I never got as into ER pvp and build making like I did with the Souls games

[solar gorge]

does this shock mine penance ever end

[ivory marlin]

I think if i changed my gloves i would be on light roll

[solar gorge]

AAAAAAAAAAAA

[hexed igloo]

I finished the game with about 25vig

[ornate bone]

bro does not like pocket smite

[south prism]

i wish yanderedev a very merry explosion in his face

[solar gorge]

no

[sterile stone]

See you can tell bro isn't right

[ivory marlin]

Its like 28 atm?

[frosty herald]

Replace your chest with the seluvis robes

[solar gorge]

I DONT

[sterile stone]

[hexed igloo]

Unfortunate

[frozen kernel]

Bold of you to think I’d wear gauntlets that don’t show my fingers

[frosty herald]

Jelly is using a scarseal

[sterile stone]

We have a place for them

[frozen kernel]

Free weightage right there

[tranquil bone]

But you'll definitely want more the closer you are to endgame

[south prism]

i should play drg again

[frozen kernel]

More weight for a drippy chest piece that might be heavier than expected

[ivory marlin]

Yeah im using the one talisman that adds +5 to everything

[hexed igloo]

I wear oathseeker greaves and helm, sanguine noble robe, ansbach gloves

[frozen kernel]

I also tend to wear the hoods and such more than helmets or masks

[frosty herald]

Ehem

[ivory marlin]

So technically my vigor in that image was 25

[frozen kernel]

So I save weight on head/hands for chest/legs

[frosty herald]

Only vigor endurance strength and dexterity i believe

[ivory marlin]

Oh idk

[tranquil bone]

Aren't there multiple with different spreads?

[hexed igloo]

You take more damage so in terms of vigor it's more like +2

[heady rapids]

theres 4

2 soreseals and 2 scarseals

[ivory marlin]

Oh true

The photo is a tad old tho

[frozen kernel]

Scarseal used to be a noob trap idk if they changed it

[ivory marlin]

Ill hop on in a sec and show real stats

[frosty herald]

The seals are kind of a trap

[hexed igloo]

My setup is uhhh mixed fth/arc/int and dex

[frozen kernel]

The damage you took was pretty significant

[frosty herald]

Once you get better at the game the tradeoff isnt that worth it

Cause its a 10% damage negation debuff for everything

[frozen kernel]

Some people like being 3 shot by trash mobs idk

Free invasion rewards ig

[ivory marlin]

Ok so heres my thought process

Just don’t get hit

So far

[frozen kernel]

Im really good at parries

[frozen kernel]

Honestly something I really appreciated LotF for was the lack of shitty boss runs

[hexed igloo]

Have you got the bloody helice it'll be baller for you since you're running up arcane

[frosty herald]

I wanna see you try nioh 2

Since mid stance has parries

[frozen kernel]

If you think the run sucks, there’s almost always a place for you to PUT DOWN a bonfire like right outside

If it’s literally an 8 second walk you can just walk

[frosty herald]

Bloody helice is 100% the best weapon for jelly now

[hexed igloo]

It's so peak

[ivory marlin]

No im running the crit weapon with bleed ash

[tranquil bone]

Dex/arc with that much end would also love the flamberge

[frozen kernel]

Nioh 2 asking me to engage with melee combat when I have Onryo magic

[ivory marlin]

Thats why i got arc

[hexed igloo]

Go here grab the wine corkscrew

[frozen kernel]

I’m gonna spam my switchglaive transform attacks and the enemies are going to contract every DoT in the game

I loved Nioh 2

[hexed igloo]

As you are it'll outperform that misericorde in every way

[ivory marlin]

Also im pretty blind so try to keep things spoiler free

[hexed igloo]

And it's peak drip

[ivory marlin]

Im right before flame giant

[hexed igloo]

Ah mb boss

[ivory marlin]

Its chill

[frosty herald]

Ok get bloody helice

The miscorde only weighs like 1.5

[hexed igloo]

You've been thru Altus plateau so it's a backtrack more than anything else

You can still parry and hotswap to the misericorde to riposte

It's what most parry gamers do since raw dagger damage fucking sucks

Been starting to very consistently get weakspot hits with the relic blade uppercut

Feels very good lol

Lets me one or 2 tap enemies it’s great

[carmine lance]

What is the context to this lol

[misty nova]

Still think they should make sprint stab chain into uppercut

[carmine lance]

That would go very hard

[ornate bone]

Lmao getting this in one colour costs 3200

The monkey paw has curled

We got more armours per rotation, guys

[vagrant spruce]

is there anything that can actually deal with rotten armor

[misty nova]

Dots

[carmine lance]

Yes but rotten armor sucks in general

[vagrant spruce]

im so sick of the modifier

[carmine lance]

Im not playing havoc because of it

I want to hit 40 too…

[vagrant spruce]

same, im climbing but cannot get passed rotten armor

and it seems like every other assignment has it

[carmine lance]

I can’t wait for it to get rotated out

[misty nova]

It's just 75% melee and ranged damage reduction and 500 enemies having it

Surely it doesn't get tiring

[vagrant spruce]

is there a cycle or schedule for the modifier rotations? Or is it just up to the will of the emperor?

[misty nova]

Every 3 months is a safe bet

[vagrant spruce]

thanks!

[misty nova]

Although some stuff got stealthily rotated out/in recently

So uh

[vagrant spruce]

so we dont know

[heady rapids]

they did say how they're gonna rotate stuff in one of the devblogs

[plush scroll]

Is there a really good zealot melee weapon for Havoc assignments?

[plush estuary]

most weapons are good

depends on what you are looking for

tactical axe, relic blade, knife, dueling sword, heavy sword

there are a ton of options

Thunder hammer

[wheat matrix]

ainz is about 2 seconds from recommending dclaw

[plush scroll]

I do really like the knife and relic blade, I just knew my hammer was under preforming, so I was curious for some recommendations. Thank you so much

[wheat matrix]

hammer shouldnt be underperforming

[plush scroll]

I feel very slow with crowds though

[plush estuary]

yes

thats its downside

its mixed horde clear

its very slow

[plush scroll]

bosses are instanly destoyed

[plush estuary]

yup

[wheat matrix]

yeah that's how it works

[frozen kernel]

Any Post-Nerf Radahn first iteration Havoc players, please have a seat and enjoy your complimentary Blight Spreads + Tox Gas

[plush scroll]

I'm also new to Havoc which is like a whole different game from casual

[wheat matrix]

if you want strong single target with better horde clear I'd go relic blade

[plush estuary]

indeed

[plush scroll]

I'm gonna master my knife for perks real quick then I'll keep an eye out for mobility dumped relic blade, Thanks a bunch as well

[sterile stone]

@median steeple can u hurry up and drop chapter 5

My newbie friends are well acquainted with ASS players

So much so I saw one of them brief another in one game we were in

“Oh this guy is an Auric Storm Survivor. Watch he’s going to run ahead and die by himself”

I’m just suppressing giggles from my mic

I do have to play on EU survers with them which is like a mini game in and of itself

You fire your rounds and they hit like 0.3s later

Cyber Falcon is good too

I think I still just use ministorium lackey

I use auric storm survivor but I think I am ok to use it because im not usually dog

[frozen kernel]

I’m getting close to Poxbreaker

I just also finally started playing Shadow of War and killing orcs is very distracting

You just think, “Ah fuck it, I’ll just stealth kill this trash mob for fun” but then you trigger an alarm, a captain shows up, you start scheming…then 8 hours have gone by and the entire enemy army is secretly owned by you

I’m facing random captain spawns and my cloak has 26% ranged resist

I’m still playing Darktide

get bonked

reminds me of something

[sterile stone]

Something that never made sense to me right

If kriegsmen were so suicidal

And they saw a space marine

[violet hornet]

4 hive scum 3veg mission, the desperado scum kills half the team and ends the run by shooting a burster while another pushes it

surprise surprise

[sterile stone]

Why not just get a melta bomb rigged vest and go hug one

[jolly sandal]

Melta bombs are valuable

They'd soon throw themselves to save artillery shells

[sterile stone]

The single man killing an entire battalion isn't worth 1 suicide bomber

Wild work

Like if yah sent 10 of em charging at bro

One of them will get him

[jolly sandal]

yeah its kinda their whole niche

they see themselves more disposable than anything else

[sterile stone]

And suddenly you don't have an entire murder tank killing your army

[sterile stone]

Damn

What a way to go out then

Than killing a space marine

[jolly sandal]

well, they can always make more

[sterile stone]

Yeah yeah

Clone vat soldiers

Or something

[frozen kernel]

Oh fuck I forgot to mention

New Arizona dropped at the corner store near my work

[sterile stone]

Matter of fact

Didn't one of the imperium soldiers do this during a training exercise

[sterile stone]

Brother man corraled 5 space marines together and c4'd himself and them in a mock scenario

[sterile stone]

That can goes hard

What it taste like

[jolly sandal]

Think it was a Catachan

Knew there aint no way he winning against sponk marines

so he set himself up as bait

[frozen kernel]

Pretty sure there’s a 40k instance where some chaos marine wasn’t wearing a helmet and when a human pulled the pin on their krak it was basically gg

[jolly sandal]

1 guard for the price of 3 (i think) marines he said

[sterile stone]

That's actually kinda funny

But yeah this aswell right

Aren't kraks stanard issue for guardsmen

You telling me 5 soldiers can't throw magnet grenades at a chaos sm and down his ass

Even if you didnt' throw it

[jolly sandal]

i mean it can happen

[sterile stone]

Get as close as you can

And just slap the bitch on his armor

[jolly sandal]

I think theres some lore in DT even, I just found it recently as well

A bunch of guard regiments in atoma banded together to annihilate a traitor chapter

the uhh

Black Reavers I think

[sterile stone]

Yeah see

The more you think about it

The more you notice

Space marines

Ain't

Shit

[jolly sandal]

Yeah, theyre just mostly seen as nay impossible to kill in most medias

or portrayed as such anyway

[frozen kernel]

Smells organic af and tastes like the dragonfruit mixed with maybe apple/pear juice?

The mango is doing heavy logistics support in the rear line. I don’t have a refined palate but I can tell there’s some food science going down here

Oh yeah can says “dragonfruit puree, pear juice concentrate, fruit and vegetable juice (for color)”

“For color”

[frozen kernel]

Morrow’s recon squad actually smokes a Khorn berserker with just overwhelming lasgun volleys in one of the Mortis logs

I blame 40k space marines simultaneously being unkillable juggernauts and “dudes in armor” with the scaling being so cooked

I mean, my headcanon is just they can be killed, just incredibly difficult

The same cat statue, but three of them

except 1 fight

well maybe 2

[ivory marlin]

The boss sucked cuz he had 2 bleed dogs

[heady rapids]

skipepd or didnt find

if there was a weapon id just look up where to go

[hexed igloo]

I went into several and went "hmm actually no" and left without finishing because they're ass

[ivory marlin]

I really like exploring

[heady rapids]

its cool that they added so many dungeons so you have stuff to do and test weps and stuff

[ivory marlin]

Its fun

[frozen kernel]

Me, a chalice dungeon enjoyer, ignoring the signs and smacking every wall until the boss

[hexed igloo]

Yknow smth funny one of the coolest swords in the game is locked right at the end of one of the worst fucking dungeons in the snowfield with a 1% drop

like

i skipped a bunch

[frozen kernel]

FromSoft consistently making the coolest looking regular swords abysmal dogshit with no durability and D/D scaling

[deft badge]

I used to think they were boring and samey but they're not, they get more complex and interesting as you go on

[deft badge]

Milady best sword in ER I'm ngl

[frozen kernel]

At least they had the sense to make that one cool

[heady rapids]

well i mean duh

all the dlc weapon classes are cool

I remember the Loyce Greatsword from Dks2 was also sick af

[ivory marlin]

The crystal dagger looks cool but ive heard its Lowkenuinely ass

[deft badge]

I love my lightsaber greatsword

[frozen kernel]

Ivory King greatsword that you held in low guard like a straight sword and had parts of the straight sword moveset

[deft badge]

You're just using like, the best crit dagger in the entire game tbf

[hexed igloo]

Yeah

[ivory marlin]

True

Its also +21

[boreal jasper]

Hey on PC with a controller, anyway to rebind the knife to something else?

[heady rapids]

whats 9 + 10

[hexed igloo]

What?

[ivory marlin]

So it kinda does a bit more than a regular dagger

[frozen kernel]

It’s rebinding your Grenade key, so whatever you bind it to will be that

[ivory marlin]

19

[hexed igloo]

Oh do you mean throwing knife

[deft badge]

Never used a controller, sorry

[hexed igloo]

Idk if you can change controller bindings

[boreal jasper]

Yeah I can't seem to find options to rebind controller bindings

[hexed igloo]

Yeah it's not common in games to be able to do that

[frozen kernel]

Oh shit steam doesn’t offer community layouts?

Daaaaamn

[hexed igloo]

Maybe thru steam?

[frozen kernel]

I’m Deckpilled, anytime a game has shit controller bindings I change them like that yeah

[boreal jasper]

Oh maybe, let me see

Having the throwing knife on dpad down is absolutely unusable

[frozen kernel]

I also include the back paddles for dodge in DT

[heady rapids]

u have to claw grip

[frozen kernel]

Because fuck hitting X

[hexed igloo]

I just rebind everything on kb to the degree I have no idea what the normal binds are

[boreal jasper]

My brain exploded

[hexed igloo]

If you aren't claw are you even gaming

[frozen kernel]

For anyone that swaps to a grenade rather than instantly throwing, it’s great. But yeah zealot tknife is the only one that requires actual precision

[heady rapids]

or like this

[frozen kernel]

Like I get pissed in HD2 when it drops my strategem input and injects a stim because it’s Dpad Up

[deft badge]

This is incredible I'm ngl

I've seen claw players before but not that

[frozen kernel]

Armored Core grip

yeah thats the ac grip

[frozen kernel]

Look it up Tongs, hot old school internet meme

[deft badge]

I'll be deadass here

I've been playing AC since I was 7 and never thought to hold the controller like that

[frozen kernel]

Very few people actually know anyone that played like that, but I don’t doubt they exist

And people swear up and down that it was a thing

[deft badge]

Apparently it's a meme that spawned out of Japan

[frozen kernel]

I was never big into AC growing up so I’m just ignorant. I started claw gripping in Dks1 to sprint and look around at the same time

[hexed igloo]

Armored core grip is peak I don't understand it at all

[frozen kernel]

Didn’t even realize it was like, a thing

Since you’re just making the 👌

[hexed igloo]

I have the dark souls controller grip sometimes w my index curled to circle

[frozen kernel]

Your first knuckle just holds circle and you operate the stick with your thumb

[deft badge]

I claw grip for dark souls sometimes

Specifically left-hand side normally

[frozen kernel]

Really? I never used that many consumables or spells

But I also rapidly cycle through my items in MH instead of using radial

[heady rapids]

u have to hold down the dpad for it to go back to slot 1

[hexed igloo]

Thumb on stick and index curled way the fuck around to circle to sprint

[heady rapids]

so u claw grip

[deft badge]

The control schemes for old AC games were made for people with 4 thumbs

[heady rapids]

ur a psychopath

[frozen kernel]

Only a thing in the newer games and Dks Remaster

Wasn’t in the OG

[hexed igloo]

Fucking insane

What the hell is wrong with you

[boreal jasper]

No wait but me too

[frozen kernel]

It’s 9 taps to my potions from here, baby

[hexed igloo]

Nah yall wrong as fuck

[boreal jasper]

I can't compute the wheel thing, I just cycle hella fast hahaha

[frozen kernel]

CHKCHKCHKCHKCHKCHK

Monster is actively breathing literal lightning

[hexed igloo]

Set it up yourself it gets easier to comprehend once you do that

[heady rapids]

wheel is 3 inputs

l1 dpad and a stick move

[hexed igloo]

Wheel is 2 inputs**

[heady rapids]

y'all mad as fuck

[frozen kernel]

I use the wheel for sharpening

[hexed igloo]

Just flick the stick

[heady rapids]

like insane people

[frozen kernel]

Wilds also has the “optimal healing” stuff

But uh

I hate it for when it drinks a small potion

[heady rapids]

it's a wheel preset

[hexed igloo]

I have everything on my radial and muscle memoried to get the angle right

[frozen kernel]

Japanese KB+M bowgunners

Rapidly crafting with their Alt keys in the middle of combat

[hexed igloo]

Sharpen, flash, dung, status/healing, both mantles, steak, ancient potions

[frozen kernel]

MH Wilds let’s you do L1+R2 to mantle

[hexed igloo]

Also tranq

[heady rapids]

I have at least 3 wheels set up

[heady rapids]

yeah ghillie

[frozen kernel]

And ghille is on the support item preset on the button

[heady rapids]

wait no

[frozen kernel]

Nah capcom approved purple jacket

[heady rapids]

ghillie is in preset yeah

[frozen kernel]

[ivory marlin]

I got told to try this on er and it felt disgusting i legit couldn’t

[hexed igloo]

I have most of the non-consumables hidden on my item scroller shit the only things there are hot/cool drinks, capture net, stun traps

[plush widget]

Son...

[hexed igloo]

And the grill

[hexed igloo]

How do you sprint

[frozen kernel]

It’s not so bad without the cringe left hand

[ivory marlin]

I use my pinky

[hexed igloo]

Thats weirder tbh

Psycho

[jolly sandal]

[frozen kernel]

What in the fuck

[ivory marlin]

Ballright

[deft badge]

How

[frozen kernel]

Does your pinky curl around like a tentacle

[deft badge]

Like

[frozen kernel]

Nurgling confirmed

[deft badge]

Do you have buttons on the bottom of your controller?

[hexed igloo]

That's actually fucked you have like an 8 inch pinky or some shit

[frozen kernel]

Get em, boys

[heady rapids]

him right there officer

[ivory marlin]

Chat im joking

I use my pointer

Like a regular ass person

[hexed igloo]

Do you have a comically long pinky nail that curls all the way round to press circle

[frozen kernel]

Skinwalkers are among us

[deft badge]

Nah some people have buttons on the bottom of their controller so

[hexed igloo]

If you have paddles on your controller you aren't real

[deft badge]

Do you guys remember the modded controllers fad of like

Blops 2

[heady rapids]

steamdeck

[ivory marlin]

I use this

[hexed igloo]

I use a ps2 dualshock for every game ever I have an adapter for it to play on xbox

[deft badge]

Paddles, inbuilt macros, sgit like that

[hexed igloo]

Based as fuck actually

[ivory marlin]

The right bumper is already broken

But it works

[deft badge]

I have an Xbox controller

[ivory marlin]

Just no click sound

[plush estuary]

omg

[hexed igloo]

I have an Xbox controller

[plush estuary]

I love party finder

[deft badge]

Like just the normal

[plush estuary]

this is so funny

[heady rapids]

ik using a ds4

[deft badge]

Modern day

[ivory marlin]

Or feeling that its being pushed

[heady rapids]

no drift in

[ivory marlin]

But it still works

[heady rapids]

5 years maybe

doing good

[frozen kernel]

It makes me want a ps5 pro controller because fuuuuuuub

Paddles are goated

[hexed igloo]

I actually have an expensive ass custom controller from that one brand I forgot the name of but it was big

[frozen kernel]

And I’m getting old

[snow lantern]

H8 these players

[heady rapids]

paddles are sick as fuck

esp on sd

[frozen kernel]

I’ve also seen the light that is never having stick drift if you don’t use L3+R3

[hexed igloo]

Ion use it tho it has some stick drift

[heady rapids]

cause ur playing pc games

[frozen kernel]

Fuck clicking the stick to sprint

[hexed igloo]

I have a SCUF controller

[frozen kernel]

Rockstar still has us mash X like god intended, I’ll also settle for R1/R2

[hexed igloo]

Stick drift tho so normal xbone for me kek

[sterile stone]

They just hiring anybody around here ain't they

[frozen kernel]

I never had stick drift until the Switch Joycons/Index Knuckles

[hexed igloo]

This is one of the main reasons I can't fucking stand gta

[frozen kernel]

I didn’t mangle my shit as a kid I guess, idk

[hexed igloo]

Aside from it being the epitome of slop

[frozen kernel]

I never experienced stick drift. I thought it only happened if you literally drank soup with your controller and threw it across the room

[heady rapids]

switch joycons are so fucking small

[frozen kernel]

I dropped them fuckers from shelves and they never even cracked

Yeah joycons are dogshit

Flimsy, tiny, cheap

Hilariously I have every PlayStation controller but haven’t bought a console since the PS2

[delicate shadow]

never had issues with my gameboy colour

[frozen kernel]

Yeah wait your right

What are we doing using analogue sticks

So 2000

It’s time for trackpad Thursday

[delicate shadow]

ngl I had no idea what was being talked about

I just rolled a d100 on things to say

[tranquil bone]

Man chose to use the little brother controller of his own will

[frozen kernel]

Ngl the steam deck trackpads are such an improvement over the old steam controller it’s insane

I don’t bully ergo gamers for they’re more enlightened than I

Trackball players will humble you

[hexed igloo]

We should be gaming on theramins

[tranquil bone]

Using a deck has made me really excited for the V2 controller

Only bit of the hardware stuff I'll probably actually go for

[frozen kernel]

I’ve never had negative buyers remorse like with the Deck

[delicate shadow]

ngl I should get pedals and bind them to tag/ping because of how much I bounce my leg absentmindedly

[frozen kernel]

So funny story about pedals

[hexed igloo]

Bouncing on it huh

[delicate shadow]

it's like, an ADHD stimm

[frozen kernel]

I had a buddy with rudder pedals that he used for some games like Arma, for leaning

For YEARS

He couldn’t play some games

[hexed igloo]

I just crack my knuckles every 30 seconds

[frozen kernel]

Controllers just stopped working

Dark Souls 2, Black Flag, etc

Games that had nothing in common

It took like 4 years for someone to ask, “ayo you still got those pedals”

He pauses, goes dead silent

[heady rapids]

yeah that happens

[frozen kernel]

“Yes…”

[heady rapids]

my friend couldn't join risk of rain 2 lobbies cause he had a steering wheel

[frozen kernel]

It was overwriting the controller as a generic USB device or something lmao

Oh that’s mega fucked

Technologia~

[tranquil bone]

Worst I've had is some stuff freaking out when it sees the input from the switch pro gyro

[hexed igloo]

My pc shits itself if I leave it on without doing anything for awhile

[heady rapids]

adhd pc

[hexed igloo]

Entire desktop and taskbar just fucking breaks, it's still usable and is fine but it looks all fucked and doesn't work properly

My desktop icons become gigantic like only 8 of them fit on the screen and the rest disappear

Font on the searchbar changes and the searchbar stops working to begin with

[tranquil bone]

how in the hell did you manage this

[hexed igloo]

This is fixed by

• restarting
• watching YouTube for an hour or so it fixes itself at some point
• opening a game immediately fixes it

[frozen kernel]

I’d be neurotic

[heady rapids]

it's a gpu driver issue

[hexed igloo]

I don't fucking know LMAO and I don't know how to make it not do it

It's been doing this through 4 driver versions bro

[heady rapids]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1112220920929599519/1178399937592049764/ezgif-5-a7c1f8da3c.gif

[tranquil bone]

Driver is what I was wondering with booting a game fixing it

I've had some fucking bizarre behavior with GPU or driver issues

[hexed igloo]

I haven't seen anyone who's had the same experience and it doesn't exist on the internet

And it's persisted through several driver updates

Been doing it for like a year

[spice crystal]

car

i like heavy laz pistol

[sterile stone]

@sullen forge I figured you should be the first to see

[hexed igloo]

apparently a pretty fucking large performance difference

[sullen forge]

Yeah I saw that

LMAO

[long oasis]

bruh

please tell me thats real

[hexed igloo]

Iirc there's a whole set of yt documentaries on it now

It's some shit like a 40% performance increase if you have all the dlcs

[frozen kernel]

Detailed post initially removed from the MH subreddit by mods

[hexed igloo]

Classic

[frozen kernel]

I only saw that later

But yeah it explained it’s upwards of like 22FPS difference

[snow lantern]

I hope the gaming industry collapses

[frozen kernel]

Apparently another title had a similar issue but players found a way to spoof it earlier, I forget which game though

Isn’t all this already on top of Denuvo as well?

Yep lol nice

[hexed igloo]

Denuvo is a non-issue imo it's just antipiracy who cares kernel anticheat is a much more significant thing

And monhun just uh doesn't have anticheat

[hexed igloo]

And also I'm pretty sure there's alr a spoof for wilds

[frozen kernel]

Not sure if you’re aware but Denuvo is literally the original version of the MH situation

It devours resources running constant checks

[hexed igloo]

I'm not listening to you I'm choosing to believe denuvo is a non issue

[frozen kernel]

It’s not just like when people go “waaaah valorant banned me for my keyboard macros kernel bad”

[hexed igloo]

Denuvo is a higher hurdle to get rid of tbh since it's antipiracy ain't no company gonna get rid of it because it's their money they're bleeding out cash for every copy pirated

[frozen kernel]

Folks have done tests for years. IIRC there was a whole controversy with one of the Anno games because it literally made the game unplayable

It’s another symptom of executives being out of touch

[hexed igloo]

Another w for gaben

Our in touch king

[frozen kernel]

Denuvo or any anti-piracy bullshit software effectively is to help them generate sales in the first month

After that it should be removed

Bc why the fuck should your game be running verification checks when your studio has literally closed its doors (extreme example but still)

[hexed igloo]

Yeah slavery should be removed too but hey that's still going on if they can make another cent it's gonna be there

[frozen kernel]

Mhmm

We all like cheap cotton tee shirts

[hexed igloo]

I agree with you it sucks and all but like it's gonna continue until it collapses

And then it'll still continue

[deft badge]

Iirc this is what normally happens

[hexed igloo]

Wilds runs shittily enough to begin with that denuvo doesn't make a difference

[frozen kernel]

“Normally”

[hexed igloo]

But real shit I play wilds on a ryzen 5 3600 and a 5 year old hard drive and I get 50fps like

Sometimes I see polygonal monsters until it catches up but thats funny

[frozen kernel]

It runs shitty because it has two simultaneous systems running constant verifications and eating over 30FPS collectively on an engine being that was made for milking an entire game in a single building being used to render active large maps with dozens of entities

It’s diseased to its core

It’s a really pretty castle, but it’s made of rice paper and someone smeared Vaseline all over the screen lol

[hexed igloo]

It runs better than half the other modern games tbh

[frozen kernel]

Idk about that one chieftain

[hexed igloo]

Looks better and runs better than oblivion remastered but to be fair that's Bethesda things

[frozen kernel]

But I don’t play a lot of like modern modern stuff, usually couple years old

[frozen kernel]

It does NOT run better than Oblivion lmao

[hexed igloo]

It absolutely fucking does lmao I have wilds on high/ultra and oblivion on medium and I have the same frames

Wilds unironically has better load times too

Oblivion also stutters like a motherfucker

[frozen kernel]

I maxed out oblivion and never even flinched as it consistently stayed over 100FPS

I walk into the gathering hub and that shit drops like Skrillex in 2011

I don’t know what you’re smoking but I’d really like a hit

[hexed igloo]

Stone cold sober boss

[frozen kernel]

Mind you, I don’t doubt your system performance

But generally I just can’t fathom other machines running Wilds better than Oblivion

I had a friend that wouldn’t shut the fuck up about how poorly Wilds ran on his 3060

[hexed igloo]

Also oblivion does the same thing as wilds where shit is polygonal for 30 seconds while it catches up on rendering

[frozen kernel]

He had 0 issues mulching through Oblivion, and trust me I would’ve had the misfortune of hearing if he didnt

[hexed igloo]

I have ryzen 5 3600, 24gb ram, and a 6900xt

Wilds runs significantly more stably than oblivion lmao

[frozen kernel]

I don’t remember his specs but I’ve got an Intel i7 14700K, 32GB, and a 4070ti

I don’t really notice wilds performance dipping outside of the hubs though

[hexed igloo]

I have a pretty stable 50-60fps everywhere in Wilds, dips down sometimes when there's a shitton of fx

[frozen kernel]

I’ve never been killed by a monster and gone “fucking frame rate started chugging and it ate my input”

Bless

[hexed igloo]

Wilds just eats inputs to begin with tho so

[frozen kernel]

I see memes about Gog killing PC’s lmao

[hexed igloo]

Was fine for mine kek

[frozen kernel]

Not like actually killing them

[hexed igloo]

My rig ate gog for breakfast

[frozen kernel]

But mid nova their game crashed and threw up like a half dozen error messages

[hexed igloo]

I dip by like 5fps during the nova

[frozen kernel]

Perfect meme if I can find it

[hexed igloo]

The bomb gorilla is worse for my rig than gog lmao

4 trillion individually modeled and rendered sparks

[frozen kernel]

I hate all the ape monsters on principle

[hexed igloo]

I don't mind the fight as a whole just his spark heavy attacks chew up 20fps

[frozen kernel]

Which one was it

AT Nu Udra

Flame octopus

Entire room is now on fire

Literal aura of fire (haha adaptability gem)

I’m not trying to play DOS2 again please let me see the floor

https://tenor.com/view/ididmytime-siriusblack-harrypotter-prionerofazkaban-gif-16755602592735075299

[hexed igloo]

He's fine the fire is less fucked than the sparks

I like nu udra AT went down like nothin

[twin wagon]

Wilds is absolutely not stable

[eager topaz]

Assault chainaxe is so cool, can't believe I ignored it for the longest time

[twin wagon]

Some areas will inconsistently tank performance depending on moon phase

[eager topaz]

Or did they do something about it in the recent updates

[eager topaz]

Wilds infuriates me

Time to pick GU, World and Rise back up.

[hexed igloo]

I can play for 8 hours straight and not have any performance changes or crashes like iunno what im doin different

[twin wagon]

Likely game plays well with your hardware

[hexed igloo]

I have a cpu below the required iirc and I'm running it from a hdd

[twin wagon]

Issue with Wilds is it was tested on a rather limited selection of systems...which doesn't explain how somehow ps has issues

I'm way above recommended

[hexed igloo]

I have the minimum cpu

And a bit above rec for gpu

Consistent 50-60fps everywhere (except around the fucking bomb ape) and very rare crashes

[twin wagon]

Apparently it's dlc related partially

Players with purchased dlc do tank performance

Which explains why it barely changes in online singleplayer or overall solo hunts

lmao

[eager topaz]

LMAO

[twin wagon]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MonsterHunter/comments/1qcy3hn/mh_wilds_bad_performance_mystery_solved/

(It's not only the insane drms checking every few seconds, but it's partially to blame)

[hexed igloo]

Yeah it's funny as hell but also I don't own a single dlc so uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I guess I'm just better

Capcom hand picked me to give all your frames to

[deft badge]

I love Elden Ring invasions

Sometimes it's 2 dudes co oping with clearly dropped endgame items

Sometimes it's a host that somehow only has 500 hp

[twin wagon]

[pastel dune]

Hi, can anyone explain to me the "Just a Flesh Wound" penance and how to achieve it?, I would really appreciate your help!

[deft badge]

Get hurt, finish the mission fast

Rolling steel is good for it

[frozen kernel]

Complete train mission with less than 1 wound

Use barrel or first enemy shotgunner to do it with death cheat

[sonic fractal]

Get a private game together with friends or the LFG chat. Speedrun a mission (Rolling steel ideal) and complete with 75% of the total time being under one wounds worth. On heresy you'll have two by default

[hexed igloo]

One time I got invaded in ds3 literally right outside the first bonfire at the high wall by a guy wearing iron dragonslayer gear with gael crossbow and shit and I very nearly beat his ass with my starter gear he realized he was losing and started throwing lagswitch firebombs

[frozen kernel]

Dks1 was peak because it was pre-SoftBan system

[sonic fractal]

Magistrati Oubliette is also a really short mission if you and your group rush it

[frozen kernel]

So if you ran into a cheater you pulled out the cursed spear that the last cheater gave you and turned him into an egg

Or just made your own because cheat engine is free

Most of the time you could just ledge them because they’re dogshit and gravity is instant kill but sometimes there is no hole

[ashen panther]

is there some kind of build I can make where I can cycle between dashing forward on a melee spree and falling back to my group in such a way where I don't get cooked

cause I love going full gas and murdering things with my sword but I want to be able to get back to me team quick

[sonic fractal]

Thats more of a game sense thing, but stealth would allow you to skedaddle to and fro around

[deft badge]

I invaded a world in limgrave and had a dude spamming vykes before I even got out of the summon animation, and yk what happened?

He died

[hexed igloo]

Many such cases

[deft badge]

Procced madness on himself.

[eager topaz]

It's just DS2 shennanigans all over again.

[deft badge]

It was genuinely impressive

Nah I genuinely love ER invasions, especially sub level 100

[hexed igloo]

I had an invasion in ds3 when I was being guard dog for my low level friend and he just ran around in the forbidden woods for half a fuckin hour shooting at me with a bow, somehow the lowest damage bow I've ever seen because I ate like 30 arrows before needing to heal

[deft badge]

You find people doing all sorts of shit

[hexed igloo]

I finally got him out to duel and I oneshot his bitchass

Fucking vigorchecked with a katana

[eager topaz]

Like some invader in DS2 was hitting me with a weapon that's below their minimum stat reqs for little to no damage

So I figured I'd do the same thing, then he succesfully parries me, drops a stone. And jumps off a cliff.

[hexed igloo]

I think dude was using a +0 shortbow he didn't have the dex or smth for with the basic arrows

I just ate all the arrows let him get me low and then one of my 5 flasks back to max

[twin wagon]

https://tenor.com/view/never-let-them-know-your-gif-2456164990836957389

[hexed igloo]

Like big dog I'm winning this battle of attrition

If I run outta flasks I have another 50 siegbrau

[frozen kernel]

“The new PvP meta is 150 because we NEED to stack vigor”

The humble SL50 community since DeS

[deft badge]

Low level invasions are normally more fun imho

[frozen kernel]

Depends on which game but generally yeah

[deft badge]

I personally enjoy having characters ar all ranges tho

[frozen kernel]

Even the meta of ~100-120 is going to be MUCH more enjoyable than anything higher

[deft badge]

Nah like, I like 150 invasions tbqh

Thats where people actually pvp

[frozen kernel]

I never did much ER pvp because it was kinda butts

[deft badge]

But below that is fun cause you get unprepared people just progging

Above that is also fun cause it's either people really good at the game or like

John Bumblefuck who thinks he has to be level 300 to beat the game

[frozen kernel]

As someone that used fucking Yhorm’s machete I hated what they did to great weapons

[hexed igloo]

In ds3 once you get past lvl 150 you just get cheaters

[frozen kernel]

Literally reduced to crouch pokes and jump spam

[deft badge]

I'm not a colossal weapons guy outside "haha nuts berserk" meme

[frozen kernel]

There used to be mind games with heavy punishes

“Holy fuck is he out of stamina”
“No bitch I have one more swing left in me”

[deft badge]

Tbh I've literally never been a great axe or hammer guy

In any souls game

The movesets always kinda sucked

Yhorme's was neat in 3

But it also had a non standard moveset

[frozen kernel]

IMO ER dropped the ball big time on actual weapon movesets because the focus was clearly on weapon arts

[deft badge]

See i would agree with you except for the fsct that the weapons i like using feel good

Like greatswords have the same moveset as ever

[frozen kernel]

Press L2 to win game. Insert rivers of blood PVE memes because kinda like dork bead most competent players will still shit on you

[deft badge]

Rapiers too

[frozen kernel]

They brought back the Dks2 moveset for like two of them again

I think Mirrah GS is literally in ER isn’t it?

[deft badge]

Most of them remind me of DS1 Claymore which is like

Premier moveset

[frozen kernel]

Or am I going hollow and all the souls games are blending into one

[deft badge]

I do not know tbh

[frozen kernel]

Ds1 claymore mmmmmmm

Play more with the claymore

[hexed igloo]

My pvp build in ds3 is a dex/fth set that looks pure dex, I use the twin katanas with enough stamina to do that jump art 7 times in a row and it catches every single person offguard

[frozen kernel]

Whenever a game lets me do that one handed stab with a GS, my brain instantly goes “oh it’s the claymore”

[hexed igloo]

But that's bait it's all a cover up for my sacred flame that'll oneshot unless you're in havels

[deft badge]

Every single run eventually becomes a light greatswords run for me too tbqh

Which feel amazing

[frozen kernel]

Yhorm’s machete is kinda like Darktide crusher gameplay

You overhead

And then you overhead

[hexed igloo]

Heavy thrusting swords bro queeligns greatsword or bloody helice

[frozen kernel]

Sometimes people fight back

But you’ll overhead them and win the trade

The two handed charged R2 when you used the roar would genuinely catch so many people who’d never fought the weapon

[hexed igloo]

I play like a dexboy and then the moment they roll behind me they roll straight into the sacred flame grab

[deft badge]

Milady is genuinely the single best weapon in ER cause of how good it feels to use

[frozen kernel]

I’d like to use Milady but like

It requires me to play Shadow of the Erdtree

[deft badge]

The moveset is peak

Idk how to tell you this but all of the most fun weapons in ER are in SoTE

[frozen kernel]

Funny that innit?

[deft badge]

They even brought back martial arts like ds2 bone fists

[hexed igloo]

I deeply enjoy the heavy rapiers dynasts finesse is so fucking peak and they have such good damage and range

[frozen kernel]

Mhmmm

[deft badge]

Idk, ER overall has weapons i enjoy a lot

[deft badge]

Ig, it wasnt like I wasn't gonna buy the dlc anyway

[frozen kernel]

I enjoyed my time with ER but pretty much only for one playthrough

[hexed igloo]

Footwork > normal dryleaf

[frosty socket]

Hit a weird bug last night. Was playing Marty eviscerator, and I was not replenishing toughness as much. Was very weird. I even went down to damnation to trouble shoot. 2 trash mobs would wipe my whole bar. Very, very frustrating. The more I play the more weird bugs happen

[deft badge]

I simply enjoy souls games, I play all of them multiple times.

[frozen kernel]

Poor initial reception and then literally having to drastically change the Skibidi tree blessings was certainly some shit

I was waiting and it turned me off

[deft badge]

Idk if you don't like it you don't like it but personally?

I do not care lmfao

I like the dlc

[frozen kernel]

I say this as someone that will gush to you about Iron King so like take it with a grain of salt

[deft badge]

Yeah go fuck yourself

[frozen kernel]

:))

Fume Filter Knight best boss

[hexed igloo]

Overall the dlc is good, I have my complaints but it's generally pretty solid

[deft badge]

Nah this i agree with

[frozen kernel]

Recycled dorito balrog was goofy af

[deft badge]

I thought you literally meant hole in the floor the bossfight

[frozen kernel]

Cool ranch smelter demon

So I own the DLC

Because I was playing consistent coop with some friends

[deft badge]

No Hitting Alonne>

[frozen kernel]

The host teleported to DLC

[hexed igloo]

As if ulcerated tree spirit doesn't exist

[frozen kernel]

It bricked my save

So I bought it

[hexed igloo]

Yeah it does that

[frozen kernel]

We never continued playing

MEANWHILE

Phantom Liberty actually deserves that money

[frosty socket]

Where do I report bugs

[deft badge]

Raime has a 3 percent clear rate or some shit for his first week

[deft badge]

Forums iirc

[hexed igloo]

Who's raime

[deft badge]

One of DS2s best bosses

[frozen kernel]

He’s so cool

I used the little sword for a hot minute

[hexed igloo]

Ds2 sucks ass bro I'd rather be waterboarded with eggnog

[frozen kernel]

It had a THRUST

[frosty socket]

Sorry what forum?

[hexed igloo]

Minecraft forum

[frozen kernel]

Hollow detected, opinion disregarded

[hexed igloo]

I haven't played ds2

I tried to play ds1 but it's so jank and dogshit clunky I can't do it

[deft badge]

Dark souls 2 good idk

I like genuinely like every single souls game including demons to this day

I replay ds1 basically yearly

[plush estuary]

assassinated

[frozen kernel]

I find that people who started on Ds3 have a hard time going back to Dks2

They can somewhat tolerate 1 but 2 is a no go

[deft badge]

3 is genuinely my least favorite tbqh

I still like it more than most games tho

[frozen kernel]

Jfc I thought this was Blade and Sorcery for a second

[frosty socket]

Thank you

[hexed igloo]

I started with 3, and I have some heavy nostalgia glasses but I still love it

[deft badge]

No problem

[frozen kernel]

Dks3 was good, I had fun with it. I did a lot of PvP

It’s still my least favorite souls title across the entire franchise

It wanted to be Bloodborne but without any of the Bloodborne and it shows

[hexed igloo]

I've played all of the darkbornekiroring except ds1 and 2

[deft badge]

3 has amazing combat for the mainline series but imo no boss in the main game is super memorable and like, the worst map to traverse.

The urge to complete my shroudfield penance is so strong but my need for sleep is stronger
Im a weak man

[frozen kernel]

Fatmangus, kindred

It’s how I did it

[hexed igloo]

I don't rly have any issues with the map tbh it's fine

[frozen kernel]

I’ve played since before stealth even existed and I still didn’t have it done

[twin wagon]

What do you mean poopenfarten tree is legendary

[deft badge]

Lmfao the stupid tree

[twin wagon]

🌳

[deft badge]

You walk straight basically the entire game

[frozen kernel]

I will say Gael is the best final boss

[deft badge]

It bores me

[twin wagon]

Gael and Storm King

[deft badge]

Gael is literally the best boss in the souls series

[frozen kernel]

I know you said main game

But fuck man I gotta mention Gael

[deft badge]

The dlc is the redeeming factor of DS3 for me

The dlc? Goated

3 base game? Good, but not great.

[frozen kernel]

I’ll not forget what Ds2 initially did to faith builds

[hexed igloo]

Yeah I guess it's alright tho

[frozen kernel]

But I also remember that Nashandra’s bow with lightning arrows could literally hit a player mid roll for like 600-700 damage

So in the end all was well

Dks2 rolls were awesome because it wasn’t a get out of jail free card to just mindlessly mash

Was adaptability kinda dumb? Yeah, but literally level it to 12 and forget about it for the rest of the game

Backstepping was actually a part of PvP

No ravioli tech like Dks1

[deft badge]

Ds2 had interesting but strange and poorly explained(even for a souls game) mechanics

[frozen kernel]

Well it was there but like, there was more to the back step than just tech

Actually could be used for its intended purpose instead of just back stepping into people and hitting them with a 180 running attack

[hexed igloo]

Bloodborne still my favorite fromsoft title

[frozen kernel]

I briefly played it on PS Now before it got like, fully cracked on PC

[deft badge]

Bloodborne has a great map and weapon design but tbh I'm not into gun parrying

[frozen kernel]

I understood immediately

[hexed igloo]

I like havin that thing on me

[frozen kernel]

Blunderbuss parry made me feel like a GOD

[hexed igloo]

A mf roll up I switch him down

[frozen kernel]

KER-CHOW

[hexed igloo]

I'm an evelynn enjoyer

Evelynn + church pick

[frozen kernel]

That was the really high dmg pistol right?

[slow galleon]

Surely Bloodborne will get a pc patch and remake

[hexed igloo]

Uh it's got the best bloodtinge scaling but

[frozen kernel]

Yeah

It’s not bone ash cannon but

[hexed igloo]

If you want straight damage repeater is better

[sullen eagle]

do modifiers have any effect on Auric unlock progress

[frozen kernel]

IIRC Nah just matches won

[sullen eagle]

so wait

just spam fast missions right

[slow galleon]

Pretty much

[deft badge]

Im glad fromsoft makes games tbh

[sullen eagle]

neato!

[hexed igloo]

Fist of gratia is peak too

[deft badge]

I genuinely can't put into words how much I've been enjoying slow playing ER again

[hexed igloo]

You lose the parry but instead just fucking slug them in the gut

[slow galleon]

If only you could dual wield them

[deft badge]

Tbh

[hexed igloo]

Fist of gratia and stake driver to funny

[deft badge]

I wish bloodborne was a little less focused on Gun+Melee

The spells were cool but weird and underutilized

[slow galleon]

Who needs melee range

[hexed igloo]

Wym you can comfortably do it gunless and meleeless

[slow galleon]

Heretic

[hexed igloo]

Spells are kinda useless tho lmao

[deft badge]

Thats what i mean tbf

[hexed igloo]

Tiny tonitrus all you need

[deft badge]

I wish they had a little more service for the magic in it
