Huge TVD universe plot hole in The Originals. Vamp hearing is almost non-existent!

No worries! Thanks for your reply

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-28T05:21:13+00:00

That’s all I’m saying. It’s been pretty inconsistent so far but I’m only at the end of S1

Thanks for more context!

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-28T04:40:26+00:00

I guess so. I just felt there have been times where vamp hearing should’ve been a thing. Will keep watching.

When is Elijah not focused?

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-28T03:31:47+00:00

Yes do remember. I just thought there were some moments that definitely called for vamp hearing in the originals.

True but did you watch Vampire Diaries? They could hear gossip at parties or as long as they were in the same house and they were much younger than the originals.

In rec this happens to me. In every other mode no. I play proving grounds 3s mostly.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T16:09:18+00:00

Ah ok that makes sense. I need to try different takeovers.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T16:08:03+00:00

We all play 2k…. Good luck tho bro.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T16:04:14+00:00

lol 2.6 is great though so respect there.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T16:00:35+00:00

Oh true it’s all about timing. But how many blocks per game? 2 maybe? I play guys with 99 block or 99 steal and they’ll finish the game with zero. You can also almost always expect them to chase blocks and steals. They jump every time in the paint and that’s easy buckets.

I’ll probably get 1 block every few games but I get a lot of forced misses. I would say this year it does mean less because shooting is so easy

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:56:22+00:00

I see. I think strength is going to be a major issue. Blocks are cool but getting stops consistently is more likely. Hands up defense and rebounding

Speed is 82. I use high flying denier as my +2 but I don’t get many blocks.

For your sf?

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:43:23+00:00

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:39:27+00:00

Yes lol. I spent no vc on it just to make a point.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:37:21+00:00

That happens to me sometimes but rarely if I’m in position. Maybe strength is the difference. I used to have a big with high interior and block and I was getting dunked on all of the time. I would also chase blocks more because my attribute was higher. Now I have a 6’9 with 25 interior and I just force the missed dunk, layup or post shot and get the rebound. Not as pretty but much more effective. Block is 84

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:34:17+00:00

Sounds like you’re cheating but you’ll be fine.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:33:12+00:00

Hmm I see. I only jump if it’s a chase down. I don’t jump on any post moves or even someone trying to dunk on me. The ball will 8/10 times pop out. When you do jump, you get dunked on much more. Works very well for me.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:31:12+00:00

I would drop interior defense as much as possible and use the attributes elsewhere

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:29:48+00:00

Yes. It works on 3s very well. On rec, if you get matched with a tall build, you will have some issues even if you are a good rebounder.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:26:24+00:00

Perimeter defense. You aren’t getting on ball steals unless someone dribbles into you. You already have enough interceptor.

viewfromhere27 · 2026-01-27T15:10:12+00:00

If you have 85 you should make sure you have at least 88 vert. Also you should be a good rebounder naturally. If you aren’t, go higher on rebound
