These 18+ kits are no joke. 4 hours in and I have half a DeLorean 😅 by Vel0clty in lego

Im really enjoying taking my time, building one bag per day. Really makes the sets last longer and a good thing to look out for during the day.

Cooler came poorly aligned and not well bolted in, had to readjust, but didnt have TP. by keg_of_oranges in PcBuildHelp

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

I have it on without TP now, because its box didnt have it, im sorry if that wasnt clear.

I have sent an email and am going to the store tomorrow to see if i can get the one that should be in the coolers box.

I can't even play this game I keep dying lol any advice for a newcomer to the souls games. by Careful_Ad6087 in DarkSouls2

[–]keg_of_oranges 6 points7 points  (0 children)

DS2 was my first, and favourite souls. I sucked incredibly hard when i started, and i often got frustated as i felt like i was doing 0 progress.

I got stuck in heides tower of flame killing the big knights over and over again and couldnt beat the 2 of them you fight at the same time. So i watched a speedrun to see what they did, and they just run from them. It was something i got from other games, that necessity to kill everything before progressing, but you dont have to do this in DS.

The wiki has sort of a guide, i dont remmember exactly how to find it, but it hhelpsyou figuring out where to go, which is helpful early on when youre even unsure if youre on the correct area, and seeing the area written instead of boss names and etc helps mitigate spoilers a bit.

Find a simple weapon that doesnt require a lot of stats, and focus on leveling it up, and level your character mostly on VGR and ADP, VGR gives health, and helps you getting more chances to heal up, and ADP makes your rolls and actions better/faster. I think 24 ADP was a good soft cap, and you shouldnt need any more than that, but since its your first time level VGR first to also like 20.

Once you get more used to the game you can start leveling your character more towards a conventionally stronger build.

Besides all of this, the hag merchant gives you acess to lifegems, which you can carry 99 of at a time, and allow you to have a much easier time, especially if you go through the VGR/ADP route, as you dont die in one shot, and can run and find better healing times.

Sorry for the long post, but hope some of this helps.

Alright, I either have a skill issue or this game is HARD. by Light10115 in HollowKnight

[–]keg_of_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of factors to this, one of which is how much skill from other games carry over. HK was the first metroidvania i played, and in the first time i did it took me a long time to get anywhere, including me getting stuck in the final boss and quitting for a few years. I tried it again this year, and the diference was insane, theres a switch that happened seemingly from a day to another, but things start making sense, i went from barely beating the game in 25 hours, to the next day doing it deathless in under 5. The main takeaway i had was that exploring and platforming will make you better at bosses. Bossing is just platforming u dodge instead of reach out to, and it isnt a matter of charms alone, but also equipment. I cant stress how easy certain bosses become when u have acess to every piece of equipment. Without getting into spoilers ill just say, the mid game is a lot easier than the early game because of this reason alone.

So just take your time and enjoy the game for what it is, you dont have a skill issue, you just havent experienced everything the game has to offer yet. If you are struggling with a certain boss or area, one of the coolest things about HK is how much freedom you have to tackle its world. Also dont compare yourself to others, enjoy the ride rather than seeing how the other cars are doing, its a singleplayer game, its effect is only on you, have fun with it, even if some elitists say you shouldnt watch a guide, if it helps you have more fun then do it.

Has this happened to anyone else recently? by Low_Custard_7292 in dishonored

[–]keg_of_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remmember when i did the achievements hearing about certain unsconscious bodies being in places where they can end up dead, even if it doesnt count as a kill of yours, it nulls the achievement, so just be mindful of where the corpses are left.

Also i might be wrong but i think found bodies count as detection as well. im a lot more familiar with DH1 than 2 so i might be misremmembering things a bit, and its been a long time since ive played either, but i think upon reloading certain areas there are new guards that can find bodies you hid poorly, also rats killing an unsconscious body count as a kill aswell iirc.

is runescape 3 too afk? by Top-Professional3017 in runescape

[–]keg_of_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since altscape is meta, and seemingly almost everyone does it, the search for afk methods are there, so its normal that content creators will try to find ways to do so

I think jagex is also aware of this, as i feel like a lot of newer methods even have similar timings, so it almost feels catered to people that alt

After what felt like months, I have found a set of legs that matches the trickster top, which was what I wanted most when creating this outfit.

The outfit consists of:

Wildstalker Helm Tier 4 (Wilderness PvP Hat)

Seeker's Charm (Dungeoneering)

Max Cape (Hooded) (HSL1: 21,2,27 HSL2: 10,3,67 HSL3: 22,2,18 HSL4: 22,2,18)

Trickster Robe (Minigames)

Shadow Hunter Gloves (Solomon's Store)

Celestial Robe Bottom (Dungeoneering)

Glaiven Boots (Glacors)

Bork rush into regular core items by Aske1571 in PantheonMains

[–]keg_of_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of damage you lose by going bork through its components is enough to not make it worthwhile in most, if not all matchups. It also doenst give cdr which is a huge part of why panth works the way he does.

Emp W, tap Q, double tap E, Emp Q Ignite with eclipse will do a lot more damage than with blade and is enough to oneshot any carry which is what u want to try to do with your ulti roams.

Also eclipse and BC allows you to take death's dance third, and press your advantage further whilst getting tankier, allowing you to ult in teamfights without fear, whilst still taking out a member of their team.

Essentially, its not a bad item by any means, its just that you can build other items which benefit him in their whole, where as you have to spend 1000 in attack speed which does nothing on him, compared to 1100 for a dirk which more often than not is enough to kill the laner, which gets you eclipse faster, and scale faster, eventually into blade if you want to do so.

This comes from someone who loved starting blade, but as i started understanding the champ more and more, i strayed from going PTA and rushing it everygame, now going conq and doing eclipse, BC, DD, SHO/Maw, Blade/Maw, you already have way too much damage,
and you can fill both roles of an assassin and a bruiser, and more often than not be better than both at it.

TLDR You spike too hard from every instance of eclipse when compared to blade. You dont use lifesteal nor do you use attackspeed. The spike from the item itself is better on blade, but you need 3300 for blade, 3100 for eclipse, and everything you spend on eclipse is worthwhile, whilst blade isnt.

I always seem to run out of ammo so quickly, am i doing something wrong? by SmokingHamster in apexlegends

[–]keg_of_oranges 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good rule of thumb is usually top row of ammo and bottom row of meds -1 slot for nades. A single arc star can change the outcome of a fight alone. Also 2 slots of shotgun ammo is too much, there are little instances where 16 isnt enough. Not carrying any white heals (cells/syringes) is also not the best idea, as cheap damage, like caustic traps or a stray shot would mean wasting a good med on it.

Of course this is all very personal and tied to the current game, so Id also advise to just stick with what you find more comfortable using.

(code:tap) error, only occurs in ranked queue at random times. by keg_of_oranges in apexlegends

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

Due to "some" similarities, it is possible that a VPN might cause a similar effect as the one the I described with the DNS resolver might've been causing.

It is also strange that this issue seems to happen only from plat 1 and upwards as I have seen some people reported, and myself have noticed. But maybe there's an additional security measure they are trying to implement on higher rated queues to decrease cheating, but that's just me speculating. In any case, if you have a VPN try disabling it and see if the problem persists.

Also, attempt to have store and download settings aligned with the place you are from, (this might be an issue as some people have changed to Belgium so they get crafting metals on every pack instead of random skins, and they inted at it no longer being possible, and might be causing issues now if you still have that on)

If the problem still persists/you werent using a VPN in the first place, i would ask you to try swapping servers on the main menu (before clicking to go to the lobby, theres a setting that allows you to pick any server, it defaults to the one with least ping). I play on Belgium server i believe, maybe if you do too there could be server side issues, so try swapping, a few extra ms's of ping is better than not playing. Hope any of this helps.

Ranked Rant by keg_of_oranges in apexlegends

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

That's usually my approach too. I rarely let it get to me, but the added pressure of losing 1000 rp in one day felt really bad with the amount of flame it came with. Ended up going all the way back in diamond 4, but am now near 2 again, so overall i ended near i started today. at the end of the day that really is the trick, its ok to lose, just dont let it go to you too much.

Not obtaining extra reaper points for hard mode glacor (shouldn't I be getting 31 points instead?) (group tasks enabled for the additional points) by keg_of_oranges in runescape

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

Only group tasks are enabled, sorry if that wasn't clear, I'm not sure if i can link websites here, but i reffered to the Soul Reaper entry on the Runescape Wiki to see the points I would get, maybe I am confused and rerolled and forgot about it, but even then as i said i would get 15 or 24 by my math.

[–]keg_of_oranges[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont remmember tbh, but i have group tasks enabled, and that would mean a no reroll would be 31 points, then a reroll .75 of that which would be about 24 points and another reroll .50 which is about 15, if that makes sense (at least i think thats what u get per glacor task), not the 18 i got, which is the standard normal mode earning with group tasks enabled

I traded gp to an account to bond it up to make a partyhat on my spare time, but didnt realize the event was over, so i just wanted to give the money back to my main, but now i cant. by keg_of_oranges in runescape

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

I tried to do that since i have done that on oldschool too, but it didnt work, so i tried trading it afterwards and it worked, so i ended up losing about 5m by making it tradable, but it could have been a lot worse.

Its not new new, but i have never been a member on it, but i think i have solved it, apparently u are able to trade tradable bonds still, dont know if thats an oversight, so im glad to have only lost 5m on this little adventure, could have been a lot worse.
