A Callidus assassin can in fact near-perfectly mimic anything that isn't a fucking mindless robot.

Gotta get close to the target somehow, gooner tactics included

I wonder what the reaction would be if they followed George Romero's zombie evolution and gave Flayed ones the ability to use guns again.
Then again, it would have to be something like bows or stubbers, if they want the skin.

istg I thought TDK was old flayed ones lore
but I might just be developing dementia on that part

That's been their lore for longer than some of you have been alive.

And baby eating as well apparently
There was an assassin who ate a baby in the lore lmao
Straight up swallowed it whole like a snake
lament shoal
She did it to get a planetary governor who was neglecting is duties to lock in
By fucking eating his infant son
😭

or was his target the baby
Her objective was to get the planetary govenor to lock in or replace him lol

so it was just in hsi mouth or something?

That is another organization under the Magisterium

There’s like 3 layers to this

But yes each of those organizations is an escalation
If the prefecture wants you, death is likely preferable to what they’re going to do to you
also the organization not going traitor with Kelbor Hal is hilarious considering the only person they answered to pre heresy was the fabricator general of mars

Unless they have severe PTSD they're going to have an innate desire to unconditionally protect and care for their fellows.
And Ratlings will just fuck everything that moves.
Ratlings are just Alcoholic Bonobos.

....the fuck does that have to do with anything
storm jungle

Also accurate.
especially considering abhumans are basically a slave caste in the Imperium in all but name lol
Kroot are chill af
surreal nest
I feel like ogryns are kinda assholes by default
storm jungle
I wouldnt say default but it very much depends on how they are "taught".
they are basically mentally manipulated by the Imperium so lol
outer wave
Ogryns are just like people: they can absolutely be assholes if taught to be that way
storm jungle
^^^
its why im glad Bully exists in darktide
people love the idea of all ogryns just being nice idiots
surreal nest
Well i guess not assholes but probably just rude because yknow
outer wave
I love that the Bully is a cunning asshole of sorts
storm jungle
Same, its a nice break from the Dumbass Nice Ogryn trope you see everywhere
which is just extremely tiring when you remember these are basically treated as "acceptable subhumans"
or are literally used as slaves lol
surreal nest
Not like purposely rude but rude due to being dumb as bricks
storm jungle
YEP
surreal nest
And they're only acceptable because they're so loveable
Thats crazy that I never processed that

Not like purposely rude but rude due to being dumb as bricks
A socially awkward ogryn could definitely be like that
storm jungle
Me and my pal Rabs are editing the lexicanum page for some new lore rn and that one Killteam book and W&G goes a lot into how badly ratlings are treated
down to the entire reason they steal shit/booby trap their teammates is because they are treated like freaks lol
storm jungle
Thats so badass
Basically they look after their own
because no one else will
the whole world is against them
etc
surreal nest
Im ngl I like them but I cant paint them I wish they had fucking big shoes
Their big stompas are too much theyre intimidating
outer wave
If I were nice to a ratling, would they be nice to me?
surreal nest
Thats so sad
storm jungle
If I were nice to a ratling, would they be nice to me?
Hating humans is ingrained into most of them due to how shit they are treated but if you prove your friendly worth to them they will yeah.
Most ratlings just put up with guardsman because "we are in this together unfortunately lol"
surreal nest
They have to find people who feel bad for them or bribe them just to get adequate temporary treatment thats crazy
storm jungle

Warhammer Crime also thoroughly explores this with Baggit the ratling and Clodd the ogryn, its really tragic stuff.

Aren't ratlings like very talented marksman too??? Like nothing to scoff at

so they gotta steal them lol
says a lot tbh
surreal nest
Shit talking a ratling and now you have a will-e coyote stunt where theyre sawing a circle on the floor under your ammo cache
pulsar stump
down to the entire reason they steal shit/booby trap their teammates is because ...
And they're treated like Freaks because they're lecherous little kleptomaniacs who're just as likely to cook a 5-star Michelin meal as they are to pawn your shoes off for a bottle of cheap whiskey.

And they do this exact same thing because you treat them like freaks.
they are human beings just anyone else, just shorter due to mutations lol

And the worst.
pulsar stump
They 100% live up to both of their stereotypes.
surreal nest
Are ratlings conscripted?
storm jungle
Yeah.
surreal nest
They 100% live up to both of their stereotypes.
I mean its stealing for survival at this point
They dont get supplies
And even then stealing is a valid crime in every regard if its against authority
pulsar stump
They dont get supplies
And they don't get supplies because they already robbed a regiment blind.
Meaning they don't need to be supplied.
The upside to this is that they've somehow grabbed an Exitus Rifle.
lament shoal
What exactly makes them good snipers?
storm jungle
Let me get the KT book

Im pretty sure they dont get the supplies before they start robbing
storm jungle

surreal nest
Like the lore entry said
storm jungle
like, you do realise normal people start this cycle right
if they treated ratlings normally these wouldnt happen
surreal nest
Even if they were stealing just to steal who cares theyre forceful servants to a war effort for a government that hates them
pulsar stump
What exactly makes them good snipers?
Because they're small, fast, have an innate blank aura that makes people ignore them & can Hyper-Focus on things.
pulsar stump
You drop a shiny rock in warzone.
Will the Blood Raven, Loota or Ratling steal it first.

Yeah we got it the first 3 times you said it.
they steal stuff
thats their thing
pulsar stump
Yeah.
storm jungle
anyway
storm jungle
What exactly makes them good snipers?
TLDR: We basically dont know as per modern lore, they simply just are.
It could be chalked up from the evidence here that they just train themselves in long range combat compared to close assaults.
pulsar stump
If the modern "lore" doesn't know, then it isn't lore.
It's the writer's opinion.
storm jungle
It could be chalked up from the evidence here that they just train themselves in...
but as I was saying (personal theory added from this) its probably then just passed off as a skill to fellow other ratlings in the sharpshooting tree but who knows. Otherwise as it says they also just use their abhuman stature to wage guerilla warfare.
and thats kinda it in current lore really
outer wave
Ratlings are just naturally good at doing this stuff, and thats a fine enough explanation tbh
storm jungle
Yeah pretty much.
I dont know what this "blank aura" thing is lol
people just ignore them because they are considered beneath them as mutants and arent worth paying attention. (which is outright said by Baggit in Wraithbone Phoenix)
Also short.
outer wave
I dont know what this "blank aura" thing is lol
Its when you zone out in public and then everyone else zones out
surreal nest
tbh even without lore explanation them being very nimble little guys already makes them easily specialized for recon and sniping
storm jungle
Yeah pretty much
surreal nest
like we dont have to be told in a lore entry that ogryns are strong
lament shoal
It could be chalked up from the evidence here that they just train themselves in...
Ty
surreal nest
just fucking look at them
storm jungle
like we dont have to be told in a lore entry that ogryns are strong
its why I just assume they are self-taught then pass the teachins to their fellow ratlings since as the KT says they are very close-knit.
as per that Captain Price ratling who literally says you cannot trust anyone but your own lol
surreal nest
They just seem so chill
surreal nest

War Thunder Players pulling up to the "Addicted to the most unfun game in existence" contest:
arctic talon
Hell deadlock will probably make a fortune out of skins
God I hope the game doesn’t do character skins that break the aesthetic “vibe” of the game
But it’s inevitable lol
I’d take gun skins any day
shadow plover
War Thunder could probably be fine if the maps weren't absolute garbage and the air battles weren't a such a dated design
pulsar stump
Deadlock is just Valve mogging Blizzard by making a Hero Shooter that's not complete trash.
pulsar stump
It’s a 3D moba with guns
That's what a Hero Shooter is.
shadow plover
Siege is more of a hero shooter than deadlock
arctic talon
And turrets
shadow plover
(I wish it weren't)
arctic talon
And also the way characters are balanced is completely dif from hero shooters
There are literally characters in deadlock
Where your gun is basically vestigial beyond early game lol
There’s also no hero shooter with this much fall off that on every single characters gun
queen laurel
Where your gun is basically vestigial beyond early game lol
Yeah and it can stay vestigial or very minimally useful depending on the character you're playing
of course there are gun build characters
arctic talon
If you build gun Kelvin, or Paige you are literally trolling
If you can name a single hero shooter character who’s primary job is killing people where using their gun beyond last hitting creeps is actively detrimental
pulsar stump
Siege is more of a hero shooter than deadlock
Rainbow Six fell off.
pulsar stump
It's been falling off since Vegas.
arctic talon
Genuinely I’m curious
If there’s a single character in a hero shooter where using their gun is actively detrimental
shadow plover
Siege was pretty good for the first year
arctic talon
To your damage output and support value
shadow plover
Lucio I guess
arctic talon
Paige and Kelvin’s guns literally exist for laning phase and nothing else
queen laurel
If you build gun Kelvin, or Paige you are literally trolling
brawl characters in deadlock like one of the few that build gun damage and melee
arctic talon
Lucio I guess
Lucio does not actively get worse at healing, dealing damage or speeding up if you shoot his gun
pulsar stump
I would remind you all that Valve created the Demoknight.
arctic talon
Kelvin literally does lol
Unfortunately Deadlock had the curse of Icefrog
Which means we’re all slaves to his glorious vision
shadow plover
what's icefrog
shadow plover
ah
arctic talon
Aka you play the game how he envisions it and how he balances it
lol
Which isn’t a bad thing, it’s just funny
It leads to some very nonsensical things at times
shadow plover
better than letting the masses yell the devs into submission and making the game worse because of it I guess
arctic talon
Yeah icefrog just does his own thing
queen laurel
The lead game designer for deadlock
so that's wheres that weird feeling comes from every time I play
arctic talon
Unfortunately(or fortunately) icefrog is of the part of the DOTA team that thinks 80 to 20 matchups are fine
shadow plover
though I couldn't care less about Dota and Deadlock is just kinda there I guess
arctic talon
DOTA’s team pretty much split in 2 philosophically balance wise lol
Anyways point being icefrog does not care if someone has a 30% winrate if it fits his vision
queen laurel
DOTA’s team pretty much split in 2 philosophically balance wise lol
The normal ones and the psychologically insane
queen laurel
Just one is more insane then the other
ah the imperium
arctic talon
anyways Paige’s gun is genuinely so awful
Her gun literally is slower then ranged creep auto attacks
queen laurel
anyways Paige’s gun is genuinely so awful
isn't she like a support character
shadow plover
is Paige a new character
arctic talon
Yeah
arctic talon
isn't she like a support character
She’s a support but that isn’t an excuse for her gun to be the worst thing known to exist
Ivy’s gun is great
And she’s as much of a support as Paige is
Paige just makes you fucking explode when she presses her abilities instead
So load up on spirit and CDR
queen laurel
is Paige a new character
yes
shadow plover
mkay
queen laurel
Paige just makes you fucking explode when she presses her abilities instead
so when You catch her off guard it's the best way to kill her
kill her before she pops her ability or catch her off cooldown
arctic talon
rocky gale
Love the interaction Paige has with Vyper
rocky gale
Where Vyper thinks Paige is a stripper she knows and Paige just doesn't understand what she's talking about
shadow plover
I have a feeling she's a literal snake
queen laurel
She’s such a snake
i mean she is a criminal so
queen laurel
I have a feeling she's a literal snake
well not exactly more like a hybrid between a snake and a human but no snake legs just human limbs
shadow plover
so a snake
queen laurel
so a snake
yes
arctic talon
I have a feeling she's a literal snake
Yeah
She also plays like a snake
She can slide(read: slither) on any surface and is very mobile
And also shivs you
queen laurel
She can slide(read: slither) on any surface and is very mobile
so she would be mained by a skaven
arctic talon
Dead broke criminal, and is a snake(both literal and figurative)
Also talks like

she sounds like the type of person to me who has so low energy they are just kind of done with just about everything and just do whatever the hell they want
queen laurel
lol
I do love the fact that one of her character quirks is the fact that she's one of the few people that could get under lash's skin
She is such a obsessed fan that even lash is like

One of the lines lash has for killing her is “I need her to get away from me. As far as possible.”
