Yea that's my problem with orthus offensive. It's either I'm GOING to do Orthus Offensive or I could just hit quickplay for anything on the board
No it does not
thx
yea plasma is hipfire only
Yeah really a shame :c
Tried to hide behind cover to cover from a gunner squad
Pain
I am told the twins mission is a good way to farm gold weapons... but i've yet to give it a try
Technically yes
Because its the fastest
But needs teams that can actually handle them
Ah, i see... i do 90% of my games as quick-play and dont really have a lot of people i can reliably squad up with... (hence why all my operatives use an "all rounder" type of build)
Its easy but not efficient
yes but u need good teams to speedrun
it's a decent way to farm for blessings ig?
if u don't yet have a lot of blessings for a class
looks at my zealot and ogryn
you dont buy weapons with dockets
you gamble dockets for a chance of good weapons
:c
Brunt trying to sell me this, i presume the 69% on the first target stat is low and the weapon isn't all that good?
also, munitorum mk 6 powered butter-knife
Stats are fine, infested isn't
Poxwalker cleaving shovel
yes
first target is very important
Got helbore mk3 trancendent from drop. Gonna try it out
Not the worst but I typically save my resources for better stat lines when buying/upgrading. Nothing feels worse than upgrading a weapon, getting what you want, and then finding out that you're cuckled out of breakpoints by slightly suboptimal stats
Also nice
be me
havent played in a month
log in
smash auric malstrom, all melee no ammo mode
exit game

Like how I upgraded the heck out of this without realizing that it's finess stat being 74% meant that my heavy attack swing was Just slow enough that i couldn't reliably do the normal horde clearing combo unless the hode was already staggered a bit
Okay soldiers, max fire rate build
brrrrrrrrtttttt?
What do I spec
well, one sec ill have to relog and review, but u want wepon specialist
blue color lazgun
and celerity stim
with uhhhh the perk so laz wepons dont use ammo on crit
the recon laz that is
Hmm thought graiar had a higher fire rate
behold
i think the blue laz recon is fastest
i cant fully remember
It is
Oh
But recon isn't good as I heard
its not, but this is a goof bulid
It’s a pea shooter
So I might opt for live rounds
weapon specalist inc fire rate, celerity inc fire rate
Like I really hoped at least heavy recon is good
i think as goofy as it would be, that they should double down on what it does
The damage is poor but it barely moves
Which lasgun isn't a beam weapon
Beam as in constant laser stream
They're all doing quite bad currently, the 6d is the least bad if you take both rending talents.
Like Zaria
O
recon is only constant, other is semi or charge
Or the beam staff from vermintide
but i raise you this
uwu fire rate dumb if you can just well....
if ur doing a goof with recon, might as well also take all grenade skills
actually had someone ask me why i wasnt running grenade regen, on the auric malestrom all melee no ammo mode lol
id personally reccomed shreddr with recon
God I love crack grenades
Free crack every minute
They're quite addictive
usually if i have something thats poor vs armor i just whip out this bad boy
I’m a brace gun/chain axe enjoyer
i dislike braced
Missing out tbh
simply because i enjoy my head shots
i love, accurate, high dmg one taps
thats based on ur ability to aim
Lasguns
I simply love watching it tear hordes open like a lawnmower
Hibeast your what?
i use the uhhhh headhunter and agri shotgun, or if all armor no ammo ill use handcannon
My spelling sucks
agri shotgun is def my fav
Revolver or flamer, I’m not debating this
Revolver, plasma, and vraks 7 are doing that better currently
Emperorsbullets goated
i will say, lazgun the uhhh charged one, does better vs armor
the helbore
You don't say
One is called headhunter rifle
And other two are part of op trio
Also you do need to headshot with plasma
Plasma is ass in its current state
Better off using krack or bolt gun
Might need to rework the thing
It does, 60% carapace pen for charged shots on 1/2 and 80% on the 3. Strangely I tested it out not too long ago and a vraks 7 with surgical/deadly does comparable dps to a helbore with surgical/onslaught on crusher heads.
Helbore has the caveat of having the very poor pullout
Although you can build it for bayonet use
With correct build you don't have to switch off helbore at all
I know, although that did get a mechanical nerf recently
With the exclusion of melee blessings from your actual melee weapon affecting it
That apparently goofed some one shot breakpoints
Plasma is unironically the strongest gun in the game currently 
I prefer the "basically a cannon that fires explosive balls" version of plasma
Your reward is killing most things in 1-2 shots.
While going ammo neutral
Because you can one tap most things with light headshots on a proper setup
Multiple things actually, because it pens so well
Nah, give the Boltgun 2x Ammo and 5 more mag capacity.
ready time on the bolter is glacial
Not that the Plasma is any better on that front.
played a few plasma games, switched to a bolter build and just couldn't get the space to use it the way I would a plasma
the delay between thinking "I want to remove that" and blam feels about twice as long
right, wtf do I get hadron to do with this
Replace Barrage
And replace unarmored imo unless you really hate snipers and dreg gunners
Probably flak but maniac is my go-to
Idk what blessings the auto has but anything is better than barrage
Replace Barrage for a different blessing, and Unarmored for Manic or Flak
Other than that. It's a decent rifle
Indeed, one of the best stat spreads you could ask for
yeah, pretty fortunate finding it in the shop and hadron not completely bricking it from grey
The Emperor provides 💪
I think maniac over flak. Only rank 3+ blessing I have unlocked is Fire Frenzy III so I may hold off on replacing barrage until I have something good in rank IV.
Quite literally any blessing is better than barrage
^
As most melee enemies ignore suppression
Also you can always flip flop between perks
So if shotgunners are pissing you off, boom flak damage
Any thing you do change by Hadron can be changed a unlimited number of times
It does cost up to 150 plasteel each time so watch your wallet
oh cool, I assumed the 2 changes max was a set in stone sort of deal
But it's not like you're gonna be changing after every mission I hope
the more you know
Yeah its just not recommended due to the relatively high plasteel cost
A perfect run for plasteel maxes at around 880 plasteel 😔
I'm already feeling the plasteel pain for sure
It flip flops from docket pain to plasteel pain 😎
Plasteel hell just sucks when you want to build your collection of weapons
Docket hell sucks as well if Brunt decides to give you the best sub 350 weapons he has
I don't play brunt roulette, seems like a big mistake
I only play if I really want a weapon, but the shop never has it in rotation
my own abilities are the limiting factor regardless of whether my weapon is +/- 2% efficient
Which is 8/10 times when I need a certain staff as Psyker 
Too busy gambling 😎
nice 😎
Some weapons are VERY high cost to get their best performance
Like the Rashad and Revolver
Yeah
I didn't post the cost for a reason...
Also Nice auto gun BTW
It cost me about 800k 💪
A nice chunk to the wallet
For context, 800k is about 20 hours of normal damnation runs 😎
These are some of my personal weapons. I spent a little too much on getting as close to perfect as possible
You should replace the crit damage as it actually provides little damage due to how crits work
Though revolver does have a high crit multiplier 🤔
Nice
What would you recommend?
Weakspot damage works in the same scuffed way as crit damage, just fyi. Flat damage perks are generally much better with very few exceptions. You could take flak (if it gets you headshot or even bodyshot breakpoints) or carapace.
I personally put carapace as my revolver needs 3 shots to kill without it
But unyielding can help vs bosses
I wouldn't take out the revolver for boss damage, personally
True but juicy headshots 😩
I'll take weakspot since I tend to aim for headshots when I use the revolver
Weak spots is the same issue lol
Why Rashad?
Didn't use the material yet
Crit and weak spot is based off a different damage stat
So its not the funny "500 base damage" the revolver has
I'll take Flak for now since it'll cover most common enemy types
To be specific, they only apply to the bonus damage of a crit or weakspot hit. So if you hit for 100, and crit for 110, you will get 1 extra damage from a 10% weakspot perk.
Noted.
For max performance like 1-shotting ragers, it needs minimum like 70 in 4 out of 5 of its stats
Wouldn't have used ragers as an example, it's the bruiser breakpoints that are the most important
Because brudal
Isn't that one covered with +10% melee node?
Rashad has funny damage + vet has the highest damage boosts of any class
Ah
Laughs in psyker finesse bonuses.
You can alleviate the stat requirements with the melee nodes yes but
THE most important breakpoints for rashad are bruisers on lights
Because if you don't one shot them, your cleave stops
Scab only though right? I'm skeptical that you could 1 shot dreg rager unless you do a super niche rolled ax
Which is weird as weakspot damage is shit
Ah so like dreg bruisers get oneshot with BM4 and good stats?
Ah I see what you mean now
The real problem is that psyker is just squishy and bad at closing distances to begin with
You can reach both dreg and scab bruiser weak spot one shots on a rashad, which is definitely what you want to do and why building a good rashad is hard.
That and other things like 2 hit killing bulwarks
No more infinite dodge
Pain...
Doinking elites with it is icing on the cake largely
No more crab shuffling across long bridges
I remember people using 3rd person mods to speedrun missions as psyker lol
I think psyker has the highest movement speed potential if you can consistently stack all the buffs they can get
I just hate elite patrols 😔
Yeah up to like +80%
Ogryn does their charge and the psyker runs by them lol
Elite patrols when I show them Kantrael Ia executioner's stance
I have a big iron on my hip for those
Plasma gaming 💪
I love me plasma
Great when your Ogryns and Zealots dog pile on the Heretic you want to kill
I find it funny for bosses too as it actually does pretty good damage
As much as I love the Plasma. I find more enjoyable with the MK2 Hellsbore
I've used plasma since the patch 13 change
As a previous mk12 enjoyer, it fills the soul to kill every named enemy on the map
I swapped between the MK 12 lasgun, the Revolver, Plasma as my mains before I decided to give the MK 2 Hellsbore a shot since I got a good one
I prefer playing with a variety of weapons on veteran.
Gets tiresome to do plasma every game.
Nothing feels better than stabbing that god damn pox walker that comes up to your booty while you do Vet things and then quickly go back to shooting things
Need to anyways test things, evaluate their power.
Me too, I have a maniac plasma and an unyielding plasma 💪
I leveled an ogryn and a zealot to lvl 30 to learn why they were so shit in pugs
Does that count?
Surprisingly I found the ogryn harder than Vet
True
Stealth knife zealot is actually quite strong
Yeah a shame I didn't have good weapons to really test it
Zealot knife without the rending blessing would be a bit rough lol
I dont think bad players anyways has much to do with classes.
Ah but learning what they COULD be doing is why I played thrm
And it only solidified my hate
And then you get Those Knife zealots that run ahead, gets trapped by a trapper and instantly quits
But are we gonna tolerate them though
Unironically I think learning how the other 3 classes work just made me more hateful
If they know how to play and aren't shit then yes 
"They could be so much better than what they are now..."
IF
I seen more decent Knife zealots than the kind that make you spend most of the match 3 manning it
In fairness I still get trapped alone sometimes playing zealot but it's almost always because of hitbox shenanigans or silent trapper that only plays sounds right as it fires.
And I'm alone because I comb the map for resources
Silent trappers or multiple trappers for me
Killing all elite and special while having the worst trashkill count makes my tummy feel weird 
Silent multiple trappers
Something like that I'm fair towards because you know. Shit happens
I dodge the first one and kill it with my throwing knife only to see there's another behind it
With silent Pox bursters
Literally happened to me in the past few days
Yeah I just cry when I see that
I've bern farming normal damnations to avoid that
But I'm going to need dockets one day...
Nothing like killing 1 trapper to see your kill feed "You killed Scrab Trapper x3"
I actually had this moment before
See trapper
Dodge it and then headshot with lasgun
4th trapper 
There's two trappers
We have a saying in french: "never 2 without 3"
There's nothing that checks your dodging skills more like snipers in poxwalker horde
With a Pox hound
Then there's the exceptionally unlucky circumstances of going to deal with the shooter backline only to get ambushed in a corner by 3 flamers, 2 dogs and a trapper while your stealth is on cd.
I was near my team for that one but they were all getting got that game
But someone had to deal with it
I almost got downed once because 3 flamers 2 bombers + hab dreyko final event lol
"Hmmm yes what if the veteran couldn't see the trapper from all the fire"
Bombers and flamers do the job better than smoke grenades wish they did
"Vet why aren't you shooting this shit."
"I would if there wasn't so much damn fire!"
The only damn reason why I haven't turned off Health bars on Elites and Special yets. Just in case you get 3 bombers bombing your area
"Someone call for a bomb?"
Nobody did please go rot somewhere else 😭
Please go bomb your teammates
I once tried meleeing the bomber as psyker
It worked but that bitch had martydom perk from COD
Couldn't run out due to fire stun
The good old days where fire just kills you nearly instantly with bugged fire damage
I kinda enjoy the old bugged fire.....Until I get revived and instantly got cooked by it
Only reason I considered running a +wound curio for a time period
Kill something with ranged: you have 10s of improved melee. Kill a few things with melee: you have improved atk speed and some crit on your first shot
It is mostly strong because of the improved melee
So it's just like that talent for 25% more power(?) for melee/ranged
Best part bout it is it reloading your revolver or plasma with the sub talent
The increased fire rate is fun too
Kinda, except easier to use because it cd on switch, not on kill
Yes
Ah, not the switch one
just the 25% one
Ah
It is bad with bayo do not take it
What melee should I even have with helbore
With hellbore you need an anti-carapace melee weapon
So it doesn't matter
Psword is what I'd take so you can kill carapace
In case charged shots don't work?
Cuz bayonet can stagger anything that is not carapace
MK 1 and MK 2 have a fast Bayonet stab which is really good at dealing most threats
MK 3 has a slow overhead slash
MK2 it is the fastest charge of the bunch
1 or 2, 3 is more specialized with a bad bayonet
mk 1 is a nice jack of all trades
Beast of nurgle going real silent after I use the full auto mod
2 is just a better MGXII with bad swap speed

Full auto is a great mod
I was gonna recommend that mod Along with weapon customization so you give it a proper sight
I do have weapon customization
Bad sight is part of the balance imo
But you do you with it
Accessibility is a thing
Balancing weapons around jank/feeling bad is poor game design
I mean
Plasma gun needs a 24x zoom scope
It doesn't have dogshit sights
That's true
But neither it has good sight
But it's still accurate
So you're saying plasma needs a buff?
Brb another plasma buff cooking right up
It needs assail tracking
Kindred spirit 💪
That's a pretty clean
In the end I changed sight to one laspistol has
Kantrael sight was kinda weird to use
Outside of kantrael lasgun
kantrael sight is not the issue, the weird recoil is
I use the Kantrael sights
You know, I'll take kantrael sights over whatever the fuck that is

My man you are a bit too committed to left tree
That's a kantrael build
Which is just stand behind and click heads
And get your butt spanked by whatever melee fodder spawns behind you
Not a problem actually
Chainsword my beloved
That's a kantrael build
I took the helbore just to take the sights screenshot
Oh ye
I gotta need to get good curios
On most of my Vet sets I run 1 +3 stamina and 2 +Toughness curios
I also probably need to make tweaks for my kantrael build
And make an actual helbore build
Strongly recommend voc over exe currently, even if your goal is just to ping stuff from behind your team
VOC is always a great support tool, "Get off me", and instant toughness to reset Iron will
There's one thing I gotta hate about veteran
Honestly I like E Stance a lot
The only free gas mask helmet is locked behind the grindy penance
Yeah me too
I use E-stance is nice I use on my Plasma gun build
I did the parrot "get that shit outta my face" meme with it
It works great in my CIAG Marksman's Focus build too
For kantrael I really wanna keep E stance
Feels like Gunker but much more consistent
Everywhere else I am more than happy to use VOC
It's just good to have variety anyway you know
It's not outright bad like say burst limit override
Or the other Vet auras, But then again. Survivalist is too just too good
Nah I am always going survivalist
Free ammo is free ammo
Hunting grounds aka "Ammo farming grounds"
I always run Survivalist as well
Might as well never have the concept of picking up ammo with the Helsbore
Auras don't change gameplay much anyway
Melk is tempting me with one of the last level 4 belssings i need for the D-claw...
I will happily always take Survivalist there
I just mean the big gameplay altering shit
Actually question
Indeed, survivalist needs a buff
Does anyone here got a helbore build?
1.0%? Na 10% 💪
I do but that is not what you want 
I want a dog to just explode into ammo Doom style
Hunting ground bout be an ammo refill
I just want a helbore build tbf
Something to make it better
he's the bayonet guy 
that build doesn't even work any more I thought
since it's not yoinking melee blessings now
It is harder but it still work a bit
Its no longer killing bosses in seconds
But still functional
I am up for spamming the bayonet tbf
utterly dead, sorry

if it doesn't delete the screen it's a dead build smh
This one is from limbsplitter time 
The good days 😔
God gives tastiest children to strongest of pitbulls
Fatshark pls fix
That's why plasmagun is op
This is my build for bayo:

Check my document
Actually lemme just send it here
I take krak for point eco tbf
If you look at the build I take every passive melee dmg boss possible
Only missing the 4.5% from the 8 stacks keystone
I’d take CQKZ over reciprocity tbh
Yeah, it is a toss
Does bayonet have high finesse
Yeah, you need a melee that can handle carapace if you play bayonet
It is still good against boss
You always has to land headshot and not get hit constantly by chaos spawn
That going might be the issue to land headshot
God I love focus target keystone
A lil shank like that doing quad digits will never cease to amaze and surprise me
Okay seem like some body stab work
Brunt selling an interesting power sword, lets see how badly hadron bricks it
Sometime chaos spawn don’t target you always
Do they target you when you cast VoC staggering?
Already halfway bricked tbh
They turn to you when you VoC
BoN is harder but doable. I have krak on this build anyway
First conecration gave Native bromentum... maybe not...
Plague ogryn is not worth mentionning
Oof Grats
I see
Then i guess the bayonet helbore only worth on chaos spawn and not other boses
GG

Do I use mk1 or mk2?
Yes, I wanna know if MK1 or 2 is better for ranged
I know mk3 is best for ranged but you know why it's not picked
both 1 and 2 are good for ranged, depends on your preference for handling
Good thing about helbores is
Outside of bayonets, it's preference
BoN is a very weird fight in psy 
There isn't a big performance gap where one is just better than the others
I see
I'll keep the mk2 then
I also wanna know if Kantrael 1a is a good pick over 4 and 12
1a is the best infantry las currently
It has the highest dps as well as best balance of one shot potential and usability
Oh ye
I play on heresy mostly and it's easy as clicking heads with it for now
Might need a better one for damnation and auric
Health totals don't change between damnation/auric damnation
Auric is just a board with constant special modifier missions
In terms of dockets, yes
Yes I might need a lot of dockets for weapons
But not any more than the same mission on the regular mission board
Plasteel though might be a probken
Plasteel is always a problem 
final consecration... at least i get a tier 4 blessing out of the blade...
Also i am once again low on plasteel...
And have way too much diamantine
Imagine if we could sell weapons to hadron for plasteel
Better idea, Convert materials to other materials
We had that in VT2 why not here
reinventing the wheel every game is fun
I had an ogryn shield with less than 20% damage but everything else 75% or above... this would have made that weapon a god-roll...
Breaking locks with a big diamantine cost would be amazing but we can't have a feature that reduces RNG, think of all that lost "playtime" from people who would actually not be frustrated
Oh yes please
Duty Is Its Own Reward
You're right, I should do my duty and reward myself by playing a game that respects my time more
I agree
An Open Mind Is Like A Fortress With Its Gates Unbarred And Unguarded
Hope Is The First Step On The Road To Disappointment
Friendly fire isn't
That along with earnable aquilas (and actual content) might persuade me to change my review to positive
If there's a problem? Stab it until solved
If it is not solved....Stab it some more!
Oh yeah that’s right, this is fatshark.
Monkeys paw curls
the game randomly rolls a slot -> if its lands on an already unlocked slot nothing happens UwU
1/3 chance of destroying your gun 
okay i know this is a weakened chaos spawn but WHAT??
this makes pre melee nerf grenadier gauntlet look like a pillow
tfw limbsplitter wouldn't go on cd for a weapon already doing over 1k melee dmg
^
Limbsplitter & Brutal Momentum were incorrectly applied for bayonet’s melee attacks, allowing it to have +60% power (permanently because the limbsplitter stack isn’t consumed until you hit something with your actual melee weapon) and all weakspot hits can cleave 4 targets
the glory days
Thinking on how I should go abt doing weapon pages in my document
It never worked for helbore 3 but that didn't stop fatshark from nuking it
stabby bayo still somewhat functional
but for the life of me I will never understand fatshark's hatred of anything remotely interesting & fun
Fatshark gonna fuck up and make bayonet inherit uncanny from shovel in a patch
oh look people are using something other than ciag/revolver/plasma
better nerf the shit out of it
Oh yes please
just got back to the game after a long while, gonna share a pic of my weps and see if any is useable?
got some helbores and some stuffs
any of these goofy goobers viable?
idk what i wanna play :((
i really want a good lasgun
but last time i played, 13.14, lasguns were dogs
or, rather, very unviable
a good soldier should be a master of a thousand weapons
and should master those weapons a thousand times
just pick a damn weapons son
Laspistol still good
laspistol is gaming?
not the recon ones
i mostly need talent builds i think
im goofin around too much
right now im playin at 3-4 levels cuz im with my friend and hes level 15 just picked up the game recently
so im just havin fun
but still want solid builds etc for when we do auric and damnation etc
voice of command+whatever the fuck you want
survivalist still go to?
not recon lasgun
iLas viable, helbore viable, laspistols viable. Just the weakest are recons. At the lower difficulties yea I guess you won't drag anything with recons
si
why there is less enemy in game now ?

Nice on getting PC 4

If only Mobility and CLeave targets stats swapped
That would be a good PS off the bat
cleave targets doesn't matter on the pswords as long as it isn't outstandingly low
10.9 cleave at 60% cleave targets and 11.7 cleave at 80% cleave targets
a non-issue as long you are still above the threshold for cleaving two scab ragers/maulers (10 hitmass)
Okay. Noted
Trying to get that do 15 runs in a row without going down one?
yeah
Best advice to play extra careful and do it on Malice
Makes it much more painless
Fellas. I don’t know what I wanna run today. Someone give me weapons
Buy a random melee and range weapon from Brunt and go from there
spade and a shotgun
COMBAT BLADE
FLESH TEARER
LACERATE
CRIT DAMAGE
WEAKSPOT DAMAGE
(Don't actually do this it's a shit setup)
do it, it'll be funny
10, I did it by accident doing mostly aurics and a few heresies to level some friends
10 is for the reward. 15 is the fully complete
can I get Columnus help? I've been using the other infantries for a while and decided to finally craft one. Advice for perks or blessings?
flak manic, onslaught, ammo aura, deathspitter, profit
Its not like you get to choose what you get
you basically do???
you'll get what brunt/hadron thinks you deserve so get some rolls and then I can help give advice with your rolls
I wanted to share what I got but I don't think I can share pics yet?
can I dm it to you?
you can just list the perk/blessings you got
good spot in terms of balance i'd say
maniac/flak
punishing salvo/stripped down
generally speaking though even a gray columnus is going to work great if modifiers are high enough
maniac flak is perfect
Hmmmm. Ah yes extra damage to pox walkers seems nice! This useless t1 blessing is great for this gun. I'll be nice and give +Flak. This T4 blessing is really awul, but it suits this gun well
feeling pretty lucky with maniac flak yeah, they t3 but i take those
punishing salvo I'd probably change to dumdum or deathspitter
really? I wasnt sure how valuable stipped down was
well stripped down is something down to your playstyle
it is pretty strong if you play into it
Stripped down has some funny niche things it can do
you need a synergy talent to enable its full potential though
i only have deathsplitter 1 so i can grind some more down for it, or I could just slap on sustained fire IV now
What level are you right now
or is 20% damage for 2 shots/ burst not worth? seems reasonable to me on paper but idk the damage vs power math
30
ok good
Punishing is a definite change for dumdum, it works like zealots anoint in blood and is much better than it seems
Also dumdum is much, much more constent value than ds
for now just change punishing to a better damage blessing
like dumdum which is great
dumdum is BIS
you don't have to immediately change the other one
It's like pinning fire in uptime
stripped down has its uses
Actually better
but if you don't want to play into it then you can do dumdum/deathspitter or dumdum/fire frenzy
or even dumdum/raking fire if you play infiltrate
which will give you some funny boss dps
Raking is a bit meme
Zealot shroud dumdum raking fire
It is, but it just naturally happens during gameplay, not like you have to work for it
boss faces someone else and now you got %40 damage buff
Is that work on BoN weakspot?
it should
went dumdum stripped we'll see how I like itm I'll keep deathsplitter and fire frenzy in mind but I don't love on kill damage effects
thanks y'all ❤️
have fun
no u
beast of nurgle would be so much better if it didn't have instant turn speed
ayaya
magic rotating slug

thank you hadron very cool
doesn't look unsalvageable
perks are rip but honestly, I could live with reload speed
Looks decent
mag dump bolter best bolter
I think the choice here is do you want an ADS bolter or magdump bolter
use infiltrate
Hadron gave it enough mercy to be useful
casually walk past BoN while it vomit on teammate
spam melee into weakpoint
ded

considering my only good blessing is shattering I guess this is a mag dump bolter
Then magic slug turn around toward you or tail slam
I'd do pinning fire personally
-90% aggro
it wont turn
it will do tail slam though
just gotta dodge backwards
I sent u a friend req
running a meme infiltrate build for the sole purpose of trolling the slug?
Trying get close to the weakspot since your arm are short out of reach the hit
No
discord friend request
spooky

oh
Thing is, if you aren't actively trying to make it happen, the average value goes down drastically. And if you are, then it's a lot of effort.
Bosses are the easiest use case
and bulwarks
i think its not so much of a meme just because the 2nd talent doesnt really matter a whole lot on ciag
deathspitter/fire frenzy are alright but you're not really gonna miss it that much
stripped down is decent utility but it really only changes the fact that you cant sprint directly into facing gunfire now
which isnt
as useful as you'd think when you can just angle your camera and sprint diagonally if you really need to and still dodge gunfire
speedloader so I can use more ammo to deny my teammates 😎
that doesn't really make sense to me. I just naturally find enemies facing behind and those happen to be things worth shooting at
YouTube bait https://youtu.be/rvQ7PvEbRTY?si=Mj1tBNaZlya41jmU
bosses, crusher&mauler after overheads, bulwarks, trapper trying to run away after their attack
the gun has good mobility too
rear shot enemies as I leave behind my allies Uwu
I mean what alternative do you have as second blessing
why fatshark whhy
I find enemies have a natural tendency to face towards me the vast majority of the time
If they weren't before, they do when I start shooting
oh yeah I forgot to my list, muties running past you
boss shield if you really wanna magdump it for whatever reason
I did use that strat on twins hm
this discussion
whenever it comes up
makes me baffle because the discussion is always the same
Correct the enemies have natural tendency to face the player, there are 4 players in a lobby
Especially with how fast ciag melts things that are already facing you because funny finesse gun
Such is the nature of things when there is nothing new to discuss
The same discussions are repeated over and over
Just last week director threw like 20 ragers in between a horde at my gunker and they didn't even reach me
Of course the ciag can make anything work given how overtuned it is
part of it is gunker being busted I realize that
I ran a gray one in auric 5's on my zealot
well i think it still goes back to, the alternatives are mediocre
but when the baseline gun is so good you can worry about nice to haves
deathspitter is probably the best one of them in general use
but i can see raking if you wanted to up the dmg on bosses
Still felt great, got the highest elite/special kills in multiple games. Didn't even take anoint in blood at that point.
and ngl i actually think stripped down is very meh but that's just me
bc of what i mentioned
pretty much this, and there are genuine cases for raking to shine
when you think about it its a game about handling pressure and doing things in a timely manner
I’ve always liked raking fire tbh. It might not be optimal compared to most blessings but it’s sometimes fun to use
actually suprising amount of opportunities for shooting things in the back
Especially if you get a beast of Nurgle.
its a win more blessing is what it is
I did use the raking/dumdum ciag for twins hm where rinda's shields are weak to gunfire for example
I'm able to break both shields by myself since I can just melee rodin and then pull my gun out and shoot rinda while she's chasing someone else
many such cases
hmm now I wanna give it a spin I haven't touched ciag in forever
do the smoke infiltrate meme maybe now that its buffed
I’m trying to think of how often I shoot things in the back… honestly it depends heavily. There are times you can position yourself to where a swarm shows their backs
I thought between 25-50% but now I’m not sure.
If a swarm is running up stairs you usually can jump to the bottom and shoot at the enemies running up the steps
I don't go out of my way
anything worth shooting in the back you already have to shoot in the back
mans losing it after his discord got nuked
Wait what
wait did tanner nuke his own server again
I remember he did it when he went scorched earth on his own warframe content a year or so ago
again
Huh?
I need a rundown on this, sounds funny
basically what I said
he basically brought That Same Energy™️ into a pve exclusive game full of decade-old vets
and the tipping point was when he accused a slightly larger content creator of stealing builds
most normal youtuber
which isn't nearly as big as you'd expect because there's like 10 mod slots and like 15 meta mods for that specific type of build
and to be fair he actually did have some ground to stand on, since some warframe content creators (including this specific one) were known for copying builds
Hes certainly a funny man.
who is tanner
but when the other guy started making himself the victim and bluffing about getting authorities involved for harassment, he made a half apology, backed off, and privated his server after about a week
youtuber with often funny takes and what might be considered a very conceited attitude
idek if he purged the server or if he just privated it but yeah
ngl
every isngle person who has cited his videos
are always either toxic or extremely misinformed
or both

tells you all you need to know about his fanbase
has he been in this discord before
yes
he was bragging about his parses in other games
told ppl to "look it up"
i looked it up
"recon lasguns GOOD"
what's a parse
not gonna lie
i think the culture of addons and parsing
actively makes MMOs worse lol
it breeds a fuckton of toxicity
nah
He was, I talked to him personally about something. He made a video to disprove rending affecting falloff from range, and then I deboonked him
after some sleuthing it turns out it does
yes
i've raided in 14 since arr and the most toxic people in the game are always casual midcore players and the lifestyle guild members that base their entire self worth off of how many people in their free company like them
i dont know why ppl brag when they are literally trash ngl
i dont want to be mean but he was acting like an ass
and then bragging
tanner literally bragged about calling people slurs and being mean to them in his server then started having a mental breakdown when complete strangers started calling him an asshole
imo i think modern MMOs are just ass lol
The conversation continued because our testing methods were a bit flawed but I successfully deboonked in the end
i miss the old days
they kinda are
its either themepark simulator like wow
or korean rng nightmare
ye
at one point i tried to tell him that this was all going to be bad for his mental and he said i was way more toxic than he was for implying people had good reasons for calling him a torque
i heard osrs is good
but all the other ones
are either like
themepark bullshit like wow
one person put it nicely tbh
or korean shit like lost ark or maple
she used to like mmos but dont play anymore
said
"it feels like the rest of the gaming industry moved on but mmos stood still for 15 years and we're still playing the exact same shit"
something like that
i mean isn't that literally blizzard's entire MO
all their games are complete ass
but somehow people still play 'em lmao
xiv is good but you kind of have to take it as-is and just accept the fact that if you want to raid you're going to have to run your own group so you can curate your experience
i liked XIV
or just do partyfinder
but the job design past shadowbringers turned me off
i called it quits after i finished EW
truthfully the game falls into the same problem above, MMOs seem extremely risk averse to doing anything novel
is ff 8 or 10 size
XIV is really polished but
imo the problem for me is that raiding requires so many people lmao
i just dont like to deal with that many ppl
yeah raiding in ff14 is easy if you have like 2-6 braincells
it's easier than it's ever been
more ppl = more shit to deal with = more drama
ive pugged every raid from the start minus bahamut/alexander first/second since pugging wasnt a thing back then
they're designed to be easy enough to clear even with pugs w/o voice
they homogenized everything and made it so every class basically operates off of the same framework
even the super hard ones are puggable now
I think many of their games like starcraft, starcraft 2, diablo 3, diablo 2 are pretty enjoyable.
you can literally pug ultimates now
ya
Admitely i think the company however is making alot of missteps
Diablo 4 was not at all fun to play beyond level 60.
that's something of an understatement
Ok theyve managed to piss off half their fan base by now
D4 might be good in a few years
its osrs and to a lesser degree guild wars 2
not sure tbh
competition in the space is becoming fierce
lots of devs making better and better arpgs
this isnt 2012
when the only competition was torchlight
blizzard games are
ngl
consoomer games
since someone mentioned sc2
i didnt play it much
but sc2 was really boring to watch at least
compared to 1
only the sort of people who can afford to shill 60$ for some slop every month tend to play those
and then there is wow which is like
life replacement
with a sub
people not caring about sex assault scandals isn't exactly unprecedented
I cared 😔
well i dont really care
but i wasnt much of a blizzard fan anyway
so it didnt really uh
I guess to a degree it was inevitable MMOs would die out
change anything for me
Sc2 is hardly even a game by this point but a platform.
i think i only ever cared about sc1 as far as their products go
when you think about it all the wow clones and also wow itself designed like life replacements lmao
the problem is that i think there's still a demand
for MMOs
remember when lost ark came out
and it hit 800k players
there are good mmos that you can play without dedicating your life into
and then ppl realized it was a korean shithole
no
it's just that nobody is making good MMOs
The competeive RTS component is only a small sliver of what starcrafs 2 playerbase in the current day is.
mainly avoid gear/power treadmill and you can enjoy your time in an mmo
Theres more people doing casual coop then actual versus.
the problem with lost ark is that the changes that they made to the kr version to make it approachable for new players weren't applied to the na version of the game
i played kr lost ark for a long time before it came to na and you could literally start a new account and be raiding within like a week on kr
MMO playerbase mostly doesn't know what a good MMO is
yeah but not really lmao
but they chose to drip-feed content like it was a brand new game and keep the progression painfully slow
people gatekeep like mad
there was a time when I was following that circle
in both lost ark NA and lost ark KR
its just a bunch of doomers who won't accept anything new but will bitch about lack of new mmos
they just want constant stream of games to fomo
MMOs have kinda split into different forms anyway in the first place
na lost ark was very gatekeep-y at the beginning
all labelled under the same general umbrella
didnt you ever see the documentary of the korean girl streamer starting lost ark as a new player
as someone who was an officer in one of the guilds clearing raids first week
on one of the biggest na servers
and failed
but i think a lot of arcade beatemup-y "MMOs" that korean games tend to look like don't actually resemble anything like something like WoW or whatever
I'm specifically talking about mmorpgs
but yes mmo is a more generic umbrella
well they're marketted that way regardless
lost ark was also a problem because
a lot of what you do in lost ark has nothing to do w playing the game
you're doing bitchquests and playing minigames
for horizontal progression
not actually doing dungeons or anything
like idk i dont consider pso2 the same kind of game as wow or xiv for example
but you call both mmorpgs
at the core of it
lost ark just
wasn't fun, besides the two weeks a new raid comes out
the rest of the time is just boring and grindy homework
speaking of xiv I hate how they make every other race like human with animal ears
you either grind or you pay money
you can play furry lion race
a lot of the random miniquest stuff in lost ark is kinda fun but the fact that it's like a daily management game really turned me off
but I can't fully blame them because mmorpg players have no taste, looking at gw2 where like %90 of playerbase are female human characters
like i already have enough of a hard time making sure i exercise every day i don't need to be getting my gains in on lost ark every day too
bc most of them are erping
no lmao
imo the problem with modern game design
gw2 had a huge issue with people ERPing in public for years and obviously wound up bleeding into illegal activity involving minors
yes lol
is fucking dailies and weeklies dictating progression
i hate that shit
you can't play the game
when you want to
you have to follow the daily/weekly system to progress
it's why i think shit like darktide and stuff is so enjoyable
anet banned an entire guild of players from gw2 once because it turned into a cesspool for groomers and degenerates
because you can play when you want to
lmao
rather than having to play when the game dictates you have to
if i wanna play dt or helldivers or last epoch or what not
i can do so
if i dont i dont have to
''playing human female means you're a groomer'' what kind of logic jump is this dude
