Oh god, I forgot how much micro I used to do

Literally using the swap hand mode to slightly change the angle of thrown grenades 😭

And running the first 5 seconds with cx9 bc it had a higher sprint speed

[thin valve]

u did not run knives as ur secondary?

Thats a crime.

[keen cave]

ahaha, NA micro 😄
Might be you was strong with Akimbo fenec ? 😄

[indigo solar]

Thankfully I started after the akimbo meta

Unfortunately I also joined after the NA-45 meta

[keen cave]

Ah, you didn't caught the vibe of old CODM

[indigo solar]

A) NA needs a pistol to finish off flak jacket users
B) throwables are nearly as fast (like 7 m/s vs 7.06) and faster swap times
C) everyone and their mother runs melee

[keen cave]

Especially 2019 snipers

[indigo solar]

Why let them see you

[thin valve]

Sliding back and forth enemy is fun haha

But if u get to legend now, u will have fun lmao

[keen cave]

Unfortunatelly, now CODM is annoying as hell. Dropped it after 6 years of playing

[thin valve]

EVERYONE is sniping

[thin valve]

Feels like back in my days there were more skilled players

[keen cave]

Yeah, my tournament team left the game few years ago

[indigo solar]

That's how it's been for years

I can compete tho

[thin valve]

fav map

[keen cave]

Nuketown!!! 🫡

[indigo solar]

Nuketown is why I started using NA

Abused this bug for 2 years, made a Reddit post for people wanting to learn NA-45 that mentioned it, it got patched 3 months later

[keen cave]

The only thing CODM devs cares is skins

200 skins per year

Hey, yo!

[livid sable]

for bulwark ops, is tower "attack speed" and "rate of fire" basically the same thing?

[bold thunder]

yes

[bold thunder]

New solo Bulwark pb

31 is possible, maybe higher but the kills get so tight

[foggy hemlock]

what build u using

[bold thunder]

Anesthesia/Stone Hoof/Acute Field/Otter

On Umeko

[foggy hemlock]

is she good for bulwark then

[bold thunder]

Yeah probably the best character for it

[foggy hemlock]

will try her out never used her on there

[bold thunder]

Since you don't take damage and don't do meaningful damage after around wave 6 or 7, confine and debuff are the two main things you want in a character

And she has the most of both

Plus she has a nice movement ability to make managing your build a bit less of a hassle

[foggy hemlock]

about time they gave her something to do

[bold thunder]

True lol, it's been a while

If you're just going to wave 15 for the challenge/chests, I'd cut acute and otter and throw in muqam

Makes the build a lot more consistent and easier to manage early on

This specific setup was tailored to push to high waves

[foggy hemlock]

i am honestly struggling getting by wave 10

[bold thunder]

If you want some help, I have a guide on my farming build

#videos-and-streams message

It works on any day regardless of modifiers, and it's pretty straightforward once you learn the build order

It starts struggling around waves 18-20, but by then you've already maxed out your rewards anyway

[devout void]

Nice gg

Im so sad 4 stars are bugged, why this game never work

[bold thunder]

Ikr :(

I was so excited to finally get gungnir after so many hours of farming bulwark

[devout void]

😭😭😭

[bitter estuary]

i already have 5 of these antecedent perks pls stop

[bold thunder]

Ok hear me out

Antecedant but it's boss damage this time

[bitter estuary]

out of all 5 only one of them is boss dmg so lmao

[bold thunder]

Sounds like you need 3 more to even it out then

[bitter estuary]

also lmao

[bitter estuary]

atp imma just dismantle it (for 1 mobius but who cares)

[bold thunder]

Valid lmao

Idek what weapon uses antecedant

[bitter estuary]

tatara gaze

[devout void]

At this point, the bridge should build itself when it sees you in the lobby, out of respect for the farm

[bold thunder]

Oh god ew is that the new sniper

[bitter estuary]

im like 🤏 close to maxing out the tartar sauce

[bitter estuary]

it's ARC be grateful for once

[bold thunder]

Ok ok fine

There aren't really any other good arc snipers

[bitter estuary]

for the 0.1% tan-2's who's using it for arc piercing expanse

[bitter estuary]

unless you have a maxed out borealis i don't get why you'd build borealis over tartar

[bold thunder]

To be honest I didn't feel particularly inclined to build Borealis even before they released the sauce

Just not a very appealing idea to drop such a significant amount of total damage for better shield coverage

But I also don't really do non-raid content on Tan very often

[devout void]

yea tartare was good in expanse with symmetry

Post-Maintenance Updates:
● 【Ninth Realm】 Optimized the issue where certain characters' weapon mastery and core mechanics were not carrying over between layers in the Ninth Realm gameplay.
● 【Shop】 Improved the display after purchasing character appearances in the shop.
● 【Audio】 Implemented female voiceovers for the character "Wolf" and added Radegast' voice lines in seasonal story content.

● 【Inventory Item Synthesis】 Exotic Weapon Engram now includes the decodable weapon: Scout Rifle "Jade Rabbit."
● 【Events】 Fixed texture display errors for the Jade Rabbit weapon skin "Jade Jester" in the "Blazing Moment" event interface.

[bitter estuary]

who will craft jade rabbit though /srs

you still need 250 exotic cores AND 6 photons to max it out

they could've given us 140 exotic cores and 1 photon instead of giving "free" upgrades on jade rabbit

[devout void]

i was dreaming cordon tomorrow but very short notice

[bold thunder]

I guess it's too much to expect bulwark fixes

[devout void]

yes

[bold thunder]

Still rip though

[devout void]

wait is it arbalest nerf ?

[bold thunder]

Sounds like it, though probably not a crazy one

Idk how big of a deal that bug was

[devout void]

rip that was crazy to pop a shinka and boom

they are more focus to fix the thing nobody ask

[bold thunder]

Of course, it's the destiny way

[devout void]

like when they nerf axion damage boost and we loose a lot of damage mid nexus calam

[bold thunder]

Nevermind that I have to guess how much health my enemies have in bulwark half the time

Gotta make the new linear worse for some reason

[devout void]

did you email them already for bulwark ?

even if they dont care

[bold thunder]

I reported the 2 t4 bugs via the customer support thing in the game 🤷

[cobalt beacon]

Yessssss

[devout void]

well that was expected, they didnt even play 1 time the contest or they will see the most obivous bug

[cobalt beacon]

Arby nerf im the biggest hater

[bold thunder]

Didn't say anything about the health bug, I assume someone else has

[devout void]

i build attal for that, rip i will focus xuan wei now

[cobalt beacon]

[devout void]

There was no need to leave and change names, why did the contest ruin so many friendships

[bitter estuary]

bc it was buggy?

[pulsar coral]

Because Defiance sucks, not ur fault but w the friendships ur right

[bitter estuary]

then get into another clan?

and not talk crap about other clans? hello?

[dusty spire]

Tan got nerfed lol or they holding back ability upgrades for the future lol

[sharp talon]

wth is that?

[devout void]

still the best team in calam/contest, It's not as elitist as it used to be because with all the departures they've opened the clan up to more casual people but no need to be so mad at them 😭

[dusty spire]

Could be something they do for characters is give us different abilities upgrades like a skill tree

[rare stag]

Buff qwynn and I’ll come back 🤞🤞

[dusty spire]

Eng game

But yeah tan got something removed lol

[pulsar coral]

Yes in calamity it’s top bc TRK and his Russian friends play on 5 or 6 different accounts

[bitter estuary]

not the defiance beef all over again y'all can y'all chill

[dusty spire]

Looks like he proc fireball on use of the super and when he used skill 1

[devout void]

i will try expanse after a few upgrade but he really do no damage stage 1 maybe a solar build focus, inverted fury, bellicose and full jottun, 85 weapon will change it a bit

[bitter estuary]

arby nerf attal will be unusable

[dusty spire]

Been here done it, won’t work

It’s not his weapon set up even though he can use it

He don’t actually proc it the way I think it should be.

Thats why I think it’s for a solar titan fushion / spread

[devout void]

only 1 russian but ok fair, its good to help everyone ❤️

[devout void]

yes jottun feel useless im sending 8000 damage bullets at the moment lol

[dusty spire]

It needs to be proc by a spread art user

Even though I’m not sure if the spread arts actually proc when using impact

[devout void]

wait you mean i should put maru artifact for jottun ?

[dusty spire]

Yes but it won’t proc because xuan don’t use spread weapons

[devout void]

thank you

[pulsar coral]

There is no problem w helping ppl but they r legit score boosting lmao bc kermit emporium etc are too bad, Emporium especially is the biggest cringer and attention seeker in rising haha 💀 such a clown

[dusty spire]

It’s got a nice idea on how it works just xuan don’t pull off enough solar damage for it to be that true dot on top of solar power

[cobalt beacon]

Jaren buff!!!!!!

[sharp talon]

Noticed nothing for fushion rifles since release lol

[cobalt beacon]

[devout void]

Maru does 7 figures HH not really an issue for Maru

[devout void]

[novel quest]

Real attal is so trash and mid

[cobalt beacon]

I prayed for times like these

[devout void]

nobody ask them to patch stuff mid cycle, when people complain about bulwark, bugged 4* tower or other important "bug" in the game

[devout void]

You'll understand the power of friendship one day, just people helping each other, It's not all about the money; we're playing a game. Having a job is good if needed.

[dusty spire]

So basically you ain’t getting high waves until you put enough time into tower to upgrade towers to then have a better chance of longer waves?

[true mauve]

Did patch notes drop yet?

[cobalt beacon]

2 week meta and they said it was a bug fix instead of a nerf

The netease way

You still have time to chargeback

Think about it

[mental dagger]

arby is a toss this cycle anyway unless needed for shinkas at 5

still just the sheer fact of them touching stuff mid cycle again is bad

I hope so

[devout void]

at the moment you broke shinka and the cyclops die or almost die

[cobalt beacon]

Is it tho?

[dusty spire]

AB is only meant to do good damage on pop then apply a debuff lol

Works for pierce shink content and anyone trying to increase damage on a target, really only need 1 AB user in a run maybe 2 for blitz lol

[thick copper]

anyone has tips for tower layout for solo endles or 3v3 ?

[pulsar coral]

Is it really an Ab nerf or just a big getting fixed?

[modern pasture]

Stratgically place stone hoof to cover most areas with aura, early game use cheap towers to cover fog/wrap/invis then sell to get stone hoof, and everything else is anthesia. Ur looking for prudence perk most of time but master/tycoon also fine. U need the anthesia upgrade perk and other perks are just rate/damage/solar/ and void later on

Anthesia is most important tower ingame rn make sure u fill the map to the brim with it

[thick copper]

what is the anesteshia perk ?

[true mauve]

That was a pretty easy bug to spot if they did any kind of internal testing. It was a nerf.

[modern pasture]

Shoots 1 extra beam

Without this perk u will probably not get past round 9

[sharp talon]

i hope they fixed the bug where the laser disappears and the bug where u cant jump on nexus

both happened to me in the same game yesterday 😭

[short locust]

https://tenor.com/view/dallas-lying-therussianbadger-misinformation-gif-27679221

[thick copper]

i cant get past wave 9 no matter what i do

[pulsar coral]

I play Kabr so I’m sad now

[modern pasture]

If u did my strat and still failed ur placement is wrong in 3v3 go closer to middle for stone hoof and anthesia make it close to it

[pulsar coral]

It doesn’t seem like a big difference tho, no explosion when breaking Shinka shield

[bitter estuary]

not me running out of mobius clusters

back to the mines ig

[thick copper]

im doing solo atm

[modern pasture]

Oh its the sheilded one? U need long steel

Forgot about that

[thick copper]

no its accelerated protector and invisibility

[modern pasture]

Man i dont remeber tbh but use cheap stuff early on and anthesia then sell those cheap stone to get 1 to 2 stone hoofs and maximize the anthesia

[thick copper]

i kill the ads myself then do 2 hoofs and just keep playcing anesthesias

[modern pasture]

U need anthesia at the back btw

Later on to kill ads that escape

[thick copper]

yeah i start placing rhem at back first

[modern pasture]

One stone hoof is usually good enough till round 7/8

U need anthesia max or 2

[modern pasture]

I usually place at begining first then go towards back round 6/7

Since they dont reach back till later on

[summer ledge]

Lockdown/Contravene for pure damage, swap Arbalest for utility and versatility.

Arbalest even with band 2 doesn't put out as much as Contravene, but you trade that lower damage for ease of use and a buff that extends to your entire team. Plus, it's apparently quite good for impact shinkas in addition to piercing.

[karmic chasm]

Didn’t they just nerf it

Or put out patch notes nerfing it? Making RC better overall damage again or something

[short locust]

Get baited ig?

[karmic chasm]

Whatt

I think it makes what Cavendish said even more true

[summer ledge]

No clue. I have barely touched the game for the past week.

[karmic chasm]

🥀

I just like how RC feels tbh

[summer ledge]

Currently struggling to bring Last Word/sniper/blink back to popularity, and failing.

Lots and lots of failing when everyone has a submachine gun and a shotgun.

[karmic chasm]

Submachine guns have always been an issue imo

In d2. I didn’t play much PvP, but when I did I got steamrolled by subs

[summer ledge]

Even hand cannons are disappearing, and I feel that was part of what Destiny did best in terms of gun feel.

Everything is either submachine gun and shotgun or pulse and shotgun now. Pretty much one hand cannon is left and that is because it is almost impossible to counter without having that same hand cannon.

If only I had properly learned Last Word three years ago or whenever it was actually good. Can't remember.

[mint tendon]

Morning

[summer ledge]

Now imagine one that just has higher damage at base. No damage perk needed.

[summer ledge]

Hopefully yours will be rather productive. I am probably going to sleep within the hour since my shifts are all over the place again.

[karmic chasm]

I’m headed into work rn actually

Grabbed my daily lumia and I was out

[mint tendon]

Yeah I'm headed to work rn

[summer ledge]

We switch every two months or whenever they tell us. Now it's back to nights again.

We usually get off around 7 in the morning.

[mint tendon]

Jeez

[summer ledge]

At least the pay is nice. Somehow I was able to make the horrendous financial decision of buying a new car and can still afford insurance and payments for two vehicles.

Lucky that the charging infrastructure is fairly good here. It doesn't seem quite as friendly in other states.

[mint tendon]

Hopefully the new car will last a good while

FL here

[summer ledge]

It should. Only about 15k miles on the new electric one, and 120k on the older gas one.

Colorado has about a thousand reasons why you should switch to electric in the form of tax credits, bonuses, and rebates.

[short locust]

In what? D2? Or Rising?

[summer ledge]

D2 as of right now. Hopefully we get a hand cannon/sniper character in Rising soon, though. Always been my favorite pairing.

[karmic chasm]

Man, I don’t want to bc I love my car

[summer ledge]

Still just trying to figure out which sniper I like best after taking such a long break. Mercurial is a stat monster and feels nice but I like the lower zoom on my adept Thistle, too.

I just wish I had gotten any rolls of other snipers that didn't have things like Closing Time or Lone Wolf since the dynamic speeds mess with my muscle memory. Just give me something with Snapshot and Moving Target and we can call it a day. Simple consistency.

[summer ledge]

Definitely don't right now if you ever decide to. The winter has not been kind to how long my battery lasts on an 80% charge.

[karmic chasm]

I have a Honda Civic EX-L from 2020 and it’s actually awesome

I wanted a hybrid but that just wasn’t available

[summer ledge]

That will definitely last you a while if you maintain it and the Denver drivers don't kill you.

I have also decided I want Shaxx as our next impact character instead of Felwinter.

[devout void]

can someone help him

[short locust]

Yeah I mained TLW/sniper for years, and eventually Devils Ruin/Sniper since it was more high impact (until it's nerf)

Yasmin/Devils was so damn scary to face, but nobody knew how to play Devils so it couldn't be copied

[shy matrix]

Hi, is there any news for rerun of character like Hellhest and Gwynn?

Would be good to have rerun after the Kabr banner

[summer ledge]

Supremacy was my best pick for kinetic slot just because of the high aim assist and handling. Either that or the stasis one from the Hive season. Can't remember the name.

[devout void]

i have a Brumeswept Night

[short locust]

Defiance of Yasmin was p much the same between enhanced opening shot and high handling, just in an adaptive package and the best scope picture of all time

[prisma nest]

hmmm ...

[short locust]

Loved that thing, and it's magnet rounds

[prisma nest]

nah but succession tho

[short locust]

Too slow for devils play since the stow speed was atrocious

Succession has mad style though

[prisma nest]

with reconstruction i get 11-12 shots in the mag

[short locust]

Not in PvP you ain't

[prisma nest]

no not in pvp without enough pickups

well i meant for pve anyways

[short locust]

Succ was a PvE Rifle, and I used it for that. PvP wise though it was Yasmin all day for me

[thorny frost]

Amusingly it looks like it will have very minimal impact. The explosion that is produced is so high it isn’t even hitting the shinka it self. I had an ungraded one so I decided to upgrade it and test. So if it is literally just that one cat change we will lose a little extra damage on mobs who might be on the same plain as it but it didn’t seem to do anything else.

[prisma nest]

nah a sniper in pvp id probably go ... adored

[short locust]

Also a good option. I used that with TLW until I swapped

[prisma nest]

ngl i think more on the hand cannon side of things vs the sniper

man i just got this mean palindrome on d1 too 🤠

[short locust]

TLW was just broken as hell lmao

0.53-.80 TTK and it was easy to use. The only downside was it couldnt be accurate while airborne

[summer ledge]

Is there currently any way to get more Jade Rabbit drops or are we stuck with band 1?

[short locust]

That's why I graduated to Devils. 0.60-80 TTK, airborne accuracy and a 0.33 melt beam

[bitter estuary]

i only used tlw bc i had no exotic shotgun built lol

[short locust]

Duality gamers

[prisma nest]

im using invective in X

d1

[short locust]

Oh I havnt played D1 in forever

[prisma nest]

the lingering song sounds so nice

[short locust]

I can't anyway since I gave away my PS5, and 30 FPS is actually intolerable

[prisma nest]

rising is the way

[short locust]

Unfortunately yeah

[bitter estuary]

ts so slow

[magic hull]

Only 2 destiny games still in a good state are rising and 1

[short locust]

Ehhhhhh debatable for all the games imo

[bitter estuary]

rising after a bandaid patch to address the weapon mod issue

[short locust]

D1 is a nightmare to stomach it's technical issues, D2 is D2 lmao, and this is a Gacha game teetering on EoS

[bitter estuary]

this is good, but just kinda intolerable at times

ill be building tartar sauce next ig

[prisma nest]

its a scout

ofc its slow

[bitter estuary]

idk if i should waste 16 mobius for the last 2 mod upgrades

[bitter estuary]

no the fang is generally slow

faster than jade rabbit though

[prisma nest]

its an adaptive frame.

[bitter estuary]

jade rabbit is from 150 up to 180 at maxed, fang of ir yut is 216 with the exotic mod

[summer ledge]

It was a rapid fire in D2, so switching it back to a precision frame definitely did not help.

[prisma nest]

its not slow nor fast

[bitter estuary]

it's slower than fang though, and MUCH slower than TL and lassi

[summer ledge]

Even then, Lockdown with a fire rate mod goes to something like 312.

[prisma nest]

it was 180 in d1.

[short locust]

Ye but was changed to rapid fire in D2 for some reason

[prisma nest]

how easily people forget

[summer ledge]

Not forgotten. Just terrible when it was a 180.

[prisma nest]

it wasnt terrible either

in d1

[summer ledge]

It had competition in Hung Jury, which was probably the best scout in the game at that time.

[prisma nest]

just overshadowed by other primaries

i like the feeling of fang of ir yut over hung jury but the perks weren't as good/general use

[short locust]

It was an arc scout in the kinetic slot with bad perks, so just by being an elemental weapon it saw use

[bitter estuary]

i think fastest to slowest scout is like

Total lockdown > symmetry > Del3 lassi > fang of ir yut > jade rabbit > polaris lance

polaris is decent atleast because you essentially have infinite ammo, jade rabbit only refunds 2 shots at cat band 01 after the 3rd shot

[short locust]

In D2 tho idk

[prisma nest]

small arms + arc will probably be fatebringer/necro choice

[white fossil]

fang so fire 🙏

[summer ledge]

Enhanced Precision Instrument is a four tap in Crucible, but no one really uses it outside of that.

[short locust]

Makes sense. I quit D2 a Lil while ago so Im not familiar

[bitter estuary]

im only using it because all my bear approaches mods (i have 4 of em) have reload speed substat so i can't use lassi i'm crine

[summer ledge]

Even then, pretty much any weapon archetype that has a heat variant is automatically at a disadvantage because of how strong those are.

[bitter estuary]

lassi is just slower bc i have no fire rate up mod i hate this

[white fossil]

i love this gun on the new kabr, it just melts stuff

[prisma nest]

3 with high weapons stat

[bitter estuary]

i want to grind more bridge crossing but i'm too tired to grind

[prisma nest]

167+

[white fossil]

i need to grind crota stuff for that damn ghost shell

[bitter estuary]

it's so cheap to upgrade mythics icl

glad they made mods grindable bc it's been so wack for ages

[summer ledge]

The 1% chance or whatever it says is a lie. It's easy to get.

You should have it within a couple weeks if you don't farm religiously.

[white fossil]

yeah it is pretty easy maxxing mythics now, just costs alot of mobius really

[bitter estuary]

getting the perks and substats you want is hard though

[summer ledge]

Thought it was the ghost shell. That's easy.

[bitter estuary]

also yeah the 7% is a lie bc it definitely feels like 14~21% or higher

[modest plume]

i love shifting gates, just wish it was easier to q

[summer ledge]

I'm on something like ten or twelve exotic mods now with no Solidarity/fire rate.

[bitter estuary]

me grinding bridge and every mod is somehow for the perk that's in that 1 gun (like lassi and tartar gaze)

[summer ledge]

Apparently I had four with Annihilation just waiting, but no other perks seem to be rolling.

[prisma nest]

shifting gates is good tbh

better than gambit fs

[short locust]

Gambit is terrible so I hope so

[shy radish]

Dadak is legit the worst boss in the expanse rn

Who would create something like that lmao

[thick copper]

whats the diffennce between attack speed and rate of fire in bulwark ops ?

[rustic moat]

ive neglected shadowshaper for most of the time. any way to get the 30 wins quickly for my seal?

i tried beating a bot, but that didnt count. Pretty ridiculous challenge for the season title

[naive ingot]

Actually me and @twilit thistle did some gambit the other day. It was actually..... Fun

[prisma nest]

is where winds meet good

will not happen

[devout void]

😭

[prisma nest]

do you realize how much money they have

they are netease

[true mauve]

Didnt stop them from closing down Marvel Mystic Mayhem within 6 months

[edgy frigate]

Prolly trillions tbh

[prisma nest]

theyre like 10x bigger than bungie

[true mauve]

Marvel game and dead launch to EoS 6 months

Marvel isnt a dead IP like Destiny

[prisma nest]

ok but that was an unknown property

[karmic chasm]

What is this lmaooo

[true mauve]

That is a Marvel game and netease already makes Rivals. Why wouldnt new Marvel game stick around unless bad profits?

[karmic chasm]

MMM also was only produced by Netease to my knowledge. They didn’t develop it

[prisma nest]

because maybe its a style or type of game people don't like idk

[true mauve]

It was an amazing game

[devout void]

Rip rising it was good

[true mauve]

They had no foreseeable future much like DR. Everyone hung up on having to use T6 HH

[prisma nest]

ive never seen it so i can't speak to how good it is

[short locust]

https://tenor.com/view/fire-gif-15012643260983495790

[true mauve]

Ngl, imo it was better than DR at launch. Fell off quick much like DR though.

[karmic chasm]

If only it was real

[short locust]

WWM is fine, but it's got so much filler it's actually mind boggling. Plus the difficulty is always either "play with your eyes closed, or don't get hit"

[true mauve]

The pvp is such a lagfest

[karmic chasm]

Did you make that Corndog, or did someone else lol

That’s a pretty convincing screenshot nonetheless

[naive ingot]

I tried WWM and it's not for me. Tried it on PS5

[bitter estuary]

oop my messages just reloaded

[true mauve]

I'm not good for make stuff

[bitter estuary]

yes

[short locust]

If it didn't start with the same wording as the radegast voice actor message, it might have been

[bitter estuary]

but it's essentially naraka bladepoint (netease ip) but turned into an mmo/arpg

[karmic chasm]

Now I think RC is a more valid choice

Well not more valid than Arby, but more valid than before

[bitter estuary]

if you like wwm pvp just play naraka bladepoint atp

[true mauve]

Was the best apology they ever sent us, i mad libbed it lol

[karmic chasm]

The 50 leaves makes it funny asl tho

[bitter estuary]

then suddenly ananta gets delayed till 2027/2028

[true mauve]

Im gonna be dead by then. Mobile gaming is dieing, its become very provocative and steered towards young male adults

Good games are hard to find

[bitter estuary]

zzz was just hi3rd but more physics and even less depth in the combat

[twilit thistle]

Ads for pinnacle when?

[bitter estuary]

i think most games was just bland as hell

[true mauve]

Then we all laughed at it not being real

[short locust]

For Mobile probably. There's so many good games out on PC rn I don't have time to play em all

[bitter estuary]

mobile just sucks i think

pc is rlly good despite the amount of ue5 slop that isn't optimized well

[true mauve]

How to use #📥│contact-mod ? My message got deleted

[vocal hawk]

DM @unkempt depot

[short locust]

https://tenor.com/view/ban-button-keyboard-press-the-ban-button-gif-16387934

[floral abyss]

Follow the instructions and DM @unkempt depot

[twilit thistle]

To extend the games lifespan netease should run ads on the extra pinnacle you get in a day, and simply disable that if you buy the patron bundle. It’s just more sustainable than what we have currently, and would buy the devs more time to fix the game.

[bitter estuary]

attal nerf will make millions cope

[prisma nest]

im just gonna stay in d1

no more d2 for now 🤠

[naive ingot]

If only D1 had mantle and healing rifts...

[vocal hawk]

real

[edgy frigate]

It would be kinda nice if there was rewarded ads, but no forced ads

[short locust]

Rift sucks anyway

Phoenix dive all day

[bitter estuary]

15% powerful/boss boost+deadly warrant

[pulsar coral]

I didn’t think this was it for the patch notes! I hoping to see the release for Crota skins

[vocal hawk]

those might need a bit more time to cook

[bitter estuary]

huh?

anyways i think fang of ir yut isn't bad it's just slow

per shot is doing more than symmetry though

[vocal hawk]

oh good they added jade rabbit to engrams

[pulsar coral]

The should be releasing Crota skins soon. I thought these patch notes would have shared that.

[short locust]

Gotta give the generative AI more time

[vocal hawk]

light patch notes

[pulsar coral]

The announced it on 1/14

[bitter estuary]

oh official patch notes arrived

[pulsar coral]

Yup

Same as that screenshot lol

[bitter estuary]

this is so short

[vocal hawk]

yeah this is definitely a weekly maintenance patch

one of the weekly maintenances of all time

[pulsar coral]

Release Crota skins!

[prisma nest]

ok so radegast doesnt grunt anymore

🤓

[pulsar coral]

Only took 3 weeks lol

[vocal hawk]

yeah they must've been able to get ray chase in the booth finally

guy's a busy dude, i get it
still sucked

[bitter estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-spongebob-squarepants-spongebob-season-3-ugh-caveman-gif-3672256222981125053

[prisma nest]

🤓🤓🌷

[bitter estuary]

radegast be like

[prisma nest]

🦧🦍

[twilit thistle]

Exactly the model games from 10 years ago that are alive today use. These games cost less, in all fairness. Still, I think from a financial standpoint this simple optional change could be precisely what the game needs. An update like that would allow the developers to spend more time fixing the game, and less time worrying about the current player base.

[short locust]

Sounds like a one way ticket to burnout considering there is no content to really play even with infinite energy

[vocal hawk]

most mobile games i've played in the past...ten years have used that to supplement income

[bitter estuary]

mm yes asphalt series

very common to see them in gameloft

[short locust]

Imagine watching ads in between Chaos farming

As if it couldn't get any more mind numbing

[vocal hawk]

the type of ads being discussed are fully opt-in

[short locust]

Thats nice and all but it changes nothing

[vocal hawk]

there's a button to watch an ad and then it gives you a thing in return for watching the ad

[vocal hawk]

there's a huge difference between being forced to watch an ad and queuing up an ad to watch yourself

namely, one pisses people off real bad

for good reason

[tight talon]

I rather have none at all

Sorry, charge me an entry fee for all i care. Just don't shove an ad right slap in the middle of whenever it gets interesting

[edgy frigate]

Wait I’m confused.. how would ads help them fix the game?

[tight talon]

Makes me hate your operations even more the more convoluted ways they introduce it

[vocal hawk]

The thought is increased revenue would give them more budget.

Would that actually happen? idunno

[edgy frigate]

If it does, cool! If not, still cool! I’ll play either way!

[short locust]

In the context of what I was saying considering burnout, and how infinite energy solves very little if anything at all, there's effectively no difference with or without an opt in ads system

They're still on a tight clock to make changes, arguably even faster

[vocal hawk]

i agree that renewable stamina would not solve the burnout problem

that's why they're revamping the stamina problem next season

[short locust]

I'll be honest, stamina isn't even one of the games top 3 problems

I hope it works out, but I highly doubt it

[white fossil]

180 pinnacle daily with massively increased cap/no cap would be fire 🙏

and maybe add reserve energy to battle pass shop for the shard token things, that too would be fire

[vocal hawk]

i'd rather the entire loot system get overhauled because feeling like i'm not rewarded for spending longer playing contributes to me not feeling like spending a lot of time in the game

[tight talon]

Stamina is only a low Team Level/Acclaim level problem

You don't get enough when you can be hooked to the game, but when you do finish building all characters barring 4 remaining, You basically never spend them unless exclusively farming new artifacts

[short locust]

And artifact farming is an endless time sink that's boring as sin

[vocal hawk]

yeah at the stage of endgame i'm in i don't really feel much of a pull to get new stuff
some bad timing, too, i got really burnt out after doing real life stuff constantly, and then my controller broke, and then emulators crapped out, oof

[naive ingot]

Especially when after Refactors too

I've actually saved my pinnacle today as doing Crota runs later so wanna see if the ghost drops

[sharp talon]

refactors are bad but at least they have an end in sight

[short locust]

It never feels good spending all of your stamina every day for months to just never get anywhere, and statistically, you maybe literally NEVER get God rolls

[naive ingot]

Normally it's all gone on legendary or chaos

[sharp talon]

i did get one god roll for jaren but i cant use it because i have no essence. if i upgrade to 85 now, i would require even more essence to upgrade it

though at least with one god roll i can just save dice for 1 artifact

[short locust]

And probably have the dice brick anyway

[sharp talon]

no, you can guarantee it if you have 5 or 6 dice

because it doesnt repeat rolls

[naive ingot]

They go quite quickly 😂

[scenic wigeon]

I literally haven't used a single dice yet

[sharp talon]

you have to have all 5 dice ready at once though

[short locust]

Oh yeah sure, just buy all your dice sources for 1 artifact

Lmao ok

[sharp talon]

my jaren is basically done though at that point

besides defensive artifacts

[short locust]

My Ning was the only character I invested in until Jaren and never got God rolls

Jaren thankfully I got lucky and did, but that possibility is disgusting

[sharp talon]

im not sure if its 5 dice or 6 dice tbh. 6 dice if your original roll can be repeated

thats stupid af if it does that though

[scenic wigeon]

Launch week, then for no reason at all I left till I started playing d2 and was confused, so I decided... why not check back in on rising (a matter of 2 days before the dawning started on d2)

[sacred siren]

i didnt use all of them at once, but have used around ~5 on different occasions and have had vuln roll 3 times so it repeats 🙁

[sharp talon]

yeah you have to use them all at once

[sacred siren]

if only i knew beforehand 😭

[sharp talon]

in that menu

im not sure if its 5 or 6 dice if the original roll gets added back to the pool

[bitter estuary]

i fear if they remove pinnacle ppl will complain more (one example, look at dna)

bc i feel like the gameplay is quite shallow other than raids

[delicate mango]

Apparently there's another dice that you can choose any artifacts attribute

[sharp talon]

thats insanely expensive tho

[vocal hawk]

they are Very Expensive

it's one of the things for the purchase reward things

very much a whale resource

[delicate mango]

I wish there was another way to get it

[vocal hawk]

same

[bitter estuary]

i only buy the bp just to have them

incase if one artefact roll has all the rolls i want

except that ONE attribute

[sharp talon]

saving random dice (and a lot of them) or getting lucky is the only way for god rolls for most people i think

[devout void]

I think it was the priority this maintenance even if bulwark is broken

[true mauve]

Destiny Rising is getting ads in game?

[vocal hawk]

no

the discussion was a hypothetical

[true mauve]

We arnt allowed hypotheticals I thought

[tight talon]

I am not saying remove them. Just saying there's no use of energy beyond a certain Acclaim level. And it is exemplified if you don't have any characters aside from the recent one + permanent ones.

[vocal hawk]

As we discussed earlier, if you want to talk about a moderation you received DM @unkempt depot

[true mauve]

Im not discussing moderation from earlier, its always a fail because "mods are always right" i could see the potential for it to get out of hand after being modded, even though I used precautions (prob why I didnt get a mute).

I log in and see a discord mod talking about ads being added. I put more value in what a mod says than a random player

[bitter estuary]

oh true

im just building the characters i like atp

since i reached current max acclaim

[devout void]

No value for our words 🥀

[twilit thistle]

Its a band aid. From observations I have seen that the development cycle falls off around the debugging phase. This, and a majority of the other symptoms scream time and budget constraints. What makes the solution unique to me, is nobody has said anything negative about the idea itself yet, outside of doubting it would fix the game.

[hushed crown]

[vocal hawk]

The senior mods can and do discuss or remove warnings if they deem it appropriate.

[true mauve]

Im not bent over a warning 👍 like I said I can understand why you did what you did after the fact, hindsight 20/20

[vocal hawk]

For future reference you shouldn't assume who it was that gave you a moderation, multiple of us are typically active and we all get pinged if something is going on

[twilit thistle]

👀 senior mods? With an 's'?

[vocal hawk]

Yes

Don and Jay

Jay's been a little behind the scenes lately due to personal reasons but he's still there

[true mauve]

Sorry did not mean you as an individual, meant the mods as one cohesive unit. Should have said "you guys"

[vocal hawk]

Fair enough

[devout void]

Good discorder 🦾

[twilit thistle]

ohhh. Was gonna say i thought they had to go online. I wouldnt even know the ranks if i weren't on pc tbh lol. On pc its always what I see while i am in the server. Never seen anyone but don. when i was on mobile, i would reply to don thinking hes just another ghost lmao. I had no idea.

[vocal hawk]

You'd be amazed at how much spam you get by being near the top of a user list

To avoid that some people go invisible

[oblique geyser]

Did arbalest got nerfed already ?

[vocal hawk]

I don't because I don't mind

[vocal hawk]

Why would you say that?

[thin valve]

@indigo solar guess which weapon im getting to diamond skin rn

[white yew]

so are we resetting leaderboards with that arby nerf or what?

[hushed crown]

@vocal hawk misinformation

[true mauve]

@vast arch is the 🐐 hands down no questions asked

[oblique geyser]

Just read the note, just wondering what it changed

[true mauve]

Im AI because im on that leaderboard, didnt you know I ain real 😭

[twilit thistle]

Smarter to bait them actually, youd likely know someone is messaging everyone in the server, before they get too far. There are some cryptids ive seen too, like i once looked and saw netease staff or something on there.

[vocal hawk]

damnit

[devout void]

No classic netease to patch mid cycle

But 2 QB is the best score in calam

[true mauve]

Fun fact, Maru the CM head honcho has a DnD discord server they made and had a link for it on their profile. Anyone could join by clicking. Wayyy easier to contact them through that server than main 😜

[vocal hawk]

The note says that it changed a visual, so they probably tweaked the muzzle flair

[devout void]

Its tomorrow you can still enjoy to pop a shinka and kill a cyclop

[vocal hawk]

Muzzle flare

Not flair

[oblique geyser]

Well it was usefull on previous cycle for sure

Havent tried this cycle yet though

[devout void]

The most important for Arbalest in the Notice is not about visual sadly, i wish

[bold thunder]

They did also apparently fix a major bug with its catalyst, that some people seem to view as a nerf

[vocal hawk]

I need to reread the notes but I am out in -1C weather right now

So give me like 5 minutes lol

[oblique geyser]

Well you could "explode" big elite shanks in previous cycle with just the shunka explosion so it was pretty dope

[vocal hawk]

Oh, the blast damage thing

Doesn't that mean it was accidentally dealing spread damage instead of piercing?

[oblique geyser]

No one knows until tomorrow i guess then

[vocal hawk]

God it's cold rn

[devout void]

They could wait the end of a cycle, or it's not "fair"

But not the first time they patch something nobody ask, many player are begging for bulkwark fix

[signal spade]

People are pretending bulwark is bugged when they try using tier one towers from a week old outdated reddit post once and complain they can't get to wave 30

Bulwark is only hard if didn't bother to upgrade anything or read tooltips tbh

At least getting to 15 anyway

[ancient plover]

yo

[signal spade]

It's clear Netease doesn't want ppl afking to wave 99 esp since you cap out on resources you could possibly spend by like wave 25

[devout void]

Why so cruel

Im speaking about bugged 4* tower to go more far, 15 is not a challenge anymore

But you are right everything is fine so let's "nerf" the best weapon of their new character 🦾

[signal spade]

It's not a nerf though it's a bugfix

You're not popping a solar shield to trigger the explosion so it shouldn't trigger the explosion

[smoky oxide]

Precision shinka shields are technically void shields

Void is an element

[devout void]

Your character is pretty useless anyway except throwing shuriken or salvo at high waves

[devout void]

Still nobody ask to fix that mid cycle but they do that many time so

[smoky oxide]

I think it’s the accessibility setting or something to show you an enemy’s shield element and I remember seeing void on the precision shinka at one point

[devout void]

The best score use 2 QB so whatever but it's not fair if for exemple the best team used arbalest before patch and after you cant beat them

And maybe some team practice since a week an Arbalest strat, anyway good job Netease this was the priority 🦾

[signal spade]

They patch every Thursday morning pretty much

[smoky oxide]

I can’t post images but the shinkas are indeed void

[devout void]

You still dont get the point its ok

[signal spade]

Idk I think the point is something wasn't working the way they intended so they fixed it, I'm sure competent players can figure out a way to kill one or two extra enemies in calamity ops to promote

Even the players getting their rank 1 scores will say they could always do better

[bold thunder]

Bulwark is in fact bugged
- person who has mostly t4 towers

Multiple t4 towers seem to be just fully broken, and the enemy health bars often stop updating

[signal spade]

Yea the health bar thing is super annoying

[devout void]

Same for bulwark yes

But you come here saying people are """""pretending""""" Bullwark is bugged to show off that you can reach wave 15 and make fun of people with Reddit old build. It's not their fault if they have an old build. NetEase is sharing fake information on their Twitter 🤭 Imagine farming for days for 4-star Towers and they're bugged

Yea many thing don't work as intended but some are more important to fix sometime, or not mid cycle they can wait a week, of course the player will find an other way it's not the point

Last week they patch Band emote oob so a team keep their oob timer for exemple

[signal spade]

Yea I mean I agree they handle leaderboards in this game terribly and have no care about integrity on them at all whatsoever

But I don't conflate that with their patch timing

[bold thunder]

Tbf they definitely have higher priorities than fixing endgame content in an arcade mode that I imagine single digit people even have unlocked right now

[vocal hawk]

what even is the requirement to unlock bulwark ops

[signal spade]

Yea I have like all of the blues and half the purples t4 but unless there's a bug stopping me from hitting 15 each week I lose nothing

[vocal hawk]

right now i can't get past 5 but that's just because i'm bad and only level 4

[bold thunder]

I don't know if there is one, I had it unlocked automatically iirc

[vocal hawk]

due to not playing much this season for real life reasons

[thorny frost]

While waiting for the end cycle would be wise, the result of the “bug fix” for the catalyst will probably have little to no impact this cycle. If that is truly all that they are fixing it will just mean that niche cases where the enemy was almost on top of the shinka orb might not die… the explosion doesn’t even reach the shinka.

[faint cargo]

Man I hope they increase the number of exotic tubes per pinnacle run this is so zzz

[bold thunder]

I mean aside from being an easy way to farm world drop exotics, there isn't much reason to play bulwark ops unless you enjoy it

[thorny frost]

Damage with and with out said catalyst.

[bold thunder]

So fair enough if you haven't played it much

[signal spade]

It's a good time killer and you get a decent chunk of mats

[sharp talon]

you get a decent amount of leaves as well

[vocal hawk]

From bulwark...?

[sharp talon]

yeah from the levels

[signal spade]

Yea id say skipping bulwark ops is like a thousand times worse than skipping anything else seasonally

[vocal hawk]

Ah, one time things

[signal spade]

Because the one time track stuff is kinda juiced

[vocal hawk]

Yeah I need to play more I'm just swamped

[bold thunder]

I think putting it in there with shifting makes sense to me
It feels like a similar reward level to shifting when lekple used to play it

[sharp talon]

isnt bulwark leaving next season anyway?

[signal spade]

No just resetting

[vocal hawk]

Unclear if it's fully leaving or just resetting

[signal spade]

Prob new towers and new maps or something

[vocal hawk]

The in-game text is Weird

[vast arch]

https://tenor.com/view/john-cena-im-watching-you-i-am-watching-you-wwe-watch-out-gif-25856329

[signal spade]

I think it's gonna be the same as if you logged in first time again

No cards 3 basic towers and a fresh reward track

[bold thunder]

Yeah it'll clear everything (towers/level/pbs) and reset you to if it was day 1

[signal spade]

I wonder if you can prestige the titles or how that will work

[vocal hawk]

"once the season ends, the activity will close" is confusing wording

[bold thunder]

Ooo that would be fun

[vocal hawk]

especially because it seems to contradict itself immediately

[stark forge]

i dont think reward track will refresh

[sharp talon]

on the event calendar it's marked with the rest of the temporary events.. kinda confusing

[bold thunder]

I assume they mean in the same way that shadowshaper closes for the night, not go away forever (definitely weird wording though)

[signal spade]

The only reason to play is the reward track so that'd be strange if they didn't reset it, they reset the track for gates it just has nothing of value on it

[twilit thistle]

The wording on inverted guard is just as confusing.

[vocal hawk]

Wait, grandmaster legendary campaign?

[bold thunder]

Also the reward track is a huge part of the chests you get early on to unlock the towers, so not resetting it would make maxing even slower

[devout void]

i used this for trio (solo first picture but anything work), this afternoon and always easy +15, but to not leak too much try to reroll until Ana +1 beam

[stark forge]

i suspect it will stay the same like fishing and cards, bulwark seems to be a 1 time grind after all

[signal spade]

Ya but they don't take away your cards or fishing progress so idk

[devout void]

very sad except next season we have more chest

[bold thunder]

The tutorial says the tower cards will be wiped, so sadly not a 1 time grind

[bitter estuary]

Balls

[signal spade]

I think there not being a seasonal fishing or shadow shaper track is a miss tbh

[stark forge]

its a 1 time grind when reward track are completed, u only come back for artifact mats from 3 normal chest

[tropic swift]

I found the in-game patrol location of the RSR Bonfire.
Unlike Jiangshi Metro where the Bonfire is exactly where its supposed to be. In Red Sea Rift its located just OOB in the Firebase Minos Side. I originally found it ages ages ago while I had a few Conches collected. It reflected what I had collected. Only the Conches are visible. Here's it showing all my collected Conches now alongside the location.

[karmic chasm]

How big are these maps 👀

[signal spade]

I feel like typing you want flawless makes people more likely to jump off a cliff

[vocal hawk]

https://tenor.com/view/dead-karon-cute-anime-vtuber-gif-19833447

[tropic swift]

When I originally found it. I only had 2 at the time as you can see.

[stark forge]

omw to execute the fastest dive when i see flawless abyss

[karmic chasm]

It’s better to just send up a quick prayer fr

[bold thunder]

Oh also I forgot coop literally just shows the wrong modifiers 💀

[tropic swift]

Last pic 😆

[stark forge]

we put too much confidence in new light for flawless runs

[karmic chasm]

Is there no outer limit to these maps??

[karmic chasm]

It often isn’t the new lights 🥀

[tropic swift]

There is. There is invisible geometry that you do fall off eventually.

[vocal hawk]

RSR's OOB is so pretty

[signal spade]

I did crota yday cause it's def easiest to flawless and when the symbol came up i pinged it and immediately someone pinged the wrong one so I fixed it and they did it again and the runner died

Was epic

[stark forge]

deathsinger is easiest to do flawless

crota idk its buggy af

[sharp talon]

ends the fastest i think, less opportunity to die?

[signal spade]

Ya unless someone shoots the wrong symbol I think you insta die

Buy ya both are free in guess you can almost solo singers if you wanted

[stark forge]

if u jump in sword too quick u cant interrupt crota
if u jump in portal to early while first phase not done, crota wont execute 2nd phase

[tropic swift]

It sure is. A few more 😅

[indigo solar]

:D

This is the last ss I have of it, I probably have 40k kills by now

[karmic chasm]

Stop making me want to go back to codm

[thin valve]

Did 500 kills with spear today

4500 to go🙏

[short locust]

I'm back babyyyy

[short locust]

Killstreak: Nice.

[thin valve]

5.3k headshots is insane

[indigo solar]

This is the sole reason I don't go for a 100 streak

[thin valve]

With my aggressive sniping i have like 500 headshots in 28k kills

[indigo solar]

Used to be like 40% headshot, then I started quickscoping it

[short locust]

Who aims for the head with a rifle in Cod? As long as you connect torso it's wraps

[indigo solar]

Btw if you don't have gold on it yet, explosion kills don't count for long shots

[thin valve]

Same, i always quickscope

[indigo solar]

Not this one

30 damage to body

[short locust]

I'm sorry, explosion?

[thin valve]

damn

[thin valve]

Haha, taniks show him the clip

[indigo solar]

First shot is a sticky grenade, second shot detonates it if it lands nearby

[short locust]

So a 2 round burst rifle but easier. Am I? Getting that right?

LMAO puff puff

[half sky]

Impossible to get it on first choose either be 2nd or later. I tried rolling never got it

[thin valve]

Average NA experience

Sucks that nuke does not count when u do kills with melee

Would have gotten it several times today

[indigo solar]

It has tech tho

[dusk hemlock]

This looks weird

[thin valve]

welcome to cod

[indigo solar]

It's by far the weirdest gun in the game

[twilit thistle]

Is this the new charachter? I like the movement based abilities and kit. Is that the new BP weapon? A single sidearm? Wow that ability is cool, was that grenade and scan?

[indigo solar]

Okay actually no I take that back, second weirdest

Also only two ammo per mag so it's just a hard read gun, if you mess up you're usually dead

Weirdest is D13 Sector

[rotund raptor]

Bruh what

[thin valve]

codm is game where u can get eaten by a dog, we talking about weirdness?

[stark forge]

damn u convinced me to download codm again

[indigo solar]

So basically if you shoot at a slight angle into a roof (basically anything that isn't perfectly vertical) the grenade clips into the roof a little when it spawns, so when it explodes the collision checks don't see the roof and can hit enemies above

Basically you can floorbang with explosions

[thin valve]

As a sniper enjoyer, i hate K9

[indigo solar]

And if they ever patch that I have another way that just straight up teleports the round to the top surface

[rotund raptor]

I def gotta try this if if i go back to codm

[short locust]

This reminds me of D1 beta armor piercing rounds. (If you didn't know, they could penetrate any singular surface no matter how thick as long as it was one object)

[indigo solar]

They already patched the glitch that made me originally start playing NA-45, if you headshotted an enemy with the first round then they would respawn with it stuck to them still for an easy second kill

[twilit thistle]

😭 Please steal players in #off-topic

[rotund raptor]

Ngl i really would like to use Na but i find it kinda hard

I enjoy HDR or DLQ better

[regal gulch]

An Na-45 user respect and disrespect

Locus all the way got all skins

[thin valve]

DLQ my baby

[regal gulch]

And dlq for fun

[indigo solar]

Nah it's pure disrespect

[regal gulch]

Lol

[thin valve]

Bro finding weird techs in every game

[indigo solar]

This spot works with any gun btw, surprised pros haven't found it

[indigo solar]

I got on the roof of crash in a live match :)

And terminal but they patched that

[rotund raptor]

https://tenor.com/view/tiger-tiger-woods-big-dog-salutation-what-up-gif-2478767235926945002

[indigo solar]

There was also a glitch with a tactical grenade about a year ago that let you double jump

[thin valve]

Katana that let u go through walls💔💔💔

It did not last long tho

Im tired of spear tho

4k more kills

[rotund raptor]

Ppl criticise u for using mele for some reason lol

Even when u have used ur gun all match and do 1 melee

[thin valve]

U mean killing with melee or just using it as secondary in general

[thin valve]

Ohh

U cant imagine amount of people i made ragequit today

[indigo solar]

Ah yes, coastal, the famously vertical map

[rotund raptor]

Haha lol

[rotund raptor]

Its crazy how i didnt know any of these until today

[thin valve]

Whole day i was listening to music with game sound off and running with spear but for once i opened a game chat and they were all mad lmao

Even my teammates were mad for getting mvp-s with just melee

Its not hard to play against if ur not dumb and have ears

[rotund raptor]

There are even ppl that rage cuz u use sniper like wtf

I use what i like

[thin valve]

Most of them cant hear me doing 49303398 movement techs

That u can hear a miles a way

[thin valve]

Maybe in casuals. Ranked is literally 9 snipers out of 10 players after legend

[rotund raptor]

True hearing is so necessary

[thin valve]

But they are indeed mad when u are BETTER sniper than them

They hide with snipers like i cant see their white blink from 5km away

[rotund raptor]

I mean when its the start and rank is reseted so u have to play some games with a lot of low rank guys

[thin valve]

And when i prefire slide them they rage

[thin valve]

Yea indeed. Casual and low rank people want me to use smg

[rotund raptor]

Tbat use lmg or whatever and sniper or shootgun is like a banned wep for them

[thin valve]

But if i use smg they gonna be even more mad

My vmp ttk being milliseconds will make them quit

[thin valve]

I cant stand an lmg users

[rotund raptor]

I also like to use marksman

[thin valve]

My heart drops to my chest when i see one

Im like sorry for them lmak

[rotund raptor]

But sometimes i mess up and get nervous so i miss lol

[cobalt urchin]

Finally reahed tenured professor 😭 🙏

[thin valve]

Not nervous but as an aggressive sniper, my first 10 games of a day is frustrating

[cobalt urchin]

I crawled through afk teammates for this, it's finally over

[thin valve]

I miss every shot

(then i switch to melee)

Hearing spear inspect animation from behind😈

[true mauve]

It has so many menus on the main menu, it is hard to navigate. Why is there 100000 of same gun 😭

[indigo solar]

That's bc it got patched

It was a bug with the douser grenade

You could do some funny stuff tho

[rotund raptor]

That sick

[pulsar coral]

I think CodM should be in the off topic chat 👍🏼

[twilit thistle]

😭 its said if you spin around three times and use the emoji " " it just might be moved.

[tropic swift]

Back again.. OOB stuff in Deathsingers.

1. Full Gate is floating in air high up.
2. The Area you get the Sword from in Crota is located high up in the air.

Theres also basic geometry from Bridge Crossing.

Alongside the Shriekers Hall & D1 Secret Chest Room. (Present in Bridge, Deathsingers & Crota).

[indigo solar]

I'm still mad you can't stand on the oversoul

[tropic swift]

In Crota, only thing floating in the air is this.

Also a good view from up here 🫡

[twilit thistle]

Im mad it didnt look like a green sun like it did in the other games

[pulsar coral]

You can do it for me lol, I’ll hit em with a Jaren flash bang 💥

[tropic swift]

Yup 😔

[twilit thistle]

So much for oversoul bathing 😔

wait can awoken even get a tan 🤔

[thin valve]

Yea its annoying

[true mauve]

I installed and im instant lost

[true mauve]

43 kills is good? Am rusty

[white yew]

Kabr time is impossible to beat on kabr

[thin valve]

Yea decent

[karmic chasm]

Not bad

[true mauve]

I keep trying to double jump and throw grenades instead of ning clones

[karmic chasm]

Now do 63

[true mauve]

Where is my melee button?

Is there a melee button?

[serene ingot]

O button on my controller

[true mauve]

Doesnt work, it makes me crouch 😭

[serene ingot]

you can crouch???

[true mauve]

Sorry wrong server

[twilit thistle]

and wrong channel on said server

👀 wait today is the 21st, which is an odd number. Morgrans time.

[calm vortex]

So I was testing more traits and Eager Aspirant doesnt work how I thought it would with the description. "This damage bonus will gradually deplete until it reaches zero" but it means the stacks gradually deplete, the actual damage bonus remains 50% from stacks 10~1 lol

[bold thunder]

Bro unlocked a whole form of movement in DR

[karmic chasm]

Just get the katana and sprint around

[twilit thistle]

I was today years old when I found out in shifting gates, umeko's super can destroy all the little servitors

[prisma nest]

thats a weird looking destiny rising

[indigo solar]

No silly, tan is an exo

[wide dagger]

https://tenor.com/view/yungviral-gif-13520736873899911730

[twilit thistle]

Actually it is possible, but it wouldn't do what you think. More likely to kill the awoken, it probably doesn't look like a human tan. Awoken biology is "structurally no different from that of Homo sapiens," but their pigmentation is radically divergent. If an Awoken spent a week on the beaches of Old Florida, they might not come back bronzed but they’d definitely look a lot less starlit and a lot more sun baked.

[indigo solar]

I think you missed the joke :(

[prisma nest]

heh baked

sunburns are horribleeeee

[twilit thistle]

100% did not miss the joke, I thought of @ing you when I originally wrote it.

[prisma nest]

🤔

[pulsar coral]

All bots lol

[true mauve]

Id hope but it is ranked mode

[prisma nest]

does codm work with a switch controller

[twilit thistle]

[prisma nest]

(ive played plenty of codm)

Prism Dancer

Crown Of The Sovereign

Etheric Light Donation

[true mauve]

Idk anything you just said

[pulsar coral]

Still bots in ranked. Not until the highest elo usually you’re get real players. I haven’t played in about 1.5 years but. They’re ranked system is easy to be max rank. After losing 1-2 matches you’ll get placed in a match with all bots and just crush. I’m not calling out bots to give you a hard time. I know you’re a beast in this game. I’m saying because I spent a lot of time playing codm

[prisma nest]

D1 vets understand 🤕

Ceres Galliot

Imogen's Fire

Pallas Victorious

[true mauve]

Extreme easy to be max rank, I installed and did it last time within like 2 weeks got bores uninstall. Gonna do it again and prob drop it in a week

[pulsar coral]

Why uninstall and redo it?

[true mauve]

Just no good side games around

[prisma nest]

Elders' Sigil

Dreadfang

ngl dreadfang should be in d2

[pulsar coral]

Shooter wise I would agree. I still feel like there is a type of content that is missing from Destiny Rising that players would really enjoy playing not sure what.

When you’re cooking in cod or codm, it’s an absolute blast. That’s not really a feeling I’ve felt while playing DR. Idk if anyone can relate.

It does feel bad when you’re getting crushed in pvp in cod games as well. Dying back to back.

[true mauve]

It is hard to make content for DR. The skill gap between players is huge because mobile vs pc. It takes alot of effort to play touch because of all the inputs and swipes, it gets tiresome after a minute for average person

There can still be best players in game on touch but majority of touch players are still adjusting

[thin valve]

When i got back from codm to drising after not playing it for a week i was trying to slide cancel

And inspect weapon

[true mauve]

Weapon decals when fr

Give us a reason to buy wpn ornaments

[pulsar coral]

I think Jaren’s exotic ornament should have a kill effect like codm

People would buy. Like an angel and demon pop up when it kills. Same with his sig1 and ultimate

[true mauve]

I cant believe no one is mad about arby nerf

[pulsar coral]

It’s a relatively small nerf I feel

[pulsar coral]

Please netease lol

[smoky oxide]

Helhest still op

[true mauve]

Maybe, I feel like its lowkey a gun rework and they just said some fancy stuff to explain the change in how it feels

[pulsar coral]

Dude I remember when they buffed Estella a ton just to compete with HH lol

[empty turtle]

This game is so boring rn

[true mauve]

Didnt do squat for estella but make her op in PvP

Can shoot while casting like what the

[pulsar coral]

Since this is the only game I play, I still enjoy it 😃

[twilit thistle]

I think estella needs another buff.

[true mauve]

Will be OP for a very long time. No quick fix because she has best weapons and best kit 💀
