ye

robust sluice
#

bruh

mild crypt
#

I do agree with superheavy giving an extra nade

robust sluice
#

now you only nerf hof

sterile root
#

that's how we did it in the eu pug revival

frank sphinx
#

I will never play JUG again

robust sluice
#

offense dont even switch off x1

pulsar gyro
#

superheavy +1 belt item

#

very pog

#

ill still play jug with untocuhed x1

robust sluice
#

ok i agree

frank sphinx
#

I'm not playing even jug HOF with super heavy

robust sluice
#

with that

#

actually

digital dagger
#

Again. I'd rather buff sld than nerf jug at this point

mild crypt
#

I would not say no to buffing SLD tbh

robust sluice
#

sld dmg is fine

#

the problem is sniper

#

sniper doesnt allow sld to become meta

digital dagger
#

O balance aside, jug hof is in a great place. I don't wanna fw that

mild crypt
#

yeah

frank sphinx
#

Do we make tech a baby's first O class or something

sterile root
frank sphinx
#

Easy to hit but lower damage idk

pulsar gyro
#

@digital dagger the changes proposed dont change jug hof

robust sluice
#

i dont want to pug like we used to, going for the sides making the game slower xd

#

no figit+midfield runs > side runs+ figit

digital dagger
pulsar gyro
#

+1 belt item with superheavy

#

no safety third

robust sluice
#

id reduce hp then too

#

for offense

#

but add a bonus hp to super heavy

frank sphinx
#

Is everyone forgetting how strong brute is

robust sluice
#

dodge first let the jugg be nerfed

#

then brute

#

be patient

digital dagger
#

Hmm. Idk. Superheavy is good but qd is so much better to survive

robust sluice
#

its a trade

pulsar gyro
#

tradeoff

sterile root
#

exactly

digital dagger

#

@digital dagger jug already has 2 discs because you want rage anyway

digital dagger
#

I never run rage on hof

sterile root
#

then you are a big dum dum

digital dagger
#

Not in this meta. You get hard punished for chasing rn

sterile root
#

you don't chase, you stay alive for the walk

digital dagger
#

O brainded camps stand these days

robust sluice
#

k dont change the subject lets get to the nerf point so dodge can work on that

#

and we update settings for pug tonight

digital dagger
#

I'm down for the SH change

sterile root
#

coupled with safety third ban

robust sluice
#

+1 belt item with superheavy
no safety third

digital dagger
#

Can we not blanket ban s3? Just no combo? Or do we not have the tech

mild crypt
#

rip my 50 second 4 nitron routes

sterile root
#

I don't think we have the tech but I might be wrong

#

could set discs to 1 and make superheavy +2 belt items but then fractal party bruh

digital dagger
#

Idk that seems fine to me too. Fractals are good but they're not busted.

pulsar gyro
#

fractalls are busted

#

tehy impulse cappers

mild crypt
sterile root
#

it's not the worst, the problematic part of belt items is the quickdraw pairing for sure

digital dagger
#

Not since we fixed the final blast weird shit

mild crypt
#

impulse cappers, 350 damage per hit

pulsar gyro
#

theys till do

mild crypt
#

it's just a big fuck you to cappers

digital dagger
#

Ya. Fractals are still good

pulsar gyro
#

fuxking arx side routes are awful

#

when hof thows a fractal down and u miss flag

sterile root
#

can the impulse not be changed?

#

might be worthy of its own thread

digital dagger
#

I'd be down to remove the impulse on Fractals. It should never have been there in the first place

robust sluice
#

we can do perk bans if a weapon is equipped iirc

digital dagger
#

Make the thread jack. I'm with you

robust sluice
#

like it is for sentinel

mild crypt
#

sentinel has banned combinations?

digital dagger
#

Ye. We banned rage/phase and rage/sap back in the day

mild crypt
#

oh yeah, valid

digital dagger
#

I don't think we ever lifted that ban tbh lol

mild crypt
#

sap doesn't exist anymore though

#

and no one runs phase

digital dagger
#

Bc bxt is just wildly superior

#

In most practical situations

mild crypt
#

yeah

#

why not lift the ban?

digital dagger
#

SAP rage was nuts bc you could do 520 something on a cappers entry and the same dmg on exit

mild crypt
#

I did have a suggestion for sap, fwiw

#

bring it back and just make it so that you can't regen E in invos

#

with the rage ban it's just a little better phase in rare cases

robust sluice
#

i think it is

#

ServerSettings.MutuallyExclusiveItems.add("Heavy", "X1 LMG","Heavy", "Safety Third")

sterile root
#

again, let's not clutter this thread

robust sluice
#

bans safety third if you have x1

sterile root
#

the idea was to ban safety third with discs I think

#

not that honorjug is a problem or anything

robust sluice
#

it is an example xd then it is for throwing disks

#

ServerSettings.MutuallyExclusiveItems.add("Heavy", "Spinfusor Disk", "Heavy", "Safety Third")

#

dodge has to update the settings file on github anyway

mild crypt
#

triple spindisc honorjug xd

#

that would be bad if we actually had low ping players who could hit midairs

sterile root
#

only if ld is tetraplegic

mild crypt
#

bruh I know you can, Solly, but I know there's much better xd

pulsar gyro
#

once this gets changed ill no longer have to hear jive say "i threw my third discus at his meniscus" ever again

sterile root
#

now I'm sad I never got to be a part of that

pulsar gyro
#

well i made it up

#

so i am sad too

sterile root
pulsar gyro
#

im here to ruin your happiness

pulsar gyro
#

most likely

digital dagger
#

Oh pog

frank sphinx
#

I can do it when I get home but I'm at work now

digital dagger
#

Guess we don't need that other thread @sterile root

frank sphinx
#

I still don't agree with this change

digital dagger
#

Fractal?

frank sphinx
#

Throwing disc

digital dagger
#

I don't really either. But I'm down to try whatever

#

I won't say no to a good college try

frank sphinx
#

They are already harder to aim than brutes disc because of timing

digital dagger
#

OK I disagree with you there.

frank sphinx
#

All it does is nerf noobs like myself who can't pound first or 2nd try

pulsar gyro
#

it would nerf me

#

having 3 makes lets me farm lds 3 times

frank sphinx
#

I don't think it stops people running heavy too which is like, the whole issue

digital dagger
#

First off if you're using the disc's for anything other than a close range gp you're usually just wasting a disc

frank sphinx
#

Brutes is just way better imo

digital dagger
#

It is. But then why is everyone playing jug

frank sphinx
#

I do because I'm trying to learn mortar

digital dagger
#

Probably bc mortar is the best weapon in the game

pulsar gyro
#

x1 with low ping is fun

#

3 discs is powerful

#

mortar is nice for clear when my bad energy management stops me from making it to stand

frank sphinx
#

The only thing getting me off heavies is buffing medium tbh

pulsar gyro
#

brute i have to choose between snipe and stand (almost exclusively choose stand)
jug and can kill ld, snipe then mortar stand

digital dagger
#

Which is why I keep pushing for a SLD buff

frank sphinx
#

How would you buff SLD?

digital dagger
#

Bc most of our high pingers pron feel the same.

#

Either a straight up health buff or some hitscan buff

#

A way to contest snipe without shield pack is what I would want to end up with

#

Either that or maneuvering that's superior enough to offset the survivability you get by picking heavy instead

#

Which tbf it kind of already has

#

But it's not enough you just die to sen

#

I think a small buff to sld cap as a side effect wouldn't be an issue either.

#

Can we give SLD jammer pack?

#

Actually I'm gonna split this to a different thread

robust sluice
#

imma download it

#

i downloaded settings like a month ago

#

I dont think this solves anything but this is a step in the right direction

#

ACTUALLY

#

Thoughts on removing the extra speed you get to throw discs with Q.D?

#

this makes it easier to dodge as ld/md

#

this is a defense biased post

#

but it doesn't solve dodge's issue

frank sphinx
#

Yeah I'm bad and need faster discs

mild crypt
#

okay, here's a question that I imagine has been answered

#

how hard is it to make even a basic predictive mechanic based on player ping

full solar
#

bad net code.

mild crypt
#

bruh yeah, the netcode is bad

#

but why couldn't a predictive mechanic exist to account for player ping

bright frigate
#

because we're not competent developers for fortune 500 companies

mild crypt
#

bruh I didn't know how hard something like that was

#

which was why I asked

frank sphinx
#

It'd be easier if we had debug tools

#

Verifying it works is the harder part

#

Works correctly anyway

bright frigate
#

We don't have access to the source code

mild crypt
#

that would be an issue, then

full solar
#

loved playing Jug's Ascend last night

#

that was fun

bright frigate
#

just wait until the sequel...
