armour, dodge, mix with barrier?
Main Post:
Hi im playing a fireball build, but i dont know if its better play full armour, full dodge or mix dodge/barrier or armor/barrier, i read in other post thar full barrier its the worst deffense layer.
Any recomendation?
Top Comment:
level 80 in endgame here and I have tried all of these.
Any combination that used barrier, i find, is very very bad.
I would reccomend either going armor with dodge or block. You definitely need armor at a minimum to sustain heavy physical hits and then layer that with dodge or block to increase effect hp.
Global Mi Mix 3 phoning home every 1~2 seconds
Main Post:
Context, I got a global Mi Mix 3 a few days ago. On my network I have a Pi-Hole that allows me to monitor all DNS based traffic on my local network (great to stop your IOT devices such as a TVs, printers, from sending data back, and also block a good chunk of ads on pc/mobile without ad-blockers).
Right now my Mix 3 is just sitting on the counter and this is what I see on the pi-hole: recent queries.
Basically it's trying to send data to data.mistat.intl.xiaomi.com every 2 seconds, sometimes multiple time per second. Even though the phone is just laying there I haven't touched in a couple of hours. From time to time I see an attempt at an ad url as well, but definitely not as often: globalapi.ad.xiaomi.com
Of a total of 7261 requests over the past 3 hours, only 501 did not get blocked.
93.1% of all requests sent from the device are blocked for being either advertisement related or personal data collection.
I know it's a well known fact that total privacy is not to be expected from a Xiaomi device, but at this point I'm actually more worried about battery life... Having a service that proceeds to collect and send data pretty much every second cannot be good for battery life...
Has anyone else noticed similar behavior? I even switched to xiaomi.eu (had to wait to unlock) to see if it would make a difference, I don't see the same ad related traffic (globalapi.ad.xiaomi.com) but the data.mistat.intl.xiaomi.com traffic is pretty much the same.
Would like to know what you guys think, I guess the only real alternative is to switch to something like LOS?
EDIT: as some suggested, it was mostly the fact that the requests were blocked that triggered the Mix 3 to retry every second (throttling those would be a good idea...). I enabled the domain for a couple minutes and then blacklisted it again. That worked for a couple hours, a lot less frequent tries (once every 4-5 minutes). But it's now back to it's regular self, sending request every second or so.
EDIT#2: I'll try to debloat the Global official as someone suggested and see if it makes any difference at all. Also LOS just added the mi mix 3 to their repo which means the build is following soon, might give that a try
EDIT#3: i gave u/jax3rir's debloat suggestion a try, and that fixed a lot of the issues. My full reply. Interestingly it also changed the "usual" mistat domain from "data.mistat.intl.xiaomi.com" to "data.mistat.xiaomi.com"

Shit, that's a lot. Is there a possibility that since it can't reach the server it keeps on trying again and again? Maybe if it could sync every once in awhile there would not be as many attempts.

Top Comment: I like the design. If you are going to have a camera bump, go all the way with it. I think that will sit a bit nicer on a desk too when the bump isn't so lopsided. It sucks to see phones that look this nice but know they are not a real option because they are not sold in my country, they don't have software that comes close to Samsung etc.
My mix with 8 plays is 99th on the global deephouse chart on mixcloud, how is that possible? Is there that little engagement on that site?

Can you mix records with a player online?
Main Post:
Title, the option is only available in the Community(?) Room for now, which is the one for local multiplayer. The patch notes mentions "On the release date for the software, up to two players will be able to interact in local and online play in the Union Room, and you will be able to select the “Battle”, “Trade” and “Mix Records” functions" which should mean Mixing Records is available in the Union Room but I can't find the option at all, I only have Trading, Solo and Duo Battles. I would like to create a group with friends and this would be the only way to do it.
