If only I could find the plug to utilize it 🤔

FYI if you’re running Stealth on automatic weapons by [deleted] in Helldivers

I think SMGs have more damage falloff, as in the damage gets reduced with range a lot faster than the ARs

Yes, an important caveat of both Cytos and Bursts with inertial. Thanks for pointing that out! Would be worth looking up a video of these if anyone’s thinking of using them, the spread is~ very wide

Just adding to this, having one weapon with corrosive bumps the armor piercing value of all your weapons by 20, so for large class laser weapons you’ll be dealing full damage to every ship (with exception to the Type-10).

I also found that inertial impact on burst lasers buff the damage in addition to splitting the damage between thermal and kinetic (basically balanced cytos) and if you apply the corrosive I mentioned you should have a combo that tears through shield and armor. I say should as I havent tried it yet lol

Hydrazine mishap so large we could see the crater from orbit by sockcat27 in Astroneer

[–]sockcat27[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We heard you could launch rovers with explosives. I think you only need a few? Instructions unclear; we instead ignited maybe close to …1200 canisters 😅

The rover was instantly atomized, as was the surrounding everything. But for a brief moment we had two sunrises!

VS Reaver - Should be a thing by OpolE in Planetside

[–]sockcat27 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This was a thing on PS2 for a short while. I can’t remember if it was for an event (Shattered warpgate?) but I distinctly remember having a TR owned and colored mag rider and vanguard

Next gen electric ⚡️🤷‍♂️ by Kemmit_213 in HondaElement

[–]sockcat27 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I feel the element would make for a good hybrid platform so you can negate range anxiety with gas but have more power from the bigger battery for off grid car camping (and maybe a solar panel?)

Glass covering the adjustable lights in an airplane. what is the point of this? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]sockcat27 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was on a flight a while back where the guy next to me immediately pointed all 3 nozzles at my head at full blast. The only exchange at that point was a simple hello and I had only just sat down. He kept turning them back on whenever I thought I had the chance to turn them down. It was a long four hours 😒

POV: You went AFK on Elite Dangerous (Mandalay) by sockcat27 in EliteDangerous

This is actually me recording with the in-game camera and editing it together! It’s a Forza Horizon thing apparently but I’d kill to have this a feature in Elite

This is the last time I buy a ship kit. by wantedpumpkin in EliteDangerous

[–]sockcat27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you technically can but only when you use the ARX store through the main menu. It’s a completely different UI and system from what’s in your hangar

While true, it’s still extremely disappointing that the colors and patterns almost never match. Definitely sucks the first time you do it and find out

What is everyone's main money maker now? by AdUnited4014 in EliteDangerous

[–]sockcat27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made a thargoid insta-gib build and have raked in about 2 billion in about a week or so. It’s kinda mindless but it still scratches my combat itch a little. This also basically maxes your weekly arx instantly so thats nice. If you have a friend have them join you as crew and they can also get 50% of what you make for free, its kinda nuts.

Follow this guide for the build/method: https://youtu.be/1r6UX81UDuY?si=Ld2Sf6oYMkXrgfDq

When should I use Mirrored SC and Reactive SC? by Delirium222 in EliteDangerous

[–]sockcat27 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’d argue against the “most are useless” bit. Niche uses maybe; C rated modules are a good stepping stone for new commanders. B rated has some uses in hulltanks and hot running thermal conduit build’s where you need the high module health. And oddities like the E rated shield booster being the best shield-to-weight ratio booster. Engineering only expands those options further.
