There isnt another ability that adds no value to the team, so it checks out

formal quail
#

just had two invis vets on my team just run fast everything to grab all loot

#

past**

rigid pilot
#

Speedrunning 💹

formal quail
#

they were also dropping aggro so everyone would come to us

elder fiber
#

invis vet can save games out of absolute bullshit but it requires having a functioning brain and not mashing the F key because there's 3 poxwalkers in front of you

formal quail
#

thats the only good thing is that nothing aggros you while everyone is dead

#

and thats not good

elder fiber
#

I mean they can res out of crazy stuff with invis + good nade usage but again, brain required

rigid pilot
#

Invis would be cool if it allowed you to phase through enemies but it doesn't

formal quail
#

but if the only thing your ability gives you is to rez peopel while they're downed

#

its not a good ability

dire olive
#

They might not need to Res in the first place if they don't drop their aggro on everyone KEKW_ogryn

formal quail
#

exactly

#

had two guys just invis and run past their mobs, making everyone else deal with fodder they should be dealing with

dire olive
#

The few times I use stealth I at least use it to flank past the fodder so I can kill groups of specials/gunners that are hiding in hard to reach backline areas

formal quail
#

these guys were both using plasma so

#

none of that happening

dire olive
#

So even if everyone gets more fodder they at least don't have to deal with the trapper/flamer

formal quail
#

single target andies

dire olive
#

Yeah plasma just shoot through lmao

gusty bison
#

Nothing says "I cant handle this difficulty" more than a stealth plasma vet

odd sparrow
#

Plasma is so laughbly easy

dire olive
#

If you are solely using stealth as a get out of jail free card you are bad

#

Because VoC is right there

#

With half the cooldown

austere pine
#

is plasma + weapons specialist viable?

trim hemlock
#

Plasma doesn’t really need it, but it’s a solid keystone for empowering your melee, still

winter grove
#

I hate to use and see people use plasma

#

Even the revolver takes some aiming skill man

trim hemlock
#

Both feature the “big boolet” hit box whatthefuck_heresy

#

But the revolver indeed needs the weak spot hits to perform

#

And plasma evaporates basically any unit below bruiser on singular body shots

zealous wyvern
#

i love plasma

#

havent used it once since whenever it got meta

#

dont really know why

#

but i love the handling. its very thematic

exotic spade
#

I wish bolter wasn't so damn clunky. It makes no sense plasma and revolver have zero pull out issues, and the bolter takes forever.

dire olive
#

I just with the firepower made up for it

#

How is a handgun hitting harder than a bolter

gusty bison
#

Not the bolter

#

Volver is overbuffed

inland canopy
gusty bison
inland canopy
#

at this point if you are not bad at aiming

#

volver just works

gusty bison
#

Nah volver works if you are bad at aiming too

#

It has aim assist

inland canopy
#

a well rolled volvered is just good

inland canopy
gusty bison
#

Compared to other precision weapons volver is the easiest one to aim

inland canopy
#

volver has extreme penetration stat

gusty bison
tiny summit
#

Even better. Very generous weakspot hit and penetrates, and most things behind a head are gonna be head height or near too

inland canopy
gusty bison
#

With a screenshot

inland canopy
#

anywho

the game is pretty much meh

#

unless they make other weapons match the corniness of weaposn like volver

gusty bison
#

I mean. Solution. Make the revolver not have aim assist

#

Or a cleave of 5

lost portal
inland canopy
#

cuz even a well rolled kantrael shotgun or heavy blasters till doesn't feel as consisnent as volver

gusty bison
#

Even then it would still be an amazing gun

gusty bison
#

The head is literally double the size

#

Thats why its more consistent

inland canopy
gusty bison
#

shrug

Id say you are in the minority

inland canopy
#

there was a time kantrael shotgun felt like the best shotgun

#

and then they nerfed that

lost portal
#

Rightfully so

#

It’s still good

gusty bison
#

Kantrael's nerf was so it couldnt shoot through entire walls

#

Lmao

#

It was a bugfix

#

Not a nerf

inland canopy
#

kantrael las rifle is very good, but its still a spam gun that miss half of the tiime

im not here to waste my time with a gun that fires like Fallout New Vegas guns

#

fuck off with that sound

tiny summit
#

Shotguns still feel underwhelming. I like em but eh they don't feel that great

gusty bison
#

Thry are ok

#

But their power is in thr special shot

inland canopy
#

call me lazy but i don't want to shoot 5 shots to get a shot in or aim for 1.5s then i should

gusty bison
#

The primary fire is ass

tiny summit
#

Which is more accurate to say. "Underwhelming" to our OP shit

delicate estuary

#

Fatshark managing to make hipfiring a shotgun feel like ass

gusty bison

gusty bison
#

Cos most of them are pretty snappy

inland canopy
#

on auric i don't have time to have a gun have shitty spread or shoot twice to kill a scab

#

so i stick to revolver

#

otherwise i'd be just meleeing

gusty bison
#

The guns that need to shoot twicr to kill a scab gunner are all full auto guns

#

Every semi auto 1 shots a scab gunner

#

Except maybe MG 4

delicate estuary
gusty bison
#

1a can 1 shot with the right build iirc

tiny summit

1a can 1 tap

#

Mate
. Have you consider that’s there’s a REASON they got nerfed

gusty bison
gusty bison
#

Soooo no. None of these guns satisfies your criteria

inland canopy
#

and make everyone cry

gusty bison
#

No one is gonna cry about volver nerf lol

inland canopy
#

all in all i'd just stop playing the game

gusty bison
#

Or well

#

Most people wont

inland canopy
#

simple solution

gusty bison
#

Volver is a dumb gun

#

And should be brought in line

inland canopy
#

cuz zealot knife is a special killer

lost portal
gusty bison
#

Lmao

inland canopy
gusty bison
#

Knife is nothing compared to laspistol

gusty bison
#

Imagine not being hitscan

#

And not getting 40% toughness

#

And having basically unlimited shots

#

Like if u think throwing knives is a better special killer than 80% of vet's guns then the problem is you

#

Granted its not bad

delicate estuary
#

throwing knives not having the ability to go through enemies 💀

#

cant run knives man

#

feels like I dont have a blitz

gusty bison
serene bough
#

Knife blitz is good for some builds I guess but it's no secondary weapon replacement

#

Don't know anything about zealot builds

gusty bison
#

Zealot likes knives cos a lot of their precision guns cant hit the elite killer breakpoints

delicate estuary
#

now I am confused

gusty bison
#

And cos there is the bug where u can get uncanny strike on the knives so they murder crushers

delicate estuary
#

what knives are you talking about

gusty bison
#

Throwing knives

serene bough
gusty bison
#

Theres the same bug that lets helbore bayo get BM

#

U can get US on thrown knives if its on ur melee and u have stacks active

delicate estuary
#

nah

#

I refuse

#

just kill the elites with your melee and move on

last parcel
neon estuary
#

finally got sunder for my power sword! >:3

gusty bison
#

Ye but they didnt fix US on thrown knives iirc

neon estuary
#

i wonder whats the best perks for the power sword?

delicate estuary
#

BM PC

#

I am not a sunder enjoyer

gusty bison
#

Perks

delicate estuary
#

oh mb

#

you have another 3 people to help you deal with bulwarks so not sure what the purpose of sunder is

gusty bison
#

Also grenades

#

Bulwark wall = 2 frags

delicate estuary
#

eh I wouldnt grenade bullwarks

neon estuary
#

well i know the power sword's purpose and that is cleving crowded enemies

delicate estuary
#

if I have a couple on me I just wait for them to swing

#

and then you can stagger them with headshots to death

#

and if your are surrounded by 6 bullwarks then its a positioning issue or the team is dead

#

so its whatever

delicate estuary
neon estuary
#

ok but with power cycler, i can cleave faster

gusty bison
#

Why not boff

delicate estuary
#

not to mention that BM PC gives you better armor damage

#

which is more needed on average since people dont know how to handle 6 crushers at once

neon estuary
#

dont have to worry about armor damage because i have krak grenades

flint lake
terse idol
delicate estuary
neon estuary
#

whats that suppose to mean?

delicate estuary
terse idol
#

Okay I'll roll it back

flint lake
#

Kraks can be fun but they lack the versatility of frag nades for sure

delicate estuary
terse idol
#

Wake up, see grenade talk

#

Go back to sleep

#

😌

delicate estuary
neon estuary
#

its just an anti tank grenade, i only use them against carapace targets and big monsters

terse idol
#

That's fair

delicate estuary
#

a lot can happen in 3 minutes of time waiting for grenades to refill

shadow aurora
#

3 minutes?

serene bough
#

ill take kraks if my weapons are not sufficient enough to deal with armor

#

sometimes you just got a build thatneeds a little extra armor killing potential

terse idol
delicate estuary
# shadow aurora 3 minutes?

if you are spamming nades without thinking I assume you take nade regen which is 1 every 60 seconds if I remember correctly

tiny summit
#

Demo team the goat

flint lake
delicate estuary
#

yea so if you yeet all 3 nades in a 6 crusher swarm you will have to wait 3 minutes for a full refill

#

I personally dont enjoy sitting on 1 grenade so I dont consider that a good state

serene bough
#

i wouldn't yeet all 3 grenades into 6 crushers

serene bough
#

get them to clump up and toss one, maybe two

woeful ibex
#

but May 25 is skull thrones

#

I think Big update coming up

serene bough
#

kraks aren't really for burning down crushers as soon as you see them but moreso being able to remove them from the fight when you or your team can't kill them quick enough

delicate estuary
woeful ibex
#

yeah

delicate estuary
#

and I am using shredders always

#

cause they are just better

woeful ibex
#

Kill them immediatly than being surrounded by them

#

They're pain to deal with + hoardes

shadow aurora
#

Three if your solo which you shouldnt be usually

delicate estuary
gusty bison
#

Which ends up to around 1 every 20-30s

#

Which is a lot of nades

shadow aurora
#

I have my teamates getting like trapped one or twice a game

delicate estuary
shadow aurora
#

Get better teamateswhatthefuck_heresy

delicate estuary
#

ahh yes relying on teammates

#

surely that will go well

serene bough
#

i mean if you have a cluster of crushers and get them to bait their attackson you, you're able to kill 3 crushers with a single krak

shadow aurora
#

I literally play on randos and i consistently have players who can dodge nets

serene bough
#

I personally would run a melee weapon that could deal with armor so I would definitely not advise wasting all 3 grenades into a single pack of crushers

delicate estuary
delicate estuary
serene bough
#

im not discussing shredders im discussing kraks

gusty bison
delicate estuary
#

its about having the space to dodge

shadow aurora
#

Dodge/avoid/kill i more meant that rarely is anyone getting caught

#

Luck issue

delicate estuary
gusty bison
#

So

#

We now discuss

#

smokes

shadow aurora
#

No

delicate estuary
#

smokes best

#

yes

#

its how you kill smikers

serene bough
#

vape god vet is funny, but shredders are still better

shadow aurora
#

Trolling

terse idol
#

Smokes are pretty good now

#

I think...

serene bough
#

blind an entire pack of gunners and shoot through smoke or kill all gunners w/ 2 shredders

delicate estuary
# gusty bison ***smokes***

you go invis ability on vet with smokes -> bait 6 crushers into you and lead them to the smiker then smoke and go invis yourself to reset aggro -> watch chaos ensue

terse idol
#

used 2 shredders

#

Well wait

shadow aurora
#

Its too much work to get them to work when you can just take a shredder or krak

terse idol
#

Tou proved that smoke is better

neon estuary
#

oh wait a minute, my question about whats the best perks for a power sword hasn't been answered

terse idol
#

I'm kidding

#

I think it's a fine option now

delicate estuary
serene bough
#

smokes can work, I just don't see why people wouldn't favor a strategy of outright killing the enemy

gusty bison
#

Does flak even do anything for psword?

terse idol
shadow aurora
#

Personally id take unyielding and carapace on psword

neon estuary
#

does most of every weapon's perks had to be flak and manic?

terse idol
#

And krak suffers in gunner rooms

serene bough
#

maniac is always a safe bet but not always a requirement

gusty bison
#

Its just what people default to when they dont wanna bother testing for specific BPs

timid otter
serene bough
#

I doubt flak matters much on PS

terse idol
#

Flak isn't always required depending

delicate estuary
#

does for maulers

terse idol
#

Sometimes cara

delicate estuary
#

if you dont run carapace

serene bough
#

id probably run cara + maniac for ragers, maulers, and crushers

#

but i dont use the PS often

neon estuary
#

idk if a mauler is an elite or a manic

delicate estuary
#

elite

neon estuary
#

fair enough

serene bough
#

carapace on the head, flak on the body

delicate estuary
#

maniac is mostly for stinky ragers

shadow aurora
delicate estuary
neon estuary
#

also flamers and trappers also count as manics i believe....

gusty bison
#

Well u dont need +maniac for those

#

They paper

delicate estuary
#

stinky ragers

serene bough
#

yeah maniac is only for ragers and i guess mutants

#

but mutants are so easy to deal witheven without the perk

gusty bison
#

Boop da snoot

terse idol
timid otter
#

Maniac is good on ps6

#

and make no mistake, clusters of ragers are definitely something you'd want extra damage against

terse idol
#

😌

midnight totem
serene bough
#

yea but flamers fold like wet paper bc they take x3 melee damage

gusty bison
#

Exec imho shouldnt die when swapping to melee

terse idol
#

Why they make scab flamers maniac and not flak

#

FS pls

delicate estuary
midnight totem
#

Because they don't wear flak, because they're maniacs

terse idol

It has to be a bug or an oversight it's so weird

wish the two flamers had different functions

stiff glacier
#

Shes a paint thinner sniffer

serene bough
#

theres just 2 distinct flamers because...?

delicate estuary
#

therefore

#

1+1 = 2

midnight totem
#

To piss us off I guess

serene bough
#

but even the different factions have different behaviors

terse idol
#

To be fair ragers function the same

delicate estuary
#

different behaviors ?

#

what do you mean

gusty bison
terse idol
#

Literally reskinned

serene bough
#

scab vs dreg gunners for example

delicate estuary
#

they both shoot at you, they both melee you, they both want to shove nurgles beast up your ass

#

what is there that is different

serene bough
#

some run upto you and close distance whereas others take cover and shoot from cover at a distance

terse idol
serene bough
#

(the common gunners not the elites)

delicate estuary
#

both factions sit behind cover

lost portal
delicate estuary
#

both factions run at you

terse idol
#

Scab stalkers technically like shoot closer and faster?

delicate estuary
#

the only difference is the stinky ragers

terse idol
#

The scab Rangers, the guys with green eyes do tend to be more accurate

delicate estuary
#

and the one faction not having maulers

serene bough
#

stalkers approach melee more often, dregs are mid range who take cover w/ some melee capability, scab shooters are the weakest in melee and try to stay as far away as possible

terse idol
#

And dredges only have 1 flavour of regular gunner

serene bough
#

the point is it would be cool if the flamers had different behaviors as well

#

since there's already 2 distinct models

terse idol
#

Just make the dredge flamerr deal alot of orruption damage

serene bough
#

hell even pox vs groaners are different

midnight totem
#

Let's not

gusty bison

ragers and gunner elites are not, i guess

Question

#

Thoughts on the helbourge lasguns?

gusty bison
#

But hard to learn

delicate estuary
#

they are not hard

#

just annoying

gusty bison
#

One of the better vet guns as well if we dont count the OP trio

gusty bison
cursive relic
#

I tried the mark 2 helbourge

#

Prolly my fave

#

Just need the charge speed to have the highest stats

broken palm

Is deadeye veteran good again or does it still suck?

gusty bison
cursive relic
#

Deadeye vet?

gusty bison
#

Or deadeye as in deadshot

broken palm
#

Executioners stance

gusty bison
#

Still the worst ability of the 3. Mostly cos most guns dont benefit from it effectively

broken palm
#

FML all I wanna do is just play my old veteran lol

gusty bison
#

The main thing really is just

#

Press F to highlight enemies is...

#

Not very impactful

#

Not when u can just tag to highlight them

cursive relic
#

Wait exec stance doesnt increase range dmg or something?

gusty bison
#

The damage would be useful if all the precision guns didnt already one shot

gusty bison
cursive relic
#

Fair enough

#

But it does help against crushers

#

Well for me

#

And tht tiny zoom is what I need to compensate for the ironsights

idle swallow
#

I like it on me boltgun cuz the bonus dmg lets me one shot bodyshot gunners/shotgunners a lot more consistently

cursive relic
#

Also thoughts on the infiltrate?

#

I just use like zealot’s shroudfield

#

Though from what I heard, its hella versatile

#

More than using it as a means to dmg boost

elder fiber
#

It's worse cooldown and the dmg bonuses aren't anywhere near zealot's so it's better saved for utility purposes imo

gusty bison
#

And all the semi autos can hit their major BPs without exec

gusty bison
#

Otherwise... not much benefits

#

Fuck asking questions in the discord (no disrespect). Experiment.

#

#

Ignorance is strength and I'm very strong 😎

cursive relic
#

Ehh just curious on people’s thoughts on it

#

Infiltrate’s possibly my fave

#

Actually no cant decide

slow spade
#

Infiltrate is a lot of cost for less output in my eyes

#

Mostly due to the talent pathing being shit

cursive relic
#

I use it more as a support util

#

Making sure nothing goes down to hell

#

And the path is like

#

Melee-specific

eternal sable
#

I'm still getting silent bursters and also have you noticed that snipers spawn in 3's now

I noticed a lot of snipers but bursters haven't been too bad

agile forge
#

Could somebody critique my left-side CIAG build for me please?

#

This is currently PS6 and CIAG

#

My other build is more serious plasma shit but I want an excuse to run MF

#

and something that's not VoC

#

trying to get past my anxiety of OH GOD TOO MANY NODES I normally feel when I look at the vet tree

atomic zephyr
#

honestly looks pretty good

#

pretty similar to what i run

agile forge
#

Any tweaks to it you'd make?

#

I wanted to run Krak initially but couldn't budget it in

#

since I won't grief by not taking survivalist aura lol

#

I'm not sure if I need suppression immunity

slow spade
#

Left node is useless

#

Right node lets you duel shooters while regenning toughness

#

It also lets you regen toughness while alone

#

So you can loot plasteel in "relative" safety

agile forge
#

Fixed it, thank you

slow spade
#

Np comrade

agile forge
#

Is the bottom-of-tree stuff all correct?

#

It seems bizarre that they give MF a modifier that gives +10 rending conditionally

#

but in the middle leg there's just a flat +10 rending all the time

slow spade
#

Looks fine to me, I know suppression reduces your accuracy + increases sway

#

So its sus but Exec stance should cover

agile forge
#

Does Executioner's Stance mitigate suppression effectively then?

#

I haven't used it since it was Volley Fire

#

Veteran's my least played because frankly the talent tree scares the shit out of me

slow spade
agile forge
#

and LoL always made me terrified of playing suboptimally in case my team judges me for it lol

slow spade
agile forge
#

ok, that's good enough

slow spade
#

Yeah basically you can ignore it

agile forge
#

How many stamina curios should I take with a deadshot CIAG?

slow spade
#

Only stuff like Helbore feel it

agile forge
#

since it gobbles up your stamina in seconds

slow spade
#

1 is less consistent but safer

#

2 is glass cannon

agile forge
#

hm, that stamina delay node might be more worthwhile than tdr

#

should I take it?

slow spade
#

You can also replace your 10% toughness resist node for stam delay

agile forge
#

that's a yes then :)

#

I want this to feel as shooty as my gun psyker

slow spade
#

I personally would because you don't have Focus Target or Duck and Dive

agile forge
#

since that's spoiled me for veteran

slow spade
agile forge
#

but gunker's dps comes in bursts with SG

#

which is less consistent than ES can be I think

slow spade
gusty bison
#

You also dont need 8k dps tbf

#

6k is ample

agile forge
#

So long as I can rest my gun sights around head height in a corridor and create a small scale exterminatus I'm happy

#

Thank you all for the help :)

slow spade
#

Np make sure you don't die UwU

Also don't lose your habit of peril control :p

lunar tendon
#

Should i make a veteran?

#

never really gotton into em properly

gusty bison
lunar tendon
gusty bison
#

Vet requires the least ammo of all the classes

agile forge
#

Veteran generates ammo for the whole team including themselves

#

and has some great melee options too

gusty bison
#

As for the other concern, im not a mindreader so you have to figure that out yourself

agile forge
#

you also generate grenades for yourself

#

The only tricky part is not getting intimidated by the wall of talent points

slow spade
#

Vet is the least ammo dependent due to regen and strong melee options

agile forge
#

tbf, psyker with staff is the least ammo dependent

# broken palm Is deadeye veteran good again or does it still suck?

Its good its just VOC is broken in what it offers. It benefits weapons like infantry lasguns, hellbores, bolter, plasma, revolver. Pretty much anything that isnt full auto since you want to pair deadshot with it. You can run Colomnus with exe stance but its eh imo. Main problem is that you need to learn positioning compared to VOC

Yeah I see people farming kills

#

Its weird and delays everything

timid otter
#

I vary my pace in missions from class to class.

#

Psykers genuinely need to be way more afarid of what is coming from behind.

delicate estuary
#

and sadly my opinion regarding psyker is completely obscured cause I only use surge staff

#

so I play psyker on easy

#

cause there is no interesting options in the talent tree

timid otter
#

I dont even bother with pubs by this point.

#

Its either solo or vc.

delicate estuary
#

and solo doesnt allow for any fun combinations

timid otter
#

Ye but i dont have to deal with frusrating pub players in solo

#

Its just me, the bots.

agile forge
#

Idk, I love the different options for psyker

#

I have more build diversity on psyker personally than I do on my other classes

delicate estuary
#

I mean dont think many options beat venting shriek soulblaze

tiny summit
#

When the team is farming out the extract kills...

agile forge
#

Scrier's Gaze/Disrupt Destiny for guns

#

Tbf I use shriek for 3/5 of my builds

delicate estuary
#

which is not something I want to do

agile forge
#

I use assail for that

#

and illisi

delicate estuary
#

force swords xd

#

like I said

agile forge
#

My gun is mostly only for super high pressure

delicate estuary
#

I have tried most psyker stuff

#

for me nothing compares

agile forge
#

Yeah, psykers have like 3 melee weapon options because the others are much less good tbf

#

Deimos, Illisi, Duelling Sword IV

delicate estuary
#

and you only want to use a force sword

agile forge
#

but still

delicate estuary
#

to abuse the bug

#

so its whatever

agile forge
#

nah, duelling sword IV is great too

#

and you can use a rashad like everybody else too

delicate estuary
#

no I mean the only reason to use a force sword is to abuse the bug

#

I only use mk4 duelling regardless

agile forge
delicate estuary
agile forge
#

Deimos for deflector and mutant one-shots

#

Illisi is crazy strong

#

Duelling Sword also for one-shotting things with more fluidity than deimos

agile forge
delicate estuary
#

duelling sword just provides something that force swords will never provide which is mobility

#

which is far more important

#

than taking a blessing slot to deflect ranged attacks

agile forge
#

Yeah, tbh, the deflector thing is a subjective thing

#

it's also good for the pushy stuff

delicate estuary
#

deflector should have been baked into the sword

agile forge
#

but again

#

in what world are force swords bad?

#

illisi doesn't compete with DS4, it's a totally different niche

delicate estuary
#

for my playstyle they are bad

#

if I have to pull out my melee I am either in a bad position or my team is dead

rancid ginkgo
#

brunt banger?

delicate estuary
#

like I said I only spam surge

agile forge
delicate estuary
#

I only play brain burst, venting shriek, soulblaze, mk4 and surge staff

#

the other options just dont compare for me

tiny summit
agile forge
#

You know what, that's fine, you do you

#

I take psyker stuff very personally I guess

#

which is on me

rancid ginkgo
tiny summit
#

Any other gun will carry you farther than them atm

agile forge
#

There's nothing in this game quite like trauma or voidstrike imo

delicate estuary
rancid ginkgo
delicate estuary
#

but you will never be using it as your main weapon

tiny summit
#

Didn't like voidstrike at first because I built nexus/surge. Built a transfer peril/flurry and now I actually like it

high sierra
#

I have never for the life of me ever reached a keystone with vet

agile forge

surge is the one staff I don't really use lol

tiny summit
rancid ginkgo

Yeah

tiny summit
#

For psyker right now it's either purgatus and chill or gunker

high sierra
#

It's actually a bit better now, just don't mind the keystones.

Gonna say it, but if you're running VOC you're not doing no keystones rightvchadgryn

Voc is practically it's own keystone

high sierra
#

Bleed nades are the true vet keystone

delicate estuary
#

need to make it a 60 second cooldown

#

like kruber

Having it regen , and 3 nades is plenty.

I wish you could stack marksman’s focus with weakspot hits as well

coral bloom

with no nade regen

tiny summit
#

Not even. DS4 will like 3-4 poke crushers to death

delicate estuary
#

the real chad move

terse idol
#

That would make MF pretty alright vs bosses

tiny summit
#

All the regen I need baby

delicate estuary
#

requires you to be in coherency with your team

#

and I am never in coherency

terse idol
#

I kinda wished exe had a side talent that extended the duration if you hit bosses

#

makes automatic weapons even better for exe
woops

tiny summit
#

5% chance in auric feels like guaranteed in auric for me. Since it's either me or my team. Unlike comp urge that requires my team to give me a buff randomly

delicate estuary
terse idol
#

Well comp urge is more consistent because it's all kills

#

At any range

#

For your entire ream

#

2.5% seems very consistent

delicate estuary
#

I am never in coherency cause once I am done with specials/disablers

#

I just dip to go loot

slow spade
#

2.5% -> 25% ez fix

slow spade
delicate estuary
#

I dont chase stats anymore

#

only plasteel

slow spade
#

The 5% toughness regen when no enemies nearby is just better Loner aura

tiny summit
tall torrent
#

In an avg auric HiSTG where your team has 300 elite/special kills combined, you’ll gain 15 grenades from demo team

In an avg auric HiSTG where your team kills 2000 enemies, you’ll gain 400s (6 mins 40s) of comp urge uptime

delicate estuary
#

5% toughness when no enemies nearby feels like such a garbage talent

slow spade
delicate estuary
#

what was the alternative remind me again

delicate estuary
slow spade
#

When you hit 0% toughness, gain stam, no stun, and no stagger

tall torrent
delicate estuary
#

and there is never enough shit when alone to justify it

tiny summit
#

Plenty of times in aurics you actually don't have enemies disabling it

delicate estuary
#

most of the time choose it over

#

the other

tall torrent
#

It’s alright but usually not as good as catch a breath

slow spade
#

Its ok to take by virtue of the alternative being shit

tall torrent
#

8m is shorter than u think

tiny summit
#

5% constant toughness regen also means constant toughness regen while being shot at

delicate estuary
#

I just dont see the purpose of the other

slow spade
delicate estuary
#

lets assume you take toughness damage from a damage source that is 8 meters further than you

#

what is the damage source

slow spade
delicate estuary
#

yea exactly

#

and what do you do when you see multiple guns

slow spade
#

Which you then start regenning

delicate estuary
#

you slide

tall torrent
#

Taking ranged dmg doesn’t pause Catch a Breath btw

delicate estuary
#

and what happens when you slide

slow spade
tiny summit
#

And I can safely shoot an enemy while regening toughness...

delicate estuary
#

also does the 5% apply on your base toughness

#

or total

tall torrent
#

Total

slow spade
#

Used to be base

#

But patch 13 I think?

tall torrent
#

If you build 180 toughness that’s 9/s

delicate estuary
#

yea was gonna say its 10 per second

#

hmm

slow spade
#

And it stacks with coherency

#

But eh

delicate estuary
#

dunno dont find it useful for ranged enemies cause I run exe stance

tall torrent
#

In most situations it’s better than GBITF

slow spade
#

Lets you regen more while shooting

delicate estuary
#

from ranged enemies

slow spade
#

Bruh

delicate estuary
#

if I have to clear a room of ranged enemies team is nearby to give me coherency regen

#

so dunno what to tell you

tall torrent
#

Coherency regen also pauses from getting shot at

#

Catch a breath doesn’t

delicate estuary
#

could be cause I am running exhilarating takedown

#

and go for headshots on anything that gets highlighted or doesnt for that matter

#

I prefer the other option usually cause of deadshot

#

in case I autopilot/tunnelvision for a moment and forget I am about to get swarmed

#

and have no stamina to work with

bitter turtle
#

Honest to god

tall torrent
#

If GBITF had a shorter cooldown I’d prob consider it more

bitter turtle
#

I don't think I have ever noticed get back in the fight

delicate estuary
#

especially when I underestimate rager swarms

tall torrent
#

If marksman focus could stack with weakspot hits I’d definitely consider it more

delicate estuary
#

allowed me plenty of times to bounce back

slow spade
#

I never get 0 toughness

#

I always die before 0 toughness

delicate estuary
tall torrent
#

That’s the firerate of MG12

#

So you can’t stack it faster than MG12 can

delicate estuary
#

fair point

slow spade
#

Oh I like that idea

tiny summit
#

What does the graia brauto braced fire rate look like with max WS stacks?

slow spade
#

Would be neat

tall torrent
delicate estuary
#

all this DT talk making me want to play DT

#

but then I remember

#

I have to loot everything by myself

#

and I cba

tall torrent
# slow spade Would be neat

Allowing weakspot hit to stack would prob also take a lot of the frustration away from the movement penalties

Why do you only play solo?

Randoms in this game are mostly quite nice

delicate estuary
tall torrent
delicate estuary
#

when I have to average 400-600 plasteel per game

slow spade
#

Randoms are bad at looting

delicate estuary
#

it gets to my nerves

slow spade
#

I actually contemplate if speed aura is better than survivalist with how long I spend away from allies

delicate estuary
#

I could probably just do it in normal damnation but there is no fun in that

white minnow
#

well it's a tradeoff for whether you want uptime in situations where you can't get kills and getting higher value in situations where you indeed can get kills

tall torrent
#

For sniper style weapons, camo might be debatably better than LRA

#

But for most weapons that marksman’s focus works best with (ironically none of them are really “marksman” weapons)

#

LRA is the better pick

white minnow
#

yes i'm not arguing which is the better pick

tall torrent
#

You get to maintain 8~10 stacks fairly comfortably

white minnow
#

i'm saying that if you want uptime in situations where you can't get kills, there's camo

#

make the tradeoff or don't

tall torrent
#

Still doesn’t feel intuitive to play tho

tiny summit
#

Laspistol and MF is nice since hipfire is accurate and you're just constantly blasting heads

tall torrent
#

Should just have weakspot hit stacking

slow spade
white minnow
#

it stacking based on time isn't inherently bad

slow spade
#

It feels better to use :c

white minnow
#

and it's like one of the few "do X thing to get Y buff" things

tiny summit
#

I will choose camo at all times since I need kills to get any stacks otherwise. I want some stacks when I have the 1% time I get the perfect angle to give the BoN backshots

white minnow
#

sure they could make MF's economy smoother, but it seems pretty fine to me

tiny summit
white minnow
#

if you want to annihilate non-boss stuff, there'a LRA
and if you want a smoother economy, there's camo

literally asking me what am I doing

while the plasteel popup was going up

bitter turtle

Ya that happened to me a couple times

#

After they abandoned like 3 crates

delicate estuary
#

and the problem is right

#

if I see people opening crates I can relax

#

but if I see them go past stuff or not even bothering to explore

#

I just get paranoid and check everything

bitter turtle
#

Nevermind plas they leave medkits half the time

slow spade

God yeah I had a team skip past med stims

I had a person skip past plasteel stack right inf ront of them

Getting a very viable weapon is fairly easy (with the roll auto trash mod). Its just compounded when trying to get a new weapon that you dont even have blessings for.

For a "raid" mode

delicate estuary

it shouldnt be

delicate estuary

there should be a queue system for that

instead of having ot ring bells

and get others on board

Many games with mods like this don't have it

I will say queueing for secret hardmode will be

Pretty rough

Considering the pubs

delicate estuary

"secret"

nothing was secret

especially not anymore

terse idol

It was a secret because unless you knew what the bells did

delicate estuary

there should be a queue system for those types of things

entire difficulty of the game is pubs

and you are forcing a premade system

And secret hard mode queue is just gonna be pub hell

But that's a valid critisim

yes thats the point

people that want to premade can do premades
