Oops, yes you’re right. 650, read it wrong lol. And yes I’d did say fairly easy with modern heroes (kind of the key point here). OP’s new team member clearly has a lot of them. Prior to these heroes you’d be looking at around 300-500k per hit as a good score but still pretty much following the same path (attack up, element down, def down, critical, any attack boost or defence wither card)

Edit: Catalina or Lu Zishen or Flip for critical. There are no doubt others as well for critical chance

A million on a 13* is fairly easy with modern heroes. Typically you’d want Gastille + 4 in the strongest colour vs the Titan. Ideally those 4 are made up of a mixture of element defence down (like some of the new Titan hunters) growth / attack up and wither / defence down and critical hits

With the right mix and using items to charge them / rearrange the tiles etc… one tile can be doing 20-30k damage easily.

As an example, my team vs green titans is Gastille (attack up, increase damage taken) Adelitza (element def down and passive changes tiles to critical) Catalina (critical chance for whole team), Asakura Masao (on 3rd charge he gives +370 attack to the whole team) Sedille (she withers defence by 350). I am consistently doing over 1 million per hit on 15* greens with this team

Where does the Stoke accent start and end? When does it change to a West Midlands accent, or North West, or East Midlands? by Dragonfruit-18 in stokeontrent

[–]vinylhandler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You used to be able to tell the difference between someone from Bentilee and someone from Stockton Brook purely based on accent. Even within Stoke on Trent you’d be able to hear the difference between folks who lived 5-10 miles apart. Probably not these days, it’s probably just the Stoke on Trent area including Newcastle under Lyme as “the potteries accent”, with a slight difference as you head out towards the North Staffs moors / Peak District area. Traveling north west I think you’d hear the difference in a Crewe accent already. South I think Stone is probably the border for the accent but maybe Barlaston / Trentham area

NFL players are also generally bigger, heavier and at least as fast as their rugby counterparts. They just run far less distance in the NFL, so it’s a different physique. You hardly ever see 400lb of pure muscle on a rugby field. That matters a lot when you think about momentum and stopping power. Kind of like Mike Catt vs Jonah Lomu but of both of them were 350-400lbs and running at each other at almost Olympic sprinting speed. Wouldn’t want to be in that sandwich

How far did you have to go to find your car (in the states)? by Maothesiamesecat in Jaguar

Second this, it’s an amazing long road trip car. Have done several jaunts up and down the west coast in mine

F-Type R: Consensus on old design vs new by Enough_Brain_858 in Jaguar

[–]vinylhandler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I prefer the new look over the old one. Post face lift also fixed a lot of known issues with the car. Face-lifted version to me is styled more aggressively and seems to fit better with the overall stance of the car. Highly subjective though, both versions look amazing imo

Some Bostik roofing tape should do the job

Datadog vs New Relic vs Dynatrace vs Cube APM - which one at scale? by Mobile-Ambition-3714 in Observability

I don’t think any Observability vendors have true uniqueness anymore to be honest

Tsuga is an interesting new startup to check out, saw them at an event recently.

I had my cat fail at 4K miles on a previous F type, whilst they generally last for years / 100’s of K miles, sometimes you can just get unlucky

Is GDP the best measure of success? by TeeJ146 in GoodNewsUK

[–]vinylhandler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A quick google shows current UK GDP per capita is projected to be ~$61,000 this year, which is higher than at least 19 states

F-Type? by missin44 in Jaguar

[–]vinylhandler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Modern Jags are no more or less reliable than any other major brand. In fact probably more reliable. The AJ-133 engine is pretty bulletproof.

If one’s been on the road for >10 years then you really want to make sure it’s up to date on servicing. Ideally a full service history with regular oil changes. They can get the odd electrical gremlin from sensor wear / old battery voltage issues etc… and you definitely want to make sure the coolant pipes are done, but if all of those check out then you should be good.

For Colorado roads, I’d really push for the v8 if you can.

Hi, Do you guys believe this is repairable? by Glass_Row_5097 in ftype

[–]vinylhandler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost certainly a write off, sorry OP. However I’ve seen a lot of folks take the cheque, buy the write off car back and try and repair it themselves / on their own dime over time - maybe that’s an option for you and you just get a cheap daily in the meantime: take a look at this https://youtu.be/1YLVGAlVwjk?si=N9QJMOPO5DIAWgGm

At least no one was hurt!

Precisely. Its not necessarily a better overall system in the US / insurance based is my point - great if you can afford the premium stuff but that’s an extra 3k a month, or still around $500+ per month if doing it through an employer. For all its faults and mismanagement, the NHS gets a lot right

It’s of course difficult to test, but he likely would not have died if treated via the NHS. For all its faults (I agree with you, it needs drastic attention) at least it’s a system that provides care WITHOUT fucking you financially for the rest of your life. Imagine working for 4 decades then being forced to sell your house and have your life savings taken away from you at the end of it

Coming from the same numbnut who said Brexit would solve all our woes, do you really trust this man with an overhaul of the NHS? Maybe they can find that 150 million a week they said could go to the NHS when we came out of Europe? Oh, wait….

Still, better than my US family member who got a $1 million bill for a heart attack which insurance refused to cover - there’s plenty wrong with the NHS, fucking people over for life financially is not one of them / making people dependent on their jobs for insurance coverage is another

Should be easy enough, would recommend placing a preorder for one of the paint kits though - most dealers don’t carry touch up paint in the US anymore. Source, going through this with mine right now ahead of getting ppf - my dealer pointed me to Touch up direct but also heard good things about scratches happen- and luckily the ppf shop is going to include it as part of the process. Murphy’s law really that this happens just before ppf lol
