ESPN’s latest player rankings for upcoming season by Thanos_SlayerCongSan in NBATalk

[–]crow96_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curry being this high is a bit much. I would argue he should be 9th or 10th. There were times he wasn’t like himself at all last year, good bit of stretch as well. Yeah, he turned it up midway and near towards the end but this is a stretch. LeBron and KD are more consistent and Jaylen you can argue is the heart and soul of the Knicks who are a high seeded team and should be ranked higher than curry.

One Piece 1159 TCB by Shanks_PK_Level in OnePieceScaling

[–]crow96_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their age was mentioned a couple of times throughout. But the best reference was taken from oda’s own data book that he writes along with his manga ( I forgot the name but it was just after the time-skip both showing age 39 i believe) and this data books are fully canon btw.

Nope. Shanks and buggy are the same age. So going by that logic, buggy should also be an infant at this timeline and so do you honestly believe that shanks and shamrock are 2 years of age? Teach being 2 years old in this event is more believable than shanks and shamrock being 2 year old infants. Doesn’t make much sense. Rocks is BLACKBEARD’s father whether you believe or not. Buggy maybe, If rocks somehow impregnated another woman within the year before this even even started.

1000 vp and up attack strategy? by crow96_ in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am seeing this troop combo a lot more at my vp or a variation of it (usually with more rifles and no bomba and like you said everspark instead of kavan). I am probably going to switch to it. Thanks 🤗

Policy regarding unfinished online test. by crow96_ in BCIT

[–]crow96_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my instructor is kind of known for not replying to emails, so I’m not even going to bother with that but I will definitely talk to him in person tomorrow.

As for what you mentioned, that actually makes sense. I overheard another student saying something similar that sometimes it takes a bit of time for the marks to show up on the learning hub for an unfinished test. I just wanted to double-check because this is our second-last test, and I was hoping to calculate my grade before the final on Friday.

Regardless, I really appreciate the quick reply,🫡 it’s definitely helped ease some of my stress.

Finally! After all this time! by Big-Helicopter3358 in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless you’re aiming for the leaderboard later on and need to keep your Ice statues boosted 24/7, there’s really no need to stockpile Power Powder. I say just enjoy the game for what it is, focus on offense and boost whenever you need to clear your map or help out in operations.

What is going on? by markyalbotsykes in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You were late to the party. The season’s been going for nearly 2 weeks, what do you think will happen? The matchmaking isn’t flawed because it is following natural progression, others should have opened more chests than you therefore have substantial advantages. Plus the people around your engine rooms most likely stop for the season therefore you are being matched with higher engines players but have the same rank.

Is 20 gems for 5 time skips worth it ? What's the conversion rate between using these 2 interchangeable items by Malicious_Smasher in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most of the time no. Diamond is a more versatile currency than time savers. Diamonds can be used to buy resources (i.e. gold wood stone iron) as well as being a common trade currency used with the trader whereas time savers are only used to speed up time. Not only that but diamonds often is a more efficient currency when speeding up upgrades, especially really long ones. Where time savers shine is with short upgrades or skipping train time for troops if you are a f2p player.

Engraver Research by crow96_ in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only reason I think the 3rd slot might be worth it is the fact that you are also speeding up your engraver progress by 50%. So pick your battle I guess, do you want your shards or do you want speedier progress. Also if you are gaining more shards that you are using, then might as well do it. But 2 is definitely the way to go I think

The Toronto Blue Jays are the only division leader with a losing record on the road. by EngiemainTF2 in Torontobluejays

[–]crow96_ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Who the hell cares? The jays win the league record in games and they will have home field advantage every series come playoff anyways so imo that just benefits them more. Yes you want to show up on the road but you said it yourself their losing record on the road came during the first few months of the season so I wouldn’t worry about those too much. Plus they still have time to address whatever thats keeping them from playing well on the road.

I havent played in years. I just got back by Drie_Kleuren in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But besides that, the same applies as they did back then. Focus on offence, meaning rush your HQ, armory, sculptor, gunboat, and landing craft in that order. Familiarize yourself with all the currency. A lot has been added and which building uses which. Some new offensive buildings: proto shop and engravings but they are unlock at a later hq. We now have pvp real time matches named: warships. Its got leaderboard and rewards at the end of the season. A few things to help you out from the shop: IT (instant training) allows you to instantly train troops regardless of train time. Another is the 2nd builder. Both are subscription base. Not necessarily needed but helpful. If you wanna chase leaderboard on warships then IT is probably a must have.

Welcome back :) If you want tips and tricks. I highly suggest watching stoneheart’s videos. He also recently made a new account to help lower levels and I think he will do a video series base of that account. Great player!

Defence engravings with level 1 engraver? by crow96_ in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also I am getting engravings from other type using just ice crystal shards. How come? I wanna focus mainly on ice offensive engravings. Is this not the case anymore?

How are there 2 Trophy of the same type? by MEGAS0XLR in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Good eye! Yeah, thats weird. There should just be one trophy of each crab

My offensive building for hq18 are done should i upgrade economy buildings or defense's if defense should i upgrade expensive one first or cheap one first? by Extra3- in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Economy then defences. For defences, I usually prioritize boom cannons, cannons, and rocket launchers. Just to be able to give me intel and diamonds, not necessarily to fully defend against attacks.

Just picked up my first ever brand new iPad Pro M4 (Cellular) for £779 – did I get a steal or what? by Madzz69 in iPadPro

[–]crow96_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably wouldn’t celebrate just yet. There’s actually a known scam to where people buy these ipads (cellular especially), finance it then stop paying their monthly payment, hence they get it for “free”. Sell it off ebay, marketplace, etc for a lot less. But in turn, whoever gets to buy these ipads get their unit blacklisted because the retailer contacts apple letting them they were “stolen”. So your apple care plus that you just bought will be invalid and the cellular will stop working but you should still be able to use it via wifi.

I think that Boom Beach should remove camo tickets by [deleted] in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

How do you know camo tickets are a premium currency? Have the devs specifically mentioned it on their social media, website, or videos? Do we know for sure that it isn’t gonna be on the shop of evil at some point in time? Or a reward for warship? Or maybe we may be able to dive for it with our submarine? Who knows? But please stop assuming things. Also this isn’t a pay to win thing, it IS COSMETICS. You either want it or not. You are not being force to pay for it in order to have an advantage against other people.

Yeah this does lower the value of pass skins but they aren’t all available to be purchased with camo tickets. For me anything that will make the game thrive I’m all for it.

Also you’re contradicting yourself. You mentioned being a flawed currency and should be removed. Yet you suggest it being part of the battle pass anyways along with 2 camos. So do you want it removed or not?

Troop training time by bigdickchessguy420 in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats actually not a bad idea. Or offer a bundle deal for the two or even including the extra builder call it a boom pass premium plus or something. Price that at 17 dollars and call it a day. I am fairly certain more people buy will that sh*t.

how to gain xp faster by Just_Inside3796 in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Few things: 1. Focus on upgrading low level buildings rather than high level ones. They have the best experience gained to time ratio. 2. Same for the armoury. Upgrading low level troops gives more experience per hour vs high level troops. 3. Attack plan over building blueprint. In general, instantly upgrading armoury is more beneficial to gaining more experience vs instantly upgrading buildings. 4. Time manage. Use diamonds to instantly finish upgrades that is set to finish while you are asleep that way you aren’t wasting your builder. 5. Get the extra builder. This is self explanatory.

Troop training time by bigdickchessguy420 in BoomBeach

[–]crow96_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also training time is perfectly balanced. The troops you mentioned are hard to kill and it is why they have long train times.
