doom-eternal

[idle swift]

I saw that, that might mean base settings feel too slow but that’s awesome

[red oar]

I seriously find the gameplay fast paced. It’s going to be faster on release so it doesn’t seem bad to me

It’s not insanely fast but it was just a showcase

[lyric reef]

AG2 is absolutely easier than AG1, i beat the dlc (granted on easy mode) without ever dying. not once. i did AG1 on easy mode too and died a couple times but AG2 i never died and finished with 14 extra lives

[woven moth]

I felt cheated from TAG(2)

The first half was great, but the second...not so much

[thin galleon]

Speaking of dlc I just started tag 2

I was thinking about a meat hook movement mechanic and was surprised when I saw it in the dlc

[woven moth]

I got noodles

[fierce aurora]

Anyone playing on ps5? Psn oldskl90

[woven moth]

Mee

I need a trophy

[sleek stratus]

Is anyone able to help answer a few questions? I can’t explain exactly without showing pictures so maybe dm?

[livid vessel]

which is harder to kill?
a stalker
or a hell hunter
without its weaknesses

[woven moth]

The screaming Bois from TAG(2)

I miss the crucible

[azure oriole]

i was boutta come in here askin for help on an arena in the holt then i decided to do it one more time just to see if i would beat it and i did

[woven moth]

Yay

[azure oriole]

the problem is ive now died 5 times to samur maykr 3rd phase

[young mango]

The cacodemons?

[spare junco]

I'm dying on hell on earth on un bro it's so over for me

[gray rivet]

That encounter towards the end is rough

[spare junco]

I'm gonna blame it on lack of upgrades and equipment

[gray rivet]

Is that where you're dying? That encounter with 2 cacodemon. 1 arachnatron, and 1 more caco?

Almost at the end

[spare junco]

I think I've died twice there

I died once in the tunnel with the arachnotron on my first try

[gray rivet]

Word, you good

[spare junco]

The furthest I've made it so far was Cultist Base and I died to the Mancubus when I got the rocket launcher 💔

Maybe I'm overconfident but I think once I get the full loadout back I'll be good for the most part

[gray rivet]

Yea it's rough 😭

[spare junco]

I practice Gladiator and Icon of Sin a bit before I do their missions and I'm good

[ocean quartz]

my own current plan is

100% the game and DLC1 on UV
then do the same on nightmare
and then once ive done that and am confident
i'll try doing ultra nightmare

[spare junco]

I'm confident on everything pretty much except the early game when I don't have everything, up to like super gore nest or mars core, Gladiator which is easy to practice obv and Icon of Sin which is a bit harder to practice 🥹

the arena with the pain elemental, doom hunter and cyber mancubi in taras nabad too actually

Maybe I'm just really overestimating my skill idk

[young mango]

First levels are hardest yeah, that’s a popular consensus

[spare junco]

Are there any specific sentinel crystal upgrades I should focus on or do they not matter as much

[strong lotus]

depends what you need

[spare junco]

wym

[strong lotus]

Well what run are you doing

[spare junco]

Ultra Nightmare

[strong lotus]

you would prob either focus the health upgrade or the loot magnet one first since you are insanely fragile in the early game

[strange gale]

punchswapping, multiblast, and good chainsaw & crystal routing carry thru the first 2 levels, and quickswapping becomes available as soon as it's relevant so i'm not sure the gap between early and mid game is that big

flaming hook is also v easy to route into the 3rd level

imo it's more likely that early game is considered hard because people suck at it

they learn quickswapping because that's the easiest and most popular tech, and nothing else

[strong lotus]

mid-late game lets you get away with a lot crap the chaingun shield and ice bomb is the biggest culprit

[gray rivet]

Yea I always go for loot magnet first

[spare junco]

Exultia done

[gray rivet]

Bet

[spare junco]

back to where I was

Gotta be more careful around the mancubi this time

[gray rivet]

Try to Circle the perimeter of the arena. If I may give a tip

[winter ice]

Yo need one more on pc to help with some achievements

Anyone down?

[young mango]

yeah to a certain extent I suppose, a lot of peoples experience with quickswitching ends at pb rocket, so I don’t know if it quickswitching would be the deciding factor, but definitely a factor, but the late campaign difficulty is definitely disproportionate to the slayers kit

[spare junco]

Beat the arena that killed me last time

[gray rivet]

Sick

Any encounters you're scared of? @spare junco

[spare junco]

Well

the one I just died on 😭

[gray rivet]

Where'd you die 😭

[spare junco]

The one immediately after, the first encounter with whiplashes

[gray rivet]

Fuck

Yea I fuckin recite my strats before that one

And have a heat blast from the plasma rifle ready

[spare junco]

But besides that, Icon of sin, the one in Taras Nabad with the pain elemental, doom hunter, and two cyber mancubi, gladiator maybe, the big one in arc complex with cyber mancubi again with the kitchen area, that's all I can think of atm

[gray rivet]

Gotcha

[spare junco]

I'll probably load up my main Nightmare save before those and practice them

oh a couple of the encounter in Final Sin, mainly the ones with multiple Tyrants

I believe I can get it eventually tho 🗣️

[gray rivet]

Yea final sin encounters is kinda annoying. I just say fuck it and use the bfg and crucible. On a couple deamon encounters

[spare junco]

Icon might be my biggest fear between all three runs

[gray rivet]

Saving throw?

[spare junco]

I'm not great at the boss in the first place and I really don't want to lose the run on the final boss 😭

[spare junco]

is that the rune that saves you from death

[gray rivet]

Yes

Maybe activate at the boss fight

[spare junco]

Probably will if I remember. I'm not that good at the fight so I'll practice it beforehand

[icy ferry]

I finally beat super gore nest master level on UN today and got golden shotgun

[spare junco]

I doubt I'll beat the main campaign and tag1 before Friday like I want to but I'm thinking about just doing tag2 because I can definitely do that in like a day or two probably

[spare junco]

I'm just giving up I might come back to it later

I'm gonna move on to 2016 platinum instead

[ocean quartz]

just started trying out the seamless campaign mod
holy goodness i didnt realize how smooth it'd feel to get rid of all those little cut aways

[storm eagle]

Hey everyone, check out the new mod by Saleem, it's called Rancid

[austere bronze]

but don't do it before me, that's cheating

[storm eagle]

Yes wait until M1 plays or else

[austere bronze]

yeah, i got ties to a certain italian maffia man

[brazen lodge]

pls can someone tell me where i can find the "present to compute" option

[tame topaz]

Video options.

[brazen lodge]

listen it will sound stupid but my doom is in diff lunguage could u pls send a screenshot or tell be where exactly it is pld :]

[tame topaz]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1263254250729771099/1340970988103536650/image.png?ex=67b44c0d&is=67b2fa8d&hm=7d366932d06d1817cf0f8768a0f80b915fa4db937ca9089bdc09f9b22e335f68&

Look out for your language equivalent of this.

[brazen lodge]

AHHH THX that means im stupid

idk why i can't stream doom on discord

even with this setting turned off

:[[[[

[tame topaz]

Try setting window mode to borderless. Alternatively, just screen share the entire display.

[willow belfry]

SLOB or just a LOB ?

[brazen lodge]

ill try

[willow belfry]

Just how bad was pre need TAG1?

[brazen lodge]

still nothing

[austere bronze]

slob

[brazen lodge]

like my weapons get like blury and Doom starts to lag

[tame topaz]

Give it a second to temper itself.

IIRC it's a little rough for a while then starts behaving properly.

[brazen lodge]

still lagging and it gets worse

[austere bronze]

pre nerf tag1 wasn't really harder than what tag1 is now

[azure oriole]

it was more annoying because you had to dealt with hidden tentacles

[willow belfry]

I heard something along the lines of "you can't one cycle towers"

[austere bronze]

yeah

or at least it was hard to do so

[austere bronze]

sounds like the average bunny level...

[waxen adder]

I just finished the box boss fight

Shit sucked

How did they make such good normal fights but then have complete ass boss fights

[last hamlet]

It had to be this way

[waxen adder]

I also don't know wtf happened I'm playing horrible

"One day you wake up and you can't run anymore your legs just give"

[austere bronze]

yea, happens sometimes, it sucks

[vague dock]

Can anyone recommend any sites that can give me the dlc at a low price?

If they accept my country's currency

And if it's safe

[faint ridge]

AFAIK most changes were reverted, though not all

[ocean quartz]

ive said this a few times and im still so confused

for some reason when i have tag2 enabled my fps drops significantly
not even just getting into a campaign or anything
even just being on the title screen has way lower fps

i have absolutely no idea why

[magic lark]

Has anyone managed to platinum eternal?

[old minnow]

Multiplayer trophies?

[magic lark]

Yes

Multiplayer trophies included

[old minnow]

I mean i 100% doom but didn’t plat it on my ps5

[magic lark]

PC?

[old minnow]

Yeah

[old minnow]

A while back on my friends

When I left my ps4 in the states

[magic lark]

Easiest way to collect the muliplayer trophies?

[waxen adder]

Just don't 🙏

[magic lark]

Nah i need to platinum the game before dark ages lmao

[old minnow]

Get a friend

[fringe torrent]

They are genuinely not hard to get, you can get them legitimately if you just try to

[old minnow]

True but easier with friends

[fringe torrent]

Less fun

[old minnow]

Way faster

[austere bronze]

not legit

[old minnow]

Need someone to help me get one of these doom plat on ps5 💔

[fringe torrent]

I'd rather spend a lot of time having fun than little time doing a chore

[queen idol]

The smartest way if I have to fail un, I cut the voices entirely to diminish the annoyance

Just to focus angrily

I've checked my time in the game, 296 hours.

Pfew

[gray rivet]

What's the farthest you gotten in un

[queen idol]

In tag 1 rn. The blood swamps
This is my farthest so far

I practice in nightmare again. I've died where you have to follow the wolf, in a small area to fight the marauder, and with that stupid tower eye ball make me lose focus

[gray rivet]

Gotcha, I just started tag 1 for the first time in a while actually. Died at the double marauders

[queen idol]

Uac facility?

[gray rivet]

Yep

You do main campaign UN?

[queen idol]

Y e s

Blood swamps is the hardest

[gray rivet]

Can't wait to get there

On nightmare

[queen idol]

The third level is "easy" for most parts. But the samur fight ain't complicated than the icon of sin

[gray rivet]

Gotcha

[queen idol]

I got gold camo weapons skin in nightmare difficulty for the TAG 2

I feel rewarded to get them

So...I have to rectify the mistakes i did yesterday.

[austere bronze]

what mistakes did you make?

[queen idol]

Well...rn I died to the Marauder with the stupid eye ball tower, where you have to follow the green wolf..

Again

[austere bronze]

dang😭

[queen idol]

I have the saving rune, but that zombie slap my back.. damn
Another mistake

Yeah...

I'll try again the run in nightmare to rectify

I check videos how to finish this quickly

[frank drum]

just tried to play the game with controller recently, its like playing it for the first time lololol

[azure oriole]

do you know how to punch swap

[frank drum]

i have the jump mapped to one bump, tis better in that way

[azure oriole]

what is one bump

[gray rivet]

Yes that's how I do it, if you mean back button paddles

[frank drum]

i mean the shoulder buttons

[gray rivet]

Ah

[azure oriole]

i have it mapped to A

thats the jump button for all the other games

[gray rivet]

Hello I'm trying to change and improve how I approach marauders. All I do currently is ssg-ballista and nades

Sticky at the feet work right? I remember you mentioning a damage window or something?

[gray rivet]

What controller are yu Using?

[frank drum]

xbox series

i tried mapping the weapon wheel to the R3 button and the dash to RB, but i ended up change it

[gray rivet]

Since I died to those double marauders I need to adapt and improve

Gotcha, that is probably efficient but feels weird I take it.

R3 wep wheel

[azure oriole]

double marauders can be taken out the same way a double marauder can

[queen idol]

No & I tried. Idk how to since I'm a controller

Teach the ways please

[azure oriole]

single*

[azure oriole]

you need to have weapons binded

[queen idol]

Oh

[frank drum]

just shoot a bfg to one marauder

[azure oriole]

if you go to your slayer controller layout in settings you can change it

you might notice there's "N/A" binded to something

replace it with the heavy cannon just so i can teach you punch swap

its pretty simple you just fire the weapon, punch, press the bind for the weapon, then fire again

make sure to use the precision bolt when you fire

using that will take out turrets very fast

[gray rivet]

I guess I might as well. Thanks

[azure oriole]

once you have it mastered

[slow sigil]

and generally you can hold either fire or the weapon mod button too

so it fires frame 1 (or turns on frame 1 for the pb)

[austere bronze]

by shooting a ballista shot near his feet so the splash damage (yes, the ballista got a tiny bit of splash damage) hits him, he'll falter

that is however only if you've dealt sufficient damage a few seconds ago

the damage threshold is however low, 280

[azure oriole]

if you want to punch swap other weapons make sure you try to fire a little later than with the heavy cannon because other weapons are heavier so you cant fire them immediatly

[slow sigil]

can't you just hold fire

[gray rivet]

Got it, thanks m1

[azure oriole]

you can

i didnt knownit worked like that

[queen idol]

I tried and it is complicated as it is for the first time...@azure oriole

😔

[strange gale]

works for ssg and bal—rl, sb, and pb have to be manually timed

[azure oriole]

probably shouldnt have had you start with one that requires a mod

try the ballista

[queen idol]

Well I have to practice with a cheat infinite ammo

[azure oriole]

for sure

infinite ammo cheat crucible

[queen idol]

I finally did it!

I have to press almost both joystick!

Insane!

[azure oriole]

crucible doesnt have infinite ammo with the cheat on unfortunately

it used to

[azure oriole]

alright then try it on turrets when you run into them

dont know why iD had to change it

[queen idol]

Alright :]

[gray rivet]

Niiice

[queen idol]

I can even change to spam the balista. But I have to change key bind..

[azure oriole]

you can also probably bind weapons to whatever you have for mission information and crucible

[austere bronze]

if you want some fast combo that's not very hard to pull off mechanically, this may be good https://youtu.be/KbX6oCSduas?si=j7u8-1gcRELcxMXt

it is kinda hard to bait his attack like that, but it just requires you to stand correctly

[azure oriole]

i need help on samur maykr fight again

im on the third phase and i get killed everytime

[austere bronze]

by the cacos??

[azure oriole]

no the real third phase

although i am ashamed to admit that i did die to the cacos a lot

i tried to jump on one of them like the cool guys do and fell off and died

i did it on ultra violence dont know why i cant do it on nightmare

[gray rivet]

Ah, yea I see what you mean. Baiting his attack out is part of it

[azure oriole]

might be able to send you some gameplay so you can tell what to improve

[austere bronze]

which part is that?

[austere bronze]

that'd be awesome🔥

i might not be that quick to respond since i'm in london

[gray rivet]

Anyone know why the headshot "pop" noise happens sometimes even tho I don't get a headshot?

[queen idol]

I've completely bullied the baron with super shotgun punch swap 💀

[gray rivet]

I love doing that lolol

[queen idol]

I had 2 blood punch with and he is gone in 3 seconds

[austere bronze]

ssg punch swapping with blood punches as your punch is absolutely amazing

it wrecks anything in no time

[queen idol]

So that means...

The archi is gonna have a BAD TIME

[austere bronze]

yuppers

[queen idol]

Just gotta be careful with possessed ones tho

Aka the possessed baron

[strange gale]

baron damage faltering is a little weird

[austere bronze]

remote det falter even after a damage falter🤤

[strange gale]

normally, all damage you deal to an enemy feeds into a single "bucket" that triggers a falter when it's filled

barons have two of these

[queen idol]

It is very effective when you ice bomb one

[strange gale]

you can damage falter with ssg and then do it again right after with specifically pb

doesn't happen with any other weapon to my knowledge

completely unique to barons too

[queen idol]

My balista completely wreck a mancubus...

So that means the eye box bosses would be very effective

[strange gale]

ballista punch canceling is very good there yeah

[azure oriole]

i just recorded some gonna take a while to upload

[austere bronze]

if you wanna do even faster ballista punch cancels, you can have your heavy cannon/plasma rifle/chaingun out, press the mod swap button, swap to ballista before the mod swap actually happens

called mod swap cancelling, it's useful sometimes, and fun to do

[strange gale]

with tas execution you can do that even faster

[young mango]

True!

[strange gale]

there's a single frame in the ballista cooldown anim that allows for a much earlier bringdown than usual

[austere bronze]

i don't think DoomCraft is a tool though

[austere bronze]

wonder how that even came to be😭

[strange gale]

so at like 2 fps you could make that very consistent

[azure oriole]

i just beat the 3rd phase

all thats left is the second spirit shield one

i dont think it'll be too hard but then again i thought the same about the 3rd phase

2nd try

and that concludes my tag1 nightmare playthrough

[austere bronze]

oh nice

[queen idol]

Oooohhh

And yeah I've finally taken out the eye tower very quickly

[azure oriole]

now for tag2 on nightmare

i know its a little easier than tag1 so im not that afraid

depending on how easy it is it might be the first UN i go for

first arena and i accidentially activated the screecher buff twice😔

[queen idol]

This one might be complicated a bit

[azure oriole]

now the screechers are dying for fun

👍

i existed on the other side of the fountain and apparently i have hurt the screecher zombie enough to kill it

mb

[austere bronze]

eh, you just press the mod swap button, and immeditaley swap to the ballista

then you can punch cancel faster

[azure oriole]

in my opinion its already pretty fast

[austere bronze]

yeah, but it can be faster

[azure oriole]

can get 3 in 1 second

but you can also die in 1 second so maybe it is a good idea to do it faste

[austere bronze]

nah, it's not that fast

i think at least

[azure oriole]

i put the ballista where my mod swap used to be

only because its right below the heavy cannon bind but i dont even use that combo anymore

but im used to it being there now so cant change it again

[queen idol]

Alrighty then

[azure oriole]

thats a lot more stuff

maybe i should try it

oh yeah m1 how did you bind the dossier button to something else

mine is defaultly binded to the button with 2 squares on it and i cant change that one

[queen idol]

@azure oriole I've pass the eye tower and marauder successfully!

Not dying

I've tested the map 2 times to be certain

[azure oriole]

where is that at again

[queen idol]

The green wolf

Part

[azure oriole]

i dont remember there being 2 marauders in one of those

i remember 1

maybe its a master level

either way gg

whenever you see a turret just kill it immediatly with 2 PB shots

no point having something extra to damage you

[austere bronze]

i can't

[queen idol]

I... just

Destroyed a tyrant very quickly

I am speechless with the blood punch plus the SSG spam is insanity

[gray rivet]

Niice bro

[queen idol]

I've never knew it was fast to wreck a tyrant this fast

It take me a several time to kill one with rockets spam

Lock-on-burst

[sleek basin]

I think tyrants have a 30% damage reduction from the lock on

[queen idol]

Ooh...

Welp I died with the eye box bosses...

So all the trials are done without dying

But except the bosses box

Damn....

[storm eagle]

good work!

[queen idol]

That's a great commitment what I'm doing fr. Every slayers here helped me so far to get rid of things like eye towers very fast

[storm eagle]

The turrets?

[queen idol]

Yes

[fringe torrent]

How do you take them out? I'm curious

[queen idol]

Punch cancel swap

[fringe torrent]

I one cycle them by just shooting the sticky bombs really fast, seems like the most ammo efficient method to me but I may be wrong

[queen idol]

It's up to you

[fringe torrent]

Ah that's neat. I have no idea how to punch swap so I won't be able to utilize that for a bit

[storm eagle]

I do a lot of rocket punches and stickies. They're so fun

Good ol' pb+ballista works well too on them

[lyric reef]

Despite knowing that there are green wolves thst guide me and sorta help me in the dlc I have a panic response to look around me everytime I hear a wolf howl cause I think there a marauder around

[storm eagle]

[woven moth]

Hi

[storm eagle]

hi!

[austere bronze]

hai

[glad geode]

hy

[woven moth]

Sup

[queen idol]

Btw does arbalest mod inflict more damage to eye box bosses in the blood swamps?

[livid vessel]

When you first started playing Doom, what difficulty did you play on?
I don't want to die
hurt me
ultraviolence

[glad geode]

Nightmare

[livid vessel]

💀 What

[glad geode]

what

Ohh wait which DOOM specifically

[fringe torrent]

Eternal channel

[glad geode]

SHhh I'm stupid

But yeah my answer still remains Nightmare
I haven't played any other difficulty in Eternal

[wanton atlas]

I started my first save with UV. I remembered how difficult Nightmare was in the beginning of Doom 2016.
Can safely say this game is less punishing on Nightmare. Much easier to recover from a mistake.

Resources are also a lot easier to recuperate during a fight. You got like, 5 health back from a GK in 2016- which would often set you up to take more damage from incoming attacks lol

[azure oriole]

uv

but i had a bad time because I thought remote detonation was going to be as busted as 2016's version

Then I switched to lock on burst and the game became a cakewalk

[queen idol]

In my very first beginning is doom 2016 in hurt me plenty. Then ultra-violence, when introduced eternal, ultra-violence and nightmare

My father told me I played doom 1993 but I dont remember since I was a kid

[young mango]

Nerfing remote det but buffing lock on was the weirdest choice for sure

[queen idol]

I use lock on burst against those jumpy maniac dread knights

3 rockets and they're done

[fringe torrent]

I blood punch them, think that deals with them on HMP

[red oar]

Nightmare, it was actually fun to me

[queen idol]

Game journaliat: marauder is too hard!!!

Doom fanbase and marauders: git gud.

Ultra-violence was more of a warmup tbh...

Once I understand the pace of combat mechanics and spawn positions

But the aim...big off

[spare junco]

I just loaded my UN save after I thought I lost a run and it picked up right before I died but I had no weapons, no dash and I don't think I could double jump

the only thing I had was Blood Punch but I couldn't punch

[young mango]

Yeah that happens if you force quit the game after your death

Basically to prevent people from cheesing it more than they already do

[spare junco]

Makes sense, I assumed that's what it was

[last hamlet]

Something I never got is, why did they choose to make tag 2 so much easier than everything else?

[last hamlet]

Like you’re supposed to play it after the already quite challenging base game and the significantly harder tag 1

[azure oriole]

inconsistent buggy piece of trash ai

[last hamlet]

Did we fight the same guy?

[wanton atlas]

A large portion of the playerbase complained about TAG 1’s difficulty, so ID dialed it back a bit with TAG 2. Unfortunately, by doing so, many hardcore Eternal fans were disappointed with it.
Started a bit of drama in the community. Wasn’t great.

[azure oriole]

pacing

[strong lotus]

Ssg+ ballista fodder

[austere bronze]

pb+sticky fodder

[strong lotus]

seriously I heard how hyped up he was like a year or two after the release of eternal

[austere bronze]

i don't think people really ever thought of him as hard

only a few people which the doom community thought of as most people

[azure oriole]

what if id software dropped an official final sin master level for free the day before tda drops

[austere bronze]

would be absolute fire with a final sin ML

[azure oriole]

or ports mod support to console

final sin is already a ml

[azure oriole]

nah

it can be more master

true

final sin base level is on difficulty par with cultist base ml

[untold path]

The dark Lord pissed me off. I hate how he would barley have the green eyes and let me hit him

[azure oriole]

yeah he's like that

[young mango]

ID not having official content for eternal for so long I wonder how they’d approach the hypothetical creation of a new ML with knowing what the playerbase is capable of in mind

because that obviously influenced them post launch, I’d just be curious as to how far it’d go

[untold path]

Honestly same

People are always finding ways

[azure oriole]

you have to fight 2 icon of sins

my keyboard is invisible

[austere bronze]

oh tru tru

base game tormented earth

[untold path]

Yea that is true. But it would be way harder on nightmare

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1182839472329609347/1341160064400101467/IMG_7791.png?ex=67b4fc24&is=67b3aaa4&hm=34fbaa3bced2d2a814bf0cf3cf4fa7fb87647335cd0ef90508efb0783593522a&

how did this happen

[young mango]

Tbh I think a lot of people playing MLs do them on nightmare anyways, it’s like peanut butter and jelly

[untold path]

Yea true

[woven moth]

So, the marauder, was it essentially the demons trying to recreate the doom slayer? Or was it the failed projects of the slayer?

[azure oriole]

the marauder is from DOOM

[woven moth]

Yea,but the lore behind it

What is it?

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1334054884533866529/1341161480904638465/Screenshot_20250217-133644_YouTube.jpg?ex=67b4fd76&is=67b3abf6&hm=39e5a1520781041c2c0890b867cc6dcb911ec4a33ddd79b5c79e0eb4f45043cb&

he's from DOOM

[austere bronze]

night sentinels that didn't side with doomguy in the civil war

[woven moth]

I see

[azure oriole]

who died

[untold path]

That's not a marauder

[azure oriole]

that's the marauder from DOOM

i think its the marauder from a tribe called quest

[balmy ruin]

random question, is there any reason as to why the revenants just wont stop screaming

[queen idol]

Because they're insane.
Just shut them up.

Except the Doot. With moderation

[wanton atlas]

They’re probably in immense pain, constantly. Their codex entries for 2016 and Eternal aren’t exactly pleasant sounding.

[azure oriole]

I have a question i was trying to get the gold bounty lord by beating horde on nightmare and i made it to the second arena of the holt and died i need some advice on how to do it

[orchid latch]

Theyre probably in agony, they are mainly bone and it probably is agonising to even walk

[azure oriole]

they're screaming in pain & fear

[zealous ice]

dark ages will be superior than all doom games

[idle swift]

they'll likely learn from the best and worst of both games, they cooked BOTH times just absolutely freeballing the development

[woven moth]

Hi

They're screaming in cyber

[fierce aurora]

Anyone looking to boost the doom eternal multiplayer trophies on ps5? Psn oldskl90 got a group but timezones are awkward

[spare junco]

hell yeah beat cultist base on UN

[ocean quartz]

im the type of lame person who takes my games as seriously as possible

even normally silly ones like drg

[spare junco]

Are there any arenas I should worry about for Doom Hunter base and what's a good strategy for the doom hunters since I'm not as confident on these three and without my full loadout

[strong lotus]

Lock on is really good for the boss (second phase) and if you need a safe opening to blood punch use ice bombs they give you a couple seconds to land a blood punch

It's mostly keeping your distance and use a mid-long range swap combo like pb rocket

good luck

[spare junco]

Made it to the Doom Hunters and I lost saving throw before it 💔

I believe tho I can do it

Hell yeah Doom Hunter Base done

[strong lotus]

nice

once you get the chaingun shield the game will become much easier

[spare junco]

I never used it on my nightmare playthrough

[spare junco]

I died on Super Gore Nest to tentacles in the poison sludge with a mancubus

I hate this game

[ocean quartz]

wait elena richardson had more longs than those in the arc facility????

at least i think?
im just now seeing this looking for them

[spare junco]

any time I die on un all the energy just gets drained from me

[woven moth]

They did say each slayer skin was a different universe skin

[ocean quartz]

they said what

[woven moth]

Ye

Big old doomverse

[ocean quartz]

while its probably meant to be revelled in my personal idea on how doomslayer himself feels about those logs is just completely uncomfortable
elena making speak for the first time in years just to tell her to calm the fuck down

[spare junco]

I really want to get un for at least the main game done before Friday but I don't think I can at this rate

[ocean quartz]

wait so
a question

do we know what that weird blue token thing doomslayer tossed onto the hell priests was about?

[wanton atlas]

Iirc those tokens are bound to each Priest’s guardian, granting them immortality. If the guardian is killed, the Priest is no longer protected from harm.

Ah yeah, I just searched to confirm. Apparently the information explaining this was cut from the game. Odd. I just remember finding this out through the lore channel.

Wonder why the codex was cut, given its importance to the story.

[azure oriole]

Always bugged me that mecha zombies never got their own codex entry

[wanton atlas]

Wait really? Guess I didn’t even notice that, lol. Damn, even the basic zombie has one.

[azure oriole]

Least they remembered to make a toy. Which tbh I find less interesting!

[polar osprey]

maykr slayer killing the khan maykr :

[willow belfry]

Fucking Glad

And I had him dead to right...

Ugh should have done a pratice run instead of yoloing him

[sleek basin]

I finally beated ultimate nightmare and got my butter skin

[willow belfry]

At this point I'm even doing Cultist 100% easily

How many attempts in @sleek basin ?

[sleek basin]

I don't know but alot maybe 25

[willow belfry]

Ugh, I reckon I'm around the same

I guess I need to practise after Mars since I always get impatient then

[white gale]

finally got this one cycle down to a reasonable success rate

[white gale]

excellent work

[sleek basin]

Thanks

[willow belfry]

Worst part of all my UN deaths is that I open a run on Nightmare and easily beat that specific encounter

CBF doing another run today... damnit

[sleek basin]

Finally the muarader took what he deserved

[sleek basin]

Same I beat them up so easily on nightmare but in UN it's a whole different story

[white gale]

most of the difficulty of UN is the stress of knowing you gotta go through all of that if you die

it's hard but the best way to get better at it is to just avoid thinking about it

[strange gale]

embrace chuddha's wisdom and simply stop caring

[sleek basin]

Agree
I destroyed the icon of sin once I stopped thinking about losing

[misty stump]

I've always hated that mf

I'd clean out the whole ass fight no issue but would use bfg just to kill the fucker

[tame topaz]

Nothing ever happens.

[radiant zenith]

Estan disponibles los servidores en nintendo switch?

[queen idol]

It's just me or tag 1 is relatively easier the more I play it?

In nightmare difficulty

[buoyant matrix]

I mean if you play something more your gonna learn the patterns

[queen idol]

better timing and outplay the enemies, before they outplay you.

They react just quickly and do a maximum damage.

[slow sigil]

Guys is it me or do tasks becone relatively easier the more i get trained for them??

[queen idol]

I mean, it's somewhat we got used to it

Not even journalists can do.

[red oar]

Journalists tend to not play the same games over and over. I think what you mean is at face value the levels for Ag1 are not as bad in terms of enemies

It’s just a lot more than the base game; is that what you mean?

[queen idol]

Yes.

It's relatively easy in AG 1 because you have your whole arsenal at your disposal

[red oar]

Yeah I can see that, most of the time it does take time to get used to something new but that last boss in the first dlc was a challenge/still can be

[queen idol]

The lock on burst for the rocket launcher is a great way to deal at the first stage tho.

Samur's attacks are repetitive and easy to remember.

[red oar]

It’s the final phase where you have to watch out for drones and lasers that I’m thinking of

[polar osprey]

that video of a journalist just doing single shots on the part where ur stuck with a tyrant in tag 1 😭

[red oar]

Yeah that’s a prime example. They have to play a lot of different games, so I understand they’re not going to know everything for just one

[grave sphinx]

Hello guys, just started playing Eternal, is there any way to turn off the hitmarkers that appear when i get hit? It’s really distracting

[polar osprey]

theres a hitmarker when you get hit?

[polar osprey]

but they do overexaggerate the game's intensity alot

[grave sphinx]

Yeah

I don’t know how to call it lol my English is kinda broken

[polar osprey]

you mean the red marker around your screen?

[grave sphinx]

Like when i get hit, there’s this red indicator that shows where the shot/attack came from

[grave sphinx]

Like in this thumbnail

[queen idol]

I screwed up the 2 archie part in the blood swamps.. bro I did so well 2 times yesterday. No time to die by these assholes

And I died by my own rocket by a shield soldier...

Guess it's not my day

Guess your true enemy is yourself

[polar osprey]

yeah, just gotta look around and make sure nothing is close to you

well, if you want to be aggressive, make some things close to you

and make sure you use the right tools for the job

[queen idol]

Yeah there are moments I forget and I equip the launcher too close the enemy. Forgetting is the worse part of myself that happens alot.

It can be rectified...

Again

[polar osprey]

its alwyas best to take your time until you can take less of your time

[queen idol]

I'm taking a short break.

[polar osprey]

thats a good idea

[queen idol]

Yesterday was the day but today ain't the day to do UN.

[polar osprey]

taking a break is important if you dont like it anymore

[queen idol]

True

[polar osprey]

dont do a "this game is fucking aggrivating, just one more retry"

do a "ok game's starting to get a bit frustrating, ima take a break"

helps you clear up and do less mistakes, its why one day a boss seems nigh impossible and the next day you defeat the boss easily

[queen idol]

I try not to overthink and told myself it is not my day, I'll retry the whole sequence of blood swamps

Later

It can be frustrating, but I gotta get used to understand my frustration and when to stop.

[woven moth]

Hi

[gray rivet]

Hi

[austere bronze]

hi

[glad geode]

hi

[azure oriole]

hi

[clear spade]

Oy

[wind cove]

Hi, I have 128/133 milestones, but the "Argentas Paladi" milestone says 58/80. How is that, is it a bug?

[honest trout]

hi

also why tf did they change the Hell Barons, i understand the change between the Cyberdemon and Tyrant but why the Hell Baron, its still the same

[fringe torrent]

Because they never got a major redesign beforehand

[frank drum]

Because there is nothing more cool than a monster with lava in its entrails

[azure oriole]

wish they were pink and had green blood

[queen idol]

Welp. Died 2 times against these stupid eye boxes

My chances in UN are very minimal

[spare junco]

It only counts campaign and battlemode

Just things that were in the game at launch

[queen idol]

Alright. The arbalest mod does a lot of damage against the eye boxes

Good. It'll be easier

[gray rivet]

You Got it

[queen idol]

I will so.. I try the holt. And I died bruh

I died at the urdak base in the holt map.

This map would be a lot more difficult

And I guess I have almost no problem with blood swamps so far. The holt is a lot harder

[somber crystal]

Weird question: Can pianists hypothetically beat this game?

[azure oriole]

nah i dont think they can

[queen idol]

The holt arena under the bridge part is where I struggle most with these whiplash spectral bastards.

Even with my 2 BFG shots and died still. My autistic ass is kicking in for more trouble

[honest trout]

beat the game in Ultra Nightmare with a piano

[copper trellis]

Hi i searching player for eternal coop

[spare junco]

Beat Exultia again for like the 7th time

UN is fun

I died on Cultist Base again I'm going to go fucking insane doing this

[gray rivet]

Same thing happened to me, I just stopped and persued other feats after dying on cultist base 10 times on UN

[spare junco]

I'm just really pissed off with myself because I made it to Super Gore Nest and died on the stupidest fucking thing posisble

[gray rivet]

Where are you dying and what from? Maybe there's a strat that can be formulated

[young mango]

I think nerves is the biggest issue for new players on UN, it’s easier said than done to get rid of them, but trying to think of multiple ways to tackle the situation is only beneficial if you have the clarity to act on one instead of getting caught up in them and just not being able to do anything

[spare junco]

I died on the poison sludge with tentacles and a mancubus after getting the blue key

That's the most embarrassing death I've ever had

[gray rivet]

Bruh one time I died on UN on cultist base from blasting a manc with a rocket 2 feet from my face

I was so mad like, whyyyyyyy did I do that lol

[spare junco]

I know I can beat UN it's just a matter of not doing stupid shit 😭

Once I get my full loadout I'm probably fine, there's a couple encounters I'm gonna practice but besides that I know I can do this

[white gale]

By the time i got had UN down i was playing through everything until SGN on autopilot

the first few levels are probably the hardest and most boring part of the run

[livid vessel]

UAC vs ARC who would win?

[spare junco]

Died on hell on eart 💔

[obtuse pumice]

I just had the absolute worst UN death. I was on Doom Hunter Base, and I died because lava got poured on me. I didn't have any time to react, I was at full health and in the blink of an eye I was dead. i hate that i always die to some BS like this

[glad geode]

Where is there that's lava?

[obtuse pumice]

the one little area where it gets poured down. i forgot about it and then i paid the price

its where you encounter the carcass thing

[glad geode]

Well if you forgot about it wouldn't it be your fault?

[obtuse pumice]

I don't think I said that it wasn't my fault but yes it is, I just never died to that before and I've been playing for a long time so it was very unexpected, lol

[glad geode]

Apologies

[gray rivet]

Lemme guess. That room later in the level with 3 cacos and a arachnatron

[spare junco]

yeah

[gray rivet]

Yep! That's one of my warning ls for that level. Easy to forget

[spare junco]

I've died an embarrassing amount of times there

[gray rivet]

Hi, I like doom

[glad geode]

greetings choom

[spice ridge]

I play doom on Nintendo switch

[cloud harness]

Doomin time

[austere bronze]

i wish...

[paper merlin]

you dont like to see me when im doomin

[azure oriole]

[queen idol]

Still not gotten used to the arena in the holt under the bridge...

They keep wrecking my shit fr

I keep being cornered and die.

What am I doing wrong to rectify my chances of dying?

[zinc drift]

Anyone on doom eternal ps5 up for some battlemode trophies? We need one more person.

[low ingot]

Is Doom eternal getting Console Mod support soon?

[faint roost]

Probably

[low ingot]

Would it be like Maps or Skins And Maps

[faint roost]

Maps

[low ingot]

Is it confirmed that it will only be Maps

[faint roost]

I don't knowin

[fringe torrent]

There's no confirmation at all it's coming to console

[faint roost]

Yea if it would it be already out

[low ingot]

Probably will with most Bethesda games getting mod support though

[fringe torrent]

Doesn't mean DOOM will have to follow suit

[faint roost]

Because they're already working on the dark ages

[low ingot]

Mod support isn’t that hard

[fringe torrent]

Yes it is

[low ingot]

Just do it like Fallout 4

[queen idol]

@austere bronze I have a problem with the holt map, in the arena under the bridge, I need advices how to not getting wrecked.

Been 3 times I died there

[azure oriole]

send gameplay

[queen idol]

Then I have to do the holt again. If I die there again in this arena of insanity

[azure oriole]

well i dont know what arena you mean

[queen idol]

Well easy to say

I keep being cornered.

The part of urdak base where you have to get at samur

[azure oriole]

is it the one where after you finish it you gotta press a button to activate a jump pad to get you up

is that the bridge you mean

[queen idol]

Exactly

[azure oriole]

yeah thats the hardest one

[queen idol]

3 spectral whiplash are annoying as fuck

[azure oriole]

all i can say is if you even slightly feel like you're being overwhelmed then move to somewhere where the demons aren't for a few seconds

that helped me plan my attack

[queen idol]

I died at the part I have to crush the buff totem.

It's where they wreck my shit

And wasted 2 BFG ammunition

[azure oriole]

i recommend to use single rockets and ballista on the specter whiplashes

[queen idol]

Got it.

[azure oriole]

aim at the ground around them with the rockets for splash damage trying to get a direct hit isnt ideal

[azure oriole]

do you know how to meathook jump

[queen idol]

Yes

I jump 2 time, I meathook then release and jump higher

Pretty neat method.. but I didn't use really often which caused my sudden death

[azure oriole]

yeah try to do that when the buff totem spawns

[queen idol]

Understood

[azure oriole]

also do that to get away from barons

barons will hunt you down pretty successfully unless you just jump over them

[queen idol]

They can't do much beside throwing argent energy balls.

Easy to dodge

[azure oriole]

they can also slam into the ground

are you playing on nightmare

[queen idol]

Yes.

Always to warmup

And being certain

[azure oriole]

i must suck then because if all you're worried about is fireballs

[queen idol]

Rn I do a last warmup in the blood swamps, till I realize the arbalest do extra damage to the eye box bosses

[young mango]

Remember when dread knights did 4x damage for the meme

[azure oriole]

4x damage

[young mango]

Yeah

[azure oriole]

they dont do that much in the first place

or maybe i forgot since i always insta stagger them with lockon burst

[young mango]

They could pretty much one shot you from a full stack on older patches

Granted the player is on NM

their ground slam registered multiple times in the same slam

[queen idol]

Glad I know I can avoid most fights in the blood swamps.

The part with the lake of fog with a possessed arachnotron

[young mango]

and because it registered as multiple attacks, it could bypass barrier of death as well

[queen idol]

Piece of cake to do

[azure oriole]

spam the lock on burst and pretty much every possessed heavy is non threatening

except the mancubuses

fireballs fly at at least 80 mph

and do ridiculous damage

[young mango]

Possessed Mancubi got nerfed in a later patch, I think maybe 6.66, because they used to be able to tank like 4 lobs and now they only tank about 2

[azure oriole]

should have a legacy tag option

i'd like to experience the pain people went through when tag first released

[young mango]

legacy everything would be great so I don’t have to down patch to speedrun

[austere bronze]

i have no idea which arena that is
but like Aidenc said, sending gameplay is the best way for me to help out

sorry for a delayed response, in london🙂

[young mango]

bring back having to delete your profile.bin to make TAG1 work 🗣️

[azure oriole]

its the one with the buff totem

[austere bronze]

still no clue xd

[azure oriole]

[queen idol]

And I died by the turret with marauder part in the blood swamps...off to a great start

My punch cancels is so utterly inconsistent it's disgusting

[azure oriole]

i also died there but only because i forgot there was a marauder

[young mango]

Just keep practicing

[azure oriole]

you should probably try to practice on ultra violence or something

that has half the damage as nightmare so you dont have to worry as much

[queen idol]

Will do.

[queen idol]

I've been doing this run like 7-8 times

In nightmare

[azure oriole]

i mean for punch swapping

[queen idol]

Oh

Yeah should I have worked on this one. Cuz it's inconsistent

[azure oriole]

i know it could be hard to focus on trying to master that when an imp fireball can take away half of your 75 armor

[young mango]

Practicing stuff in an environment without enemies first is good, gives you a feel for it, then integrating it into stuff you don’t consider that hard, and then integrating it into the stuff you normally play

[queen idol]

It's the pressure I have to diminish to master the punch cancel swap. Cuz it can screw up

The cancel punch swap is practical. But I shouldn't against the marauder if I dont have a blood punch

[azure oriole]

theres no need to punch swap a marauder anyway

you can do one of those crazy lock on grenade precision bolt things or simply ssg+ballista

[young mango]

https://youtu.be/DiH2MCBi1O8?si=WaJECapahNfL0f-9

Very impractical but it is punchswapping against a marauder

[austere bronze]

punch swapping can be neat, if you do something else too
https://youtu.be/E-uaL35JAro?si=yNSVFidyuLM8FAcO&t=43

[austere bronze]

honestly, just wait with learning to punch cancel

it'll fuck you up more than it does good while running UN

[old minnow]

Almost

16 hours straight of doom eternal

[austere bronze]

holy

[ocean quartz]

does ANYONE know what the console input for the skip cutscene bind is

if i could just "bind x skipcutscene" that would be ok but i dont know what the hell it's called

i dont wanna make an autohotkey script just so i can play doom eternal and skip cutscenes

why can you not just rebind this normally

on an unrelated note
i have officially 100%ed the main campaign on UV

yay

[queen idol]

Bruuhh I'm stuck in a bug infinite loop where demons spawn indefinitely

In blood swamps tower trial

This is so fucked up

Now I am uncertain for my UN run

I mean, there are no archie whatsoever. Just stuck there slaying indefinitely

[gray rivet]

What happened

[queen idol]

I did a trial to get the last half of the shield to get into the boss fight.

But I ended up fighting endless fodders eternally

Which the game broke

[gray rivet]

What ended up happening tho

Oh, so you exited out?

[queen idol]

I killed the revenants way too fast.

With the BFG

Once they're dead. Only fodders stayed so I got stuck there indefinitely

Coding bug

I swear...if that happen in my official UN run, im gonna lose it

[young mango]

If you ever try doing UN TAG2 as well, be prepared to get soft locked in immora

There’s a common softlock where one or both of the imps in the final arena decide to spawn out of bounds and they’re required for the arena to end, so you get soft locked, also you can get enemy capped to shit because immoran soldiers don’t despawn, so make sure to kill any if you see them, getting enemy capped by optional encounters a normal player can just walk past is hilarious lol

[queen idol]

I died quite a lot in tag2 nightmare difficulty to get the golden weapons skins. It took me a good toll on my mentality

[young mango]

I’ve played tag2 sooo many times

[queen idol]

The duo marauder with those annoying zombie screamers

I had nightmare fuel

[young mango]

I forgot that encounter existed

[queen idol]

Using the sentinel hammer was my restraint against these zombie screamer buff

Now I'm not certain to do my UN in the blood swamps. I feel nervous af to experience these coding bugs

[young mango]

I don’t have much general advice for blood swamps but avoid tunnel visioning on the boss fight, they’re not going anywhere and they hardly do anything on their own, get the regular enemies out of the way if you need to

[queen idol]

The arbalest mod does the job

I make sure these eyes don't shoot a single ball

[ocean quartz]

i wonder what hayden meant when he said the UAC had the seraphim since before "your time"

what does that mean?
before he became the slayer? before he got hired for that security job? before he was born?

or at least i think it wa sa security job i dont know

i really thought i was gonna die at some point whOOOOO boy
have i gotten good?

[azure oriole]

yes

congrats

[queen idol]

Yes

Now nightmare difficulty

[gray rivet]

Nice woik

[queen idol]

Btw congrats

[ocean quartz]

dlc1 is my practice for nightmare

im gonna 100% it and then go for that

[queen idol]

Well I can't do 100% nightmare without dying. Just focusing on the main story.

I am exhausted mentally doing blood swamps nightmare difficulty, trying not to die.

I need a good rest.

[balmy ruin]

the marauders? you and me both

[queen idol]

Mostly the right gate with the wolf part you have to follow

The left one I have no problems so far. Most fights can be skipped

[austere bronze]

the soggy sefinitely gives some uncomfortable encounters

wtf

[tame topaz]

Soggy.

[austere bronze]

i meant to say "the doggy definitely" not "soggy sefinitely"😭

[tame topaz]

Moments before the sog.

[austere bronze]

doom eternal is a better game with the sog's inclusion

[balmy ruin]

ahh that one sucks, i tend to have struggles there too but the marauder at the buff totem always gets me

[austere bronze]

honestly, the buffed marauder can be dealt with pretty easily

when he runs at you, he'll go in for a green eye flash, and when it's done, just dash away so he runs at you again

[azure oriole]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/880661471103713302/1341568307815256074/image0.jpg?ex=67b67859&is=67b526d9&hm=545f8213f1c832706a1dc3c85695eed596021cc0d82612dba8f04f2a03b924fd&

[austere bronze]

you could pull up the shield to negate any potential damage too

[queen idol]

Or you can shield dash the marauder tasting his own medicine

[tame topaz]

Is it stupid?

[azure oriole]

if only you could pull out your shotgun in 2 nanoseconds and get a cheap shot on him

[queen idol]

The classic shotgun tbh. Never seems I use it against a marauder.

[azure oriole]

i just tried to enter campaign mode on doom 2016 and the game crashed

[queen idol]

Oof

[azure oriole]

why is odom 2016 so faulty on xbox series s

i know its a generation ahead but goddamn

[queen idol]

Bugs always exist

[azure oriole]

it shouldnt be so buggy that the game crashes sometimes when i try to reload after dying

[queen idol]

So. The combat shotgun against a marauder has a few chances to get me killed. It does not have the big damage to actually put him down quickly.

[azure oriole]

i was talking about the super shotgun

[queen idol]

Ooooh

My apologies

[young mango]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1077069514505728152/1277810732230250628/Untitled_video_-_Made_with_Clipchamp_70.mp4?ex=67b5e4bb&is=67b4933b&hm=3ec224d408b1ebc78e46cee11237f08893d56f29ed4c4e34fa46f8ce35043612&

[queen idol]

Also I did something that caught me off guard.

There was a zombie behind the marauder, when I shot the zombie with the balista, the marauder didn't pull out his shield

[queen idol]

Straight up bullying

There was nothing left

[azure oriole]

why was it standing still

[young mango]

Commands

[azure oriole]

was it just frozen in fear after seeing the slayer

[queen idol]

I remember there was a fast lock on burst with the rocket launcher + grenades. I tried to do but the lock takes too much times

[young mango]

yeah

[queen idol]

It can be effective sometimes if the marauder has been hit by the shockwave to lock him. But it is inconsistent

[young mango]

It is not

[queen idol]

Then I must do it wrong

I use SSG, then lock, then throw a grenade beside him

Guess I have to do it fast

[young mango]

The ssg as a starter is not recommended

There is the method of hitting his greenlight and spamming lock on while expending both frag grenades, but the fast lock on method you mentioned earlier is preferred

[queen idol]

It is the fastest way to do. But I end up screwing up rockets into his shield smh..

Bad timing..

Precision bolt does the job?

Since it has quick swap?

[young mango]

Yes

A lot of things provide Fast Swap Effect, precision bolt being the most practical in this context

[queen idol]

Then I'm gonna practice

Rn I cuddle my fluffy and cuddly cat

Every slayers out there cuddles their adorable pets

[azure oriole]

he aint stupid he just soggy

[faint roost]

I fucking did it

I completed horde mode

[sleek stratus]

When I do nightmare mode, what are all of the suggested mods/upgrades I should choose? Weapon mods, praetor suit, weapon upgrade and runes?

[queen idol]

I didn't beat horde mode in ultra-violence... now I understand why I resent the holt arena

[gray rivet]

Praetor- fast dash, quick swap. I reccomended concussive blast

All of your other choices really are up to you

[sleek stratus]

Thanks, I been seeing people using combos of guns on stronger enemies and it’s a bit confusing even though it’s simple if that makes sense

[gray rivet]

I gotcha

Yeaa it takes time to learn

[vague dock]

I have already asked this question but. Can someone please tell me where to buy the DLC for a cheap price

(if that site accepts Gcash)

[real merlin]

Hey real quick guys, how do I get the cultist skin?

[strange gale]

if you get fse from the reload, then it might work if you spend 2 nades lol

[queen idol]

Me when I fight the dark lord: just a extra step version of marauder..

Me when I fight a possessed marauder: worth it

[strange gale]

it doesn't

[spare junco]

My gf wanted to try playing and she made it to the subway in hell on earth on UN. She has never played a Doom game

[azure oriole]

sounds like potential to me

[spare junco]

That’s what I’m saying

I think she could beat it given enough time and practice

[young mango]

You can probably wackswap the ssg tho

[vague dock]

Damn so I really gotta pay ₱500 for a DLC:(

[azure oriole]

would wait for a sale

depends on what you want it from

[vague dock]

I use steam

Trynna find a cheaper alternative

[azure oriole]

This then ^

-# I was gonna make an isaac reference but you probably wouldn't get it

[azure oriole]

i cant one cycle a marauder like that

[young mango]

If it’s any consolation this felt inconsistent as hell to pull off

[azure oriole]

my finger dexterity cant spam the grenade key while doing the pb+slob thing

https://youtu.be/R7LUhys4ZEw?si=qjSJMYN2AcpOr7rJ

This is the only 1 cycle I can do

Btw thanks for the one cycle strat

Kinda sucks it doesnt work as well on previous patches because of the inconsistent blood punch

[young mango]

2.0-4.1 are legit the worst patches for one cycling

no ice bomb trick, no consistent blood punch ( or super punch for that matter ), and no ( mastered ) pb starters

[spare junco]

I'm getting so tired of playing Hell on Earth and Exultia

[vague dock]

F*CK IT I BOUGHT THE DLC

Jeez man why don't these sites accept Gcash

This better be worth it

(only part one tho F*CK!)

[spare junco]

Did you try looking at like g2a or does it not accept that

[eternal pawn]

anyone wanna play a few games of battlemode on PC? almost have all the achievments

[austere bronze]

it's not that good of a 1 cycle anyways

it's kinda boring and takes 7 rockets to kill 1 marauder

[white gale]

Eh with how rarely marauders are used outside stuff like ML’s, 7 rockets is pretty good for getting rid of them quick

[austere bronze]

but then you can't use any rockets until you chainsaw the next time, which is just a bit annoying

it works fine, but just experimenting with him and doing other stuff is more fun, and not really any harder either

[waxen adder]

Urgh the holt is so hard and I'm so bad

[strange gale]

my take is that it doesn't really matter unless you're speedrunning which involves ammo routing, or there's some other priority that requires you to conserve rockets

saving them for chaingunners is a reasonable idea, it's a consistent one hit kill

your other options are to use another source of splash damage or to circumvent the shield through movement

[austere bronze]

my strat for them is just praying that they die when all heavies are dead

[strange gale]

if you want to be brutally efficient you could probably do pb -> bulldozer for a one cycle

pb isn't required but using bulldozer on a set timing (falter) as opposed to any given frame during a green flash should make it more consistent

i'm having a hard time thinking of modded content where you have to be strict with ammo usage, let alone official content

i don't think it's that high of a priority unless you impose some kind of restriction(s) that make it so

de feels like a game where the devs want you to keep an eye on your resources but not so much that your gameplay turns into a resident evil 3 no damage run

[austere bronze]

true

i'll probably mess around with some sticky/ssg combos with SMS into full auto at the end, when i get home from london

could work nicely

[queen idol]

Good morning slayers

[vague dock]

Nope

[subtle magnet]

is it me or slob is very inconsistent to do back to back

[austere bronze]

it isn't inherently inconsistent, so it's probably just an issue with your execution

[subtle magnet]

that also

its been a bit complicated for me to do it consistently but im starting to get the hang of it

[austere bronze]

fair, getting into tech is challenging

[polar osprey]

3 lobs in a single cycle?

good god

wait that isnt 3 lobs

yeah ok its 2 lobs and a rocket

[queen idol]

I've finally succeeded the eye box bosses without dying!

But I died at the marauder buff totem... smh

How could i mess it up after many successful attempts..

And I found many things I could counter the possessed spirits taking the host when the demon spawn. The blood punch is very useful

[azure oriole]

proof?

[queen idol]

Idk what I did but I've done a fast d-blade charge

[round geyser]

Lets go I just finished the main campaign un run

Finally I have full golden set

[queen idol]

Congrats

[round geyser]

Honestly I'm marking Cultist Base as the hardest fight in the entire game

I'm not even kidding I beat UN on like 3rd or 4th try and almost all deaths were at cultists base

[queen idol]

I can't imagine my struggles there.

But I died at exulta

Shouldn't have done the slayer gates smh

[round geyser]

Skipping 2 deaths to arachnotrons in Hell on Earth

[round geyser]

Yeah I skipped every slayer gate there was

[queen idol]

Was my biggest mistake

[round geyser]

Exultia isn't that far in tho

[queen idol]

Also I can punch cancel swap with the precision bolt?

Stock ofc

[round geyser]

I mean yeah as long as you press hr swap button after you press swinging button

[queen idol]

Alright good. The stock experience was atrocious

[round geyser]

You have to shoot>swing>press the swap button for hr

Basically not worth it on controller

Which is why I had to go with other combos on my UN

Playing Eternal on the controller limits quick swapping combos but it's not necessarily bad. It requires more thinking.

[queen idol]

I mean I was practicing the cancel against those stupid turrets eyes

To be quick and done

[round geyser]

You can always freeze them

[queen idol]

Smart. That's what I did for the first

And glad I didn't die to the eye box final trial

The arbalest take them out pretty quickly

[round geyser]

Honestly those cubes are easy

It's that hell Knights force you to move around

[queen idol]

To make it easy, the arbalest saved my ass.

I tried without arbalest and I struggled a lot

And it took much attention and time.

[round geyser]

Typically Balista + PB works too

Occasionally ssg+mh for armor

[queen idol]

The arbalest mod actually make them unable to attack you when they open their eye

[round geyser]

(Cannot wait to destroy my controller on the UN samur boss fight)

[queen idol]

4 arbalest shot and they're done

[queen idol]

The holt uh...

I resent this map a lot.

The arena under the bridge you had to climb up was my grudge

[round geyser]

I hate samur because of the eye balls that prevent me from running on lower levels

If I could at least kill them

[austere bronze]

jump on lower levels then xd

[round geyser]

But no they will respawn

[queen idol]

Take one eye ball. It'll prevent to spawn another

You have much freedom

[round geyser]

Problem is Hayden hates me so much most of the times he teleports there or blood maykhr is waiting patiently to kill me there

[round geyser]

Yeah I figured it out. I just forgot it. Thx for a reminder.

[queen idol]

Knowing their position is essential since it's pretty much the same they do.

[azure oriole]

Respawn time for the eyes is moronic

[round geyser]

I never had problems with 3 first phases

It's just the last spirit phase that is insufferable

[queen idol]

You're welcome

[round geyser]

And the constant pressure of Pain elemental and dread knight with speed 2 potion is insane

[queen idol]

When Samur is abt to summon, shoot a BFG before the cutscene starts. Timing sucks but can be practical

[round geyser]

When you add the fact blood maykhr and eye balls slow you down temporarily

[queen idol]

I didn't have difficulty against samur at the end. He was pretty much predictable

But the holt arena bridge under is the death of me.

The hardest level of the holt

[round geyser]

I mean it's probably because unlike the main campaign which I played like 8 times (2 custom challenges) I only played through TAG1 and 2 once as of now because I wanted to finish the story of eternal

(Also no UN achievement so game 0/10 /j)

I never dedicated so much time for any game

Except Eternal

This game is 10/10 no questions asked

[azure oriole]

Nightmare Horde Mode, done

Got that sweet skin

[fringe torrent]

What did you think

[azure oriole]

I did not go for bonus waves but outside of that it was very doable

Spirit buffed marauder was not as bad as I expected

It's just marauder but acting like a kid in a hot wheels car, nothing new

[austere bronze]

yea

possessed marauder is overhyped

[azure oriole]

Golden Bounty Lord skin is

I only did this for that skin ngl, I don't care about the lower score I got for it

[fringe torrent]

I mean the Horde mode itself

[azure oriole]

I know, and yeah as I said, it was not too hard outside of Bonus Waves and I found it very fun

Tho the bonus waves... LORD. Even on the lowest difficulty they do not mess around

[fringe torrent]

Oh a rare Horde fan, neat

[azure oriole]

Not a fan, just a guy who enjoys it and accepts it for what it is

[solemn sapphire]

Question: i have played through the game once on ps4 but i now want to go for the platinum on ps5, if i do a playtrough with the extra lives will i only have to play through the game once?

[azure oriole]

Is horde mode reviled?

[young mango]

Horde mode kinda ruins itself to a certain extent by spamming extra lives at the player

[azure oriole]

And it being permadeath and shit, but if you quit out you just get back to the start of a mission with lives back so...

[fringe torrent]

There's a buggy achievement you'll need to use level select for to avoid the bug; level select is unavailable for ELM so I'd just run through the game twice

[azure oriole]

With that said, I don't see any proper reason to hate it at all

[gray rivet]

Fuck yea

[azure oriole]

I only do doom challenges for good skins really
I also did those two secret encounters in Blood Swamps (banger level) to get the Wetland Warrior

I did increase difficulty to Ultra-Violence to get on the grind
