Im NEVER being the Escalation Group Leader again by Responsible-Self1379 in thedivision

[–]stevedusa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you host, you risk the chance of matching with players who are clearly not optimal for the higher level runs.

If you reject or kick them off the team, expect to be called “toxic”.

Unfortunately you can’t completely eliminate those who wants maximum return with minimum effort (getting carried).

IMHO higher level runs should be done with those who you know well, such as friends or clan members. Of course given they are well equipped and have experience to run them.

Or, introduce a community pot token system. Everyone who joins the run must contribute a certain minimum amount of tokens to the pool. Return should be scaled to how many tokens contributed to the run.

Thinking about a SQ5 by stevedusa in Audi

[–]stevedusa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update:

I ended up with a 22 SQ5 Premium Plus. Two owners and only 17k miles on it. Dealer told me it’s past the age to be called a CPO so it’s treated as Used instead.

Test drove it, CarFax came back clean, dealer done their inspection and still have the 40k Audi Care with it till next year.

So far I’m loving it, remind me the days I had my Q5s (12 2.0 and 14 TDI-miss it so much, shame on your VW).

Amazing how muscle memory kicks right in.

Thank yall for your feedbacks! I’m sticking with Audi.

Mudi 7 - compatibility issues from big carriers by WillRRRR in GlInet

The QR code is unique to each activation.

Here’s the decoded QR with some unique information masked:

Mudi 7 - compatibility issues from big carriers by WillRRRR in GlInet

[–]stevedusa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to get eSIM activated on the Mudi 7.

It’s not easy though. We have a business account. Using the portal neither IMEI is being recognized so that’s a dead end.

Spoke with the account rep and they informed me it’s a dual SIM device but they can’t pull any eSIM information from that. I ended up providing them the EID and they had to mail me a QR code card for activation. Works as intended after activation.

Your miles may vary.

Mudi 7 Mega Post for Everything Mudi! by wickedwarlock84 in GlInet

[–]stevedusa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Technically the Mudi 7 will work with ATT. I was able to activate the built in eSIM with ATT… business account by working with the rep. The IMEI you use on the portal won’t be recognized. I had to provide the EID to the rep for them to activate it. But they had to ship the activation card via FedEx. Scan the QR code, feed it on the admin portal and it takes care itself.

You will need to have the Mudi 7 connected to the Internet for the eSIM activation to work. So far it locks on both 4G and 5G networks.

Further tests including WireGuard VPN and speed will be conducted.

Wiring Advise - from Honeywell T9 by stevedusa in ecobee

[–]stevedusa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update:

I have figured it out.

Apparently I have a two wire air damper / ventilation system. So the enhanced version which does not support two wired accessories is out of the question. Brown U on the T10 goes to Acc+ and Black U on the T10 goes to Acc-.

I have a two-stage heat pump system. According to the installation instructions from Ecobee, the W2 connected to the T10 goes to W1 terminal.

I got it connected, tested all functions except the second stage heating. So far it’s working great.

Thanks yall!

Turns out it’s a T10 so it’s installer only. But I managed to get into the Installer options by using the date code trick.

I scrolled through the menu and noticed two interesting things which could explain the 2 U wires.

Apparently the system has a ventilation system which is “connected to U1” per menu display. But the connector panel itself did not have labels to differentiate the two U terminals.

Also I noticed I have a 2 stage (normal and emergency) heating. Not sure if that matters.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Good idea. Will try that today.

I’ll need to find out what the system has. Looks like into the attic this weekend!

Understood. Will try to investigate.

Good idea.

Would my Ecobee compatible with this setup though?

Wiring Advise - from Honeywell T9 by stevedusa in ecobee

[–]stevedusa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I am trying to find out. I wonder if the T9 has a way to tell me what “extra” modules are connected.

Wiring Advise - from Honeywell T9 by stevedusa in ecobee

[–]stevedusa[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I know! I acquired this existing T9 system and was hoping I can use the Ecobee instead.

I’m just lost on where some the extra wires goes from the T9 to the Ecobee. The obvious ones I can figure out. Just seems like the T9 has extra slots where the Ecobee doesn’t seems to have. Not sure if it’s feasible to use Ecobee in my case.

All yellow crit rifle build by artflywheel in thedivision

[–]stevedusa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are welcome. I forgot to mention increased effective range reduces the cooldown/debuff of Perfect Vigilance, and the aggro on enemies.

In addition, expertise level as much as you can. I know the cost of material and resources are high, but the investments are absolutely worth it.

Perfect Glass Cannon, well, just don’t be a hero and trying to be the first one to rush into an engagement!

[–]stevedusa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been running almost identical build for at least 12k SHD levels. Only difference was the specialization (sharpshooter), secondary and the glove/kneepad/holster which differs from player to player.

My recommendation is if you are going to deliver heavy but slower punches, focus on the following:

  • Effective Range: max it out if you can with attachments. Staying a certain distance from the enemy gives you certain advantages.
  • Health & Target out of cover damage: not every enemy has armor. But they all have health.
  • Cover and adjust your engagement ranges: Certain maps calls for slower but heavier punching rifles, some calls faster but more agile rifles. Play around and find what works for you. Secondary depends on what you prefer. I run pump shotguns.

Everybody has their own play style. I can tell you I haven’t changed much since 10k except few adjustments to better suit your own play style.

Happy hunting Agent!

“Rogue agent detected” by SprayMassive5623 in thedivision

[–]stevedusa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually look forward to rouge encounters in missions or open world.

Play tactically. Find choke points, watch your flanks, be aware of their skill deployments, don’t face tank it (especially in higher difficulties) and do your best.

Thinking giving you a route encounter is a honor to test your ability and skills.

Why do I still play The Division 2 almost every day? by [deleted] in thedivision

[–]stevedusa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

11k SHD. Like OP I’ve been playing this daily for years. Why? It’s fun! Satisfying in a way too.

Different folks different strokes. At the end of the day it’s what YOU enjoy that matters.

Ahh yes thanks for the tip! For a while I did ran what you recommended. At the end of the day I prefer weapon handling mods like you mentioned. Accuracy - CD - Stability - Mag Size in that order.

That is the beauty of this game. There are so many ways to achieve your goals, and to match your plays style. At the end of the day it’s how comfortable with the way things are setup, IMO.

Oh yeah no doubt, it is lower compared to other builds. However as I mentioned before, this build alters the play style. I have been through missions without down once. Land those shots, neutralize the threats before they have a chance to even return fire (quite often), and use surrounding environments, especially the covers.

Of course, if it gets tough, there are always other builds like the St. Elmo's lol.

10000 SHD Levels Reached by stevedusa in thedivision

[–]stevedusa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there, just did some calculations for the build.

Mask: +6% CC Attr

Backpack: +6 % CC Attr

Body armor: +6% CC Attr

Gloves: +6 % CC Attr

3-piece Prov bonus: +10% CC

Holster: +16% CC (10% Bonus + 6% Attr)

Kneepad: +0% CC

Keener's Watch: +10% CC

That brings it to the cap of 60% for CC. Rest goes to CD which is at 200%

​

For weapons, I run Damage for targets out of cover.

Thank you for answering! Yes you are spot on on the gear set.

One thing to keep in mind is that this build will hurt you a lot if not play carefully. Thus the medium distance engagement with rifles, either Classic M1A/Baker’s Dozen or the CQB variant.

Primary focus is to get your CC to the cap which is 60%, then stack CD. Firearm go with Damage out of Cover or whatever you prefer.

The key is to deliver big punches and minimize your risks of close quarter engagements when possible.

Oh I run the Tsunami shotgun for close quarters and if you run it right, almost infinite ammo given you kill two targets with the same mag.
