Well, if it does change a crusher or mauler breakpoint, then it's worth taking, as long as you aren't sacrificing a different breakpoint for it.

Because crushers and maulers are going to be what you engage in melee with most of the time.

brazen rampart
Rending is a flat increase to your armor damage modifiers across the board.

flamers take triple melee damage
like most specialists do
brazen rampart
Infested and unarmored armors always take 100% damage, everything else takes less in varying measures.
Rending is mainly used to increase carapace damage.
cedar pagoda
eh id pass on it then
brazen rampart
Most weapons have a .2 or .3ish adm vs carapace.
Uncanny strike can boost it to beyond 100% damage dealt.

Iirc it's like every 4% rending overflow is 1% damage bonus.

Sounds great, until you learn how fatshark handles crit and weakspot damage perks.
Let's say you do 100 damage normally, but a crit will increase your damage to 150.
Crit damage only affects the bonus 50.
So your 10% bonus crit damage boosts it from 150 to 155.
Weakspot damage perk works the exact same way.
cedar pagoda
Weakspot damage perk works the exact same way.
raven mountain
So your 10% bonus crit damage boosts it from 150 to 155.
This is why the Accatran shotgun doesn't scale as hard as the slug one. They have the same crit or weak point or something, but the slug has a base several hundred points lower. So any increased damage gets amplified far harder on that one.

weary idol
It's simple enough
Both marks can get away with spamming light attacks for horde clear and heavies for single target
and you have the unique special that builds up as you kill enemies
1 charge kills fodder enemies such as poxwalkers and groanersd
2 charges kills weaker elites and cripples bigger ones
neat dome
for me. the weapon falls short on anything with armor.

I think what Bunnii is saying us FGS6 with shred and unstable power blessings. Perks would be cara + unyielding. There is a talents on the right side called Warp Splitting that increases cleave with peril. It is selected in the build I sent you.
weary idol
for me. the weapon falls short on anything with armor.
It can be underwhelming on regular psyker builds for that
But with Scrier's Gaze and DD up it's a semi consistent 2 shot into Crushers and Maulers

The way enemies hunt players needs to be completely changed
They just have a patrol that arbitrarily follows your exact location to force aggression right now

I think it's pretty obvious they aren't
weary idol
There used to only be a few balance outliers but now it's absurd
halcyon plover
if you're trying to get a challenging game out of Helldivers 2 you have only yourself to blame at this point
novel yoke
nah even before the 60 day patch it was just people jumping from meta to meta
weary idol
Yeah because they were bad and needed the metas to play on those difficulties
But good players you had a lot of variety in viable weapons

Ragdolling is STILL an issue

dude, Hulk bodies exploding on death can ragdoll you from 16 meters away

Oh speaking of the ragdolling it's kind of a symptom of Helldivers 2 not having a fundamental requirement in enemy design to force teamplay

yeah it actually forces you to have spatial awareness, which is really a basic skill at this point in most 4 player co-op games, and how you can avoid them all by just like, sitting on a rock

There are two different patrol types
One follows a fixed path, the other just follows the players at all times
And when all the light enemies on automatons can call for reinforcements, it’s not so much spacial awareness as it is “Woe, three factory striders be upon ye”
novel yoke
is it really a patrol if its actually a reinforcement
prisma niche
When the reinforcements are basically guaranteed
Yes

Was the trident released?
