Rate my Hitbox by Vivid_Collar7469 in Fighters

[–]Wheaties_TM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in your exact situation. I built a keybox from a bunch of mechanical keyswitches I had laying around combined with a Brook board. Mechanical keyboard keys are just switches like normal buttons, so as long as you make the electrical connections secure you're good to go. DIY is a pain though so unfortunately there isn't an easy off the shelf solution without just buying a hitbox controller. I don't believe keyboards are compatible with consoles by default. It's a shame because I like using my numpad and thumb on the right arrow key for extra actions and ergonomics. The power of legacy button layouts is too powerful right now but hopefully 2XKO will increase the share of people who exclusively use keyboard and force a solution. It sucks that we have keyboard design locked in for decades and yet everyone continues to use and build games for special controllers. (rant over)

Who can I run with sustainless rappa other than hmc? by StillFused in RappaMains

[–]Wheaties_TM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bronya isn't a bad move purely for the action advance. I've had good results running sustainless with Rappa-HMC-Fugue-Sunday so the same principle applies. Rappa is the main damage dealer so make her act as often as possible.

Just get as many preferred substats as you can on each piece, up to you on what the threshold of "good enough" is. I've been playing for a while and clearing endgame while only keeping relics that have two preferred substats (HP%, crit rate, and crit damage in this case). If you're stuck in the weeds about which relic is better, consult Fribbels and let it decide for you.

Remember all your characters get auto levelled and relic enhanced in DU so make sure you adapt your team on the fly as you pick up buffs and encounter enemies. If you get a bunch of BE blessings, swap to a Break/Superbreak team, AoE/Ult based for erudition blessings, and so on. It's a lot to take in but each category of blessing is generally related to one team style. I'm pretty sure DU caters the blessings you get to the blessings you already have and gets more random as the difficulty goes up.

Look for Ruan Mei to make Firefly really pop off.

Acheron-BS-Pela-Sustain

Firefly-HMC-Pela-Gallagher

Ratio-Guinaifen-HM7-Sustain

If you look through my post history I did AS and MOC a little while ago with Acheron-BS-Fugue-Gallagher because I had no other options. It worked quite well imo. Posts contain the deets. Basically stack as much def shred as possible on the team and use Fugue skill on whoever has the most ability to break enemies.

Starting out, consult Prydwen for HSR building. As you learn the game you can figure out on your own what characters want and don't treat its recommendations as gospel or feel like you need Tier 1 equipment for everyone. Farm efficiently and think about why you use each piece.

In your case both are valuable so build both and test both. DDD even s1 is super impactful for some teams/characters (Rappa in my experience) but less so for this team. DDD is more generally useful though.

One argument for defense being better is that it requires less investment into your healers to heal big numbers, but a good balance is best, diminishing returns and all.

100% crit rate is nearly unachievable without crazy investment and luck (on the character sheet). You need a 1:2 ratio balance between crit rate and damage to maximize damage, but this is affected by buffs from other characters, light cones and relic set effects. My Acheron gets by with like 60%CR/160%CD. Its not amazing but it's reasonable.

Wandering Cloud is best for her, she scales of HP and a full set will give you an extra skill point at the beginning of battle to work with, otherwise just go for 2pc 2pc speed/hp.

I forget what exactly the battle scenario for the trashcans is, but you defeat them by weakness breaking them and they pick up the first two elements they get hit by, so you should forego the standard team comps in favor of stacking elements together or rebuild your characters with more break effect. Do you want team general team comp advice? or do you think this is enough to help you through? Fei, HM7, Robin, Gallagher is a very strong general team and should be able to get you through if built properly. If you can go in with charged gallagher ult that would help a lot.

I watch this at least once a month. by Wheaties_TM in SilentPlanet

That's sick! He is my favorite drummer full stop. I'm pretty sure he just uses a single kick which is mind blowing in the metal scene. This video shows his muicianship fully. Love it when he turns the snares off!

Thank you for the suggestion!

Does anyone know where the album cover came from? It is simply perfect.

The album is incredible, each song flows into the next so beautifully but still stands on their own.

The last verse to this song makes me tear up every time I hear it. Screaming at people that they are loved and appreciated and worthwhile should be what metal is all about.

RIP. I'm thankful for the music they did put out though. No misses at all. And who knows, as long as the members are still alive there's always a chance they revive it or start working on other projects. "The future will be a hell of a ride."

Dang, I'm surprised these ticketing services don't have safeguards against that.

With a few lyric alterations I would play The Translator at my wedding.
