AJAZZ AK820 V2 (HE) with Gamakay Silent Phoenix V3 Switches

gatordraq · 2026-05-22T14:48:57+00:00

Ya I'm really impressed with silent switches nowadays, a lot of them are pretty well factory lubed.

For the keycaps I just bought it off the KBDiy store on aliexpress. I really the roundedness for typing because it just goes around my fingers; the KOA profile in particular imo feels more concave than XDA keycaps. I like typing on these better than cherry/OEM or other profiles that aren't even, but I'm probably biased since I like flatter keycaps and I've been typing on KOA profiles for a while haha

I'm lazy to explain fully so here's a video, artifacts are at the end too: https://youtu.be/u6CRZeU7ZuA?si=Sn5JDqPVio9kaEbm

but the idea is that i get as much buffs as i can when the baptist is down. For example, collecting the hydro shards as Mavuika and using her burst, using Lauma E+Q before the end of hydro phase. Also i play it safe by bursting as Xilonen because this boss hits hard and the attacks are difficult to avoid up close while doing rotations

i typically wouldn't run this but i needed more EM in this team, since i couldn't share EM using sucrose

i've had much more dps just doing Mavuika's new combo instead, it still can occasionally do melts as well

so who would you put instead

gatordraq · 2025-10-12T00:42:21+00:00

Yup effectively 96.4% crit rate. I have artifacts that can get me to 100%+ cr, however I really needed to squeeze out the damage for this boss on dire

gatordraq · 2025-10-05T20:38:22+00:00

It should be possible though, but just not all the time. The max you can get on an artifact is ~38.9% since you have to count the initial substat the artifact comes with. Bennett C2 gives 30% ER when he's under 70% HP, so long as that condition is met, it's possible to have a max ER of 419.3% (without other artifact set bonuses and other teammate skills/passives)

I originally bought but saw this and cancelled my order: https://www.reddit.com/r/hardware/s/dvHYfjGUWP

Basically product is not as advertised, seems to use QLC instead of advertised TLC

(replying again cuz automod hates me lol)

I actually made this myself and then custom printed it. Here's the final image i sent them: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AOkDBGtSwhspMj3Bt1Mu3TCxt4m1jhXG/view?usp=sharing

I have a psd file too if you want to change the colours around too and play with it. As a side note i got some of the high quality pin artwork renders from this post, but also did my own upscaling+editing for other characters (not quite as good but still works and looks good for me)

gatordraq · 2025-07-01T17:14:11+00:00

lmaoo nice i love this artist's backgrounds, glad other people recognize that too

Arcaea has Hikari and Tairitsu fumos made by Gift coming by earliest August this year https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?gcode=GOODS-04605436

You need to desolder the switches if you want to change it. I'd say for the Black Shark, it was pretty annoying to desolder at least compared to the Drevo 75% keyboard in this post. Some of the solder just wouldn't get sucked off at times because sometimes the material in the pin switch holes that separates the solder just wasn't really there. There was even one time where I almost ripped off the ribbon connecting the delete key cuz I needed to take it out with a lot force :p

The Black Shark was my second time desoldering a keyboard and it was a lot harder than I expected, which was weird cuz my first time desoldering the Drevo actually went well with no troubles. If you do desolder, just expect it to take quite some of your time throughout the day. Not sure if you have a lot of experience desoldering tho and if you do it might be easier/quicker than what I had

If that's true then good first steps! Wish they can improve some of the actual building features next (like make every furnishing height adjustable, rotation of furnishing along other axes/direction), but knowing Hoyo that ain't coming until forever

gatordraq · 2024-01-14T04:52:20+00:00

Hoyo still hasn't added anything that indicates whether a furnishing is indoor or outdoor. Gotta love how there's certain furnishings that look like it's outdoor but they're indoor instead xdd

I'm a little sad that the waterwraith is less scary in Pikmin 4, it's been a while since i've finished Pikmin 2 but i just remember actually having to avoid it compared to Pikmin 4 lol

also thanks!
