uuuuuh, crucible or something

[hybrid turtle]

"crack demon"

[smoky gale]

criocble

[hybrid turtle]

I should use pk again

[potent meteor]

Honestly after the buffs huckleberry is actually crazy

I’m surprised I haven’t seen more people use it

I pair it with a heros burden that is only half decent because salad man hates me

[novel relic]

its because slow reload speed pisses people off

[potent meteor]

Pks and the auto reload mitigate that problem entirely

[novel relic]

it doesnt matter if its important or anything, it just pisses people off ALOT

[hybrid turtle]

I don't use on-kill perks much when running pks
I go all in on double smg swapping

[novel relic]

pve, pvp, a fast reload speed can make almost any gun feel good

[smoky gale]

what's curicbke

[novel relic]

besides scouts

[potent meteor]

If I somehow manage to run out of ammo in the huck I have another smg ready

[hybrid turtle]

double harmony I like
vorpal on some things

[spark moon]

Accurate

[potent meteor]

Only in kill perks I use are harmony

Submission shayuras

Actual god combo

But huckleberry is also really fun

[spark moon]

Any weapon that is flat with recoil is good to me.

If it's for a million range and shit recoil pattern then what's the point

[novel relic]

i mean, what are you gonna do if someone is more than 20 meters away from you with a pulse rifle or an auto?

[potent meteor]

Embrace the crack demon

Sprint straight at him with no regard for your life

[novel relic]

i also just dont like huckleberry because it doesnt make sense in pve

[potent meteor]

It does tho

[smoky gale]

I'm not the biggest advent of double smg anymore on pks
Duality/Multi, Duality/Extraordinary or Duality/Submission are my go-to nowadays
Duality, very versatile weapon, second favorite exotic under Trespasser

[potent meteor]

It’s supposed to be an add lawnmower

[novel relic]

it just feels wrong because i wanna keep rampage going, but i have to switch off of it to kill a major

or even just a base yellowbar

[potent meteor]

I’m honestly not a shotgun fan

[smoky gale]

Neither am I

[potent meteor]

I prefer my iota draconis or a gl if I’m gonna use a special

[smoky gale]

Duality is the sole exception

Mostly because I dig the visual and audio design

[potent meteor]

It does indeed sound sexy

[smoky gale]

the reload alone sells the gun for me lol

[potent meteor]

But I love the “never stop shooting” mentality that double smgs on pks brings

[spark moon]

I use shotguns solely as a tool to keep shotgun rushers at bay.

I tend to keep my opponents at around mid range. If not I'll not challenge.

[potent meteor]

Tbh that’s my favorite way to play

Which is why I like business so much

Because as I said earlier, when aim bad use more boolet

[smoky gale]

however i don't use titan much anymore
mostly void gemini hunter, my classic
Jade and an smg or even better, B-Breathing hung jury + trespasser

[spark moon]

If I'm ever in a hall then I'll bring out the shotgun and ape like hell. But it's not my preferred style.

[potent meteor]

I completely switched to titan this season

[smoky gale]

I have found that trespasser is my absolute favorite sidearm now

Favorite exotic tpo

[potent meteor]

Trespasser is cracked

[smoky gale]

tpo

[spark moon]

Trespasser is good

[smoky gale]

tpo

too

[potent meteor]

In pvp and pve

You can make it do illegal damage in pve

[spark moon]

I don't care for sidearms in pve

[smoky gale]

Stable, great stats and hella satisfying

[spark moon]

They just do nothing for me

[potent meteor]

And In pvp It’s just a solid gun

[spark moon]

Except forerunner.

[potent meteor]

Understandable

[spark moon]

But that barely counts.

[potent meteor]

The illegal trespasser build I have is mostly a novelty thing

[smoky gale]

Got my first fifterino a week ago with that bad boi

[potent meteor]

I’m definitely not bringing that into anything above hero difficulty

It relies entirely on chaining kills to keep surprise attack proc’d using quick charge

[smoky gale]

If I had surprise attack...
oh, crucible would feel my wrath

someone ping me eighty times whenever ada sells it again

[potent meteor]

Mods if I ping this man 80 times he asked for it

[smoky gale]

in pms.

[potent meteor]

But that’s not as funny

[smoky gale]

funny vs gettjng muted for 2 weeks because of spam

[proven minnow]

Simple:

N y o o o m

Apply a light weight energy smg for extra effect.

[potent meteor]

See this man gets it

[novel relic]

tfw you die instantly because they where actually 25 meters out instead of just 20 and they had a sniper rifle or linear

[smoky gale]

utilize cover and your speed advantage

[potent meteor]

You must embrace the crack demon

[novel relic]

yea i guess that makes sense

[potent meteor]

Cryoclasm, lightweights, and a whole lot of prayer

[spark moon]

This season's shotgun (I forgot the name) is probably my favorite right now.

[potent meteor]

That’s how you challenge at range lmao

[potent meteor]

Without remorse

Aka the boomstick

[spark moon]

It's lightweight so it's great for escaping, closing distances and it just has good handling.

[hybrid turtle]

do you have any idea how fast pks makes you

[smoky gale]

there's a strategy to aggressive builds like double pk behemoth and it's mostly centered around paying extremely close attention to radar and positioning, as well as making sure you got some teammates to assist in rough situations

[proven minnow]

Tfw theres a crack demon sniper thats somehow stuck to the fucken wall and just blaps you as you come into sight.

[potent meteor]

Who needs strategy when you have crack

But yeah agreed

[smoky gale]

not to mention, 25 meters? a single cryoclasm slide with pks sends you within 20 and most smgs have 20+ meters

[spark moon]

I'd imagine that crackheads have a strategy it's just crack infused.

[proven minnow]

Nah actually though, with PKs I never run directly

[novel relic]

not really. i did use them a little during momentum control last year to piss people off with double 750s

[hybrid turtle]

dunemarchers
stompees
transversives

[potent meteor]

I think when I use my crack demon build I subconsciously position myself way better than normal due to how aggressive I’m playing

[smoky gale]

people who wish to preserve a positive seasonal kd/lh

[hybrid turtle]

those, but with an extra 50 mobility on top of that

so dummy move speed, dummy strafe speed, and quickdraw/snapshot on all your smgs

[potent meteor]

Exactly, not me

[smoky gale]

Add 100 mobility, stasis and elemental capacitor

[potent meteor]

I’m like a .6

[smoky gale]

I really wish I had secured that fabled elemental capacitor moving target shayura
I could've been so fast

[spark moon]

Meanwhile I'm over here, a warlock, using vampires caresses in pvp

[potent meteor]

Based

[spark moon]

With my whopping 20 mobility

[novel relic]

hmm

[smoky gale]

Aren't those the healing ones?? Those are actually pretty good

[potent meteor]

Karnsteins are underrated

[smoky gale]

The healing is seriously potent

[hybrid turtle]

trying a dumb
coldsnap cryoclasm

[novel relic]

well, they sound cool, but they look likeyear one lego legs

[spark moon]

They are but only in pve really

[potent meteor]

Specially if you play super close

[spark moon]

We just talked about how I don't

[smoky gale]

vampire caress or karnsteins
confusion

[potent meteor]

Still tho

[spark moon]

I'm just a masochist and don't care for pvp much. I get in. I do things. I get out.

[smoky gale]

i barely touch warlock anymore

[potent meteor]

Karnsteins can still save your life when you end up in an unfavorable position

[proven minnow]

PKs + a lighweight SMG + catapult lift + any Titan sprint melee lets you do some FuNkY stuff and move across rooms fast. Though you really have to get used to it to useit effectively.

My favorite maneuver is to use the momentum to do 180° charge follow ups. Burst them down to half on the first pass and them slam into their back with a hammer (i usehammer since it does 120, so you only need to deal 80 with the smg.)

[spark moon]

PVP just makes me mad. I don't like playing a game that makes me mad

[smoky gale]

if you were a masochist you'd stay in pvp, so aight

[potent meteor]

Pvp used to piss me of a lot

Now I actually have fun with it

[spark moon]

No, I do master and GMs instead

[novel relic]

true

[spark moon]

[potent meteor]

Essentially I just realized that i don’t have to be the best or use sweaty stuff

So I just made my stupid loadouts and went to town

[smoky gale]

pvp used to be an issue for me even tho i still find it fun
but i've found that never playing unless i have someone in vc to play and vibe with seriously takes away the stress most of the time

[proven minnow]

Fun fact, Mida synergy stacks with PKs. So you can get bonus sprint just by having Mida and mini on at the same time. I love it on disruption

[smoky gale]

i cannot stand solo queue in the slightest
but i thoroughly enjoy playing with friends

[potent meteor]

I pretty much just turn on deafening music and go to town by myself

[potent meteor]

So what I’m getting from this is that you can become a crack demon^2

[smoky gale]

yeah i need ppl to talk to lol, music doesn't cut it for me
not to mention since i do try to play well, audio is fairly helpful

[potent meteor]

Same here I rely on audio a lot

[smoky gale]

i need to make myself watch the kill feed more
but since i usually don't, audio cues are my best tool of knowing where a nearby super is lol

[hybrid turtle]

[potent meteor]

But if I’m just having fun, and because I’m not exactly good, I just blast music and go to town

[potent meteor]

That’s going in the war crime playlist

[spark moon]

I have a weird thing that I can't listen to music while I'm in pvp because it's distracting. I can't think for some reason.

[smoky gale]

my biggest pet peeve in pvp is probably just like
on a fantastic streak, feel a we ran coming
then boom
some random fucking panic super/golden gun

[spark moon]

Based.

[potent meteor]

Yes this is my main playlist

[spark moon]

Fucking hate that.

[smoky gale]

i hate goldie so much
it's so hard to fight in any capacity and it can even be hard to run from lmfao

[proven minnow]

Ye, its an extra 5% movement speed iirc.

It also stacks with tempered metal Back when it boosted movespeed. You could get 40% extra speed on a successful ability kill.

[spark moon]

I think that six shot lasts too long

[smoky gale]

that too
deceptively long for what it can do

[spark moon]

Frankly I think that roaming supers last too long.

You shouldn't be able to die, respawn and die to the same super

[proven minnow]

Same. I use a playlist of assorted metal, rock, orchestral, and the odd big band jazz song (8 bit orchestra slaps btw)

[smoky gale]

to be fair, that is mostly to the fault of the spawning system
but i get what you mean

[potent meteor]

I listen to whatever grabs my attention at the time

[spark moon]

Yeah but on some maps it's absurdly unfair. Obviously they need to do some sort of spawn protection when a super is roaming.

[proven minnow]

I kinda wish you were invincible when spawning in so you can't be kill farmed

[potent meteor]

Currently that is a mix of Tekken soundtracks, Ken Ashcorp, doom music, hardstyle, hardbass, and god knows what else

[smoky gale]

me preparjng to sue spotify(the bloodborne dlc ost isn't there even tho the base game is)
i wanna listen to Ludwig the Holy Blade while wiping down glass tables dammit

[spark moon]

Being in a survival game and having a super pop, kill you, respawn and get killed again is just bad gameplay.

You lose two lives and there nothing you can do except deal with it because their super lasts for 30 minutes

[smoky gale]

fucking fight me
best boss theme to exist in any game ever dammit

thematically perfect in every way
fromsoft never misses with their tracks

[spark moon]

Original Halo trilogy including Reach and ODST.

There is no bad track.

Just banger after banger after banger

Halo 2, imo reigns supreme

[smoky gale]

yeah but just
damn man
halo tracks or anything of the sort, or really just MOST MUSIC
fails to capture the same feeling shit from bloodborne does
ludwig's theme starts out sad and decrepit but turns into this fucking glorious orchestral waltz and just
fuck yeah

[proven minnow]

I often listen to the Call of Duty Zombies OST. I bought the black ops OST back when Moon released, man having 115 always a finger tap away feels nice

[spark moon]

I find it just beautiful that Halo's theme is 7 notes that make up the main beat.

And for Halo 2, the absolute Legend that is Steve Vai, one for the greatest guitarists of all time (and the guitarist for white snake) literally vibed the rock theme into existence on a Tuesday afternoon in 2 hours is fucking breathtaking

[smoky gale]

i want bloodborne remastered
i need it

[proven minnow]

I want it on PC :(

Pls fromsoft

[smoky gale]

Poor soul

It's the best fromsoft game imo

The combat is near perfect in execution, the story is great and god damn the tone and mood
thematic perfection

[spark moon]

And to think.. Microsoft executives laughed at Marty O'Donnell's Halo theme because it was "too simple" and is now one of the single most recognizable themes of all time

[smoky gale]

There is no hiding behind a shield in bborne, there is no cheap method of winning
Get your trick weapon out and get hunting, make your own fucking openings and be pure consolidated aggression

Playing ds3 after bborne feels weird because the bosses are just so easy to me so far
Because actually playing aggressively does wonders as compared to the usual flow souls games havr

have

[proven minnow]

Reminds me of when Bohemiam Rapsody came out, litterally everyone told Freddie Mercury it'd fail because it didn't have a repeating pattern and went in new directions after every section. Now it's praised for that very thing.

[spark moon]

Oh man that's the crazy shit about Halo's theme. It's all just 'vibed in'

Fucking Marty O'Donnell literally came up with it on the way to work in his car

[proven minnow]

Sometimes us musicians do our best work there. Something about being un able to pick up and instrument or write stuff down forces you to think about it really hard.

[potent meteor]

It is goooooooooood I’ll give it that

But I’m ngl in terms of pure hype the Heihachi vs Akuma fight in Tekken 7 hits harder for me

[smoky gale]

it's better when you have the context, as well as experience the transition
paired with one of the most brutal fights in the series

[potent meteor]

probably because I heard it so much due to dying a lot

[proven minnow]

Bottom line, there's a lot of really good OSTs out there

[potent meteor]

^

You’ve just gotta know where to look

[smoky geode]

A lot of games recently have been making banger music

Even AC Valhalla, which a lot of people didn’t like, put out a good album
