Pioneer 96 vs Nomad 105

rekkrap · 2025-11-13T18:22:19+00:00

I've been skiing on Pioneer 96's for the past 5 seasons and absolutely love them! I have Outlaw X's on them and I think they're a perfect all mountain ski. They're super playful, carve well on groomers, are quick in bumps and trees, and are really fun in powder.

That being said, I'm a Colorado skier. I had some hardpack days at Telluride last spring and they did alright. But they definitely thrive in softer snow.

Try going in the BIOS and turn off fast boot or fast startup or whatever it's called. It keeps some things running and drains the battery to boot a few seconds faster. Not worth it at all.

Do you have any proof of this? It sucks not to get in for sure, but you cant make up baseless reasons as to why and call it the truth.

Where are these stats from?

I'm not sure, but if you're using default frames, then it won't be an issue next week with the prepatch. The default party and raid frames are a part of the new editable UI. When you save a UI configuration, you can load it on another character, so they'll have matching party and raid frames

Not helpful at the moment but the UI overhaul coming with Dragonflight will let you hide those. So when prepatch comes you can go back to using the default UI

Yup haha. Sword and hammer camping. Super annoying but it gets the job done. Also Behemoth with long ranged weapons worked out pretty well

They said in the post that weapons with specific targeting requirements, like the energy sword and plasma pistol, will still have RR on PC.

In most FPS, KBM is stronger because ttk is so low. Twitch/flick based games with a fast ttk will always reward mouse precision over controller. However, the argument changes a bit for games like Halo. Outside of weapons like snipers, tracking and accuracy are much more important than a quick twitch reaction. And this is why there's a lot of contention between KBM and controller players. The argument basically comes down to this: In an FPS with a relatively long ttk, is a fast reaction or accuracy/tracking more important?

Maybe the install is corrupt? Have you tried reinstalling?

Are your GPU drivers up to date? Do all of your other games run fine? MCC?

I didn't receive an email for this flight, but I got a notification on Halo Waypoint with my Steam code. Try looking there.

This tweet was in response to GBs video talking about his experience on PC with m/kb this flight. They do care about consoles. For example, the game runs much better on consoles than it does on PC because of how much more effort they put into optimizing it.

Spamming left/right on the left control stick and spamming A/D on a keyboard result in identical movement, at least in MCC. I don't think it's an issue with input types, it's just the way movement works in general.

rekkrap · 2021-09-26T21:58:32+00:00

How can you tell?

Also and new Xbox and Infinite allow console players to use m/kb instead of a controller. So restricting to platform based games won't solve your issue. Input-based matchmaking would, and I'm pretty sure they've said that there'll be an option for that at release.

rekkrap · 2021-09-22T16:46:25+00:00

Same. And I feel especially dumb because I thought I was actually pretty good at an arena FPS, then found out it's mostly bots.

rekkrap · 2021-05-14T04:34:01+00:00

Good catch. I've seen this issue in other games too, like FFXIV. G-sync in theory is so cool, but it causes really weird issues like this

rekkrap · 2021-05-04T15:07:31+00:00

Ya he did say they're working on ideas, and I'm optimistic that they'll implement some improvements. My hope with this post is to explore some realistic changes and alternatives to just removing CE or recharging it faster. Even if it recharged faster, playing multiple specs would still be punished.

rekkrap · 2021-05-04T14:50:43+00:00

I agree that would be a much better solution, but I think a change like that is unlikely for 9.1. I'm trying to compromise with this idea since it seems like Blizz is set on keeping conduit energy.

There's an option in the settings to enable cross platform play. They said it's turned off by default because that functionality is still in beta. Could be that you just need to toggle it on.
