Oh I used to have that keyboard

[zinc phoenix]

Genuine freedom unit confirmed 👍

[stuck sinew]

It has survived at least two instances of my cat spilling tea on it

[nocturne dust]

we're saying it's probably not a great position to have your hand in

if you're a normal person

with normal hands

[wispy bay]

Are us cavemen normal people?

[vernal temple]

I can hit Left Ctrl with my thumb

fear me

[stuck sinew]

[hearty wolf]

What the fuck did I just read

There are so much easier ways to do that

[vernal temple]

this is my way and I like it that way

[zinc phoenix]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yZNRXPV_ABk this must be your theme song

[hearty wolf]

Your left pinky can bit shift and control

What

What is this

[wispy bay]

I use ESDF.

[hearty wolf]

Where is dodge blinded for you

[wispy bay]

The ability button is A.

[nocturne dust]

It turns out opinions can be wrong

[wispy bay]

G is for weapon special and H for blitz.

[hearty wolf]

This made me laugh xd

[vernal temple]

There is that guy who beats DarkSoul with banana. Beating darktide with piano is totally possible.

Honorable mention

🗣️

[wispy bay]

It is ok to play with jump and dodge in the same button.

[vernal temple]

Yep

https://tenor.com/view/brovius-gif-18504442

the hell is this gif

[nocturne dust]

It is also ok to rebind every button to the same key

that way you only have to press one button to win

[vernal temple]

sounds like something an ork player would do

press any key to win

[deft stump]

I mean, if you believe in it, it will be so. (if orkz.)

[wispy bay]

It is the secret Exterminatus setting.

[zinc phoenix]

I want an ork game where the orks iz da gud guyz

[wispy bay]

There is that football game, I think.

[deft stump]

Must be winnable with 1 button (optional setting).

Just do what Bayonetta does but even more simplified, lul.

[hearty wolf]

Damn

I had to unbind dodge from space bar for my sanity

[vernal temple]

basically

[zinc phoenix]

Extremely detailed ork boob physics

[hearty wolf]

Can't queue inputs if the game makes you do something else

[hearty wolf]

gets overheaded

Wait no it's genius

If you use devils claw

[vernal temple]

never happened

[hearty wolf]

One of those buttons will parry

[deft stump]

Naw, I mean the easiest setting for the game. Even a game reviewer can win with it.

[vernal temple]

I literally never use DC

[jovial juniper]

Blood Bowl? Or something

[wispy bay]

Don't like, don't know.

[vernal temple]

nope. default weapon special is Mouse 3

[hearty wolf]

You can bind that to one button

Everything

All of it

Behold the muscle wizard https://darktide.gameslantern.com/build-editor?id=9de9772e-9f37-421d-ba2a-43733640998f

The goal is to run into hordes, press F and then left click spam and special attack until they’re all gone. As long as the horde is still there SG can be maintained at zero peril. For bosses and big carapace packs you can use the laspistol with SG and headshots to sustain it for a while and burn them up. For gunner mobs assail do the trick.

Stam + stam regen is to improve survivability when you run out of horde and are at max peril without an easy way to clear

Otherwise you’ve got psyker tier stam and no KD in potentially dangerous situations and that is no bueno

[deft stump]

Needs fist weapon first. I cast fist to your face is a must.

[zinc phoenix]

Warp rider is skipped because most of the time when doing damage you’re at zero peril anyway

[zinc phoenix]

IKR?

Fist weapon with a muscle wizard build would be hilarious

This build is fun because in aurics so long as you’re hitting things with the sword you literally cannot run out of toughness and you’re constantly critting so guns stay missin

[deft stump]

Just punch things. Pogryn? Punch. Spawn? Punch. BoN? Punch mouth if 'manly'.

[zinc phoenix]

Ok guys KCD2 and Civ7 are coming out within two days of one another

This is comically unfair to me

[deft stump]

Wait a sec. Knoife build but you can only special.

HRM.

[zinc phoenix]

That’d work about as well as a baked potato with no oven

[deft stump]

Not even on low diffs?

[jovial juniper]

At least is not standard shovel punch only

Also pretty sure shovel and cleaver punches aren't considered heavies

So no stacking HH

Applying bleed

The good news is that

Tenderiser and Suckerpunch are a thing

[wooden sand]

Ork fight heretics and didn't expect to help the Imperium

[jovial juniper]

Hmmmm

[silver mantle]

You can do well with a laspistol shlve on uprising

[jovial juniper]

I wonder if Suckerpunch and Perfect Strike have some synergy

[deft stump]

Wait, why shovel? Isn't that Vet only?

[marble crater]

February 4 is too soon, my backlog of games is too big

[marble crater]

Ogryn have big shovel

[deft stump]

Yes, but weren't we talking about muscle wizard stuff?

[marble crater]

He was talking about ogryn stuff

[deft stump]

I am waiting for tonight to check Humble Choice for Jan.

[strange igloo]

is blaze away really worth it on purge staff?

[marble crater]

Yes

Next question

[deft stump]

Ah. Guess just confused.

[strange igloo]

I've been using warp flurry and nexus

[jovial juniper]

Because wizard isn't the only punching around

[deft stump]

Is BiS.

[jovial juniper]

You could probably get Smackdown Flesh Tearer on a combat knife though

[marble crater]

Flurry doesn't really do much for purge staff, imo

[deft stump]

But Barbarian punching is boring. Funni tiny wizard doing it though.

[jovial juniper]

And break noses resulting in major bleed

[upper galleon]

Get blaze away

[strange igloo]

I've just been treating it like cast speed in other games and it just being QoL, but I've seen other people use blaze away and it had me second guessing

[upper galleon]

It charges fairly fast

[silver mantle]

Laspistol push

[upper galleon]

And strength increases the damage of your burn

[silver mantle]

Just get away from me

Push em off a cliff

[marble crater]

Blaze away gives more damage, better than the little cast speed increase you don't really need on that staff

[deft stump]

Blaze away is on every m1 and ticks fast on charge rmb. Is free constant damage up.

[strange igloo]

I guess that just shows how good the staff is though because I've done a 39 with most damage in the game and didn't even use its BiS perk lol

[marble crater]

Yeah it scales really well into higher density of enemies

[deft stump]

You can argue between rending and crits for the other but still.

[strange igloo]

I also should take off unyielding and switch to crit chance

especially since dueling sword exists lol

[upper galleon]

Nah, only on blazing voidblast

[marble crater]

Why should? Both are good

[strange igloo]

well I can use dueling for boss dps

[marble crater]

Unyielding is nice for Bulwarks and reapers

[upper galleon]

Crit chance perk is alright but 25% burn damage to an important armor type is huge

[strange igloo]

crit chance gives me dodge with empathic evasion

[marble crater]

And you can burn for 15 stacks and then switch to melee for bosses

[upper galleon]

It already self sustains itself with nexus if you have that

[strange igloo]

yea I use nexus

[upper galleon]

No need for 5% perk just too little to be good

Sure an extra stack on crit is nice, but it doesn’t beat doing more damage at max stacks imo

[deft stump]

Honestly, that's only for Vet recon memes.

[upper galleon]

Not even recon

I think the only viable option for 5% crit chance is blazing voidblast

Since it needs to crit to function

[strange igloo]

well I should still change unyielding to like carapace or something instead? I would think. Especially since my main priority is mobbing and getting cdr on elite kills

[deft stump]

To m1 everywhere.

[upper galleon]

flak is always solid

[strange igloo]

yea I use flak

[marble crater]

Burn doesn't deal any real damage to carapace

[strange igloo]

thats my goto

[strange igloo]

yea I rend with dueling though

[upper galleon]

I have cara elites but that’s cause i’m a nerdy savant running rending flames

[upper galleon]

Damage perks are decided by what weapon you are holding

[deft stump]

Just poke things with uncanny in hed when they burning.

[marble crater]

Just keep unyielding on the staff, imo. It's what I use with flak

[upper galleon]

So your burn damage will dynamically change if you have staff, melee, blitz out

[strange igloo]

yea you can apply burns and they rend while using dueling. Its a nice tech

[strange igloo]

ye

[upper galleon]

I am well aware

[radiant frigate]

we do a bit of rending

[hearty wolf]

Armour should have a chance of breaking your weapon

[strange igloo]

yea I guess

[hearty wolf]

The docket economy would go hard

[strange igloo]

honestly Idk why I really wanted to change it considering the problem in havoc's is boss damage a lot of the time

if you're queuing with randoms

[hearty wolf]

I find that, that's the most insignificant problem in havoc

Ah well. Yeah I guess if you double trigger every encounter, it's going to get more use

[strange igloo]

idk the amount of times I've wiped in havocs to a chaos spawn is pretty horrendous

chaos spawn and the barrier bosses at the same time is pretty bad in high havocs

and for whatever reason, I can't find a +3 stamina curio for my psyker 😩

[radiant frigate]

force greatsword should have a chance of breaking your enemies

[marble crater]

Such is life, gamble with melk

[deft stump]

I found nothing but +3 stam on my psyker lul.

[strange igloo]

I can only find +2

but my zealot has +3

[deft stump]

Totally fun paper with AFK DH block potential.

[strange igloo]

on normal aurics I'll block on my zealot until my buddy one bonks it with hammer

its funny

[deft stump]

I mean psyker. You can do mini oggy shenanigans.

[radiant frigate]

le grand bonque

[hearty wolf]

Agree

[strange igloo]

yea psyker is honestly pretty tanky

[radiant frigate]

separate body and soul on impact

[strange igloo]

it takes more finesse, but it feels tankier than vet lol

[deft stump]

Soul shoots warp damage, is also invul, body takes heavily reduced damage but can't move.

[deft stump]

Wait, we can't friendly fire in this, nvm.

[deft stump]

Vet just gold toughness cheat.

[cosmic sigil]

Please buff vet. 50 shout is not enough 😦

[deft stump]

Refill team toughness as well as 50, yes.

[little elk]

nuh uh

[silver mantle]

Give 300 gold toughness please

[zinc phoenix]

How about reeing so hard you resurrect your team

[deft stump]

Without any penalties, yes.

[deft stump]

Ehm, "NO DYING TILL I SAY SO!"

[zinc phoenix]

“It took three days for Jesus Christ to resurrect himself but for you, my team, this humble Cadian will get it done in seconds”

[analog agate]

Drive by rezzes are hilarious

[wispy bay]

Mentioning someone not an Imperium saint, straight to jail you go.

[zinc phoenix]

I feel like there’s probably some really ancient 80s 40k lore with Jesus as a Saint of the imperium

Because it’d be funny

Metal Jesus with a chainsword and power armor turning ammo into body count

[upper sun]

this game is boring time to argue about it in the forum

[zinc phoenix]

Time for your havoc run

[deft stump]

Carry me through H40 true survivor, yes. Moar anger and reeeeeeeeeeee, yes?

[upper sun]

NO to both

i am gonna have fights on the forum with people who dont want a mission board rework

[wispy bay]

Go jerk off in zealot chat then.

[upper sun]

😠

later

[marble crater]

Enjoy, we can try to do our havoc run this week, should be fun and succesful

[upper sun]

i dont believe u

[marble crater]

[wispy bay]

Warm up with an Auric mael

And wipe again by the server.

[upper sun]

🤔 i think ill just cook for 3 hours

[marble crater]

[plucky flax]

Cook for me son

[marble crater]

Illisi, smite, purgatus with DD and shield

[deft stump]

Eternal book spam the game.

Just get Chaos to remind me about it.

[upper sun]

just take a 600 euro flight

[hearty wolf]

I finished work

We did it

Let's order a dinner

Donner

[marble crater]

Döner?

[upper sun]

ok quick little shitposting break

my stew is stewing

[cosmic sigil]

Shouting should also reload the gun

[hearty wolf]

This wasn't good to read quickly

[upper sun]

bro is stewless

[deft stump]

Insta reload all guns in coherency.

With the +50 gold talent.

[vernal temple]

oof, finally. I love how this frame looks

[marble crater]

Some of those do look pretty nice

[plucky flax]

Don't think it's that expensive to fly to hungary.

[wispy bay]

Depending on when you buy the ticket.

[hearty wolf]

Force your flight to be delayed for 3 1/2 hours and get most of it refunded

Ez

[deft stump]

Depends on country.

[wispy bay]

Can you show us how to do it?

[deft stump]

We get lucky if they give us bread and water free.

[upper sun]

still moee expensive than a bowl of stew

[hearty wolf]

Europe in general is very pog for it

Although I heard the US got some extra protections recently

Past couple of months

Still not as good

[hearty wolf]

First, you need a big backpack

[plucky flax]

Be brown

Jk

[marble crater]

[cosmic sigil]

I tried Irossk fgs bleed. With creeping flames on top. It's so fucking broken lmao

[zinc phoenix]

getting to thirstary is the real trick

[cosmic sigil]

Budapest has some beer spas IIRC

That's Drinkistan

[minor wedge]

Shield is such a gamechanger lol

Shriek is fun and all

but having muties run into your shield and bonk their head

peak comedy

[strange igloo]

shield is the most useful

shriek is great if you can sweat it and play aggro

specifically for purge though

[marble crater]

Shield protects you from the shooters, shriek kills the shooters

[strange igloo]

^

[analog agate]

If this convo is about havoc… yes.

If this convo is about regular…

[jovial juniper]

If it's about regular then anything goes

Except smite shield combo

And Shredder Auto Pistol

[strange igloo]

Yea I just auto assume havoc now but I shouldn't

[deft stump]

True.

[plucky flax]

Havoc too hard.

[deft stump]

More like Auric Exemplar when you have 2 uprising players on your team.

[plucky flax]

[frosty forge]

[deft stump]

Is currently 4/10 btw.

[wispy bay]

I can't solo Havoc 40... Im noob.

[plucky flax]

That is pog

[bitter aspen]

hey yall

just curious, what do yall think the best staff is?

[verbal thistle]

define best

[plucky flax]

Surge and burga

[deft stump]

Yes. Funny thing is going in sedition gets me speed runners and people memeing with shredders.

[bitter aspen]

which one you like to use the most.

[verbal thistle]

gun staff

[deft stump]

Still hell.

[plucky flax]

Bistol staff.

[deft stump]

Also, grims every game because penances.

[frosty forge]

I'm enjoying the havoc LFGs saying "Don't go down, carry your weight, etc..." then the host going down first and quitting

[deft stump]

I mean, you can shove it into ppl's face, you can boomy ppl and they also DoT... Sounds like a staff alright.

[deft stump]

Can leave then. If host leaves, no credit counted.

[plucky flax]

Square-shaped staff op

[bitter aspen]

it may be because im new but

inferno staff is fun

[verbal thistle]

fun is subjective

no one can govern that for you

[frosty forge]

I'm just stood there in awe wondering why bother leaving? What do you accomplish

[verbal thistle]

use whatever you find fun

[bitter aspen]

yeah but like im just

is it considered bad or smth?

[deft stump]

Funni staff, yes.

[verbal thistle]

nope

all staffs are op

[deft stump]

Dunno, ppl be like that.

[deft stump]

Even the square one.

[bitter aspen]

the electric one? the one that looks like a dinnerplate?

[frosty forge]

I liek the round things

With the pointy bits

[deft stump]

No. We joking about Bolt Pistol with moonlight great sword.

But really, all staffs are OP in a way.

[bitter aspen]

ah alright

[zinc phoenix]

I can jump in for a havoc

[frosty forge]

I would love to however I'd promised a friend that I would play some sons of the forest for a bit

[zinc phoenix]

👍

[haughty star]

Inferno stave is boring as fuck. It has its moments but mostly it's just a snoozefest

My favorite way to run inferno is on a bb focused build cuz they go really well together

But bb builds are a meme

[strange igloo]

inferno is meta yea

[upper sun]

they reduced the quality of emperor gifts

im getting purple in auric damn 🚬

[deft stump]

Luck based mission.

[deft stump]

Shush. I want it for Psykinetics.

[marble crater]

It's based on the quality of the player

[haughty star]

Real men take it for flayer

[deft stump]

Also that, but psykinetics.

[haughty star]

[deft stump]

Says the Psyker who gets hit in uprising.

While not lagging.

[zinc phoenix]

i wish i could turn off the garbage things

[upper sun]

ye needs an auto sell option

[zinc phoenix]

i dont need or want trash gear littering my inventory

[upper sun]

i just favorited everything i want so now i can sell all

[haughty star]

Just sell it lol

[haughty star]

Same

[deft stump]

Auto sell with a filter when?

[upper sun]

🚬 remember the good ol days when crafting update first came out

we played inventory for like 2 days

[zinc phoenix]

i have too much stuff to be sure

[upper sun]

9-5 excel sheets
5 to 9 darktide excel sheets

[zinc phoenix]

especially curios holy fuck

my inventory screen lags when i load curios

[upper sun]

curios are easy just sell everything below 410 then redo the ones you want

im talking a lot of smack but i sometimes make a wound curio if i cant find the one i want

[marble crater]

I don't need extra wounds, so I wouldn't know

[upper sun]

wounds for zealot stamina for psyker

way too many of those

[zinc phoenix]

I wish they’d hurry the f up and release curio rework

So tired of curio management as it currently exists

[deft stump]

+9 stam funni.

Gets nothing but trash otherwise.

[wispy bay]

+9 stamina Vet

[upper sun]

theres a curio rework in the works?

[zinc phoenix]

That’s what they said in the blogs for gear rework

[upper sun]

they gotta do something to make them easier to sort through

Oh no i equiped the guardian shield of the bullet angel instead of the emperor's dong of the mandible

i must suffer 5% less toughness now

[haughty star]

I do not think they wanted to take this direction for the game but I think it's a step in the right direction

[vernal temple]

you know what really grinds my gears in this game? That I can survive entire platoons of elites and specials completely untouched, yet get my health slowly chipped away by some drooling poxer in shit-stained pyjamas

how does that even work

[marble crater]

Psyker gaming

[vernal temple]

[radiant frigate]

never underestimate your foe

[jovial juniper]

Kabru gaming

[wispy bay]

Only Scab, mostly melee, anyone wants to have some fun?

[upper sun]

im food maxxing rn

[plucky flax]

I would but my eyes are shutting on their own.

It's only half 7.

Old man.

[deft stump]

How?

[plucky flax]

I slept like shit last night.

I think it's just back to work.

[deft stump]

Again?

[plucky flax]

It's damaging my mental health.

[upper sun]

have u tried sleeping better

[plucky flax]

Yeah why didnt I think of that thank you clad

[upper sun]

happy to help

[plucky flax]

But if I sleep now I'd probably wake at 3am.

[latent fulcrum]

Sorry for budding in like this, but can someone could assist me with the cliffhanger penance?

[deft stump]

I'm older than you.

[plucky flax]

Yes sis

[summer prairie]

@latent fulcrum if you have a plan

[latent fulcrum]

Well a little bit of googling told me that the platform near the beginning of the oubliette map is preferable and a having a someone play as a bullgryn to aggro is the easiest route...

but I am open to suggestions

[summer prairie]

I've no idea, but I'm playing psyker, the enemies don't matter

[deft stump]

The other is the assassination mission in the train station, but it's near the end.

[summer prairie]

9207756629

[radiant frigate]

how old is old

[deft stump]

Kill bots, have the other drop down and start the horde then commit sudoku. person wanting the penance look at the train back where enemies can drop down from and get ready to charge smite.

[deft stump]

Ask Chaos.

[radiant frigate]

@plucky flax how old is old

[plucky flax]

30 is old

[summer prairie]

wrong

[plucky flax]

Don't hit 30 kids.

Stay in your 20s.

[radiant frigate]

is it not recommended to hit 30

very well i will endeavor not to go past 29

[strange igloo]

Im still 29 so does that mean Im dead soon

[plucky flax]

Okay checkout girl.

[radiant frigate]

no but it means your bones will start turning into dust on your next birthday

[radiant frigate]

not wrong

[plucky flax]

[radiant frigate]

physically i'm at checkout
mentally i'm checked out

[strange igloo]

I dont want to turn to dust

that sounds unfortunate

[plucky flax]

Me everyday at work

[marble crater]

Rude

[radiant frigate]

better make haste and research the counterspell for the bones-to-dust curse before it is too late

[latent fulcrum]

sec

[radiant frigate]

real

[deft stump]

You too?

[plucky flax]

Only old people play psyker confirmed.

[marble crater]

I'm 33

[strange igloo]

something, something, steroids? Probably....

[deft stump]

Oooooo.

[strange igloo]

Hey I also play zealot

[deft stump]

You not old enough.

[summer prairie]

I'm older than anyone here claiming to be old, so

[plucky flax]

^50 years old sage

[strange igloo]

Im still young

[plucky flax]

[radiant frigate]

oh i'm not old yet

but i will be old soon enough

[strange igloo]

30 isnt old

[deft stump]

Half in coffin already.

[radiant frigate]

see that's good, keep telling yourself that

[strange igloo]

no no Im still 29

[radiant frigate]

mindset is half the battle

[analog agate]

You’re only old when you are legally allowed to become the president. So ~70

[strange igloo]

people said my back was going to hurt at 25

but Im still spry

[radiant frigate]

presidential candidates be like
rotting corpse
slightly less rotting corpse

[deft stump]

No clue why, just get a younger person who are more in touch ffs.

[deft stump]

Already lost that ages ago. Reflexes commit sudoku, everything hurts.

[prime elk]

We can fix that

I actually fucked up my arm playing Darktide

[deft stump]

Hand go numb from Zealot knoife gameplay.

I even use keep swinging lol

[zinc phoenix]

Youthful of you

[prime elk]

I’ve been trying to play builds that put less stress on my arms

In addition to just playing a lot less

[zinc phoenix]

A fellow out of 30s individual???

[marble crater]

Thank you

[zinc phoenix]

Or as the youths call literally everyone, a boomer 😂

[marble crater]

That's because they don't know what it means, they just think it means old people

[deft stump]

I have turbo and hair trigger. Doesn't help.

[radiant frigate]

overheard the young 'uns talking on the train today

somehow, half their speech is in english

feels like it, anyhow

[deft stump]

Am I weird if I can understand them?

[radiant frigate]

as in, you understand why they do it?

i can only guess they are referencing things i'm not aware of

[deft stump]

More, understand what they are saying.

[radiant frigate]

because there was some pattern to it

[radiant frigate]

idk

one of them said "imagine people" and the other one replied "eww"

honestly? i get that

[deft stump]

Oh, so they talking about themselves.

Isee.

[radiant frigate]

idk

they talk much and say little

[strange igloo]

I laughed at "sudoku"

[radiant frigate]

that or i'm just not hip with the kids

would you solve this..

[strange igloo]

starts to post my fastest extreme times

[radiant frigate]

personally i prefer "commit subaru"

[strange igloo]

I would but Im a toyota elitist

[deft stump]

Is old joke though.

[strange igloo]

it is and I laugh everytime

[deft stump]

Is just blah blah anyway. They just wanna get back on their phones usually.

[strange igloo]

Im ready to get home so I can attempt my 40

well, I have to beat 39 again actually

[deft stump]

Just waiting for the stacked team for pain.

[strange igloo]

Havoc is such a double edged sword

[deft stump]

Is Gloriana.

I don't need to say more.

[strange igloo]

in low havoc's you get bad teammates that can't get past low havocs

in high havoc's you get good teammates but the game gets too hard

[deft stump]

Hey, I'm bad. And yes, it's painfully hard.

[marble crater]

It's fun

[strange igloo]

it feels pretty easy until about 30

maybe a little before

[deft stump]

Uh huh.

[strange igloo]

Im also purge psyker

and knife/relic zealot

[deft stump]

I went from 26 to 40. PAIN.

[radiant frigate]

i fink there is some correlation between age and gamingness in the context of darktide

the older the gamer, the more gaming the gaming

[deft stump]

Eh?

[radiant frigate]

the young'uns? 100% ungaming

[deft stump]

Eh?

[radiant frigate]

bones turning to dust? that's gaming

[strange igloo]

its actually kinda funny how youngins are better at competitive games, and older gamers are better at pve games

but thats just because everyone goes through the great transition from pvp games to pve games (for the most part)

[radiant frigate]

too old to play competitive games
old enough to know you wouldn't want to anyway

[deft stump]

What reflexes? We just have a different mindset, I guess. Also, I still suck anyway.

[radiant frigate]

zen achieved

[strange igloo]

^

[strange igloo]

at some point I stopped tryharding pvp games and started grinding path of exile and rogue likes

and eventually got into darktide

and I've barely looked back

[deft stump]

Oh, that died really fast. I stopped bothering after the jungle nerfs in DOTA2 tbh. Then mostly just co-op stuff with SP RPGs.

[radiant frigate]

singleplayer rpgs are true zen

if they have co-op, even cooler

[strange igloo]

I cant play singleplayer games much anymore

I get bored if Im not playing with someone

[deft stump]

No mood? I understand.

'I still need to play Tales of Arise.

Geh.

Someone kick me to play it.

[strange igloo]

I can still play KH and FF

[fiery stratus]

I'd say the age thing isn't as relevant. Its moreso that kids these days tend to play more PVP focused shit more often because their parents only get them consoles and thats whats popular.

So they just spend their waking lives doing that

Playing fortnite

[strange igloo]

Im pretty extroverted so playing singleplayer games genuinely make me tired after awhile if Im not socializing lol

[deft stump]

Or they play F2P which usually pushes more PvP gameplay to sell shit.

Pay2Win or cosmetics.

And you know controversies on cashing for shinies put you into fighting worse players to get them to spend.

[fiery stratus]

The most popular games for console and shit that have the lowest age range are Apex, Fortnite, new Call of Duty. Shit like that

2 free games

[strange igloo]

I was a hardcore Apex grinder at one point

ngl

[fiery stratus]

Warzone is also free

apex isnt a bad game, ive played a decent amount

[marble crater]

Titanfall 3 when?

[fiery stratus]

Just lots of kids, fortnites worse for it though because thats the target audience. Trying to milk as much money as possible because "MOM I NEED THIS FORTNITE SKINN!!!!!"

[clear heath]

unsupervised kids are also gonna have the free time to practice a pvp game for like thousands of hours

[fiery stratus]

Every child because people are absentee parents

[clear heath]

an average working adult sees a pvp game and thinks "i don't have time to get into this"

[deft stump]

But shiniez trigger my dopamine... Just money.

[fiery stratus]

Throw'em a ps5 and an ipad and its no longer their problem

[strange igloo]

I feel like this age joke just took a dive lol

[fiery stratus]

I mean I buy cosmetics occasionally in games. I'll give obese fish money once a month if they actually release 1 cosmetic piece that doesn't look like shit

[strange igloo]

I just remembered another "single player" game I can play solo without getting bored

Dark Souls 3

but even then, its coop and I play with friends most of the time

[clear heath]

ds3 is peak

[fiery stratus]

Thats attention span tbh

Plenty of great singleplayer games to get sucked into

[strange igloo]

nah I'm just extroverted

and gaming isn't fun if Im not gaming with people

[deft stump]

Rather play those offline. Do not enjoy invasions and such.

[strange igloo]

I get sleepy

[fiery stratus]

See you've never been sucked into a really great RPG. If a game is done well you can't wait to get to the next thing

[strange igloo]

no I definitely have been lol

I just dont really anymore

Like KH2

or FFXV

[fiery stratus]

Never cared for either of those series

[strange igloo]

I loved both

[deft stump]

I wish they were cheaper.

[strange igloo]

they're some of the only series I can still get sucked into

[fiery stratus]

Play Witcher 3

[deft stump]

$140 is like... out of budget.

[strange igloo]

xenoblade chronicles 2 was probably the last jrpg I got sucked into

[nocturne dust]

💀

[strange igloo]

KH3 wasn't great

[analog agate]

Back in my day I played CS and stare at spray painted porn in backalley

[nocturne dust]

Nothing against those series, but I wouldn't call either that great

[clear heath]

I keep dropping witcher 3 because something else comes out and i forget about it

terrible timing

and then i start over again because it's been years and i forgot the whole story

i should do that again

[strange igloo]

Oh Im just talking about singleplayer games that still have my attention

[fiery stratus]

Witcher 3 is a great game, combat suffers a bit from being wonky. If you can get used to it though the executions and whatnot are pretty fun

Kinda soulslike but worse with the combat

[strange igloo]

Shadow of Mordor was also a great singleplayer game

[deft stump]

TF2, but my spray is yuri.

[nocturne dust]

I just played the Witcher 3 on an easy difficulty to skip combat

[strange igloo]

And yall are gonna hate me, but I couldn't get into Witcher

[fiery stratus]

see now thats a game that seems interesting on the surface, but I lost interest because the combat is just mashing buttons

[upper sun]

the combat becomes a joke after you know what to build

i recommend getting a maxxed out save game and started a ng+

[fiery stratus]

Witcher 3 has some of the best writing and most interesting quests of a lot of rpgs

[radiant frigate]

the secret alchemical nightmare build with a bazillion damage, health and spell power waiting in the sidelines:

[analog agate]

I played a lot of it. Still never beat it or made it to blood and wine

[upper sun]

you mean the posion tank build? yeah i played it

[fiery stratus]

blood and wine is a fucking awesome dlc

the main story in blood in wine is great

[upper sun]

blood and wine legit almost made me cry

[radiant frigate]

i never finished blood and wine actually

😭

[upper sun]

NOOOOOO

[fiery stratus]

witcher 3 really knows how to do the characters, pretty much every character is fantastic. It also makes you make real choices, and theres not always a clear good decision, a lot of times people die with any path you choose

[deft stump]

I only wanted to ship Triss and Yennefer.

[nocturne dust]

Blood and Wine is so good it made me get the best ending through context clues the first time

[upper sun]

yen 🤤

[radiant frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/tempting-proposition-offer-sadly-i-must-say-no-the-witcher-yennifer-gif-16021641

[upper sun]

SAME

I got the best ending found the hidden darksouls sword by myself

[fiery stratus]

I didn't even do everything and I got like 120-130 hours in witcher 3 my first playthrough

[upper sun]

and did the sister

[nocturne dust]

[deft stump]

Hrmph.

[nocturne dust]

I never liked Yen or Triss.

[upper sun]

this dude is HEALTHY

[nocturne dust]

Geralt needs to do better 😭

[upper sun]

garalt regularly cheats on yen and yen cheats on him

[fiery stratus]

eh

They're more like fuck buddies

[upper sun]

triss knew he was with ten and didnt tell him because he had a crush on her

[radiant frigate]

of fate

[upper sun]

she moved in

[fiery stratus]

Eventually

[upper sun]

also

shani is fucking underage

[fiery stratus]

But they played it pretty fast and loose

[radiant frigate]

whar

[nocturne dust]

[upper sun]

garelt does NOT deserve someone good he deserves yen

[nocturne dust]

I mean

Geralt can do better by being better

[deft stump]

They should just dump him and...

[nocturne dust]

[upper sun]

17-year-old
In the events of Blood of Elves, Shani is a 17-year-old medical student studying at Oxenfurt Academy. Dandelion, whom she's close friends with, meets up with her after a spat with Rience. The troubadour then asks her to deliver a message to Geralt of The Witcher book, who is hiding in Oxenfurt

[nocturne dust]

begone yuri thot

[radiant frigate]

not a witch hunter gary enjoyer?

[deft stump]

Nu.

[deft stump]

Wat.

[upper sun]

shani is like 1/5th of garelts age

[upper sun]

thats clearly constantin valdor

[deft stump]

Oh. But well, you know I rather women.

[fiery stratus]

We don't talk about the tragedy of Darth Netflix Witcher Series the Unwise

[upper sun]

never happened

[nocturne dust]

I thought you said bi?

[jovial juniper]

Muhfuh looks like Legolas

[fiery stratus]

Fuck anything from the books or games, lets make up our own shit

because our writers are great

[radiant frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/henry-cavill-geralt-of-rivia-the-witcher-fuck-gif-15913480

[fiery stratus]

fuck the source material

[radiant frigate]

season 1 was ok i think

i did not watch more than that

[fiery stratus]

thats when they somewhat stuck to it

[radiant frigate]

Yes

[deft stump]

Technically. I hate the male bit though. So if it's with a guy, he's probs ace and I just enjoy his personality and such.

[fiery stratus]

It completely flip flopped and they did a Lord of the Rings, Rings of Power. We're gonna make up our own shit instead of pulling from the thousands of pages of source material

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/vats-fallout-target-vault-108-gif-12021170

[deft stump]

Am currently dating a lady though, so...

[nocturne dust]

so very tiny itty bitty bi opening on a technicality

[fiery stratus]

One good thing about gamesworkshop, even though they're a real scummy piece of shit company. They at least give a fuck about their property and won't let netflix just pull shit out of their ass

[nocturne dust]

of course, you can't ruin the brand or it makes less money

[deft stump]

More or less, I lean 9.5/.5, women/men

[fiery stratus]

See the problem is no other company sees that, same thing with the halo series

[radiant frigate]

so no men then

[fiery stratus]

Like wtf does that even have to do with anything that happened?

[marble crater]

What Halo series?

[nocturne dust]

Halo is so sad 😔

[fiery stratus]

Theres a halo series on paramount

[nocturne dust]

How the mighty have fallen

[fiery stratus]

And again, nothing in the show makes any fucking sense, the writers have never even seen the fucking game in person

they just pull shit out of their asses

[radiant frigate]

master cheef face reveal? heresy

[deft stump]

Eh, doesn't mean I won't befriend them though. Just no interest that way.

[marble crater]

Forward Unto Dawn is on paramount?

[radiant frigate]

john halo would never do this

[nocturne dust]

Bro, I wish the Halo TV show never got out of development hell

then we would at least have a chance in the future

[fiery stratus]

Sorry, there was a halo series on paramount

it was so bad it got cancled last year after 2 seasons

[nocturne dust]

I'm surprised it got 2 seasons

The first season was literally any generic scifi but written worse

[fiery stratus]

It only got a second because paramount had wishful thinking, hoping it might survive

[wispy bay]

Because they already signed for 2 seasons.

Believing that it would be a hit.

[nocturne dust]

It actually did well the first season

[marble crater]

It's very difficult to follow the source material when you have an ego and think you can do it better, maybe we should be more considered to these hags

[nocturne dust]

Most people watched out of curiosity I bet

[wispy bay]

We got Master Cheek out it so all good.

[nocturne dust]

oh lawd

Master Cheeks

[radiant frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/drawing-a-circle-master-chief-pablo-schreiber-halo-drawing-on-a-mirror-gif-25727216

[wispy bay]

Im active on Halo sub server, it was fucking Chaos.

[marble crater]

"Can't act with the helmet on"
Meanwhile the Mandalorian

[radiant frigate]

fucked up how they take the spartan out of their armor and they're just like
A Guy
a beefy guy but not like unbelievably beefy

[nocturne dust]

https://tenor.com/view/im-cortana-cortana-jen-taylor-halo-my-name-is-cortana-gif-25432941

[radiant frigate]

solution? don't take them out of their armor

[fiery stratus]

They should've just pulled a Darth Vader and had that guy play in the suit, then have the OG voice actor do Master Chief

But they cant do that because they need someone to be a staaaarrr

Like the robocop remake, when his helmet was off 24/7

[radiant frigate]

https://tenor.com/view/cortana-halo-gif-20067665

[nocturne dust]

I'm sure the genetic modifiers that literally killed and permanently handicapped dozens of test subjects (children) left no visible or permanent scarring for Master Cheeks

[marble crater]

Or all the surgeries

[nocturne dust]

Those too

Complete healing

No scars

[deft stump]

Funny how the comics made them look normal as well.

[radiant frigate]

what da point of the surgeries and modifications if the result is just A Guy

why not just give someone roids for greater effect

smh

[nocturne dust]

Buff Guy tho

[marble crater]

Nevermind that MC is supposed to be super pale and a ginger

[radiant frigate]

roids can do that too

[wispy bay]

Talk about no helmet off, Dredd movie with Karl Urban is fucking peak.

[nocturne dust]

but, uh, but... sciency

[marble crater]

Yes, yes it is

[radiant frigate]

um ackchually roids are sciency too

[wispy bay]

Seeing just his chin for over 1h yet still intimidating.

[radiant frigate]

no science? no roids

[nocturne dust]

but future science

[radiant frigate]

how we gonna do future science if we in da present...

uuuuuhhhh

😰

[wispy bay]

Throw that shit Stallon out of here.

[radiant frigate]

look i'm just saying
if we cannot show the thing that Future Science is supposed to make
why not show the things that we can show instead

[fiery stratus]

You'd think master chief would be like a space marine

but hes just some dude

[nocturne dust]

I actually like the Judge Dredd Stallone movie 😭 It's good trash to consume

[radiant frigate]

sure we can't make mjolnir armor but we can make the looks of it

[fiery stratus]

[radiant frigate]

Yes

[fiery stratus]

2012 Dredd movie is one for the books, a one off and fucking fantastic for pretty much everything they tried to do

Not everything can follow a character though

gotta put a NEW ORIGINAL SPIN

on it

[nocturne dust]

I haven't watched it yet

[fiery stratus]

bruhh

[nocturne dust]

I kinda stopped watching everything at one point

[fiery stratus]

You gotta, its how Judge Dredd is supposed to be

[nocturne dust]

too busy playing games

[fiery stratus]

Its like a 90 minute movie

[nocturne dust]

but game

[fiery stratus]

Might be about 2 hours i cant remember

[marble crater]

2-3 havocs

[wispy bay]

Fake nerd

[fiery stratus]

But it doesn't feel long

[nocturne dust]

Nah

this is geek territory 🤓

[wispy bay]

Just admit it.

[fiery stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/law-police-judge-cop-dredd-gif-8606130

[marble crater]

Even the slowmo scene didn't feel long

[fiery stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/judge-dredd-gif-20853316

LAAWWWWWWW

[wispy bay]

I think I watched it on Netflix, but I don't use Netflix for quite a while now.

[fiery stratus]

Karl Urban as Judge Dredd is so much better its not even funny. Stallone is so over the top, and Karl Urbans is so understated and badass

[wispy bay]

Because Karl Urban is a big fucking nerd.

[nocturne dust]

I mean

[fiery stratus]

makes for a great actor/character

[wispy bay]

He knows that, too.

[nocturne dust]

Stallone's movie is during the era where every action movie was over the top

[fiery stratus]

https://tenor.com/view/riddick-vaako-karl-urban-gif-11812354

[nocturne dust]

good trash era

Lots of good action movies where you can turn brain off

[fiery stratus]

Riddick movies are pretty decent

Sure but at the same time its so bad and stupid it just becomes unwatchable, or entertaining

[nocturne dust]

That's what makes it entertaining

[fiery stratus]

Sometimes

[nocturne dust]

🍿

[fiery stratus]

Sometimes its just painful and you cant even laugh at it

[marble crater]

Was there not supposed to a be a new Riddick movie as well?

[wispy bay]

Pitblack is the only one I liked.

[wispy bay]

Apparently it is in the making.

[fiery stratus]

Idk what the deal is with that whole thing. As far as I know Vin Diesel bought the rights to the series

Did you see the 2013 or 14 something one?

[wispy bay]

He has the right for a decade now.

[fiery stratus]

I thought that one was one of the better ones

Pitch black is probably the most well executed, despite the aged cg

[wispy bay]

I don't remember the last one very well.

The second movie is mehhh

[fiery stratus]

Give it a rewatch, its pretty good. Takes place after the events of goofy chronicles

He gets stuck on an alien planet, then he accidently gets identified and it sends out a ping to a group of bounty hunters

[wispy bay]

Man, if WH40k has a movie with Cavill, Urban and Reeves, it would be crazy.

The 3 nerds.

[fiery stratus]

Darktide movie when

[deft stump]

WW3 happens cos why not X Vet used or Y Psyker.

[wispy bay]

A PTSD veteran rejected from social insurance, a hobo, an overweighted man and a drug addict.

[deft stump]

And then the, hah, Z Vet is canon. You play non-canon chars.

[fiery stratus]

Probably the best perspective for a DT movie would be a psyker I'd think

[deft stump]

But which?

[fiery stratus]

Probably the most unique next to the ogryn, but ogryns would probably be too dumb to be a main character

[peak kelp]

Vet

[deft stump]

FLC or GTFO.

[fiery stratus]

Thatd be the most typical sure, but vets are just kinda regular humans

[peak kelp]

Everyman perspective

[fiery stratus]

a vet who gets assigned an ogryn companion like they're supposed to

that i could get behind

[wispy bay]

If you go with Cadian Vet, his PTSD would make him murmur: "My planet is broken, but I won't be."

[fiery stratus]

You know there would be a heartfelt moment where the ogryn would sacrifice themselves to save the rest

https://tenor.com/view/doctor-who-wilfred-mott-salute-gif-5165008

[jovial juniper]

In fact you can make an Ogryn more like BT from Titanfall

[wispy bay]

British salute...

[fiery stratus]

Who would play the ogryn with a big dumb cg head?

[peak kelp]

Whatever regiment marrow is in

Steel legion?

[wispy bay]

Yes

[marble crater]

Protocol 3. Protect the Pilot.

[deft stump]

But be saved by the lucky gremlin barging in.

[jovial juniper]

It's probably a scene from Doctor Who

Not that it matters

[nocturne dust]

and then they show up two minutes later tied up in a corner

[fiery stratus]

They get captured instead

[wispy bay]

Marrow is from Armageddon Steel Legion.

[peak kelp]

Yea do them

Fuck cadians

Whiney bitch babies

[wispy bay]

Daring today aren't we.

[fiery stratus]

this is hollywood and nobody knows anything, so they'd have to start the first 15 minutes showing cadia getting fucked up, then jumpcut to the vet main character years later

[marble crater]

Lets tear your planet apart, see how you feel

[wind spruce]

So like the start of Firefly

[fiery stratus]

Classic trope/pacing

[deft stump]

See, why have the Loose Cannon vet instead.

[jovial juniper]

Like, transitions through the reflex of his goggles on the gasmask

[haughty star]

I cant wait for vin diesel to be the main char in a ark story campaign

[wispy bay]

The beginning of the era Indomitus.

[peak kelp]

A side note, looking at the characters of the game, I didn't realize inquisitors were so powerful

Authority second only to the emperor

[nocturne dust]

need to go further back, start with Emps on the throne

[deft stump]

They can totally dook you over if they dislike you.

[nocturne dust]

45 minutes of backstory per 15 minutes of actual movie

[jovial juniper]

Well they are chosen by the emps, sorta

[wispy bay]

Man, the more you guys want to do fanfic of this, the more it sounds like the stupid Rebel Moon by Zack Snyder.

[fiery stratus]

See the problem is you can't go too fantasy with with. 40k isn't as high fantasy but I feel like the whole horace heresy thing would throw a lot of normies off

[deft stump]

The problem is, which personality for each class to go with.

[fiery stratus]

That one vet voice everyone uses

[jovial juniper]

Give me like what? 4-6 years then I'll become a director so I'll get the plot from this one obscure movie from the 60s or something then portray at 40k

[deft stump]

Loose Cannon best.

[strong gulch]

There's always a sniper at both ends of a laser.

[jovial juniper]

Loose Cannon but starts with the "Neck deep in my mates blood"

Scene

[nocturne dust]

Seer for Psyker

[jovial juniper]

Needs some contrast
So add a savant cameo

[deft stump]

WW3 over personalities incoming.

[fiery stratus]

But wait, imagine if the main character was a psyker and they showed flashbacks of the warp and shit

thatd be real fuckin neato

[nocturne dust]

flashbacks?

Just show Psyker vision every now and then where Daemons are constantly giving hallucinations

[fiery stratus]

Flashbacks of their experience with it, i know the warp is a constant

[upper sun]

judge
savant
loose canon
body guard

ez

[marble crater]

Sniper laser's are USB B? Check one side, nothing, check other side, nothing. Check first side again, oh sniper

[nocturne dust]

Can't believe you got every personality wrong except Ogryn

[upper sun]

no u

[wispy bay]

I will stand my ground for Cadian Cutthroat.

[nocturne dust]

no u

[marble crater]

no u

[upper sun]

no u

[deft stump]

F!Fanatic, F!loner, F!loose canon. IDK Oggy.

[fiery stratus]

Brawler

[strong gulch]

Talking about possible sniper modifiers.

What you said is just true. I stay losing the 50/50 puzzle.

[fiery stratus]

Thinking of a DT movie, all I can think of is the probably terrible CG monstrosity they'd show

[deft stump]

The spawn?

[fiery stratus]

Definitely the most threatening i'd say

plague ogryns probably spooky to people out of the loop, but spawns fast af

https://tenor.com/view/keemstar-im-fast-as-fuck-boi-keemstar-run-running-fast-gif-18083431

[deft stump]

Requires the squad to care more unless blockfest.

Heh.

[fiery stratus]

idk how'd they do the abilities tbh, you'd have to have that to some extent

just hamfist it and say its power granted by the emperor and dont elaborate further

[minor wedge]

Bruh....

I'm gonna have a cry

[fiery stratus]

bet

[minor wedge]

heresy A-I-II maelstrom

NOONE

brings bosskiller builds except me

-.-

[fiery stratus]

yes

[hearty wolf]

That's cold

[fiery stratus]

unfortunately you can't play normal board, or auric maelstrom in this game, and not expect teammates to be clueless

[hearty wolf]

That's going to be my new voice like when I kill snipers

[deft stump]

Does 3 kraks count?

[fiery stratus]

that would be how they'd kill the chaos spawn in the movie

main character vet gets picked up, shoves krak in spawns mouth

[hearty wolf]

@strong gulch @nocturne dust availability now?

[fiery stratus]

head go boom

[deft stump]

The F!loose cannon jumps in from out of scene with a handful of stolen or not kraks and tosses the lot into the spawn's maw.

[wispy bay]

For the slug, it will be the zealot charging head on then uses a incendiary grenade to kill it.

[deft stump]

Wisecracking about it.

Oggy vs poggy go.

Needs the charge into charge.

[strong gulch]

i can do a run in a couple minutes

[wispy bay]

Psyker vs DH "BUzzz buzzz buzzz buzzz buzzz buzz buzz buzz buzz"

[fathom adder]

Zealot charges it, uses a Relic Blade to carve it open, then shoves a melta bomb or something into it before the wound closes up

[wispy bay]

Such a rookie move. Real hobo use Thammer.

[hearty wolf]

Where void :(

[marble crater]

And then the Vet says something like "Wow, I didn't know you could use that war hammer" Roll credits

[fathom adder]

Only at the end of the movie, when the party finally obtains The Warhammer Forty Thousand

[marble crater]

[strong gulch]

IDK. Ready tho

[deft stump]

After credits scene filled with groaners.

[wispy bay]

NAh, it's the Ogryn saying "Now, this is a WarHammer!" and everyone laugh.

[marble crater]

"This is a Wa... War... This is a WarHam... WarHammer"

[deft stump]

More groaners.

[fathom adder]

Male Loose Cannon challenges Abaddon to a dance-off, then while he's distracted the Ogryn throws the Zealot and the Zealot throws the thammer at him

[wispy bay]

which server?

Because it could be too laggy for me.

[deft stump]

Is more, after credits scenes tend to be jokes... Unless they plan on a sequel.

[hearty wolf]

Don't really care. Eu or NA east probs

[wispy bay]

Ok, I can come to ruin the game for you guys.

[fathom adder]

And then somebody says "uh oh, now THIS is happening!" because it's 2025 and good writers left Hollywood decades ago

[hearty wolf]

One more for Bean survivor?

[marble crater]

[hearty wolf]

[marble crater]

Okay, I also still need it

[hearty wolf]

Come for it :>

[marble crater]

[deft stump]

Honestly, would join if I didn't feel as if I wouldn't just burden you guys.

[nocturne dust]

Git gud

I believe in you

[strong gulch]

I'm a burden to myself rn. lmao

[deft stump]

Some people just can't.

[zinc phoenix]

Yall doing a run? Happy to help fuck it up for you 😃

[strong gulch]

We are and we got a full party atm. I'm doing the fecking up right now.

[hearty wolf]

I believe in getting gud

[zinc phoenix]

Nice, continue to hold the flag high 😂

If you need one for the next couple hours @ me

[deft stump]

You know some people have limits.

[fringe garden]

Just practice more

At least with video games, I do think determination has more to do with skill level than anything else. Barring injury or some unavoidable circumstance like that.

[nocturne dust]

Eh, I mean, reaction times differ greatly and if the game is heavily reliant on good reactions then you might never be able to git gud enough

But 90% of Darktide's difficulty is it ignoring its own rules

[deft stump]

Basically that.

[nocturne dust]

eeehhhh

I mean, Darktide has a big hand in reaction times, but you can work through it with enough practice by predicting enemies and using something like spidey sense

[fiery stratus]

Server.exe has entered the chat

[nocturne dust]

Server.exe has crashed

No amount of skill will save you from the servers deciding to kill you

[deft stump]

Are you telling me to cheat mod?

[nocturne dust]

Yes

If Darktide doesn't play by its rules, why should you?

[hearty wolf]

@deft stump No I believe in you

[deft stump]

I mean, more info means panic even more, right?

[peak kelp]

Is a psyker build that just spams left click from staff a thing

[hearty wolf]

No it means

Uhh

Profit!

[nocturne dust]

Yes

Is it good? Eh

Only if you use quell cancelling does it become broken

and for that you either need a macro or to break your fingers

without quell cancelling it's both boring and less effective than just RMB spam

and that's for the Electrokinetic staff, which is the best at LMB spam

[peak kelp]

I was in a game with a psyker doing it, they did 3x the damage of anyone else

It looked unnatural I am assuming you need a macro

[nocturne dust]

I mean, you can do 3x the damage of everyone else in pubs normally

using any staff

🤷‍♂️

Pubs are pubs

[analog agate]

Macro is the only practical way to do it. You can stand in place and do it. But it wouldn’t affect your overall dmg much

[nocturne dust]

You can definitely do an LMB build though, it's just super boring

and I say that as someone who loves Inferno

[peak kelp]

Not wanting to do it just curious

Never seen anything like it

[analog agate]

Not as boring as smite and inferno imo

[nocturne dust]

Nah, it's worse

[analog agate]

At least you have to aim

[nocturne dust]

The LMB spam is so monotonous it's like drying paint

[nocturne dust]

Do you though? Everything gets suppressed

[peak kelp]

Also he never quelled once just infinite bolts

[analog agate]

I mean. You still want to hit heads.

[nocturne dust]

At least with Inferno there's some actual playstyle to positioning for ranged enemies and how you charge the weapon

[deft stump]

[analog agate]

I guess

[nocturne dust]

LMB spam is literally 'hold button, look at enemies'

[peak kelp]

How do you never quell?

[nocturne dust]

battle meditation + empyric resolve and maybe inner tranquility for good measure

[analog agate]

Dude probably did a self quell build. Maybe did transfer peril on staff too

[deft stump]

Get lucky at the chance to quell on kill.

[nocturne dust]

they could've done transfer peril, yeah

That's probably the easiest way to never quell

[deft stump]

Might be all of the above for best chances.

[nocturne dust]

I mean, add shriek as well

[peak kelp]

No shriek

He used smite once

To open up a bulwark shield

[analog agate]

What a weirdo

[nocturne dust]

then either Battle Meditation or Transfer Peril

with maybe ER to help

[peak kelp]

Like it was full auto helicopter mode forever with no quell animation

Is there some sort of quell tech with macros

[nocturne dust]

no

It would have to be a passive quell thing like BM or Transfer Peril

quell cancelling doesn't let you actually quell, it just starts and ends the animation too quickly
