i find funny people that get goofy over chai tea

#

or pita bread

#

the same way if I say katana, I'd imagine you understand that I am talking about a traditional shaped 1 edged sword

#

and not just saying sword in japanese

#

the same way people say chai to refer to the indian traditional tea, and not to say "tea tea"

You use your primary until you run out of ammo, secondary to reload, and defensive to immediately cancel the reload so it's instant, and your special is a solid aoe that you can augment with special and defensive upgrades

That sounds like a very generic anime title ngl, lemme look it up and see if i kmow it

doc is long

annnd this is cleanup with m1 cancelling

livid idol

So yeah it was roughly what i remembered

About equal but cleanup outputs it faster (in a single target situation anyhow which is usually what i care about)

The 1000 tech issues of subnautica 2

pulsar dew
#

h,,,

round loom
#

What dlc is the character with the bag that can catch enemies in

pulsar dew
#

do i use the hc tech engineer skin cuz it gives him kitty paws

pulsar dew
sacred elk
#

I’ve never even heard of an application hanging itself

round loom
#

Ok thanks

clear ferry
#

its kind of gross

sacred elk
#

“The application has hung itself. We apologize for the inconvenience”

#

What do you mean the application hung itself

round loom
#

How do i unlock engineer fast

sacred elk
#

Do the first stage over and over again

round loom
#

Ok

pulsar dew
#

this loadout sucks dookie butt™ i just dont wanna use the other ability

sacred elk
#

You mean the good ability operator is known for

pulsar dew
#

exactly!

#

besides all of his base abilities are better than his alt abilities

sacred elk
#

True…

clear ferry
#

i like operator

pulsar dew
#

sotv is so good looking

#

all of the dlcs are (maybe sans ac) but sotv especially

round loom
#

What dlc is operator in

pulsar dew
#

also ac

sacred elk
#

Alloyed collective

#

What is sans ac

livid idol
round loom
#

Which dlc should i buy first

sacred elk
#

Void

pulsar dew
#

what the hell

sacred elk
#

Me when I get shot dead for posting 4 images at once

pulsar dew
#

1 image is bigger than 4 images

sacred elk
#

See for yourself

livid idol
#

survivors of the void, it gives you the most bang for your buck, and almost all of the content is on the main path, which is what you'll play a lot of while unlocking stuff

pulsar dew
sacred elk
#

It won’t delete 3 but it’ll kill 4

pulsar dew
#

BNO im not gonna nayways what am i missing

round loom
#

Dlc makes the game harder?

livid idol
#

repurposed crater I think

livid idol
pulsar dew
#

and this one

livid idol
#

you get more items to have more synergies with which makes you stronger, but enemy variety can make things harder too

pulsar dew
#

sotv would make things easier ifit wasnt for THem

livid idol
#

seekers of the storm is the only one that i'd say generally makes it easier because of stage 1

round loom
#

So i should buy ac last?

pulsar dew
#

yes because its the most recently published dlc

#

you should buy all dlcs in order and preferably all at once

round loom
#

Ok

pulsar dew
#

but . thats stupid dont do that

livid idol
#

I think seekers of the storm while not bad in its current state is the weakest dlc

pulsar dew
#

whats this enemy btw

sacred elk
#

solus transporter

round loom
#

On playstation the game is almost 2 times cheaper than any dlc rn i need to wait for like summer sale or smth

sacred elk
#

the ones that do the explosion that pulls you in

clear ferry
sacred elk
#

no its an ac enemy

pulsar dew
#

am i missing anything from sotv

sacred elk
#

its the only ac enemy that doesnt get spammed every 3 seconds

pulsar dew
#

because if i can turn a dlc off to not need to loop nearly as much

sonic tangle
#

extractors

pulsar dew
#

its unlock run time

sacred elk
#

those mfs still spawn every 6 seconds

#

why am i a cow getting abducted

pulsar dew
#

also im using engineer so having the extra sentry is totally useful enough

clear ferry
#

still dont have sots and ac unlocks

pulsar dew
#

heres what i ended up with

clear ferry
#

a few of them

pulsar dew
#

im gonna spam the fuck outta clovers

#

no swarm cuz im not a pussy

clear ferry
#

i see

spare bobcat
#

You say that, yet I see command

clear ferry
#

is that projection?

pulsar dew
#

but im not a pussy about it

#

im only a loser about it

#

i dont need to further "optimize" by adding swarms

iron palm
#

"do the halcyon shrine every time its so worth it"
spends 4 minutes charging it
gets a leeching seed a bison steak and a topaz brooch

#

yep, so worth it

sonic tangle
#

4 minutes what happened happiesttroll

iron palm
#

i understand wanting to gamble heavily on the first stage since you dont really lose much if you end up low rolling on a huge gamble on stage 1 but yeah

#

if it ends up giving you jack shit youre better off restarting lmao

sonic tangle
#

it doesnt take 4 minutes it can take as little as 2

pulsar dew
#

btw uh

sonic tangle
#

actually no as little as 1

pulsar dew
#

what item should i give to my artifact of rebirth after im done with this run

vital escarp
#

clover

pulsar dew
#

okay but thats like

sonic tangle
#

halcyon shrines take 1 minute to charge if you have all the money

pulsar dew
#

Worthless .

sonic tangle
#

depending on how you loot you might have all the money

vapid dagger
#

It takes an average of like 3 minutes to get 300 moneys on stage 1

#

Longer for eclipse

sonic tangle
#

depending on where its located i can usually weave the halcyon shrine into my looting and do 7 minutes no problem

vapid dagger
#

I remember omega did some testing earlier out of curiosity and i think thats kind of the average he came to

iron palm
#

you would think it would be the same overall since 1.25x0.8=1

vapid dagger
#

Well due to the way eclipse rounds prespawn beetle money down

#

I think it comes out a bit lower

#

And eclipse 6 is just straight up -20% money from enemies too

cedar coral
#

guh

sonic tangle

#

Wee

#

if a log drops but i dotn pick it up

#

can it drop on a different stage from the same enemy

sacred elk
vast tinsel
#

you're cooked

pulsar dew
#

should i lowk kms

vast tinsel
#

no

pulsar dew
#

should i HIGHk kms

vast tinsel
#

no

pulsar dew
#

should i midkey kms

vast tinsel
#

no

pulsar dew
#

what about middlekey

#

it should mean the same thing as midkey but because of evolving language mid and middle have taken on a new meaning

cedar coral
#

I have to memorise sundered grove legendary spawns next time I play the game

#

im not wasting another 10 minutes searching

vast cypress
#

the final prismatic trial boss is hell as merc 😭

sonic tangle
#

and glowing mushrooms where it is

cedar coral
#

also remind me not to pick up shaped glass on merc

#

maybe i was just being an idiot here asking too long to decide what item

#

but jesus christ man

sonic tangle
#

the answer is atg

cedar coral
#

I was gonna pick chrono cos death mark

#

but then theres regenerating scrap for commencement cauldrons

sonic tangle
#

atg happiesttroll

cedar coral
#

and then atg is just a good item

sonic tangle
#

yeah that death was on you

cedar coral
#

sighh

fresh scarab
#

I think the enemies should’ve been dealt with beforehand

#

swing by the tri shop, see what’s inside, and keep moving, considering later what you want to grab

cedar coral
fresh scarab
#

hell, maybe even wait to full loot all chests and chance shrines before making an informed decision

#

or a chance at a card to just get all three and eliminate the choice

pure axle
harsh crater
#

I wonder why golems have skeletons, i mean what is even the purpose of it, as far as i can see they have the ability to slightly separate their limbs and put it in segments

pulsar dew
#

okay but i have less to live for

#

i need to do a SECOND unlock run after this one

pure axle
pulsar dew
#

fucking hate solus bullshitters

#

these assholes

cedar coral
#

why did I get so unlucky with this prismatic trial

pulsar dew
#

making me do a whole new run to unlock their logbook just so i can never read it

thorn geyser
#

guys just unlocked this skin do u think it is the hardest skin to get in the new dlc i am currently trying to get all the skin from the dlc alloyed collective

pulsar dew
#

the easiest one lol

fresh scarab
pulsar dew
#

id say the hardest is loader maybe? maybe captain maybe rex

thorn geyser
pulsar dew
#

acrid is arguably easier

pulsar dew
thorn geyser
#

default

pulsar dew
#

yeah thats your issue

#

go unlock desperado

sharp skiff
#

What's the name of the item you get from the pre-final dlc boss ?

pulsar dew
#

and also blast, blast is usually worse but its very good against solus heart

thorn geyser
pulsar dew
#

well sotp being masochistic ‼️

sonic tangle
thorn geyser
#

lol i just forgot about that

sonic tangle
pulsar dew
#

i dont care how based it is

thorn geyser
#

one of the most beautiful skin in migh opion

pulsar dew
#

bandit cooldowns are short as hell as is

pulsar dew
sonic tangle
#

nah lights out is a competitive choice

pulsar dew
#

all of the "accept" skins are beautiful

fresh scarab
sonic tangle
#

its better than desperado in rush runs

cedar coral
#

fym iron auroras i dont even have the dlc

thorn geyser
#

what is the difference between desperado and light out

cedar coral
#

ughh

thorn geyser
#

never checked the description

sonic tangle
#

read them !

sharp skiff
fresh scarab
#

they’re both functionally exactly the same, except:

  • Light’s Out resets cooldowns on kill
  • Desperado adds 10% damage to itself on kill
fresh scarab
pulsar dew
#

oh and desperado has slayer

fresh scarab
#

the Slayer effect is also very strong

sonic tangle
#

important to note that lights out resets cooldowns and also all charges

pulsar dew
#

lights out? also has slayer

sonic tangle
#

and desperado resets its damage boost when progressing stages

thorn geyser
#

i really light out because u can littery fly if u spam smoke bomb and light out

sonic tangle
#

its fun

#

i find lights out ten times more fun than desperado

fresh scarab
#

Slayer increases the damage of the attack by 2% for every 1% health the enemy is missing

thorn geyser
sonic tangle
#

and not that much worse

#

but generally speaking

fresh scarab
#

so an hitting an enemy at half hp with an ability that has Slayer will do double damage

sonic tangle
#

desperado is better for regular pace runs

#

lights out is better for rush runs

#

which are difficult

fresh scarab
#

it’s important to note that items that proc off abilities that have Slayer will not receive this damage bonus and will act as if Slayer does not exist

cedar coral
#

FYM BLAZING VOID JAILER

#

OH MY FUCKING GOD

thorn geyser
sonic tangle
#

items that proc off lights out or desperado also wont grant the on kill effect if they land the kill except brilliant behemoth

vast cypress
#

NO DUDE

sonic tangle
vast cypress
#

FRICK I DIED RIGHT AS I WAS ABOUT TO GET THE MERC PRESMATIC TRIAL ACHIEVMENT

sonic tangle
#

and having like a 5 minute or less time per stage

pulsar dew
#

well at least you got that far

pulsar dew
sonic tangle
#

lmaoo

pulsar dew
#

i have 450 hours and i just go for 1 item a minute

sonic tangle
#

i call it the 5 minute challenge because its a challenge

thorn geyser
#

i can only do like 2 loop with my pc

sonic tangle
#

loops dont rly matter

sonic tangle
#

what matters between a standard and rush run is time taken per stage

vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

my pc can handle basically anything ROR2 throws at me…

except Deus Ex + Electric Boomerang with any on hit projectile item

vast cypress
#

except for the final teleporter

sonic tangle
#

though a long run deep into a loop usually prefers desperado

thorn geyser
sonic tangle
thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

yo

fresh scarab
cedar coral
#

did it really have to be glass

fresh scarab
#

usually that’ll kill in 1-2 shots

vast cypress
sonic tangle
cedar coral
#

along with void jailer

sonic tangle
#

its nearly a non factor

fresh scarab
#

Light’s Out is just a more engaging ability for me

sonic tangle
#

yuh uh

fresh scarab
sonic tangle
#

one of my favorite skills in the game by far

sonic tangle
pulsar dew
#

yes i know its mods

sonic tangle
#

meanwhile me with my serrated dagger

pulsar dew
#

shiv is better

sonic tangle
#

i prefer dagger

pulsar dew
#

thats fair

fresh scarab
#

I’ve got a lot of mods but I’ve made it a point to keep core gameplay mostly unchanged

sonic tangle
#

same

thorn geyser
#

what is really good with bandit is that u can escape fall dammage and use dagger

pulsar dew
#

i think dagger is better for looping

#

which you shouldnt really do as bandit

fresh scarab
#

the biggest changes to gameplay I have is Quality and ScorchWormTweaks

sonic tangle
#

the only mod i have that isnt qol or a survivor mod is fathomless voidling

vast cypress
#

i lost another damageless prismatic trial run

sonic tangle
#

quality was too non vanilla for me

fresh scarab
#

also Umbral

sonic tangle
#

i should try umbral

thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

this merc prismatic trial challenge is going to make me fucking insane

fresh scarab
#

I reached a point in playing the game where, once I got to Mithrix, I knew I would always win and it was never a challenge

#

so I upgraded to Umbral and I’m glad I did valid

thorn geyser
#

should i try Starstorm2 mod

vast cypress
sonic tangle
#

its quite different form the base game i think you should play more of the base game first

vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

SS2 is awesome but I don’t like the in run content as much as the survivors

thorn geyser
fresh scarab
#

they’re definitely the highlight of it for me

sonic tangle
#

i wanna be able to play the survivors without the rest of the content happiesttroll

vast cypress
sonic tangle
#

but id have to unlock the survivors

thorn geyser
fresh scarab
vast cypress
sonic tangle
vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

Executioner

vast cypress
#

wait dont tell me that there is more than 2

sonic tangle
thorn geyser
#

any tips for unlocking rex the only survivor i dont have

fresh scarab
#

currently there are 4 in the main mod, but in the beta there are…
more

sonic tangle
#

you can swap fuel array out for another equipment during a stage

vast cypress
sonic tangle
#

just remmeber to pick it back up again

vast cypress
cedar coral
vast cypress
thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

we got a horde of many void barnacle and a blazing void jailer

sonic tangle
#

glass is a death sentence for new players

cedar coral
#

alongside glass

vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

I personally dislike pushing the difficulty of the game to unreasonable extremes

cedar coral
vast cypress
#

there are 3 crytsals you'll find on your way to your teleporter which is just enough

sonic tangle
vast cypress
#

destroy them then run for your life

fresh scarab
#

I know there are plenty of people who seemingly enjoy it, but it’s not for me

cedar coral
#

I thought you only destroyed the time crystals so you could start the teleporter

thorn geyser
#

guys how much time took u for 100% the game

cedar coral
#

wdym you dont have to fight them

#

is it the same with the jailer on the second stage

sonic tangle
vast cypress
fresh scarab
cedar coral
fresh scarab
#

on top of many added modifiers

fresh scarab
#

was it Armageddon?

vast cypress
cedar coral
sonic tangle
fresh scarab
#

that’s obviously on the extreme end

sonic tangle
#

wdyt of e8 then

thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

I have 200 hours and Im not going to bother getting all survivor achievements

sonic tangle
#

i dont play e8 because im more casual and just like monsoon how it is

sage python
#

is that a question for koda or for in general?

cedar coral
#

damn

sonic tangle
vast cypress
#

without getting hit

thorn geyser
vast cypress
thorn geyser
#

good luck 🍀

cedar coral
#

ive been trying with safer spaces and topaz brooch

fresh scarab
#

Eclipse is obviously flawed, but for a vanilla system, I think the meaningful modifiers gradually acclimate you into playing better

cedar coral
#

but glass makes it harder to get the value out of brooch

thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

yh

vast cypress
cedar coral
sonic tangle
#

eclipse is fun on occasion

vast cypress
#

you just need to find the right time

cedar coral
#

so I could kill loads of enemies for loads of barrier

fresh scarab
#

I haven’t tried the beta for it yet, but the storms system for SS2 is an interesting mechanic where you get a random temporary difficulty spike mid run

sonic tangle
#

sounds fun

fresh scarab
#

I don’t like how it’s executed in regular SS2 however

vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

where it’s just a movement speed check

thorn geyser
cedar coral
#

gn bro

vast cypress
vast cypress
#

uh yes its possibly the worse boss they couldve chosen

cedar coral
#

like oh my god bro

vast cypress
#

id rather fight mithrix there dude

cedar coral
#

SAME

vast cypress
#

perfected mithrix too

cedar coral
#

I can 100% no hit mithrix with glass

fresh scarab
#

that’s because it’s easier to keep track of one enemy than a dozen or so

vast cypress
#

i literally beat the final boss then died to the stupid stone giants

vast cypress
#

but you do have like 4 different snipers trying to kill you so

sonic tangle
#

void jailer may be the hardest non champion enemy yeah

fresh scarab
#

so there’s 5 main enemies
to keep track of

sonic tangle
#

i havent been killed by one just because theyre so rare

cedar coral
#

those things are FODDER

cedar coral
vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

I don’t think void jailers are difficult enemies
I think their root attack is dangerous
staying still is bad

cedar coral
#

fair

sonic tangle
cedar coral
#

theyre not difficult if youre not using glass

vast cypress
cedar coral
fresh scarab
fresh scarab
#

what I recommend you do is watch Cabbage’s video

vast cypress
#

i did

#

and i did the same but died right as i was about to get teleported

fresh scarab
#

that means you’ve nearly got it down

vast cypress
#

its just the second teleporter that sucks

fresh scarab
#

and you’re almost there

vast cypress
#

im trying to get the hang of it yea but its really not easy

cedar coral
#

ive had so many stupid deaths now

vast cypress
fresh scarab
#

when I did my Ethereal I got quite lucky

#

there was a E_Tricorn spawn on the first stage for me to use on the second boss

cedar coral
vast cypress
cedar coral
#

best you get for this one is gorags opus

vast cypress
pulsar dew
#

hey so uh

fresh scarab
#

bummer

cedar coral
#

so ass

pulsar dew
#

give me stupid survivor tier lists to make im bored !

cedar coral
#

hm

fresh scarab
cedar coral
#

do one on each survivors sexual preferences

fresh scarab
#

no you would start a war

cedar coral
#

drifter is lesbian

vast cypress
#

ok wish me luck ill start with the second teleporter

pulsar dew
#

before i start this list

cedar coral
pulsar dew
#

hell i think i did it before

cedar coral
#

really lol

fresh scarab
#

let me see if I can find the one we did before

vast cypress
#

NOO I DIED AFTER KILLING THE BOSS

cedar coral
#

HOW 😭

vast cypress
#

stone golems stink

cedar coral
#

ah

vast cypress
#

they snipe you after killing their boss

cedar coral
#

wait what

#

wdym

sage python
# sonic tangle you can asnwer if you want

its cool that its there and does its job well for the most part, but i dont enjoy the strategies it pushes and some of the modifiers, like e1 especially, feel arbitrary

vast cypress
cedar coral
#

cant you just use the teleporter

sage python
#

i see why people like ot, but i dont really see it as the answer to wanting an extra difficulty cause the means the extra difficulty is applied is so different to the steps between the main mode diffs

vast cypress
#

they're super fast and there is still a blackhole after you

vast cypress
cedar coral
vast cypress
#

which is why i died

sonic tangle
#

the more i think about it the more i feel its the worst modifier

#

i can understand every other one

sage python
#

i dont even see the vision behind it

sonic tangle
#

e1 is nonsensical

sage python
#

what is it meant to do

vast cypress
pulsar dew
#

im debating on a few of these

sonic tangle
#

if it was something like 'non player specific allies -100% healing' thatd be one thing

cedar coral
vast cypress
#

arti should see this one

cedar coral
#

commando is STRAIGHTTT

sage python
#

i think eclipse is pretty bad on paper but in practise it offers something cool

cedar coral
#

also what does objectum mean

vast cypress
pulsar dew
cedar coral
#

I think seeker is aroace also

#

that means youre not attracted to anyone right

pulsar dew
#

not sexually or romantically attracted

cedar coral
#

yeah seeker is def aroace imo

pulsar dew
#

well you see

#

hydroflix linked proof otherwise

#

im mostly joking besides this is my Take on things

vast cypress
#

uh so the game displayed that i took fall damage but i didnt lose any health

vast cypress
sage python
pulsar dew
sage python
#

true

cedar coral
#

what does objectum mean btw

vast cypress
#

died right as i was about to finish the boss

pulsar dew
#

i could go more specific probably

vast cypress
#

what song should i put on 👀

pulsar dew
fresh scarab
#

this is what we had settled on about 7 months ago

pulsar dew
#

drifter im debating on operator i am not

cedar coral
pulsar dew
pulsar dew
cedar coral
#

yup

pulsar dew

yeah ill think about that a bit

sage python

how do people even headcanon sexuality like that? /gen

pulsar dew
cedar coral
#

going off looks and lore

pulsar dew
#

i want to relate to them . becasue i am autistic .

vast cypress
#

gah i got damaged a bit agyer the boss started

pulsar dew
#

merc though? hes reddit katana guy except for the fact that he kills high ranking officials

cedar coral

fresh scarab

Captain is either with girilfailure Arti or mega gay gay homo gay homo homo gay

#

pathetic

fresh scarab
pulsar dew
#

and also a girl

cedar coral
#

never heard of it

sage python
pulsar dew
sage python
#

that makes sense

#

thank you and me too

pulsar dew
#

hell yeah

sage python
#

i just want everyone to be in cool sci fi armour and not to have a focus on character so i can relate

fresh scarab
#

I just remembered I had this in the back of a folder

vast cypress
#

oh my god i keep dying at that final boss

cedar coral
sage python
#

risk of rain is a goldmine for that, thank you hopoo

vast cypress
fresh scarab
cedar coral
#

agree

cedar coral
vast cypress
#

or kill him before he does it

cedar coral
#

what if specials down

fresh scarab
vast cypress
cedar coral
#

I want to know how to dodge it in case im not on merc

cedar coral
pulsar dew
fresh scarab
#

Arti definitely forces Commando to put on cat ears

pulsar dew
#

and one of them reaps the rewards . idk who tho

#

as in one of the others

#

would viend x commando be selfcest

vast cypress
#

I DID IT

fresh scarab
#

no

vast cypress
#

OH MY GOD FINALLY

#

ive never been more satisfied for seeing an achievement

fresh scarab
#

Commando is a title, not a person, in fact all of the survivor names are titles

sage python
#

except rex and acrid

sonic tangle
#

almost

fresh scarab
#

REX is a nickname

#

it’s a shortened version of it’s serial number

sage python
#

yah

fresh scarab
#

rex0ch12d66m and then some more characters

#

we don’t get the full thing

vast cypress
#

oh my god ok this was totally worth it

vast cypress
#

john isnt a title

sonic tangle
#

is operator a job title or is there only one

terse ferry
#

hello rorcordians

sage python
#

operator is a job title

sonic tangle
#

like a droneman job

sage python
#

hi goobessa !!!!

sonic tangle
#

just that our operator is cool because he has cybernetics

fresh scarab
#

it can be assumed that there are multiple Operators

sage python
#

drones are for usage on ships, they werent cargo

#

except maybe tc 280

#

idk if this is fully true after ac actually, lemme check the logs

fresh scarab
#

TC280 is very clearly a military grade drone

vast cypress
#

ok that merc achievement was totally worth it

#

wait i think that ive 100% the main game

sage python
#

ok yeah it seems they may not all be ues now

fresh scarab
sage python
#

gunner drones were security on the cl at least

terse ferry
#

the viscerate

vast cypress
#

wait is there an achievement for beating the game as the secret character thing

fresh scarab
#

no

vast cypress
#

i forgot their name

fresh scarab
#

Heretic

terse ferry
#

theretic

vast cypress
#

alr good that means that i 100% the game

sage python
#

idk how stuff like beam and freeze drones would fit though, so i assume they werent active on the ship

#

im glad ac didnt just bring back beam drone

terse ferry
#

maybe beam drones were cargo and they're like common construction/deconstruction equipment

vast cypress
#

the most damage ive ever done is 5 quadrillion WHAT

terse ferry
#

evil and intimidating proc chain

vast cypress
#

im betting that it was done with c aptain but how

vast cypress
#

oh nvm the 5 quadrillion comes from loader somehow

sage python
#

kinda funny that there are 4 types of heal drone now

vast cypress
#

was i traveling at the speed of light or something how did i do that

sage python
#

tho i guess theres a lot of weaponry ones

terse ferry
sage python
#

heal, emergency, medical and barrier

terse ferry
#

wtf is medical drone

sage python
#

rorr

terse ferry
#

i do not remember encountering that

sage python
terse ferry
#

intriguing

sage python
#

here are the rest of the tier 2 drones

#

why is tier 2 flamethrower gif so large lol

#

medical drone and attack drone are the only naturally occurring ones

fresh scarab
#

wouldn’t you like to know

#

I like the redesigned drones in 2

#

they’re more distinct

#

it’s completely ridiculous that they’re propeller powered but it adds to the charm

sage python
#

i dont think they redesigned any ?

fresh scarab
#

I meant the differences in designs between games

sage python
#

i guess they gave heal drones the green colouration

sage python
#

i guess medical drone got replaced by emergency

fresh scarab
#

every time I think about 1/Returns I always think about how badly Laser Turbine translated over to 3D

#

man, Resonance Disc just doesn’t work

pearl summit
fresh scarab
#

Commando bell curve is real

#

new player “this guy is pretty cool”
learning player “wow this guy is terrible, easily the worst survivor in the game”
experienced player “this guy is pretty cool”

austere prism
austere prism
#

every time we play they say just how much they love commando

sage python
#

phase round best skill evah

austere prism
#

and how commando has his own tier above everyone else

pearl summit
fresh scarab
#

Command is just a silly little guy doing his own thing

#

and he works hard!

austere prism
#

shoot enemy

#

shoot enemy but blue raspberry flavored

#

dodge enemy shoot

#

shoot fast

fresh scarab
#

shoot a bunch*

austere prism
#

shoot many

fresh scarab
#

shoot many

austere prism
#

shoot everything

sage python
#

shoot stun*

austere prism
#

shoot many fast stun

sage python
#

its the same firerate

#

its more accurate tho

fresh scarab
#

I do wish Suppressive Fire had even close to the sauce it has in Returns

sage python
#

also allows resprints

austere prism
#

same firerate just feels faster

pearl summit
#

It makes halcyonite not so painful to fight

#

Which is lit

fresh scarab
#

I personally object to both specials as I instead opt for

POINT BLANK

#

which is objectively a dumb and overtuned ability but man do I love it

austere prism
wet marsh
#

hai guys :3

fresh scarab
#

“what if we locked Phase Blast to even closer range”

pearl summit
#

Wait what

pearl summit
fresh scarab
#

if the hitbox of Suppressive Fire was a cone I would love it so much

sage python
#

i kinda wish rorr mando got an alt primary instead of slide

wet marsh
#

whats suppressive fire TwT

sage python
#

commando default special

wet marsh
#

yes i larp ror2 guys how could you tell

fresh scarab
#

Commando’s Special

wet marsh
#

ohhhh so not grenade

#

yeah grenade is better and all but i cant help but still be fond of the simplicity of supp fire

#

not like it matters anyways essence of heresy >>>

sage python
#

id say they are pretty equal

fresh scarab
#

Suppressive Fire is probably the second best stunning move

wet marsh
#

"but he cant proc bands effectively!" just... dont build towards bands?

sonic tangle
fresh scarab
#

technically it’s probably the best but functionally I count shocking as well

sonic tangle
#

the point is if you happen to get bands now you have something to make sure they arent useless

wet marsh
#

i was gonna say scrappers and all exist but theyre not guaranteed for every run

sage python
#

phase round

wet marsh
#

you could still go all in on atg/soup reds

fresh scarab
#

Phase Round only procs bands on second enemy hit

sage python
#

well yeah

sonic tangle
#

i run phase blast suppressive fire and i dont mind getting bands because items like shuri and atg exist

fresh scarab
#

true

wet marsh
#

still run all alternate but it could be a good idea to go for default everything again (EXCEPT ROLL)

#

i'd rather slide

fresh scarab
#

roll used to have cool stuff but I think AC removed a lot of it’s tech

sage python
#

yeah

fresh scarab
#

so Slide is the move

sage python
#

the skill just doesnt work

pearl summit
#

It's wild how shit that ability is

fresh scarab
#

roll doesn’t even have iframes :(

pearl summit
#

What were they thinking making that

sage python
#

roll was fine

fresh scarab
#

roll was niche but mostly worse than slide

wet marsh
pearl summit
#

It's just there to make you want to unlock its alt

sage python
#

skills 2.0 added a largely better alt and sots broke every advantage roll had

fresh scarab
#

I wish they carved out its niche of being good at dodging instead of raw mobility like slide

restive pawn
#

Gulp

wet marsh
fresh scarab
#

roll had a lot of flexibility with verticality

sage python
sage python
#

oh and horizontal movement mid air

#

sots broke every single one of them and its had no usecases since

fresh scarab
#

except it’s not
it just sucks :(

sage python
#

i wont pretend it was great before

#

but it at least had something

wet marsh
#

poor commando 3:

sage python
#

i hope they fix it soon, its been over a year

wet marsh
#

hasnt it been addressed multiple times by then?

#

surely itll get fixed

fresh scarab
#

probably not

pearl summit
#

I feel like they're not gonna touch anything to do with old content

sage python
wet marsh
#

thank you gearbox 🙏🙏🙏

pearl summit
#

They released AC and False Son is still the way he is

fresh scarab
#

the only old pieces of content they’ve touched are Vields and barrier

#

besides bug fixes

sage python
#

drones, lunar coins and artificer primaries also

pearl summit
#

What did they do with lunar coins?

fresh scarab
#

what did they change about lunar coins again

sage python
#

and blind pests

sage python
wet marsh
#

thats a decent change tbh

sage python
#

its minor but its a thing

pearl summit
#

I didn't know that wasn't a thing before

wet marsh
#

incentivises hunting achievements to get more coins

sage python
pearl summit
#

Huh

fresh scarab
#

the lunar system isn’t very good anyways

sage python
#

it kinda makes artificer always unlockable from the first bazaar visit

wet marsh
#

i try to avoid lunars tbh

fresh scarab
#

specifically the lunar shop in the bazaar

terse ferry
sage python
#

i liked that you usually had to discover arti then go back for her

fresh scarab
#

if you could only get lunars from pods it would be a lot better

sage python
#

apart from that its cool ig

fresh scarab
#

still bad, but a lot better

sage python
#

not that 10 coins was ever hard tbf lol

wet marsh
#

without the bazaar you wouldnt necessarily be able to unlock heretic right

#

if it was just restricted to lunar pods

wet marsh
#

is heretic bad game design?

fresh scarab
#

lunar pod drops would need to be increased otherwise it wouldn’t be possible

#

Heretic is a top 3 survivor

#

like, Seeker and False Son tier

pearl summit
#

I've just realized I have well over 2k hours and I have never played Heretic

wet marsh
#

i played heretic twice shes so fun

sage python
#

so yeah, they have changed barrier, void fields, void fog, drones, lunar coins, artificer primaries and blind pests

pearl summit
#

Actually maybe one time like 2 years ago I have no idea

terse ferry
#

Idk how people enjoy heretic tbh her kit is so m1 sim
The m2 is interesting but has fucked up charging conversion

sage python
#

i like heretic, shes just too strong

fresh scarab
#

the M2 needs an indicator on it

#

stg people will like it more with just that

sage python
#

skill cycle survivors are cool

wet marsh
#

being able to manage her healthpool and such is what makes her fun in my eyes

sage python
#

i like em simple

terse ferry
wet marsh
#

plus m2 is surprisingly unique to a degree

sage python
#

i find is pretty intuitive personally

terse ferry
sage python
#

there is aint there?

#

it decelerates slowly

terse ferry
#

Shrug
I've used hooks like actually twice since it's so weird to use

sage python
#

i recommend giving it another shot, its fun once you get it down

terse ferry
#

And one of those times I just teleported to bazaar and tried to get used to it 😭

sage python
#

oh

#

you can bounce it off terrain, thats cool

fresh scarab
#

Heretic has:

  • the highest damage stat of any survivor
  • the most health of any survivor
  • the most base mobility of any survivor (1m/s extra speed and 3 jumps)
  • a decent M1 that synergizes incredibly well with her Special (which is one of the most powerful abilities in the game)
  • Viend’s utility but even better

all at the cost of having negative health regen which gets negated by 2 C_Cautious_Slug and her Utility
incredible

sage python
#

its not really anything like viend util

fresh scarab
#

does Shadowfade cleanse I forget

sage python
#

L_EssenceOfHeresy + noxious thorns is stupid good

sage python
fresh scarab
#

V_Lysate_Cell is also very useful, as it allows you to practically apply Ruin stacks 100% of the time

#

even after Ruin is used

sage python
#

strides is my least fav heresy item so i dont use it much

fresh scarab
#

most survivor utilities are too integral to switch out for Shadowfade

#

maybe MUL-T?

wet marsh
#

strides of heresy is shift right?

sage python
#

i still prefer transport

#

it does beeg damage and shadowfade doesnt provide much for them

wet marsh
#

yeah that one is really good on pretty much anyone who doesnt rely on their utility for damage

fresh scarab
#

Transport Mode does let you proc bands on bigger enemies

round sandal
#

I… am the meower…

wet marsh
#

meow

round sandal
#

Meowwwww

fresh scarab
#

a respectable band proc too

sage python
#

chat, the meower is here !!!

wet marsh
#

meow meow

round sandal
sage python
#

i cant think of a survivor id pick it up on

#

cute !!!!

wet marsh
round sandal
#

Actually let me recrop tht

#

That

fresh scarab
#

Orbitals are still pretty good

terse ferry
sage python
#

orbital probes are very strong

terse ferry
#

It's also a 3000% burst which is like

wet marsh
#

uhhhh...

#

im trying to think of characters i'd use strides on

sage python
#

its pretty comparable to ballista

fresh scarab
#

wait wouldn’t Viend actually be really good with Strides

round sandal
#

NOW look at the silly

fresh scarab
#

doesn’t he still get corrupted Trespass

terse ferry
#

As long as you're not deliberately using their worse utility (i.e. commando roll) I feel like no survivors really want strides

sage python
#

cute !!!

round sandal
#

Laying like she pays the rent

#

(I don’t pay rent)

sage python
wet marsh
sage python
#

shadowfade is sluggish and trespass allows you to charge secondary

#

i guess the healing could be good maybe

fresh scarab
#

this is true

round sandal
#

Lowk meows

terse ferry
sage python
#

but using it evasively would set you back in corruption

sage python
round sandal
#

Was that tuff

sage python
#

yes bestie

round sandal
#

Thanks bestie

fresh scarab
#

the healing from Suppress is a decent bit stronger than Shadowfade as well

wet marsh
#

rex?

fresh scarab
#

25% vs ~18%

wet marsh
#

his push doesnt seem too effective so why wouldnt you pick the better movement option

terse ferry
# wet marsh rex?

Util is good burst movement and if you're running alt free healing

sage python
#

alt util provides better heals and mobility id say

#

ig being intangible is cool but shadowfade just feels so slow

fresh scarab
#

that’s because Shadowfade is just regular movement speed

sage python
#

yea

fresh scarab
#

except you can also walk in midair

terse ferry
#

Rex's util is a "get the fuck away from me" tool that also heals you and knocks both targets back and has the option to not knock yourself back while shadowfade is just "I'm gonna disappear for a bit"

sage python
#

i think we found the worst util

wet marsh
#

real?

terse ferry
fresh scarab
#

we found the worst of the GOOD utilities

#

looking at you
Polar Field Device

round sandal
#

I LOVE peanut butter

wet marsh
#

i kinda wanna say chef utilities but i know thatll just make me sound horrendously stupid TwT

#

the fact that you cant control his default well enough pains me

fresh scarab
#

Oil Spill is good by technicality ONLY

terse ferry
sage python
#

id keep still keep roll and polar field device over shadowfade, but maybe thats just a me thing

fresh scarab
#

and Roll is really good until it kills you but that’s fine

sage python
fresh scarab
#

Roll went from default mobility to way too fast in a single update

wet marsh
sage python
#

they turned a pretty alright combat mobility skill into a skill that makes it difficult to engage in combat

fresh scarab
#

to the point where you can die from fall damage without leaving the ground

wet marsh
#

mercs m2 isnt bad because you can reasonably control it

sage python
#

chef roll was an omen for faraday spurs

terse ferry
wet marsh
#

when roll goes off for like a good 3s it feels bad to control

fresh scarab
#

Roll can never be fully charged or else you’ll go all over the place

#

you always gotta charge 1 or 2 tiers

wet marsh
#

when do you charge 3?

sage python
#

i liked old roll more, they shouldve just given it slight speed proportional to charge time i think

fresh scarab
wet marsh
fresh scarab
#

no obstacles anywhere near you

terse ferry
fresh scarab
#

Roll is by far the most free pillar skip in the game

sage python
#

i wish i liked oil spill

wet marsh
#

okay noted

fresh scarab
#

with the exception of like E_Eccentric_Vase

mild cloak
#

Oh I see

wet marsh
#

cuz the 2 times i played chef i just hurled myself with 3 charges everywhere and he didnt feel good to play

mild cloak
#

Sorry for trying ??

sage python
#

you just look at the arena and press the button

fresh scarab
#

Seeker gets to do everything so that’s kind of normal

#

we expect that from her

mild cloak
#

wtf did I do to be unable to uninstall arknights

sage python
#

blame google

wet marsh
mild cloak
#

It keeps saying the game isn't launching

wet marsh
#

oh corrupted files?

mild cloak
fresh scarab
#

oil in general just isn’t very good to play around, so one of the key features of Oil Spill is just kinda lame

mild cloak
#

I actually checked

sage python
#

i like glaze

fresh scarab
#

and so you’re left with a really odd mobility skill that makes CHEF harder to play

mild cloak
#

The shortcut is on my desktop but there isn't a single arknights file on my pc

fresh scarab
#

Oil Spill does not

mild cloak
#

Searching for a game that doesn't exist

sage python
#

giving a pierce character stupid verticality on both utils was certainly a choice

mild cloak
#

I'm gonna restart my pc

wet marsh
sage python
#

chef lacks flow and thats a shame given they are a combo character

wet marsh
#

one thing i noticed with chef is that luminous shot goes surprisingly hard on him

fresh scarab
#

Glaze isn’t a bad ability because it uses oil
Glaze is the worse ability because Yes CHEF is overpowered

mild cloak
#

Are we deadass

sage python
#

i dont like yes chef ngl

wet marsh
#

gotta love how the dlc characters have "bad" abilities when theyre still really good on any other base survivor

sage python
#

im glad its there

#

dont get me wrong

fresh scarab
#

Yes CHEF definitely could’ve been executed much better

#

its current implementations across the abilities is quite clunky

sage python
#

but i think using it kinda removes what makes chef chef for me

wet marsh
#

his ice cube shouldnt do that much damage and his armor shift during yes chef is wonky as fuck

#

cant you also animation cancel to immediately throw ice??

mild cloak
#

I can't open, observe, uninstall or see the location of arknights
