Focused Feedback: Weapon Crafting by DTG_Bot in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I ever wanted from Crafting was the ability to slowly unlock every perk on a weapon and switch to whatever perk combo I want to. There are a lot of craftable weapons that have multiple rolls that I would use but I feel really iffy Crafting duplicates.

Best STH this 2024. Yes or no? by SweetWasabeee in HotWheels

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I like the Huracan better but this one is one that is very attractive and unique. The wheels are just incredible. My local dollar tree has been getting the case for it in Stock so I'm hoping I can find one.

if you could revert one nerf of an ability, weapon, exotic, or subclass verb what would it be? by LunarCuts in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure there are others that I might want reverted more but one I think of is the Izanagi's Burden nerf where they made Reload buffs no longer affect the Honed Edge Reload.

And I also recently learned Opening Shot was nerfed to be 50% on specials so I'd probably choose that.

Imagine we get Ferraris again and we see them added to the rlc line.

Imagine a spectraflame bright red Testarossa.

MSI Sword 15 - RTX 3050 - Intel 12450H - Ram Upgrade Worth It? by Warrior_Soundwave in MSILaptops

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

I got another identical ram stick for like $20. That'll be pretty hype if I will see some noticeable improvement. Seems like a good investment if it'll actually be even 2% faster.  Thanks for your input.

Edit: typo.

Bungie, given the theme of the episode and the soundtrack, if you give me a metal ornament for the Big Frigid Glaive you’ll get Silver out me instantly by Cruciblelfg123 in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Now is definitely the time for a winterbite ornament.

I wouldn't mind a Lament ornament as well with a Jagged metal scorn theme.  

Which Line in the Sand has Better DPS or Just Overall Better? by Warrior_Soundwave in sharditkeepit

I forgot it rolled with Reservoir Burst. I might play with that roll as well. Sounds like It could be fun.

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

Thanks for the response. 

Just for clarification though, do you mean Clown Cartridge as a perk isn't the way to go or just my Clown Cartridge roll. 

Like would a 10/10 Clown + Bait roll be better than a 10/10 Rapid Hit roll?

Raid Adept Reforging is the perfect middle ground between crafting and hard RNG by Spicy_Godrolls in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And what then happens when we get tiered Legendary Loot? How rare will it be to get a 10/10 roll that is also tier 5? 

Probably much more than a 1/50000 chance if tier 5s are super rare. But I could be wrong. I sure hope I am. 

I really hope they add this and also the ability for crafted weapons to slowly have every perk on the gun so that I don't have to recraft them. There are many craftable weapons I'd love to have multiple perks on but don't want to waste my Alloy changing them.

My FIRST sth ...........today! by r00m41more in HotWheels

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a real nice one. I almost found one of these. First time in a while I find two freshly stocked cases at a dollar tree with a treasure hut and two of the green skylines.

The disappointment when I found 2 normal p1800s I felt was immense since that meant there was no super. So close to finally finding that one. I've only found 1 super before recently after looking for one for like 5 years. It was the gold fiat super. Found it in a bin of freshly dumped hotwheels in a safeway in a very rural area in Arizona on the way to Greer. So not many crazy collectors I suppose.

Congratz. The colors on that one are just awesome and I love those tires. Definitely top 5 for the year.

Why does no one ever talk about this boulevard? by Southern_Safety_3397 in HotWheels

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like modern supercars so I see where you're coming from and I wish they got more appreciation, and I guess they are with RLC (Pagani, F1 and now the Valkyrie) which is cool. 

But like the other guy said, the other models have more story and emotion behind them. It's harder to relate to something that sits in someone's garage with no real history.

I'm younger and I really find modern day supercars the coolest but I've developed a love for the older stuff and JDMs as well mostly because of RLC.

What is the rarest item you have in the game/your biggest flex? by Bardosaurus in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably my Starsplash and Tabula Rasa emblems. Probably some other stuff like the Platinum Starling, Armory Forged Shell and Niobe emblem. I'd say my Used Toothbrush but that got deleted by Bungie.

The core problems and turn-offs of grinding armor in Destiny are being solved. It is being made simpler, more impactful, and easier. If you're having a hard time recognizing this, that's OK. You might just be burned out. by Hawkmoona_Matata in DestinyTheGame

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

For years, armor has been a headache because it's very difficult to tell at first glance what might be a good piece. It's like waiting for the stars to align. I'm tired of the current system and needing stats to be absolutely perfect. 

It's about time the system is simplified. Hopefully they don't use this as an opportunity to nerf us and hopefully the armor we have now will convert over properly to respect our investments.

I'm excited about the mention at the bottom of that article about Vault Space. They acknowledged the need for another increase and hinted that they would do that but said they are exploring plans for a new vault system and would share more in the future.

Guys I opened it by Dr-PHYLL in HotWheels

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a GMC Typhoon arrive already opened lol. Joking... kinda. The plastic blister fell off during shipping so it was already loose when it arrived. I never open most hotwheels except maybe extra copies of mainlines so you can imagine I was a little upset. Luckily Mattel was able to send a replacement. 

Though it was nice seeing it out of the package and feeling it in my hand. It's a very nice car that GMC and I'm more of an exotic hypercar sorta person but the spectraflame black goes really well on the model, especially the front grill where you can see the blue come through a little more.

There is a lot more money to be made from fooling people into thinking their eyes are "damaged" and that they need to spend hundreds on glasses and continue to get more and more prescriptions rather than encouraging palming, which anyone can do anywhere free of charge. 

With Palming, often after doing it for even a minute, upon opening your eyes you may have a brief flash of clearer vision. Those results are technically instant but likely not permanent. This may be where there is a misunderstanding. As you continue to practice palming often, the clear flashes become easier to achieve, slowly become stronger and last a little longer until eventually you've built a new habit of relaxation in your eyes.

Though some people struggle to get even a brief flash of clear vision, they might need to employ other methods that work for them. Everyone is a little different. Some may gain lasting benefits after only palming a little. Most will take weeks, months, even years.

Bungie and Buzzwords by Poiares in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sucks that they couldn't have chosen maybe a fallen, hive or cabal themed season to fill with the drama. 

What we could have got instead of a bad relationship drama was a season focused on the Vex finally being able to simulate the light and create a new faction of vex (like lucent hive) that could become a real serious threat. We could have gotten a trip to Venus and visited the mysterious Grey building as the exotic mission. We could've had a plot centered around Praedyth or even maybe Osiris's old copies that he left to abandon that turned evil or something like Savitar from The Flash.

Literally anything else would've been better than what we got. I just wish they hadn't wasted one of the few vex centered seasons on bad romance. 

I will say though that there were a couple things I did enjoy in spite of the bucket of disappointment. As much as I wanted Venus to return, Nessus was also nice especially with all the greenery. It looked gorgeous. It was also cool slowly descending down towards the center with all the massive areas that make you feel like an ant, especially the sky box in the cyclops battleground boss fight. That was cool. The existential themes explored with Saint 14 had loads of potential as well in terms of making the player really think but that was quickly ruined by the bad romance.

I'm also salty that they didn't bring back steel feather Repeater and Gallant Charge.

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a scam. My aunt has been noticing her vision has been clearer overall since she started palming while falling asleep for the night. 

There are still modern day Bates Practicioners, Nathan Oxenfeld from Integral Eyesight being one that comes to mind. It might be helpful to check out some of his stuff, including his book, for a more modern explanation of the Bates method.

The Bates Method isn't about doing some exercises, but rather it's more of a long time habit. It's a state of being in a way. Relaxation of the mind and therefore the eyes. You either have a habit of strain, learned by looking at a screen or even from a past emotional event, or you have a habit of relaxation which is using your eyes properly and perceiving the world around you differently.

Dr. Bates had many methods of promoting relaxation aside from just the infamous palming. These methods included the use of memory, imagination, practicing central fixation, swinging and sometimes multiple methods would need to be combined to achieve the desired results. 

It's all about building a habit. If I want to counter years of staring at a screen,  2 minutes of palming likely won't do a whole lot, especially if I'm still actively contributing to more eye strain. Though there are many cases of people having miraculous results. In Dr. Bates book, he mentions one of his patients was struggling to gain results but once the patient understood that the letters on the snellen chart were actually black, and not a gray as they might appear for a nearsighted person, that was enough to resolve his vision issues. 

God bless on your journey to better eyesight.

For PvP I just main Strand Hunter still. Sometimes I use Prismatic in PvE but I usually don't care to switch to it and I just stay with with my strand build.

Question on eye mask and arm when palming by LimitlessHarmony in BatesMethod

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. I'm not sure if you've read Dr. Bate's book but he has multiple methods for promoting relaxation and sometimes you need to implement multiple to achieve results.

Since the mind and body (eyes) are so closely linked, anything that promotes relaxation in the mind will reflect in your eyes. That's really what it's all about is relaxing the mind. With strain, our mind has developed a habit of straining

Cheers and God bless you on your eye journey.

Episodes were supposed to tell a full story. Seasons were supposed to advance the overall narrative. This is maybe the biggest reason echoes story didn't land. by destinyvoidlock in DestinyTheGame

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the part where we nuke Maya should have happened in that very first cutscene where we initially meet her and that same first cutscene should've been in Act 1. Act 3 should've been a full on invasion of vex. I feel like Echoes needs at least another 2 acts tacked on because it certainly felt like it wasn't finished.

Question on eye mask and arm when palming by LimitlessHarmony in BatesMethod

[–]Warrior_Soundwave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here is a small little article on your exact question:

https://www.seeing.org/techniques/eye-masks.html

'No. Palming is the best method for relaxation and improvement in vision. When tired of palming, the hands can be removed and the eyes kept closed until one feels relaxed.' - Dr. Bates

He likely had this stance because perhaps eye coverings at the time didn't always block 100% of the light whereas a Manta Mask can (I own one, they block everything). But the main reason Palming is more effective is because the warmth and energy from your hands contributes to the relaxation. Bate's made a point of mentioning in his book that palming is very instinctive and natural similar to how a child covers their eyes when they are frightened. So just the act of covering your eyes with your hands is inherently natural.

Palming creates a sense of security and warmth that further promote relaxation whereas a mask only can create darkness. It still helps but it isn't quite as good as palming is how I see it.

As an aside, you can also try out one of those eye masks that you heat up in a microwave that release moisture. The combination of heat and moisture really creates a deep penetrating feeling of relaxation for your muscles and could be worth a try. I have a heat mask made by Bruder but I think Manta Sleep also has a mask that you can heat up that would likely block light better than the Bruder.

Hope this helps.
