I was trying to figure out a way to go down a path being camped by three cultists and there was just no possible way I could've avoided dying from it

#

Another annoying thing- the oblivion cultists will hold their potions if you hide behind cover and wait to throw them once you are within line of sight again, which makes them throw it before their double combo so they just throw three at once again :)

#

They feel like the old specter of ignorance but on drugs

wanton galleon
#

Yeah the potion evokers are definitely something

#

They just kinda wander and clump up at the very edge of rooms while sniping you at max range with 60 damage of potions

#

On top of the weird potion-holding part where they can sometimes triple throw as well

#

Perhaps if they were just regular witches or evokers they may work better like in other pieces of content

#

But this combo of evoker retreating/wandering AI and the highly-accurate potion throw spell as a main attack makes for a very difficult mob

arctic viper
#

Occultist gives me flashback of old specter evoker walking away and shooting endlessly

#

glad the root in yellow pot mobs are gone, learning from previous mistakes! (@Mechanical Spider)

Evoker ai....
God what an infuriating enemy lol

#

I think I'm going to start advocating for either this or heavy nerfs to all evoker alchemists because even oneshot creeper deaths are more fair than this

short ferry
#

is it possible to make their pots blockable by shield?

gaunt pasture
#

I'll likely look into making them essentially the same as witches

#

Speaking of willows can the double ghasts just be removed ty

Evoker alchemist now it’s at same level of hate as sniper for me rn

#

Is it ignore iframe

#

<— FULL OF HATRED

royal phoenix
#

it’s wild

dusk wren
#

I mean iframe is 0.5 seconds

#

But I feel getting more splashed under 0.5

#

It’s thonk thonk thonk

royal phoenix
#

i’ve also just been splashed like that

#

sub second death from full health

dusk wren
#

I can see my health BOOP and gone

royal phoenix
dusk wren
#

And I think choose legionary in ex yellow is funny that sniper attack can never be blocked lul

#

There is 2 of them stack each other

royal phoenix
#

me when I find one who isn’t with 3 others bombarding me with poop

dusk wren
#

Gonna use old school blocks

#

I doing pressure test of 25pt solo and the delve scaling is VERY noticeable compare to my previous 5pt run

royal phoenix
#

indeed

#

i did 18pt and they weren’t that much of an issue

#

but it starts to show with large amounts of legionary and other mods

#

just how annoying these fucks can be

dusk wren
#

I can’t really think how to play with melee without being a sweat and good ping

royal phoenix
#

stealth “””works”””

dusk wren
#

And I think how the 4 stack elite work

#

And emblem failed

#

Nvm it works

#

Fast stage is laser charge attack

#

And there is aoe water /blue blocks attack

#

And earth quake

#

Idk is there 4th

#

My death is around 15 rn that just finished p1

wanton galleon
#

There’s a 4th stage yeah

#

Jungle -> laser
Flame -> fire nova thing
Water -> shatter
Earth -> earthshake

dusk wren
#

Ah yes lag nova

dusk wren
#

👍 Void part nerf is at well balance rn

#

not that punishable anymore but just need to be caution to ghast/range mobs

clear temple
#

void part balance when the invincible vengeful chiv bee knocks me off

#

wish i mention this sooner but why does occultist have -healing% !

image.png
#

if they didnt do crazy dmg it'd be acceptable

#

realized this is the 2nd mob thats tacked with -%healing while also being hard to avoid GRAAH!!!

gaunt pasture
#

All the -Healing will probably disappear

#

remnants of mscr mob design

arctic viper
#

need them to be gutted

#

Is it that sniper aiming particles can go though blocks

#

The issue I having is that it aim though blocks + long distance

#

Unlike some boss laser abilities that it’s a smaller area and being noticeable

#

The most close mob I can think of rn is the ghast from teal

#

They don’t have same issue of sniper is that . They are big , and usually at open area that isn’t too many obstacle to see the aiming indicator

#

Would the treepers be better if they didn't explode the terrain

#

Feels mildly odd that they both create and destroy, leaving trees in mid air

dusk wren
#

Me that my grave stuck inside and don’t have an axe and another treeper lul

patent night
#

I played willows again this week and still have no idea what the fuck is going on other than the witches are actually pretty cringe

#

Which is at least something new, I literally had no idea what was going on week 1 and this time I could kind of pay attention (4 person clear doesn't help this)

dusk wren
#

I kind wish the range immune of 🗿 isn’t that restricted

#

It’s like 4 blocks ?

#

The low infuse of treeper feels bad for me being high ping

#

At the moment I saw them spawned I start shield but it’s not fast enough

wanton galleon
dusk wren
#

Wrong wording

#

I was meaning if can add that

silk spade
#

Yeah they aim at you through blocks, but it is blocked by them. The issue is that they only have a sound cue they’re aiming at you when they fire lol

dusk wren
#

WHERE IS THEY AIMING FROM is what I’m scared lol

silk spade
#

So you can be aimed at through a wall without knowing, pop out of cover and immediately be chunked for 75% of your health because you didn’t f5 around the corner first

dusk wren
#

Yeb

wanton galleon
#

There is a bit of a technical reason why the laser targeting is so janky, cause it is set to only target players with line of sight

#

The line of sight targeting is extremely generous compared to the laser hitbox line of sight; basically it can start targeting you through tiny gaps in blocks or just off the top off your head even if the laser will get blocked by blocks

silk spade
#

I have been completely inside a building using f5 to look around the wall and they will continuously try to shoot at me without having seen me

dusk wren
#

They ignore sigh of line iirc..?

wanton galleon
#

Even if a tiny part of your hitbox is showing it'll be able to target you

#

Not specific to marksman btw it's just how line of sight targeting works

#

Which is usually not too huge of an issue for most mob abilities

#

But the limitations become especialy noticeable on lasers because there's such a huge delay from when it starts targeting you to when it actually hits you

dusk wren
#

2 layer of wood solid blocks thonk

#

Did I misunderstand or not that sniper follow rule of sight of line or not…?

#

What you said let me understand as it should follow

wanton galleon
#

They do, it's just that line of sight targeting means it targets you even if a tiny sliver of your hitbox is showing

dusk wren
#

I can do bug report then suffer

#

Got video

wanton galleon
#

Send it

dusk wren
#

Not at home 😭

wanton galleon

#

Hmm

#

Also the bug has been addressed, hoping I can post the clip after the update hits

#

But this is quite funny

#

the 🗿 's shatter have kinda weird hitbox, my friend got hit mutilpe time due to it leave ground, and the block replace doesn't happen/unnoticeable, but damage still apply

silk spade
#

And boring, and uninteresting for some other words

#

I would far far more appreciate having the tree spam, than the current "F to pay respects" tree on your grave

dusk wren

#

Ex willow chall feels incredibly low key and fair aside from the potion throwers whom I've gained quite a respect for

arctic viper
#

if treepers didnt get any explosion power but shrapnels instead (like exyellow) that would Be so awesome. It would be so cool.

silk spade
#

Would love if their explosion power was converted into damaging "roots" around the tree (centre of explosion)

#

Ngl the yellow landmines are kinda de-clawed for me

#

But if those shrapnel strands lingered it could be a great cc area denial

dusk wren
#

thonk like certain amount of poise cloud or sth

humble bison
#

can we not do shrapnel? I hate everything breakingh shields in endgame content, so I was pleasantly surprised by how little of the attacks were doing so in ex willos

wanton galleon
#

Don't worry we're making more things break shields in ex willows

dusk wren
#

Yes more things let shield on cooldown

#

It’s block game not shield game withering

humble bison
#

I guess this is just saying that I should stop using shield on hotbar in monumenta, thus a whole class of items are useless
I don't mind it if I know that's the intended direction

dusk wren
#

Not really I use shield for stats and I’m ok with my decision to let it on cooldown

#

The defensive stats of my shield is better than tnorth is what I love

humble bison
#

you use mainhand shields for stats? what else is on it??

#

the hotbar

dusk wren
#

Fs shield

#

Reflex 1 and magic protection 1

#

Lg epic Is debuff in r3 so it’s my bis magic prot mainhand

#

Also 15% speed just nice
