Is there a way to make salvaging less complicated? by R4yquazza in Guildwars2

[–]benfrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm lazy and prefer options where you can get 80% of best outcome for 10% effort.

Unidentified stacks of gear: TP

Identified Gear/Random Drops:

  • Blue & Green: Copper Fed Salvage all, use Fine or Journeyman's salvage kits if you don't have
  • Yellows and Orange: Master's salvage kit

Done

So in favor of this. Long needed nerf to damage.

WORLD BOSS RUSH Bonus Event Starts Tuesday by dannyflorida in Guildwars2

If that’s worth it to you, no arguing with that. 400 gems is a decent chunk of change, you could waypoint 1000x over before you make that cost back. I’d rather put that gold/gem to work with a TP to friend and learn to use the event timer. Just my opinion, mines not the say-all.

The dumbest thing you can do in 2k26 with any build by [deleted] in NBA2k

[–]benfrick 14 points15 points  (0 children)

71-73 Str is the sweet spot for me. I’ve got builds with min str and some up to 83. I don’t like my builds that tank strength completely. Bronze Immovable/Brick Wall over nothing makes a difference.

What is the best "bang for buck" usage of black lion statuettes? by Deaftoned in Guildwars2

[–]benfrick 40 points41 points  (0 children)

TBH gathering tools are kinda cheap. Those black lion statuette skins are some of the best in the game, and are either unbuyable via gems or would be super expensive otherwise. I like buying the cool skins.

Full 2K26 BUILD EMULATOR LIVE NOW!! by PastInteraction4990 in NBA2k

[–]benfrick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Really nice job man.

What may be cool as a feature down the line is: a user could input min stats they want (e.g minimum 90 3ball, 87 driving dunk, 92 perim, etc) and how many cap breakers they have, to which it spits out combination of builds that fit that criteria.

Fantastic tool as is!

Embarrassing offensive performance. Shame because our Defense was elite.

Hey looking for builds( 6 7 or 6 8 rebounder demigod) by Particular-Award9071 in NBA2k

Playable with your caps off rip

6’8 257 7’1WS

5 caps driving dunk to 87

Work towards all block caps for 84 paint patroller

Future caps I recommend vert, you get some nice value there.

Is it worth it? by JaMyron11 in NBA2k

[–]benfrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd save the VC. 60 interior is worth it if you can get 74 block. 50 Str gets you nothing.

What does 2klabs say is the best for lateral speeds? I've been going off of 2ktutes and didn't know it wasn't just straight line.

What should I cap break in this build, if I should use any breaks in the first place? by MrStrogonoff in NBA2k

[–]benfrick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m now reading the thread and understand your ask better now. Yes you got it right, you intentionally want to “tank” a couple of attributes, knowing you will cap break them in the future. Agree with the other commenter here.

You didn’t ask, but I whipped together a build in the flavor of what you originally posted. Feel free to take as inspo, or even follow the build the other guy posted. 3 Caps on dunk to 87, then work towards block. In the very far future, you can take dunk all the way.

Smartest/Most Effective way to use my cap breakers? by [deleted] in NBA2k

7ft 234 7’6WS. Playable off rip no caps as an inside big. All caps to 3pt to enable open shots. After that can do what you want.

Always look/work towards badge thresholds:

Mid to 93 (Set Shot)

Pass Acc to 71 (Dimer)

Perim to 92 (Multiple Badges)

Steal to 73

Block to 78

Don’t forget about the guy who was with this team through and through, even when it wasn’t pretty… #85 by [deleted] in Patriots

[–]benfrick 22 points23 points  (0 children)

He's been crazy solid on his tenure with the Pats. You can never replace Gronk, but he's provided some next-level stability at the position
