who could’ve ever thought

#

simply incomprehensible

wise fossil
#

hmmm to try out the Stripped Down meme or to just take Deathspitter

marble bridge
#

stripped down is not a meme what

I know it's not really a meme it's just funny to me that it works so well

Reddit moment

sharp ember
#

ah yes, but what about second crusher?

terse idol
#

Put down crushers with a spray of headshots...

#

With the entire mag

junior needle
#

recon lasguns good because I take rending talent, only recons do this

terse idol
#

the cope

#

Oh my god

candid vapor
#

Yeah... spraying should involve killing a whole group. Not one crusher

junior needle
#

You know this dude sprays into melee chaffe the whole game and suctions ammo

sharp ember
#

i do the same thing with graia brauto except i get more ammo and base damage to work with

junior needle
#

You know the people who upvoted him do too

took less than half the mag

#

idk man

#

recons are bad but theyre not THAT bad please do not lie about it theres valid shit to call them dogwater about

#

like the fact theyre miles less ammo efficient than the infantry lasguns

wanton dawn
#

1k1 dps on crusher is mild though

junior needle
terse idol
#

HMmmmm

near sable
#

grahhh

marble bridge
#

ok lemme just switch it to +flak and not use exec

junior needle
#

Barely anyone uses exe anymore, but definitely no one runs carapace on a recon

#

But the moral of the story is that any automatic using onslaught can bust crushers

terse idol
#

I thought that one had the best damage

junior needle
#

It does have the best dps

#

7a is middle of the pack

HERESY FM

it is like 2 points extra for the ability to kill crushers with a gun

wanton dawn

#

That's fair enough

BLACKSTONE FORTRESS CAREENING INTO CADIA

ONLY REAL BEATS FOR REAL HERETICS

wanton dawn
#

Take the columnus for instance: would you take onslaugh for anything else than crusher ?

terse idol
#

I mean okay to be fair

junior needle
terse idol
#

Columnus compared with anything is goofy

sharp ember
#

what’s the starting falloff distance of IAG anyway

junior needle
#

It has weirdly massive falloff

terse idol
#

This is the biggest problem we're facing

wanton dawn
tidal rapids
#

Honestly, I would rather either use krak grenade or melee them

terse idol
#

That the comparison rolls back to literally the most broken iag in the game

junior needle

#

stanposting begins now

wanton dawn
terse idol
#

I'll keepmy mind open

#

To the recon sweatbold

marble bridge
hard briar
#

Heavy Bolter when

wanton dawn
terse idol
#

I thought onslaught was honestly mandatory for auto's

junior needle
#

You wanna take both since the 6d goes down to 50% on multiple damage types

marble bridge
#

anything that cant benefit from onslaught has enough armour damage that they dont need rending

hard briar
#

Braced Heavy Bolter when?

marble bridge
#

like sure, rending is better with revolver or plasma but they already kill fast enough it doesnt matter

sharp ember
terse idol
#

I mean then I'd have to ask soldier if you're willing to replicate the test sweatbold

hard briar
#

Hand Cannon when?

terse idol
#

cause that doesn't seem the wooorst

marble bridge
#

who gives a shit theyre already dying lol

sharp ember
#

who’s taking rending on plasma staregryn

marble bridge
#

nobody

terse idol
#

I wouldn't take rending on plasma

#

TBH

quick steeple
#

yea thats wasted point

junior needle
terse idol
#

Noooo

#

We can't

#

It's not feasible

#

To compare any gun to columnus

wanton dawn
#

btw, I reach 1k4 dps with my non rending, non carapace columnus build on crusher

terse idol
#

I think it's so wildly agreed that the columnus is so broke

white minnow
#

crit moment

terse idol
#

Any weapon compared to the ciag is weak

hard briar
#

Actually did I even take it for this primary fire one shot on mutant?

sharp ember
#

columnus
columnus brauto whatthefuck_heresy

terse idol
#

Until columnus actually gets in line

junior needle
terse idol
#

It's just not possible

#

Hmm

#

Ehhhhh

junior needle
#

In terms of baseline

terse idol
#

I wish I knew

quick steeple
#

burst agri iag meme is funn

marble bridge
terse idol
#

Which wait

hard briar
#

Isn't graia

#

The shoot faster?

terse idol
#

Means the ciag is mor2 damage

#

If it shoots faster

slender turtle
junior needle
terse idol
#

I'd be kinda okay with that

tidal rapids
#

Nah, give the infantry lasgun full auto mode

slender turtle
#

it's just the laser version

terse idol
#

With full auto mod

wanton dawn
terse idol
#

Yeah, this is why

#

I cannot say we can compare the CIAG

wanton dawn
#

And I am never shooting crusher with it. I consider it a mistake

white minnow
#

though graia does have better falloff so there's that at least going for it

hard briar
#

Give the recon lasguns...
A hose that connects into the mag/battery slot.
Then give up the crit damage modifier to 3.5x
Then attach a massive battery pack to the back of the player that the hose comes out of.

I just fix recon lasguns fatshark it only took like. 5 seconds.

I hunger for hotshot las

maybe for Grendel

junior needle
tidal rapids
#

Borrow some gunner equipment from the local moebian regiments, clearly standard issue stuff with how many the 6th got running around

terse idol
#

Is that applying the super close damage doe?

hard briar
# near sable maybe for Grendel

Grendyl shows up in a fucking Imperial Knight blasting "WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE!"
And then calls us broke for using rifles in a mecha fight

terse idol
#

Gotta do the test from similar range or is it the same?

junior needle
near sable
#

I hope Grendyl shows up on screen eventually

wanton dawn
terse idol
#

I guess that's fairr

near sable
#

mainly to blam someone

terse idol
#

pain

wanton dawn
#

Not even the most dps in can achieve, I did not take carapce and elite

terse idol
#

yeah, I dunno

#

Maybe

terse idol
#

Maybe the columnus needs to be nerfed so we can actually see what everything is doing

wanton dawn
#

THough hey, maybe I will try something like this in no ammo modifier

terse idol
#

Because this is craaaazy

#

because part of me kinda agree's that the recon isn't that bad... well when you fully invest into shooting crushers

hard briar
near sable
#

this cat me

#

look at his splendor and grace

#

the face of a cat armed with the Columnus IAG

hard briar
junior needle
hard briar
junior needle
#

But yeah, due to how both the guns are close in carapace modifiers, carapace is the most flattering showcase for recons vs any autogun

junior needle
#

Maybe if I squish my fov

wanton dawn
junior needle
#

But yeah, point made. There's nothing special about recons for carapace killing and it's literally just rending talents. Any automatic weapon uses them well.

terse idol
#

😭

wanton dawn
#

a god roll recon can barely compete with a dumpster ciag

junior needle
#

Depending on the target, it's a definitive win for the ciag

fast sundial
#

funny how recon lasguns try to do autogun things but they do negative damage and have reverse falloff

wanton dawn
junior needle
#

They don't have reverse falloff anymore

#

And it was only one that did

fast sundial
#

oh, indeed?

junior needle
fast sundial
#

unfortunately it still tickles

junior needle
#

I need to post it when people ask

#

Yeah the guns still blow

fast sundial
#

it turns you into The Extremely Slow Killer With The Horribly Inefficient Weapon

#

except a spoon might actually be more effective

hard briar
terse idol
#

wouldn't it be better to compare recon with any other iag, other than the ciag

wanton dawn
#

I don't think a single "good" weapon look this bad against mutant

terse idol
#

lasgun kekdoge

wanton dawn
#

especially with a +25% mutant perk advantage

terse idol
#

I'm joking

#

It's a different tool

fast sundial
#

i just melee mutants

terse idol
#

We need the spread sheet

wanton dawn
#

Also this is not a test made in good faith

marble bridge
#

woa they admit it

#

shooting the back of a mutant is a bad test

wanton dawn
#

You think it would look better on the front ?

#

CIAG has HUGE weakspot modifier. Recon has terrible ones

#

I made everything so that recon looks better

marble bridge
#

it would be less disingenuous if you shoot in the front

wanton dawn
#

Sure, but then I probably need to nerf the ciag further

marble bridge
#

if youre that bad at aiming that hitting weakspots is a bad test you probably need to stop playing veteran

terse idol
#

It doesn't look much betterrr

white minnow
#

non-weakspot comparisons are the relative best case scenario for the recon

wanton dawn
marble bridge
#

sorry

#

that was not the intent

terse idol
#

Mutant head's also move very erratically while idle but we do have the videoo of a comparison with headshots from the front

wanton dawn
#

Am saying that if i introduce weakspot to the mix, ciag will annihilate recon

marble bridge
#

yea thats how it is

#

youre going to be hitting weakspots in a normal game

junior needle
#

Including on bodyshots.

terse idol
#

*nod

junior needle
#

They also have very similar ammo pools, but iag's have like 2x the damage per ammo used on bodyshots at least, even more on headshots/crits.

junior needle
terse idol
#

Part of me just feeels like, it's just further proof of how ciag is literally insane.
Any other IAG or Braced autogun SHOULD at baseline without any talents or perks would also struggle in this test

#

I'm like ahh

trim hemlock
terse idol
trim hemlock
#

and Mutant by design is supposed to be 'resistant' to ranged by having a huge health pool

terse idol
#

that's pretty sad

junior needle
junior needle
#

The huge healthpool is also why it's so good for dps testing

terse idol
#

It's a good way to test how much damage a thing can do because of the massive healh pool

junior needle
#

And also the fact that its head, while uncooperative for low dps headshot testing, doesn't bob a shitload when shot

#

Like the rager does, which is the next highest hp maniac

trim hemlock
terse idol
#

evidentally Graia seems similar to recon on back shots, but excels in weakpoint

terse idol
#

For DPS testing

junior needle
trim hemlock
#

And what will you use that DPS for realistically

#

Or just "for fun"?

marble bridge
#

dps that isnt going to happen anywhere that isnt the psykanium lol

terse idol
#

You don't DPS test on a maniac with less HP than the mutant, it's testing purely for damage

junior needle
#

What kind of question is that

terse idol
#

CIAG just dumpsters crushers

#

In actual gameplay too

#

You can reliably get headshots on charging crushers

#

With the gria

trim hemlock
#

Please ease your mind

#

I'm not attacking you

marble bridge
#

if youre going to test a weapons damage you should do it in normal conditions, where you have a normal-ish skill tree and are shooting something in the face lol

terse idol
#

The TTK to damage is important in these real scenerio's because you only have so much time to get so much damage on target

terse idol
#

Because if it performs well without anything it'll benefit much more from talents

junior needle
terse idol
#

If it struggles baseline, it won't perform on-par with weapons that gain MUCH more benefit from talents

white minnow
#

they're going to take similar talents anyways

terse idol
#

It'll perform below-average

marble bridge
terse idol
#

I mean

#

The Gria and Agri test

#

Shows that the ttk for headshots

#

Is very low on recon

#

for mutants

terse idol
#

It's gonna struggle harder

#

On normal gameplay

junior needle
terse idol
#

Because then the time to kill is faster, you have more variance

#

All your shots aren't gonna land exactly on the one weakpoint

#

Which, if the weapon isn't already performing well in a sterile enviroment

#

It's gonna perform worse

#

In actual gameplay

marble bridge
#

should hold up for every other fast firing weapon

terse idol
#

In both scenerios

#

🥹

junior needle
marble bridge
junior needle
#

What's that mod called for the psyk gear change

terse idol
#

I mean again

marble bridge
#

loadout config

terse idol
#

This is the whole discussion of building

marble bridge
#

should be on nexus if it isnt i can link you it

terse idol
#

You're right

#

It's just

#

Oh myan

marble bridge
#

ok this is the fast firing weapon tree i use

terse idol
#

I feel like it turns into the discussion of "Is it worth it to build this weapon"

If I build this weapon am I gonna turn it into an above average performing weapon or is it just gonna be baseline for other weapons

junior needle
terse idol
#

Cause I'm certainly feeling like, building a recon is just building in line for the baseline of many other Auto guns

#

While if you just

#

built an autogun in the first place, you're gonna be performing better

junior needle
terse idol
#

It just harkens back to

terse idol
#

Well Recon needs a buff

marble bridge
#

autos are just better at the moment

terse idol
#

*shrug

#

Yeah

marble bridge
#

yea

junior needle
#

Recons are just shit KEKW_ogryn

marble bridge
#

stacking the deck to make recons look good if anything would delay them getting a buff lol

terse idol
#

It's the issue that, building a recon is just building it to perform in line with regular autoguns

#

And this is literally

#

With what you built

#

God roll

#

Max damage rolls

junior needle
#

Fatshark doesn't seem to have any issue with delaying buffs for them without help

terse idol
#

Best blessings

#

Best Perks

#

To get

#

Baseline for an IAG

terse idol
#

I mean we're bound to get like

#

Some communication

junior needle
#

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment

terse idol
#

Anywhoo

#

We'll see

#

Or we won't

#

😌

marble bridge
terse idol
#

You don't need

#

Max 80 damage

marble bridge
#

if you mean same results for the half the effort sure

terse idol
#

In all stats

#

Yeah

#

Daat's what I meant

marble bridge
junior needle
terse idol
#

IT MIGHT BE
But urgh

marble bridge
#

80 damage compared to 0 damage is like a 25% drop in total damage

terse idol
#

If we're gonna get really unhinged

#

Someone's gonna have to test BP's per bullet

#

On an automatic weapon

junior needle
#

Just because you don't go to zero damage from a zero damage stat doesn't mean that damage isn't an important stat

terse idol
#

For different damage values

#

Well

#

It's also because damage affects literally all other damage values

junior needle
#

Also here's pure headshots. You get more value with infernus off testing against muties because stacking.

terse idol
junior needle
#

Ciag still does way more, gray, baseline

terse idol
#

It's just efficiency

junior needle
#

no talents

marble bridge
terse idol
#

Again you could probably get away with 70min damage on all guns 😌

marble bridge
#

80->70 is a drop off 229->221, which is a 4% drop

junior needle
#

And?

#

I'll take 14 more damage per shot

#

I don't even know what gun we're talking about

terse idol
#

Sophie you did watch tanner's video on damage is a dumpstat eh?
Because I didn't 😌

#

I

#

reallly don't like

marble bridge
#

going from 70 to 80

junior needle
#

Dump stat means it's less important than other stats

#

And you'd ideally want it the lowest for others

#

That's not damage

#

While the damage stat may be less impactful than it seems in a vacuum

#

You still want it maxed for efficiency, it directly and clearly benefits you

terse idol
#

well

junior needle
#

Considerably more than say, mobility on a ranged weapon

marble bridge
#

stopping power affects your armour damage, stability affects the recoil which is probably more important than damage, missing shots makes damage number 0; and mobility is REALLY noticable if youre trying to back away from stuff while shooting

terse idol
#

I gues sit is that tohught process of if you're down 8 damage

sharp ember
#

i pewpew da boss

terse idol
#

That's 8 damage per every shot on an automatic weapon

junior needle
#

Uh huh, that adds up

terse idol
#

Daamge

#

Every damage stat is directly related to damage

white minnow
#

(ammo is conveniently missing)

terse idol
#

Crit, affected by damage values

sharp ember
#

80% ammo forever

marble bridge
#

ammo drops like 2 rounds from a small tin and 7 from a red ammo

terse idol
#

And the way crits work, it's hard to get more crit damage

terse idol
#

It's a question of TTK

#

Imo

#

You're dumping for 60 damage

#

for your automatic weapon, now all enemies take a few more bullets, all your cits do a little less

#

All your damage modifiers

#

Do a little less

#

It's compounding

#

At least that's why I don't want to watch tanner's video and that's a cop out on my part

fast sundial
marble bridge
terse idol
fast sundial
#

well, not really

terse idol
#

which is compounding per bullet

terse idol
junior needle
marble bridge
fast sundial
#

takes a while for flak, or distant targets

terse idol
#

I mean

#

If you're speaking of dumping damage

#

like you said it's 7%

#

Compounding on all damage values

#

I'm not comfortable admitting Damage is a dumpstat rn relaxgek

marble bridge
#

🤷‍♀️ thats fine

white minnow
#

and it's still good for flak if you hit headshots

terse idol
#

This also affects theoretically

junior needle
terse idol
#

Long-range drop off

marble bridge
#

it just does not has as big as an impact as youd think

terse idol
#

So you are constantly missing more and more damage

white minnow
junior needle
marble bridge
#

like literally stopping power is higher damage for same total stats

white minnow
#

the columnus is the unique one among the IAGs

#

the graia and agri are the same flavor (same DPS and ADMs, just different damage per shot and fire rate)

terse idol
#

But stopping power affects a certain group of targets no?
which still damage benefits stopping powerrr
I just FEEL like in some situations you may not know it, but those compounding percentages add up

white minnow
#

columnus has higher ADMs up close & worse ADMs farther away

terse idol
#

At least if we're talking

#

A true dump

#

On 60%

fast sundial
#

why not just dump mobility

terse idol
#

Why not dump stability

marble bridge
terse idol
#

If you want a stat that's really goofy between 60 and 80

#

Then stability is literally useless

#

And mobility kinda too honestly..

marble bridge
terse idol
#

As long as you don't lose a dodge

fast sundial
marble bridge
#

i have died in 3veg a couple of times from half inch too short dodges

fast sundial
#

actual question

marble bridge
#

trying to backpedal from a pogryn

terse idol
#

I mean I'm in the boat that a perfect weapon is just min 70 all stats(Barring weapons with crazy BP's like Rashad)

marble bridge
terse idol
#

Okay if you're say, using knife

#

You have the longest dodge distance

marble bridge
#

those .4m shorter dodges add up real quick if youre trying to dodge away from a crusher pack while killing them

terse idol
#

As far as I know even a 60% dump on mobi on a knife

#

Is still gonna be very easy to dodge things

#

Compard to a dclaw

white minnow
#

well crushers are one of the best enemies to dodge with low mobility weapons

#

not quite the enemy you want to use in your example

marble bridge
#

tea

terse idol
#

I beg to differ, I would rather dodge crushers with a knife

marble bridge
#

yea

terse idol
#

Would rather dodge anything with a knife tbh

marble bridge
#

i shouldve said something thats a little bit more dangerous like shotgunners or a chaos spawn

junior needle
#

Highly depends on the weapon too, some (like certain waterguns) have 2 near useless stats

terse idol
#

Some of these weapons just have inherently bad mobility

white minnow
#

yeah i wouldn't want to dodge crushers with a 0% mobility weapon but they can be dodged by sheer timing

#

compared to other enemies whose dodge catch is longer

terse idol
#

Yeah but it's the safety that a long dodge affords you

#

It does help give you distance so enemies behind that one

#

Don't also start winding up another attack

white minnow
#

i'm not saying that dodge distance isn't useful

#

i'm saying that another enemy is better picked an example

terse idol
#

Like maulers, or like bosses?

white minnow
#

maulers similarly have a low dodge catch

terse idol
#

Or well I guess a mauler is just a mini crusher

white minnow
#

yeah cspawns and ragers

marble bridge
#

just armour in general tbh in 3veg its all mixed hordes and armour

terse idol
#

Well ragers, you block and time to be faiiir

junior needle
#

Crab mentioned it before

white minnow
#

yeah iirc from what crab said, their dodge catch is the same as the attack hitbox

terse idol
#

Wait yeah..

#

I swear I've had that

white minnow
#

or it's tagged to be undodgeable or however it's implemented in code

terse idol
#

It's probably better to compare bosses with dodge

white minnow
#

basically can't spot dodge their combos

#

so dodge distance does matter since you can't dodge them through a timing component

terse idol
#

It's because it seems like their attacks are just blenders with no time to dodge in their flurry

late hatch
#

dodge backwards and watch ragers just swing their full combo at the air

terse idol
#

And then you can only dodge the last chain in their flurry

terse idol
#

You'll have times where they start hitting you while you dodge back and block

#

And still get hit

late hatch
terse idol
#

That's not this discussion

#

Yes

#

I can make it so ragers don't connect

#

Probably with dodging honestly

white minnow
#

there's massive lag compensation in your favor for the plogryn attacks in multiplayer games, and nothing needs to be said about the bonbon, so that leaves the cspawn

terse idol
#

But if they've already hit you, dodging seemingly cannot get you out again

#

You have to block

#

If you want a really wacky dodge discussion, Daemon host dodge

polar kayak
#

do you guys dodge + slide? this reminds me i need to request the keepsliding mod author to add slides in automatically

terse idol
#

Or... is it the same as a rager...

white minnow
#

i dodge-slide yeah though usually against ranged enemies

late hatch
#

dodging bon grab when you have the vom is wierd. i dodged it 3x in a row once. other times he grabbed me from like 5m away

marble bridge
white minnow
#

i only dodge-slide in other scenarios to move faster during a reload/psword activation or if I need the extra distance for a burster because of vet's slow consecutive dodge cooldown

marble bridge
#

gunner dr has even less value because of it

terse idol
#

hmmmmmmm

#

Not convinced about that lessened value

#

Can't always dodge slide

junior needle
#

Sprinting also does this

marble bridge
#

you should not be putting yourself into a situation where you are getting shot and cannot slide

junior needle
#

But to the sides

marble bridge
late hatch
terse idol
#

I put this example before but

#

You know the carnival drop off

junior needle
#

Mhm, and also you don't need stripped down but it does make it easier

white minnow
#

though if it's ranged enemies, you're going to always have stamina up anyways

terse idol
#

Where you put the data interregator in

marble bridge
gaunt hinge
#

fuckin dining hall ass area

terse idol
#

You can slide that, but you will get shot

junior needle
#

Yeah you can still get pinged between the slides

terse idol
#

Which I dooo think Gunner DR is still pretty good value

marble bridge
#

or you could just bring a columnus and kill them faster than they shoot you lol

terse idol
#

Slide dodging compliments it

marble bridge
#

like that room is literally just a gearcheck of can you kill gunners quickly

terse idol
#

Yeah kinda

#

But again

#

That means

#

Gunner DR with slide dodging just help one anotherr

polar kayak
#

maybe i’ll make a dumdum +stripped down CIAG :3

marble bridge
#

not really? if youve got a good build you dont need gunner dr

terse idol
#

hmmmmmm

#

Ehhhh

marble bridge
#

you just need iron will and shout for resistance and a reasonably ok rolled columnus

white minnow
#

gunner dr is nice so that i can dodge less since i can tank it for longer and have an easier time aiming

terse idol
#

There's cases where gunners who are on a second floor catwalk that will mulch you

gaunt hinge
#

simply take stamina regen and sprint cost reduc 🙂

terse idol
#

Look!

late hatch
#

im leaning more towards corruption res than any other atm

terse idol
#

Not everyone wants to run the most broken weapon in the game smh

#

yes

#

You can solve most problems in the game

With a colmunus

Corruption res on high level is useless 😌

The things that are killing you

marble bridge
#

and some chad knife zealot

terse idol
#

Isn't being 1hp on corruption

#

It's everything else

#

AND

#

Corruption resist doesn't even help you against wounds you take

#

I can see it being okay on like

#

Hunting grounds

#

Auric hunting grounds

#

But uh

late hatch
#

i disagree. often wipes happen when corruption starts to climb and you dont have a wound left

terse idol
#

Uh

#

Not for me

#

I run no wound curio's

#

No corruption res

marble bridge
#

wipes happen when i get netted once 👍

terse idol
#

What's killing me isn't taking corruption damage

#

Yes

marble bridge
#

randoms are not fun to play with

terse idol
#

When I get netted

#

And the flamers suddenly kinda

#

waltz out

#

To melt my face

marble bridge
#

i literally just do not play in randoms anymore

terse idol
#

Corruption resistance wouldn't have helped

#

Also!

#

Health stim

#

Has really made corruption resist abiit worse imo

marble bridge
terse idol
#

yeah, and you only have os many things that give you alot of corruption

#

Tox flamers... which do... more health damage than corruption damage

late hatch
#

silent bursters make corruption res more valuable though

terse idol
#

Poxwalkers

#

bursters do more health damage than corruption damage but sure

marble bridge
#

like corruption resist is maybe ok if youre gonna use purity zealot aura to stop it crossing a wound before it gets cleansed but like

polar kayak
#

how do i avoid playing with randoms >.>

terse idol
#

If pox bursters are your problem

#

Stack toughness

#

Hit VOC

#

Take 0 damage

late hatch
marble bridge
#

dont get rewards for it tho

terse idol
#

Like unironically

marble bridge
#

is fin

#

fun

terse idol
#

You'd probably still have more value vs pox bursters

#

With +toughness extra on curios

#

SECOND

#

You'll probably only encounter a few silent pox bursters, and getting hit by more than 1 just means you'll drop dead by the 3rd

#

maybe in twins hardmode? but like just build more cdr and stam stuff and then be done before you get corrupted

terse idol
#

In twins hardmode just run 3 Gunlugger Gryns kekdoge

#

Like how much damage is the gas doing on Secret hardmode

#

If you can't get into the fan zone

marble bridge
#

i have yet to do it myself

late hatch
#

not everyone is great at the game and i like playing with my friends, even if some of them are pretty bad. elitists are cringe

terse idol
#

I dunnooo same problem as getting hit by multiple pox bursters

marble bridge
terse idol
#

I'm just giving you an argument of why corruption resist isn't goooooooood

marble bridge
#

or help them to get better at the game

hard briar
#

Dude, find friends. Play the diffy you guys can handle.

#

It's why we're having this discussion in the first place

Or just enjoy getting rekt in maelstrom

#

It's a game, just have fun

marble bridge
#

or that

late hatch
terse idol
#

I understand not everyone is great at the game, this is why we just try to stack the best thing for our own sake

#

Which... honestly stacking toughness hard to go wrong

#

😌

marble bridge
#

just go have fun

marble bridge
terse idol
#

Yeah, I mean I hope I wasn't being elitist, it's just a genuine argument I find myself partaking

late hatch
terse idol
marble bridge
#

yea

#

but just do 1 stam curio and then like

terse idol
#

I did, but I realy kinda thought about it and, eh, the safety net on toughness is spiicy

marble bridge
#

3 +5 toughness 3 +cdr and three stam regen

#

with 2 +17% tougness curio

late hatch
#

and my orginal statement was leaning towards corruption res over aother res, which you countered with toughness and regen, which are not res stats

#

but its allg

terse idol
#

I hit that, 3x toughness curio
2x gunner
1x sniper dr
3x stamina regen
3x toughness 😌

terse idol
#

I would point if we're comparing res, to like

#

Just run gunner res

marble bridge
#

personally i think +toughness and whatnot is gonna do more overall than +res to anything

terse idol
#

And a sniper res

#

that will gain more value than corruption res in the long run

#

since heavy gunners are more common

#

and tend to chip away at health much more often than corruption will

late hatch
#

sniper res used to be super valuable, but these days snipers seem to just stare at the roof for 3 seconds while i have time to aim and shoot

terse idol
#

hmm

#

It seems like snipers once you learn how their AI work just kinda get floored

eternal venture
#

You don't actually get hit by snipers all THAT much

terse idol
#

I slow peek corners that I know have a sniper because I know they're gonna take 3 seconds to lock on me

#

Yeah

eternal venture
#

and the alternatives are just more niche or worse

terse idol
#

That's the word, a safety net

eternal venture
#

If burster resistance were a thing, I'd take it over sniper res any day

terse idol
#

The one time you don't see the sniper behind you

eternal venture
#

because getting hit by multiple bursters throughout a match is far more likely to happen than getting sniped

#

and silent bursters are a thing

raw steppe
#

burster res is called hp

#

fyi

marble bridge
#

the most dangerous enemies are flamers and bombers

terse idol
#

Oh sorry

#

read it wrong

eternal venture
#

All good

#

If they rolled fire res into a generic stat

#

instead of splitting it between bomber res and tox flamer res for... some reason

#

that would also be an attractive option

marble bridge
#

ok arguably corr res will help against that

#

bursters that is

eternal venture
#

because it'd protect you against bombers, flamers, barrels

terse idol
#

Just build HP like Dis said

hard briar
#

Someone please tell me I'm not crazy

eternal venture
#

Having more HP will reduce the amount of health that gets filled up by corruption

late hatch
#

yeah idk why they did this. flame resistant clothes should work vs all fire

marble bridge
#

with corr res 3 bursters might just be barely enough to make you not go over a wound with 2 wound

hard briar
#

Wtf discord mobile

marble bridge
#

so instead youd just go down rather than corpse

eternal venture
#

200hp will make the burster fill up roughly one quarter of your total hp

terse idol
#

I mean my honest answer for most people

#

Don't run without 1x wound curio

eternal venture
#

depending on how much toughness you have at the time of impact, if Iron Will is up, etc.

late hatch
#

when you cant use the correct word for something because it contains something some people are sensitive towards staregryn

eternal venture
#

flame redardent

terse idol
#

Just spelled it wrong

#

I did it too

#

"Sensitive towards"

#

Look

#

It's alright

marble bridge
#

space is the most important thing to have in combat because with enough space you can do whatever

eternal venture
#

the area denial is the worst thing about fire

terse idol
#

Truue

eternal venture
#

(that and getting netted into it of course)

#

(or grabbed by a mutie on a fire puddle)

marble bridge
#

i can no hit a c.spawn with enough space (the whole psykanium) and tanner's literally fought over a hundred crushers at the same time in the same arena

quick steeple
marble bridge
#

it only gets dangerous when you dont have space

terse idol
marble bridge
#

yea

terse idol
#

Yes when you have an arena the size of the amphitheater, it's prettyyy easy

marble bridge
#

but any of those in a tiny space and 9/10 times youre just dead

#

also why airlock prep of grenades or flamer brace or trauma circle or whatever is important

#

if the door opens and theres a armour patrol, you wouldnt really have enough time to prep and throw a grenade after that, theyd already be in the airlock

#

but with prep grenades or trauma you just stun them immediately and still keep the space of the airlock and the area outside

wanton dawn
#

I don't use much space against the rager

marble bridge
#

yea, but if youre in a confined space and arent goated at the game it gets harder

wanton dawn
#

Then again, my stupid challenges are never representative of gameplay

wanton dawn
#

Cuz soldier 69 said it made things too ez

#

It did take me 82 tries

marble bridge
#

yea thats the thing

#

if you had a full toolkit (shout and ck) and a fuck ton of space, it gets much easier

wanton dawn
terse idol
#

Honestly the tools make it easier to make wiggle eoom in tight space for sure

nimble sentinel
#

imma keep it 100 with y'all, I don't know shit about optimizing curios

#

I just run toughness health and stam with more dockets for the hadron gacha

wanton dawn
#

You cant go wrong with gunner resist and sniper resist

#

Then you have a lot of stuff that you can justify: just knowing that 99% of the time it is better to stack 3 of the same on each curios

#

Finally, we usually recommend to have at least 1 stam major and to phase out from wound

nimble sentinel
#

neither have been a problem for me

wanton dawn
#

That is besides the point though

nimble sentinel
#

I just like posting cringe you are dropping good advice

wanton dawn
#

both gunner resist and sniper resist are simply the most straightforward: they take an enemy class (or 2) and reduce their efficiency

#

Whereas other enemies resisted are not threatening because of damage

nimble sentinel
#

any perks that should be avoided other than exp?

wanton dawn
#

exp is useless, docket is not for combat efficiency, rez is probably not useful

#

thoughness regen is not great on vet

nimble sentinel
#

oh yeh I mentioned exp cause that's kinda obvi lol

#

probably should phase out my dockets I got plenty at the moment

wanton dawn
#

You can play 3 wounds in auric maelstrom. It will not prevent you from playing

#

Also not saying it is the best choice. Just that it is never a bad one

#

Though arguably, ogryn might ignore sniper resist. Bigger health pool and all

#

Also you should only take advice for ppl that might be a girl

flat vessel
#

anyone know what the prison guard is wearing trying to make him in game he stood out the most for me for some reason

Probably not available IG

Vet cosmetics arent that "subtle" to begin with. Once you get "good" stuff it has paper insigna and stuff dangling around everywhere

lilac eagle
#

I wouldn't bother explaining

bitter turtle
#

but yeah, melee vet is definitely not worse than zealot

lilac eagle
#

The simple fact that melee vet gets bodied by more than 1 rager is enough to make that build fairly uncompetitive.

#

Like I'll play it for fun

bitter turtle
#

sadly melee vet is better than ranged vet rn KEKW_ogryn

lilac eagle
#

Psword yes.

bitter turtle
#

you shouldn't be bodied by ragers then

#

if your'e running optimal

lilac eagle
#

And yet I do

bitter turtle
#

also have voc

#

well

#

i hate to say but it may be

#

skissue

#

melee vet actually has more aspd buffs than zealot so you can push out more dmg

lilac eagle
#

Meanwhile I can literally solo maelstorm hordes of ragers on my zealot

bitter turtle
#

and psword is just a broken do everything weapon

lilac eagle
#

Not even trigger defy death

bitter turtle
#

i mean you might just not be as comfortable on melee vet

eternal sable
#

melee vet is better than melee zealot ey

#

classic

bitter turtle
#

didnt say better

lilac eagle
#

Its just damage + stun difference

bitter turtle
#

also melee vet can abuse bottomless revolver clip

lilac eagle
#

Zealot can effectively stunlock ragers and just murder them before they even start comboing

eternal sable
#

:3

lilac eagle

Meanwhile vet hits like a wet noodle

i like that

I forget I have a gun on zealot brother.

#

I use my tigris chainsword and thats it

bitter turtle
#

ok if ur metric is "you are never allowed to swap" then yeah ig melee vet is worse

lilac eagle
#

Evics + charge = unbeatable melee zealot

bitter turtle
#

since melee vet entire schtick is the swapping keystone for big buffs

lilac eagle
#

My metric isn't, 'you can't swap'

#

My metric is the melee build has to use MELEE for its damage

bitter turtle
#

you do though

lilac eagle
#

Not swap to a pistol when ragers come along

bitter turtle
#

u melee like 70% of the time

lilac eagle
#

If I play vet I'm using my las 80% of the mission

bitter turtle
#

there's a reason wep specialist melee buff is easier to build (1 kill for max buff) vs ranged buff (at least 3 for crit, 10 for rof)

lilac eagle
#

If somethings easier to do its typically the weaker choice

#

Skill shines through in those builds that require you land headspots

idle swallow
#

meta is just a sliding scale of risk to reward with most reward/least risk being the desired result
