another random question

#

how does arti feel after this update? i'm usually pretty bad with her but i saw her, should i even call it a nerf?

idle wasp Mar 27, 2021, 6:12 PM

#

I haven't even tried arti yet after the update

misty hamlet Mar 27, 2021, 6:12 PM

#

no one plays her it takes too much skill

arctic vine Mar 27, 2021, 6:12 PM

#

i could probably find out myself, but i've long given up in being good with her

#

even if she is, surprisingly, my most picked

#

i personally always thought she was slightly underpowered, but too much skill definitely sums her up pretty well

#

well that and i found her basically singular playstyle to be too repetitive

#

you basically have the one skill rotation and straying from that usually gives you a lot of down time where you are just kinda trying not to get hit while things come off cooldown

dull rampart Mar 27, 2021, 6:23 PM

Bandit alt M2 is a throwing shiv that does practically the same thing as the serrated knife. It can just be, as the name suggests, thrown. But it has an arc at range.

arctic vine how does arti feel after this update? i'm usually pretty bad with her but i saw ...

its a buff, bands won't proc on the nanobomb tendrils as much anymore

arctic vine Mar 27, 2021, 6:49 PM

#

i'm not understanding something technically doing less damage as a buff, but alright

civic isle Mar 27, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

any good builds for bandit?

arctic vine Mar 27, 2021, 6:50 PM

#

i don't play her well enough to know why the tendrils procing the bands is a bad thing

shrewd grove Mar 27, 2021, 6:55 PM

#

arctic vine i don't play her well enough to know why the tendrils procing the bands is a bad...

bands proccing on the tendrils makes you lose out on a lot of burst damage, since the tendrils do a tiny amount compared to the big ball

#

200% of 200 damage is much lower than 200% of 5000 damage

#

to choose a random example with somewhat arbitrary numbers

#

so lowering the damage of the tendrils while doubling the tick rate makes it less likely for you to waste the band proc while still keeping the same dps

At first it feels worse since you can't cancel your dash with the uppercut like you can with the regular dash, but all the cooldown reductions combined with slicing wind's cooldown reductions lets me spam high damage attacks like mad on the first boss.

#

tight flame so attack speed just does almost nothing for bandit right?

no attack speed helps with reload speed i think

radiant sparrow Mar 27, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

incorrect, it improves: reload speed, revolver animation speed, and m2 animation speed (important with backup mags)

mellow mango Mar 27, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

tight flame so attack speed just does almost nothing for bandit right?

works on bandit just like anyone else

tight flame Mar 27, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

okay, so that's what i was unsure about; reload speed didn't seem like it would be affected

radiant sparrow Mar 27, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

nah attack speed is good on bandit

tight flame Mar 27, 2021, 7:24 PM

#

cuz it's not affected on characters like artificer

radiant sparrow Mar 27, 2021, 7:26 PM

#

I think it's because it's an actual skill cooldown on artificer

tight flame Mar 27, 2021, 7:30 PM

#

do you guys prefer the throwing dagger or the stab?

arctic vine Mar 27, 2021, 7:30 PM

#

once again my own poor ability with her, but i don't think attack speed does that much for arti

#

unless that changed since i last played

tight flame Mar 27, 2021, 7:31 PM

#

well yeah, that was my point; i was skeptical that attack speed does much for bandit because it doesn't do anything for artificer and they both have mechanically charge-based main attacks

#

but it makes sense that it works for bandit cuz it does seem like his reload isn't just a standard cooldown

plain plinth Mar 27, 2021, 7:32 PM

#

I prefer the stab. It combos well with the smoke bomb's damage and hits a lot of enemies. The throwing dagger is probably good but it felt lackluster. I might give the throwing dagger another chance later.

#

I mean, you got your gun and your r for ranged damage anyway

tight flame Mar 27, 2021, 7:33 PM

#

i personally prefer the shiv because imo it gives me more opportunities to exploit the backstab mechanic; if i see an enemy turn away from me at a distance i can hit them with the shiv but they'll probably refocus on me by the time i run all the way to them

Diablo strike is great against elites you try to kite around

#

Only weaknesses IMO are that it’s hard to hit and that it makes proccing bands hard

Thankfully we have a new lunar item that replaces captains worst ability with something that can proc bands.

the idea seems to be you can use its eviscerate to constantly refil the skill.

#

so that might be a cool combo.

#

the new MulT skill is nice, but you lose the second equipment slot.

#

you also can't use your secondary wep outside of the skill, which buffs defense but also slows you down to 60% speed

blinding is great for killing wisps, focused is good for bursts of high damage on a lesser amount of targets

how do you expect a character to have enough damage with 3 purity, 0.5 s ability cooldowns dont do much if you need 30 lens makers to get a 100 crit and have a 3 % chance to proc meat hooks, atg's, ukuleles, perforators etc, the only way you can deal dmg after a few stages with 3 purity is by going for killchains like willo's and ceremonial daggers, but at that point why even do that in the first place, i dont see how 3 purity could ever be good

i tend to take a lot of damage and rely on healing

worldly perch it's hard when the enemy literally just teleports to you and attacks within 1/4 ...

Tip for phase three: when he does wheel of death, the closer you are to him, the easier it is to dodge

worldly perch Mar 28, 2021, 2:37 AM

#

good to know, i'm always far away because i need to avoid the chimeras

#

because mithrix felt the need to summon his posse to surround me as soon as the phase starts

tulip nimbus Mar 28, 2021, 2:38 AM

Yea if you get close you'll be surprised how easy it is

To dodge the wheel that is, don't get close if he's trying to clobber you lol

Also 80 syringe 6 purity mithrix is a beast to fight

That usually decays other debuffs just cuz they take so long to come down

Be slower then? XD

#

Loop a few times no biggie

#

A thought i just had. Couldnt you cheese eclipse by rushing to stage 5, entering Artifact of Sacrifice map, farming for hour or two and then looping for mithrix?

#

Repulsion armor drops should eventually allow you to negate eclipse 8 effect

dull rampart can i one shot mithrix with desperado only

stack enough crowbars and desperado stacks and you certainly can\

dull rampart Mar 28, 2021, 8:17 AM

Artifacts are disabled on eclipse

Wouldn't it make more sense for Eclipse to be on the menu with the rest of the difficulties? As the fourth diff. Seems weird to be tucked away in another menu.

Can someone who unlocked every achievement share their file at C:> Program Files (x86) > Userdata > 219137714 > 632360 > remote > UserProfiles > another file which is a bunch of letters and numbers? I know the file names sound strange but at the start of that file is where the code words for each achievement unlock lie and if I know them I can create a guide on unlocking the new achievements with cheats

rare thicket Mar 28, 2021, 8:31 AM

#

I can tell you them. You want a dm?
