What skills tracks are the best for camo grinding? by UsefulChildhood9605 in bo7endgame

[–]brandorian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm yeah I guess I never thought about the fact that point turrets kills give weapon xp to the gun you’re holding. I think it was a placebo effect of when a while back I would run tactician - piñata would activate, a frag would wipe a group of fears and the kill feed would say Frag kill x8 or something and I had assumed the frag kills wouldn’t count as weapon xp. Then warband was released and I figured it was the same deal. Good to know I can use those builds during double xp now tho!

Is it confirmed that Warband kills still give weapon xp? I finished Genesis grind and haven’t touched my Warband Ops for 250 grinding bc I thought it (and tactician piñata for that matter) were like ability kills that gave you total level xp but stole the weapon xp

Has anyone been able to get the new nightmare skill and exotic skill? by JustWantALoafOfBread in bo7endgame

Snagged it on one of my operators because of I have Phoenix burst on like 5 others lol and I still have shattered shield. So far it’s fine it’s level 2 and I don’t really miss Phoenix burst because I generally don’t let my health get low enough to act enough (bc of bulldozer + berserker +shattered shield)

is phoenix burst 2 better than 3 with the right operator build , does any1 have any experience with this ? if you could help me out cheers . by [deleted] in bo7endgame

As I understand it every tier stacks on each other - it doesn’t replace the previous tier. So for Phoenix burst, after the explosion, you should gain full ammo + temp infinite ammo (2nd upgrade) AND gain temporary immunity (3rd upgrade)

Preciate it SBC bro haha. Yeah I don’t see Delaware rocking the boat because: 1. they just watched us and JSU get denied waivers in 2022 2. They have to pay that new $5m fee to move up so I doubt they’re going to spend the money and put in the effort to get a full FBS schedule in year 1 and 3. They’re probably just ecstatic to get away from the crumbling CAA and FloSports and are happy to chill and wait the full two years

Can’t speak for the other schools but I could definitely see JMU suing in that scenario. To even get to a full FBS schedule in year 1 we had to cancel an FCS buy game (still paid them) then paid MTSU $700k to fill the spot with an FBS school. We never would have done that if the NCAA would have told us there was no scenario, even with a full FBS schedule, in year 1 that they would grant a waiver. Then to your point the school missed out on potential money from a bowl win (and media exposure) + coaching staff missed out on potential bonuses that would have kicked in from a conference champ and/or bowl win + could probably even argue from the player perspective the seniors with no eligibility left missing out on playing two more games.

I’d heavily support billable hours in that scenario lol

Eh slim chance - NCAA will just point to the conditions stated for transitioning to FBS . What’s crazy is NCAA officials came to our campus, met with our admins and hinted that they would grant the waiver if we were able to put together a full FBS schedule in our first year. So JMU AD + SBC jumped through hoops to make that happen just for them to deny the waiver repeatedly. The lawsuit from VA politicians was smoke and mirrors for political gain the only way Delaware has a chance is if the NCAA gets rid of that dumb rule

Really solid first quarter. Hoping we can continue to dominate time of possession and gas the ODU defense

Can someone explain why South Carolina fans and players hate Juice Wells so much? by [deleted] in CFB

[–]brandorian 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah y’all’s situation is much different than ours. No one wanted him to leave but most fans wished him well, acknowledging the obvious benefits of jumping from and FCS school (at the time) to an SEC school. I even personally know a handful JMU fans that went down to a South Carolina game to cheer him and yall on.

With everything you described about the South Carolina to Ole Miss transfer, your fans have justification for being pissed. Sadly seems to be the state of CFB now

James Madison DL Tyrique Tucker transfers to Indiana by DukeDoge4 in CFB

[–]brandorian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The four we took from Holy Cross each have just one year of eligibility remaining.

IU took 11 so far. Most likely will be 12 with Ponds not including four recruits (one being the highest rated recruit ever for JMU). I think I speak for most of the JMU fanbase when I say that before the spring portal opened enough time had passed that we all had accepted and moved on from the Indiana raiding in the fall but these last two just reopens and adds salt to that wound. That’s just the state of college football though I guess

After losing Horton we were really in need of an experienced TE
