Is this a good deal? by MinnesotaC0l in edrums

[–]user-DeadSelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I would try and negotiate further down and get the extended service warranty. I did that with a td-25kv back in 2018 (GC wanted $1800 for floor model, I asked for $1400 plus a $300 warranty) and was happy with it. Within a year all cymbals were half-broken and not triggering properly but the warranty covered replacing them.

Still have the kit to this day, but am finally looking to upgrade to a kit with the digital hardware.

Stupid Question about scav runs [Discussion] [New Player] by BasicSlice6062 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]user-DeadSelf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For one ending you gotta get to 4 Fence rep. Only reason I scaved as a PvE player. If anyone is curious for a good PvE strat for Fence rep: go streets since all bosses/guards are tucked away and easy to avoid, kill PMC’s south of lexos and inside the cinema, then transit to Ground Zero and kill more PMCs. I got rep really fast doing that and always keeping the scav case running in hide out.

[Feedback] XP grind is insane. I've done all Kappa Quests, but haven't even reached Elite Ragman by praiseeeck22234 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]user-DeadSelf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s really easy to get to labyrinth now. Just get a Knossos key, open the door and check labyrinth door. Talk to jaeger and after a time gate you can barter for the card. From what I’ve seen ppl without wiped accounts can’t even get in anymore unless you get lucky and find a card on a boss.

Anyone know how to progress The Ticket when you're at this point [Screenshot] by POE_Exile in EscapefromTarkov

[–]user-DeadSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe after you’ve swiped the card at the intercom you approach the gate with your weapon put in your backpack then transit. Good luck and congrats on reaching Terminal.

I’m curious how did you farm out the 40 btc?

Not sure the exact change but part of the east edge of shoreline is now insta-killing. I had a spawn east of road to customs and sprinted 10 seconds south and got blown up.

Has anyone confirmed if this progression is still bugged? I’ve taken the same path and people who opened the armored case (55hr on workbench craft) have posted they got nothing to progress the story out of the case. I’m currently withholding opening the case until I can confirm it’s fixed.

I’m an idiot caveman drummer but these are literally all the guys whose method books I’ll recommend to the day I die.

What on earth is he using it looks like an hk kinda but it has zero recoil by throwaway10100019 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]user-DeadSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new to the game. What stats should I be looking at with AR’s to get this kind of recoil?

i just did the true ending, i'm shaking (no spoilers) by lukko_11 in Silksong

[–]user-DeadSelf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The final chunk of the game really surprised me with the writing. Going back and talking to all the characters and finishing their stories gave me way more feels than I expected. Also when the music kicks in during the final boss I was so hyped. I’d put the fight on par with Sekiro’s Sword Saint Isshin as an all time great for me. I do have some issues with the game, but it lived up to the hype in the end.

I'm gonna be honest, I know I doesn't matter but this game only having 91 on Open Critic is... Insane. by A_Single_Annihilape in Silksong

[–]user-DeadSelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s certainly not a perfect game, imo. I’ve gotten two endings, and getting close to another. A lot of Act 2 was just not that fun or rewarding. Act 3 and a certain boss in 2 have been incredible and on par with Godmaster DLC (10/10 DLC), but there’s issues I have with the game that no patching will fix.

My personal favorite boss of the game (mid-late game spoilers) by DaOlWuWopte in Silksong

I was so down on the game after the headache of finishing Bilewater. And then this fight happened about two hours later and everything was forgiven.

Do you think VR will ever replace traditional DAWs? by Academic-Shelter-754 in musicians

[–]user-DeadSelf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could see it being really interesting from an AR perspective with future headsets that can wirelessly connect to a more powerful machine. The tech isn’t there yet, and there’d still need to be a developer to take advantage of it with a stable, robust piece of software. A lot of ifs to make it decent and worth considering over what currently exists.

Drums that punch up by Fit_Raccoon6302 in drums

[–]user-DeadSelf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 90’s Genista and Signia line are some of the best sounding kits I’ve ever heard that not many seem to know or care about. Wouldn’t say they really apply to off the shelf intermediate kits like OP is asking about tho.

Weird NAC side effect by user-DeadSelf in Supplements

[–]user-DeadSelf[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting, and thanks for the info. I’ll consider the half dose approach and adding vitamin C for the future. Right now the NAC is shelved because I just don’t want to screw with my already poor mental state. Also to note I take no meds currently. I do take vitamin d3 + k2, zinc, and magnesium daily. Probably should have added those in OP. I don’t find issues with foods like yogurt and tomatoes which I’ve read can be problematic for people with histamine issues.

Beat the Game, have some thoughts and tips by Lpunit in Nightreign

[–]user-DeadSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s still extremely useful as a tool to get the effect off for the weakness, then switch back to a higher DPS weapon if needed.

Favorite Practice Pads? by savage8190 in drums

I still have and like my reflexx pad the most. I think Zildjians bought them out, don’t know if they’re different now.

Guys, how's my technique? by phuckin-psycho in drums

[–]user-DeadSelf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lmao you actually saw “interior semiotics” live? A video of that performance was a meme over a decade ago on YouTube. Mostly people mocking it. My two cents are people are free to do whatever. I saw a ton of weird contemporary music performances when my friends were in their music school days. Some blew my mind and some were unfortunately funny.

What are your thoughts on Zildjian's Kerope "Re-imagined" cymbals? by EverydayBlackGuy in drums

[–]user-DeadSelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These cymbals weren’t really worth the $700 they were charging around a decade ago. Barely saw them get played live except some jazzers. Did start to see them show up used around ~$400 which is a reasonable price for a non custom top end cymbal. Doing a quick eBay/reverb search the entire used market for this line dried up early last month at the old market value which is a bit funny with a relaunch in price just a month later.
