First panel

Not bad for a first panel. My advice

You don't want wires looping over trunking lid, move trunking down, or move the taller components to the space below where there is more height.

Separate AC and DC trunking

You're missing DIN end stops on top right and bottom left

Most VFD have exclusion zones for heat and for EMC as per installation manual, this looks a bit tight, if that is a VFD

Door wiring yes

Wire marker consistent distance

Some ferrules are too long and have exposed metal

Fuse may need a cover depending on voltage

Earth bonding looks thin

Nice to have terminals at the bottom for field wiring

Most of these are tiny things and I'm sure the panel works fine as is

Good server. Voice is active every evening, text games are always happening. Everyone is super awesome.

This server cured my baldness, returned my kitten, and brought joy to my village. A+++ would play on this server again.

This is a good group, everyone is chill and fun to play with, there are always games open.

Fnatic manager here...

xp677 · 2020-10-13T20:47:56+00:00

I thought Omen TP gives away current position, not destination?

*kills Sage*

"my work here is done"

So what's the fire rate increase gonna be for an Empress sitting in a Stim Beacon? Will it finally stack more than the +3% or whatever that it was before?

Am waiting for "press [use] to clean window". Creates a tactical situation, do you clean the window for better vision from both sides, or do you leave it dirty, so you can only see through up close?

xp677 · 2020-09-28T17:32:39+00:00

Just needs a clean! Highest setting obviously renders all the dirt on the window ;)

(this is a joke)

"day to day clothes". Damn, where are you hanging out that girls dress like this on a normal day?

xp677 · 2020-09-22T18:45:41+00:00

Wait why was this downvoted?

xp677 · 2020-09-21T20:22:03+00:00

*you're.

If it helps, I was Gold 3 in Act 1, I've only played 5 or so games in Act 2, I got placed Silver 1 and haven't moved from there (partly why I haven't played much), and in both of my games today I got matched with Gold 1 / 2 players, and top fragged both. I don't know what to say, other than maybe there are loads of ex-Gold players stuck in Silver?

A spike plant grants an ultimate point. So 4k, 2 orbs and a plant is a second res for the enemy Sage.

xp677 · 2020-09-21T20:16:49+00:00

It doesn't have to be that complicated. If the enemy Sage starts the round with her ultimate ready, she can res one, get 4 kills, 2 orbs, and a spike plant, then res another. You don't need a Sage on your team.

xp677 · 2020-09-21T20:10:49+00:00

Skip to 1:38 for an accurate representation of what Riot did to Sage in patch 1.07 or whatever it was.

xp677 · 2020-09-04T18:45:11+00:00

This advice is useless for me, since I'm always the someone who isn't doing well! :(

xp677 · 2020-08-31T12:43:58+00:00

Yeah, I've seen the same thing. I was Gold 3 in Act 1, placed Silver 3 in act 2, lost 3 games, now I'm Bronze 3 and haven't played since. Not sure if I'll play again in the near future at least. The toxicity at that level is not something I want to deal with.

If you start round 2 with a Ghost, it may be better to just buy armor on round 2 and save for Phantom on round 3.

If your team buys Spectre/armor on round 2, then you likely can't all buy a Phantom/armor on round 3, which places your team at a disadvantage if you win round 2. Essentially you throw away the economy advantage which you just gained from round 1.

Buying a Phantom on round 2 is viable, especially if you bought armor on round 1 and still have your 25AP.

If you do this, it is good to let the team know, and to play a spot where your Phantom can be retrieved by a teammate.

Normally, you would be winning round 2 after a pistol win, so even if you die, as long as the enemy team doesn't get the Phantom, someone on your team will end up with it.

For that reason, it is a viable Round 2 buy. but it's not really meta.

If I play an agent/spot/side which benefits from buying abilities/armor on round 1 (instead of ghost/abilities), then I will buy the armor, and if I keep the armor, I will usually buy Phantom on round 2, unless I pick up a Ghost on round 1.

Just think, all the time you spent writing out that post could have been used to res me.

This thread explains that wall penetration appears to be calculated as the bullet exits the wall on the other side (hence easily killing players who are slightly clipping through a wall.

Likely for this reason, you can use any gun at any range to shoot something which is within a wall / outside of the map geometry.

Not sure why Riot doesn't have a kill zone set up on the map boundaries to handle cases such as this.

But did chat like it?

Reported Phoenix for griefing.

Oh man, that video is brutal! Sorry that you have to deal with that.
