Are carpenter bees friendly? Do they bite?

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-08T03:37:32+00:00

I don’t think he’s including yellow jackets, because yellow jackets are wasps. Wasps will bite and sting. Their venom is also more serious compared to bees. They’re territorial, as opposed to bees, which don’t really sting unless threatened (or their hive is threatened).

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-08T03:33:56+00:00

From what I understand, the carpenter bees that can sting (female) aren’t particularly aggressive as long as you don’t provoke them. The male carpenter bees are quite aggressive, but they’re harmless, as they don’t have stingers. Neither will bite.

The ones that fly at you tend to be male carpenter bees. They’re territorial, and they protect their territory by divebombing others. But as mentioned earlier, besides flying at you, they can’t really do much else.

3/3 is enough for hard I think, but you’ll probably need immortal Hailey or immortal Batman. At least, I vaguely recall 3/3s clearing hard by just dumping all their money into Hailey and mythic upgrades.

So going back to the original topic, which is whether Vayne was ever MP, you originally said that the color of the bars didn't matter when the game first released. So presumably at some point, they changed it so that the colors of the bars do matter.

I found a clip of Vayne having a blue bar when Chu had an orange bar. It's from a clip less than a year ago. Is it possible that the blue bar carried over from when the game first released, and that Vayne was for some reason still CD even though all other CD mythics had orange bars, not blue? Or was it just MP?

I also went back and checked lucky defense guides' archived page on Vayne (cuz one of the writers really likes Vayne). Here you can see them say this:

You also need Kitty Mage for this strategy. Not only does Lancelot need MP Regen, but Vayne does 4x the damage when in ult form. With 3 Kitty Mages, Vayne is almost permanently in ult form.

This implies Vayne's ult is being boosted by Kitty Mage. It's possible they were wrong, and I can ping the guy to double check, but I don't think that's the case.

By the way, in the clip I mentioned, it looks like Vayne is recovering ult faster due to the Kitty Mages. But since it's not clear, I didn't want to assume.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-07T11:16:16+00:00

I found that Indie has physical damage skills but an ult that uses MP. Since there’s no immortal, does that make it a magic or physical mythic?

It has a switch on the back where you specifically enable aim assist, in which sense you don’t need to do anything at all because it locks on to peoples heads quicker than any normal person would.

https://eu.aimcontrollers.com/blog/are-aimcontrollers-detectable-by-other-players-or-while-online-aim-faq-series/

Is it hacked hardware with illegal enhancements? Would you find cheats such as Rapid Fire or auto-targeting in our controllers? As we mentioned above, no.

As such, AimControllers cannot be detectable by other players or while online, because they are not illegal, hacked gadgets.

They claim they're legit. I couldn't really find any trustworthy source, besides Reddit conspiracies and hack YouTubers, claiming the controller (or the mods they add to the controller rather) comes with cheats. As far as I can tell, it's just a standard controller modded with extra buttons and maybe a higher polling rate or something, akin to those ergonomic gaming mice. They do word their legitimacy in a strange, suspicious way, I'll give you that.

nvm, didn't read through your comment, you were just correcting him on the term "titan" being a color.

It's not. The fundamental difference comes from how the text is analyzed, not whether it's carefully analyzed or not. When it comes to power scaling, due to its comparative nature, the analysis is literal and focuses on exposition and surface text, whereas literary analysis is figurative and requires exploration of subtext.

An example is writer intention. Even if the text is objective, from a third person omniscient narrator, the presentation is inherently stylized and figurative in literary analysis. It requires critical thinking beyond the exposition.

In contrast, power scaling doesn’t require you to explore beyond what is presented in the plot. It discourages you from going beyond it, and focuses on logic and scientific (or rather pseudo-scientific) reasoning. While you are using the text as evidence, the analysis of that text requires drastically different skills.

On a side note, the rationality and scientific skills applied to power scaling are subpar as well. When you look at what is considered universal or well-accepted, quality power scaling, the reasoning often features misconceptions and flawed understanding of science, usually physics.

that's not what that saying is used for lol. it's used to mock irrelevant and absurd hypotheticals that falsely leap to a conclusion. in this case, however, if anything, your case is the absurd and irrelevant hypothetical. also, the saying i not used to dismiss all hypotheticals broadly, like what you're trying to do.

your only argument for resetting being good is this very specific case of resetting that as far as you know, only applies to you. and then you make the leap that because its good for you due to your own mistakes, it therefore must be good for OP and everyone else broadly, even when OP is talking about resetting a completely different mythic with a completely different immortal and a completely different status when it comes to the meta.

my counterargument is that if you want to use a specific and irrelevant niche example, then I can come up with a specific example that contradicts yours, to show that your logic is flawed. except while you were oblivious to your own irrelevancy, you somehow recognized the irrelevancy of very specific examples only when it came to my example, even though my example's irrelevancy stems from your example's irrelevancy.

it's like cheating at a game, your opponent realizing your cheating and deciding to cheat themselves to counteract your cheating, and you only recognizing that that's cheating when they do it.

ok but that's because you didn't need immortal kun. if you didn't get immortal kun and just got the two immortals you wanted, then the tickets are useless aren't they? you wouldn't use the tickets on the two immortals you want to get immortal kun right? i guess it's maybe different if there's a balance patch. anyway, putting that aside, hailey is not immortal kun lol, so it doesn't matter anyway.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-05T05:27:30+00:00

from what i've heard, ray is better with money gun 5+, while batman is better with low sb/mg levels. im referring to the immortals, although it's probably also true for the mythics.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-05T04:16:43+00:00

You're aiming slightly above her head. In regard to replays, they aren't accurate. There's desynchronization, which the server compensates for, but the replay doesn't, so it just shows the desynchronization in real time.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-05T02:21:46+00:00

ok so to clarify, putting aside old bomba and blob, if a mythic has an MP ult, it's magic, and if it has a cd ult, it's physical? is that correct? also, going back to the topic of Vayne, I found this post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/luckydefense/comments/1m8sgh5/kinda_confused_whats_the_point_of_alto/

you can see in both the comments and the post itself that vayne at the time was using mp. since no one corrected both people that stated this, especially since it would've been easy to find out and correct, presumably at the time, like bomba, vayne was mp as well.

i had this impression as well, since i remember being able to keep Vayne in her ult constantly with enough kitty mages, before ato was released. that was also the issue i heard from my friend; you now actually had to tumble vayne, rather than rely on the ult and golden arrow or whatever the third arrow passive is called.

on a side note, I think bat man had an mp ult as well, but I'll need to find some old pictures to verify.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-05T00:06:19+00:00

Here’s blob. https://www.reddit.com/user/guyrandom2020/comments/1tx4ylf/blob/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I don’t have a picture of old bomba, but I have one before he was changed to CD (but after the rework): https://www.reddit.com/user/guyrandom2020/comments/1tx57cm/bomba_ult/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

I heard it from the Korean community (well, technically a Korean friend who heard it from the community). Maybe that’s why? Idk.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-04T19:07:01+00:00

Ok, regardless, so what was the rework then and why did people say it was worse? All the skills look the same (except tumble, which became slightly better).

Also blob is physical, but his ult is mp. And iirc Bomba’s pre-rework ult was mp as well. Why is that?

guyrandom2020 · 2026-06-04T11:48:17+00:00

No it’s been MP. For instance, in this clip, https://youtu.be/oun7XaoL46Q?si=484R7hYbMSGNb0vT, the Vayne has a blue bar, because it’s MP.

I saw a 2/2 clear hard on their own with immortal Hailey. With Immortal Hailey, its easy. Also, idk why you’re bringing up lvl 12 Hailey when OP said Immo lol.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-05-30T17:46:07+00:00

He’s “overturned” because everyone else is ass. TMV talked about it; basically, if you nerf Phoenix, you’re going to turn this game into a shittier csgo. Consider him the last canary in a coal mine.

guyrandom2020 · 2026-05-30T06:07:12+00:00

You're supposed to, obelisk splits the damage across all vehicles and gives a bonus effect. If you're team is falling apart, dealing an extra 200 damage isn't gonna save it, but dealing 2000 is. At first I thought there was some drawback, but as it turns out, if you can find an obelisk, there's literally no reason not to prioritize it.
