How to be good human: Uv light and drop kicks
How to be good hunter: not scientifically possible
stable mist
throw your life away and it's possible to become pro nh by gaining experience

Of course it’s possible to become pro hunter. But because a pro human can counter most of a hunters attacks makes it quite difficult
stable mist

pro survivor=
learn how to use the best loadout.
Essentially, twink and tryhard simultaneously
mystic frigate
A human can basically use:
Kick and two handed for insta kill
Dropkicks with a very aggressive camera drag
Air assassination that also has camera drag
Up to two flares at a time making pounces useless because a pounce is most effective at close range
Poor hunters got it rough
plain wave
Good hunters can utilize tackling more effectively as their actions override the humans’ actions
mystic frigate
Tackles are extremely easy to dodge
The widow is very wide to jump over a tackle
I’ve tried some fancy moves tying to land tackles at an unexpected angle but even then. Just a simple jump is all it takes
plain wave
I meant that hunters can interrupt dropkicks and DFAs through tackles
Not necessarily "interrupt" but tackle at the same time and stop the DFA / dropkick from happening

How to he good hunter: tackle toxic spit after every tackle

quiet brook
No you evade a tackle and you get tackled again
If 2 hunter pounce at the same time the human insta dies cause the game doesnt know what to do
fierce storm
Yeah, you can even get pounced mid-animation. You know, when you literally can't aim at the pouncing hunter
Though the instant death thing is kind of a trend. A pounce cancelled for any other reason than uv light (ie. The hunter leaving before the pounce is properly interrupted) causes instant death. Hence a pounce interrupted by another pounce instant kills.

I just realised that the Deadeye's Crossbow has a shorter reload time so it's a tiny buff for BTZ I guess.

Well still crossy can not compete with last wish running 3 crossbows was once a viable option now if you run 3 lw you can just destroy the hunter + lw has better range faster reload it can penetrate multiple targets and it just demolishes a nest

So I just won a btz game by killing all the nests, but I didn't get a hunter gland
Was it because I had low lives?
( I had 1 )
vale tinsel
That's kind of daft. It should be a 100% drop if you win imo.
sterile garnet
Agreed
vale tinsel
I say the percentage could go up in increments depending on the nests you destroy.
0 Nests = 0% Drop
1 Nest = 20%
2 Nests = 40%
3 Nests = 60%
4 Nests = 80%
5 Nests = 100%
So you at least have a chance to get a reward even if you don't win.
elfin river
If you could balance the Human and nerf one thing about them, what would it be? For me, nerf Tackle damage from 30 -> 25.
stable mist
uh
elfin river
I know it’s a stretch
But cmon
Human Tackles legit doesn’t have a cool down, only weakness is their exposed to Zombie Tackles
Plus, you can’t 2H + Tackle the zombie if they fail a GP
And of course, changes or negatives effectiveness for the Human in many other situations.
stable mist
I'm just an average fella but basically
instead of solely nerfing the human, buff the nh a bit too..
firstly insta tackle back (it's back in DLR)
human attack range reduced and jump slices set to the same range as normal slices
heavy damage 120>100
tackle can stay as it is.
remove autobalance
make it impossible to dodge a tackle once you're airborne and have already jumped/have been in the air for an amount of time
hunter running speed increased
bow and gun headshots doing increased damage
ground pound AOE being a sphere instead of a half-sphere
new mechanics?;
gp and dropkick at the same time: both deal reduced damage but neither is totally ignored. (currently gp has no effect if a human dropkicks at the same time)
add claw knockback. No stun, but the humans are knocked back enough to fall off things like poles.
questionable changes that I'm not so certain of:
reduced knockback on other humans when a friend is pounced/tackled nearby.
elfin river
If I were to buff Zombie, not really anything huge but change a situation so the zombie doesn’t feel powerless, I would honestly do this: Zombie just being dropkicked and recovering can insta-Tackle a oncoming Human at a 65 degree angle.
In front of the zombie
Not the sides or behind
Just strictly in front so no Humans can really dropkick chain or give the zombie some space. My reasoning for this change
stable mist
insta tackle means being able to turn back and tackle again while still in recover animation after an evaded tackle

Really?

I’m just pissed that if my uv drains and I’m out of sprint and on the ground I’m fucked
Or if they dodge the tackle
Cuz u can’t tendril when uv is drained

well on that case what you can do is like claw activate the gp and cancel jump around repeat those motions and when some1 gets too close just gp
its like you're "prefiring"a gp
lone prairie
Ah ok how do you cancel jump agian

as for tackles thats where movement comes handy if you can do really fast zigzags dodging becomes impossible

sometimes humans can auto dodge

pearl ermine
hey, so im pretty new to pvp and id really like to get into it, the few hours i've played i've really enjoyed, but i have some questions:
-
how much does weapon damage matter? is there a certain point where melees have a certain optimal hit-to-kill for every attack against hunters? or can i just use whatever I have that coincides at least pretty close to my level?
-
should i bother with modding/upgrading weapons? do elemental upgrades work as they do on normal zombies? how does each mod type affect the hunters?
-
is there some must-haves for pvp? such as equipment & weapon combos?
-
is there a specific spot i can get p.o kopeshes? or do i just have to hope i find one? if the latter, is there a known farming area for them?
-
what's the best way to farm cash for shop buys? should I even focus on buying from the shop or should i just focus on finding weapons in the world?
-
I'm currently LL 22, so I can only 'max' (10/25) two things, and then put 2 into something else. is maxing health important? is there a certain threshold i should get to? or should i just focus maxing damage
-
what's every move in my basic skills I can use against night hunters? I've seen dropkicks and death from aboves used on them, how many more are there?
-
how does dropkick endpoint calculation work? I've seen videos of people dropkicking a hunter a mile across the map directly into spikes, does it lock onto spikes somehow?
thanks to any help!
also pls someone tell me theres a way to disable aiming sens slowdown
it totally ruins my aim

It doesnt. Weapon TYPE + playercount decides hunter damage, ignoring the actual damage stat, always dealing a set % of max health as damage, just like the hunter claw always kills you in 5 hits exactly.
-
Doesnt affect the hunter, but helps for the zombies guarding the nests, they are affected.
-
Uv light, zaids flares, grappling hook are basically essential. 4th equipment can be a shield, a night hunter booster, freezing throwabes, stun throwables. Your call.
-
No. Theyre hard to come by, requiring exactly survivor level 19 as far as i know to even naturally drop from dockets..
-
Shop weapons don't reach gold tier afaik. Search hard-locked chests and such.
-
Like i said, hunter to human and vice-versa deals % damage, no matter your max health. Invest in healing efficiency rather than max hp.
-
Tackles knock the hunter back if he isnt in animation, dropkicks work on him and kill him if directed at spikes or done 3 times in a row, drop attacks kill him, slides hurt him minorly, kicks hurt him minorly. Dropkick and DFA are the only locking animations.
-
Dropkicks lock onto spikes in the general direction you kick the hunter. It's iffy and can go pretty far on the odd occasion. Just experiment with the distance yourself.

thanks a lot for the answers, so the % damage thing applies to all weapons? even throwables? so i should pretty much invest into anything that isnt damage?
fierce storm
As for aim sens.. if you mean mouse acceleration, thats a windows mouse setting, and under controls there's a mouse smoothing bar you gotta make sure is empty. If you have a gaming mouse, check the pointer setting there too
Yeah, but throwables and DFAs wont lock onto the hunter as they do normal zombies, so they arent reliable for him. Only the night walkers guarding the nests
The throwables arent reliable, i mean. Dfa is trainable
fierce storm
Drop attack.
pearl ermine
ahh death from above
pearl ermine
yeah got it
and, I have never liked mouse smoothing/accelleration and I make sure its completely off in every game/os i ever use, so no problem there, im talking about how the game slows down your actual camera speed when you aim down
if my whole mousepad turns me about 400 degrees ingame normally, while aiming down i turn about 120 degrees with my full mousepad
fierce storm
During certain animations the sensitivity just lowers to a certain percentage of the actual setting, thats just how that is.
pearl ermine
thats super annoying
it's extremely hard for me to aim unless my sens is consistent
fierce storm
Oh, but it is. Down is always the same, middle is always the same, yet different.. it'll take more time, but you'll get it down, besides, you dont have to aim midclimb if you play your cards right
pearl ermine
ive also heard the kuai dagger is special, what's up with it?
dont have it, actually going to get it now
fierce storm
It builds a run speed boost up to tier 10 as you perform parkour animations for a short while each time
But knifes have incredibly short reach, desite being capable of dfa
You'll have trouble performing intercept attacks on the hunter.
pearl ermine
yea, it seems from the videos ive watched weapons really only matter based on speed and reach
fierce storm
Plus their percentage damage is also minim
For a viable kill the hunter would have to be stuck, bodyblocked by you
Lol
fierce storm
I guess you could say that.
pearl ermine
if survivors and hunters take % damage from eachother, does weapon damage matter for nests? or are nests the same as hunters in which they take a certain % damage based on type
fierce storm
As for firearms, shotguns help for goons at best, but the most viable options are crossbows and the last wish revolver.
Nests work in practically the same % fashion during btz.
pearl ermine
ok, so basically you should only worry about damage/mods/upgrades when you're facing npc zombes not including nests
fierce storm
Pretty much. They pack a serious punch, so tackle 'n stomp tactics may be in order
Though there are exceptions to almost everything
But thats advanced/refinement phase. Best get the basics first.
pearl ermine
ok, thanks a lot for the answers, this was very informative
fierce storm
Sweet. You playin today?
pearl ermine
I'm playing right now, in the middle of pausing the kuai dagger time trial lol
fierce storm
Oh, mind if i hop on in sometime soon? Ish
pearl ermine
sure, no problem
fierce storm
However, it appears your discord doesnt take any friend requests
pearl ermine
oh, maybe true, I might have turned that off a while ago since i usually get requests from random people
i own a popular discord so that tends to happen
also one last random question not really to do with pvp but i cant relaly work it out myself
do nightmare/hard actually have any reason to be played?
shy hearth
Weird flex but ok
vale tinsel
@pearl ermine Increased Legend XP. There's other reasons but I'm struggling to recall them atm.
brisk igloo
Increased XP like Jinn said, you will also get outfits for completing the game in each difficulty. Other than that it's just more of a challenge if you will.
fierce storm
Heccin health buffer bruh

does anyone wanna play with me?

Totally forgot about the outfits. Oops.

paper whale
Minor question why can my friend invade me but I can't invade him?
vale tinsel
@paper whale He probably has invasions turned off. Go into the options, then online, and check if you have it on or off, then tell him to do the same.
paper whale
That would make sense if he couldn't invade me. Problem is all the settings are as they should be. I just can't invade him for some reason
quiet brook
Did he restart the lobby?
Sometimes they bug out and no hunter can invade
Or is an issue whenever he tries to load in?
light oyster
One question up here
Which get the better dps?
(To bolatile nest,)
1.
1 poison bolt + 2 lvs of fire and electric melee hitting
1 electrical arrow + 3lvs of poisonous melee hitting
light oyster
Hmmm.. Cancel?
plain wave
The poison effect will stop if electricity triggers
light oyster
I doubt. Cuz when i hit something with green health bar(poisoned state), the 'boom' sound comes out and seems like deal more dmg
quiet brook
Its the opposite
light oyster
I could be wrong. Maybe i should see the electrical effect can be shown with poison effect at the same time
light oyster
Dk? Drop kick?
plain wave
Last Wish jump shots yikes
quiet brook
Or you can do dk and then windmill the nest and grapple cancel after every windmill
light oyster
I never gave it a thought that unarmed attack can deal lots of dmg too
quiet brook
Another op thing is heavy 1 handed weapons
Katanas
It takes 4 tackle slices to kill with a katana with angle sword if i recall
But they arent practical against the hunter
light oyster
I see. Must be helpful
But one curious thing
While i tackle between those slices, maybe i can do one slice instead of it
quiet brook
Yea what you should do is while you tackle slice the nest try to to switch to a 2handed weapon
light oyster
Why would i not? That's what i mostly think
quiet brook
Switch around
light oyster
Surely 1 slice deals more than one tackle
