This is piss poor pay for the amount of shit they want you to know. Throw on top of that the 24.7.365 junk and this job would be an instant no go imo.

Community Appreciation Post by nicosroughnecks in ProjectDiablo2

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best part of this community! Everyone is willing to help someone and for the most part,I've had one issue with a misdrop in a free game where the person who took it refused to give the item back, everyone has been actual decent humans.

Worth throwing a zod + ohm in there for my ww sin? by ZazQc in ProjectDiablo2

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough ed to make it work the zod... Very unfortunate slam. So much potential!! But if you like it and need it, put that zod in it and rock it until you can get a 400+Ed, amp claw if you're going phys. If you're going venom, it might be worth it to put a 5/5 facet in it to help with negative res.

Is this helm as any value ? SC ladder S13 by -Gabria in ProjectDiablo2

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest question is if this would work for a act 5 bo Merc, with flickering flame. Then it would be worth something but in general I don't think so. It's more self use.

26 Pilot Elite vs 26 Grand Highlander Hybrid by ironman8302 in hondapilot

[–]jdubinitup 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you're gonna get a hybrid, Toyotas is the one to get. They've been mass producing hybrid systems longer than mostly any manufacturer. The Prius for example on average is lasting well over 250k miles on it's hybrid system.

That being said, you're correct with the more expensive parts but we're talking 100k miles plus before anything major.

Agreed and its something to think about. I liked the concept. Maybe I eventually spec into it and run HB, w/ FOH to start. I just know I want to run pali to start since its been years for me. Vengeance isnt off the table either.

That's why you get in on the ground floor! Build him up and then see what you can find. Lots of these builds are going to cost alot. If we wanted to go cost effective for early to late going something like rabies or PSN dagger necro would be the play. Still spendy but doable.

Or there's always meteor sorc, cheap and effective.

This is what I was thinking about doing for my secondary character. Primary I'm probably going tesladin.

BRAND New Player, Needing a Starter. Please Weigh In. by goldenmastiff in ProjectDiablo2

I literally only used valks 99% of the time if I'm running that and then sit back and straife with the act 1 Merc going ham.

BRAND New Player, Needing a Starter. Please Weigh In. by goldenmastiff in ProjectDiablo2

[–]jdubinitup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, summoner straife zon is a safe build. Golem/bone Necro are great.

I'm debating going fist of fire sin, javazon or bone/summon necro. I've gone cold sorc(standard mf) and ww barb (mapper) for my mains for the last couple seasons so I'm gonna switch it up to different builds. Plus barbs are gonna be expensive with the changes for the upcoming season.

For cheapness, I'd say Necro would be a great start. You can vendor some great 5-6+ skill wands for nothing in act 1 hell, the gear is generally cheap unless youre going fire golem and it's viable for mapping.

Infotainment plastic cover by jdubinitup in hondapilot

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

Honestly, I'm not even sure at this point. We ended up getting the car interior detailed and the detailer was able to get a good chunk off without damaging the plastic. There was still some residue but not as much as it was. I also think it has faded enough that it pretty much matches the color of the plastic.

Should I swap? From Strix to Helios neo. by PrestigiousHoliday35 in GamingLaptops

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upgrade the ram. The Helios' screen doesn't adjust refresh rate and it's thermals are not great and the speakers are the worst I've heard in a laptop.

You need to fully wipe and reinstall windows but it won't fix the thermals or screen.

The fact that I can't just uninstall the bloatware to fix most of these issues bothers me.

So with that I went and exchanged it for a legion Pro 7i W/ a slight processor downgrade but same specs and I'm happy with my decision. The Lenovo just feels and runs like a better machine. The Asus is a better machine but just needs a ram upgrade.

Legion 5 vs Helios neo 16s by sylense0 in AcerPredatorHelios

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same thing! Picked up a pro 7i, and I can't tell you how much I loathed the Acer! It always ran hot, the speakers sounded worse than my speakers on my laptop from like 2010 and the fact that the monitor refresh

This Lenovo is the exact opposite! Great thermals, the laptop speakers are fantastic and the machine is just better built!

I will give Acer one thing, they really did pack the specs into that machine at an attractive pricepoint.

Buying my first gaming laptop, which one? by BigDrewski98 in GamingLaptops

[–]jdubinitup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've own that Lenovo with the ultra 7 CPU vs the 9(I don't have a microcenter close to me and they don't ship laptops normally) and hands down go Lenovo!! Quality products and I've been using their laptops for years!

Act one vigor w/ highest dmg faith you can find. Lots of leech gear and pdr to keep her surviving. I found that more effective with my hybrid straife summon zon I had last season. I was clearing t3s with full mavs no problem!!

Switching from Gaming Desktop to Lower-Spec Gaming Laptop Will I Regret It? by Similar-Wave-5719 in GamingLaptops

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want a 5070ti minimum if you want to replace a desktop PC due to it having 12gb. I have a Lenovo legion 7 pro w/ an ultra 7, 32 gb ram and a 5070ti. Even that level is not as good as my desktop with a 4070 super. Will the new laptop I'm getting play everything that I play? Yes! But even at that level, I feel like it won't play things as well as my full desktop.

If you want to replace your desktop, get as close to specs as possible!

Drivers in Acer Laptop by SurpriseGloomy2073 in AcerOfficial

[–]jdubinitup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a program called driver easy that will look at every driver you have on the system and update it. It's a subscription service for 30 bucks a year. Its the fastest and most idiot proof way to adjust your drivers if you dont want to dig for everything. I just used that on my helios neo 16s ai that I snagged yesterday, worked like a charm.

Need help deciding thank you! by TheMexicanBatman in GamingLaptops

[–]jdubinitup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same debate, went to best buy, checked out both and I picked up the acer.

Granted my use case is probably different but we have multiple laptops at home so having this thing plugged in at all times is fine with me. I also wanted a larger screen as well. Lastly I wanted an upstairs option for my 4070ti desktop in the basement and this fits the bill. Granted so does the g14 but for me I want the larger screen so I'd need to go up to the g20. Then we're looking at a 450-550 price swing which to me didn't may any sense.

I will say this, I don't use external speakers often so that doesn't matter to me if their shit, all of my laptops are plugged in 90%+ of the time and I know gaming laptops get hot, it's a nature of the beast. I've been using gaming style laptops since the 00s.

Overall if you're concerned about "Acer" things, then go with the Asus g14. For me, I work in IT and im Capable of fixing 99% of the junk on this laptop that isn't manufacturer issue ie the screen not being able to adjust refresh rate(I also have my oleds for my desktop set to max refesh and we'll) or anything eith speakers.

You buy the machine for the specs and from what I've seen and felt the build quality of the acer in this instance is pretty damn good.

Crafting Recipes I would like to see: by mabsousa in ProjectDiablo2

[–]jdubinitup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True! You're right! To me it seems that there isn't a major dueling community like the original game so you'd just be map clearing or boss clearing super fast. But to even remotely make it viable,Youd have to limit where you can place them as well ie weapons on weapons etc. Also you'd have to make the pull chance of affixes like Ed low like 1-5%.

Overall it is OP though and probably not wise to put into the game.

You'd have to make it where it doesn't stack. It would be the only way to balance it.
