Looking for something reliable that I can stick to and get good at. I'm tired of finding something that's fun and effective and then 4 games later I can't take a single duel or win any fight.

I've always been a PVE main but I want something fun to use while going for PVP rewards. I don't really even know what weapons to use, my friends just say use whatever but that's not helpful. I know hand cannon shotgun is good but I've never been very good at it and don't find it fun, but it feels impossible to beat most of the time.

Previously I've just run Dunemarchers and a pulse rifle, something like Vigilance Wing. I'm now trying out Peacekeepers with a Multimach but it's weird to adjust to that type of playstyle and I feel like I have no range. Can I just run an SMG and a pulse?

I also tried out a build I saw with Icefall Mantle and a Slice weapon, which was working very well and was fun.. until it wasn't. Like I said earlier I eventually got into some games where I just couldn't look at anyone without dying instantly, even through frost armor and slice both reducing damage.

Prismatic feels pretty nice with stasis melee, suppressor nade, knockout, and throwing hammers super. Ability wise that feels the most comfortable to me but I don't know if I could be getting more out of a pvp build.

I was talking with my friend about her upcoming wedding and she mentioned that due to budget they won't be able to hire a photographer. My friend knows I've been getting into photography so I said I could take pictures for them, of course for free since I'm not at all a professional. Now she's really excited and sending me photo ideas and stuff.

That's all fine and good, I'm excited too! I've stressed to her many times though that I am *not* by any means a professional, but she has seen my photos before and liked them.

I'm wondering if anyone here with experience shooting these kinds of events can give me any advice? Ever since I started shooting I've been doing everything manually because I like the control it gives me, but I'm considering shooting in automatic for this wedding. I don't want to miss a good photo because I wasnt able to change the exposure in time. I'm also not really used to shooting anything other than landscapes and cityscapes. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I came here for advice on technical things like shooting manual or auto, or for what kind of pictures to take, and stuff like that!

If you're coming here to comment something about my friend or how I shouldn't shoot a wedding for this reason or that, PLEASE KEEP IT TO YOURSELF! Not helpful and frankly incredibly rude.

Might be moving soon and want to decorate where I move in. I don't have any Daft Punk merchandise despite them being one of my favorite acts of all time.

Looking up posters to buy on Google yielded little results. There's practically nothing on Amazon, and their official merch store has like 2 posters that I don't really care for.

Displate seems to have a lot but it also seems like they host AI content and I don't really want to support that.

Is there something I missed? Or is this just something that's hard to find?

Wondering if someone can help me understand this. I main Wuyang and always went for Balance (the one that gives you 30% more healing on your passive stream for 2s when landing your orbs), but with the numbers changes to the passive stream in S1, I've been leaning more towards Overflow.

However, I see that on owperks.gg Balance is still the overwhelmingly popular choice at roughly 80% pickrate across all ranks. To me, this perk seems kind of weak? If you do the math, it only equates to about 4-6 more hps on your passive stream depending on if the target has the global healing debuff applied or not. Is this really that significant? Or is it just that it enables you to focus more on damage, if only slightly?

I know that with Overflow, you shouldn't really ever be using your movement cooldown just to refill your healing resource and ammo. But in those occasions where you need to move and your healing resource is low, is 50% regen not just kind of insane?

Making this post to see if anyone has any sort of insight on this that I've missed or if its mostly just holdover from Balance being the clearly superior choice before the S1 changes. I think I remember KarQ even mentioning that Overflow is looking like a better option in one of his videos, but it's yet to be reflected in perk pickrate stats. So what's up with this?

Just had a game where I got absolutely eviscerated by these two and it felt like there was nothing I could do against it. I mainly play Dva and Ram, both of which felt completely unplayable in the matchup due to me getting blown up the second I popped out of cover. I also play Sig, but they had a really aggro tank who was always just running at me as either Rein or Mauga and I couldnt deal with him and his team at the same time. What do I do about this in future games? Besides just banning Ana, lmao. Im Plat 3 tank if that matters.

She feels extremely oppressive to play against for me, on all roles. Her damage is just absurd and she can play at basically sniper range so she's always safe. I try to dive on Tracer and one body shot forces my recall. Same with Dva, either I spend all my DM trying to get to her or I lose all my hp on the approach. Really, really frustrating hero to play against and I'd appreciate any tips on how to deal with her.
