i'll draw up some newer icons if i gotta for the radar to discern better between objects

[cunning hollow]

Truthest of Nukes

[errant marsh]

Radar scanner needs more new icons

[sonic tangle]

one of my mods gives every single interactable a unique icon

[rancid bear]

Nukest of truths

[tawny pilot]

like ffs please mark turrets separately

[sonic tangle]

and man its nice

[vapid dagger]

I think thats excessive but sure

[sonic tangle]

it is lmao

[rancid bear]

500 different icons NOW

[tawny pilot]

woe, 500 icons be upon ye

[rugged cipher]

I just dont use radar scanner tbh

[sonic tangle]

but being able to locate stuff so easily is great

streamlines routing a stage so much

[vapid dagger]

It is

Its an equipment i would actually recommend to newer players

[rancid bear]

I just found out earlier that items you can equip are also unlocked with challenges

[vapid dagger]

For just streamlining the process of finding the teleporter and overall quality of life during the looting process

[sonic tangle]

yeah

[vapid dagger]

You can also ditch it later for a different equipment once you’ve got a solid build set up

[sonic tangle]

sometimes i keep the radar over equipment that actually do something

[rancid bear]

blasting queen in my poor ears after chugging a mango loco monster before going for another rainstorm dive

Is this peak life experience

[tawny pilot]

i think it'd be cool to have omega finalfantasy as a survivor

[sonic tangle]

and also an underrated part of radar scanner is you get value from it even if you have a better equipment on you

[sacred elk]

Omega like omega red from xmen

[sonic tangle]

since you can just swap then use it then swap back

[blissful torrent]

value of wungus imo is that since you want to be sprinting as much as possible it's pretty much just a passive heal that's constantly active, whereas most other healing items have some sort of condition that you have to fulfil in order to actually use them

[tawny pilot]

omega like omega from final fantasy

[rancid bear]

500 soldier syringes

Shoot like a minigun

[vapid dagger]

Technically true but the same thought process applies to leeching seed and scythe arguably even moreso

[rancid bear]

I had like 17 soldier syringes on captain and I was shooting so fast I was just quick tapping R2

[sonic tangle]

to be fair those are more survivor dependent

and in the case of scythe item dependent

[blissful torrent]

i like scythe tbh i think it's underrated by a lot of people, leeching seed is just such a low healing value

[vapid dagger]

You want to be landing as many hits as possible is my point

[sonic tangle]

wungus is really consistent

[vapid dagger]

It is

[blissful torrent]

percentage-based healing is almost always gonna be better than flat healing too

[sonic tangle]

qnd the number is solid enough to cover your healing

[vapid dagger]

I just find the inability to scrap it to be a deal breaker

[valid flame]

anyone had an issue with spontaneously losing an achievment? i unlocked purified freedom a couple nights ago. Booted back up again tn for the first time and the false son is unplayable, "requires purified freedom" and i was given some random seeker achievment (literally never played her before)

[vapid dagger]

Bc its more than i often need

[sonic tangle]

thats fair

[blissful torrent]

i don't mind this because it lets me scrap every other healing item in my build

[sonic tangle]

and hey i do like scythe a lot

[cunning hollow]

but the difference is in healing, wungus is % whereas leeching and scythe are flat

[sonic tangle]

but i usually just grab wungus anyway

[vapid dagger]

Medkits do so much better for my purposes anyway

When i really need healing im going for something like medkit elixirs and monster tooth occasionally

[blissful torrent]

i only keep elixir if i have watches tbh

[sonic tangle]

if i eat a big hit i so hardly manage to claw my way back out with just medkits

[steady vector]

I don't think I've had it happen, but I know the achievement you get for unlocking artificer is just broken on console sometimes and you can NEVER unlock her because of that.

Ive had achievements not give lunar coins before

[blissful torrent]

or if my build is really bad

[valid flame]

well shit. Should i just do it again? the achievment is already on my steam account so i cant reaccomplish it

[sonic tangle]

i scrap my elixirs if i have a transmitter

[blissful torrent]

this too actually

[sonic tangle]

or if im feeling ballsy

[vapid dagger]

But generally i stack enough defenses to just get a single medkit to easily be all i need

[blissful torrent]

transmitter is just an elixir every stage

[steady vector]

Yeah probably. Idk im not actually very knowledgeable in this kinda thing, but nobody else is answering so im stalling until someone smart answers lol

[cunning hollow]

I never keep elixers lol

[sonic tangle]

opal and tougher times are my goats

[valid flame]

i mean, last resort is editing my file. would rather just avoid that

[sonic tangle]

and the green shields

[cunning hollow]

truth

[sonic tangle]

and repulsion armor plate

[blissful torrent]

i don't trust this one because mithrix can use it and oneshot you if you're playing a melee survivor

[sonic tangle]

i dont fight mithrix

[vapid dagger]

Point is the healing is worthless unless my hp is dropping far enough to make medkit shaky
And if its dropping that far id rather have stuff thats reducing damage intake or even faster acting than medkit

[sonic tangle]

woodsprite lets me scrap every healing item btw

[blissful torrent]

my logic is just that i know i make mistakes and wungus is more reliable for me than medkit

[sonic tangle]

though wungus can let me replace woodsprite with another equipment

and healing drones can replace everything else i have

because healing drones are busted

[vapid dagger]

I dont really use woodsprite often anymore

[uneven bloom]

WHAT

FATHOMLESS CAN SUMMON TWO OF THOSE???????

[sonic tangle]

yo i didnt know that

[vapid dagger]

Warhorn + woodsprite is still amazing tho

[blissful torrent]

no that's vanilla voidling trust

[sonic tangle]

yuh uh

[cunning hollow]

Fathomless pog

[blissful torrent]

i've never considered that before, that's p much permanent uptime on war horn right?

[sonic tangle]

i mean ok if i get a capacitor im taking that in exchange

[sonic tangle]

over 50% uptime with one

[vapid dagger]

Its more than 50% without cdr

[blissful torrent]

oh right woodsprite is 15s cd

in my head it was 10

[sonic tangle]

fuel cell or gesture gets it going crazy

[vapid dagger]

Which comes to about the same damage increase as atg

[blissful torrent]

so with three war horns it's permanent uptime?

[tawny pilot]

crab

kill crab

[blissful torrent]

i gotta remember that one

[vapid dagger]

But better bc its burstier and you can hold off its activation for when you really need it

[sonic tangle]

*assuming your survivor gets a notable dps increase purely off attack speed

which is common but not universal

[vapid dagger]

Nkuhanas + supermassive leech is also basically 4x damage while active

[blissful torrent]

how much is the attack speed buff on war horn?

[sonic tangle]

70% or smth

[vapid dagger]

Yeah 70%

[sonic tangle]

pretty great

[uneven bloom]

WOOOO WINSTREAK OF FOUR BABYYYY

[sonic tangle]

thats almost 5 syringes

[uneven bloom]

now time for bandit tomorrow

[cunning hollow]

noice

[woeful python]

Nice!

[woeful python]

Bandit should be an absolute breeze

[uneven bloom]

probably

[woeful python]

Genuinely bandit was probably the easiest time i had clearing eclipse 8

[uneven bloom]

i'll have to get used to full alt again

i'm doing like, two runs for each survivor

one with full default and another with full alt

[sonic tangle]

stinky bandit vs awesome bandit

[vapid dagger]

And due to the method of equipment activation being “when you decide to push the button” warhorn has better uptime than you’d probably expect bc you can pretty easily just time an equip activation with the moment you wish to engage with an enemy

[sonic tangle]

[uneven bloom]

arrow rain felt surprisingly not that bad when i was using it but against mithrix it really did feel like it did literally nothing

[sonic tangle]

arrow rain is solid except vs a few enemies

[uneven bloom]

made me decide to not go fight voidling

[vapid dagger]

Its slowing him down at least

[sonic tangle]

mostly high fliers and the speedy boys

[uneven bloom]

i guess so

i had chronobauble so like blehhh

[vapid dagger]

It still comfortably hits fliers in a lot of situations

[sonic tangle]

people who complain about arrow rain being too small just have a skill issue btw

[sonic tangle]

sometimes but not always

[vapid dagger]

Its at least 15 meters tall

[sonic tangle]

its a bit annoying
