i think if you are going dog build its kinda difficulty to get out of tough situations but lone wolf with break the line is just brain dead clutching

unreal forge
#

that's what exe stance is supposed to be but here's the thing

#

it sucks

vagrant brook
#

Speaking of exe stance is bolter vet with shout actually shit

midnight wyvern
#

what

hybrid plover
#

who the hell told you that?

torn root
vagrant brook
#

Guessing they were wrong lol

midnight wyvern
#

ive got some clips for this lad

torn root
#

ive used both you dont really fret because of the CC you have as lone wolf

#

just cant nuke monsters

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

run bolter with shout

#

use all red nodes on bottom

#

have fun

torn root
#

i like mines

unreal forge
#

I'm convinced the redditors are in the wrong

torn root
#

legit like both mines and nades hard to choose sometimes

unreal forge
#

either roaming or not paying attention

hybrid plover
unreal forge
#

or staying behind to fight 5 poxwalkers and then getting lagged

unreal nova
#

Just annoyed at pub arbies dying so quickly at times.

vagrant brook
#

Redditors are always wrong dosent matter what they say

hybrid plover
#

Some arbitrators play like literal morons

faint beacon
#

It’s from Reddit thus it simply doesn’t exist

hybrid plover
#

Normal difficulty and Havoc lol

unreal forge
#

My issue tends to be with psykers

#

when I was ranking up havocs God knows psykers made my games harder

faint beacon
#

I’ve noticed this for AGES

unreal forge
#

what are the bad habits?

torn root
hybrid plover
unreal forge
hybrid plover
#

Because they decide to push up and trigger spawns they had no business triggering

#

Or TRY TO DEAL WITH A RITUAL ALONE

unreal forge
#

based

#

I actually haven't had experiences like that with Arbitrators in my havocs

WHILE THERE'S WALLS OF CRUSHERS AND BULWARKS

#

Psyker as much as I despise their ability to map nuke

torn root
#

but if you go down and bitch im flaming you

tall nest
unreal forge
#

people keep saying bad habits but I'm rly curious to what the bad habits are

faint beacon
#

Still has to respect shooter/gunner sight lines

#

Arby?

#

Walk at them

hybrid plover
midnight wyvern
hybrid plover
#

meaning you've just now triggered their aggro and the bar fills up much faster and you can't kill the casters in time

#

this exact scenario has happened, many times

#

and every time

hybrid plover
#

It's an arbitrator.

vagrant brook
#

I have the bleed grenades I’ll probably switch them out for krak after seeing that

midnight wyvern
#

really not good to take that to psyker or vet

torn root

#

you toss Aquila ahead of where you're moving

#

BTL you use it to rush them down

unreal forge
#

Aquila will NOT save you from gunners lol

faint beacon
#

the insane DR Arby has is no joke

torn root
#

arbites is brain dead and kinda overtuned, even makes your bad habits not feel like bad habits

#

next to no punishment XD

vagrant brook
tall nest
#

It's nt a bad habit if i kill everything and take no damage

vagrant brook
hybrid plover
#

I honestly don't like playing arbitrator anymore solely because playing it got me so used to not being punished for bad plays that it actually took a while for me to adjust back to another class.

torn root
#

well it is

tall nest
#

always greedy never punished is the classes motto

unreal nova
torn root
#

gotta help your team

#

i havent gotten flamed for ignoring my mates yet

unreal forge
#

It's crazy how different my experience is

torn root
#

but i feel it coming

#

the class makes me forget i have a team sometimes

unreal nova
#

Even on the meta build except with field improv.

unreal forge
#

My bf just casually plays this game and he got way better on Veteran after games on Arbitrator

#

I don't see the bad habits argument on our part

torn root
#

automatic dog water gameplay

tall nest
#

My fav class is veteran but on veteran i actually have to rely on my team while on arbites my team is there for when a shock trooper grabs me when my ping spikes to 400

#

💅

unreal forge
#

He also just thinks Veteran is better, and for his playstyle it makes sense

torn root
vagrant brook
tall nest
#

I think barbie bad habits start appearing when you start using true grit cause that skill will make you greedy by proxy of existing

hybrid plover
#

I am a certified specialist hater and my helbore will see their heads

unreal forge
#

Veteran sits behind team and clicks at heads
Which is what he really enjoys doing as McCree in Overwatch

hybrid plover
#

so therefore veteran is the best for me

tall nest
#

Idk how people use helbore

unreal forge
torn root
unreal nova
unreal forge
#

Veteran gameplay is really chill for me now

hybrid plover
unreal nova
#

Or when I need to solo to next rescue.

unreal forge
#

My Ogryn kills the horde, I kill the gunners that try to stop him

#

it's peak Darktide

torn root
#

also feeling like its hard to make wrong choices on the arbites tree

unreal forge
#

I'm like 90% ranged 10% melee

unreal forge
hybrid plover
#

The tree is probably the most well designed out of every class.

torn root
#

as long as you can get to true grit i dont think any tree is actually bad

faint beacon
unreal forge
#

Psyker and Zealot tree are full of fucking traps

faint beacon
#

to fuck up an arby build

tall nest
faint beacon
#

like you have to actively think to fuck up an Arby build

unreal nova
unreal forge
torn root
unreal forge
#

Hopefully the standard for the upcoming tree reworks

faint beacon
#

but is complete dogshit

torn root
#

i feel like there are some actually horrid nodes on the main class trees that should just not exist

#

why they do i have 0 clue

unreal forge
#

It feels like they finally perfected talent tree making with Arbitrator

#

even Ogryn looks a tad outdated by comparison

tall nest
#

I think ogryn is the same tho

torn root
tall nest
#

Like everything on there is good

unreal forge
#

Arbitrator has a lot more connecting nodes

#

hold on

slow sky
tall nest
#

I never think this ogryn's build is garbage i just think this ogryn is bad which isn't the same as other classes

torn root
#

the only node i think i remember not really caring about was Go Get 'Em

slow sky
#

its just that theres rarely any room to do that in this game because the bad decisions are exactly that, because of bad talents

torn root
#

even enjoyed using retalitory force even with bad up time

unreal forge
#

If Ogryn tree was made today these would be connected

unreal forge
#

cuz that's how it is with Arbites' tree

faint beacon
#

Can we not

#

buff the most powerful class in the game further

unreal forge
#

same goes for the talents near the auras

faint beacon
#

please

slow sky
#

ogryn tree structure was bonkers

slow sky
#

it got pulled back a bit into this current state

hybrid plover
#

funny thing is that it's not even the tree that's necessarily what makes arby so strong

slow sky
#

some connections that really made the statement of "pathing choices are optional"

hybrid plover
#

it's just that the values of the nodes are ridiculously beefed up

#

Why are there so many nodes that just give 15% damage

unreal forge
hybrid plover
#

Why is there a node

torn root
#

i had to wrack my brain not trying to take all the damage buffs

hybrid plover
#

That gives you toughness

#

For breathing

torn root
#

and I STILL GREEDED for the damage buffs

slow sky
torn root
#

walk it off XD

slow sky
#

idc what anyone says

#

walk it off makes my dick rock hard

unreal forge
hybrid plover
slow sky
#

at most i can accept 4%/s

vagrant brook
#

Are they gonna ever rework the talent tree for vet I can only use guides because it genuinely boggles my brain

slow sky
#

but i love it

torn root
#

Walk it off is actually the most stupidly strong for no reason node ive seen in this game

slow sky
tall torrent
hybrid plover
torn root
#

force of will i can say is strong but not as agregious

faint beacon
hybrid plover
#

Thank you.

slow sky
#

2 days after

hybrid plover
#

Very cool.

slow sky
#

get to work path

torn root
#

still got hit shit for force of will, and that gives it down time, a lot more than walk it off

#

walk it off has single handedly crutched me by itself

tall torrent
midnight wyvern
tall torrent
#

Because I only have like 2 parts left lol

torn root
#

matter of fact, Will of the Lex is also nasty too

vagrant brook
unreal forge
#

have you considered a Xim

midnight wyvern
#

I think thats player dependant

tall nest
#

you guys talk as if every single tree on that classes tree isn't +15% damage or +15% damage reduction or toughness

vagrant brook
midnight wyvern
#

I have a friend that I wouldn't have known she uses controller if she didn't tell me

torn root
#

there is damage

#

but lemme count how many noes are just 15%

vagrant brook
torn root
#

8 nodes can give 15% damage, 3 give all damage +15%

#

and all of them can be taken

unreal forge
#

I like that one that reduces the next hit taken by 15% DR, I always get its Ogryn equivalent too

torn root
#

and you still can have dr and regen

hybrid plover
torn root
#

there is no pathing to cap damage

slow sky
#

cmon man

tall nest
#

A better question is if they nerf arbites you think they also nerf the shotgun lmfao

unreal forge
vagrant brook
#

Fair if I’m being real I just don’t wanna drop $100 on something like that

unreal forge
#

Mk3 Ext Shotgun is one of the best shotguns in any video game I've played

tall torrent
unreal nova
# torn root which nodes?

Technically bad. Is the 15/30 stacks in the middle keystone. Just annoying to do personally. The then you have the 15% rending on stagger... and rebreather is literally bad habit.

vagrant brook
#

I got thumb grips and they actually really helped

unreal forge
#

nerfing it would be like going from Halo 1 to Halo 2

#

leave that mistake in 2004

tall torrent
#

I’d actually rather make a less overshot version of vet talent change plans for you guys

#

Than to work on enemy breakdown rn

unreal forge
hybrid plover
#

mk8 is fine where it is

torn root
hybrid plover
#

mk3

#

honestly

#

mk3 is in a weird spot

unreal forge
#

Arbitrator design is all about holding space and that's what Rebreather helps achieve

torn root
#

the only 2 upgrades for Terminus warrant that are worth are the 2 side ones

unreal forge
hybrid plover
#

where it's not the greatest for havoc

#

but for like

#

auric?

unreal forge
#

It's a perfectly fine weapon with weaknesses and advantages and it's so good man.

torn root
#

Obstinate and Writh of Judgement just have such poor uptime imo

unreal forge
#

I love that thing so much

tall torrent
tall nest
#

SHHHHHHHH

torn root
#

Dispence Justice and Terminal Decree are pretty decent

midnight wyvern
#

I want to know exactly what build people are running with the Mk3, I want to know what they're meaning lol, I just don't see it when im playing it

torn root
unreal forge
#

Scattershot and Deathspitter

torn root
#

middle tree imo is just for the shot pistol

midnight wyvern
#

and the tree?

unreal forge
#

It does 300-400 more damage on critical hits

torn root
#

nothing else

hybrid plover
tall torrent
unreal forge
faint beacon
#

Terminal warrant just exists

#

It’s there

hybrid plover
#

Like nothing actually lives long enough for you to interact with it unless it's a crusher or a boss

unreal forge
midnight wyvern
#

before EO got broke

hybrid plover
unreal forge
#

Auric just has ammo up the ass, you never have to go melee

torn root
#

🙂

faint beacon
tall torrent
#

It already reloads in <2s I don’t think any gun on arb rly wants or can afford reload speed

tall torrent
unreal forge
#

20% reload speed buff is a 20% DPS increase

hybrid plover
#

Terminus

#

May quite possibly

torn root
unreal forge
#

easily the worst keystone in the game

hybrid plover
#

Be the worst designed keystone in the game

hollow ibex

faint beacon
#

That’s TW

tall torrent
#

U hit 18 guys with a single melee attack and u trade away 18 stacks

#

Literal abysmal dogshit

torn root
#

YOU LEAVE MY FAVORITE MARKSMAN FOCUS OUT OF THIS!

hybrid plover
unreal forge
#

I want to play with TW's buffs soooo bad but they only last for 2 seconds

tall torrent
#

2s is being generous

#

In 2 attacks u lose all buffs XD

unreal nova
unreal forge
#

they need to just turn it into a timer

torn root
#

its the one highway node on the entire tree

tall torrent
#

Which is why it’s abysmal dogshit

#

And worse than not taking a keystone at all

torn root
#

would love it

faint beacon
#

The only reason you’re pathing down middle anyways is for Monstrosity Hunter as a talent

unreal forge
#

I never take that one

midnight wyvern
tall torrent
#

If it worked per attack it’d at least not lose all stacks within 2 attacks

hybrid plover
#

not like you need to run that with melee for arby

torn root
#

sadly the only other thing terminus warrant does is enable me to kill snipers through crowds with the shot pistol

#

thats it

#

XD

unreal forge
#

I run flak unyielding on mk3 ext because I like shooting pogryns and burgles with it

torn root
#

But i like it for flavor

faint beacon
#

On enemy hit

#

Teehee

#

The stacks magically disappearing the moment a poxwalker horde arrives

torn root
#

IF

#

it wasnt as bad

tall nest
#

lmfao

torn root
unreal forge
#

I think there's probably only like 2 guns in the game that suck at killing snipers if you exclude Ogryn

torn root
#

the block is nice XD andim weird

unreal forge
#

braced autogun and uhhhh uhhhhhh

tall torrent
torn root
#

again

#

not saying that

#

its a high way node that is a keystone

unreal forge
#

only requirement is that the gun shoots one projectile straight. Minimum pellet count does the rest of the work

tall torrent
#

Terminus is not even particularly strong in its effects lol

torn root
#

if dispense justice was not a keystone modifyer for my current favorite weapon i wouldnt even look at terminus warrant

#

and still its trolling when i take it

#

but only mildly

#

because op class is op

tall torrent
#

I don’t think reload speed is ever actually that important for arb’s ranged weapons

#

Besides boltgun but u can’t afford it most of the time

unreal nova
unreal forge
#

Forceful my beloved

tall torrent
unreal forge
#

I've been having too much fun with a working EO the past few days tho

torn root
#

i mean going from 2 second reload to 1 second reload doesnt seem like much -- until you realize you were trolling and your team is bad and you gotta clear specials

#

so the run doesnt end

tall torrent
#

Also the impact changes some weapons’ stagger breakpoints but not by that much

torn root
#

that 1 second

#

feel fantastic

#

remove it from being a modifyer

torn root
#

put it close to forcful

#

matter off act

#

make it a foceful modifyer instead

tall torrent
#

3 talent points just to reload gun is an unreal level of investment lol

torn root
unreal forge
#

and also a whole ass useless keystone

torn root
#

never not taking judicious efficiency

tall torrent
torn root
#

judicious efficienCy is MANDITORY

#

its actually one of the nodes I will actively call ppl trolls for not taking

tall torrent
#

Nah it’s just mid

torn root
#

and its attached to another banger

tall torrent
#

Volley adept but worse

hybrid plover
torn root
#

imma start calling yall trolls 🙂

hybrid plover
#

like it's nice

#

but i'm not gonna say it's mandatory

torn root
#

fine not mandatory

#

but still, very little reason i can find not to take it imo

hybrid plover
faint beacon
#

EO is right there

#

It’s wall hacks basically

hybrid plover
#

if you're going more gun heavy, ya i see a reason but like

#

it's really not that important for a lot of arby builds

torn root
#

since im assuming most are going for Execution order

#

what last node is competing with it?

faint beacon
#

Forceful

hybrid plover
#

Dude have you seen the bottom of arby's tree?

torn root
#

can't go both

faint beacon
#

Forceful is the heavy melee focused keystone

faint beacon
#

That is the lower section summarized

#

Lmao

torn root
unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

every crazy ass node that arby has on the bottom in terms of damage, impact, cleave

#

what judicious efficiency offers

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

is reload speed

#

that is a really hard sell honestly.

#

it's consistent reload speed

#

but even then, like... there's just, better things to take that point on imho

torn root
#

okay so the argument im hearin is when you go forceful

#

which i can agree to

#

but kinda feels like a free node on execution order

hybrid plover
#

even eo doesn't really need it

torn root
#

we wont talk about needs because there arent really nodes that you do

hybrid plover
#

no i mean

torn root
#

1 sec

hybrid plover
#

you literally do not have to take it to get to eo

tall torrent
torn root
#

i mentioned it as a last point

unreal forge
#

idk about you guys but reloading my shotgun 27.5% faster is cool

#

I'll take it every time

tall torrent
#

out of the 5 it has

unreal forge
#

I just pick crit and cdr

#

the others idrc for

torn root
#

well in the arbites chat ppl were saying the kill nodes for EO were kinda unneccesary

#

Malocator, Keeping Protocol and not Farbehind are the ones ppl all agree should be taken

tall torrent
#

basically run this if u have dog

torn root
#

the crit one i see pple more like 40 60 on

unreal forge
#

crit is mandatory

tall torrent
#

crit upgrade is good pretty much all the time

torn root
#

no

unreal forge
#

same with cdr

torn root
#

not mandatory

#

but it is good

unreal forge
#

why would you not want more crits and more crit damage

vagrant brook
#

Is it worth getting rid of the dog I felt like a genuine tank when I took lone wolf

unreal forge
#

there's very few nodes that compete with that

torn root
#

you have to shoot other shit

#

to use it on the guy you want it for

#

which means time spent shooting and pissibly reloading during monster fights

tall torrent
#

just kill highlighted enemies which are elite and specials anyway

unreal forge
#

Dog keeps your buffs going for greater uptime, you can focus on defense or simply not have anything to kill, but your dog will pounce some poxwalkers and keep your buffs going anyway

torn root
#

you dont really have all the uptime in the world with that crit especially on bolter unless stance is up

unreal forge
#

erm

#

in havocs every single specialist and elite is marked

torn root
#

well thats a lie because of the internal cd

unreal forge
#

it's only 3s

torn root
#

but i can see why ppl opt out of it some times which i agree with

tall torrent
#

nah there's not rly any reason unless the game spawns no specials and no elites

unreal forge
#

point is that Havoc will have a lot of specialists and elites marked all the time

tall torrent
#

8s duration is very generous

unreal forge
#

there's just a lot of patrols

torn root
#

not a dog main, but this was a convo they had in the chat yesterday even

tall torrent
#

the only EO upgrade not worth is rending

#

all 4 others worth taking 90%+ the time (assuming with dog)

#

without dog then u take the 3 on the left

#

and skip NFB

unreal forge
#

the dog one could be fun for a movement speed build

torn root
#

well you cant take them without the dog

#

lmao

tall torrent
#

for some reason u can

#

idk why it's not locked for lone wolf builds

torn root
#

on the website yes

#

not in game

unreal forge
#

take that +10% movement on elite/special kill, +10% for dog pounce kill, +15% movement on ranged hit

#

+5% sprint speed on slide

tall torrent
#

tac axe + boltgun

unreal forge
#

bro skipped 25% DR

torn root
#

lmao

#

also wtf

unreal forge
#

bro skipped 10% toughness on hit

tall torrent
unreal forge
#

bro skipped both BTL subnodes ok wtf

tall torrent
unreal forge
#

weirdddd

torn root
#

do dog players not take serrated maw?

tall torrent
#

tac axe is basically the economy melee now lmao

#

u don't need like

#

most things

torn root
#

the more i read them yea i can see reason not to take the reload

unreal forge
torn root
#

with the shotgun im taking that shit tho

#

the reload speed

tall torrent
tall torrent
unreal nova
tall torrent
#

ext shotguns u can fire as soon as a round is loaded (faster than combat shotguns)

#

the difference in reload speed is pretty small

torn root
#

1/5 faster reload for my withering fire!

#

leave me alone!

#

hehe

tall torrent
#

withering fire is like

#

flex pick imo

unreal nova
#

So doggo hangs off bosses and disco ball make oggy stronk.

tall torrent
#

if u can afford target priority it's better most of the time

torn root
#

okay blessed armament is like a bolter pick only right?

unreal forge
#

what is that

tall torrent
#

what's blessed armament

torn root
#

the on kill reload during castigator stance

#

10% of the mag per kill

tall torrent
#

u don't need any subnode for castigator

torn root
#

1.5 sec cd

tall torrent
#

none of the 3 is worth it

unreal forge
#

castigator subnodes r trash

tall torrent
#

BTL has better subnodes but u don't have to take them either

torn root
unreal forge
torn root
#

lmao

#

i dont use that side of the tree

unreal forge
#

20% reload speed will let you have a lot more uptime because of that stupid 1.5s cooldown

tall torrent
#

the only castigator subnode that's good is WoE but this is like extreme niche havoc minmax cuz otherwise u don't even get enough value out of it

tall nest
tall torrent
tall nest
#

That is the only situation

tall torrent
#

but not required

torn root
#

terminus was basically doing nothing but giving me reload tho

tall nest
#

But also yeah just the 20% reload speed node is enough lmfao

torn root
#

and forceful is nice but i never really got hit until entire team was dead

unreal forge
tall nest
tall torrent
#

CfC (for BTL) is pretty good but not required, depends on how u use it most of the time

unreal forge
tall nest
torn root
tall torrent
torn root
#

gotta take cfc and the 2 attached ot it

#

they are just good for clutching

tall torrent
#

the 7.5m distance upgrade is actually pretty cool but takes spending 2 points to get to

unreal forge
#

I am never not taking both BTL subnodes

midnight wyvern
torn root
#

taking either of the other 2 without the range is kinda bad

unreal forge
#

the range is useless

tall nest
torn root
#

no its not lmao

tall nest
#

Am confuse

torn root
#

you get out of bas situations

#

or on top of enemies with it

midnight wyvern
#

not grey

unreal forge
#

you get stopped on contact with elites anyway. Also, you can make up for the range by taking one step

tall nest
#

Am i allowed to shit post now

unreal forge
#

the only situations I ever find myself thinking I need more range is when I needa get outta bomber fire xd

torn root
#

you want it when you gotta clutch

unreal forge
#

but like, just walk anyway

torn root
#

and that happens quite a bit

torn root
#

nope sopmetimes you cant

unreal forge
#

that's a 1 in 20 games situation and I never died to it

torn root
#

its ensurance

unreal nova
torn root
#

being able to dash a little farther to thenr es someone is nice

#

it really is

unreal forge
tall nest
torn root
#

there are a LOT of use cases

tall nest
#

I hate playing E kitten zealot cause teammates suck

#

so i started hating the class too

unreal forge
#

Zealot is such ass

unreal nova
unreal forge
#

FotF needs to be buffed into being giga meta

#

only way Zealot becomes fun

hybrid plover
#

wot

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

FotF is actually good.

#

It's not that zealot is inherently an underpowered class or anything. The build variety just fucking sucks.

unreal nova
hybrid plover
#

Fury's genuinely an amazing ability.

unreal forge
#

Ehhhhh

tall nest
unreal forge
#

I don't see it

#

It's fun to use, but like . . . it's not amazing

#

way more fun than chorus

unreal nova
unreal forge
#

It did become more fun once I learned that I can auto target enemies with it

#

But even then for a lot of weapons it wasn't even enough to kill a Crusher

hybrid plover
#

It's not the attack that comes after the dash that's the only benefit. 20% extra attack speed is no joke.

unreal forge
#

Yeah that's the best part

#

It makes a lot of weapons usable

unreal nova
#

What did you expect from it? Steroids to max so a chainsword can 1 shot?

tall nest
#

Yes

unreal forge
#

I expected the Eviscerator to do it at least

tall nest
#

It should

#

The skill is called fury of the faithful I'd expect THE FURY TO FURY

unreal forge
#

probably it can with that horrid special attack if you initiate FOTF after starting it

#

but that requires walking up to it and forfeiting the dash

#

and also using the horrid special attack

#

New idea: Keystoneless Zealot

hybrid plover
#

It's possible but

#

Eh

#

I like my mortyrdom

unreal forge
#

You have but a fraction of Zealot Saltzpyre's power

hybrid plover
#

honestly, speaking of zealot, i kinda wish they made it that the subnodes didn't take five god damn pulses to proc on chorus

unreal forge
#

They needa take chorus out the back and shoot it

#

Just rework it into Warrior Priest's bubble bro trust me

Why do you think I don't remember codes? Thing with a net works just fine anyway.

Skitarius? Whats that?

azure narwhal
#

It can also be used for weapons that need a lot of spam like the heavy laspistol

muted peak
#

We have something like that?

#

How can I download it?

#

It would be awesome for me on comba required situations

sonic pecan

#

Is that a mod?

Hey guys I forget. Is the re-fire on hold stuff for things like burst fire rifles still a mod only thing or did it get added into the game? (I kinda can't check cause I'm away from home)

#

Macros have been around since the dawn of time in gaming

#

I'm surprised people are this surprised

#

Skitari is literally just that but dumbed down for players to use

#

As long as it's up and running, everything is just a debate of your personal moral compass

#

Everyone has bias

#

For different reasons

#

I do my own combos because i enjoy it

#

But i coudln't care less if someone automated everything i do

#

That's an example, but that's a personal opinion of mine, not a fact

#

So is this whole situation

grand perch
#

I debated installing that mod that automatically does the mini games for you, because after 2600hrs i am just sick of them. I didn't end up doing it, felt too cheaty

#

At the same time I got insulted for using a dodge counter

mortal aspen
#

it's crazy how borderline cheat and automation mods are allowed in dt, but vt2 can't approve a mod that makes bots slightly less rejected

grand perch
#

There's just no consensus

torn root
#

ngl when i redownloaded this game i made sure that none of the mods where anywhere to be found

#

they actually ruin the game for me

#

0 skill expression imo, not that anyone else has to follow suit

#

but if ppl respect you less for using them you gotta eat that, especially since ppl in here like sharking on each other over stuff like skill

muted peak
sudden cedar
#

@silver wing And after all that, they still suck at the game.

Turns out, if you no longer play the game but the game is being played for you.. you have no reason to learn how to play the game.

Same for other games, things got nerfed for legit players. Macros got old legit DPS.

mortal aspen
#

World of Warcraft has a 1 button rotation official "macro" now xdd

torn root
#

it doesnt break the difficulty or challenge of the game

#

if anything it deepens it to an extent depending on the viewpoint

#

in DARKTIDE

#

using macros and add ons will often be viewed as lazy and as players lacking skill -- which it objectively is

#

im on that side, because im not gunna watch player belittle each other acting like they are nice at the game while being hand held

#

not that you should be talking badly about each other to begin with

mortal aspen
torn root
#

a bad player is still a bad player even with macros, and a good player is better with them i guess

#

as far as ive seen and known i dont think there are macros for positioning so no, im not kidding

mortal aspen
#

fair enough

torn root
#

mostly say this because i spent a week trying to learn the damn game and gave up when i found out in some cases macros are just the best to use

#

learning macros as someone JUST getting into coding and understanding computer logarithms it kinda crushed me

#

watched a 2hr video on macros then quit

muted peak
#

Is there a way to change heavy attacks keybind?

torn root
muted peak

Can you tell the name

multi keybinds i think it was called

muted peak
#

Thank you

i dont use mods anymore but if you type in keybinds on nexus it should show up

@steep flower An apt way of putting it. I agree with that.

Perfection chadgryn

torn root
#

you can actually code your own macros if you know the language

mortal aspen
#

normal macros are ok. they come with a lot of restrictions and they don't play the game for you

torn root
#

IF you know it

#

TFT

#

half kidding

mortal aspen
#

it's just for baking a no gcd cooldown into another ability or something

or putting a damage and healing ability on 1 button contextually

azure narwhal
#

TAS IS the game frame perfect playing for you, and that's the idea

#

previewing min maxed runs, impossible humanely

mortal aspen
#

which is what the blizzard tool does

torn root
mortal aspen
#

you can't make if\else statements etc.

azure narwhal
#

dude

#

devil may cry TAS

#

goddamn INSANE input strings

unreal nova
torn root
#

technically TAS falls under macro

#

like literally

azure narwhal
#

kinda ish

#

tas is just a pre recorded sequence of macros

#

anyways

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

yeah, at that point we just call it a day though lol especially in crazier games with it

#

like the aforementioned dmc

#

HOWEVER

#

at the end of the day

#

it is a player who sequenced everything

torn root
azure narwhal
#

which is where the difficulty comes in

torn root
#

the most ive learned is that i can foce abilities to interact differently based on if im hovering or not hovering a target, as well as for interactions right after casting them in WoW but even that already exploded my head

#

i like darktide

#

simple imputs

unreal nova
torn root
#

little brain power required

azure narwhal
#

when i used to snort dmc each day i used other people's TAS videos to learn how to clear faster

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

yeh

#

i get the whole

#

macro uproar but personally

#

i just don't care despite me not using macros

#

since i like clicking stuff

torn root
#

🙂

unreal nova
mortal aspen
#

so it just actively promotes staying bad at the game

torn root
#

like it increases GCD by how much

azure narwhal
#

Anyways, ping fatshark i need this for my vet!1!!!1!

torn root
#

is it basically playing stylish in a fighting game?

#

lmao kinda of a funny nerf

#

but also a buff

mortal aspen
torn root
#

nah fam i aint touchin that

mortal aspen
#

so if you have a GCD of 1s, it's 1.25s

torn root
#

25% adds up

torn root
unreal nova
#

Depends on how good you are at pianoing.

#

Don't you dare tell me playing an MMO isn't like playing a piano.

torn root
#

but at the same time that commuinity kinda toxic to new players so idk what to say XD

sudden cedar
#

The same goes for Darktide tho, doesn't it?

torn root
#

if others dont help new players they help them selves, and its detrimental

torn root
#

or invoker

sudden cedar
#

How many times do i see, admittely reddit isn't great but anyway, a reddit post where someone asks something

torn root
#

then we chat

sudden cedar
#

and 90% of comments is just clowning on the question

#

and you have to actively search for a useful answer

torn root
#

playing those characters is equivalent to writhing whole sentences for 5 seconds of actual output maybe even less

#

XD

unreal nova
torn root
#

also i meant the OG

azure narwhal
torn root
#

not dota 2 invoker XD

#

26 spells

#

1 for each alphabet

unreal nova
azure narwhal
#

anyways invoker and hwei are very different, peak invoker is crazy management and inputs. anyways, i do have a dota bias

#

used to main CK

torn root
#

like actually

azure narwhal
#

i miss old dota

torn root
#

and i main league but playing that dude stole me from the game

azure narwhal
#

if i could go back to old dota somehow i'd play it today

torn root
#

call me CARL the piano man

azure narwhal

on LoL, i was a yasuo/aatrox main

unreal nova
azure narwhal

mid yas top trox

#

yep

unreal nova
#

Back when she was more pos 4.

azure narwhal
#

what was that new system they added? i haven't played dota in ages

mortal aspen
#

dota 2 is bloated now

azure narwhal
#

something something characters got new skills or something

mortal aspen
#

every character has 10 abilities or something, every ability does 10 different things

unreal nova
#

And the new rng crafting thing.

azure narwhal
azure narwhal
#

ahhh

#

#

yes

unreal nova
#

Less more abilities...

torn root

More, different playstyles.

and i haven't touched dota in almost 6 years

Oh, you mean classic.

mortal aspen
unreal nova
#

Was thinking DOTA2.

mortal aspen
#

my favorite dota 1 character - Kimahri from FFX

torn root
#

iirc it should be tornado, meteor, deafening blast

#

could delete whole teams back then

unreal nova
#

Wait... emp is the shock thing.

torn root
#

magnus and invoker were best friends at the time

unreal nova
#

I don't play him much tbh.

torn root
#

actually an iconic character since other games tried to copy him

#

league and i think smite both tried

#

a game thats dead now called dawngate tried too

#

then we had magika wars

#

even games like outward copied that system

unreal nova
#

I only know eee, eew, eeq, qqq and wwe.

mortal aspen
#

Elementalist from Guild Wars 2 is basically invoker

torn root
#

the mage character in nightreign is similar i think

unreal nova
#

Off head.

torn root
#

havent touched it tho

unreal nova
#

Not my type. I rather just caster Luna.

torn root
unreal nova

Or Support PA before they nerfed the memes.

torn root

i had spread sheets in my damn brain burned into the back of it

for 1 character

#

unreal nova

I think.

torn root
#

spirites is eeq

#

yeah

#

my bad

unreal nova
#

I think qqe is wall.

torn root
#

ice wall is qqe

#

i misread

torn root
#

the damn spell inputs were named after the buttons XD

#

which was always funny to me

torn root
#

quas, wex, exort

#

qwe

#

XD

unreal nova
#

Oh that.

torn root
#

imnot downloading this game, lets talk about something else XD

#

before bad decisions are made

unreal nova

I mean, I only play horde mode now.

#

Great 80GB used btw.

torn root

i have no clue what tha t is XD

#

80G HOW?

#

oh

#

shit we talking about DT

#

Mortis Trials are kinda dookie imo

unreal nova

@ path is this true

Cause there is absolutely no middle ground between a movement shooter and a cover shooter.

Cover is a vital part of Darktide that is ignored by a lot of players

tropic notch
#

I remember ainz was telling me about a vet using exe stance and hiding in cover like it was cod

sudden cedar
#

The same that complain that they can't deal with gunners and shooters

azure narwhal
#

Both is good

#

Movement, utilizing cover

#

Much of it as one can do helps

And think that a Psyker Bubble is needed/necessary for H40

Looking at you YouTubers

azure narwhal

As for evisc, it was the hardest weapon to get used to in my DT journey but i'd aurgue it's still fairly good, has its shining moments. Captains eat shit, anything unyielding eats shit, and you will die quite a few times till you learn how to play around those ragers. My biggest leap was learning to utilise the Mk3 well. Light 1 light 2, block cancel repeat for active fighting

tropic notch

My biggest issue atm is getting back into zealot after playing Arby

azure narwhal
#

Hmmm

#

I hear this a lot

tropic notch
#

Made me braindead

#

I cannot die as Arby

azure narwhal
#

I get it BUT i do enjoy how fast and violent zealot feels. Arby didn't quite give me that, it's more like an aggressive pusher.

#

True

#

There's so much of everything

#

Though i don't hate arby like some

tropic notch
#

Zealot will outperform Arby in damage

covert dagger
#

Lone Wolf Shield arby is tons of fun.

azure narwhal

I don't have a problem with people who like him for how strong it is and main him

It's whatever

I do wish eo was tuned down

azure narwhal

Ah yeah

tropic notch
#

Atm it’s broken

#

Well they “fixed” it

azure narwhal
#

I'm too uhh, uncaring? for anything of that sort, i prefer forceful despite it being op. I'd rather pick me own target priority Sitgryn

#

It's why i can never play ping veteran

#

Too distracted in my own head

tropic notch
#

Yeah I go forceful too

covert dagger
#

Something just ghosts around in my head sometimes when I think about the DT Playerbase.

I don’t know if people still say it, but the complaint about field improv is that it’s “too situational.”

Someone replied that “it’s a situation that seems to happen a lot.”

azure narwhal
#

Lol

tropic notch
#

I never take it

#

It’s not needed

#

Nice but not needed

azure narwhal
#

I admit field improv is great BUT veteran is so hard to give up any talent points man

#

It's just not affordable sometimes

#

Vet is already hard enough to build

covert dagger
#

It’s not needed. You heard the guy.

azure narwhal
#

Man

#

How i wish we had some sort of new vet tree

#

Just something more accessible and different

#

Vet needs a lot of work anyways

tropic notch
#

The only useful thing is healing corruption and unless you’re letting a dog eat you for 20 seconds or love getting hit by infested trash

azure narwhal
#

I'm losing my mind on shout, but i cannot take it off in good conscience either

tropic notch
#

Yeah exe stance is fun but shout is too good

covert dagger

Always reminds me of that super short window in time in WoW where frost mage would have low damage numbers but five every caster insane mana regen.

A lot of the top guilds had a frost mage in their raids.

Randos? They’d boot you.

azure narwhal

In randoms, i get the occasional daemonhost, and the guy 40m away getting eaten by a dog
