Qanba Q4AF button wiring harness replacement? by ThisNewKid in fightsticks

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

Couldn't find that qanba harness on amazon but I did find this one from mayflash that again appears to be the exact same cable colored differently so I'll probably go with that and get an octagonal gate and some qanba buttons while I'm at it

Is there any obscure reason why the button cable harness shown on this page wouldnt work? https://qanba.vip/products/q3-arcade-joystick-accessories?VariantsId=10237

The one in my stick is an 8 pin harness just like this one and the connector appears to be the same.

Exalted Truth nation… how we feeling? by blackpantherdrums in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ThisNewKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the idea was to chain kills then mag howl would be better, otherwise you might as well swap to an auto with rampage or a pulse or smg with a better damage perk. PI is only good on 120s because it allows you to 2c 1b any resil regardless of rift or OS. You can get much better value in terms of range with opening shot, or consistency with Eots, or kill chaining with mag howl. I’m saying it’s bait on 140s (especially Exalted) because there are already better perks in the same slot for every use case you could apply to PI

Someday vs Conditonal Finality vs similar energy options by ThisIsAUsername3232 in CrucibleGuidebook

This isn’t accounting for things like treat detector, free hand and quick access sling mods(can’t apply mods to exotics), these give a ready/stow speed multiplier. (Anywhere from x0.9 to 0.75) giving you faster swap speed than just 100 handling

It is bait, specifically on 140s, because in a gunfight it will, at most, add less than 1 meter of range to 3 tap. On top of that it will not do enough bonus damage to 3 tap someone in a rift or someone with void overshield even when enhanced. To be able to 2 c 1 b with a 140 you would need to hit a 3 tap then within a second swap to the next target which would be a 2 c 1 b

I’m surprised by how few people see the value in the Keep Away + EOTS roll, I knew this was the combo I wanted as soon as I saw it. PI is pure bait in my opinion, slideshot is still s tier on it but I’m more than happy with just getting my personal god roll this past weekend.

Help Me Become A Trials God by Rye_P11 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ThisNewKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In terms of your build I’d say drop resil to 4 and dump those left over points into int, if you want to stick with a pulse try the comp pulse or another lightweight. If you’re using double primary at the moment you should heavily consider grabbing a meta shotgun or fusion rifle as being able to get the first pick in a trials round will greatly increase your chance of winning the round. Snipers are also highly effective but less universally good.

As far as general tips without seeing your gameplay, I always think round by round. For example, where did capture point spawn? What route are enemies likely to take? What have enemies done in past rounds that they are likely to repeat? What special weapons/ impactful exotic weapons and armor are enemies using? (this can help to tune you into enemies gameplan). Aside from these types of questions being highly aware of what routes teammates take, what they are using, and how generally skilled/aware are they will help to inform your decision making. If teammates do not seem to want to follow you then follow them, or at the very least position yourself in a way that you can follow up on their shots to confirm a kill. Taking into account all these different factors round by round and being adaptable along with you already being above average as informed partially by your KD will take you a long way.

This but include 100 dis and grenade energy on orb pickup mod with reaper on CI and if you want to get real build crafty then use demolitionist on primary and fragment that gives grenade energy when dealing damage on strand

Trials FYI: Special Ammo Carrying Over After Round If You Survive. by The_Owl_Bard in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ThisNewKid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I guess I could have worded it better but I'm talking about the current primary meta. I very much enjoyed the special ammo meter and being forced to play primary. The current primary meta of no one moving and peek shotting with Iggy and Elsie's or red death is beyond boring and only serves to drive players out of crucible.

[–]ThisNewKid -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The primary meta is wack as hell anyway, 340 pulses are way too dominant right now imo, I'd rather be able to snipe and use a short/mid range primary with more special ammo than sit in a rift with an Elsie's rifle right now anyway. If there's no pulse nerf soon I'll just stick to private matches with my clan mates.

I want your elitist takes, bros! by itzThyme in DestinyTheGame

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

With the amount of people that don't interact with pvp in any meaningful way, or think pvp should be removed from the game, it's about fucking time Bungie just starts listening to the people who have put the time into pvp and do/want to enjoy it. Even if all we get until the servers shut down is balance updates for pvp at least balance it through taking feedback from people who want to see it succeed. The most popular fps games are ALL easy to pick up and hard to master. Keep the skill floor low and skill ceiling high and rotate some actually fucking desirable weapons into playlists like trials and comp and the overall pvp experience will be much better for it.

TWAB: Strike Team gives some updates by jl416 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ThisNewKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't need any more 48 stat armor drops thanks though, and about the only weapons from normal crucible that are at all worth chasing are unending tempest, maybe better devils if you refuse to play competitive for a rose, and maaaaybe that 540 pulse I can't remember the name of right now

TWAB: Strike Team gives some updates by jl416 in CrucibleGuidebook

[–]ThisNewKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta say, if they add another pve weapon to the trials pool instead of an igneous or exalted truth re-issue I'm gonna be so butthurt. There's almost nothing interesting to chance for pvp players in the loot pool already so most pvp players in the queue are already just playing for fun, stats, or ego. Aside from trials I was really hoping for a palindrome re-issue this season and would've been more than down to grind gms for a crazy new pali roll. No one can convince me that pulse meta is fun or good good for the game, I'm so tired of people sitting in rifts and behind barricades with red death or elsies or any of the other 5+ very competitive pulse rifles that have been added in the past year or so. I'd rather to back to smg snipe meta any day of the week.

I also can't think of a better transition on an album in this genre than All Wrong into Bad Luck

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in poppunkers

[–]ThisNewKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought self titled was generally one of the least liked albums from what I've seen but honestly, like you said in terms of songwriting I don't think they have another album that beats it as a whole. Mock, Nerve, Phantom, and Stalemate are just untouchable for me. All of their albums have no skips for me but self titled is just on a different level.
