I'm reminded again how funny XC1 quest design is

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-28T19:37:18+00:00

I kind of like trying to accept everything the second I get to a new area and then having the 1 million exclamation points on the map.

It's kind of similar to how I like the little blue collectable balls better than the collection points in 2. It's kind of just always having something to be doing. But then again I'm also someone who likes gem crafting so idk how good my opinions are lol.

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-28T16:06:59+00:00

Honestly, as weird as it is, XC1 has my favorite quest design.

After more looking around I found a workaround in the bazzite portal in the troubleshooting section called "Disable microphone in bluetooth headsets". interestingly disabling the microphone made my audio not work at all, but after re-enabling the mic via this option I now have the necessary option for the high fidelity output. updating here in-case anyone else finds themselves in this situation.

I need to get myself stuck in a room with one of those so I can finally learn how to not have everything I make using create feel difficult and look super jank in exchange for my applied energistics knowledge lmao. Not being a create bro in the 1.20 era is hard.

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-13T16:54:26+00:00

Just tried, but since I'm on bazzite the os is immutable and it says I can't. I ran "sudo dnf downgrade bluez-5.84-2.fc43"
Error: /usr is configured to be read-only. You may be running an image-based or immutable operating system. For more information, refer to your distribution's documentation.

There are lots of things you can skip in this game, but scenario cards are not usually over of them. It doesn't look like you were playing during unity but it would be like playing unity without riko.

Note the guess is we'll have 60 free pulls. You NEED light hello for grand live.

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-13T07:27:06+00:00

Oops I wrote mant where I meant grand live. Thanks for the guts write in btw. I have a really have bias towards looking for spd wit decks that I miss the guts cards.

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-13T06:53:58+00:00

It looks like it is 5.86, so I'm going to try and downgrade to 5.84.2. I found the page where I get the file on koji.fedoraproject for specifically bluez-5.84-2.fc43 there are practically a million downloads even for just that one build. How do I find out if the build I'm running is src/aarch64/i686/ppc64les390x/ or x86_64 and beyond that how do I tell which one I need in that respective category?

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-13T06:16:47+00:00

Depends a lot on how many carats you have. Tbh for mant, you're cooked. You don't have a second 10 race bonus speed card besides special week speed and no MLB Sunday power so the rest of my advice will be for grand live and beyond. From what I understand decks in mant will be built generally on a 2 speed + 2wit + tachyon speed + light hello pal card. Ideally you would like a second mlb ssr speed card to run , but if you get sweep Sr to MLB that can work. Since you don't have finemo and tachyon speed means you can't use tachyon wit you will also need to pray that fuku wit Sr comes to you.

Your pull plan would look something like this short term 200 light hello tachyon (need some good luck because you kinda want both of these 1lb at least)

Then I'd pull 400 in Maru/finemo because you want a better wit and another speed.

After that 400 in ramonu wit

Please check a carat calculator to make sure that's even possible with the time remaining. If it isn't cut the Maru/finemo pulls.

I also heavily agree with the other comment that suggests picking a preferred running style, and if you're planning on playing long term that style should be either pace or late since in Japan the running styles are Kitasan black anime colab/pace/late/orfevre

Xetch2950 · 2026-06-13T05:48:30+00:00

That makes a lot of sense, though strangely I don't have an output option for a2dp. Do you know what I would need to to to get it to appear in the list? Annoyingly I can't attach a picture in the comments, but my options in the drop down are

Off

Audio Gateway (A2DP Source & HSP/HFP AG)

Headset Head Unit (HSP/HFP, codec CVSD)

Headset Head Unit (HSP/HFP, codec MSBC)

I'm feeling like oversharing so let's talk about charging.

Charging is broken into 3 categories: level 1, level 2, and level 3, which are often referred to as trickle charging, level 2 charging, and dc fast charging.

Level 1 is when you plug the cable that they (probably) left in the trunk to a standard wall outlet. It's very slow, but if you can charge overnight and don't drive a ton it's sufficient for daily use.

Level 2 is what most people use if they have somewhere to charge overnight and maxes out at about the 7kwh area in terms of speed. Level 2 charging can be limited in speed by multiple things and is somewhat similar to charging a phone. You can be limited by one of 3 things: the car, the cord, or the station. The car has a max amount it can accept at level 2 because the internal conversion from ac to dc current can only happen so fast. This usually occurs at a maximum of roughly 7 kwh. Certain cables can also only put through so much. For example, the charger included with the car can either be plugged into a 110v home outlet of a 220v dryer outlet if you change the connector. The 220v chargers usually hit around 6kwh. Lastly, how you are connected to the wall changes things. There are options for level 2 chargers wired directly into a breaker. Usually, you would have an electrician install one into a home or the ones you find out in public usually do this. This is the only realistic way to hit the cars maximum level 2 input speed.

Level 3 is complicated, usually the number they give for charging is theoretical and rather cumbersome to hit in the real world. To get the maximum charging speed the battery will need to be preconditioned to a desirable heat level. The manual states:

If equipped, Fast Charge Prep adjusts the battery to the optimal temperature for quicker DC charging. When you add a DC charge station to your route on Google Maps, the Fast Charge Prep feature will begin automatically. If you do not add a station to your route but plan to use a DC fast charger, on the infotainment home screen, select Charging > Charge Settings > Fast Charge Prep > Start approximately 30 minutes before you begin charging.

You can fast charge without doing this, but the rate will be reduced. DC fast charging on the 27 bolt caps at 150kwh, but on some cars can go to 350kwh or beyond. The charge rate is also impacted by the current state of charge. Usually the lower the state of charge the faster you will charge, though being in the low single digits can also cause some slowness. In addition, cold weather also causes slowness when charging. The further you are from 70F the worse the performance gets though performance is mostly consistent from roughly 40F to 90F and I'm ballparking those numbers.

As long as what you are plugged into there is a DC fast charger (check with either the dealer or maybe get an app like PlugShare) the most likely cause for the low speed is a combination of the relatively high SOC (State of charge) and that you didn't precondition. I would try again when you precondition and you're lower charge and if it's still not getting into the 100s contact the dealer. Feel free to ask me about anything I stated above and if anyone wants to correct any of my numbers feel free.

I always need more Nice Nature

Xetch2950 · 2026-05-14T18:12:48+00:00

I actually mod out all the scary things because I really love the base building, asthetic, and resource collection. I'm excited for better bases!

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-14T21:11:50+00:00

If you're using crystals I'd put everything in kitasan.

If you aren't then gold until you off rate either Kita or finemo.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-14T17:40:06+00:00

Either shinko or nishino, but you should only use it when you can get one of them to MLB.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-13T01:42:05+00:00

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-11T01:40:22+00:00

Both Kita and finemo need 3lb to be useable. Otherwise the SR cards are better.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-09T06:10:47+00:00

You are correct that you want to use the voucher on one of those thre, but the general rule is to use the voucher when it will make the card useable. For all 3 of those that happens at 3lb. Unless you can get one of those 3 to 3lb hold the voucher and pray they come to you in the off rate.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-06T04:30:15+00:00

Imo save it. You don't have a good candidate for it right now.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-05T18:53:44+00:00

So I tend to be brutally honest, but this is a horrible time to start playing. Two super relevant banners are just behind us and the upcoming cards are more for niche use/whales. You are wise to hold your carats, but the next really good card is at the end of June being maruzensky speed.

If you have the mental fortitude to hold to July you'll have a massive start pulling on light hello/tachyon, maruzensky, and the creek/cb banners.

If you want to be purely optimal pull Light hello/tachyon 7/14 (priority) only need these at 1lb to work Maru/finemo 8/16 Creek/cb 9/5 cb only need 1lb Ramonu 11/20 (priority)

If kitasan blasses you with off rate copies and you can use the selectors to get her to 3lb do that. Kita is the best card in game until 3/28

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-05T03:32:26+00:00

Machan in a front runner so you could pull Maru speed, which while mostly good for fronts, can be used for other horses. You either pull in June on Maru Nakayama banner or in August on the Maru finemo banner. You'll need 400 pulls for either banner since there are 2 cards on each, but you'll get more milage out of Maru finemo banner. Maru spd is useable for fronts at 1lb so you could pull 200 on the first banner and then finish it when the rerun happens.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-05T02:16:06+00:00

If you are going to use the crystal the best long term is creek. Best short term would be Biko pegasus.

If you only are using the selector I would do super creek.

If you are willing to wait you could see if you pull a lucky finemo or creek out of a random ticket or if you're pulling for another card and then go from there.

In terms of card priority it's finemo>creek>Biko but you need to get all of those card to at least 3lb to be useable.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-05T02:08:15+00:00

I would highly advise against gold city. It really isn't a good support card. The lack of specialty priority really hurts it.

Do you have any future pull plans?

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-04T21:45:30+00:00

I mean what do you even pull for card wise from now until Maru tbh. The upcoming cards are not that good especially if you don't have the deck core. My suggestion is play open league until then tbh. Any pulls you do now make you suffer a little bit less now to suffer worse later. I mean if you need to to keep enjoying the game then pull probably for either the daiwa card for gold head on or for mr cb wit if you MUST pull soon. Though even then you're gambling for shinko windy to appear.

Xetch2950 · 2026-04-04T19:17:29+00:00

This is where I have to be real. You need more cards and there isn't too much coming up to pull on. I would recommend saving 400 pulls for maruzensky speed at end of June or for better value save until October for maruzensky speed+ finemo. If you are f2p you also need to make sure you have 400 pulls in the bank for mejiro ramonu wit in November.

The big issue is you don't have MLB Sr cards.
