what the fuck are eternus players doing on rem

spirit support looks like?

Yah that does seem like normal spirit Rem

Hyperbole'd but still yeah it's big

Torment pulse is good for when you're healing a front liner

lavish grove
#

Yah, also that extra healing being a step towards healing tempo

#

Which is really good on rem

finite patrol
#

its less the pillow nuke and more the heal just becomes like 25%

#

and boundless and tag along spirit buff stack

#

also torment pulse hurts while youre attacked

#

attached*

agile void
#

worth mentioning

#

while in sleep range of stuff gets wider

#

so bigger range of t pulse

#

and if you tag minions

#

that is functionally 4 instances were you arw "untargetable" while tpulse procs

also silver's... collar piece?? tag?? idk what it'd be called. the moon shape is from a bullet hole.

it's not 'oh, she has a necklace shaped like a moon' it's 'oh, she has a neclace which someone shot a piece out of and now it's vaguely moon-shaped'

I am thinking, siphon bullets on Silver might be really funny

But I haven't had time to test it

stable forum
#

it's fine if you can kill people? I'm not sure why it'd be especially good on her.

#

%missing health heal i guess?

#

my general silver build advice is Kinetic Dash + Hollow Point + Hunter's Aura + Stamina Mastery -> Phantom Strike I think.

Restorative Locket is cool too. I think building lots of stamina is good on her though.

#

she does a large amount of damage with just KD + HP + HA

rich grove
#

the name of the game is Do Not Get CC'd

somber creek
#

I had an amazing Silver game

stable forum
#

ehh? Getting CC'd doesn't matter tooo much, Silver is quite durable. She wants to be able to survive a burst of damage at low health though.
Dispel Magic / Restorative Locket are good for that.

the inverse is that happening lmao

stable forum
rich grove
#

yeah

stable forum
#

surely you will not regret buying eight stamina and an additional dash on silver

rich grove
#

seems reasonable to also buy PS just so you don't have to do anything

#

just press button

#

gap closed

merry verge
#

PS also good for the 'well they're flying now' problem of Wolf Mode

#

though it is fun to get the jump arc right

stable forum
#

yeaa

merry verge
#

I feel a bit weird about Kdash on her, I guess it's another reload but 25% attack speed is.. hard to notice

#

gun damage and more stamina tho idk

finite patrol
#

I love PS

#

so satisfying to just tear a mofo out of the sky on a close combat hero

merry verge

she's durable enough to just go for Ulting Sevens too

which you usually can because: fuck

7's ult is low dps

if you have a bullet resist shred you can just shoot him

merry verge

i guess i do also do it on drifter the only other person i've built it on

#

get Rended idiot

finite patrol
#

love playing warden and shooting seven in the head while he ults and killing him

stable forum
#

7's ult is strong if 7 hits you with the shreds first. it's also nice for like, area denial & finishing off low health people

#

but 7's ult isn't more dps than 7 just shooting you with the zappies

merry verge
#

I see people building Bullet Resist Shredder on Silver and like

#

she has one ability to do spirit damage, right?

#

the kick shot i guess..

stable forum
merry verge

kick shot and tail swipe

stable forum
#

it's okay, I don't recommend it over hunter's aura

or hollow point

merry verge

I thought Pounce was melee- OH the DoT

stable forum
#

yeaa

#

heck i don't think i recommend bullet resist shredder on silver over rusty barrel >.>

merry verge
#

1.9 melee multiplier on pounce feels crazy

#

I've seen people call it just a mobility option and like what

finite patrol
#

I think the only reasonable purple item to buy on silver is cold front? she already has slowing hex in her kit and PS is better than KD

yes but what if you bought second slowing hex

euuhghhh

I dont think so

dauntless is right about hunters + hollow point

deathy's wife: Billy has a pink background, so I think that means that the team that picked him is more confident in their masculinity.

"if you want to take walkers on rem you can punch them, put helpers on creeps, then when the walker stomps, jump to a creep and continue punching"

frail jasper
#

Yep. Though you can also just bait the walker stomp, then walk a short distance out of the radius, then go back in. It's got a 6 second cooldown.

#

Any time anyone starts trying to ambush you, just put 1-2 helpers on a nearby trooper wave and then hide in the troopers to buy a lot of time.

rich grove
#

I mostly think it's really funny that you can say "yeah I kill walkers with torment pulse and arctic blast on rem" and this is not ironic

Warden is popular for reasons I haven't understood, but yeah Abrams is fuckin' STURDY (generally)

late hare
#

here's a somewhat silly question; how do pick rates work

#

like why is it not a % out of 100%

#

I guess because you can have multiple people in your picks?

vestal hearth
#

I haven't seen anyone play him and this video is the first time I've seen him in a bit.

merry verge

I had like a five game streak of Server Admin Abrams, but maybe the recent nerf hit hard 'cause I see much less of him

she fills the tanky role I like

I like her more than the other intiators 'cause they don't usually have an 800 damage death laser on 1

also i talk in here too much, wuh

As problematic as it may be, at least the Sinclair won't have a big heap of orange items to be as deadly as it could be.

final osprey
#

If I'm playing sinclair and I know I'm going to be getting Silver ult, I'd probably build some oranges

#

Part of playing around sinclairs ult is that you get stuff that's good for enemy ults

vivid nimbus
#

Yeah I can see grabbing a few laning oranges that you'll sell later

#

I think lategame oranges is ??? tho

stable forum
#

Sinclair can buy uhhh

#

Arcane Surge

#

which is okay in lycan

stable forum
#

if you were to really play into it, you could go for Crippling Headshot I guess. It's not an item Silver buys, but it's a shred overlap between bullet resist shred and spirit resist shred, and Sinclair gets a much more controlled version of Silver's ult from what I remember.

#

Bullet Resist Shred is the big thing Silver wants to be buying for damage.

rich grove
#

it didn't hurt that she just kept getting pelted with bolts over and over and then when she burnt every cd to close the gap I just immediately hit the reverse card

#

the difference between a rem who understands the existence of tunnels and one who doesn't is really something

#

today's DFN was a real before/after moment as far as my understanding of how much econ Rem's existence contributes to the team

vivid nimbus
#

Also those pillows hurt once he has spirit items

rich grove
#

just for him being selected at the menu he just passively contributes 800 souls on top of him not splitting the wave bounty with others as he's running boxes

vivid nimbus
#

Also IDK if I'm crazy or not but it feels like tunnel boxes have a higher chance of having souls

rich grove
#

one other character interacts with the mechanic, she's way slower at it and has other priorities, and just gets her ankles broken should she actually try to break boxes in a game with Rem on the other side

#

he's way faster and doesn't have the risk of accidentally jamming himself somewhere if he wants to fight

rich grove
#

like it's literally exactly the same as boundless spirit's +spirit and then x% spirit

vivid nimbus
#

That too

frail jasper
#

Yeah max 2 is really good. I love this little bird rat, he's so fun to be a little bastard with.

#

I find myself not using the tunnels much though. They're very nice when they lead to the right places but I'm running around doing other things all the time

#

you meean the graves gun ive been shredding with was bugged to do less damage, llol

late hare
#

like it's a bit of displacement and a slightly increased instance of damage, and you can use it to escape

vestal trench
#

i do think the stamina reset is realllly useful but yeeah

late hare
#

but as an offensive tool it seems kinda lacking, as compared to something like Calico dash

finite patrol
#

gap closer when youre going dogmode

warped ridge
#

you might also be able to 90 it up but I have no idea if that'll work

finite patrol
#

the ability to flick the camera behind you and throw them back is crucial yeah

late hare
#

I mean using boot kick to push the other guy behind you isn't the intent of the ability I feel, even if it's a strategically valuable use

finite patrol
#

You sure about that?

#

it sets up bola and slam fire pretty good too imo since you know where youre putting em

warped ridge
#

I mean you can use it for that or use it as an escape, using it for raw damage is kinda meh when you can just left click/melee.

Like it might work as low cc if the opponent needs to be able to move to use their abilities but even then, out of all the usage, given how the game isn't a 1v1 for laning phase and how bad minions hurt early on, I'd def say it's strongest use is displacement into your minion wave with your teammate whacking them, esp if your teammate whacks them with a heavy melee when you boot kick

merry verge
#

I know it's a moba

#

but every left click carry should be turned into something else

finite patrol

i gotta say, i'm very pleased with his characterization-

i thought he'd be more of the stereotypical DEUS VULT jackass but he's just. Genuinely compassionate. Also obviously unhinged and violent, but as far as it goes for "red right hands of the Vatican", he seems pretty mellow, which i like

Basically Father Andersen but he choose kindness instead of outright beatshit insane

Venator is really fun

I was expecting him to be more tanky and frontline focused but this is still really fun

He’s so far the only gun carry the game has that I actually like playing

#

Also his ult is, so goddamn funny

It’s insanely strong lol

twilit roost

did the game just have a server hiccup then have a rank pop up?

lavish grove
#

And eventually becomes 3 true damage executed

stable forum
#

er, a lot of boon scaling

#

his ult & 1 are both boon-scaling true damage

#

so he can in theory go hard tank maybe?

#

and still hit moderately hard?

#

rank 3 gutshot also gives you another true damage hit

#

can absolutely go for ability duration + charges & go for tankiness i think

you very blatantly just max ult asap

and then stack one million weapon damage

because you can't resist 3x 900 damage orbital shiv executes

vivid nimbus

Ah nope, pure damage also ignores barriers

rich grove
#

what

#

I didn't even know that part that's crazy

#

I think even when they do nerf ult he is maybe the most bloody-mindedly m1 exclusive character because everything cares about orange and orange only

#

he gets resists from spirit but 15% at 100 spirit that only dubiously contributes to the rest of your gameplan is surely not where you want to be

vivid nimbus
#

Not a lot of things that deal pure damage, it's basically:

  • Health-steal abilities/items (Geist 4, Mirage 1, Siphon Bullets)
  • Post-mitigation damage amp (Billy 1, Focus Lens)
  • Executes (Talon 4 T3, Shiv 4)
  • Venator

# agile void going on and on about how anachronistic one or two things are doesnt change that...

billy is at least 30 years early for sex pistols-era punk
computers exist in a more sophisticated fashion than the time
dynamo's gun is named after kurt vonnegut who wouldn't become popular for at least a decade or two. also the concept of a black hole or singularity wasn't coined until 1960
victor's model of staple gun is Also a much newer model than the period would suggest
the mention of houdini's death would set this timeline back from the 40s by a few years or a couple decades depending on how closely it adheres to his actual life

the timeline could be set at any point in time from the tail end of the 20s to like the early 50s. it also doesn't precisely matter anyway, bc it's more of a vibe first, with clear diversions in history and technology

either way, it probably shouldnt deal 2k a shot

frail jasper
#

The scaling on his abilities is weird right now and a lot of people were mixed up on what parts even scale at all

But it's mostly weapon damage, so he just buys glass cannon and battle vest and weighted rounds and merks people

rich grove
#

yup

#

orangemaxxer

frail jasper
#

He does get dual resist scaling with spirit power too so there's reason to grab spirit spike items just because. Most generically would be superior duration and maybe greater reach (makes the traps huge)

rich grove
#

it's like 15% at 100 spirit so it's really not worth focussing on spirit primarily

#

you should basically just put the 4.8k in the bag

vivid nimbus
#

Getting him just to 4.8k or 6.4k is prolly the move, yeah

frail jasper
#

go sharpshooter hollow point opening rounds hunter aura and enjoy glitched ult
Or maybe it might be a bug that he does 2000 damage lol

rich grove
#

I would consider BRS + your choice of 3.2k spirit active to proc it but I'm unsure

vivid nimbus
#

He might like bonus charges too later on? Because he has charges on not just the trap but also grenade T3

#

BRS I'm unsure about because his only spirit damage is the trap

frail jasper
#

BRS works with toxic bullets, but he lacks methods to apply BRS in general. Tesla bullets works

vivid nimbus

Ah right procs

being even is a quantum superposition of being behind and being ahead which cannot be determined until observed in a team fight

warped ridge
#

#

Being even would just be avg of all players or even between your lane

#

Unless you mean like

#

"Impossible to be even because powerspikes different"

In which case yeah but then that would just be behind or even depending on the powerspikes

The only spirit damage you can do without items is his traps, and I don't think they're really worth it enough to try a strange spirit Venator build

funny to look at

Spirit does give him a little Bullet/Spirit resist, makes sneaking in a purple feel less bad
