If you feel like you want to know what you're doing, go stealth and play the objectives

unique stump
#

what do you mean by "know what youre doing"? like just hitting my shots?

analog mural
#

He means if you are a competent player who is capable of being self sufficient

agile mango
#

Which grenades do you guys think are best in havoc nowadays?

unique stump
#

then exec stance it is

hollow ibex
#

Exec stance takes more skill to play because you can’t use it as an oh-shit button

fair shale
#

I like having smokes more than the others I'm ngl

worthy solar
fair shale
#

Yeah

agile mango
#

I think I’m on team smokes

worthy solar
#

kraks good for bulwarks and bosses (crushers are a dead species)

unique stump
#

ig i can kinda use shredder nades with exec as a kinda oh shit button

#

not very fast but

fair shale
worthy solar
#

but it feels like even more of a decrease than that

#

i went from seeing crushers every two arenas to like

#

one pack per match

fair shale
hybrid plover
#

It's probably cuz there's much more of everything else spawning

quiet lark
#

well the numbers they said were just their estimates of the effects of the changes on average. in my experience it feels more like 70 % or so in havoc

worthy solar
hybrid plover
#

So it feels like there's less crushers comparatively as well

fair shale
#

Yeah

#

It's defo confirmation bias rn

worthy solar
#

crushers costing more to spawn will mean that the director just spawns other things

#

so i suppose it makes sense

hard lake
#

trappers can go fuck themselves

#

I got very tired of the constant 20+ crusher clown cars quickly

#

Garh fuck my power port got very hot playing darktide

#

Now i can't play dorktide while overheating my laptop

hollow turtle
#

Coming back to darktide. Last I was on, havoc wasn't a thing.
Am I expecting to get trash talked by sweats?

pseudo fiber
#

Well havoc isn't instantly harder than auric

#

so you should be alright

hollow turtle
#

Lol gonna be weird being that level 30 playing Malice-Heresy until I remember everything again.

#

nah i see plenty of 30s in both

hai whats new : 3 whats up in vety class

split estuary
#

Hey hey

hybrid plover
#

You'll learn the game real quickly that way

turbid ibex
#

so true bestie

hybrid plover
#

God this reminds me of when I actually took one of my closer friends who's way more of a casual for this game than me into havoc 40 because they were curious about it

turbid ibex
#

the before and after the war

hybrid plover
#

LMFAOOI

#

Literally said to me "who even are you and how did you manage to get to this rank if the game's like this"

tall torrent
#

I can’t decide if I actually want grenadier for frags atm

#

It’s rly good for frag but idk

hybrid plover
#

I think if the build can fit it, it can come in clutch to have

#

But I also don't think it's necessary.

tall torrent
#

Krak value is mainly bulwark atm

#

Frag for mauler/rager/shotgunner/gunner

hybrid plover
#

I will say

#

If you're running bistol and don't have grenadier tinkered frags

#

What's even the point 😔

tall torrent
#

I’m only 2 shotguns and flamer away from finishing ranged section overhaul

#

Also sent u the dot comparisons in dm

hybrid plover
#

If I'm running bistol I am investing full stop in carpet bombing the entire map

#

I saw

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

At least toxin seems

tall torrent
#

And intro sections

#

Then arb

hybrid plover
#

A bit leveled out.

#

A bit.

tall torrent
#

I think ogryn after arb?

#

I’m actually curious about og weapons’ stats tbh

#

but this alrdy is in progress

tall torrent
turbid ibex

tame lodge
#

Beware of who you call ugly in high school

tall torrent
#

Karsolas 2 shot maulers on body hit KEKW_ogryn

#

And heavy stagger KEKW_ogryn

#

And smth like 27+ cleave

tame lodge
#

Yeah we already know the pickaxes are goated

tall torrent
#

2 of the 3 are

hollow ibex
#

Am I going to have to play ogryn again

tame lodge
#

You'll get to cleavers and find out that they are good at hurting naked things

tall torrent
turbid ibex
hollow ibex
#

Perhaps one day

hybrid plover
tall torrent
#

IV is generally good with 2 main weaknesses

#

Dreg rager stagger (because FS gave its H sweep 0.5 maniac stagger ADM)

turbid ibex
#

idk shit about cleavers ngl

tall torrent
#

And carapace damage (but u won’t fight crushers that much)

tall torrent
hybrid plover
#

I mean there is the concern of maulers

tall torrent
#

They’re highest move speed weapon for ogryn

tall torrent
#

It’s not that bad

#

Main issue is Dreg rager stagger

tame lodge
#

Boasting good cleave damage distribution into naked enemies

hybrid plover
tall torrent
#

U can immediately tell the difference when 6 Dreg ragers swing at u and ur melee does nada

hybrid plover
#

Tall

tall torrent
tame lodge
hybrid plover
#

I mean hit chest

#

As an ogryn

tall torrent
#

It’s not that bad actually

#

I use max height og and I can still do it very consistently

#

Just look at feet chadgryn chadgryn chadgryn chadgryn chadgryn

dont think i ever heard of that kink before but go off

#

btw path do you still have the gif of the two guys and the speech bubble

#

i lost it

tall torrent

It’s not a kink it’s just that I appreciate prettier faces more than large boobs or ass

That’s about it

Path getting to the Rippers and noticing that the bayonet is the best part of the weapon

turbid ibex

tidal fox
#

mfw when someone says they play shovel unironically

tall torrent
tame lodge
#

I know they're ok but that's not the narrative I'm going for

#

Although I'd love more ammo on them ngl

turbid ibex
#

the consequences of ammo being the dump stat

tame lodge
#

Best dump btw 💀

tall torrent
#

ammo is not the dump stat

#

it's just specifically 66

#

collat is dump stat

turbid ibex
#

it is the lowest stat so i call it the dump stat

tame lodge
#

Yeah but like
You're not getting collat as the lowest stat

#

So

#

Schrodinger's dump stat

tall torrent
#

also I updated class base stats sections

turbid ibex
#

i wish they'd change the blessings on ripper so they'd always proc every round instead of 10% of mag

#

so that way you could actually dump collat

tawny badger
#

hey is it just me or does tox bomber gas last way longer than I remember

hybrid plover
#

But what I can tell is that there's simply fucking more of them now.

#

So the clouds ends up feeling longer since theres just, more clouds in general.

Give me a moment verifying file integrity

tall torrent
agile mango
#

is 72% ammo and 68% thermal resistance bad on the plasma?

tall torrent
agile mango
#

do I trsash it or do I replace my 60 charge rate plasma with it?

tall torrent
#

U can scrap old one

agile mango
#

sick. the extra 8% ammo on the old one isnt that meaningful?

tall torrent
#

Oh wait

#

U said less ammo

#

No

#

U want thermal & charge rate to be specific numbers

#

Other 3 stats being 80 is priority

agile mango
#

so scrap the 68% thermal one?

tall torrent
#

Unfortunate but yea ig

torn depot
#

Has anyone paired the Deadshot talent with the plasma gun?

torn depot
#

Dang it

quiet lark
#

deadshot is also generally not very good

torn depot
#

Thats a shame

#

Time to hunt for plasma gun builds

tall torrent
#

Plasma is quite flexible with builds tbh

#

U can do WS or FT depending on what ur melee is

torn depot
#

Trying out dueling sword

#

I just found out it had the parry ability like the catachan sword

stuck gorge
#

they stole the one unique thing dclaw had and gave it to dsword to replace its poke ability

tall torrent
#

DS fell off with recent balance change tbh

#

#buffBadWeapons

shrewd topaz
agile mango
#

my build good? using plasma and PS in havoc 40. 6 stacks of redirect fire lets me two tap crushers with PS.

tall torrent
#

also take precision strikes

agile mango
# tall torrent do u need serrated blade

i swap between it and field improv; it feels weird using field improve when I just have smokes though. sometimes the bleed lets me finish off enemies left on a sliver of health.

agile mango
tall torrent
#

tinkerer even

tame lodge
#

No no I agree
PS bad
#buffPS

tall torrent
agile mango
agile mango
tall torrent
#

I’m assuming u run carapace perk with this too

#

That’s a lot of investment for an enemy with such low spawn rate

agile mango
tall torrent
#

30% weakspot in this case outperforms 5% damage from 6 stack RF because it’s in a different multiplicative bracket from +damage

#

And idk why u have to build for a specific crusher 2 tap with so many strings attached when crusher doesn’t even spawn that much now

agile mango
tall torrent
#

Unyielding flak is better for vast majority of cases

tall torrent
agile mango
tall torrent
# agile mango yes

I still don’t know why u specifically go for a niche crusher breakpoint

agile mango
tall torrent
agile mango
tall torrent
#

I don’t even use FT for power sword

#

And the other thing is

#

I don’t think raw dps breakpoints matter as much vs crushers compared to stagger (which u get from other 2 grenade types)

#

They don’t live long under concentrated fire and you’re not gonna be the only one attacking crushers

drowsy perch
#

whats the fastes combat axe

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

i tried rashad with the ignore hitmass and strength on hit

#

but it was so fucking slow

silver patrol
#

and it's still the best one

tall torrent
#

You’re supposed to build attack speed for it

#

And learn sprint cancel

drowsy perch
#

how u build atk speed on vet

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

does vet have any melee ones?

silver patrol
#

one i think

drowsy perch
#

afaik vet barely even has attack speed in general

silver patrol
#

and you basically always take it

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

oh yeah trench fighter

#

i always take it

tall torrent
#

And WS

drowsy perch
#

still slow as balls

drowsy perch
tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

oh weapon specialist

silver patrol
#

yeah i mean, its like the only weak point of the weapon

drowsy perch
#

not watersport

#

i think im already using ws

#

maybe

#

well

#

different build

silver patrol
#

didn't try the mk8, but i think the other marks are even slower

#

btw do weapons have a different acceleration value in sprint

tall torrent
#

yea

silver patrol
#

because sometimes when i start sprinting with the combat axe it's like

#

being immobile for a second

drowsy perch
#

also headtaker or decimator

#

headtaker i imagine is easier to keep up

silver patrol
#

headtaker

tall torrent
#

decimator is one of the worst

hollow ibex
#

all my homies hate decimator

drowsy perch
#

flak and cara or manic

silver patrol
#

unarmored and unyelding maybe

tall torrent
#

unarmored/flak + carapace

silver patrol
#

or flak

drowsy perch
#

prob do flak and unarmored then

silver patrol
#

always nice to handle a rager horde with it

agile mango
# tall torrent Yea

nvm it two-taps those as well on headshots; I'm just bad at getting headshots

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

ive wanted to like crusher but it just

#

its so slow for what other weapons can already do decently

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

the weapon

#

not the enemy

agile mango
#

havent tested all ranged yet

tall torrent
#

4 stack FT tag + slaughter max stack + skirmisher max stack + EW active is enough, and this is assuming u don't crit in either of 2 hits

#

so u should just take precision strikes

tall torrent
agile mango
#

thx

agile mango
#

leave PS blessings/perks as they are?

tall torrent
#

this is with precision strikes

#

gets u over 10k

tall torrent
#

tho personally I think unyielding flak is best atm

#

because crushers just don't spawn that much, and neither mauler nor plasma gunner is so high hp that u need to take carapace perk for them

#

also for maulers u may want to bodyhit to cleave through (and hit 2) for stagger anyway

#

and all of this is still assuming u don't crit
but u will, given desperado & reciprocity

#

flak means u can 1 hit scab shotgunner & gunner

#

and may 1 hit scab rager with activated heavy

#

and better mauler body dmg

#

and better bleed dmg (frag)

tidal fox
#

shovel mentioned

#

rip off my skin immediately

tepid otter
#

I am right in understanding that the shared Exec Vision only last the 6seconds no matter the uptime you get? Or does it last for the duration of how long you have Exec active through active killing

tidal fox

the former

drowsy perch
kind arch
#

guys any advice on using the powersword? its so awkward to use for me it feels so clunky

crimson garden
#

Power and then sword

drowsy perch
#

i think its turn on, swing 3 times, then turn on again

#

also yea cycler and sunder are usually what ppl say to do

crimson garden
#

With the MK VI you go into the light stabs with a heavy? So the combo would be special, heavy, light, light or is PA more efficient?

kind arch
#

i guess its just a playstyle issue then, idk why it feels so weak to me D:

#

will probably give it a few more games and see how it goes before i go back to my old reliable chainsword

crimson garden
#

Are you using the special frequently?

drowsy perch
#

and yeah u gotta use the energy basically all the time

#

otherwise its a butterknife

kind arch
#

im trying to use the special every 3 swings but i find it doesnt do enough damage before i turn the special back on

#

especially against ragers and the heavily armoured enemies idk what they are classified as, carapace?

crimson garden
#

Not like the relic blade where it's still a big fuckoff sword

drowsy perch
#

idk what mk im using but i do a heavy into 2 lights

#

after activating

crimson garden
#

Gotta turn the smack back on

drowsy perch
#

and then just loop that

hollow ibex
drowsy perch
#

its very "skill" based

hollow ibex
#

way stronger than chord

kind arch
#

seems like it takes some time getting used to

crimson garden
drowsy perch
#

i say "skill" because its fairly simple to use, you just need to know the timing

kind arch
#

its kinda slow compared to just running around with the combar knife or chainsword

drowsy perch
hollow ibex
drowsy perch
hollow ibex
#

heavies are basically never used unless you're using mk3 (why)

drowsy perch
#

heavies for sunder

#

i forget what mk

#

the heavies do go hard

#

if you can get it right

hollow ibex
#

no reason to use it

#

simply attack more often

#

the only time might be mutie one shot?

#

can't think of anything else

tall torrent
drowsy perch
#

hard to do when the activation is like 2 seconds of potentional cucking

hollow ibex
#

it's really not that bad with animation cancel

drowsy perch
hollow ibex
#

unless once again you're using mk3 KEKW_ogryn

drowsy perch
#

idk animation cancel and i can tbe bothered to cheese it

hollow ibex
#

it's not cheese...

drowsy perch
#

im never gonna remember to do it

hollow ibex
#

it's literally a game mechanic lol

#

it's super easy

#

activate and block and let go

#

or activate > push

drowsy perch
#

ya but im gonna end up like

#

not doing it idk

tall torrent
#

it'll become second nature lol

drowsy perch
#

its like how dclaw has a parry

hollow ibex
#

gonna have a real bad time with ps if you don't animation cancel

drowsy perch
#

i always forget it exists

drowsy perch
#

heavy attack

#

my first nature is

#

light attack

#

like half my builds are spam or hold m1

crimson garden
#

Never could get them quite right in VT2

drowsy perch
#

hmmm

#

so

#

WS gives 33% ranged crit chance per melee stacked

#

which is 10

#

so you get 100% crits for 10 seconds pretty easily

#

combine that with no ammo consumption on las crits

#

and you got ultra infinite laser

#

obv running infernus

#

not sure what i should put the 2nd one

#

trying out immune to ranged on close kill rn

#

then dumdum

hollow ibex
somber axle
#

if it was 100% crit for 10 seconds that would be broken

#

LOL

#

just for the next shot

#

but it's funny to imagine how crazy that would be

hollow ibex
#

yeah imagine a vraks with 100% crit rate for 10s

#

you could prob delete a boss in a single mag

drowsy perch
#

WAIT

#

i know why

#

because no consumption on crit

#

you never actually shoot

#

so as long as you keep hitting a crit you have a fuckton of crit

drowsy perch
#

its very silly

tall torrent
#

due to crit string

willow prairie
#

bro been spreading misinformation left and right

tall torrent
#

misinformation is only cool if I'm the one spreading them

drowsy perch
#

i will get video of test

#

after diner

tall torrent
# drowsy perch idk that seems to be how it works

after first shot which can kick off crit string, during which crit calculation does not apply, the shot following the last crit string's end will not get any crit chance bonus from WS and roll RNG as normal

drowsy perch
#

maybe its a live server thing

#

nothing in an actual match i can ever replicate in psykhanium

#

but i had a 100% critrate (as shown by the crit chance mod) and an ammo that only ever went down on shots i missed

#

until the 10s was gone

#

the actual game servers have insane wacko shit that only works in the servers

#

like being able to stack stimm and supply on scum

#

for 2x the stim

tall torrent
quiet lark
#

p sure show crit chance is just not always right, have had it show 100% before and then not crit

steep flower

drowsy perch
#

is shred on dclaw good

#

??

#

is it literally just that it also adds it to allies?

#

why is it worded like that

shrewd topaz
#

yes

silver patrol
drowsy perch
#

i have made a silly build

#

crit build reconlas (fastest firing) with infernus and brittle talent

#
  • WS because it makes it even faster
agile forge
#

So, the same silly build that every veteran not running plasma does KEKW_ogryn

#

Although I tend to prefer Focus Target with my recon Flamer knockoff

drowsy perch
#

idk if its the one everyone runs

#

but its very fun

You can use the power falchion with paths sniper build in the pinned guide and do fine

(The bare minimum)

turbid ibex
#

Complete dogshit against ragers tho

tawny badger
#

complete dogshit against what

turbid ibex
#

@tall torrent redirect fire is saying +2% damage per stack instead of 2.5%

near abyss
#

But isn't 3a better than Mk5 damage wise?

heavy rover
#

yeah, it's a tradeoff between charge rate and outright damage

#

so a slower charge rate is a whole lot more punishing if you miss

near abyss
#

So the heaviest variant is dog?

turbid ibex
#

All 3 marks are good

#

Its pretty much up to preference which one you pick

quiet lark
#

respectfully how is that ur conclusion from that message lol

turbid ibex
#

Though mk4 has fallen off a bit cause less crushers and ogryns in general

tame lodge
turbid ibex
#

But its still solid

steel lagoon
#

I think the only thing that is strictly worse across the three variants is the bayonet on the heavy. The rest is preference

tame lodge
#

There's just not enough worthy targets for it

#

So it felt offended and ended up letting their younger siblings shine

I think
I miss my crushers

replace maniac and carapace with unyielding and flak

merry shard

But I need carapace for maulers and shit

#

Might switch maniac with unyielding though

turbid ibex
#

and you need flak for scab gunners and shotgunners

merry shard
#

Oh

#

Lucius does not need flak to kill those

#

I instakill them

#

lmao

#

I even cleave through and get collateral kills on them

#

My biggest concern is boss damage

I guess I could swap maniac with unyielding

yeah if you just spam m1 with your melee you do more damage

#

even with no investement

#

they also have a damage cap i'm pretty sure and melee attacks almost always reach that cap

hybrid plover

#

yeah, that is true. I tend to run more team-focus builds so that's why I prefer VoC and even smokes lately

hybrid plover
#

Having foresight of where enemies come from, combined with the ranged damage pushing breakpoints, and stun immunity giving you constant wiggle room if you're caught slipping by a poxwalker or something, all adds up very well for Helbore in particular

#

It's support in the sense that you can just shut down specialists before they become an actual issue in the first place.

#

And admittedly, the setup you'd want to use Helbore on, actually does provide some room for Born Leader

turbid ibex
#

also toughness regen means gunners and such dont put as much pressure on you

hybrid plover
#

So it can very much be support for your team when you're constantly circumventing chip damage for them just by being next to them and doing your job.

heavy rover

fair point

drowsy perch
#

i love funny laser drill build

tidal spade
#

Which of the revolvers is better? Making a cowboy build and the one where you brace instead of aiming would be appropriate but it deals less damage so idk

#

Does have more ammo tho which is nice

tall torrent
tidal spade
drowsy perch
#

its got horrible accuracy all round so its kinda just like a shitty closeranged revolver

#

lot less armor punch too

tidal spade
drowsy perch
#

im sure theres a use for it but overall the precise revolver is way better

#

and one of the strongest weapons in the game

#

if not the outright strongest in raw/crit damage

#

ranged weapon*

hybrid plover

But it doesn't bode well for vet specifically

I'd run it on Arby or Scum though

Smoke grenades should extinguish Scab Bomber's flames

#

I will say it here and i will say it over and over again.

heavy rover
#

agreed

quiet lark
#

it'd be nice but it's not like smokes need to be stronger

hollow ibex
#

smokes can be good in havoc but they're honestly kinda pointless in anything lower

quiet lark
hollow ibex
#

arguably is doing all the heavy lifting in that statement

quiet lark
#

point is smokes are very good as is and don't need a buff

final charm
#

smokes should be a good pick all around but they fall into niche. 🥀

slow sky
#

smokes are good at what they do and what they do is good

#

the literal only problem is the visibility

quiet lark
#

smokes aren't really niche, i wouldn't say that

slow sky
#

smokes are like a psuedo psyker bubble

#

in terms of function

#

thats not niche at all

final charm
#

whar

slow sky
#

it does require more proper execution than just
throw at horde
throw at ogryn

slow sky
# final charm whar

Smoke cloud effect: 5.5m radius, lasts for 15s; disables HUD nameplates of allies; players inside smoke are considered 'concealed' which alters the line of sight distance requirement of enemies during target selection; if a player holds aggro of an enemy who is in melee combat, the smoke has no effect on enemy perception; if a player holds aggro of an enemy who is in ranged combat, then the smoke makes the ranged enemy stop firing and change positions (this includes Sniper; Reaper is less likely to reposition); Gunners and Reaper when they are inside the smoke cloud's area of effect themselves keep firing at a player's last known position; Pox Hounds cannot lock on a player who is inside smoke cloud's area of effect and will keep circling the cloud; Trapper and Flamers need to be closer to players in order to start their shooting action; no effect on Bombers, Mutants, Poxburster

hollow ibex
#

how is that not niche lol

#

bubble and smoke really don't add much value outside of high havoc

final charm
#

Games enemy AI is just too fucky for me to rely on smokes, that is my personal opinion.

#

I may suck and my smokeless havoc 40 runs will probably suffer, but I enjoy the other nades far more.

quiet lark
hollow ibex
#

smokes aren't

#

lol

heavy rover
#

yeah, outside of havoc you can run even the most shitpost build and be fine

serene bough

smokes have value in solos and duos auric

thanks for making my point

smokes are irrelevant, so i don't care

ok you don't need to care

can we kiss already uwugryn

hollow ibex
#

i would care if smokes got some additional utility

#

but it prob wouldn't ever happen

quiet lark
#

why don't you go argue with Cole if u think smokes r useless 😭

#

or aren't niche

final charm
#

hold it, niche and useless are not the same.

hollow ibex
#

well he's not the one dying on this hill, why would i argue with him 🤔

quiet lark
#

wdym dying on this hill, we expressed the same opinion and you decided to chase it with me

hollow ibex
#

yeah you're dying alone on this hill KEKW_ogryn

#

for whatever reason

quiet lark

sure you can disagree with r

me

hollow ibex

but maybe you can pop a smoke

and get off on it

idk why you're being rude like

i don't think i said anything against you

#

exe stance is an absolute hard counter to specialists

#

if youre running stealth and shout your gonna struggle more

#

and have less control over the game

worthy dragon
hollow ibex
#

is it?

serene bough
#

you could make the same argument for bubble to an extent, but inferno staff 5-fold tops vet mixed horde damage, doesn't obscure your vision, and provides buffs to the team

hollow ibex
#

i mean ES does actually counter specialists pretty hard

quiet lark
#

it's pretty hot for the general community rn

#

i think shout is still seen as the meta option by many

tame lodge
#

Idk about the vision part dawg

serene bough
tidal fox
worthy dragon
#

I mean, shout is just amazing i could rev everyone in exchange for ES?

tidal fox

depending on your skill level

the few times ive played with smoke vets the amount of smoke spam is obnoxious

hmm 5 foot smoke wall or 15 foot funnel of blue flame…

tidal fox

it just needs more skill

tame lodge

💀

tidal fox
#

stealth fills a niche exe doesnt fill tho

worthy dragon
#

But regardless, i stand by my statement

tidal fox
#

youd have to find a teammate that replaces your shout tho

#

prolly gonna need a chorus zealot

worthy dragon
#

Smoke greandes should extinguish Scab Bomber's flames.

tidal fox
#

or your stealth also replaced by zealot

tidal fox
#

smoke is already really good in the highest difficultiues

why would you be dying on a hill bro 💀

well firstly, they

tame lodge
#

No no I agree
#buffSmokes

hollow ibex
#

god forbid it gets a bit more utility to make it relevant outside of h40 lol

tidal fox
#

I mean what else are you thinking to add to smoke to make it more viable

#

I dont mind it sticking in a niche

hollow ibex
#

would be my vote

quiet lark
#

but i said exactly what Dave said lol, that if it were to extinguish fire from bombs it would be too strong

hollow ibex
#

i know path also has ideas

final charm
hollow ibex
#

i mean if you only want smoke to be good in h40, keep it the way it currently is

quiet lark
hollow ibex
#

i will simply continue not taking it

tidal fox
#

Im sorry this is outrageous

hollow ibex
#

there are ways to balance it

#

it could be a delayed effect

#

it wouldn't even outlast pox gas

#

it'd still be weaker than bubble

tidal fox
#

but then smoke would dominate higher difficulties even more

#

and be even more clutch

hollow ibex
#

smoke dominates higher difficulties? KEKW_ogryn

tidal fox
#

ok who da hell still running krak

quiet lark
#

in hk they only accept vets if u take smokes so i would say ues

hollow ibex

chinese meta is chinese meta

i don't give a fuck what the chinese think is meta

tidal fox

if youre running krak you have paranoia

#

I mean regardless

worthy dragon
tidal fox
#

bombers are a good place within the game right now

#

the only counter to them is killing them

#

their presence makes the game difficult and should not have any counter to their abilities through blitzes imo

hollow ibex
#

well you're trying to party up with people who get off on CBT

#

so nobody is going to be right in the head 🤷

eh i think it's dumb some of the spots bombers can throw while being completely unshootable tbh

Ogryn in the corner with the DH they also woke up:

hybrid plover

I've had ogryns just go and deliberately do that without saying a word only for the game to snowball because they expected the team to deal with it

#

Except it's a bit different when I have a horde that makes up the population of Madagascar

I always think it's funny in DT when people purposefully wake up a havoc DH cause "haha I'm gonna kill it" then the run snowballs out of control

hybrid plover
#

I'm not even mad about waking up the DH

I like fighting DHs

It's more when it's the person that can't actually do anything by themselves to it also decides to take it upon themselves to make it everyone else's problem

Because death is better than shame.

Is why young me would spend 4 hours soloing a raid intended for 10.

Everyone left/gave up.

hybrid plover
#

Honestly another thing about the winning

#

This is exactly why I don't like demotion.

#

Like it's just annoying that you can have a 40. Can't demote anymore and all but naturally you are still gonna get people that aren't and will join a 40 expecting a win with the most optimal setups possible to do so
