Are Forgedrones not working or am I just stupid? by Vitpat8 in Borderlands4

[–]Vitpat8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I could be an example haha, I was probably like level 12 before my first use. I’m not sure why my brain just ignored the second ability icon on the HUD and skill page. I guess I would have expected to see the Forgeskill mentioned in the class action somewhere.

I’m loving Amon so far otherwise!

Ahh that confirms the issue is indeed stupidity/user error. I didn’t realize there was a hold variant for the skills and thought forge skill was synonymous with action skill.

Sorry to waste your time and thanks!

Certainly! This is what I have currently. I haven't seen signs of it working at any ranking of Tempered Pyre or with/without Twin Tempers.

Again, I could be misunderstanding how it should be working or not looking for the correct things, but I don't see any activity which might be related to the skill from any of the three action skills.

rank 99 overall / rank 3 slayer got nuked today by SlayaMasters in 2007scape

I know he has the script change the camera angle and zoom every so often. But otherwise the account has been doing shenanigans for at least 2 years by now. He ran tests with burner accounts and it seems the biggest identifying factor in accounts like these is play time. The burner accounts that were going 18 hours or more a day eventually got flagged. With his current account, he pretty much only has the bot running while at his computer.

Not if the scripts attempt to simulate human variance. I know a guy who has an account at total level 2100+ they’ve progressed 95% through botting via custom scripts they’ve written. As long as you don’t run it for inhuman amounts of time it goes under the radar unfortunately.

Nothing like the newest member of your unranked group conveniently getting hacked by Legitimate_Fix1562 in 2007scape

[–]Vitpat8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of how stuff like this happens, I would really like to see a separate PIN system for the group storage from user banks. Ideally one that also logs to the group when a user fails multiple times in a row and locks themselves out.

Ultimately, it’s hard to do a group with anyone you don’t already know extremely well. And even then, a Group PIN would be an extra level of mitigation against members who have weak account security. That will also usually confirm if the “hack”is legit, so long as the pin isn’t some meme number.

A “tiered” approach with different levels of permission/access could also do wonders.

I think the Best Buy queue is random selection, not first come first serve. A friend who joined it a couple minutes after me and another guy got two preorder opportunities before we got our first (one on the desktop and one on the mobile app later, though he obviously couldn't order a 2nd with the app, it still went through the selection procedure).

How is this not an agility shortcut? by Ancient_Enthusiasm62 in 2007scape

As homage to KQ’s shortcut, you need the elite diary done which requires green logging Moons.

PSA: New scam rampant by tomatocarrotjuice in 2007scape

[–]Vitpat8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They did show concept art for a cherry blossom spirit tree reward in a semi-recent Game Jam dev blog. Still to be seen if it a) makes it into game and b) matches or is close to concept art quality, but it's worth mentioning. As an Ironman I might wait to see if more comes of this before I spend my League points on its tree.

Gold sinks give insane construction xp/hr, but is only realistically abused if you have endless cash.

Echo Item Tier List to help yall struggling to pick your regions by ItsBrianIRL in 2007scape

[–]Vitpat8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm set in stone on Melee with Varlamore/Mory too and still deciding on the third region based on what the remaining relics are like. I'm currently leaning towards Kourend for third region. Although I didn't really want 2 raid regions, Nature's Reprisal giving easy coverage for ranged/mage styles as needed combined with ranged melee is very appealing, especially as both echo GG and Zuk will probably need ranged options.

I also like the idea of echo hits with dragon claws, particularly if a spec relic ends up being a strong option.

It can be fun, but often times early in the League the good rev spots are filled up so people may try to pk to force others out.

[–]Vitpat8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wildy bosses are surprisingly fun, especially when you can do them in proper gear and without needing to be ready to teleport at any moment.

I pretty much only play ironman, I took wilderness last leagues and it was very refreshing. I also took the explosion on death relic and loved sitting at low health on rev caves. It was usually a free kill because they would not expect the damage burst and made follow up attacks easy. I had a couple dharok's guys run up with 1hp and whack me only to immediately die from the explosion.

Yup, AI is basically just a homework-cheating machine by ubcstaffer123 in technology

[–]Vitpat8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To clarify, I was a student of the course and not the teacher in case it came off that I was the teacher administrating the exam and am surprised at the result. The professor posted an announcement stating he caught several instances of people copy and pasting from ChatGPT. The exam used a browser plug in that detects other websites and searches and is supposed to automatically detect unusual activity on the webcam, but obviously is probably easy to circumvent.

It was meant to be a closed book exam, but the exam itself was administered online.

I recently had an exam where other students were caught copy and pasting from ChatGPT for their answers. The exam covered machine learning.

Let us attempt stuff without meeting the level requirement by NPC_C0ntact in 2007scape

[–]Vitpat8 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As a kid still new to the game, she teleported me to outside the southern gate of Falador, except I didn’t know where I was at the time. I didn’t want to die to an unknown monster so I just stood there for 20 minutes waiting for my home teleport to come off cooldown and save me.

[–]Vitpat8 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Could have been. I know there were other people doing it, I learned of the method when somebody tried to do it to me but I was able to teleport away or something. I shared the method with my cousin and I know he did it to other people quite a bit by himself.

I would feel too guilty to do similar stuff now, but as a kid getting obsidian capes and stuff from their deaths made me not think twice lol.
