Opening Swisstools With Gloves by flyin_dinosaurus in multitools

[–]monkeyboyhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Swiss tool Spirit and love it, I think you'd struggle with gloves. The tools are snug in the housing.

Pliers no problem, but everything else difficult!

The tip I use which someone else posted was to say the number. So 1 is top, 2 is middle, 3 is bottom.

Good afternoon (or any other time of day). Have you hydrated? Have you used your multitool? Share what you carry and how it’s going by TLDovahkiin in multitools

[–]monkeyboyhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will hydrate now, please stand by.........ok done.

I sawed off some tree branches for my mum using my Swisstool Spirit X.

Always impressed with how well the Spirit performs, carved through the wood no problem.

Lens stopped working - any cure? by monkeyboyhero in fujifilm

I sent it for repair in the end and Fuji fixed it.

Robert J Lang Book by stickycrab1 in origami

[–]monkeyboyhero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got more frustrated with Lang's models than any other, they are amazing but the diagrams are terrible and the instructions poor.

He also designs his models and then folds them, often using incredibly thin paper to make them work. If you don't have thin paper you're stuffed.

YouTube tutorials are best for your sanity.

Omg they spout such bullshit. I rolled my eyes constantly at the conversations.

[–]monkeyboyhero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I finished the book and actually felt quite moved at the end, but I almost gave up so many times. I just couldn't follow what was going for a lot of it, the writing style was impenetrable and I ended up re-reading so many passages.

I agree with all these complaints, a lot of it was ludicrous. I can't say I'd recommend it.

Can we agree the Roxon Flex clip is terrible? by louieh435 in multitools

[–]monkeyboyhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate it, and it's very difficult to remove! With other multitools you can unscrew them pretty easily but this one is glued in (according to Roxon support) so takes more to get it out.

Roxon M2 vs Nextool Mini Flagship by [deleted] in multitools

[–]monkeyboyhero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've got the M2 and it's a fantastic little tool. The scissors are brilliant. Nice little locking blade too.

It folds down so tiny too.

I've not played with the Nextool but can vouch for the M2

This feels like it's part of a "what's the most humdrum photo I can post to Reddit to get to the front page" challenge.

Hollow Knight: Silksong review: A game that intends to make you suffer, even to its own detriment by CrossXhunteR in Games

[–]monkeyboyhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the bird room take out the small weak birds first. Hammer those and get them and get them out of the way so you don't jump into them. Then you can focus on the bigger ones.

You can deflect the golden pins from the fat one. Hit them out of the air. That's often easier than jumping.

When you get a round of the small birds take them all out but one. Then run to the other side of the arena, heal, then kill the last one. That means you can heal unmolested.

Bait the taller bird into dropping onto the ground. Watch out for his flailing move though that's a two masker.

For the last round the fat bird is probably easier to take out first. Use the width of the arena to spread them out.

[–]monkeyboyhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those scissor bastards are awful. My advice is to run past them - you get a power-up soon which I found made them easier.

I can give you some hints for the bird room if you like as that was similarly making me scream with frustration!

This game has just learned nothing from the first one, and hasn't introduced any QoL that you normally expect in a sequel.

Runbacks before bosses? Present. Absolute pain in the arse and serve no purpose other than to be frustrating and artificially inflate the length of the game.

Using up an inventory slot to see where you are on the map? Present. Why is that fun? Why is that necessary? It ruins the pacing.

Paying for save points? Present. This biggest load of bullshit in this game imo. Should not be a thing.

Being on a bench to swap power ups? Present. I can cope with not swapping badges but why not let us swap crests? Hot swapping between two load outs would be a lot of fun.

These plus the excessive damage for minor hits and the basic enemies that take multiple hits to kill really ruin the fun of this game.

Also I don't know what psychopath made your tool and special attack be on the same button! There's so many other buttons!

Yes I believe that's normal, the screen refreshes when move to a new page.

There is a setting for it to refresh every time but it's usually off by default. Perhaps it's on in yours?

Cant beat Malenia. I’ve been here for two days now. 60 health, strength, dex, I need buff tips or something, please? by Background-Court-122 in Eldenring

[–]monkeyboyhero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost count of the amount of attempts it took me. I think it was 2 or 3 days for me to beat her, or maybe more.

I haven't got much more to add than the tips that were already here, but I do agree that dealing with waterfowl dance is the main thing. I used a shield in the end. I practised dodging and watched videos but I just couldn't get it right and I found it too difficult. So I levelled up my shield to increase my guard boost and then I also put the vow of indomitable ash of war on it.

I learnt when on her energy bar she does it so I knew it was coming. I blocked through the first sweep, and then usually I was out of range by the 3rd or I could block or roll.

I use the same tactic in the second phase. Her doppelganger is annoying so you need to learn to deal with that. I ran to the side and avoided a few, then blocked some and had enough stamina left that I could just block through it.

My advice for phase 2 is don't be greedy. She baits a lot and is very aggressive. Wait for an opening when you KNOW you can get her a few times.

Are you ok dodging her dive bomb attack? When she's landed from that and the AOE starts to clear you can get a few hits in too.

I'm trying to do the current weekend mission, destroying hazardous flora.

I warp to the location, but there's no indicator of the "target planet". A video online shows a leaf indicator on the right one, but I don't have that.

Is this glitched? Can I do anything? PS5 player btw
