P1S Print goes Bad after Layer 1

Ive owned my P1S for about 2 years now and everything has been going fine.
Hadn’t used it for awhile, maybe 6-8 months and now im having issues with fairly simple prints. most recently ive wanted to make a deck box for my MTG cards.

I think the issue is excessive moisture levels in my PLA filament.
i tried baking in the 3d printer for like 12 hours at 65C to dry it out and it seemed to help a bit, but not enough.
I also attempted to slow the printer down by using the preset “Silent” speed mode, and did a couple cold pulls incase it was due to a partially clogged nozzle.
again, im kind of just banking on it being bad filament?

All the settings are bone stock except for the speed preset i mentioned earlier, and i kicked the bed temp up to 62C. also i added another outerwall layer.

What the heck do yall think is going on here?

here’s some screenshots of filament settings.

Your filament is wet. If you are going to use an oven to dry it you must use convection. 65C is hot for PLA, try 50C with convection.

Right on, thats what i was hoping.

Maybe the nozzle is clogged, I recommend a cold pull: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZd9LfbqSOE
Had similar issues before, with contaminated filament.
