[unkempt venture]

Bunch of fake wannabes

[pale mountain]

Thats more of a test of patience than skill

[unkempt venture]

Yes n no

[zealous aspen]

wave 120 as in simulacrum??

[unkempt venture]

Need strat

[frail merlin]

I never see someone flex their waves on simalcrum

[pale mountain]

Strat to not crash I guess true

[unkempt venture]

U can backpack or Mala equipment

But you cannot get past 48 without Mala def

[frail merlin]

He means probably command strats

[unkempt venture]

So you need Mala drop

[zealous aspen]

the easiest gamemode ever?? lmao
how do you have the patience to play the laggiest most repetitive gamemode ever but not the attention span to look through a couple of channels or ask

[unkempt venture]

Or spam backpack

[zealous aspen]

simulacrum is not difficult

like ever unless you're early game and you're getting boss aspect of the void

[unkempt venture]

Any doubt that comes from within is only your own weakness

[frail merlin]

You should try eclipse

[zealous aspen]

if you think monsoon simulacrum is hard I think you'd think loader is challenging

[pale mountain]

I think it's just a young'un tbh

[zealous aspen]

yeah I doubt it could be otherwise

[forest pumice]

Kids these days

[frail merlin]

Firstly is not touching the ground I like to try to stay on the enemy back as much as possible and using the secondary as shown in the clip is the best way
And the second and last thing I wanted to say that I do think learning it yourself through trial and error is the best way so good luck

[wintry ivy]

Visions of heresy on engi is wild btw

Like it's so weird

[pale mountain]

Yeah it's op on his turrets

[wintry ivy]

Can the turrets turn into heretic

Well no

Cus engi becomes heretic

[timid cedar]

Thanks 👍

[wintry ivy]

Imagine if somehow turrets become heretic

[frail merlin]

They wouldn’t even if you modded in the item to the turret

[wintry ivy]

True I guess

[pale mountain]

Here is some of the combo stuff you can do with blinding assault, with slicing winds instead of eviscerate you can extend it further

Which is why this merc loadout is my fav

By doing whirlwind immediatly after blinding assault you can cut the dash early for more dps by continuing the combo faster.

[pale mountain]

In case you wanna try something like that too

[frail merlin]

So we can at least agree that the secondary alt is clearly the superior one

[pale mountain]

For sure rising thunder messes things up and you can't do the skip

[frail merlin]

🤝

[pale mountain]

Tho I think the skip is kinda bugged with the physics rn anyways lol

[frail merlin]

Yeah console just have weaker physics than pc

[frail merlin]

Bdw you weren’t moving so much in that loadout which is clearly a weakness I think you should have sprinted more if that was possible

Interesting loadout tho might give it a try

[pale mountain]

Well it's not even my clip tbh, I just looked for them in an old channel since I couldn't find any old clips of it on my switch

[frail merlin]

Ah that makes sense I will just check out how flexible that loadout is tomorrow then

[pale mountain]

Tho I did find this goofy shit from back in the 1.0 version

[frail merlin]

Music to my ears

[pale mountain]

Proced so many exposes merc turmed into a whacky statue

[frail merlin]

I didn’t even notice that the uke proc chain was a but to distracting for me

Bdw isn’t the merc whacky statue still exist I remember getting it somewhere

[pale mountain]

Yeah probably

I think I took the clip because of the nutty procs as well

Only noticed while going through these old clips how weird merc looks

[frail merlin]

Fair enough

[timid cedar]

What do y’all think is the best survivor for switch

[pale mountain]

Could always unga bunga Lodr

[frail merlin]

Everyone except railgunner

[wispy crypt]

Nah shit like that still exists

Like even after the patch ive seen merc freeze in a random animation and it looks goofy as shit

[frail merlin]

I like the bug

The secret way of enjoying console is appreciating the bugs
-console masochist

[wispy crypt]

I like that you cant reproduce it and it just happens occasionally without a warning so you always get surprised by it

[frail merlin]

Maybe I should make a tierlist of the console bugs🤔

[pale mountain]

As it should be

[frail merlin]

I think as shown in the clip he uses his secondary 2 times in a short period of time resulting in a whacky statute

[pale mountain]

Nah it was just one

[wispy crypt]

Yeah theres no way to force it

[pale mountain]

Was just extremely slow because of the amount of freeze frames from the expose hits

[wispy crypt]

I once got that while only attacking a stone titan and that was stage 1

[pale mountain]

Lol nice

[wispy crypt]

So idfk what could cause the freeze

[pale mountain]

Getting that off of 1 enemy is really weird

[frail merlin]

I must have been on something else cause I remember seeing 2 slicing wind and now I see only one should I sleep it’s 2 am😭

Actually I don’t need to ask I’m just going straight to bed

[paper moss]

I unlocked loader and decided to have a little fun, barely picked up items most of those are boss items 6 of them in pretty sure, but damn that was fun just team rocket blasting off again into everything.

[arctic island]

Hey, my friend is trying to join me and he kept getting disconnected. He tried hosting and it said “Failed to Host due to NAT type”. What does this mean? I’ve never seen this issue before

Feel free to ping me!

[white quarry]

NAT type has to do with the connection between your system and your internet sourcing hardware (put very simplistically), a break down of which one you might have and why:
Open NAT: this is ideal, open connection from your modem to your system, through wifi or Ethernet
Double NAT: this means your internet is being sourced from 2 different outputs, it can interfere with multiplayer. Fixing it entails restricting your source to one piece of hardware (usually the modem and a router are both producing a connection).
Strict NAT: this is a property of the network that you can’t change, usually found in business settings and in the work place.
Moderate NAT: better not to host when on this, can have slight interference in voice chats and multiplayer games, to fix it use an Ethernet cable to source internet to your system.

You or the person you are trying to play with have incompatible NAT types

Try to achieve an open connection on each end

I have a double NAT and can’t fix it due to the nature of my situation, and it’s not too bad

[white quarry]

You probably have a Moderate NAT type

But you should be able to check

[arctic island]

We solved the issue. He was connected to a hotspot streaming his main wifi. He connected to the wifi directly after digging for the passcode. Thanks for the info!!

[floral ocean]

Quick question can someone invite a person to a game if said person doesn’t have ps plus or no?

[meager niche]

you can

but they cant join

[floral ocean]

Oh I was wondering because I don’t have ps plus

[meager niche]

yeah you cant enter the MP section without it

[floral ocean]

Man…

[twin igloo]

railgunner is fine tbh

also it depends on the scenario

basically any melee survivor for handheld and huntress

but mainly huntress for handheld in my opinion

when connected to moniter/tv literally any it doesn't matter llmao

[frail merlin]

Compared to the other it’s not so great but doable just the lag make it really hard to aim it’s really hard on beginners who aren’t so used to the lag I said railgunner cause it’s the survivor who is most affected by switch weaknesses

[solar crow]

My gummy rex just pushed the spider off the map😢 they grow up so quick

[wispy crypt]

What spider?

[fiery vessel]

Guys how do you get mobile Turrets?

[wispy crypt]

Thats so easy I forgot what you even had to do

What do you have to do for that again?

[fiery vessel]

Idk

[solar crow]

🤯

[pale mountain]

Just do everything then

[fiery vessel]

What

Can someone just tell me how to get the mobile turrets?

[pale mountain]

You can check in the logbook

[fiery vessel]

Already in a game so I can't check

[pale mountain]

It says all you need for each unlock

[pale mountain]

You just needs 12 minions

So turrets, drones and whatever else you can find

[fiery vessel]

Oh okay

Thx

[paper moss]

Did a thing with the short king but died at a tp to a horde of elders

[old sage]

I really can’t believe they made an entire DLC based on the worst part of the game

[wispy crypt]

Wdym worst part?

Void reavers are balanced

[old sage]

I love the void RAAAAAH

[severe iris]

I also enjoy taking damage for just existing

[frail merlin]

Sounds like a skill issue

[quartz mirage]

If you use the equipment that spawns drones those also count and makes it really easy

[fiery vessel]

Ok

[heady heart]

You have wayyyyy too few items 😭

[severe iris]

He died with two dollars and half a pack of chewing gum on him

[pale mountain]

and a plant

[quartz bay]

five minutes per stage mentality loot

[heady heart]

Its worse when you realize they didnt even have 5 minutes per stage since theyre on abyssal 😭

[pale mountain]

1 item per stage mentality

[jolly dagger]

full looting >>

seven minute stage 1

[white quarry]

Doing an experiment to see how many games are command sac swarm multiplayer lobbies

5 lobbies so far and all of them have been command sac swarm

[meager niche]

pretty much all of them are, atleast here on console

idk if this a thing for everyone but after the update, the MP lobbies do get more chests than usual

[white quarry]

That was always a thing

[meager niche]

Idk, it was never like that pre-sotv on console

[white quarry]

I definitely noticed it on my end

[meager niche]

but yeah, i tried looking for no artifact lobbies in MP, at this point i just roll with it

[white quarry]

It’s soo boring

There’s no challenge

Just item picking sim

I just assume everyone in those lobbies are just new

[meager niche]

agreed, i say in my time of playing, i ever only got 5 non-artifact runs

at this point, im more worried about the host leaving

I just run engi so i can somewhat reliably heal people, and thats if they dont run inside a void seed and kill themsleves

[white quarry]

I noticed in multiplayer everyone loves standing still

Like using any interactable sends them to a complete halt

[meager niche]

Alot of em have no clue what goes with what honesty

seen a loader pick up bungus and never use it

[white quarry]

I do hope gb adds a browser

[meager niche]

and when they did, had to do it near a dying dunestrider

[white quarry]

Although seems they are only interested in new content right now

[meager niche]

Browser for what, like item synergies or guides

[white quarry]

For multiplayer

[meager niche]

money money money*

[white quarry]

Shows a list of lobbies you can join

[meager niche]

ah i see

[white quarry]

Naming lobbies so you know “no artifacts monsoon” is happening

[meager niche]

what a blessing if they do

though i doubt they'll be populated anyways

[white quarry]

Well if that improvement is made I reckon multiplayer will naturally be more appealing

Can only dream

[meager niche]

man at the same time though, i love getting random lobbies with noobs and helping them explore the game

theres something special about new players in a game you like

[twin igloo]

Why does bandit feel so much better on pc it's not even kind of funny

[fiery vessel]

Bruh I beat the game with loader but I didn't get the skin.

[pale mountain]

Did you forgor Monsoon

[frail merlin]

I’m still suffering on trying to get used to the control I still prefer bandit on the switch just because of the controls

[fiery vessel]

Maybe

[gritty fog]

Probably

[fleet pumice]

Is cross platform a thing?

[timid cedar]

I don’t think so :/

[fleet pumice]

Damn

[gritty fog]

Nope

[paper moss]

I may have took his as a challenge

15 mins

[pale mountain]

Yeah that's a more efficient loot to time ratio

[paper moss]

I saw that

[frail merlin]

Dammit

[paper moss]

Should I tho?

[frail merlin]

I don’t think it is possible to do 2 per minute that why I changed it to 1 but later I realized you already did that

[paper moss]

Oh lmao

[heady heart]

U sure it was on monsoon

[warped cloak]

Use this and enough void items that the corruption is 25%

[fossil glen]

Yes!!!! Finally got my first monsoon clear with commando

[paper moss]

The desperado experience:

[forest pumice]

The command experience

[paper moss]

https://tenor.com/view/shut-up-shush-shh-ok-bird-gif-17679708

If I have fun does it really matter? Also I do play no artifacts like 50% of the time

[uneven holly]

I play with command

Is that not good?

[tacit forge]

nothing wrong with it, but it does definitely make the game at least 10x easier

[uneven holly]

Yes, that’s why we do it😭

[twin igloo]

C'mon guys, if you aren't running full self damage rex on ecplise 8 are you really playing console?

[white quarry]

The only unlock I don’t have is viend mastery

And I really don’t want to play viend

[simple swift]

Anyone down for a game ?

[tribal rover]

Why the viend hate?

[white quarry]

He’s so unfun

Just rt simulator with occasional m2, at least captain can kill stuff with his spam. The other abilities are awkward to use and don’t feel intuitive, just unpleasant

[frail merlin]

Void fiend is eh not really anything boring with him or fun with him it’s like a slightly more fun multi really easy eclipse climb tho

[pale mountain]

Yeap

[maiden musk]

My game crashed yesterday on a 5 hour run just as I was going to fight voidling loving the dlc though

[meager niche]

5 hour run , nice

[safe helm]

i just bought the game last night, played for 6 hours, unlocked 2 characters and now those characters are gone even tho i have the achievements for them any advice?

[worthy plinth]

Completely random, since I don't really play multiplayer ror2, but what would be the best character to duo with mobile turret engie?

I feel like either arti or loader would be the best pair with engie, but maybe I'm wrong

[frail merlin]

Captain with the support of the drones it would make the turret and engineer survive better and as both being close to the same speed one could not as easily be a loot goblin

[worthy plinth]

Fair, but both engineer and captain struggle heavily with mobility and fall damage

[frail merlin]

Captain has micro bots so he is more fine than engi in that regard also fall damage is only a matter of skills if you knows you stuff you won’t be taking fall damage so much

[worthy plinth]

It's why I figured that loader and arti would do well with engie. Engie can hoard a lot more of the mobility stuff.

While they don't need it nearly as much

[frail merlin]

Arti do need mobility

[worthy plinth]

Not feathers, which is all I truly care about

But for regular monsoon, I'll agree that captain probably pairs with engie better than those 2

[frail merlin]

I only said captain cause they synergy the most if someone pick loader or multi they are totally gonna be carrying the engineer the whole run especially if the engineer dies and fall behind items

[worthy plinth]

I wouldn't say carry, but loader does probably chip away at the teleporter boss much quicker than engie

[frail merlin]

He will get one single band and suddenly he does 10x more damage than engi

[worthy plinth]

But who knows, bleed is pretty powerful, but so are bands

[frail merlin]

But the most important thing is mobility because loader is way faster than engineer he will just fly around the map getting most of the item

Well of course depends on the teammates but those are rare and few

[worthy plinth]

I mean, in context of e8, I'd figure that they'd be working together pretty heavily

[frail merlin]

I would have something to say about e8 multiplayer if gearbox didn’t forget to add it in

[worthy plinth]

I forgot that e8 multiplayer isn't possible on console

That sucks

Yeah, captain it is then

[frail merlin]

Well it’s probably better to experience it instead of theorizing it

[worthy plinth]

I honestly just figured "Hey, engie and loader thrive with a lot of items that the other finds completely irrelevant (i.e. engie thrives with hopoo feathers while loader thrives with backup mags)

[frail merlin]

I didn’t really think about items but if loader could just go around the map and buy a lot of items for engi to pick and it would mean a very good looting team or something like that

Have had my fair of loot goblins to deal with

[worthy plinth]

Bleed, attack speed, plimp, icbm, etc. all go well better on engie than loader, while backup mags, hardlights, bands, etc. go better with loader than engie

[worthy plinth]

It's why I mostly prefer singleplayer lol

[frail merlin]

Yeah fair enough I used to play a bunch of multiplayer until I stopped half a year ago

But the pc side have showed me a lot better

[worthy plinth]

All I know is that on eclipse, engie and captain may synergize pretty well because of captains passive, but both are gonna be scrambling for mobility

[frail merlin]

It depends on the luck do keep in mind that multiplayer does provide more loot and maybe a lucky printer but all runs depends on luck so can’t really say this is special

[worthy plinth]

They don't make up for each others weaknesses, all they do is buff each others strengths

[worthy plinth]

That is true

[frail merlin]

Can say it’s the same on other survivor

[worthy plinth]

Now my question is

How stupid would it be if it was a 4 player lobby, 3 engineers and 1 captain

Obviously with mobile turrets because the bungus synergy is way overrated

[frail merlin]

Mobile turret enjoyer🤝

[worthy plinth]

I had to become a mobile turret enjoyer to beat e8 lol

[frail merlin]

It’s possible to do e8 stationary if you just use the put the turret in walls and rock tech

Mithrix basically becomes free with that

[worthy plinth]

Fair but why use cheese tactics

[frail merlin]

Because people wanna have it easy

[worthy plinth]

I literally have 600 lunar coins right now because I find lunars to make runs far too easy

On eclipse

[frail merlin]

I just don’t wanna spend my lunar coins it’s the only satisfaction I get from flexing my 800 lunar coins in multiplayer

[worthy plinth]

Sure I might grab a lunar if it's a naturally spawning blue portal, but that's rng blessing me with overpowered items, basically the same thing as getting a good red

[frail merlin]

It’s fine if you only avoid these the rest I founds things to spice up the run

[worthy plinth]

I'm not just going to the bazaar stage 1 and grabbing 5 transcendances to make e8 free y'know

[frail merlin]

That would cost so much lunar coins

[worthy plinth]

Overexaggeration but still

[frail merlin]

Can’t really blame them that much for picking up a transcendence it is like a quality of life item just don’t give in the temptation

[worthy plinth]

I'd be completely fine with lunars being busted if it was a currency that didn't carry over every run

[frail merlin]

Tbh I wouldn’t mind if that was the case but it’s to late to change that😔

[worthy plinth]

It's why I'm completely fine with getting lunars if it's a natural blue portal

[frail merlin]

I prefer using the lunar pods

[worthy plinth]

Fair enough

But that wastes my lunar coins on something I 99% of the time won't use

And I relate with you with the idea of flexing lunar coins

[frail merlin]

I just have a addiction to lunar pods never fails to open to if I see it I would have much more lunar coins if I stopped

[worthy plinth]

As we all know, all ror2 players are gambling addicts

Do not let us near a casino

We all know the chance shrine is gonna give us a bison steak and yet we still put money into it 4 more times

[worthy plinth]

Can gup family events be disabled on console? It is the most guaranteed crash on any looped run.

I chose very specific items to ensure I didn't crash (scrapped all fireworks, got plimp so there's not just missiles floating randomly around) and it doesn't matter because 4 hours in, rng blesses me with the secret ending that I tried avoiding: game crash

[dusky rivet]

At least you crashed my switch refused to crash even on 6 hour in the end i gave up

[worthy plinth]

I get that crashing the game is part of the fun of looping, but still

Sometimes you don't want that

[dusky rivet]

Theres not much on console you can do to prevent crashing

[worthy plinth]

Very easy to avoid crashes on console by scrapping all your fireworks and stickybombs on any loop run going past 2nd or 3rd loop

Not like you truly need them, at that point you're already god himself

But gups specifically are not very welcoming to the concept of a framerate

[frail merlin]

For me it’s sounds like it didn’t work

[wispy crypt]

To avoid crashes on console just dont loop 4 times or more

[frail merlin]

I barely loop in this game im a straight to Mithrix enjoyer

[wispy crypt]

I always loop once so the run becomes more unique and memorable

[worthy plinth]

I only went to mithrix for my e8 engineer run because I was forced to

After I beat e8 on him, I never went straight to mithrix on him ever again, I looped because the eclipse grind for engie was over lol

After that, most e8 runs you'd see me loop once or twice before killing mithrix

[frail merlin]

I think almost all my eclipse run is just going to Mithrix

Makes Mithrix feels like I am fighting a boss

[worthy plinth]

I run straight to mithrix until I beat e8 on that specific character once

I am a loop enjoyer

In this case I've only beaten e8 on engie because I'm too lazy to get back to my rex grind

(Playing rex has somehow made me hate blind pests more than I did before)

[wispy crypt]

Blind pests arent too bad

Blind vermin are the real fuckers

Especially blazing omes

[worthy plinth]

On rex specifically they're a pain in the ass

[wispy crypt]

Every time I fight a blazing blind vermin I just want to cry and beg my teammates to deal with the things for me

[worthy plinth]

Never had much of a problem with them, even on rex

[wispy crypt]

With blind pests you just gotta be constantly moving to avoid them with blind vermin you have to jump like an idiot too

And the vermin are so fucking fast

For rex thats childs play because he can root them but for others theyre awful

Especially for commando and captain since they have no reliable aoe

[worthy plinth]

Nah I don't even root them, I just use my movement ability lol

I use full machine loadout to prep myself for e8

Rip off arrow rain is surprisingly not bad against them, especially with either a will o wisp or gasoline

Any amount of aoe gets rid of the hordes of them pretty easily

As for commando and captain, haven't decided to grind eclipse on them yet, but I imagine commando isn't too horrible against them with how he has pretty good mobility

[wispy crypt]

Good luck hitting them though

Thats the worst part about them

[worthy plinth]

Feel bad for captain though

Because I can see how it's pretty bad for him

[wispy crypt]

I guess its fair since he has an easy time with pests cuz he deletes their projectiles but jesus christ is it horrible to fight vermin as him

[worthy plinth]

Target priority ig

Gotta take out vermin and wisps first as captain

Although, wouldn't his orbital strikes be decent aoe

[wispy crypt]

Yes howerver orbital strike isnt real anymore from the moment you unlock diablo

[worthy plinth]

Diablo kinda sucks for anything other than killing beetle queens or chunking mithrix at the start of the fight

And even then, captain already shreds bosses pretty decently with his primary

[wispy crypt]

Diablo is underrated

It may be situational but so is captain altogether and the item synergies it had are absolutely nuts

[wispy crypt]

SINCE WHEN COULD YOU PRESS LEFT OR RIGHT AT THE RESPECTIVE EDGE OF THE LOG MENU TO SKIP TO THE OTHER END

THAT COULDVE SAVED ME SO MUCH TIME SPAMMING THROUGH THE CHALLENGES SECTION

[paper moss]

YOU CAN?!?!?!

[timid cedar]

🤯

[worthy plinth]

Y'all didn't know that?

[cinder cloak]

Any one wanna play monsoon

[paper moss]

Found this goober a few runs ago and their AI just broke or something

[wispy crypt]

Yeah that sometimes happens

[paper moss]

He just be CHILL like that :3

[wispy crypt]

This is either due to their ai just not existing or being bugged

For example sometimes if youre far enough away mithrix will just stand still at the beginning of his 3rd or 4th phase

Usually these issues get resolved by going very close to whatever is just standing still

[frail hazel]

20 Beatles can fit in a rock

[frail merlin]

How silly of gearbox to forget these bugs

[wispy crypt]

I just hope they keep the silly ones in

Like mithrix and you falling out of his arena

That one was so funny when it happened to me

[frail merlin]

Hell no it’s ruin the fight it’s like using that one cheese on him but rng

[wispy crypt]

Maybe for you but I laughed my ass off when in my swarms run one mithrix pushed the other to his death

And then me down

And then fell down himself

And then had phase 2 enemies scatter all around the lower moon

[frail merlin]

It won’t be funny the 46th time so it should get fixed

[frail hazel]

Excuse me but MULTIPLE MITHRIXS CAN HAPPEN?

[wispy crypt]

Artifact of swarms shenanigans

[frail hazel]

oh god

That’s terrible

[wispy crypt]

Just put on artifact on chaos too and the 2 will just beat each other up

Funniest shit ive ever seen

[frail hazel]

Oooo

Wait that’s a good idea

[wispy crypt]

But its actually really cool to see 2 of the same boss attack each other

At least for some bosses

Like it looked so amazing seeing 2 solus control units fire at each other while rising further and further up

[frail hazel]

Who wins mithrix or beatle queen stone titan and wandering vagrant

[wispy crypt]

And then seeing the second solus unit die fighting its own probe

[frail hazel]

I love playing as loader and making the secret boss in sirens call spin uncontrollably by just grappling onto them

[dire bane]

Time for the cope levels for rex

[frail merlin]

Ah finally someone notices my suffering

But my new pc is distracting me to much gonna take a while to get back to switch

[dire bane]

You should probably get ror2 on your pc then since the game is still bugged

[frail merlin]

I have terraria and ror2 on my pc that’s all

[dire bane]

Good games

[frail merlin]

Also a great discount they had

[dire bane]

You can use mods to get your progress back on ror2

And get your eclipse levels back

[frail merlin]

I did with all the achievements I won’t do the eclipse lvl cause the control are completely different and no console bugs so it will be kinda new

[dire bane]

True

[frail merlin]

Really having a hard time getting used to the movement especially the sprint button

[dire bane]

I'm using controller even though I have the option to use keyboard, too used to it

[frail merlin]

I probably should do that but I really wanted to learn how to play on the keyboard I should be able to become decent at it after some weeks of playing around

[dire bane]

Yea

Honestly the only thing I use my keyboard to play is a rhythm game called adofai lmao

[frail merlin]

Rhythm game my one weakness

At least terraria have been a blast with the mods

[dire bane]

Im pretty bad at them but adofai is really fun

[frail merlin]

Never heard of it but I might check on it if that’s the case

[dire bane]

Get rivals of aether it is better smash and has great mods too

[frail merlin]

Tbh I’m not really a big fan on smash games I only enjoy playing it with my brothers

[dire bane]

Fair

[frail merlin]

I probably get some more game after I finished playing terraria I’m just addicted to it currently

[dire bane]

I played too much on my switch and I don't feel like playing it alot on my pc bc of that

I heard calamity mod was really good

[wispy crypt]

Switch terraria has aim lock on which is very nice

[frail merlin]

I did play terraria a lot of it but it never became boring and the mods just multiplied it

[wispy crypt]

Dont know if pc has that too but ive never seen that on pc so im assuming no

[dire bane]

I played on 1.3 when I was into the game

[dire bane]

I'm down to play it together sometime if you want

Or ror2

[frail merlin]

Maybe but that would means I would have a 3rd run created the first being the single player the second being with my friends I am catching up for after I finally got a pc

[dire bane]

Yea that could be overwhelming

[frail hazel]

Why do the crab guys keep falling through the ground

[forest pumice]

Skill issue on their part

[paper moss]

Makes it easier to get gesture smh

[frail hazel]

I didn’t even think about that

I for some reason thought that I wouldn’t be able to get gotd

I’m dumb

[frail hazel]

They are playing on eclipse 9 aka if you fall at all you die no matter what

[buoyant heart]

"You only celebrate in the light... because I allow it."

[twin igloo]

epic guitar riff

[gritty fog]

BA NA NOW NA NOW NOW

[frail merlin]

As long you are not on switch

[tacit forge]

everything falls through the ground

[paper moss]

Damn the backrooms going to get full at this rate

[frail merlin]

Rex got buffed this update

[covert moat]

Any merc mains notice that blinding assault feels off?

[frail merlin]

Maybe it’s just got fixed

[frail hazel]

They don’t wanna fight us because they know what we are and they know they won’t win

So they just go through the ground to die from fall damage just to not fight us

[frail merlin]

Try saying that to the elder lemerian

[frail hazel]

Well they just hate us

[pale mountain]

It's lemurian😡

[frail merlin]

Opps

[wispy crypt]

ITS LEMMYS

[pale mountain]

Cause lizards look like this apparently I dunno

[frail merlin]

Seems like they are not dinosaur after all

[covert moat]

So this current version is what its supposed to be?

[frail merlin]

I don’t know I’m just guessing but I can compare it on my pc after I’m done with what I’m doing

[covert moat]

I wish i had old footage of pre-dlc merc. Its subtle but definitely feels noticeable

[frail merlin]

Seems like they’re other that have the same opinion #1175128354140192900 message

[covert moat]

Thats the exact issue

It seriously guts that ability and i might have to hold off on my e8 merc win until it gets fixed /:

[remote frost]

Can help me get some more artifacts

[frail merlin]

A true console masochist would never give up for a simple bug

[covert moat]

Hmm tyou got me there

[little pilot]

I wish I had more fun with Mithrix dude, eclipse would be so fun to try if I didn't hate fighting this boss

[frail merlin]

Do voidling then

[wispy crypt]

Cant do that though until after mithrix

[frail merlin]

Nope the purple portal or void fields

[wispy crypt]

Purple portal doesnt exist in eclipse though

Not sure about vields but I also think you gotta do moon man before ling

[frail merlin]

Hmmm weird voidling is obviously harder than Mithrix so why not allow the purple portal

Wonder if they will do the same on the upcoming dlc

[worthy plinth]

Dunestriders have become my temporary most hated monster in the game

This will last a few hours until I find something else I find frustrating to die to

[frail merlin]

Weak hate jelly fish should go extinct

[worthy plinth]

2 dunestriders doing their suck attack at the same time is not fun to deal with

[frail merlin]

Actually scratch that I hate all monster except beetle

[worthy plinth]

We all inevitably get frustrated at something we otherwise don't have much of a problem with

But 2 dunestriders sucking me in at the same time while the only mobility I have is a goat hoove and whip isn't fun

[frail merlin]

Shouldn’t you be expecting the attack they only do it when low health so just move away when it’s low it’s been such a long time since I died to that attack

[worthy plinth]

I got greedy

With the teleporter charging

It's absolutely 100% my fault, I understand that, but I don't care, I'm still mad lol

[frail merlin]

A tip that I hear a lot is don’t get greedy with the teleporter zone just ignore it and only charge when there’s is no danger or trying to get rid of spawn

[worthy plinth]

Bro I see all these youtubers and streamers sticking mostly outside the tp until the boss is dead and my ass says "nah, fuck it we ball"

[frail merlin]

And look what you ended up with your ideas

[worthy plinth]

What can I say

I balled

And I balled too hard

[frail merlin]

At least you didn’t get balled by the clay dunestrider

[worthy plinth]

The funny thing is, the dunestrider may have gotten me low and I survived the suck, but a blind pest was what finished me off

[frail merlin]

I feel like I get hit by a brass contraption every time a blind pest hit me especially on e8

[worthy plinth]

Fr

It's why I completely avoid siphoned forest as rex

[frail merlin]

Blind pest have been the only reason to play captain

[worthy plinth]

Siphoned forest on rex is an instant reset cause my stupid ass can't aim

[frail merlin]

I do the opposite just to get better at dealing with blind pest

Pain and suffering is the only thing that keep improving me

[worthy plinth]

It's not a matter of me failing to deal with blind pests, it's me failing to be able to aim with a controller

[frail merlin]

When I say dealing I mean killing and dodging and to kill them you need good aim bandit and railgunner especially helped me with their weird movements

[worthy plinth]

Hitscan characters and engineer can easily deal with them, but projectile characters I suck with

Playing the game, no matter the enemy, will improve my projectile aim and I don't care how much copium I'm on

[frail merlin]

Fair enough

Also can we just talk about the e1 modifier and how it’s absolutely sucks because it’s just so item and character specific that it more like a nerf than a restriction compared to the other modifier

[worthy plinth]

My only objective with rex is to beat e8 for bragging rights. After that I'm probably never touching the character again in anything other than monsoon

[frail merlin]

You should at least try some of the other fun characters like the merc eclipse is easily the most fun I had

[worthy plinth]

I never really liked merc, but who knows, maybe I just haven't discovered the proper playstyle

[frail merlin]

He has the most playstyle of all character with loadout that all works so there’s is no supreme loadout

[worthy plinth]

Going for merc after rex though just because I know that he's considered a pretty inconsistent/bad character for eclipse, similar to engineer and rex

Getting the hard characters out of the way so that easier characters are a walk in the park

Just gotta hope that gearbox adds back keyboard and mouse support for console before I get to railgunner

[frail merlin]

I never said he was hard… if you wanna go for the next hardest it’s probably commando he is quite hard to master making him really hard only when you are finish the eclipse it’s becomes easy

I did commando post dlc so maybe I am wrong

[worthy plinth]

I figured commando would have been easier

Good mobility, really good primary, a rapid fire stun, and a close range heavy hitting attack

His mobility and primary are what I'm mainly after

[frail merlin]

Merc has definitely better mobility but compared to its contenders I can only think about these arti have I never done so can’t say anything captain has its micro bots which is better than the commando slide railgunner has insane damage and quite good mobility

[worthy plinth]

All I know is that commando is one of the characters I definitely enjoy playing, similar to huntress, bandit, arti, and especially engineer

[frail merlin]

The eclipse modifier overwhelms commando simplicity so you need some insane dodging skills doing commando eclipse cause you are not sprinting so much which makes him a hard eclipse

[worthy plinth]

Makes sense, I'll still prob enjoy my commando grind

One thing's for certain, I'll enjoy it more than my rex grind

[frail merlin]

you enjoy it when you are done with Rex

See you later playing commando after a couple of months

[worthy plinth]

Bro I'll still be grinding rex after a couple months because it feels like a chore and I'm procrastinating hard on it💀

[frail merlin]

And you are not even on e8💀

[worthy plinth]

E7 kicked my ass harder than e8 on engie tbh

Cause I had to get used to the cooldowns, but once I got used to it, e8 only took me 2 tries

[frail merlin]

E7 and E5 just prepare you for E8

Anyway have to go to see some new year fire works

[worthy plinth]

E5 really isn't as big of a deal as people make it out to be. You should be focusing more on mobility and damage no matter what

[frail merlin]

It’s hard for beginners

[worthy plinth]

E5 forced me to resort to mobile turrets cause bungus wasn't anywhere near as viable as it was before e5

I then learned that I love mobile turrets

[dusky rivet]

Stationary turret strenght isnt bungus tho

[worthy plinth]

The range doesn't do nearly as much as you'd think

Cause the mobile turrets just walk towards the enemy

And get in range

[dusky rivet]

Its the proc coeffient

Its does more damage than mobile turret but dies more

[worthy plinth]

In eclipse, I don't think you're gonna get nearly as many atgs, ukuleles, etc. unless you're looping

[dusky rivet]

We call that luck

But also bleed is what it does best

Still think mobile turret are better tho

[worthy plinth]

Especially with how it more easily frees up wungus as an option, and makes bungus turn into scrap

And by more easily, I mean you take the wungus. There's no reason not to

[dusky rivet]

Living in a new year

[forest pumice]

How's the console version in 2024?

[dusky rivet]

Buggy

[forest pumice]

[twin igloo]

damn

[timid cedar]

The only thing I can use to describe it is

[meager niche]

HAPPY NEW YEARS MY FELLOW SURVIVORS.

[proud nymph]

heppy naw yaer

[quartz bay]

bad new year 😈

[frail merlin]

Great new year

[thin vale]

awful new year

[pale mountain]

Maybe the rebuild will get finished this year

[frail merlin]

I can’t imagine myself that

[forest pumice]

Gup new year

[ebon bough]

i tjoight the rebuild waz the sotv ildate

[pale mountain]

Allegedly

[frail merlin]

Maybe the rebuild was the friend we made along the way

[meager niche]

Yep

[cloud tulip]

:geep:

[severe iris]

Happy new gup

[wispy crypt]

The patch we got wasnt finished yet and probably just got released early due to the 10th anniversary

[frail hazel]

After one week of playing mostly void fiend I just found out you can charge the plasma bomb

[frail merlin]

Man was playing under a rock

[worthy plinth]

Small question: What is the range for mobile turrets

Cause I know that focus crystals are pretty good for them but focus crystals apply the damage boost within a 13m radius

[forest pumice]

All I know is it's shorter than the stationary ones

[frail merlin]

I’m pretty sure it has more range than the focus crystal but because of it behavior it’s usually sticks closer to the enemy allowing it to make use of the focus crystal

Don’t know anything about the range tho all I know is that it will take aggro of anything in 25m radius

[forest pumice]

I know it's range is slightly longer than aggro range as well, for whatever reason

[frail merlin]

That’s longer than I thought if only it could use it

[twin igloo]

is this the mobile turrets focus crystal convo

pretty cool

thank god they're smooth brained and get close enough

frequently

[twin igloo]

I am lost for words

[frail hazel]

Understandable 😭

[wispy crypt]

This is why you read move descriptions

[frail hazel]

I know 😔

[forest pumice]

Wait you guys can read

[worthy plinth]

The wiki doesn't say whether or not engineer turrets can generate money from roll of pennies

[wintry ivy]

I've tested they can when the die you get the cash if I test correctly

Someone can fact check me on that

[worthy plinth]

Didn't get money when they died

[pale mountain]

Scammed

[wintry ivy]

OK My bad

[twin igloo]

Pretty sure it says something about it working but it adds it to the turrets money pool which of course doesn't exsist

Maybe if you think about brittle crown or something like that but I still wouldn't pick that up

Idk why I mentioned crown tbh

[worthy plinth]

I have saved up 600+ lunar coins, you can't convince me to pick up one of the less useful lunars

[frail merlin]

I like using brittle of crown

[forest pumice]

I still haven't gotten around to playing around with the new lunars yet, still waiting for the full patch

[wispy crypt]

I mean half of em suck

And ego and euly are a matter of preference

[white quarry]

is very powerful

(And it’s great on console because it is the only way to get lunars without spending coins, apart from the eulogy purchase)

[torn fossil]

eulogy + artifact of evolution

[junior geode]

scav with shaped glass and crowbar spots me and turns my internal organs into atoms, ending a 3 hour run

[eulogy zero still the goat]

[white quarry]

This will never not be relevant

[proud nymph]

[quartz bay]

absolutely fantastic

[pale mountain]

Monsters using command smh

[sharp raven]

anyone wanna do a run?

lfg dead asf

[stiff bobcat]

That is hell in one image

[frail merlin]

I’ve seen worse

[stiff bobcat]

Oh no

[paper moss]

Part 1 of stealing fun looking builds from YouTubers if anyone has suggestions as long as they aren't lunar item heavy I'm open to them

[wispy crypt]

Remote caffeinator and only and I mean ONLY squid polyps as greens

Alternatively fireworks with icbm and caffeinator if your xbox can handle that though for me the game's multiplayer already fell apart at 22 firework stacks with no icbm

Polyps are lag free so the better option

[paper moss]

I got thirty fireworks by the mithrix fight but forgot to record it 😭😭

[wispy crypt]

Anyways also the best build in the game

Empathy cores plus spare drone parts

And not one other item

Just a couple drones

Oh wait nvm mithrix takes both that wont work on console

[paper moss]

My friend forced me to get those I didn't do it willingly

[wispy crypt]

Do get more items

[oak canyon]

cant believe sotv nerfed double saw mul-t 😔

(its bc it added blind pests)

however, it also buffed it at the same time ( )

[frail merlin]

I’ve seen someone done double saw multi e8+1 loop

[twin igloo]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1109214684172791888/1153752822056243205/gif.gif

[frail merlin]

It’s not that bad you simply just don’t have to get hit

[wispy crypt]

Blood shrines and void cradles ruin it though

Now to open a cradle you not only need to pay 50% of your health but also 50% of your money as tax

[keen rampart]

Pretty sure safer spaces completely counters the hp price for cradles

[ebon gust]

Doesn't the brittle crown take away a coin for each percentage of health that is taken

So, 26% health damage = 26 coins taken away

Not 26% of coins taken

Or wait

Nvm, I'm dumb, maybe

[frail merlin]

You save the void cradle at the end of the teleporter and blood shrine you shouldn’t even do

Also in the eye of a eclipse enjoyer brittle crown is just free coins so yes I am bias and will always continue to be

[tepid vine]

Counterpoint: lunar makes game easy

[frail merlin]

Just don’t use and lunar are the spice of the run

[tepid vine]

You forgot

[vernal cloak]

why do people rage quit if you get a good item early on

I got a scope and this qp railgunner quit the game 5 seconds later

[wispy crypt]

The railgunner wanted the scope because its best on railgunner

Like as a captain I would be furious if someone took an early because I could make an insane build with that thing

Distributing items to those that make the best use of them is very important for good multiplayer runs where no one gets left behind really weak

[keen rampart]

This is why communication is so important in multiplayer, if you have no communication at all it's insufferable, but when u do communicate, even simply through pings, multiplayer is so much better.

[vernal cloak]

skill issue honestly I was using huntress

[wispy crypt]

No thats a skill issue on you

Scope is just best to give to a railgunner

[vernal cloak]

maybe if they added vc to Ror2 on switch this wouldn't be an issue

genuinely

[keen rampart]

Do they not have that???

[vernal cloak]

no lol I'm pretty sure it doesn't

[wispy crypt]

Theres enough to form some communication with those that at dont just want to take every red or smth

Knowing what is best for who is extremely important

[vernal cloak]

Last time I spam pinged an item for a random on QP they never came for it

[keen rampart]

There needs to be a more in depth pinging system, or at least the ability to chat on console

[vernal cloak]

A simple rotary menu would work wonders

[wispy crypt]

And giving 50% more damage to railgunner off the bat (assuming they hit all weakspots) is very good

[vernal cloak]

With basic messages like "come here" or "Take this!"

Doesn't even have to be that many options just 4 message options would be enough

[vernal cloak]

I'm ngl the railgunner sucked bc they didn't one tap the teleporter boss straight away

On drizzle to make it worse

[wispy crypt]

Railgunner doesnt do that...

[keen rampart]

There are 5 whole ass buttons that are just unused on console

[vernal cloak]

Dawg, I do it all the time 💀

[wispy crypt]

Maybe in singleplayer but in multiplayer youd need good items for that

And just judging a player on if they can onetap a boss or not is very dumb

Theyre your teammate not your rival

[vernal cloak]

2 player MP like 1 crowbar is enough to take it down to 25%

[wispy crypt]

And even if they're inexperienced if you just write them off as useless they wont learn

[vernal cloak]

With how mfs on QP play they may as well be my fucking enemies bruh

half the time I run into a meteorite spammer

they think they're the funniest people on the planet

[keen rampart]

It would be way easier to teach the players if you could actually communicate with players

[paper moss]

Bro is cooking up an entire 5 star meal

[wispy crypt]

That only applies to those that either turn on the 3 cheat artifacts or item goblins that will steal from you

[vernal cloak]

I tend to try n even out the items between everyone playing

[wispy crypt]

And meteorite while annoying isnt that bad for you

I mean its not like that person was running double supply beacon on captain like I do occasionally for meteorite

[vernal cloak]

Yea man I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that when its monsoon and they have 2 equipment drones spamming it

[wispy crypt]

THAT is a dangerous teammate

[wispy crypt]

How did they even get that to happen

[vernal cloak]

It's worse when it's early on, meteorite needs to be a toggle honestly

[keen rampart]

That is mfing Al Qaeda

[wispy crypt]

No not really

[vernal cloak]

I was railgunner this one time with already ass movement and this captain QPlayer gave his Meteorite to an Equipment drone

[wispy crypt]

For how rare it normally is without command its not a big issue

[wispy crypt]

Based

Free microbot

[vernal cloak]

average captain main

What the fuck do microbots do anyways

[wispy crypt]

Delete projectiles

[keen rampart]

Wtf why do you get actual terrorists in quick play LOL

[vernal cloak]

I've never touched el capitan at all

[wispy crypt]

Microbots are actually busted

Thats why a captain with many drones is quite the defensive wall

[vernal cloak]

Switch players

[keen rampart]

I find him enjoyable, but he's a got very subjective playable that not all will like

[wispy crypt]

At least you get the terrorists I only get command sacrificers if any players at all

[proper needle]

doesnt captains shotgun also have a nasty proc coefficient aswell

[vernal cloak]

god runs are fun for a little bit idk how people enjoy them so much

[proper needle]

if you hit all shots that is

[wispy crypt]

0.8 with 8 shots so combined 6

[keen rampart]

It's 0.75*8

So yeah it's pretty fucking crazy

[vernal cloak]

What's the proc on Huntress P2

With crit

[keen rampart]

Pretty sure it's just 1

[vernal cloak]

so normal?

[wispy crypt]

Most is normal

[keen rampart]

1 is the average proc coefficient

[vernal cloak]

Nice

how does that work

.75 is lower than average but it being a multi hit attack makes it busted right?

[wispy crypt]

Pretty much yes

Captain and commando are the most consistent proccers

[vernal cloak]

when it comes to applying debuff/statuses n stuff

[proper needle]

the chance of said event happening multiplied by the proc coefficient = the actual chance of it happening

[keen rampart]

Whenever I play quick play I either get literal children who just entered the world, people who have never uttered a sound in their life, but once in a blue moon I get an actual player who knows how to use a controller

[wispy crypt]

They play somewhat similar in an odd way

[proper needle]

so bandits bullets have a 0.5 proc each so each bullet would only have a 5% chance to bleed

but since he shoots 5 bullets its more like 25%

[keen rampart]

U forget that he also has 4 ammo that he can shoot incredibly fast, so he's got a pretty dam good proc chance

[proper needle]

yeah

[vernal cloak]

I rarely run into dumb people idk how y'all do it

[proper needle]

nothing matches captain speed shooting though

[vernal cloak]

me with my 200 mochas railgunner

[proper needle]

I always catch those

They make dumb decisions make me carry them and then ragequit

So I quit quickplay

You tryna play?

Its more fun and entertaining to look at a wall

Nah its rather late and I dont like duos much

[timid cedar]

Average console run

[white quarry]

Certified console classic

[timid cedar]

Regardless of all the bugs, it’s still fun to play console

Maybe I’ll get it on pc one day

[frail merlin]

At least people will stop complaining about the fire elite bug now

[wispy crypt]

Those things were avtually awful

[frail merlin]

Many learned to adapt to the bug tho, I still keep my distant to fire elites to this day

[white quarry]

Yep it’s like a built in instinct now

[timid cedar]

Speaking of fire elites

I got a fire aspect in my winning run (:

It killed things really fast

And huntress also got horns 😈

[frail merlin]

Only aspect I’ve ever managed to get is glacial a lot of glacial

[timid cedar]

I got glacial on first ever run

[frail merlin]

Lucky but also unlucky

[timid cedar]

But I used it on an equipment drone because I didn’t know what it did

I was truly a newb

[frail merlin]

I do wonder if the equipment drone did get the look of the glacial aspect

[timid cedar]

It did

It was cool looking, but not worth it

I really want aspects to be more common, they’re so cool

[frail merlin]

At least you lost the most useless aspect

Ofc

[wispy crypt]

Just lost a run because in phase 2 of mithrix one enemy fell out of the arena and survived so I couldnt get to it

The only thing that could reach there would be meteorite so ig im always taking that to mithrix from now on

[meager niche]

They should make it so everything outside the arena insta kills

[twin igloo]

This is the console of the century (I think this has a bit to do with the connection but)

My friend had died that stage and when I finally beat it after god knows how long the mending gups took to kill then he loaded in and was playing and unfortunately died, not by much but still

There were random effects and stuff going off sometimes in random places and all sorts

Trapped in eternal damination canon void fiend

[frail merlin]

Happens pretty often depending on the host pretty much a soft lock all you can do is reset the run

[worthy plinth]

I just figured out the worst thing about artifact of honor. It's not overloading dunestriders, or any boss really

It's overloading clay templars

Yes, just move left or right but they're still a pain in the ass to kill

[frail merlin]

Aren’t you supposed to go melee instead of moving left or right

[worthy plinth]

They just knock you back if you try getting in melee range

And I hate that mechanic because I lost one or two eclipse runs to fall damage because of it

[frail merlin]

Then simply go again and again until they die because they are knocking you back and not shooting you won’t get hurt

[worthy plinth]

Mfw imp overlord combined with templars so being in 1 area for too long is a seriously bad idea

Sure there's ways to get past that, but that takes time + even more time getting the tp to 99%

[frail merlin]

Ok I never said go melee when its guarded by a imp overlord only when it’s not surrounded by that kinds of enemies

[worthy plinth]

Was just adding context, not accusing you of giving bad advice, sorry about that lol

[hollow furnace]

the visual thing with the lunar teleporter is on pc too, if u angle the camera to that one spot it just does that lmao

altho im not sure what to say about the gups i think they just felt a little peaceful !!111!!!1

[regal edge]

Is it bad if I’m a sweaty Merc on Switch?

[frail merlin]

No because I’m another sweaty merc main from switch

[silver bane]

[wispy crypt]

Guys I think he knows where the stuff is at

Just an assumption though

But jesus christ this is actually so awful to look at and listen to

[long forge]

i'm thinking about only using acrid switching from engeneer/merc main

i really like acrid and his abilities

[wintry ivy]

I've had that happen with the nova from genesis loop it was atrocious

Unfortunately no damage from it just the worse parts about it

[twin igloo]

sentenced to eternal gup event

[crisp kestrel]

Hey other newish console (non switch I think they are different builds) having problems getting the activate 30 drones/turrets achievement

It feels like I have gotten way more than 30

And I’ve also heard the gesture achievement was bugged

(I’m an ex pc player it broke a year ago that’s how I know about this stuff)

[quartz mirage]

I haven’t heard of the glitch but if you use the back up equipment that will make it a lot easier especially with 1 or 2 fuel cells

[wispy crypt]

No thats a different one

I think the 30 turret achievement is specifically about turrets but Ive completed that ages ago and forgot most of it

[fossil glen]

Activated a shrine that spawned crabs. Then almost instantly got the achievement for the drowned.

[meager niche]

7th time in a row where I try to look for a game and I either disconnect or its goes into a black screen

Awesome

[crisp kestrel]

Is this recent like since the void dlc released on console

[crisp kestrel]

Also you need said achievement for it

[tiny merlin]

What aim settings y’all use?

[wispy crypt]

Normal ones without aim assist

[keen rampart]

The aim assist in this game is a genuine detriment to your experience if it is set to anything above like 3 (imo)

[tiny merlin]

I have it @ 9 ☠️

[keen rampart]

Turn that shit down bro

[tiny merlin]

Will do

[tacit forge]

i just keep it off

my aim isn't great but it feels better

[keen rampart]

Nah I'm not that good at the game to do that

[tacit forge]

console wouldn't let me be that good anyways

[keen rampart]

I might try it tho

[tacit forge]

fake ass arti fireballs

[keen rampart]

Damn bruh 😭

Those fireballs dissipated

[twin igloo]

that happens literally half the time idk what you guys are on about

[wispy crypt]

What? I havent played arti after the patch is it really that bad?

[twin igloo]

it might be better now idk

haven't played her on switch much either lmao

[wispy crypt]

It worked fine before

[twin igloo]

since the patch

[twin igloo]

nuh uh

[wispy crypt]

Ive never seen her primary be that jank

[prime sky]

plays risk of rain 2 for 20 minutes

[tacit forge]

not really an issue with big enemies, mainly just a problem with small flying enemies moving quickly enough to avoid late fireball damage

[frail merlin]

9 normal 8 vertical 9 horizontal

[quartz bay]

anything below a 8 feels way too sluggish

[dusky rivet]

It is very survivor dependant tho i have like maxed whenever im playing on merc

Usually only the vertical and horizontal i change tho

[sacred dove]

Hey everyone, i just joined, i previously asked on reddit but was told to ask in discord instead for a better answer, but wanted to ask if cross play is available between Playstation and pc as i saw in an article online that it was

[dusky rivet]

That article must have been talking about a dream

[median grotto]

Anyone on ps this morning?

Krazy_Wita_K

#lfg-playstation-ror2

[drowsy vector]

Somehow i completely missed the announcement for console DLC haha

Been waiting for that for so long and someone had to point it out

I got tired of waiting and grabbed it on PC awhile back but now i get to do all these unlocks again

[severe iris]

Have fun

Ik I did

[north hamlet]

anyone up for a game

[pale mountain]

No

[nimble ravine]

i did a dissonance run and the game had an obsession with spawning solus probed

[solar crow]

Damn dawg what's up with the mending elites on switch I hide behind a rock when the vagrant blasts and it gets fully healed 😭

The second I press the tp like 4 mending bugs are guaranteed to spawn

[frail merlin]

That’s not a switch problem

[wispy crypt]

Yeah thats just normal

Just take out the mending things first

[solar crow]

With vagrant that's alright but early game when you don't have a lot of damage and the mending bugs hide inside something like a beetle queen

[dusky rivet]

Thats very specific and its almost becoming a skill issue

[solar crow]

Least pretentious ror2 player😭

[dusky rivet]

Someone has to say it and it was me

Well if you wanna hear the solution to the problem just lure out the mending out of the beetle queen who cant even move

[solar crow]

My bad ceo of yapping

[wispy crypt]

Just kill the mending elites first with whatever aoe you have

[dusky rivet]

If you consider that yapping you are in for a ride in the future

[solar crow]

There's no point in arguing anyways I didn't say it was stopping me from sleeping at night or anything just an observation

[wispy crypt]

Well we are telling you how to avoid such problems in the future

[dusky rivet]

At least you are not the first person complaining about random problem

[wispy crypt]

Yeah thats schizo gamings primary trait here

[shut citrus]

fun fact: none none shall bind me

[frail merlin]

Gearbox in question

[vernal cloak]

question for the PS5/4 people: does the music cut out in this version of the game when too much is going on?

[quartz bay]

not on ps5 from my experience tho idk about ps4

[wispy crypt]

Idk but from my experience the game sort of "gets used" to that all so music and sound effects cut out way less after a while of playing

When I first played after the update everything cut out all the time but now it happens so rarely I often forget it was a bug in the first place

[drowsy vector]

Egocentrism on walking turrets is funny

Just needed egocentrism in my logbook

Didnt think itd work with them ha

[severe iris]

gaming

[drowsy vector]

Yea i needed lysate cell and egocentrism unlocked in logbook so engineer it was

[mossy stratus]

Only time is when the entire game lags but everything stops and gets choppy so it's not necessarily the music

[vernal cloak]

nah I meant when the game is running fine

On switch the music cuts out when too much noise is going on

thinking about just getting the game on PS5

[wide sky]

Has there been any console patches since the dlc came to it?

[quartz bay]

nope

[vernal cloak]

the game could be running at 60fps but if you're shooting too fast the music shits itself until the sound effects end

[frail merlin]

Pretty sure the laggy music is a switch only bug

[meager niche]

It can happen on Xbox if there are a lot of sound effects at the same time.

[frail merlin]

But would lowering the other sounds help cant really do that

[frail merlin]

Also 2 month since the dlc released

[upbeat ore]

How are my fellow console players doing?

[meager niche]

Fine

[wanton glen]

I had the amazing experience of having 14 bottled chaos, gesture, and 5 fuel cells

I couldn't die, activating 15 Equipment at the same time constantly does some things

[severe iris]

I love void fiend

(I’m pretty good and hope you’re doing well)

[drowsy meteor]

Im trying to play the game but it wont let me, I’ve tried to play multipler and single player but it won’t do anything. I’ve deleted the game downloaded the game deleted save data download save data closing the game and reseting my playstation but nothing has worked so far any ideas?

[coral timber]

Can you describe the issue more thoroughly

Like what happens when you try to play

[frail merlin]

Isn’t it that one glitch that happened a lot with ps and Xbox which many got at release

[twin kernel]

so when should we start the movement to beg Mr. Hopoo for ror returns?

on consoles other than switch, i mean

[frail merlin]

You can go without me

[twin kernel]

agh

[trim forum]

Has there been an update to fix the DLC bugs and performance issues on consoles yet or is Gearbox still focusing on making a F U K I N G GACHA GAME?

Nevermind. They didn't. They didn't do anything. No fix. No patch. No optimisation. Nothing.

Well, I guess console players have to play at an everage of 10 frames a second.

[meager niche]

Me right now after no longer feeling pain for waiting for a patch.

[pale mountain]

Just console business as usual

[frail merlin]

A patch and all is fine but when the hell are they gonna release silksong

[pale mountain]

That reminds me, I've been procrastinating on finishing the pantheon for like half a year now or some shit

Still need to grind absrad

[drowsy vector]

Runs fine for me riiight up until gas cans proc then the whole game freezes for a split second then it goes back to normal lol

[compact jay]

So

I played void fiend recently
And that shit is hilarious lol

Good times.
Not someone I’d play all the time but it’s def a good time
Hope to not see the character tweaked too much

[twin kernel]

don’t remind meeeee

[twin kernel]

i finally did everything in the game a few months ago after procrastinating trial of the fool and the pantheon for awhile

[shut citrus]

Imp is gone

[vale wedge]

whos on playstation trynna squad up rn

finding people who wanna play without a billion artifacts enabled on regular matchmaking is impossible

[woven pelican]

I mean you can’t make this shit up

[quartz bay]

enemies not spawning is a godsend

free red

[frail merlin]

Except you can’t get money… well shouldn’t matter it’s basically a free win with those one

[meager niche]

I believe you have that artifact that makes only one enemy spawn and if you go to the void fields the director that is in charge to choose which enemies spawn during void fields every wave that it's trying to select which enemies can spawn is trying to guess which enemy does the artifact have, so in other words, if the artifact decides to spawn only elder Lemurians the director of the void have to throw a dice and hope that it lands on elder Lemurians, if not nothing can spawn

[frail merlin]

I don’t remember that being a thing

[meager niche]

I mean, it kind of makes sense because of how that artifact works by locking one type of enemy to spawn,I may be wrong and someone on PC needs to confirm if It's how it works or not.

[wispy crypt]

I dont think thats how its supposed to work

But its a funny thing

[cinder zealot]

i think it spawns the last set of enemies only

[drowsy vector]

dumping 40x egocentrism into a cleansing pool is pretty absurd

First time ive ever seen irradiant pearls and I have 8x lol

[drowsy vector]

32x normal pearls too for 3200 HP

Really just needed that rare pearl in logbook

[solid fractal]

Uhhhh how?

[meager niche]

The longer the run, the more money you get and because of how programming works with numbers at some point you break it and become negative up to a point that becomes a really popular number between programmers/devs.

[solid fractal]

Interesting so I've just broken the money counter, thank you

[meager niche]

Yes, it's normal, it's just how it behaves the code with really high numbers.

[solid fractal]

What would happen if it flipped back to 0? Would it just be an actual reset of my money?

[meager niche]

It will go positive,like I said it's something about the code behaving with really high numbers up to a point that becomes negative and if you reduce it it comes back positive, I remember that it has a name but I don't remember the name.

[solid fractal]

Huh, Interesting. Thank you for the insight

[forest pumice]

Integer overflow

[compact jay]

2 more void items, 1 more lunar, and 2 more red and I’ll be 100% items again
Then I’ll have to go for the enemy logs- I have the environments

Which, I’ll just pick up a ton of clovers again during runs for all enemy logs-
I figure 50 is a safe bet for void boss lol

[astral mesa]

So, will we be getting the new upcoming DLC on Xbox?

Just curious.

[compact jay]

Why wouldn’t we

I mean- idk if it’ll come at the same time if that’s what you mean

[spark tide]

crazy that we got this "bug free" DLC then the game is abandoned until next DLC

classic Gearbox

[tiny merlin]

What’re you on about I thought they were working on the next DLC?

[dusky rivet]

They said we will be getting updates at the same time as pc but who knows maybe they are gonna change that

[white quarry]

Their goal is that new content is launched on all platforms simultaneously, but no guarantee

[pale mountain]

I would wait for the patch first ya know

[dusky rivet]

Surely the new dlc wouldn't introduce any new bugs

[astral mesa]

seems pretty cool in my opinion

also is it just me , or does the console version of ror2 have way more glitches? like good ones?
because i was doing simulacrum and i stacked pauls goat hoofs to go faster, and i ran up to a ledge and almost got flung off the map.

which was kinda funny in my opinion

[pale mountain]

That's normal

I don't remember any good glitches, if anything we're lacking one

[wispy crypt]

Shooting enemies through walls to insta kill them

Homemade

[frail merlin]

New console has many good glitches not enough to balance out the bad ones including the missing patch. So in my opinion compared to old console who had way more worse and not many good glitches, the double dip was pretty broken and the dlc made the game easier tho.

[white quarry]

The main good one is infestors and larva falling through the floor, but the terrain in general is soft so you can fling stuff through it

[pale mountain]

True those things are aids

[tacit forge]

everything will eventually fall through the floor

[frail merlin]

If you can avoid fall damage the bugs are only helping you

[wispy crypt]

Well

If an enemy in mithrix phase 2 falls through the arena and doesnt die youre fucked

[frail merlin]

Never has happened to me

[wispy crypt]

Some fucker clipped out of the arena and survived the fall

That 1/69420 hp bar was pretty dumb to see too

[frail merlin]

Well the enemies clipping through the floor is a thing but you can also clip through it

[wispy crypt]

No mithrix to clip me through

I even tried using diablos insane knockback to push myself through the outside border but thats the one thing that just works as intended

[frail merlin]

Maybe it has something to do with the drug cause I don’t think it’s a coincidence I clipped through the floor exactly as the drug was of

[wispy crypt]

Nah that was caused by mithrix dashing that close to you

[frail merlin]

Nuh uh I never got hit by him

[wispy crypt]

Idk how a phase 2 enemy got out without mithrix though

[wispy crypt]

Dont need to his hitbox just does some wonky stuff that pushes you down

Its similar to getting pushed through the ground by a gup jumping on you but weirder

[frail merlin]

I barely touched him

[wispy crypt]

He literally dashed right as he was as close as he could possibly be

Its rather common for his dash to push things out of the arena

[wispy crypt]

And it seems like some phase 2 enemies can spawn outside of the arena and fall down on the lower moon

[tribal rover]

So true bestie

[dusk cipher]

whats up yall

[meager niche]

Hi

[frail merlin]

👍

[twin kernel]

mithy boy falling through map

i think

[frail merlin]

Basically anything falling through the map especially the void investor saves so much time

[unique sequoia]

Any News on this front boys?

[whole apex]

Soooo

I guess we are still waiting on the next content expansion for more bug fixes?

Because the disconnecting bug is still annoying

Also still stupid how me the host can lose connection to my own game

[astral mesa]

i recently got void fiend

because railgunner is broken

no, more than broken
