technically you can still do it with artifacts, items or sentry

#

but it’s useless rlly

ocean spindle
#

yeah but it's so complicated it's not rlly worth

chilly ivy
#

Ah okay okay

#

Thanks guys, you were really helpful

ocean spindle
#

it's no problemoss

chilly ivy
#

What's the best resource when it comes to guides and stuff? is it the wiki?

silent delta
#

wiki or this server honestly

#

the guides channel is quite handy

chilly ivy
#

Okay, perfect! Thanks guys

#

what up gamers i need some advice on how to beat the class IV alarm solo in R2A1, im currently going smg, shotgun, and burst sentry

silent delta
#

hmm, could also probably bring a better main

carmine crescent
#

theres not many good places to kite

ocean spindle
#

probs the same way u would beat r1a1, with foam by holding down the spawn door and maybe foaming up the entrance to the other

carmine crescent
#

and im bad

ocean spindle
#

why are u trying to solo r2a1

carmine crescent
#

just wanna

ocean spindle
#

did u do r1a1 and b1 already

silent delta
#

based

tardy ingot
carmine crescent
ocean spindle
#

ok that's fair then

carmine crescent
#

and r6a1, r7a1, and r8a1

ocean spindle
#

ok actually way more fair

tardy ingot
#

This is the „get better bots mod“ of „how to beat c with bots“ recommendations for solo

silent delta
#

i was half joking

carmine crescent
#

theres two places they can come in

#

so i cant really c foam

silent delta
#

like im sure if one was good at kiting it would be easier but its not the only method

silent delta
tardy ingot
#

yoz can get a better main weapon

Everything else is learning to shoot better

silent delta
#

also why smg?

tardy ingot
#

Or run mines, its probably more stable honestly

carmine crescent
#

ik hel rev is prob better

#

but im bad

ocean spindle
#

for stagger u can bring a hel autopistol and it'll stagger and damage better tbh

#

with the pen

silent delta
carmine crescent
silent delta
#

but yeah hel revo sawed off or hel shotty might serve you better

#

or dmr, if you can hit headshots

ocean spindle
#

hel autopistol is not midrange

#

it's short range

silent delta
#

close to mid

ocean spindle
#

but r2a1 is so short range anyway

#

no it's like 5 meters

silent delta
#

it can still stagger at midrange

carmine crescent
ocean spindle
#

mid range is like 7

silent delta
#

just doenst kill as well

carmine crescent
#

too enclosed for dmr

#

already tried that

#

and failed

silent delta
#

just a thought

#

in that case yeah, auto pp, carbine, or one of the shotguns

carmine crescent
#

what is the auto pp

tardy ingot
#

Hel auto can stagger at fuckin 20 meters

silent delta
#

autopistol

silent delta
tardy ingot
#

well basically

#

not with 1 bullet anymore

#

But who tap shoots that shit

carmine crescent
#

what is the best shotgun?

silent delta
#

you have so much ammo and a free reload

silent delta
carmine crescent
silent delta
#

slug shotty kinda sucks

silent delta
carmine crescent
#

ill give it a shot

carmine crescent
tardy ingot
#

Id just recommend carbine…

#

Easy

#

Fast

silent delta
tardy ingot
#

strong

#

doesnt require good aim

#

Has good range still

silent delta
#

carbine is quite good as well yes

#

honestly kind of boxes out all the smg and ar sidegrades lmao

#

it does what they do better

ocean spindle
#

slug shottie kicks ass for me but only in two levels of the game and they are both B2s

silent delta
#

isnt it good against like flyers and thats it

ocean spindle
#

yeah pretty much

#

r8b2 and r2b2

carmine crescent
#

good to know

tardy ingot
ocean spindle
tardy ingot
#

r8b2 maybe with the flyers
But r2b2??

tardy ingot
#

slug being the best anti flyer main is a funny meme

ocean spindle
#

fucking typos i keep writing another letter

tardy ingot
#

but who the fucks picks anti flyer guns

#

i see

scattergun is fair and balanced 👍

ocean spindle

that is true

carmine crescent

ocean spindle
#

any b2

tardy ingot
#

I have done r6a1 with every possible pre r8 loadout

silent delta
#

i like some variety in my gun choices

#

which is why im sad that theres really only like 7 or 8 optimal options in each slot

tardy ingot
#

That includes garbage sawed off/scatter bio

#

its just stupid to play

carmine crescent
#

which is the hardest and easiest a mission solo

ocean spindle
#

when u play r6d1 i always always try and go bullpup and sniper

ocean spindle
#

no matter the circumstances

carmine crescent
#

what is the sec?

ocean spindle
#

easiest probs r8a1 or r6a1

carmine crescent
#

i forgor

ocean spindle
#

3 S scans

carmine crescent
#

damn

#

A mission?

carmine crescent
#

or one idk

tardy ingot
#

easiest
R6A1 or R7A1

Hardest, R8A2

ocean spindle
#

that doesn't count

carmine crescent
#

i dont really count r8a2 as an "A" mission

ocean spindle
#

that's a c tier

tardy ingot
ocean spindle
#

it's conceptually made as a c tier

tardy ingot
#

its an A thats intended to be a mid C/low D in difficulty with secondary

carmine crescent
#

has anyone beaten e2 solo yet?

tardy ingot
#

no

If jish says „yes with exploits“ imma force them to play 10 R8C1s

is there some small brightness setting somewhere I missed? I swear the game looks darker when I play it compared to when I watch ppl play it in videos, and I don't think it's just editing either

it's editing

#

What’s wrong with spear

halcyon current
#

Primarily the movespeed while charging

civic wave
#

Poor damage breakpoints, it cripples your movement

hazy wedge
halcyon current
#

I'll be honest if not for that I'd probably actually use spear

past mesa
#

Just kill the enemies

past mesa
#

And in fast stealth you will never get to melee anything compared to hammer and bat players

#

If you are just in stealth and you never wake up rooms and you play really slowly spear is fine

#

It is better than it used to be but currently spear has the worst stam options in the game

lost flame
#

Spear's nice in ceirtan niche enviorments or situations

past mesa
#

only slow stealth

lost flame
#

lets say lots of big folks to stealth around and you got plenty of damage boosters for melee

past mesa
#

?? But you can just use hammer

halcyon current
#

^

past mesa
#

And get the same results

lost flame
#

Spear more burst dmg, makes it easier to avoid waking anything up

past mesa
#

And be sprinting

#

you have 5 extra burst damage

#

At most

halcyon current
#

I think the only thing spear has is a very small amount more damage on a head opener for giants

past mesa
#

Which isn’t a break point ?

lost flame
#

wait deadass its that little for crit?

halcyon current
#

It's not noticeable in practice

past mesa
#

Yeah

halcyon current
#

Yeah spear is straight up bad

be kind jish he just carried us in r3d1

Compared to hammer 20 base 1.0
muilt

lost flame
#

ill be damned

#

thats

#

fucking nothing

halcyon current
#

Correct

fierce walrus
#

and thats why spear (still) sucks

halcyon current
#

It's 20 vs like 22.75 damage iirc

past mesa
#

That is why we say it is to much of a trade off for no gain

lost flame
#

actually checking the wiki rn

#

its

#

its less than 1 dmg difference on crit full charged

fierce walrus
#

So worth it

past mesa
#

Sounds about right

#

You have to watch out for the melee fall off

halcyon current
#

And all it costs you is your ability to sprint while charging a melee

lost flame
#

26.25 for spear, 26 for hammer

past mesa
#

XD

fierce walrus
#

”balancing”

lost flame
#

man i was severely mistaken just how bad spear was

#

man thats wack since its like

halcyon current
#

You could be doing .25 more damage per attack if you saw off your legs at the knee

lost flame
#

such a cool gun

past mesa
#

Yeah then the other issue with spear is if you fill charge to the body you can light to the body to stagger or kill

#

Without back

fierce walrus
past mesa
#

Which is actually a big deal

#

Tbh

needlessly complicated mechanisms just to eject a sharp object when you can just throw a spear.

Hey guys is there any way to make bots stay still in one place? im trying to play R2C1 and when we need to get to zone 204 (its a level V alarm) the bots simple dont go to the first scan (the one that needs the whole team to complete) im playing with my gf and its like the 4th time we die bc that

digital mural
#

but if bots dont go into scans kick them and add them back

bright sentinel
#

thx bro

woeful steppe
#

I played in the closed beta

digital mural
#

Idk how different closed beta is to the full Game

#

But i know Prime assets were way more stronger

prime musk
#

i have a question about enemy spawning
typically, active enemies always spawn 2 rooms away from you (though extraction room is always a valid spawnpoint for enemies). think alarms and scout waves. reactors have their own weird spawn mechanics but ignore those for now.
uplinks are different though. specifically in r2c1, while doing the uplink in 206B, we have had enemies spawn in 206D, break the door, and end the run (because we didn't expect it, playing duos, and being tired) These rooms are adjacent.
so how do uplink spawns work?

tired aurora
#

even if said zone is 2 rooms big

ocean spindle
#

uplinks enemies spawn enemies within the same zone, and if then can with the two room rule as per usual

tired aurora
#

then they will spawn in the room next to the uplink terminal

ocean spindle
#

but they NEED to spawn in the same zone

prime musk
#

weird,but thanks

civic wave
#

(regular) uplinks will always spawn enemies in the same zone
if possible, enemies will be spawned 2 rooms away from you
if not, they can spawn 1 room away

ocean spindle
#

there's minimal exceptions to that rule but well that's how it basically always is

prime musk
#

is there any way to predict which room 1 away they'll spawn in

#

or is it just random

civic wave
#

as with all wave spawns, random

#

it might be biased towards one direction, but ultimately they can spawn on both sides

prime musk
#

theoretically, if one player where to move themselves to 206D, since both A and C are both available would this spawnblock D

civic wave
#

yep

prime musk
#

we will probably use that then

#

thanks

ocean spindle
#

idk r2c1 very well but i could swear all the uplinks had one way funnels

#

or u could force one with a door opened

#

maybe is some weird niche spawns i haven't had

civic wave
#

i'll DM you an image of that zone, you can't funnel/force one way spawns without spawnblocking

ocean spindle
#

thenk u

red flax
#

How do bioscan speed boosters stack? Is it added per player? Multiplicative? Is having all players with full bioscan boosters significantly better than 1 player with all bioscan speed boosters?

tired aurora
#

nah some zones can have spawns coming from two directions

ocean spindle
#

ok it makes sense

#

nevermind

tired aurora
#

either 202 or 203

#

or both

ocean spindle
#

so if u get 20 and 20 it's the same as one player having 40, i believe that's how it works

#

feel like if it was multiplicative per players u could just break a lot of levels

#

cause two people with aggressive boosters would fuck shit up

woeful steppe
#

the beta had some weird bugs, far worse balancing on the gadgets, and far fewer amps

#

but those were the main differences

#

and less content ig

#

closed beta just had the first kill the snitch mission iirc

#

when they released they added the other 2 main maps, then even later they added courthouse, and then like a month ago(?) they added a new prime asset and his whole map

digital mural
#

so pretty much the same

#

but less content

not choosing the snatcher or the charger is a mistake

#

yall r just too straight to see the truth

#

also the flyer would've been a good option

silent delta
#

snatcher would give excellent tentaclejobs but bad head

ocean spindle
#

nah have u seen its mouth

silent delta
#

have you seen how many tentacles?

#

he could give like 20 different tentaclejobs at once

ocean spindle
#

he's like a million tongues tho

#

in his mouth only

silent delta
#

charger has spikes growing out of his mouth he'd give awful head

#

unless u want a big spike up ur urethra

ocean spindle
#

u clearly haven't seen a certain copypaste about the bbcs

minor fractal
#

Well, they are particularly vulnerable to backshots, but the poll is about head, so it's not really a major selling point.

ocean spindle
#

wait actually does the copypaste say anything about that

#

i don't remember

viral bobcat
#

So for r2modman are things automatically updated to the current version or do you have to do that manually?

upper ginkgo
#

think it's manual

viral bobcat
#

Aight

minor fractal
#

It gives you a prompt.

upper ginkgo
#

but you just have to click one button to update everything

tired aurora
#

its manual but you have to press two buttons

ocean spindle
#

it's manual but u have to click three buttons

#

i added one

upper ginkgo
#

most of the older qol mods don't get updated anymore anyway cause the game's development is done

viral bobcat
#

Kk

#

Does it mess anything up if the mods aren’t up to date?

tired aurora
#

It should be fine

#

as said above development is done so there will be no more updates so you don't have to worry about updates breaking anything and i don't think that mods can break by themselves

viral bobcat
#

Alright

past mesa
#

If it was made post r8 lauch it will 100% work

#

Some are still up there that shouldn’t be

viral bobcat
#

Okay

stiff hearth
#

Cscout doesnt receive head damage? even if shot at back

tired aurora
ocean spindle
#

chargers by all means and reasons don't have heads

#

they are just a torso

stiff hearth
ocean spindle
#

so u just do back damage as with every other enemy

ocean spindle
#

and that's all that matters

stiff hearth
#

yeah but
idk, hel rifle did a hole in the scout charger "head", shot at back, but still screamed

tired aurora
#

that's not possible

ocean spindle
#

if u shot from the back at an angle it could've lost damage by the angle

tired aurora
#

it wasn't shot at back then

#

it was shot at the side

ocean spindle
#

even if it was just like 45 degrees it would still lose enough dmg i believe

stiff hearth
#

could be client issue?

ocean spindle
#

no

stiff hearth
#

my friend did the shot

ocean spindle
#

so to explain- back damage isn't a 0-100 mechanic
the damage scales with the angle, if u hit from the side it will lose damage, and the more u hit it square in the back it will do full damage

#

so ur friend shot it from what it seemed like the back, but it was some degrees off and it didn't die

#

that or heavy desync

#

but u would've notice it

#

like u would've seen an orange hitmarker and stuff

#

and felt desync along the entire run

tired aurora
#

iirc cscouts are facing a bit to the side by default so if you add that to your friend being a bit to the side too then that was probably the issue

ocean spindle
#

u just need to be like straight in the back for any 30 dmg weapon cause it's the exact dmg to oneshot

#

a little too much to the sides and u just won't kill it

#

that or u just have chokemod and instead just do all 4 shells in 0.6 milliseconds to assure it dies

stiff hearth
#

what if

ocean spindle
#

the marvel series yea

#

continue writing kdmskd

stiff hearth
#

what if the shot hits the cscout horn

#

it could be just angle issue

#

but idk it was strange

ocean spindle
#

i mean u probs dont expect it cause tbh it's a niche information kinda

#

it doesn't come up as much as a lot of other concepts

#

but it exists, and it's funky

#

specially funky when u do it kdmskd

stiff hearth
#

btw was r5d1 secondary kekw

ocean spindle
#

ahhh

#

u should've just let the scattergun do it smh

#

mdmskd

tired aurora
#

also being below/above the scout doesn't help with back multi

stiff hearth
#

at least wasn't all that bad, we managed to recover health and ammo

#

but yeah

#

more caution in the next cscout

ocean spindle
#

yeah just like take ur time aiming

#

follow it from behind maybe even

#

to just be sure ur lined up

frail heart
#

Guys I’m stuck on r1a1 solo what loadout do I bring 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

ocean spindle
#

smg shotgun burst sentry and bat with no boosters and 0 ammo for no specific reason other than i just thought about it

#

it'll go real well

past mesa
#

Sentries aren’t very good for these types of levels

frail heart
#

Okay I’m also going to bring short rifle because it has the best wave clear and ammo efficiency and assault rifle because I saw markiplier use it

past mesa
#

since followsers = skill i think mark is the best player in this game ngl

tired aurora
#

don't forget about the macro for short rifle

frail heart
silent delta
#

do chargers get extra damage on headshots if the weapon has a prec multi?

#

even if they dont have a headshot multi

ocean spindle
#

chargers are just a torso for all intents and purposes
so no i do not believe so

#

sniper still takes the same amounts of bullets

#

and it has x2 prec dmg

silent delta
#

you cant headshot a cscout with sniper?

#

silly

ocean spindle
#

you can only back shot it

silent delta
#

if you shoot them in the back of the head do you get back multi

ocean spindle
#

yes

#

again they are a torso so back still counts

silent delta
#

they should just remove the heads altogether and make them be walking torsos

#

they can see and lick without eyes and heads so who cares

ocean spindle
#

me

#

i care

#

:O

silent delta
#

lmao

#

i do too

#

the charger model is so fucked up i love it

frail heart
#

They don’t really have heads

#

It kinda just feels like a blob that is one with the torso

silent delta
#

yeah a bit

#

but their faces are pretty detailed

#

if u havent already take a good look with pdw, they are mega fucked up

marble ore
#

If I brought boosters into an expedition, and click the "Exit Expedition" button, will i loose the boosters I brought in?

boosters are considered spent after about 30 seconds from dropping in

#

Any tips for clearing R2E1? Stuck on this one longer than R2D2 lol

#

Always end up getting wiped after the error alarm door while carrying the neonate, turbine and cell 🥲

civic wave
#

It depends which part specifically you're having trouble with

tardy ingot
#

^

prime musk
#

you can try not carrying cell and instead making a stop at the terminal to ping the cell in zone 602
moving fast is key so having two players available for shooting (probably biotracker and mine deployer to mine doors behind you) could help
you should be able to get through the first room in 602 before first wave reaches you, and can then mine that door
if possible try to save a set of fog repellers from the starting zone for the surge alarm in 602 too

tardy ingot
#

if you wipe due to error before the first surge, then your 4th person (bio) who doesnt carry anything needs to step up with handling the small error

If its the surge or after it depends on what you struggle with (but after that surge you also should ditch the turbine)

#

Searching first error zone cell honestly isnt worth it

Big zone with big rooms. The time spend getting it can just be spent on moving cell

prime musk
#

just seeing the ping even from like 3 rooms away should be enough to know exact location

wheat path
#

how do you manage to not get enemies to spawn in front of you in r2e1 error alarm, wiped like twice cause they spawn ahead and break all doors before we even get to them(at the last surge)

tardy ingot
#

Wait for a wave spawns while 3 rooms away from the room which doors you want to safe

grave kite
#

Thanks for the tips! I don't think think we made it to the surge door yet after the error alarm. It's usually error alarm -> clean wave + the room -> move onto the next room and then get wiped

tardy ingot
tardy ingot
#

the error will become a lot harder down the line

So you rly want to be able to deal with rooms fast and safely. If overwhelmed on a room pull dropping items is always fine

Is it standard strategy to stall the waves at the ladder, and then rush into the foggy neonate room to immediately start the class IV alarm?

tardy ingot
#

ladderfoam generally is very cheesy

grave kite
#

We didn't pull it off successfully, but someone who played with us tried to do it. Seems like a decent tactic to save ammo

tardy ingot
#

and the rushing part basically depends on it

tardy ingot
grave kite
#

Both worked out, its just we were low on ammo to fight the wave haha

#

One of us triggered scout 3 times in the beginning lol

tardy ingot
#

Ladderfoam and somehow still low on ammo

#

d4rkevblank wat

soft crater
#

Hm...

tardy ingot
#

id generally recommend not using ladderfoam

#

tho if r2e1 at this point is too tough, skipping it until you get more experienced is advised

grave kite
#

R2D2 took us like a a day to clear. R2E1 so far took us 1.5 days. Let's see how long we can try until someone from my trio rage quits 🤣

tardy ingot
#

R2E1 is massively massively harder than r2d2

#

Especially if you dont abuse cheese/exploity strats

#

like, 4-6th hardest vs ~25th

#

most people just skip so the morale stays good

#

iirc in og r2 it had a 0,9% completion rate

soft crater
#

R2E1 isn't the hardest level. But it does have the lowest clear rate.

tardy ingot
#

had

soft crater
tardy ingot
#

alt r2e1 might still have due to being generally the first e tier people try (and get stuck on)

#

R4E1, R5E1 and R8E2 are also more replayed by vets

soft crater
#

Speaking of E tiers. The other day Eva. I had a guy asking if R4E1 was supposed to be "hard"

grave kite
#

Oh I agree haha, definitely feels much harder than R2D2. Not having 3 turrets to cover your ass makes fighting waves that much harder.

soft crater
tardy ingot

its honestly pretty save to do so

I love tank

especially when it runs past me

grave kite
soft crater
#

I should just remember to not pub e tiers.

grave kite
#

Turret barely gets used

tardy ingot
#

i mean

#

you dont use anything on first surge

#

Blood door is there so mines help. But also arent mandatory

on 2nd surge nothing rly does much either

soft crater
#

Achyually Scaler said to use ~~ shotgun sentries ~~

tardy ingot
#

then on 3rd you place 2 sentries
(I repeat, foaming the ladder = cheese)

soft crater
#

don't actually use it

tardy ingot
#

but even if scaler redid it. Hel auto just does shotgun sentrys job better

soft crater
tardy ingot
#

@grave kite so idk wherr you are using foam and mines so much monkaHmm

halcyon current
#

Fwiw to you going in order and pubbing missions R2E1 took me like 4 days to do @grave kite

#

I don't even remember bringing mines on my R2E1 winning run

#

It was like

#

Burst, Hel, Bio, Foam iirc

My trio basically just found a 4th random on LFG and followed their strats haha

Using ladderfoam on r2e1 basically invalidates 80% of the level

soft crater
halcyon current
#

If it works it works /shrug

tiny wyvern
#

If you don't your teammates have nice things to say every time

tardy ingot
halcyon current
#

I gotta say as a semi religious mine deployer player you dint always want to bring mines

soft crater
#

Was just curious since the devs at one point said it was a mistake.

halcyon current
#

And R2E1 is one of those levels where mines don't really help imo

grave kite
tardy ingot
#

Mines are fine on it

But like foam (unless you are use ladderfoam) its rly situational and not necessary

tardy ingot
#

cuz a single hel shotty/combat shotty player holds most of the wave while on scan

Then you run away (up or down) from the enemies

#

In general my opinion is that if you use ladderfoam on r2e1 it isnt rly a real win of an E tier mission

#

its like spiff on r8c1pe NOOOOvanish

God now I'm really trying to remember if I ladderfoamed on the winning run out not

tiny wyvern

So I'm doing everything through phone keyboard

Very fun

halcyon current
#

Literally all I remember about that run was it was the first time I really used combat shotgun

#

And boy howdy did Combat Shotty help

tardy ingot
#

Hel shotty/combat shotty loadout solo holding most of the surge

tiny wyvern
#

I just remember forgetting the last cell spot

Would helgun be a good bring?

if your team still wipes you either suck or your 3 teammates cant cover at all

you might get pen
But aim goes out of the window

halcyon current
#

Semi disagree off the logic that it's easier to hit a head when there's 30 of em all together lmao

#

You might not hit the specific one you wanted but you'll hit one

tardy ingot
#

when theres 3 you also are more likely to hit a body

#

but tbh

#

Hel and combat shotty

#

Clear

halcyon current
#

Honestly yeah for how most of r2e1 plays hel shotgun+combat shotgun on the bio player would probably be great

tardy ingot
#

not on bio

#

bio pings

#

Battle cruiser loadout shoots

halcyon current
#

I remember bio being the person who didn't carry anything so they could shoot during that segment

tardy ingot
#

during error youd rather have something to quickly deal with stuff

halcyon current
#

Or at least, being told that's how it should go

tardy ingot
#

can just bring knife, high cal and go ham on smalls/giants and scouts

halcyon current
#

Love the HCP

tardy ingot
#

Great beginner gun (pretty fine overall)

halcyon current
#

It just works

#

I enjoy it on levels where I feel like I'm not provided a lot to shoot at with the burst cannon

#

So a lot of A/B tiers

neon gust
digital mural
#

Eva is lying

soft crater
#

What other bad loadouts are there aside from Eva's Slug/sniper/shotgunsentry/Spear

halcyon current
#

Burst Pistol/Short Rifle/Spear/Shotgun Sentry

soft crater
#

So I've got Jake and Eva noted for now.

#

I'd ask Raya to confirm if they say AR/Arby/Shotgun sentry / Spear is the worst or not

halcyon current
#

i feel like shotty sentry and spear are gonna be consistently picked for this

soft crater
#

Likely

#

Just goes to show how bad the 2 are loadout wise.

#

Otherwise strats/teamcomp

halcyon current
#

You can make arguments for the other melee weapons

#

The other sentries at least have niche value

ocean spindle
#

i still think slug shottie is not as bad as AR simply cause it does some dmg

soft crater
#

I'm only basing Ray's off a R6D2 run Eva and I joined em on

#

Using bad loadouts

#

Though my loadout arguably wasn't bad

halcyon current
#

I don't personally think it's bad

#

Just mediocre

soft crater
#

Burst pistol / PR / Shotgun sentry / Spear

tardy ingot
#

bio technically becomes worst if you stack it

soft crater
#

I want to send out a poll of ppls "worst" loadout eventually

tardy ingot
#

but shotgun sentry is the worst addition to take if your team can adapt to you

civic wave
#

Mine would probably be burst pistol, don't know what secondary, then shotgun sentry spear

tardy ingot
tardy ingot
ocean spindle
#

that's true

#

right i just combined 2 and 2 teehee

soft crater
#

I'll eventually shoot out a poll

halcyon current
soft crater
#

Probably ask Hange and em in my server

halcyon current
#

I'm saying you can't really argue spear is a good melee so people will always pick it as the bad option

#

Whereas the other melees all have arguments towards their uses

tardy ingot
#

oh it just looked weird with the sentry comment

soft crater
tardy ingot
#

theres rly just 1 awful melee and tool

#

hel auto at least as conditional power and niche

halcyon current
#

Agreed, overall

#

Sniper is bad without Bio iirc?

soft crater
#

had someone kept messing up melees because they got so used to spears range

halcyon current
#

But with Bio is good?

#

I almost never see people bring Sniper Sentry

halcyon current
tardy ingot
halcyon current
#

That shit makes me chuckle everytime infallibly

tardy ingot
#

it just teaches them bad things and then you get people stuck on it LUL

halcyon current
#

Dude I always see beginners with spears too, they're attracted to it for some reason

soft crater
#

Maybe if it was prior to the last change sniper sentry had. But currently it's kinda fine without bio

#

Last change iirc adjusted the lock on timing.

#

Next to ammo change.

halcyon current
#

I have seem some people play well with spear but I assume that's because they're already a very competent player and are using spear for the fun factor

soft crater
#

Eva had to control themselves from not black hopping with spear iirc in our r6d2 run

Black hopping?

Yes you fucking should lmao

(not to mention the good ones need practice to be good)

Is it literally just cause AR is a bigger gun?

prime musk
#

as a recent™️ beginner this is how it worked in my group

#

(im 400 hours in now)

halcyon current
#

I think the first weapons I gravitated to were DTR and HCP

#

I just generally prefer non auto fire weapons across all games tho

tardy ingot
#
  1. sniper yes. The weapons high pick rate (which is pretty much confirmed to be the reason for its nerf) comes from sniper being the most well known archetype in shooters. Its simple and clear cut

  2. kinda. But the thing is they argue its better if confronted over it

  3. Automatics arent picked for "higher dps" but "muh many bullets" most of the time. (same for mgs)
    The funny thing is that they then prefer the worst full autos (in bullpup and AR) which is cuz those handle "cleanly" and feel nice to shoot (even if they do jackshit)

  4. I disagree. Lots of good weapons are good of the get go if you are capable of hitting any shots. High caliber pistol, pistol, rifle all dont need insane aim but are good beginner and general choices
    The aboslute top guns might (scatter, hel gun etc) but they also are only a part of it

And well, theres still them picking the worst tools lol

civic wave
halcyon current

Absolutely destroyed

Maybe you should love it more

its actually insane how often the "many bullets" = more ammo to kill comes up for them

Tell it it's a good Sentry when you put it down or something

# tardy ingot 1. sniper yes. The weapons high pick rate (which is pretty much confirmed to be ...

about 2
sniper is better than given credit for
it sucks against literally anything that isn't giants/hybrids but it's very very rare the sniper kill rate on those is too low to keep up (assuming you don't miss) so it does it's job well enough. it only lacks in versatility really
when duoing we took sniper for r2d2 where we could not make it work with either burst cannon or hel rifle (likely a skill issue), but we took burst cannon + hel rifle on r5b1 pe duo which worked well enough
tldr sniper is good at what it does and methinks it can be better than burst cannon and sucks inn all other scenarios. it's weakness is its limitations and aim requirement to actually be good

But for now it gives me anxiety if I feel like I'm not gonna preform immaculately
