Literally more damage, 3 times the range and only at the cost like of 1 less magazine
With these changes the gap has been closed somewhat
You're still better off using rifle for mid range combat, while pistol is the superior close range option
Can I assassinate a giant striker with a melee weapon with the syringe?
Hammer in the back.
if you do id only go for occi
you do take infect as a trade off tho
Yes. It's x4 damage for 8 seconds. Don't even need to aim for the head.
nowadays i get bullied by giants desyncing smacking me from 20 ft away
Yuh
Spear should though. That's the entire point.
Does it still do the triple punch combo?
I think its 3* but yeah
doesn't the knife also work on giants with IIX?
Nope
Probably not
Not one shot
pretty sure it does
But with stealth bonus damage... Hmmmmm
my personal favorite is when a giant decides its gonna do a lick animation then just changes its mind and melees you anyways
not 2 shot as well
try it
Triple Punch Giants can do a whole team wipe if unlucky
Someone pull out a calculator
I fear no man but giant chargers are fucking terrifying
But is it enough to offset the 21 hits you need without the syringes???
God no.... they naturally punch 3 times
do I have to jump?
5.5 * 2 * 1.5 * 2 * 3 = 99
I believe thats everything
If you wanna make sure
how much is giant HP?
knife base * sleep multi * head multi * back damage * syringe multi
120
Rip
ive had full team wipes happen from giant chargers even with good health condition just because they are walking nerfs to my sanity
Exactly 99 damage
Don't knife also got bonus precision damage multi?
Big oof
like 1.3?
knife aint a giant killer
Pretty sure I seen a clip of it happening, did they nerf the knife or buff the giant?
Ye
tf you all debating the ability of it to kill a giant
wait true?
neither
charged precision multi 1.5
My guy
kill strikers and shooters with it like its intended
oh wait
you talking like you know the game inside out
Giants got negliant head dmg multi iirc
meanwhile you dont even know where your standing half the time!
Yea cif someone is stacking mêlee boosters to meme + syringes etc etc
it is not happening
What if I have the bots on standby to shank it?
They will help, yeah
wait for them to get close to the giant
theres still a chance one of them will shoot
But still... Daggering giants is a meme.
Most likely to get killed but a brave attempt
Bat is a better alternative thanks to stagger yes?
Send the Sleepers to jail
Tru
5.5 base damage, 3x occi, 3x syringe damage, precision 1.5x, sleeping 2x. am i doing something wrong cus that comes out to 148 for a occi hit on a giant with knife using the syringe
But my bonk stick
bat is for bigs
Bats really good stagger weapon also stunlock the sleepers
i find more consistent stagger for big variants of shooters
lemme just syringe every time I want to solo a giant real quick
IF the game is even generous to give a syringe of the gods
yeah I missed the knife prec multi before so 99 *1.5 gives you that
Jesse, we need to cook meth
i mean its just a thought but am i fucking up somewhere or is one of my numers
it seems right to me
materials needed to make syringe: Sleeper blood
okay yeah so it does one shot with perfect conditions
but its so unreliable to get those conditions that it basically doesnt matter
@glacial shardatleast your not crazy
gtfo chat became math chat?
let me bring up the clip of the guy meleeing a giant with a knife
who the fuck
Always was
melees a giant with a knife
at this point im just tryna distract myself from my coding work
Probably
1 apparently with perfect conditions
this unless i missed a number somewhere
or added one that shouldnt be there
…
r7c3
very easy to test on that level
how far in?
r7c3 spawns syringes first room
and giants are fucking everywhere
tell me your results
i can stream on discord if you want
absolutely not
Kay
im suffering brainrot rn
dont
last thing i need is more stimulation
that delay hit explains a lot
had no clue that was a thing
hmm?
and i use knife all the time
altho that mf is cracked out there mind if they think using a knife on chargers is viable
yeah thats a crucial part
god thats not gonna be fun
cause if i jump into it its fucked
if i jump at it its fucked
if i sprint at it its fucked
okay
this is gonna be tricky for sure
i guess if i make it tilt its head back
by shining a light on it
then jump up
i might be able to hit it... unless funky hitboxes
wont kill a hybrid right?
hybrids have a bigger occi multi
"Using an IIx syringe allows you to kill any giant enemy with one fully charged hit to the back of the head with any melee, except for the Kovac Peacekeeper Bat (or the Mastaba Fixed Blade Knife if they are awake). Player health will appear yellow for the duration of the syringe's effects."
so by this theory, it can do it if it hits the back of the head while asleep
Hybrid should be fine, its got more hp but its a bigger headshot multi
hitting back of head on a hybrid with a knife would be way harder imo
yeah
i feel like it be easier
don't giants bow their heads while asleep?
yeah there head is kinda crouched into there body a bit
pretty sure it counts as asleep
if you cfoam it then leave it without hitting it
it wont wake up after it unfoams
uhh that would still be hard to hit
id still just run hammer
pulsing means still asleep?
can I stand up while he pulses?
I am thinking pop syringe and uncrouch to reach the back of the head
just creep right up behind him and stand up, wait for him to chill
then jump and stab
or walk up and jump when he is chilling
don't they put their head back when they glow?
9 hours of work finally done aight boys im out im going to fucking pass out
gamer
the funny thing is
i foamed it
run to get the syringe
i got to the guy, used the syringe and he just unfoamed
throbbing
but i got it
he quieted down before the syringe run out
also it only takes like 7 hits to a hybrids head to knife it
ill try to count it now
a sleeping one ofc
its exactly 10 hits to the head
damn its not really hard to melee awoken hybrids with a knife
as long as you wanna sacrifice 60 health
its not that hard
@hollow quarry for r8 who will be working on it? The entirety of the gtfo team or a handful of devs?
can we have an f level or 2 e levels thx
I'm thinking more about mag size/dmg
Smg also has 50 round mag / 1.98 dmg which makes them similar now
Outside of range for the most part
Pretty much, but it stays for longer and you don't care for ADS
Just a fuck off gun your spray in general direction of the offenders
Negligible imo. Both guns can just be hipfired in general direction of enemies
Also I think it fires faster
It does
did they make the burst cannon suck less
I'd have to fuck around with that
22 dmg
Yes, albeit not by much.
Recoil still there.
Allegedly you can counter it with crouching.
will it at least kill stuff if you full dive your mouse down on high sensitivity
Basically the same as previous burst cannon. Idk what breakpoint it hits with 22
Unless 4 body 1 head on a giant to the front
112 dmg total
Doesn't matter
Just allows mains to waste less ammo to finish the guy
Exactly
It went from not killing a striker in one bullet to killing a striker in one bullet, literally the biggest breakpoint in the game
Nothing, just saves ammo.
Technically it can one burst hybrid/giant shooter now
Clients do get advantage but not was initially thought
I thought about calculating it. But probably
looks bigger on the stat sheet
That damage per clip stats going willllddddd
They literally just kinda brought It back... Only recoil is still there.
Eh.
And ammo nerf
will it at least function for tank killing now
It's very high maintenance. I think sniper is still better.
it felt worse for it then every single shotgun
hybrids/chickens die in 4 hs + 1 bs now
scout can be backshot
c scout die in 3 front bullets again
slightly more cracked vs bosses
its not rn lol
burst cannon is easily S+ tier
and sniper kinda sucks for tank killing unless your cheesing it, it takes forever
Sniper is better off for giants. But it's kinda just a bonus for tanks if they're also in the level
I unironically find the machinegun faster for killing them
I assume coming from assumption that the user manages to reliably get 5 kills per burst? Or like 4 at least?
I wouldn't take Sniper exclusively for tanks
2
Currently I wouldn't take sniper.
full stop
why?
scattergun
that is probably the one good spot for it
I've found precision rifle kinda fun for that level
And it takes forever without it
cause there are other weapons that work better
if you're using scattergun to do what you want to do with sniper, scattergun just does it worse
because I had to do that with a team of 4 machinegunners and it took forever
i used pr for it on my previous runs

Its not great for the || kraken || but does a lot on the rest of the level
Kraken melee only
I still dont like the PR
yeah its decent in fog skip, but i was hoping it would be better for ||kraken, it takes like 3/4 of its ammo pool to destroy a tumor||
and sniper takes like 3 mags… which i guess is also 3/4 of its ammo pool
i might just take HAR or arbalest instead
or even scatergun
and hope my team can deal with it
So:
It's a sniper rifle that trades ability to reliably delete bigs in one precise click...
...for ability to sometimes delete a couple smalls as well if situation calls for it?
dont the damage falloff makes it take forever
anything bar sniper/prec rifle is kinda meh/bad for kraken
Is that a fair assessment?
it also absolutely fucks bosses
well i plan to have the rest of my team do it
it does more than 50% more dmg per shot on a boss
and does 33% more shots per magazine
:>
oh the auto turret starts with 500 again
also doesnt HAR have a falloff start at like 20 meters which in most cases should be enough?
really? The tumors are that far away? Guess im just bad at assessing distance
i thought all other than the couple ones super high up
12
would be close enough to deal any damage
huh then yeah not enough i guess
having killed kraken with har + hel gun before, would not recommend
I was feeling falloff with prec rifle because I wasn't even trying to stay close to it 😅
no
didn't realise that actually had pretty notable falloff compared to sniper
even sniper gets falloff in kraken fight btw
so dont recommend it
with small range guns
Nerf BC again?
i tried to get as close as i could most of the time, but it still took forever
wtf
yes
RIP.
sniper has like 60 meters before dropoff doesnt it?
I think its 50-100
60
I guess devs are committed to the whole "nerf cracked gun with usability nerfs" thing
the burst cannon nerf...
60 yea
!wiki Damage Falloff
I gotchu
No they will as long as it’s picked up beforehand
Ah yes the baby from R2E1.
Which is why they are dogsh*t for any mission where you have to carry 2+ objectives at once while under error alarm.
R3A1
Alarm on is everything on the ground
Unfortunately Neonate doesn’t work
yeah but you go grab it in R2E1
oh
warden doesn't have those just lying around
R7A1 begs to differ
so why do we resurrect a baby?
Yeah Icwas just thinking bout that
Lore. It's a clone.
to make a Unit
Artifical humanoid, to be precise.
you'll do other stuff to it
Home grown soldiers, no socialisation needed.
It’s schaeffers kid
That’s why R7D1 is so buggy
Because schaeffer put a trojan in him and he infected the whole level
Nah an explanation could be warden has acces to R2E1 zone now that we got there
how will Hatchet share the clear screen shot to his friends now 😦 😭
no no, he is alive
i like my explanation more
the latest and greatest "this level is buggy for lore reasons"
OR R5E1 has a couple neonates
oh phew 😌
thought bout that?
Yeah I did
🧐
Make it official in Occlusion
honestly my best bet is DX
Still got to find time to finish D1 and D2 tho.
E2 got something else coming :3
You have not even released E1 m8!
D1 and D2 tho. they fun.
Some have moved on to the next project while others go a bit back and fourth
Got weird bug where my screen become purple after killing sleeper..
So Calle. Cosmetically changing guns designs but they still function the same. Would be allowed I imagine
Void bug from the liquid splatter on visor effects
It should dissipate after some time.
Well.. theres to many sleepers in the expedition... the purple become more spread everytime i killl them🤣
What I would do to have bots prioritize Fog Repellers higher than lock melters.
Probably install some mods or even create one yourself.
Ideally though - you should just find people instead.
slendi
they made many boxes inaceesible
missions like R1B1 and R1C2 can be unbeatable
So its going to be the small band and some other will step now and then i imagine for this and that
didn't find one syringe in R3A1
but did have plenty ammo
turned last alarm door into D day for sleepers
1 burst turret chewed them on a long hallway
syringes in R3A1 are on shelves i think and not in lockers
2 more burst turrets
you brought 3 sentries
yeah
checks out
did I deal well with a room with 4 giants?
set up a turret to face 2 of them and shot the other 2
room had also a scout but managed to kill it first
you did good
nothing of importance other than artifacts
but if I went loud later they could have bitten me in the ass later
with small strikers in tow
again: you can go loud whenever you want.
if you have ammo there is nothing stopping you from going loud
Chances are you'll finish R3 before R2
my favorite reasoning
if i have at least 30% in my main and 50% in my special
i can go rambo on they asses
currently at the gym, will play more when I get home
R3 will be easier as a whole than the last 2 R2 missions. the choice will be yours
isn't R2D2 a reactor loud only defense mission?
It's a reactor yes
R2E1 is harder tho
There are zones in r2d2 you are meant to stealth but the reactor waves are loud yeah
probably did the wrong order of cells btw then
fast stealth
which he kinda despises
Yep it takes a while to figure out
He did not like black dragon running into rooms hammering everything and waking things up
3 doors... different elevations....
🥴
I know well on R2D2 he will adapt or ragequit
Took us a minute to figure out that some doors were easier with partial fog
Ah and a free cell to see what the fog does
Otherwise we just didn’t give a shit and did them in reverse because fuck that
Fog isn’t that bad anyways
I mean yeah that way. you kinda make it worse for yourself
Even I was ready to give up on that level. Average lfg are just not ready for it.
Oh well
Dunno first tried it with 2 full blind and me only having done OG once
Got it on 3rd attempt me thinks. Couple of close calls, was sniping the horde with PR from a vantage point like my life was depending on it.
I hate when the game actually forces me to focus...
then again had to redo 6 tries to get a friend and another new player through it. so I guess team depends
honestly teaching people the game is fun
sometimes i go to lfg-beginners just to do that
no, no it's not
okay it's fun if they LISTEN to you
Oh go back to sleep you old grumpy italian
latvian!!
I meant latvian
sorry
honestly as long as they don't insist on going knife it's fun
when new players go knife it's hell
it usually ends up with 1 guy giving a shit and the other 2 that are like "I just wanna bangbang monsters, duuuuude"
i let them bangbang and suffer the consequences
or 1 of them teaching wrong shit
how bad can it be
Because ThEy DiD ThE MaP BeFoRe
wrong shit = death
had that on fucking r6d3 and wanted to shoot myself
he fucked up the room because of desync (I'm inclined to believe him)
and he went fully "I'm okay with helping people buuuuut"
It's just fucking annoying
😆
i usually just teach on new levels lmao, make sure people know how to silent clear, do agressive stealth, and setup for alarms
R7e1
occasionally i'll take lead and have the students try to keep up with me
Learn by doing
im just mad i failed my first run at the last objective
get used to it my friend
faliure is the way we learn
yep stay far far away from scouts
what map, I'm curious?
no, actually
what level was it?
most times you want to stealth kill scouts
r1a1 i tried to solo with bots
first time player i assume
scouts are hard to deal with for new players so i get that 100%
yeah new player only thing i knew at first was crouch almost everywhere, dont move when anything lights up
yep scouts throw a curveball to that lmao
Actually go at them. learn to bonk em with your hammer. this will be a NEEDED skill later
don't touch the spaghetti fuckers
invest now
invest in agressive scout murder
fuckem
learn to run at the fuckers through the tendrils
in the time it takes them to pull in, you CAN murder them
absolutely
they're only scary if you don't have a backup plan tbh
It is needed. don't be THAT guy who can't kill the scout
alright ill give it a try next time
for this reason, never go bat or knife
as, against scouts, you are, mostly, fucked.
you can pry the bat from my cold dead hands
especially if you're a new player
Yes, same, but it fucked me earlygame
Try till you succeed on a regular base. you will be sooo happy later on
if you're doing another run of R1A1, give me a ping in lfg-beginners
i can sit around and be backup to make sure you don't wipe
yo is carbine + Hel gun a good loadout for a beginner
Hel gun needs a bit better aiming skill but otherwise yeah it’s solid
Carbine is meta. hel gun you'll need to learn but it's very good
I kinda want an all-rounder weapon + large killer
i put a chat link in the lfg channel
yeah they feel good, just skill issue on my part for not lining up shots
Carbine/choke
Large killer would be shotguns, high caliber pistol, sniper, hel rifle.
Hel gun is more of a wave clearer
hm, my second friend runs a sniper so maybe I should stick with the wave clear loadout
ah i'm in class for a bit
if you're still doing runs in a couple hours i'll pop in
Didn't even know there was an order
All we knew was that when we put the cells in at the end our visibility disappeared
Every cell lowers fog
And the doors are on different elevation. follow that puzzle and you golden
Rounded - yeah, carbine is king.
Large killers: shotguns, sniper rifle, recently buffed Burst Cannon.
High cal, to an extent... Takes 4 bullets for melee and 5 for ranged ones.
Fire rate on a slow side, so not optimal.
Dammit
Now I feel like we only messed up because we tried to speed-run the main objective
For next time you see a cell gen cluster objective. It almost always lowers OR rises the fog on each cell. This is your little puzzle
Why say shotguns are good and not high cal
And sometimes doing main only or PE requires different cell placement strats
But R3A2 only has main so you gucci
High cal doing the exact same dmg as shotgun/choke mod 
that's crazy
If anything high cals better cuz limb breaks are easy and more ammo
Most of them shoot faster and don't kick as much, so less risk of missing.
Only exception is pump. That thing gets points for tube size.
Cshotty is same dps, pump is less, sawed off cant 1 mag, hel shotty is less
last cell starts ||error|| so wait until you're all there
Mains excluded - man already picked carbine for all rounding.
Ik
HEL shotgun 
Hmmm it had a side objective I think.
We couldn't do it because there was a constant alarm on top of the fog
Nope only appear from R4 onwards
So either you did not do R3A2 OR it had only main
If you say multiple objectives it could be R4B2
Pffff don't remember those kind of stuff. I alt tab in drop
they both do ! 😂
Yeaaaaaaa
Good general purpose weapon if you can't settle on anything
Yeaaaaaaaa
HEL shotgun sitting in the corner with rock music slowly getting louder
Tried out the Hel rifle too
Practically an elephant gun with how good it is at taking out Giants
Chill the be a troll they have been baiting with this for a while
I saw
Very funny tho
I tried the hel shotgun
I really tried to like it but it's wide firing cone seems to hamper my playstyle a little
If it had a more narrow cone it might be better
Yeaaaaaaa
Yeah you need to be very aggressive with the HEL shotgun to get the most out of it
I mean that one's actually true
It's very versatile though once you get into it
Like a combat shotgun that requires more aggression but rewards more basically
The precision rifle is another all-purpose weapon too
Its thermal pairs very well with the bio tracker if you have it
YEAAAAA
„All purpose“
uuhm
Precision rifle is all-around garbage 
Ok but hear me out
Depends on you use the precision rifle
I've gotten some very nice performances out of it
Yeah it's fine, it just doesn't do anything you can't really get better out of another special weapon
It's got the thermal sight and that's basically the reason to pick it over other options
i think being able to kill 12 enemies in one magazine is pretty strong
It's pretty alright, revolver is honestly better as a small killer though
shadows, s-scouts
strikers/shooters are both top tier
tank killing is pretty good, so is mom killing
It's good for shadows
If you bring in PR for dad/mom you're actually crazy
no?
why?
i think you dont know the numbers vs mom/dad
Let them cook
pops 4 tank tumors and 6 mom tumors per mag (as host)
As a local PR slave I can confirm that it's pretty okay against bosses.
This is fun
yep
actually i forgot to ask/test
does client do max dmg even on their own tumors
otherwise it will not 1 cycle mom
as in, you shoot a tumor with PR twice
youd need to do 84,5 dmg twice
Yes
Think about it like this
Client only has 1 check, if damage per hit exceeds tumor max hp
Nothing else matters
We tested 1 mag in game alongside working in theory
Wish there was a training range so I could try out weapons without having to drop into an expedition
Just download cconsol
It is a mod that is pretty good for testing things
You can change guns in level spawn sleepers and such
Ooooo
I was funny, when I first told Tru about it and we went to test somethings in-game, it was the first thing we tried
It made him believe
damn 1 client shooting alone?
dats pretty cracked
Do you have it recorded
Nah
Noooo
Making fun of 10cc before class
so no gaming?
The usual
shame
It's probably only reliant on how fast you are trying to do it
Still trying to find a special to pair with the Hel Autopistol
Just a general purpose set up that I can use until I figure out a better setup for a specific rundown, if we die of course that is
hel pp isnt rly "general purpose"
its a maximum support power gun
you trade actual dmg vs stagger
theres some funny stuff you can do with it. Like burst cannon or scattergun, lining up smalls with the stagger then shooting them all down at once
but that trades kill potential on singular smalls for a niche funny way of killing
Would be neat to see how the tier lists will move alot of the guns up after this patch
I should make a new one when I get home
F tier should be extinct by now
Sawed off finally not F tier?
F tier is for auto pistol
Sawd off was good just clunky
I've seen 3 tier lists and all of em put sawed off at bottom
It's pretty ok
Would have been funny if it could one mag a giant
It can
Not from the front
It'd be a bit higher if hel shotty didn't exist I think
People actually use the hel shotgun?
Yes.
It’s amazing
It's a lovely little chunk of violence.
Huh
So good it got hit with fire rate nerf twice now
And it probably still doesn't matter
Once the first one didn’t take
I'm surprised that there isn't a flame thrower in this game
Whenever I use it, it feels like I'm breathing in the enemy direction somewhat violently but that's it. It can stagger sure but it needs way too many shots to kill anything.
2
Devs said there won't be any Area of effect type weapons
Closest we have is penetration
It has enough ammo where 2-3 shotting smalls is fine. Then you factor in the hel penetration and a wave becomes free food
What is the pen on it?
1?
Ye
One but it is all it needs
It isn’t a spammy gun
If you're close enough to see the pores in their skin maybe.
Damn
That sucks, flame throwers are narly
problem is people kinda see it like the smg, ah u point at enemy they die, no this gun is made to be throwned at waves u squish many many enemies at once and u dont even need to get super close to em
I don't use the Hel Shotgun by principle
The 1st time I tried it out, I got my 1st game breaking bug where the game looked super wonky, the sound was ''wobbly'', and the gun just didnt shoot half the time
It's cursed. Can't use it.
the spread helps hittin many enemies
It also destroys giants
Yeah that's why it good for staggering but less good for actually killing things.
I like the combat shotgun alot, with my Hel Revolver
So
Hel Shotgun + Special Revolver = Exact same loadout
no, two shots an enemy? point at wave?
it has 12 mag
yea people use a top 3 main gun 
u can kill a HUGE part of the wave
14 mag
Yeah, it's actually quite good
You rarely run out
it absolutely murders waves
Yeah reducing the firerate isn't much a nerf unless you're kissing a giant/hybrid to kill it
Is there a mod that changes the ammo count to have the max be divisible by mag size?
inb4 ''that's not QoL, that's a buff''
It'll take a LITTLE longer now
and u usually use ur special for those
or ur team
or ur hammer
or ur bat bat based
its decently noticeable as a nerf for people who played it a lot and well
its honestly a buff for beginners
they no longer blast into nothing by accident 
I haven't tried it yet
Yeah it feels a little worse using it this morning, but for newbies it'll help conserve ammo 
But I don't think it'll matter
What was the pre-pre-nerf shot delay?
but its not like "oh shit its WORSE"
Can't wait to test
check wiki chat for it
:)
no
just tell me
.21
Thx
Now it is .26
So
5 shots a second
To 4 shots a second
That's certainly a -nerf- but doesn't seem extremely substantial
25% nerf
Combats shot gun is at .25
It's pretty much cshotty now yea
So it is fine
I use the combat shotgun and I rarely shoot at max fire rate anyways.
it makes killing big waves a bit rougher, makes giant kills a tad slower
but it is a buff vs birthed babies as the rythm is better
Well ''rarely''
I do it at giants when I want em dead
wha
at giants, bosses. When dealing with a stacked wave
anyone got a tierlist with all guns?
i have one with all main/special/melee
Tierlists are like opinions, everybody has one.
i made one but it was based on the fun not the utility of the weapon
and some are wrong 🙃
Yeah but most of us agree on most guns
i always think thats the way to go
tierlists of just how good is this gun for me are silly
Exactly
since some are too situational for em
bat is based cant convince me otherwise
no you just dont wanna win
theres always some variance
Tbh
I don't get the spear buff
Sprinting while charged, yay
But it's so slow that it doesn't really do anything
but mostly for stuff that is mid tier anyway
might as well be transabled
I have both respect and a healthy dose of apprehension for bigtime bat fans.
Knife enthousiasts > bat users
Correct the main issue with spear
Is you have to spend some much stam to use it
I used the bat alot starting out until I met that 1 room filled with chargers and I went back to the Sledge
You can’t do other things which you need to do
Is there even an updated tier list maker yet
Quickly
Check to see if the SMG sprite is updated
I was so hyped when I saw you could run with spear now. Only to discover it's more like an enthused waddle that you have to really strain to notice,

arnt they the same cropped
Better than nothing
Tbh
I suppose yeah
Spear users are usually allergic to sprint anyway
What's the reasoning behind us not being able to sprint anyhow?
Does it take the same stam as sprinting with other melee weapons?
Probably, yeah
Sprinting is sprinting
Game balance
To bait noobs into using it 
The reasoning
They think it's too strong to be allowed to be mobile
Yeah for less distance
they dont want people to use it

Or they think extra reach is all you need
But
it has less breakpoints than sledge iirc
All it has over sledge is slightly faster charge and larger reach, right?
Everything else is basically the same/worse
Let me hop on my laptop ig
Yeah but adding sprint tbh
It deals 30% more headshot damage
Ig if you wanna squint, the Spear has a ''nicer'' hitbox
Does that let you kill a Giant in less than 4 hits?
Pls
hybrid/chicken, mom, tank (probably pmom lol)
Spear headshot mult never really matters
lets u do it in two i think
Just give it bat stam and it will be so useable
I don't know actually... But appears to be no.
but i could be wrong
both hammer and spear kill giants in 3 hits lol
I think theoretically if you were to only ever hit headshots, it's just a better maul. But yeah in practice it has a niche.
qwq is usable
Yeah I meant 3 mb
For instances where you want to use the spear for the hitbox multiplier [chickens, hybrids, moms] you get screwed over by the lack of speed anyhow
Spear would be a good option with bat stam values
it also staggers less per hit than the maul which gives you less of a safety net
honestly 3 spear users easily melee hold r6c2 error
So just
Bosses.
Which are quite rare, which you would most likely just shoot them instead of spearing
Well bosses are better to hit with hammer
Because of the Insane stagger
The main benefit of spear is it has different patterns and ranges it can play
I don't think I've ever once noticed a mom stagger, but then again I just kinda run behind it and rain hellfire into it's back in blind rage
She has 1000 health and 1000 stagger health
But hammer full charge does 500 stagger dmg
I.E she can only be staggered by melee?
all guns with stagger multi can
Or something with extra stagger muilt
Ridiculous levels of autopistol will do it as well 
I think ive seen a scattergun do it
But hammer stagger is highest single stagger hit in the game
just the second a mom stops moving its normally dead shortly after
Scatter gun
even 4 people mag dumping it with autos will do it fast
I think tank stealth might be possible again
Maybe
But stupid as fucj
I've seen 1 sleeping tank and I instantly 180'd out of the room
Fuck that
It is like charger giant
Tbh I think we can do it
''No thanks, I choose life''
You bait melee towards teammates
XD
spain people?
Average better bots user
what? I uninstall the mod
honestly, I admire it
hmm?
I mean I would rather have the game punch me for using bots to begin with than bother myself with the mamager
uninstalling the mod because you can't be bothered to use a mod launcher
I wanna use Better bot
but man
The fucking aimbot the bots get, able to kill off any enemy that wakes up on frame perfect timing with 1 shot to the dome.. it's a bit much.
Wish there was a version without the combat+ increase
there was literally talk earlier
that version 0.3.0 of the mod was alright and it's only from 0.4.0 onwards where stuff got ridiculous
o
had a Better Bot tier bot get to literally 20% HP on a A1 mission
Does 0.3.0 include the ''drop item when enemy near'' ?
That's like, the sole reason I bothered with the mod
What did my homie do to lose 80 hp?
Played GTFO 
I shot him with a sniper, sorry
Got punched by giant twice.
oh yeah we had an alarm with 2-4 giants in it
probably couldn't mag dump fast enough
I keep forgetting how much damage giants' bites do.
I personally like to use Assault Rifle/H Assault Rifle

should I give them to the bots?
Easy solution is play without bots
Vanilla Bots
How big is the reload buff on the bullpup btw?
I would like HAR more. But learning it has Bloom has deterred me from using it
Köning PR 11 don't care about giant health
did they move HAR to special?
Veruta or Arbalist?
Yes
Every weapon has bloom?
2.4 > 2.1 so about 10-15% quicker
Technically to a degree which idk the specifics on that.
Huh, not bad.
But HAR's bloom when full auto is noticeable
Still won't use it, but it's a decent buff.
Veruta for crowd control, arbalist for damage
so uh, 2 Verutas and Bishop gets Arbalist?
Veruta can damage too lol
Veruta is 4 and arbalist is 5
Veruta has a higher dps than arbalist
Bots shoot all guns the same way
veruta also fires way faster
So fire rate doesn't matter
no?
On paper sure, but managing that in practice is a different story.
Just hip fire it if you want easy
Efficient use though will require ads
you can feel it a lot more when there's 6 strikers within 10 metres of you
arbalest fire rate starts to feel very inadequate
Can't use it like before when it had faster fire rate. It struggles killing things up close as fast
With 0 recoil it's a medium range suppression fire gun.
I love arbalist but the slower RoF killed it for me in terms of close range engagements
When it got reworked
Should I give bots Assault Rifles and 2 Verutas + 1 Arbalist?
Can we get that guy from a few days ago to come back and tell everyone with no context they suck with autos
Burst rifle/ carbine tbh
Yeah, that should be optimal.
Better give them Burst rifle though.
Why Carbine?
Bots do really well with burst fire weapons
They can burst cancel.
Bots can burst cancel
Carbine for CQC, burst rifle for mid range whiffing
Burst cannon for funny
So Burst Rifle vs Carbine what's the difference?
Range
Burst rifle has range. Carbine dps
I actually have one bot on shotgun
But I haven't seen bots with carbine so ye
Yet****
Like once every 10 missions
Do they actually use it properly or do they just gesture threateningly at distant enemies and waste ammo?
so 2 Burst Rifles and 2 Verutas but Bishop gets 1 Carbine and 1 Arbalist?
But he also just pounds big guys with it
I usually run 2 verutas, 2 burst rifles, 1 hel revo, 1 shotgun. Just try it out and see what works
or give it to Hatchet? I mean Carbine
Honestly experimenting will show you what works for you
is this game even working? Last 15 times ive logged on i cant find group lol
I just give them all burst and arbalist
why?
Matchmaking doesn't work, you have to find a group here.
duh wtf and ive got like 3 runs unlocked, who tf wanna play /w me
Matchmaking does work, it’s just not active
lol
