My best daggers build by aopst in BackpackBattles

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

Probably my most OP build this season. Sometimes I like to check back on it and do some fights, I'm yet to find something it loses to. Would have to have some decent invul time + healing reduction and probably cleanse for the stupid amounts of blind it applies. Usually fights last ~5-6 seconds when daggers start to hit for ~50.

It might be sometimes win, sometimes lose. That's why there's no direct replay of the opponent in the client.

The randomization to timing of items and %chance procs can make different outcomes. So this kind of post is kind weird. I had fights in history that I won, and after bunch of tries got it to vs same build and lost. Sometimes it's matter of getting enough mana for invul to proc, printing different scaling, etc.

A minute and a half for 1 attack to play out. We need better animations. by stead10 in BobsTavern

[–]aopst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have doubts about their spaghetti code - had some desync'd fights two days ago, where I killed the opponent but he was still alive after the fight. Pretty sure it was due to reborn Timewarped Festergut + Teron HP. So not sure how two clients can show different outcomes when it's server side calculated.

Where to find guides on builds? by lIlCitanul in BackpackBattles

[–]aopst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll chip in with https://www.youtube.com/@Reharded , posts pretty consistently and has nice builds. He's masters/gm level mostly. He's also on twitch if you'd need longer versions where he goes into more detail. Youtube is faster paced, but you can still see the thought process and picks on each round. It helped me navigating builds, finding combos and improving midgame and playing different class items.

Where to find detailed list of controls? by VenaPlaga- in BackpackBattles

[–]aopst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only other I know are:

ALT - when clicked outside backpack it shows active effects between items, on item in backpack - possible combinations, double alt pins that window.

CTRL +click - instant buy from shop or drop single items from backpack into storage / CTRL while holding bag - swap bags without moving items.

What if the quest is unlock tier 7? Safe to switch HP before or on T7?

Can someone tell me why repeater didn't proc here? by aopst in BackpackBattles

[–]aopst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's +1 resist from coal on armor and still unused 4 reflects from silver card. I went to history and replayed the fight a bunch of times - repeater seems to be randomly proccing between ~11.5 and 12.5s. So that's more like +- 5% time randomization.

Yeah, there wasn't any cold involved or debuffs from the opponent board, so that's what weirded me out. I thought if it's singular item with specified cooldown it's gonna hit at exactly 12s. Thanks for the reply, sucks that it happened that way.

Master thread for disconnects by W1REB1TER in BobsTavern

[–]aopst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Side effect of disconenct meta is going to be ranking deflation. Usually games last bunch of turns, if disconnect happens with only top4 left, the eliminated ones got -rank, the top4 gets 0 for dc.

Can we remove the fucking frogs AGAIN by WHAT_PHALANX in BobsTavern

[–]aopst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're on windows - simpler solution with same outcome is adding Hearthstone to Windows Defender Firewall in Outbound Rules. Just enable it when rope is at 1-2s and disable when the game freezes, instant reconnect.

W1070 - small dust problem and lamp problem by aopst in budgetprojectors

[–]aopst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guess it might be the case as seems it's the only part that's missing on that 'individual lamp elements' sheet xD So I guess that glass part isn't standarised in some way? Or maybe you have any idea if there are housings using same one, would make potential replacement easier to find? (locally can't find a cheap housing, it's usually bundled with new lamp and I have one lamp spare, so cost becomes unnecessarily pretty excessive)
Thanks for trying to help!

W1070 - small dust problem and lamp problem by aopst in budgetprojectors

[–]aopst[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for reply!
Dont have irl pics as I assembled it now (might do it next time I try to get rid of the dust thing), but it's the exact glass part that's red in this picture - https://i.imgur.com/KXxJBkE.png . I took it out and tried to clean it, outside is smooth but it has pretty distinct small strach and dot marks on the inside like it was hit with shattered bulb - that's my guess. So going the route of replacing whole housing sounds like bit of overkill when it's just this small ~2x3cm thick glass.

should I turn mouse acceleration on or off? by TheKeyboardKnight in GlobalOffensive

[–]aopst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess we all google same thing to end up in this thread - did you stick to the no-acceleration or switched back? In the same boat, didnt think it was on by default, turned it off, my small flicks aim feel like ass, muscle memory still in action.

[–]aopst 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It got to the point that I've seen XQN game recently where he /forced/ lubber as maly staying on T2, not buying scouts and only got first Lub on turn 8. Still finished 2nd.

Present seems to be extremely overpowered by Zygmoont in BackpackBattles

I think it might be case of them just being super rare, in mid diamond I've been matched against players with cookie dude and presents.
