I like to use various materials without having to stop and think about swapping a nozzle.

Yeah absolutely, when tuned properly it gives me the best prints. Mine is a REVO, so probably as slightly different user experience. I have a full sock I cast covering it, I get the cleanest silky smooth prints from it, and never have to worry about what I'm pushing through it.

I do a lot of CF prints, they come out exquisitely. But it mainly prints PETG over and over again, without issue (once calibrated and properly dialed in that is!).

I'm still having issues. How did you tune it in? What did you actually do?

With PLA I can only get the first layer to stick if I have the nozzle temp at 230 and bed at 65. Then second layer on drop to 215. This kind of works, but with small prints sometimes it still detaches from the build plate. I've tried smooth, textured, and the fancy holographic plates. All about the same. Have not tried glue stick, and I really don't want to. Have never used it before on any printer and never needed it. Almost ready to break down and try it. 

What could possibly cause this? I can't even imagine a reason.

After spending nearly 20 hours trying to solve this issue along with some of the other issues posted here I am convinced my nozzle is cursed. Either that or the people who don't experience problems all have some magic setting that I can't seem to find. I gave up, obxidian HF 0.4 works great. Still dissapointed though, I haven't been able to find any post from people who had the issues say what exactly fixed it.

These nozzles are neat, same with the ruby nozzles. From what I've seen, they often fail when the insert comes loose, not when the insert wears out.
