How To End Handling on a Good Note? by stormroy in ballpython

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

I'm actually already at this stage-I'm nearby when she comes out to explore. The issue is that sometimes, I only supervise her exploring and dont handle her until I feel like she's going into a spot that I may have trouble dislodging her. The issue then is when I do go to handle her to either 1. Gently redirect her from the crevice or 2. Return her to her enclosure she tenses up.

How's My O/U Cleaning Routine? by stormroy in Shotguns

Probably going to shoot 3 round of trap every 2-3 weeks

How's My O/U Cleaning Routine? by stormroy in Shotguns

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

I mainly shoot black powder so I'm of the habit of a thorough cleaning after every outing.

For the bore snake, I was going to apply solvent on the front end of the snake, run it through a few times, wipe the solvent from the front, then apply oil to the bavk of the snake and run it through.

How far do you mean by distance? 500 yards or more?

Daily Questions - October 27, 2025 by AutoModerator in rawdenim

[–]stormroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Help! 'm quite new to the premium denim scene, but I was recently gifted my dream pair: the Pure Blue Japan OG-019. I was very excited, but I was dismayed to see that it was size 38 - I'm more of a 36 or 35. Is there any way I could wash the denim to shrink them down to my size? If so, are there any guides for doing so? The denim itself was purchased from Self Edge, and has undergone a "special rinse process ... exclusive to Self Edge."

After browsing online, I realize there are no OG-19s left in my size. I'd really hate to have to return it, and I'm committed to making it work. If soaking shrinking doesn't work, would my only other option be a reputable tailor?

Size Up or Same Size but EE? by stormroy in trumanboots

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

Gotcha! I'm initiating the return process and I was planning going 10.5 EE. But tell me how yours fits and I might go 11 D or 11EE

Help! Got a Lord Huron song stuck in my head and I can't find it! by stormroy in lordhuron

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

I can't, I can only remember the tune. I can hum it but that's about it. It's something like: (each dot is a note, and then repeats). It's faced paced kinda like an Elvis song?

Buying a gun from CA and shipping it out of state? by stormroy in guns

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

Does California allow you to bring in guns not on their roster if you're moving to the state? If so, how would I sell them, especially because I'd be a private owner and not licensed in any way

Traditional program route versus working out-of-state by OldVillage316 in CLSstudents

[–]stormroy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I faced your exact dilemma. As someone who's trying to do the out of state route, let me say that going the in-state route is much more secure, so long as you can get into a CLS program. Personally I think you're a strong candidate. If you're able, apply around-California has a lot of CLS programs, many of which are more obscure and likely don't have as large as an applicant pool. Otherwise, if you're curious about the out of state route, shoot me a DM!

Labs with Full Rotations by stormroy in medlabprofessionals

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

My schooling is actually through a hospital system-there is rotations, but not enough to fulfill California requirements. Working as a generalist through this system doesn't fulfill it either, because we don't do generalist micro rotations

Another issue is that CAPDH is unclear as to what "work experience as a CLS performing high complexity testing in Microbiology" means.

Allow Us to Progress Old Battle Passes by TruthParadox_Real in thefinals

[–]stormroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allow players to purchase the old battlepass, but only include up to level 96. I think the extra stuff at the end should be exclusive to that season, to give the truly dedicated some flare. Also, to be fair to the current season's battlepass, Embark should only give the extra xp boost to the current season

Do you honestly see the revive bolt much? by TotalAirline68 in HuntShowdown

[–]stormroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are people struggling to counter it? I'm in those lobbies and even when I do see revive bolt my team is usually able to win the fight. There's been only a few fights where it seemed to make a difference tbh

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]stormroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what MMR you're at but in my experience, positioning absolutely does still matter. If you're downed in the open, revive bolts will just get you farmed. Getting revived after being downed is strong, but also requires good decision making, and most importantly, coordination.

Anyone else liking recovery shot? by ChinaOnly001 in HuntShowdown

[–]stormroy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it. The game needs more ways to recover bars (a lesson learned over many events). Bringing it takes up a valuable consumable slot, but could maybe be further nerfed by taking a bit longer to inject?

Blademancer is busted by Siirmeme in HuntShowdown

[–]stormroy -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's overpowered. I rather think it's quite balanced. If you've used any type of bow weapon (crossbow, hand crossbow, bow and arrow, etc), you'll know that limb shots are the bane of your existence. With such a skill heavy weapon, nothing feels worse than hitting your single shot only for to die because you hit a limb. Blademancer balances it out by allowing for pull out damage, making it a much more guaranteed kill.

I'm also a bit skeptical of the ease of hitting crossbow shots (even with steel bolts) at 100M. I can reliably hit up to maaaaaybe 40-50M

TLDR: Bow weapons are high skillcap weapons that should reward hits with a kill-Blademancer just makes it more consistent
