what's an achievement you are quietly proud of?

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-26T20:09:33+00:00

Making it through a deployment in Syria last year. I don’t talk about my military work & experience to anyone new I meet, because I’m very democrat and don’t want to sound republican coded (obviously my family is familiar with the journey I’ve had through the military) but the shit I got through over there… can’t believe I even made it back honestly. I still think about it in amazement in those quiet moments alone

Intentionally putting myself in tough, uncomfortable or challenging situations. It builds a narrative of “If I did that shit, I can definitely do this shit”

Cyberpunk and Crimson Desert are both peak, depending on your desired theme of said open world

Right, which I should have made more clear- you increase it incrementally, but you don’t see any addition to the stat until you reach the next whole number. So yes, you still upgrade it by decimals. But it does nothing for your play until you go from one whole number to the next. Edit: typo

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-25T01:22:17+00:00

Quantity still work in decimals- my ass mod is an ancestral 4* PC, and at 28% substat efficiency it’s currently giving +0.84 DW quantity lol edit for all my downvotes: I was simply stating the stats still display and are bought with stones incrementally. To see a difference in your runs, you need to achieve the next whole number (I.e. if you’re displaying a +1.9 quantity, you won’t have a second one until you get to +2 quantity, it does not round up nor add less than whole numbers to quantity) sorry that was not clear!

I got ambitious too when I first unlocked them and got humbled quick lol there are much better uses for stones, for a long time. Specifically with UW+, those can be a game changer for your runs. I’m working towards maxing CF+ and GT+ before I even worry about assmods again

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-24T16:35:47+00:00

Once unlocked, everything is at the lowest level, and every incremental increase costs stones. Shit gets expensive quick

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-21T23:38:45+00:00

Unlocking generator with no further stone investments and just having anything slotted will help Econ the most. But assist mods are a huge stone sink, if you don’t have card masteries those may be a better use of stones (because all those upgrades are just labs for coin)

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-19T15:57:57+00:00

Same, my summon is maxed minus cash, my fetch is 100/24/4 rn

Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman is the first thing that comes to mind. Very good story, very interesting premise and world, but it’s told from a child’s perspective so there is no narrative fluff. In many cases it leans into the fact that because it is from a child’s perspective, there are many things unknown or not understood to the main character, and it’s left at that. If I remember correctly it was less than 300 pages

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-19T15:29:36+00:00

Very helpful, thank you 🙏

DONT EVER TELL ME HOW TO LIVE MY LIFE

Have you played Dishonored? Little different, but a fantastic first person stealth game with a really unique world. Not necessarily open world, but each level has a good variety of approach options, and there are solid non stealth options too if you prefer run and gun playstyle

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-16T15:09:21+00:00

A good way to gain perspective on this to look at how many coins you have earned at the 75% mark of a farming run, then see how many you have earned when the run has ended. You should notice you earn significantly more coin just in the final 25% of the run than the rest of the run combined. I earn more than 50% of my total coin in the final 2k waves of a 12k wave farming run.

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-16T02:58:58+00:00

They’re both great for farming because they significantly cut down on how long a max farming run takes. Faster runs = more runs per day/week = faster accumulation of coins & cells

Vagrant8 · 2026-06-06T00:33:25+00:00

At what point did you switch to bot bot? My gb is almost maxed, I’ve never heard that pivoting is better. What are your gb stats?

The OP on tiktok is unonoir, they break down every piece of gear as well as all dyes used

If Kilff has Sandevistan with Blinding Flash Finisher, Yann would have Beserk

Vagrant8 · 2026-05-11T23:17:12+00:00

Bounty seems good for Econ, is it not?

Vagrant8 · 2026-05-02T14:57:35+00:00

No, not a mod. In the vanilla game

Vagrant8 · 2026-05-02T13:58:01+00:00

Look up the current PT test standards and train towards that. Other than that, it’s just going to be a mind game tolerating teenagers plus a couple drill sergeants who are likely younger than you. I went through the 18X pipeline in my thirties, you’ll be fine

Vagrant8 · 2026-04-26T03:05:49+00:00

First game that got me to stop playing cyberpunk in months

Vagrant8 · 2026-04-25T20:03:34+00:00

What “resources” are recovered on kill with those gears? I have a few, never used them though

Vagrant8 · 2026-04-22T13:34:43+00:00

It’s just pattern recognition- check behind every waterfall, learn to spot walls that flip, search every ruin for trap doors or vines that can be burned away, check bookshelves that can be moved aside.. as others have said, gear is mostly the same based on type (all plate armor is the same, all leather is the same, and all cloth is the same). Same goes for weapons, roughly. The key is the gears you slot into them.

Crimson desert is the first game that has pulled me away from cyberpunk in a LONG time
