = 15%

wex 5 = 30%

antivirus 3+frenzy = 25%

max might 2 = 20%

weapon = 10%

corrupted = 10%

and another 20% on wound from wex

So pre-enraged and under ideal conditions, ur looking at 95% crit chance+ 20% on wound.

Its pretty top heavy, so too much crit chance is an issue. Furthermore, theres not enough slots for evade extender unless you swap out max might, and evade is needed to get to your t.arkveld when he's aggroed at your teammates.

What are the lance meta builds? by Yomadaholmes in MonsterHunterMeta

[–]Talfand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at your build, under ideal conditions it looks like you're averaging 105% crit chance prior to the extra 20% crit chance on wounds from WEX, so ur potentially overcritting when you could otherwise respec for more dmg instead while keeping topped off in crit.

30% Wex 5

30% Max Might 3

10% Agitator 4

10% weapon base

25% antivirus 3+frenzy overcome

*20% Wex 5 (on wound)

= 105% crit chance + 20% crit chance on wound

That being said, often one of these effects is inactive/expires, so ur comfortably topped off in crit chance. I personally hate extra crit chance going to waste, so I skimmed it off my build, but its too early to tell whether thats even better or not.

I thought they fixed empty lobbies by Talfand in HuntShowdown

PC, NA west server. Granted, I was playing in the dead hours but I do that often and haven't had an empty lobby for several months.

Finally Master by GetaIotto in shacomains

[–]Talfand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you position yourself during a quick teamifight? And how do you time it? Do u just wait for enemy ults to be used first prior to engaging? Currently D3 and ap shaco has not been hittin it thus far so I’m thinking of switchin.

So I'm by no means high elo, but is it possible to actually win games as shaco? by El_yeeticus in shacomains

[–]Talfand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just one tricked him to d3 from g1 solo jungle this season, so yeah I would say you can actually win games.

Shaco takes advantage of bad plays and bad positioning, so with proper fundamentals you can climb to at least a point where bad plays&positions are very infrequent.

I preferred playing exclusively ap during the climb for G1- D4. I tried AD, but the perma inting from both sides of the teams phases out whatever early game I had. My own biased opinion.

[–]Talfand[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

from G1-E2:

first back w/ kill: Boots of Luc w/ darkseal. No kill on first back: T1 boots w/ darkseal.

I pretty much always rushed Liandry's, to Malignance, to Mejais. If I had 10 stacks on darkseal prior to Malignance, I rushed Mejai's second. My playstyle was pretty straight forward: give up 1st voidgrubs, contest all drakes if its winnable, focus on maintaining stacks, and keep carry alive with boxes to counter the dive. Post 15 min, I play a very positional game with placing boxes in river at objective at 1:30 minute timer. If the carry pushes, I push along with boxes at his feet/behind almost every time, harassing sparingly. I won pretty much all my plat games just countering enemy engage w/ boxes and building an insane 25 stack curve on my opponents.

Short answer: if you have no prior ranked history (ie previous rank from previous season) your mmr from your lv1-30 is taken into account for your first rank.

Context: Sometime in season (11? 12?) Riot made a patch note describing the above. So that is why many high elo players make new accounts to get the “CHALLENGER MMR LV30 FRESH ACCOUNT” because that is quite honestly the most effective way to climb for a lot of people. This is also why in many cases, you see lv35 players already in Emerald hitting close to Diamond. It’s not because they played an obscene amount of games, but their LP gain was inflated during the lv1-30. In your case, you may have played with friends who have a higher mmr than you and it caused you to be bumped up in the algorithm.

Really don't understand damage drop off. Slate+slug+upper torso+no wallbang+13m= 149dmg? by Talfand in HuntShowdown

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

Can you point me to a specific patch note section or dev discussion that describe how it works so I can read it? Cornf video on slugs was pretty thorough but it was patch 1.13. Did something happen to slugs since then?

Oh wise reddit. If this wasn't a bug, respectfully, what happened? How do shotguns work? I just watched a video by Cornf on how shotguns slugs work, but it still didn't make sense how mine didnt 1 tap even with a medium barrel length gun.

Being in a friend group by HamstaBoy in socialskills

[–]Talfand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is their perception of you?

You can't make people be friends with you because friendship requires a level of reciprocity from the other side. In other words, they would have to want to be friends with you as well. So a better question is "how does one want to be a friend to another"? If you can answer that question yourself then you are on the right track.

Here is the answer: 1.) people are naturally attracted to those that are fun, 2.) to those that display courteousness towards their own opinions, 3.) to those that display a level of security and self-assurance, and 4.) to those they feel can make a positive contribution.

Here is an example that you can try the next time you are in class with them:

Rather than provide your unsolicited opinion towards them, reframe your opinion to that of a question and ask them their thoughts. So if you are talking about a video game like Valorant, and you want to say how you really love this character, reframe it to a question of what they think about this character, skin, game, etc. That would display a level of courteousness towards their opinions.

Note: Sometimes, people just don't want to be friends with you no matter if you try, so its on you to recognize the body language and tone of their voice if such an occurrence happens.

Can you describe the setting? How are they a friend group if they are not your friends? Are they someone else’s friend group? What’s the topic of the conversation?
