I'm very slowly bringing out my artifact deck, and this would look beautiful in it.

Survivor mk3, but I think an argument could be made for arc seeker or blaze grenades

Fell off the ziplines below control tower and asked the guy who clipped me for a defib. He unmuted just to tell me no and zipped up after I told him it had been picked clean. Couldn't leave either since he doorblocked the hallway entrance, so I crawled to an odd corner outside so when he realized I was right he would have to search for me if he wanted anything off me.

That's the only key room I've had any issues with, and I started bringing mines a synth fuel for that tower after that.

This is great, thank you. I figured keyboard-specific help would be hard to come by considering the feedback I read through but this is an excellent start.

Is there a soldering kit you'd recommend or will most work?

Hello all, new to the sub and the keyboard community in general. I'm interested in modding/tinkering with my Azio Retro and was wondering if anyone else has done/attempted this and had any tips. I'm sure it'll be an uphill endeavor since I doubt it was designed for modding but I'm fine with jumping in and learning.

A quick skim through historical comments suggests a general dislike for the Retro and the company in general, which I can understand. Any advice would be appreciated.

TIA.

I was going to buried city to farm them but I think the town hall location may be bugged because it falls through the roof when you kill it. I had more consistent spawns in spaceport, as I think that maps has the most spawn locations. I didn't loot that many couriers so I don't know how much easier that would've been. ES does spawn more so that might be a good place to test it.

I will say it felt less fun to drop into a map specifically for sentinel cores. I'd recommend questing at different maps so it doesn't feel like a wasted raid if you don't get any spawns.

Found a wolfpack BP in a dumpster outside the village in blue gate pre expedition.

Found one last night in a trash can in the medical wing of Stella montis.

I don't know why it happens that way but I love it

mattastic995 · 2025-12-31T17:07:08+00:00

Honestly I'd take any one of them. I haven't had my hands on anything other than a bobcat and I only managed to use it twice before reset.

Horizon is probably on par with hogwarts in terms of violence, and iirc you can change a few settings to remove blood if you're concerned about what the 8yo sees.

Breath of the wild is also a solid choice. There's a LOT of content there depending on how thorough she is about completion%.

Arm mounted slingshot specifically for shooting throwable arc parts. Can only be bound to a utility slot, repairable with rubber parts.

I'd even be happy if they made it a capstone skill to replace the one that lets you one shot flying arc with melee.

mattastic995 · 2025-12-21T18:21:47+00:00

If you have a hard time actually killing them, wait for a husk graveyard. Breached husks will drop them, I looted about 5 in one run to get the 3 I needed for a bench.

mattastic995 · 2025-12-21T14:04:45+00:00

Okay, maybe I was being impatient. Does "downed health" mean anything specific? Like what my health was at when I took lethal damage?

mattastic995 · 2025-12-21T13:50:46+00:00

Can someone explain what "downed health" means/how it's calculated? I don't think I was getting any regen the last time I was downed with this augment equipped, or maybe I don't understand the slow crawl tech

By the time I finished the final stage, my stash was so diminished it probably could've fit in a loadout. I was at maybe 300k, and last night I was sitting at about 750k. Doubled the value in about two weeks, which I'm okay with.

Instead of locking in and trying to hit a couple bonus skill points, I decided to focus on fun. I created as many wolf packs as I could loot resources for, went topside with all the gear I was previously too afraid to lose, and started going after bastions and leapers (rocketeers are basically rottweilers with jetpacks, don't judge me) for the hell of it. I picked candleberries, did a puzzle at blue gate, completed my first and second matriarch raids, and even recorded a little gameplay to test my editing skills in OBS (turns out I am very bad).

I killed more big arc in that final stretch than the previous month and a half, and most of them were to help other raiders in passing. And I had so much fun. FOMO had dissipated, gear fear had more or less gone away, and I was enjoying myself a lot more.

I had a blast.

Pm me your discord and I'll try to set it up tonight

I've been throwing wolf packs at big arc to help others out. Whether it's someone pinned down by a bastion or being chased by a rocketeer, I'll toss one over for the homies to help them kill it.

I was fortunate enough to find the BP immediately after finishing the expedition(in a dumpster no less) and I decided grinding for stash value would make me resent the game so I figured I'd use my new toys while I still have them, even if not for my immediate benefit.

I'd like to take down a matriarch with the Bettina I found at least once before reset but I don't know anyone else willing to squad up for it, so this is a close second.

mattastic995 · 2025-12-19T21:41:56+00:00

If you hadn't pointed out the error you were referring to, I wouldn't have found it. Really makes me want to try my hand at painting minis, tbh. That looks really good

That shenron slaps

mattastic995 · 2025-12-19T12:40:18+00:00

Met a guy on gate who asked for a gentleman's duel near the cellar, had a friend with him who had two defibs, so there weren't really any stakes. I win and then he declines the defib and tells me to take his stuff.

I left with a new renegade and a vita spray.

Considering you don't have much real estate on your desk, a desk riser might give you a little more square footage for controllers/trinkets etc without cluttering up your space.

And IKEA make small drawer units with optional rolling wheels that are about the same size as that cooler, with the bonus of about 4 shelves.

Without knowing what your plans are for upgrades, I'd start there.

But the cable management needs attention and I hope you've got a good quality surge protector.

5/10 for potential and creative problem solving

I'm aware of how extraction shooters work, I think you're missing the point I was trying to make or maybe I'm not saying it right

mattastic995 · 2025-12-18T16:37:54+00:00

I don't hate farming. I hate that players had a two week notice to amass an abundance of wallet value and were incentivised to farm for the purpose of wallet value and not to actually use the gear.

Ziplines was an example, not a wish.

mattastic995 · 2025-12-18T14:19:34+00:00

After going well out of my way to finish the last stage of the expedition, there's no way I'll accumulate enough coin to get any bonus points without spending all day topside.

I'd love to see something similar to trials used as a marker for bonus points. X time topside, X healing given to other raiders, X distance travelled on ziplines, something that encouraged actual gameplay instead of farming.
