[violet hornet]

You wouldn't want your expensive Mac to suddenly lose pro status because you bought pauper wheels instead, would you?

[sage river]

Ain't too happy with Samsung either, the new S24U, the main advertising point was AI, and by 2026 they'll charge a monthly subscription to use said AI

[sterile stone]

I figured Mac’s to be more of a status symbol

[frozen glen]

apple knows their customers

[fading vale]

I've hated on apple for at least since 2010, fuck apple

[coarse birch]

People also say apple is more user friendly and like

I dont agree

[fading vale]

but people also have no idea how computers work anymore

[coarse birch]

You also cant fucking upgrade anything

Other than maybe ram

[sage river]

Google, despite being pretty much the idea of a dystopian company, is somehow the most fair large phone company
Microsoft is also pretty fair though, game pass is the best deal ever even though I don't use it

[sage river]

Planned obsolescence

[violet hornet]

It's a way for the tech illiterate to try to one up the tech literate - with a shitty overpriced fashion statement device

[sharp zodiac]

Ok my fingers hurt

Back to darktide

[coarse birch]

Do you play on a box

[brazen linden]

didnt see the question, but im currently running.... the XV eviscerator, the mk9 heavy, the mk4 devil claw, and planning to build the XIIIg chainsword

[sharp zodiac]

Yeah

[coarse birch]

Nice

[sterile stone]

That’s one way to word it I suppose

[sage river]

Their version of planned obsolescence is so severe that by the time they release something, technology is so far ahead that they can pretty much guarantee another several releases even if tech development comes to a halt

[sharp zodiac]

Won't lie idk why it took me this long to realize using a pad is better than using a stick for moves

[fading vale]

the hsword and claw might struggle on cara but otherwise should be ok

[sage river]

They combine planned obsolescence with just releasing devices 4-5 years after they were already dated

[violet hornet]

I replaced an iPhone screen recently for a friend and the new screen needed a serial number transferred from the old screen's onboard memory to be fully compatible with the phone

[sage river]

Yeah, they literally serialize the back glass if I'm not mistaken

[coarse birch]

Claw parry is still decent bs cara with like duellist and stuff isnt it

[fading vale]

the parry specifically yeah

[sage river]

I've hated Apple even before Tim Cook ngl

[violet hornet]

Having apple replace it would have been $300, the original sale price of the entire phone

[median steeple]

bros the OG hater

[brazen linden]

god i love the trick apple tried to pull against the charger regulations from the EU

[coarse birch]

Yeah anytime you break something apple its more to fix it ive heard

[sage river]

I'm not gonna say androids were better from the start, but I definitely preferred how they worked with an open source model

[violet hornet]

I hated apple since they had those colorful enclosures and awful round one button mice

[mystic ether]

takes time for each setup but some inputs I almost only do on stick if I have access to it or analog for pad.

[sage river]

Apple was always a gated community full of wannabe celebrities

Paying 3 times what their phone was worth for a brand

[mystic ether]

i actually don't know about this but can you even functionall jerryrig replacement parts for some of their newer devices?

Or are those proprietary on the market too?

[coarse birch]

Youd need to really know what your doing

[mystic ether]

mm

[coarse birch]

Otherwise proprietary

[sage river]

I would be willing to bet you couldn't replace the aluminum on the edges without a serial number, so even if you can good luck

[median steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/izzy-gif-26084332

[violet hornet]

Yeah you can get 3rd party components to work but often they need special setup or configuration to work right

[median steeple]

ill be here all year

[coarse birch]

For some of the all in ones you need to literally cut the screen ojt

To get to the guts

[mystic ether]

...

yeah nah

pass.

[sage river]

I just hate how iPhones are built with more upgrades to preventing third party reparability than upgrades to anything that makes them better to use

[coarse birch]

Cant do suction cup anymore

[brazen linden]

how about welding the battery to the motherboard

[violet hornet]

All in ones are always the worst but the apple ones are exceptionally bad yes

[mystic ether]

If I can't even crack my shit open without literally taking the risk of actually destroying it that's a hell no to me.

[brazen linden]

cuz fck replacing batteries right?

[sage river]

I'm pretty sure with the 15s you need to cook the screen to get the glue loose first at that

[coarse birch]

You actually could with the older ones

[coarse birch]

Yep

[violet hornet]

The model that you need huge suction cups and a heat gun for to remove the screen to access the interior is the worst offender

[mystic ether]

Oh yeah I remember when that was the standard arrangement.

[sage river]

Fairphone, on the other hand, absolutely incredible company

[mystic ether]

I never owned an iphone.

[coarse birch]

And even then you can only change Hdd/ram

[violet hornet]

To even attempt it you'll need extra equipment and a replacement adhesive gasket

[sage river]

Their design is meant to be as repairable as possible

[coarse birch]

The really old ones you could snap back into place

But those are long gone

[sage river]

Same, I never even wanted an iphone.

[fleet zealot]

i am not making a return to darktide today nexus mods isn't loading for me

[mystic ether]

I just can't afford phones in general lmao

[violet hornet]

I know someone that did this themselves, put in a non-oem hdd, and now the mac randomly turns itself off because it wasn't an OEM hard drive

[covert needle]

any glued device is bad news. at that point, just laminate the whole thing in thermal epoxy or something and get the form factor down as small as possible

[mystic ether]

All of mine are conscripted service plan "upogrades"

[coarse birch]

Rip

[sage river]

I mean there's budget phones - ah conscripted service plans

[mystic ether]

The phone I have now isn't remotely close to what I'd actually want when I start to learn some things.

[sharp zodiac]

Ramlethal I mostly use the pad besides the dauro

Still getting the feel on pad but every other move is easier on it

[sage river]

Do they by any chance force you to use iPhones

[mystic ether]

It's fine, for now at least.

[mystic ether]

thankfully no

[violet hornet]

He's still an apple shill ofc

[sage river]

Thank god, they aren't that bad

[sharp zodiac]

Very glad I got into this game

[sage river]

Trust me, as long as you didn't get Apple, you're pretty much a free man

[mystic ether]

My old provider got merged and I already know where some of my scrapped data got dumped after another breach attack.

thankfully I'm a financial dud as I am now so fraud isn't even worth it.

[sage river]

Damn

[covert needle]

if you own a smartphone you are probably not a free man lmao

[sage river]

Such is true, but the least you can say is that it isn't as egregious as apple

[mystic ether]

oh yeah nah that kind of thing pushed me further into layman opsec. Eventually I'm learning learning this shit.

Internet is way too scary.

[heavy arch]

anyone who applied for a federal job in the 2010s had their ssn stolen by china

the govt gave me years of free identity theft monitoring

[mystic ether]

Knowing just how much people just, have your info on file, legal or not is horrifying.

[sage river]

There was a quote from RDR2 that I think fit really well

[mystic ether]

You don't need to "hide anything". Leave me...alone? That's where I'm coming from.

[heavy arch]

whats the quote

[sage river]

Ah there it is, "Only the feeblest of men take jobs in the government."

[mystic ether]

You wouldn't just tell someone your life story that you just met, same behind the keyboard. you don't know who is who until you get to know them,

[heavy arch]

i have two bum knees so yeah

pretty feeble

[mystic ether]

but with things like an advert id uh, plenty of people "know" you.

[covert needle]

my last smartphone was chinese, and it came bundled with malware in the OS update app that packages your emails, texts, metadata, etc, and sends it to a black box in china

[heavy arch]

also i wanted a pension and raises just for breathing

[covert needle]

only found out about it because of a blogpost from a security researcher

[sage river]

Never buy a Chinese smartphone, this also aligns with Apple since they've shipped their factories off to there

Never buy a chinese smartphone that isn't from a non-chinese company at least, you're always at risk from the ccp

[median steeple]

fuck phones at this point im just gonna start using messaging ravens

[covert needle]

i live in the UK, we have probably the most sophisticated domestic spying operation currently active outside of china

[mystic ether]

Can't remember which one in particular at the moment but it's chinese manufacturer and they actually got a solid enough record. Granted nothing we're using is at all passed a certain point is "safe"

[sage river]

Samsung is probably my go-to, just because they're made and owned in South Korea

[covert needle]

china can have my fumbled jokes and ball pics

[sage river]

Anyways I don't mind them having what they could possibly have, any truly sensitive info isn't stored on my phone

[mystic ether]

If you're American, your intelligence agencies literally can just pull entire data streams on you from just about any platform you make use of.

don't need the ccp for jack shit at that point

[sage river]

That's true

[mystic ether]

hell, if you're under the uh

[sage river]

Luckily I didn't commit any felonies by accident, otherwise I'd be in trouble

p cool spy prorgam name

[mystic ether]

You don't matter until you do in most cases. Further, you don't need to be guilty of anything. With the right jury and pr, you can be anyone to anyone that doesn't know you.

[sage river]

Imo at least with America you won't be executed for saying something, so I think it's fine

[median steeple]

God I love being a part of the west

[mystic ether]

Yeah, you'll just get hatecrimed.

Or swatted.

Or shot in the face by a cop.

[covert needle]

i hope they dont pull my zealot scoreboards

[sage river]

Yep, government is ok but the people are horrible

[heavy arch]

none of those are exclusive to america

[mystic ether]

That's not the point.

The point is is that it's an ongoing problem.

And hell, depending on your demographic if we're talking about america, you're already cooked by default.

likelihood of getting wrapped up in something that can have case against you jumps just off your zip code.

[dense valve]

sorry to derail the chat off topic dudes

[sage river]

I can't say I've had that problem, though I don't live in a city where that's probably much worse

does anyone happen to know if thunderous has a max application limit per hit?

[mystic ether]

no worries, I got you. Been exposed to and experienced plenty.

[median steeple]

I- I have never thought about thunderous like that before

[sage river]

I dunno, I wouldn't imagine so

[dense valve]

why wouldnt you imagine so lol

plenty similar blessings can only apply to 3 targets per swing

[sage river]

Oh you meant like that

I thought you meant if you could somehow apply 5975235 stacks in one hit

I'm not familiar with blessings sorry

[fading vale]

cant say I've heard of skullcrusher/thunderous being limited by cleave targets

[sage river]

But it probably doesn't have an application limit higher than what you can hit anyways

[fading vale]

but maybe it's a thing

[south folio]

i'd assume that thunderous applies to all targets given how it interacts with dots

[fading vale]

I would also assume so

[sage river]

^

[dense valve]

ty

[fading vale]

thunderous isn't really recommended for anything though outside of memes

[sage river]

But it's funny

[dense valve]

yeah its for a memehammer build

[fading vale]

oh uh, definitely wouldn't run on hammer even for memes

[dense valve]

if im swinging L1s on crucis only

i think imma need it

[fading vale]

[coarse birch]

What in the challenge run

[dense valve]

😄

[fading vale]

it'll help you on maniac normals but not really anything else

[ripe quest]

The best meme builds are the ones that make you go "Why did that even remotely work".

[coarse birch]

Some stuff like illisi blaze meme build works just cause gray illisi is good

[ripe quest]

I think my favorite example rn is the Agri Railgun setup for Zealot

[sage river]

Excuse me the WHAT

[ripe quest]

hmm yes I'll take a Mauler or less 1 shot with... unlimited cleave.

[sage river]

Surely thats not a viable build

[ripe quest]

Agri Shotgun, No Respite/Scattershot + Man-Stopper. Knife if you have scattershot, other two with No Respite. Shroudfield and a crit CDR setup. Duellist is important.

[sage river]

The stuff you'd have to sacrifice

[dense valve]

i figure maniacs and crushers

as im only allowed to hite elites

its probably worth

[frosty herald]

Rip mal

[ripe quest]

Basically the entire thing revolves around getting Shroudfield up and using the Agri's slug and the finesse mod on it to just nuke everything in a line.

What happened to Mal I saw they were gone

[median steeple]

Did something happen

[frosty herald]

[gray ice]

They got my dog

[lusty turtle]

Mal turned into a porn bot, the final form of all zealot players 😔

[ripe quest]

Mods are the easiest way to do it. InventoryStats iirc has it.

[gray ice]

For most weapons it's 5% as that is zealots base crit afaik. Knife is 20%?

[ripe quest]

Most weapons are 5%, ranged weapons have crit chains that skew it, and some weapons are outliers.

The only 2 times I've been in a vc here have been when Mal pings me to enter a VC.

Some people have the shittiest mics on the market

Public VCs are required to have wind tunnel mics

[lusty turtle]

did i end up joinin for one of those or a different time?

Brand new to the game, literally just launched it a couple minutes ago. I was told the Zealot class would be what I'm looking for, for a speedy movement build. Any tips or things I should do when starting my character?

[gray ice]

Don't be afraid to dive ranged patrols and get comfortable with Dodge sliding

Immediately unbind jump from your spacebar

And most weapons are good, so try things and find what you like

[proven nimbus]

I come from a lot of movement games so if I can abuse the movement as much as I can in ghostrunner and turbo overkill, I'm gonna be happy

[mystic ether]

Focus on developing your basic defense versus disablers and familiarize yourself with what vin brought up.

[mystic ether]

this won't be that level of movement but enough.

[gray ice]

Movement ain't gonna be like that.

[proven nimbus]

I'm aware

[tropic pelican]

Side dodge everything

[median steeple]

I launched darktide just for steam to crash

amazing

[gray ice]

But there's movement tech to learn

[fading vale]

just be like me and don't

[ripe quest]

There's not a whole lot of movement tech, it's fairly grounded. Though, in pins there's a message talking about Swift Certainty. You can do that movement as long as you have stamina normally.

only time it matters is for dialogue variables between characters. Ultimately cosmetic.

Aint no way laz didnt unbind jump from space

Laz you are too good at the game for space jump

[fading vale]

bro

[mystic ether]

didn't know people had that problem tbh but no biggie

[median steeple]

it's so fucking over man

[fading vale]

crucis wants to jump and I don't want to rebind jump

[proven nimbus]

also why do you unbind jump from space

[median steeple]

they filled the Chicago rat hole

[mystic ether]

Input errors from the player I suppose. Just limits the chances of the player doing it unintentionally in tougher situations. I wouldn't say it's necessary but it can help.

[proven nimbus]

pfft

[coarse birch]

Do you not get it on accident

[mystic ether]

Rarely.

[coarse birch]

When dodging

[proven nimbus]

that's a stupid reason

[mystic ether]

But I just slow down at that point tbh

[proven nimbus]

skill issue ig

[fading vale]

eh, it's not that uncommon that you accidentally jump when meaning to dodge and it can cause issues sometimes

[coarse birch]

Yeah

Your dodging constantly in this game

No reason not to

[mystic ether]

Oh yeah, speaking of slowing down, highly recommend just letting yourself drink in dangerous situations while still doing what you can to stay alive. Don't always act fast for speed's sake. Deliberate application of defense is often better and helps you grow with your awareness and familiarity with certain situations.

Once your defense is solid, experiment with risk-taking. You'll likely be playing zealot so you'll get used to that kind of method very quickly imo.

[proven nimbus]

I come from ghostrunner, turbo overkill, titanfall 2, soulsbornring, warframe, doom eternal, and ultrakill so I won't have to worry about accidentally pressing the wrong button lol

[ripe quest]

Womp womp it's a preference of keybinds you of all people should know people do that

[south folio]

nah he's pro gamer

[proven nimbus]

but space

why rebind space

that's just comical

[fading vale]

you say this, but it's going to happen and take mild getting used to but it's not an issue, I still have them both bound to the same button

[coarse birch]

Well space can still be dodge

[mystic ether]

Space is for jump and dodge, that's really all it is. Some people unbind it just to not have the issue happen and then learn with the new setup.

[south folio]

there's an option to disable jump on sideways/backwards dodge nowadays right

[mystic ether]

I just happen to never really change my default controls.

[ripe quest]

Movement players that come from source games rebind it to scroll wheel what does it matter.

[proven nimbus]

I'm no stranger to rebinding things like that, but jump is always space and dodge can be something else

[mystic ether]

minus the special attack button

[coarse birch]

Your just making space on thing instead of 2

[fading vale]

also you can't dodge in place with them on the same button or something like that

[coarse birch]

Your dodging way more than jumping which is why i kept it on space

[proven nimbus]

Hi, I'm a movement player that comes from source games and I don't do that goofy shit lol

[south folio]

i come from source and I do that

[mystic ether]

just dive in then yk?

[fading vale]

yeah rebinding shit like jump to scroll wheel can go to hell

[mystic ether]

can challenge yourself as much as you want in this game too so

[south folio]

i'm certainly doing that on games without autohop

[north sedge]

I bind jump to printscreen

I am not doing a macro for it.

Is mercy killer worth using?

It's ok but Precog will be better.

Don't run a bleed blessing to utilize it, just pivot off of Scourge.

You cook pasta without breaking it

Well... It was how I was taught by my parents >.<'

break them while they are in the box in half :/

but only the spaghetti noodles

The only time I think you would do that is if you're cooking them in a really small pot.

What is the difference between a ferret and a weasel

[median steeple]

https://tenor.com/view/shadowheart-bg3-shadowheart-my-beloved-gif-1326273189349584840

[fleet zealot]

domestication and relatives in the animal kingdom

ferrets are closer to skunks than they are weasels (the domestic ferret)

[ornate bone]

Big if true

So the domesticated ferret can also be called a weasel?

[median steeple]

I love taxonomy so much

[fleet zealot]

okay pausing my game for this

[agile pivot]

The way to separate the boys and the men

[fleet zealot]

they could be called weasals im not a scientist so i dont care

but domestic ferrets are closer to skunks

[agile pivot]

is if they think shadowheart or laezel is better

[fleet zealot]

but the wild blackfooted ferret is a weasel

[mystic ether]

Eh

[median steeple]

depends on the playthrough

[mystic ether]

Halsin and Karlach.

[median steeple]

all depends on what my character is and what ending im going for

[agile pivot]

Realizing that baezel was there the whole time

[mystic ether]

that is all for me. Maybe astarion and laezel. Will doesn't get mentioned because he's guaranteed for me anyway.

gale's not my type. cool guy though.

[agile pivot]

who the fuck would actually pick halsleep over minthara

[median steeple]

he comes on too strong but I love gale so much

[mystic ether]

People with taste.

How would admech play you recon. I would dig being able to deploy servitors as combat abilities.

always there, always a potential threat. Doesn't matter how big or small you are. There's a goblin with a poisoned arrow with your name on it.

[light holly]

Its just the rules

Boring ahh appearances

Goblin piss arrow meta

As long as the goblins in the fiction in question aren't suspiciously anti-semetic, I'm down for it.

[agile pivot]

Same goes for tieflings, they had to make karlach as different as possible from the average tiefling tabletop pc so that she would be likeable

People interested in fantasy need more imagination sometimes.

[median steeple]

its not unwelcome...

[mystic ether]

Tieflings are awesome.

[ripe quest]

Graia Brauto has an alt fire with a higher fire rate than the hipfire. It's the fastest a Brauto can dump damage. The Graia IAG is just Columnus but better handling and damage falloff but has worse firerate and ammo.

[sharp zodiac]

That was personality A talking

I am interested in discovery as a stranger

I just kind of grew up around a time where everyone wouldn't shut the hell up about dragons and all the dragon fiction was just about always the same.

So I just kind of developed the hateration out of spite. /shrug

Pointy hat propaganda

I think there's something fun about alignment if you're actually willing to explore the implications of stuff

rather than just "I'm lawful good so that means I'm not allowed to let anyone have fun"

[agile pivot]

Imagine needing a chart to define something that’s infinitely more complex than NINE SQUARES can ever be

[mystic ether]

incorrect. Uninterested in dealing with apex predator species with magic and eons of life compared to mine.

if they're cool, cool.

fuck em otherwise.

[torn stream]

it being more complex than the 9 squares is why it's interesting imo

[mystic ether]

they say nothing, waiting for their black whelp to hatch

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[agile pivot]

Thats why I dislike the nine squares

Also cuz arbitrary racial alignments

Cringe!

[torn stream]

oh don't get me wrong I fucking hate racial alignments too

[ornate bone]

Fuck class and racial alignments

[torn stream]

there's some fun stuff to be done with cultural alignments though

Personally been getting more into blades in the dark.

Love that ttrpg.

Lawful good monk my ass, I'm a ninja assassin

[mystic ether]

and there's this afrofantasy kind of dnd-inspired thing but it's actually phenomenal how the people on the project fixed it up.

Really really dope,.

[torn stream]

on the note of culture and DnD, would y'all mind if I share a character I made for a future campaign set in Ravnica? (Heroforge model)

[mystic ether]

Is it a dimir sleeper agent throwaway?

[torn stream]

nope!

[mystic ether]

Orzov defector?

That would be offtopic

Dnd vampires gotta be the lamest vamps in fiction

that's an archeologist college of lore

[torn stream]

Bards can be fun if you don't just do the default "I'm fucking everyone in sight" that so many folks associate with the class imo

[mystic ether]

Did college of uh...whispers I think.

[agile pivot]

theres like 5 chr casters and you choose the sex meme one

[fleet zealot]

slapped on asexuality and boom, stereotypes broken

[mystic ether]

you're assuming that that's what I'm doing.

[mystic ether]

Do you just not engage with anything that isn't stereotypes?

no snark just curious.

[ornate bone]

Fighter, artist and loremaster in one

[torn stream]

I mean I'm definitely not doing it as a sex meme character, I'm playing him as an anarchist who wants to get more people in on the good work of the Gruul Clans

[mystic ether]

Plus, I'll play a character that's sexual if I want. no sweat. not like they're just all over the plce being gross/weird about it lol

[fleet zealot]

i think my horniest character....

was a gnome illusionist

[torn stream]

he'll shout at some Azorius or Boros enforcer that he fucked their dad as he's running away from the scene of the crime, but that's just to rile them up

[mystic ether]

and plus, artists are hot so. stay hatin ig

I wouldn't necessarily call this lad nice-looking since not only is he Gruul but he's Gruul who's gone all-in on a punk aesthetic and vibe, but I get where you're coming from

[fleet zealot]

i ain't got no rhythm tho

[ornate bone]

Fighters who see combat as a deadly dance steal all the pussy

[mystic ether]

think less and just move yk.

you'll get used to it the more you just let yourself enjoy moving your body if that's something that interests you.

but this is coming from someone that always jumps in on dance circles and jams anyway so idk. not special I just can't not move to fun music

[ornate bone]

Normalize dancing alone at home

[north torrent]

Why is it I can only get randos with veterans?

[fleet zealot]

idk i think i jsut have that secret autistic rizz or something

[ornate bone]

I changed your settings

[fleet zealot]

i've been hit on by like, 3 women which is 3 more than it should be

[torn stream]

It's a social experiment to see how long you can go without breaking

Keep going

[north torrent]

Getting damn close

[mystic ether]

energy you put out will get picked up by whoever is interested in it. don't put too much pressure on yourself where you cna.

oh yeah gen chat is full of folks who are straight-up illiterate, don't mind them

[ornate bone]

Anyway... thanks for responding, at least

[torn stream]

unfortunately there isn't anything special at play

how does Swift Certainty work? i assume it won't let me just... sprint towards a gunner and be safe.

[torn stream]

just unfortunate twist of fate

[south folio]

i stopped playing psyker since it's been getting boring for me and the lack of a precision force staff has made me very sad

[agile pivot]

If I could I would forgo my gun for another melee weapon

I've also had this problem recently

Also bolter zealots have made a resurgence I've noticed

Hmm... bolters

I dont really feel like any of the ranged weapons besides the zarona are even worth using

Yup. Agri shotty is lots of fun

I think something's wrong with me

I started barking while beating the shit out of a rager

[unique radish]

at least I can steal level 4 bloodletter off of it

[brave iris]

so how does Swift Certainty work? it says "always count as Dodging while sprinting, even if Stamina is depleted". But surely that doesn't count if you're running directly towards the shooter?

[split ibex]

Honestly I'd take bloodthirsty

[agile pivot]

Use the mk2 evis like a man

Memorize this combo

[cinder wedge]

https://tenor.com/view/stunned-wow-omg-lego-batman-lego-batman-movie-gif-7647770

[split ibex]

Pretty sure the angle requirements still apply

[unique radish]

I'm normally a Mk4 Chaxe Enjoyer

[split ibex]

But you count as dodging even when stamina is 0

[brave iris]

what angle requirements? if you're sprinting perpendicularly to a shooter you don't need to dodge to avoid hits.

[cinder wedge]

chain axe is fun, never ran it on zealot before tho

[split ibex]

Yes, perpendicular is the angle. Though you don't have to be 100% exactly 90° I think

[unique radish]

I've always been a big fan of it, even before the buffs. But I'm insane.

[split ibex]

That's pretty crazy 😅 it used to be so bad

[brave iris]

and a "successful dodge" means a dodge you actually avoided damage with? just side-hopping a horde won't trigger a "successful dodge" unless they took a swing at you?

[onyx solar]

how does brittleness affect bosses?

[split ibex]

I think that one requires that one of the enemies has you in a swing and you hear the melee or ranged audio queue

[ripe quest]

It's fun sifting through weapons and then just like, landing on a fun one and syncing with it. Sometimes I'll just put on an Agri Brauto and get like 7-8 small elites in a mag along with all the fodder near them and I get happy.

[agile pivot]

Yeah I cant use any of the brautos

[ripe quest]

You gotta actually dodge something.

[agile pivot]

It feels like im wasting ammo to kill slower than my melee

[split ibex]

It adds stacks of effective rending to the boss up to whatever the max armor mod

[ripe quest]

With stuff that doesn't have an internal cooldown you can proc it multiple times per dodge if multiple enemies are dodged.

[brave iris]

does Vicious Offering trigger on trash mobs?

[onyx solar]

so it affects unyielding the same as it would carapace?

[ripe quest]

Depends on the weapon. Brittle goes to 40%, if you already have a 1x ADM against Unyielding you'll only get a 10% damage buff.

[split ibex]

Yes, rending and brittleness work the same for damage on everything that's not unarmored or infested

[onyx solar]

gotcha, thank you

[split ibex]

Tldr: rending good, brittleness good

[north sedge]

well, kinda depends for brittleness since thunderous is uh, not good really on most weapons

[agile pivot]

I believe that britte is a team buff

Whereas rending is solo

[cinder wedge]

are you playing on mobile

LMFAO

[split ibex]

Yes, one is a buff the other is a debuff on enemies

[north sedge]

YEA

[ripe quest]

No I'm playing with 400 FPS.

[south folio]

what the

it still works with manstopper?

[ripe quest]

mhm

[empty stump]

guys

[onyx solar]

Just toying around with this

[south folio]

WHAT

[ripe quest]

Only if it's out

[empty stump]

did fatshark just fix the ranged knockback bug

only to remove sound que from special mobs?

[ripe quest]

You can do it with Assail if you pull out a Man-Stopper shotgun during the travel iirc

[south folio]

:(

[north sedge]

sound has been an issue for a long time

[empty stump]

its way more worse now

like

5x worse

[north sedge]

nothing has changed there

[ripe quest]

Throwing Knives still inherit just about anything your weapon has at the time. Really balanced when you can 1 shot Crushers with a Rev TK

Also, Scattershot doesn't drop when you throw the knife

So it's just a 60% crit chance if you have it up

[empty stump]

it was an issue before yes, liek sometimes it would happen. but now its pretty much every second special

[ripe quest]

Yeah best solution rn is to just use a mod or two that shows when specials spawn.

[south folio]

time for josho to run scattershot manstopper to sharpen his throwing knives

[ripe quest]

There's one that is called Spidey Sense but it's so much clutter on HiStG

[empty stump]

i mean

im already running like 15 mods or something

im not even palying t heir game anymore

im playing the mod discords game at this point

[split ibex]

Yeah but that's more due to weapon swing speeds and not really a knock on brittleness

[ripe quest]

I gotta find a way to get throwing knives on my Agri Railgun setup.

[north sedge]

no they just tend to have much stronger options

[ripe quest]

No it's usually due to the weapon's ADMs and there being outright better options.

[split ibex]

Ah okay

[ripe quest]

Once you hit that 1x ADM on a weapon getting only 2.5% damage up to 10% per hit is kinda meh.

And it's per enemy

I think currently for Zealot the best use is it on Boltgun, cuts the number of shots for Crushers in half.

Makes it good with the anti-Ogryn stuff, which I personally think suits it.

[shy river]

let an orgyn get vored by a beast of nurgle so I could get an easy thammer kill, am I a bad person

[ripe quest]

How much corruption damage did he take

I cannot imagine a lot if you Thammer hit the BoN

[split ibex]

That makes sense. Reapers have some flak on their chest too iirc, though obviously you can just melee them

[shy river]

It was only for a sec

[ripe quest]

Yeah that's not too bad.

[brave iris]

if you kill several enemies with one Heavy attack, does Vicious Offering trigger once for each kill?

[ripe quest]

I think the worst thing you can do rn to a teammate with a boss is let a Chaos Spawn just munch down on them

[ripe quest]

It doesn't have an internal cooldown, if you get a bunch of kills with a heavy you'll get a bunch of procs.

[brave iris]

now i think i'm starting to see why people might prefer the Mk2 eviscerator.

[ripe quest]

Mk IV Chainsword over here getting what like 8 per swing

🙂

[agile pivot]

I find it has much more versatility and flexibility than the 15

[brave iris]

but one question about it... what's the go-to method of killing like... crushers n' maulers n' other tougher stuff, using the Mk2? the 15 has these easy-to-use strikedown heavies.

[agile pivot]

H1

[brave iris]

the side-swipe?

[agile pivot]

You can duck under and behind bulwark maul swings and end up directly behind them

[dense field]

No, it's a debuff

[ripe quest]

Heavies. I usually end up doing base heavy spam if there are multiple or if there's fodder nearby. Rev heavy if they're small in number or it's just 1.

[agile pivot]

Until fs fixes their spaghetti

[shy river]

Rending is player buff, brittleness is enemy debuff

[brave iris]

even the Heavy 1? i shouldn't like, do a L1 missed to a revved H2?

[agile pivot]

Make sure to chastise after you start sawing

[ripe quest]

It's technically a team buff since the debuff can be used by other players to do more damage.

[agile pivot]

I think h1 actually does more damage xd

[dense field]

We need a pinned manual on how to get these settings

And by we I mean me

[brave iris]

it does according to the stat breakdown, but in the psykanum a revved H2 does more than a revved H1. but not that much

[ripe quest]

Firstly if you want to direct to the H2 you just do Push -> H2. Second base H1 will do more, revved H2 will hit slightly harder. It really doesn't matter what you use.

[ripe quest]

Just ask arco

[agile pivot]

H1 also lets you cleave to whichever elite you need dead

[brave iris]

remind me why revving, hitting, then chastising while sawing, does more damage than just revving, chastising and hitting while revved?

[agile pivot]

bad code

Chastise can only count for the initial hit or the saw attack

Not both.

[ripe quest]

With chain weapons they'll only get the guaranteed crit if you do the latter. If you do the former you get the damage buff and armor downgrade + a free followup crit.

[agile pivot]

The saw total damage is typically higher than the strike damage

[ripe quest]

You used to be able to do it with Shroudfield too but they patched a bug and now it doesn't work.

[agile pivot]

I hope they fix it soon

[brave iris]

yeah... i'm getting like 700-something with rev-chastise-hit, and over double that with a rev-hit-chastise

[agile pivot]

So that I can actually use chastise to chastise and dive rather than as a damage buff

Its why im finding it difficult to not use crusher atm
