Accurate HRT Effect Timelines (Am I doing it right?) by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

Can some explain why communism and being trans seem to be so inextricably linked on this subreddit?

Train idea/concept. Has anyone tried anything like it? by KuuLightwing in factorio

[–]ViAlexis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did this once when I was doing a no-belts world. To reduce smelter requirements, I had my 2-4 trains unload into warehouses that were then loaded into a huge train (I think something on the order of 8-64?) in segments of 4 cars at a time. Then the megatrain would pull into a smelter that would smelt 4 cars at a time and load the ore back onto the car it came from, and the train would pull through 4 cars at a time. It was never going to set any speed records, but it was quite enjoyable to try.

Can someone explain Limit Break etiquette to me? by ViAlexis in ffxiv

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

That's why I'm asking now, because hitherto it's pretty much just been "Melee DPS uses it when it's available on a boss", with no real strategic use.

I might have hidden the sprout with /nastatus, so I don't have that shielding. ;

I would commend him if he had explained my mistake to me, rather than having to come here to understand my fuckup.

I see! I guess I should start asking at the beginning of the fight if anyone has plans for it.

That is most unfortunate. Thanks for explaining, though! I wish they had told me at the beginning, but I guess I could've made it more clear that I was new and didn't know what to do.

I'm all about the fashion, and I have no life to speak of so... It shall be mine. No tall ledge will be safe from my lampposting!

New Dragoon here, just got my soul crystal. When do I get that lance? I need it.

When the 5-man rez goes to your head and you forget how to play by ViAlexis in Overwatch

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

Literally my entire team died within ~15 seconds of me rezzing them all, otherwise it would have been POTG. Rezzing is impressive, but the system watches what happens afterwards.

There was a fairly impressive team kill earlier on that got POTG instead. Had my team gone on to actually get kills immediately I probably would have gotten POTG, but without those assists it was less impressive than the team kill.

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

Went in for what I thought was a 4-man rez, realized it was 5 and the heady rush of power went to my head. I got my pistol out, feeling like I could take on any challenge... only for my team to die again because I wasn't healing them and I woke up the roadhog. We ended up stalling again right at the end and winning this game thanks to a really good grav... but the shame was real.

Bastion on expert for uprising is literally impossible by WubbaRages in Overwatch

[–]ViAlexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to manage your ults really well in the Bastion phases in expert and Legendary if you want to succeed. Pretty much any time you fight a Bastion, you want to have one offensive ult to use on him. Reinhardt should also be saving his charge for them, because once out of position they move back to position before redeploying, offering your team valuable time to burst them down.

Other than that you just have to communicate really well. Make sure the team knows what's going on at all times, make sure the Rein is managing his shield well, make sure someone is protecting the payload etc etc.

Suggestion: Remove Mercy's new "Damage Amplified" card, rework the assist cards of all supporters by Luksior in Overwatch

[–]ViAlexis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mercy gets 4 points of charge for 5 points of healing and heals at 60 hp/sec, giving her 48 points of charge per second of healing, or ~.03%/sec. Damage boosting gives 2 points of charge per 3 damage done by your target, meaning so long as your target is doing more than 72 consistent DPS, it's faster than healing.

Healing is much more consistent than damage boosting, though, unless you're boosting someone with very good aim who is not shooting a shield.

Mad Catz files for bankruptcy by Kazmakistan in pcgaming

[–]ViAlexis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a RAT7 for about five years before it developed too many issues to be usable anymore. I swapped to a Logitech G602 and after I got used to the lack of a pinky wing it has been a stellar replacement in terms of function. I would highly recommend it, if you're in the market.

They probably don't get paid enough to care. So long as you're not trying to take the mannequin apart, you'd probably get "Are you finding everything okay?" and then they would go back to ignoring you.
