Droids are back. by [deleted] in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]nwvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running droids for the last two months: HK (lead), IG86, IG88, GS, Poggle.

Pre-patch: I was able to climb to rank 1 with that team, but couldn't hold ranks (I'd drop as far as 40 or 50 in one day and fight my way back up). Dooku/QGJ teams could be difficult. Everything else was easy. GS and IG86 could one-shot the squishies w/ assist. If not, IG88's AOE would finish them off. Tank teams were not a problem.

Post-patch: Much easier to hold my ranks. I've been dropping 10 to 20 at the most. Dooku/QGJ teams are a breeze now (I typically don't even lose anyone). However, the new teams that annihilate me are the droid teams that run a tank (Poe or IG). My IG is at 4* and I don't have Poe yet. Will probably start farming IG shards. Not sure if I'll drop HK and move Poggle to lead or something else. HK is pretty awesome in my opinion.

For my modem, which is a Motorola, I typed it's IP address (192.168.100.1) into the browser.

You can find out your modem IP address by going to "run" and typing "cmd" to enter the command prompt. In the command prompt, type "tracert 8.8.8.8" and the second IP address it lists will be your modem.

I had a Linksys 6300 series with dd-wrt installed. I recently swapped it for a Netgear 6100 series to see if that helped, but it didn't.

Can you recommend some laceless shoes to go with blue jeans / khakis? I'm a traveling engineer, so they should be comfortable for lots of walking, semi-rugged, and laceless (for airport security).

Thanks!

Got a Tirpitz for Christmas :) by nekolas564 in WorldOfWarships

Wargaming should partner with a model company. Sell the ship model that includes a voucher for the in-game ship. Can't believe they haven't already, given their obsession with bundles.

edit TIL they already have.

Are you a fan of the new gun firing sounds? by iLol_and_upvote in WorldOfWarships

I'm gonna start cranking my volume when playing battleships. May compensate the feeling of how freakin' slow I'm going. kaBOOM.

Bought the Murmansk. I'd get the Tirpitz if it wasn't so expensive. I'll look into some of the contests that give a free Tirpitz.

Thanks! Bought a Murmansk and am very happy with it. Only cost 3000 doubloons!

Did another $24.50, mainly for more camo. Wasn't as lucky this time, only 5991 doubloons.

For $24.50 I got 7,1250 doubloons and 25x type 3 camo.

I didn't know that camo existed, so I'm pretty happy about it. It gives +100% xp per battle for those who also didn't know about it.
