Lobotomite coded light attack combo

Sweep sweep thrust repeat

mash left click, the best combo

#

relic sword combo too big brain for meloregryn

l1 and l2 is light strikedowns

l1 > l2 > block cancel > repeat

or just l1 > l2 > h3 > h4 > repeat

hey i like the MkX

#

L3 pokey

broken walrus
#

Im using the MkX and H3 is so slow, I keep getting L3 in the middle of a horde

#

I guess I should just block cancel

#

for l1 l2

rocky nacelle
#

l1 l2 H3 feels good

drowsy steppe
#

the 2 light sweeps on mark 10, if you chain it to a heavy input you access the heavy sweeps

iirc h3 > h4 is loopable

How does Overload work? (The explosion blessing on the Relic Blade?)

gray ice
#

Very poorly stickman_hmm

Triggers an explosion on lockout, small radius and little dmg

I believe it also does something else but I'm in the clouds and cant remember properly

dodging = space bar + left, right, back, or a combo of those 3(besides left and right together)

frozen kernel
#

Honestly shocked that dodging is in the advanced tutorial in the Psykanium and not the prologue tutorial lol

#

When I was introducing a buddy to the game I was like "Holy shit do they really not teach you to dodge overheads"

placid fiber
#

and have 4 zealots

broken walrus
#

Overheads are just a nice suprise when you try to block them the first time

frozen kernel
#

Baffling how much the game doesn't tell you

#

Even more baffling that many gamers don't learn from experience

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

So Fartshart is damned if they do, damned if they dont lol

#

You'd think one single crusher overhead would be enough to teach you "I should dodge that"

#

I was watching a friend play Hogwarts Legacy earlier

#

Tutorial ogre teaches you to dodge

#

It swings

#

Game pauses

#

PRESS B TO DODGE

#

He dodges

#

It charges him again

#

He presses the parry button and gets trucked

broken walrus
#

It took me awhile to figure out that you cant dodge overheads by dodging backwards. Ate them like candy for awhile

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

Gets up, runs away

#

It charges him again

#

He tries to parry again

"Banx are you in my stream, what the fuck am I supposed to do I cant parry him"

I might do my fair share of brute forcing, but, I at least attempt to learn while doing it

It's a meme for a reason

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

Cuphead journalist being over 30 and not knowing how to both jump and move forwards

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

The greatest earth shattering realization of adulthood was realizing that most of the human race is incompetent, and most of them are still successful

#

It's a consolation if anything

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

"How did he fucking hear me"

is sprinting in full combat gear

"I dunno...crouch maybe?"

placid fiber
#

at least in skyrim I knew I was trying to sneak while in full heavy armor with a low sneak skill

frozen kernel
#

I've got an amigo who likes to talk out his ass a lot

#

Today's gem we were talking about reloading weapons

#

He says how he just counts his rounds in VR

placid fiber
sand flame
frozen kernel
#

I'm like "I won't even pretend I'm on some Sterling Archer bullshit where I'm coming out of a firefight like "Oh yeah I fired precisely 27 shots"

placid fiber
#

"and 17 of them were misses"

sullen forge
#

Telling me you didn't forcefully make a paladin build and burst every undead in sight in holy flame

placid fiber
#

Thats one of the things I never actually did in skyrim >.>

frozen kernel
#

My new rib in games is going to be "Don't worry guys, he's just counting his rounds"

placid fiber
#

I tried to sneak, I played warrior, I played mage... I never actually played paladin

frozen kernel
#

If he goes down the next time we play Darktide I'm gonna be like "Ouch, caught em while he was counting"

placid fiber
#

nor archery in any serious capacity since it's like... 2000 shots to kill anything in skyrim on normal+ difficulty

frozen kernel
#

There's a reason stealth archer is a gateway drug

sand flame
frozen kernel
#

Even if your Archery skill sucks, it's free x2 sneak attack damage on enemies until they get within battleaxe range

placid fiber
#

it usually was like... 1 sneak shot, 2 or 3 more shots, then out my melee weapon and shield come

frozen kernel
#

But because of the TES leveling system you get better by doing things

placid fiber
#

Yep

frozen kernel
#

So you get better at archery by just casually plinking a couple arrows at lone enemies

placid fiber
#

Heh

frozen kernel
#

Naturally enemy gear levels with you so you always have access to a decent bow

buoyant pecan
#

Stealth archer is a cancer upon Elder Scrolls

frozen kernel
#

So you always have an up to date ranged weapon to just "soften" targets up

placid fiber
#

one time I turned autorun with sneak on in the tutorial where the bear was... and leveled sneaking up to 100 passively

frozen kernel
#

But eventually your archery hits 100

#

And your softening kills most things outright

#

You realize then you're just a stealth archer

buoyant pecan
#

hopefully new Elder Scrolls has unarmed as a combat skill

#

miss punching weapons out of people's hands

frozen kernel
#

Yeah

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

Skyrim unarmed was just so ass in so many ways

#

And I'm not playing a disgusting catbeast

#

I just play a Breton and summon things to fight for me

placid fiber
#

yeah... even as a khajiit it sucked ass

frozen kernel
#

My SkyrimVR playthrough is just PokemonVR

#

I've got twin souls and Spellsiphon allows one extra summon because it doesnt technically count as a reanimation if you cast it first

placid fiber
sand flame
buoyant pecan
sand flame
#

spears for killing nords

placid fiber
#

I never got behind summoning because of how fast your summons died on normal

buoyant pecan
#

and the Horse riding skill tree they promised for Skyrim but left out

frozen kernel
#

I have 2 summoned mooks, 1 reanimation, and a tutorial NPC that looked like my buddy who I held onto

placid fiber
#

tbh I'm glad there wasn't a horse riding skill...

frozen kernel
#

The reanimation could be a skeever so like

#

YMMV

placid fiber
#

horse riding in skyrim was pretty ass as it was

#

aside from meme jumping up mountains

frozen kernel
#

At least the bigger ones like the storm and ice ones

placid fiber
frozen kernel
#

Fair does

#

Conjuration is a skill you have to want to use

#

Otherwise it's like alteration, it's just there

buoyant pecan
frozen kernel
#

Ironically my VR runs are full mage so I actually use almost every spell school

placid fiber
#

I never played vr skyrim

buoyant pecan
#

so you could actually ride on horseback, not manuever your horse like a drunk with inverted controls irl, and have fighting which ima be real. the combat side was gonna be whack. its bethesda

frozen kernel
#

The only boon is that because it's VR, I can instantly cast a lot of the buffs with a single gesture of my hands

placid fiber
#

most I ever did was 1st person more realistic camera in skyrim

frozen kernel
#

In regular Skyrim you have to wait for the animation

#

And by then you'd already pissed away like 10s of buff

placid fiber
#

Yep lol

frozen kernel
#

Being able to just dab and cast dragonskin + muffle is huge

sand flame
#

I made up a name for a wuuthrad for killing nords

sand flame
#

Mafre Nagaia which translates to frost death in ayleidoon

#

which is the Spanish to English of Falmer Language

frozen kernel
#

Actually my gesture for each summon

#

Left/Right hand touchpad + Up

#

Left hand was usually a ranged summon like an atronach and righty was like a dremora lord

#

Since you don't get a lot of choices it's just fun to change it around depending where you are. Like I used the bonemen when playing through Dawnguard and the weird floating dudes in Dragonborn

placid fiber
#

the saddest thing about modded skyrim was... like half of the mods were horny gamer mods...

frozen kernel

I hate the nexus for that

full disclosure I seem to have much much better luck than I hear in this channel about pug squaddies

frozen kernel
#

I didn't realize

#

That a substantial amount of the playerbase plays malice

Nothing like staring down 50 maulers and hearing a trapper in the distance to get you into shape

zinc talon
#

I prolly finish 2/3 to 3/4 of the auric maels I start

#

maybe not that high but certainly more thyan half

#

and I've only ever met a single truly toxic player in all my runs

#

he saw a cosmetic on my head and before we were even out of the loading lobby the dude was telling me I'm everything that's wrong with darktide

#

sir my microtransactions are keeping the game alive for you to play

vague depot
#

What’s wrong with cosmetics

frozen kernel
#

Auric maels either end instantly because the team is clearly not ready, or it's a fairly clean sweep

There's little in between

I dunno I never heard the why of it

then the RPing ogryn making everything alright

zinc talon
#

the guy read the room pretty quickly after his lil tirade

#

and lol literally said in comms all his friends were waiting on him to start another mission, and left

frozen kernel
#

When I ventured into lower diff to bang out the event challenge (didnt realize I could just play havoc) I ran into the shittest zealots with the shittiest attitudes

with that sunshine and rainbows disposition you prolly have to wear arm floaties leaving the house to keep from drowning in friends

The RP zealots are extra fun

frozen kernel
#

RP is almost always allowed in my ears

#

It's someone having raw fun, unabashedly

#

If it's too much I can just mute them lol

#

I put raining on a roleplayer's parade like telling someone their laugh is annoying

#

It's just like, bad karma/mean af

#

I had a dude that would intentionally stand outside of elevators

misty portal
#

I feel like if there's one RPer suddenly the whole mourningstar starts taking part in it

frozen kernel
#

And make us fight like 1-2 more groups of enemies

#

And when I went "bro pls"

#

He went "what are you crying about"

versed mango
#

there are some feral Australians in the OCE server but for every angry chud telling everyone else how much they suck (while they're dead) there's an RPing ogryn that makes everything ok

zealots and ogryns have been my anecdotal favourite players in 100ish hours of playing, have had some real tryhards since xmas

I backseat game all the time

Im better at it though now

zinc talon
frozen kernel

There's a difference between tips and backseat gaming

misty portal
zinc talon

and I'm actually being a pretentious prick

copper hawk
#

I just dont say anythin naow

frozen kernel
#

I know a backseat gamer and he infuriates me when we play Helldivers 2

zinc talon
#

cuz of the track record

copper hawk
#

Most ppl consider consistent tip giving as backseat gaming

#

This mf would be like "I already killed that thing why did you shoot it"

copper hawk
#

Generally, i know ppl over exaggerate how much hate they get in games as a queer person but, i dont talk too much in game

zinc talon
#

I clog comms calling out every lil thing I see thinking it's existentially important they know

frozen kernel
#

Because it's a COOP game and from behind you, it was still charging towards us

#

So I shot the threat

copper hawk
#

Cuz like a little over the third of the time i get like

#

And Helldivers does not make us go through Arma 3 channels to get ammo

Gooner related oooh femboy prompt fr

puppygirl buzzword shit, yeah I bet

#

Or like just hatecrime stuff

#

I prefer the normal anger

#

Lemme find a funny clip cole got

zinc talon
#

yeah I feel it

#

a lot of people have fake anger because they grew up in a time where you could say things to people and not get punched in the face for it

#

getting punched in the face just once even when you're a preteen will change what you say when you're retired

misty portal
#

i also got yelled at by a very zesty psyker KEKW_ogryn they got mad bc I said i was using mods

copper hawk

I don't mind if people are bad in regular damnation, so long as they're at least level 30

sullen forge
frozen kernel

Because it's one thing to ram your head into a wall

#

It's another to ram your head into a wall and then yell at the others why nobody stopped you

zinc talon
frozen kernel
#

That's going into "max diff" for your current tier with shit gear and incomplete character

zinc talon
#

should be a little faster but no promises

zinc talon
misty portal
#

a little faster than 13 years

frozen kernel
#

Like personally I think moving from damnation to aurics means you should get your gear sorted next, since you can only do aurics at 30 anyway

zinc talon
#

cuz I enjoy babysitting personally, sitting back on an 'easy' (for me) mission and only stepping in when you see them about to get in over their head

#

and tailoring the mission difficulty to what they're capable of

#

but idiots by themselves in an auric mael at 28 or something?

misty portal

By Havoc you should have a functional build, gear that is at least built for a purpose, and enough gamesense to handle pressure

honestly it's a form of narcissism

Havoc: Please just know how to play the game by this point

lmfao

I truly enjoyed the horde mission type in mordhau

#

actual matches or duel only servers where it's just rage, sweat, tears, and slurs?

misty portal
frozen kernel
#

Oh the horde mode was sick

misty portal
#

or going into dueling servers to 1v1 a friend and getting ganked

frozen kernel
#

I never touched duel servers because chivalry/mordhau dueling is cancer but

#

Horde/Frontline was sick

#

My pp isn't small enough to sit there learning how to cancel my animation cancel into a canceled animation that looks like I'm tying my shoes, just to hit the enemy behind the anus with a stab

I much prefer Chiv 2 over mord

It is however small enough to derive joy from running at 5 men with a halberd and hearing 5 watermelons pop

I learned the reverse overhead and that was it

I used it for one match and saw how much destruction I left in my wake

would people unironically practice and use spinning your character in a circle while swinging to get some sort of advantage

were they truly spinning in circles as they swung

I mean I say that while playing Darktide and I know what my footage looks like

But you get what I mean lol

I joined one of those no-objective 24/7 duelling servers where you can run around basically doing anything

and the couple of matches I saw people set up against each other was like

yeah, I'm done with this game

frozen kernel
#

The thing that I hate in some older games like mordhau

zinc talon
#

horde mode still cool as hell

#

and now there's the actual demons from hell mode too

frozen kernel
#

Is that like half the server will just decide "we dont wanna play the game"

#

"this is an online chat room now"

#

TF2 has the same problem

#

Everyone just gets upset because "GRRR IM FRIENDLY"

#

bro it's upward

zinc talon
#

yeah in horde matches people would just like, clock out of work mid match

frozen kernel
#

Push the fucking cart I dont care lol

zinc talon
#

and sit up on the one place you could get poop not thrown at you just memeing and slurring the day away

frozen kernel
#

TF2 the only people I dont shoot at are friendly hoovies because it's probably the purest kind of friendly player, and soldiers that demonstrated that they could've just market garden'd the fuck out of me and just got screwed by map geometry

I guess those were the lifers the way I am in hilldiers and dorktard

got everything, done everything, just logged in cuz that's what you doooo

and you're putting a defensive wall spike up your ass every wave

do you enjoy spectating?

frozen kernel
#

To the day I die I won't understand people who join games just to throw

Like if shit goes sideways and you give up, that's a bad attitude but that's okay

I'm still totally flabbergasted that's like, completely and entirely stopped happening in helldivers

But joining for the sole purpose of "I am going to lose this match for my team"

When your Steam account is old enough to drink

#

Older than most people you probably wind up playing against/with

I get whiplash whenever someone in a match says they're under the age of 25

I don't think I ever had another account but it is kinda hard to think oh I just didn't use steam until my friend had been using it for four fuckin years already

things are fine we're just trying to convince ourselves we're worse off

rockstar fiiiiiiinally fucking allows you to do everything in a closed lobby so you can just play with your frenemies

before that, I had a hotkey setup to halt the entire process of the executible in the task manager for 10 or 15 seconds

you'd stay connected but the game would think you'd dropped
