#

She kinda looks about age at least

sacred ginkgo
#

Its the eyes

arctic talon
#

also the East asian skin buff, people look younger then their age until a point

#

and then they look super old

sacred ginkgo
#

Thats the best way to convey it in this style

arctic talon
#

I saw it happen with my grandparents

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

Also donqui is like 2000 or smth and you don't care

arctic talon
#

I'm more so saying in terms of context for how they see people age around them

#

also yeah its a fantasy/sci-fi setting

#

being old is a myth

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

The setting timescale is also really short

outer wave
#

Like her body hasnt aged since the day she turned

sacred ginkgo
#

Pretty sure she has shes just that short

outer wave
#

Do bloodfiends age?

sacred ginkgo
#

Like

#

Excessively slowly

#

Or maybe not at all

outer wave
#

Dulcenia I dont think changes much at between when you see her in the past and then when you see her in the present; I think Nicola ages a bit, but thats more scarring from her attempting to stitch a mask onto her face and the fact she's starving

sacred ginkgo
#

They only start to look old when they starve

outer wave
#

Yeah

vagrant fox
sacred ginkgo
#

The Manchegans are all fit in the 200 years ago flashbacks

#

They just shrink when hungry or smth

arctic talon
sacred ginkgo
#

Or lose their skin if they get old enough i guess

#

The h Corp bloodfiend elder was weird

vagrant fox
sacred ginkgo
#

They must'have been a second kindred or below

arctic talon
#

There’s also just how some people have obsessive skin care routines

#

And minimize sun exposure

rocky gale
#

Built the first of my little Barons War guys

arctic talon
#

The sun makes you look old

outer wave
rocky gale
#

My little goober knights

sacred ginkgo
#

They keep him fed

rocky gale
#

Also realised that there was another Wargame Atlantic game called "Guards of Traitors Toll" which had more bodies which can be built as armoured Knights, in the same scale

heady rivet
rocky gale
#

and Guards of Traitors Toll has female armoured bodies and heads, which I used for the middle one

#

So she's going to be my Baron

vagrant fox
#

Some kind of robber baron?

#

I change my mind about 11e launch box blangels they're cool

rocky gale
#

Na like a Baron Baron

outer wave
#

@sacred ginkgo I quite love the Ring's theme in this game

#

Its quite nice

#

Very soothing to my ears as someone screams about how their sternum has been turned to a corporist piece

sacred ginkgo
#

Cut your rings is a nice track

#

Or is it the battle theme you refer to

outer wave
#

Its the OST in cutscenes

sacred ginkgo
#

Then yeah Cut Your Rings is the name

#

The storytelling with their dialogue music is soooo good in canto 9

#

It does half the work of their character

outer wave
#

I like the Thumb's theme where it sounds a bit western-y

sacred ginkgo
#

A very twilight theme

outer wave
#

Mhmmmm

#

Which fits Valencia since her career has twilighted long ago

sacred ginkgo
#

The end of a day, or of a lives legacy

#

Where are you now

outer wave
#

About to fight Calliso and Albina the second time

sacred ginkgo
#

Get ready

#

Let the deus ex machina adventures begin

outer wave
#

Oh boy

#

Im glad these arent like the MD hard mode fights

sacred ginkgo
#

Those are easier

outer wave
#

They're NOT easy, but they're bearable enough to get through I feel

sacred ginkgo
#

As long as you do them before floor 13

outer wave
#

Valencia's "Everything is struggling/hopeless" was not great

sacred ginkgo
#

Luckily verg is nice and will reprioritize to meet your assignments

outer wave
#

Thank goodness yeah

sacred ginkgo
#

Our goat

#

Didn't even need ego to fucking dunk valencina

outer wave
#

Im not the biggest fan of being DMPC'd in some of these fights, but I can appreciate it for these harder fights a bit

sacred ginkgo
#

Yeah its my most major gripe with canto 9

outer wave
#

Like the Sora fight near the beginning was not that great

#

Yeaaaaah

sacred ginkgo
#

Vespa showing up to kick her ass is fun

#

But having assistants in like every late fight is lame

outer wave
#

Mhmmmmm

sacred ginkgo
#

It makes sense, theres no way in fuck you're killing Mathias with the sinners

#

But it still feels weird for the future

outer wave
#

No, but the children at least should be beatable

#

Like NONE of these Nursefathers we should be able to beat in a fair fight

#

But Sora was ugh

#

That stuck out to me badly

sacred ginkgo
#

She's the strongest apprentice by far

#

Shin, Mang, and an Efflorescence

outer wave
#

Especially since the character that came in is someone that you wouldnt be familiar with unless you read Distortion Detective, which is I dunno man, I liked that Limbus was able to get people up to speed without needing to go into any previous PM installment before

sacred ginkgo
#

Its kind of a necessity of late plot at this point

#

Threads are coming together

#

And you're getting up to the larger scale of the world, which is more affected by the past

#

Luckily distortion detective is both quick and free

outer wave
#

I may give it a read later

sacred ginkgo
#

This has links to every chapter

outer wave
#

Thank ya

sacred ginkgo
#

Its like 2-4 hours or so

#

Not long, but I also read fast

#

Also read Leviathan if you haven't, you can find it in a top rated steam guide of the same name

outer wave
#

Poggy

#

Me when Im trying for a new hairstyle

sacred ginkgo
#

The best part of Leviathan is that it contextualizes vergilus' intervention in Impenetrable Path

sacred ginkgo
outer wave
#

My son WILL lock in

sacred ginkgo
#

And he WILL ||become racist||

steel ingot
#

1 limbillion n corp deaths to satisfy me

outer wave
#

I cant wait for Mersault's canto to just be him shooting 9 billion N corp employees and heads because the sun got into his eyes

steel ingot
#

if they make Penelope a man im gonna kill KJH myself

#

he wont have to worry about korean men no more he'll have to worry about ME

outer wave
#

Outis having a wife I imagine would cause a big Korean Chud response

steel ingot
#

i only accept GAY war criminals, straight ones get tried at the hague all the same

outer wave
#

Actually, there's a thought that Outis may actually be Penelope

sacred ginkgo
steel ingot
#

and she's peak lesbian that fucking sunset line at the end KILLS

outer wave
#

Yeah I wasnt convinced about that ship until that line

steel ingot
#

if you are "intepreting" them not as lovers you couldn't interpret your way out of a paper bag

outer wave
#

Then I went "Okay, I see why"

steel ingot
#

the sunset line ALONE is enough

outer wave
#

WHOA HUSBAND....

sacred ginkgo
steel ingot
#

cooler sinclair is so funny

#

like can we trade him

#

for the newer model

sacred ginkgo
outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

What The War does to a mf

outer wave
#

Oh I guess Sinclair does go to a war in the original source materla

sacred ginkgo
#

Read all his passives and skill

#

They're full of flavor text

steel ingot
#

did you guys know if you make a full middle team and do the unwinnable ricardo fight he just ends the fight and forgives you

#

crazy stuff

#

its like when you bring n corp sinclair to the end of his canto

outer wave
steel ingot
#

ncorp be wildin

#

what do they even dooooooo

steel ingot
#

at least k corp makes yummy chicken

#

byproduct of the torment nexus

#

kinda insane that kcorp literally has the actual 100% for real torment nexus

#

like what else could you describe the device as

outer wave
#

YEAH WEED WAR!! THE WEED WAR!!!!

sacred ginkgo
#

Who?

outer wave
#

Full Metal Alchemist protag

steel ingot
#

full metal alchemist

#

cant forget the second time

sacred ginkgo
#

Sinclair dual wielding my favorite two weapons cause he's fucking based

outer wave
#

I genuinely wanna see the defeat condition be obtained

#

Sinclair dying in this encounter

sacred ginkgo
#

I don't think he could

#

Callisto is the weakest nursefather and Sinclair is just fucking dunking on him

raven stone
#

@storm jungle I read enough of Hive at this point to know (probably one off) the major tabletop factions at play beside IoM itself (without the book naming it).
And all I can say is, shit is gonna hit the fan extra hard.

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

Wait there is

outer wave
#

Like I could've just been guarding the whole time and probably would've won anyway

sacred ginkgo
#

I thought you were talking hypothetically

outer wave
#

No, its a legit passive he has!

#

I dont get why they even slapped that on him

sacred ginkgo
#

Oh then I forgot

#

I beat that encounter day of release

outer wave
#

There is no way he'd die in this fight unless he got insanely unlucky

#

Lowkey wish that were possible

#

Maybe if there's a couple IDs with Faust and Ishmael that harm allies

#

I noticed that his halberd is the exact same one he uses from LCB

#

Its now just chipped

sacred ginkgo
outer wave
#

Yeah

sacred ginkgo
#

Only fell bullet, reindeer, or HoS can ff

outer wave
#

#

Tom Cruise when you reach the end of the Scientology building

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

Hes an asshole its fine

#

Hollow Purple his ass

outer wave
#

Definitely hollow now

#

I liked his VA

#

Especially whenever he uses Rule Violation

sacred ginkgo
#

The fact Moses has hollow purple and hermit purple is funny

outer wave
#

Just a bit of trauma, big dog, no need to worry~

sacred ginkgo
#

Oh hey

#

The hardest encounter in the canto

#

I hope you have a good rodya and heath

outer wave
#

Haha, I got Middle Heath and borrowing a KoD Rodya

#

They do NOT synergize

sacred ginkgo
#

Doesn't matter

#

Magical girl does enough status for the both of you

#

You know how she works right?

outer wave
#

Yeah, guard first turn, she goes into negative mode, go to town from what I understand

sacred ginkgo
#

Use again for peak damage

#

Do know that you might corrode a bit to random sinking

outer wave
#

Guard twice, let her go off, Heath tanks (or attempts to anyway)

sacred ginkgo
#

They're perfect for eachother

outer wave
#

Perfect

#

It was that or Docent Rodya

sacred ginkgo
#

Kod is better

#

She's buttfuck busted and this encounter is evil

outer wave
#

I know about green coins

#

I dunno what they entail

#

I just know there's green coins

sacred ginkgo
#

They're very hungry red coins

#

They eat red coins

outer wave
#

So clash with normal coins?

sacred ginkgo
#

Yes

outer wave
#

I'll give it a whirl

sacred ginkgo
#

Its impossible to win against his green skills using red

outer wave
#

HE SAID THE THING!!!!

sacred ginkgo
#

Its the encounter name

#

He is saying the thing

#

Now you know why he wasn't in the pre employment rankings during 7.5

rancid cove
#

@storm jungle Why does he not do it?

sacred ginkgo
#

I also cannot wait to jump him with the thumblings

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

Weak

#

I retried that like 5 times with 2 teams

outer wave
#

Dont care, Im here for story telling

#

It wasnt awful until one particular attack that just wiped everyone suddenly

sacred ginkgo
#

I did wild hunt and kodia first cause sinking is blatantly optimal for his mechanics, but switched it to CCA and kodia so I was less glassy

outer wave
#

Yeah sinking is NECESSARY

sacred ginkgo
#

It does fixed damage

outer wave
sacred ginkgo
#

25% hp per coin if they aren't cracked

outer wave
#

It just AOE'd everyone and killed them instantly

sacred ginkgo
#

instant death

outer wave
#

Ahhh

#

Silly ass skill

sacred ginkgo
#

Verg absolutely HAS to win that clash

#

Its also a really tough fight mechanics wise

#

Managing his green skills to alleviate Hurting Swarm and keep your blood barrier shield while also trying not to fucking die

outer wave
#

I think the strat is to class with his guard to allow other characters to do full damage to him

#

And throw in as much sinking as possible

sacred ginkgo
#

Roach Emperor is an evil ass boss though

#

Verg would be fucked without the sinners there

outer wave
#

Yeah holy shit

sacred ginkgo
#

And this was him being suicidal

#

If it was smoke war Roach Emperor there would have been no chance

outer wave
#

He never metamorphized during Smoke War though, thankfully

#

Otherwise Im not sure if we'd have the same Gregor as in the story currently

#

We be balling 😎

sacred ginkgo
#

Yeah thats what a roach emperor damage graph looks like

#

Aight time for 9-49

Wow what a quick next chapter that was

I think the bulldog from exodus is so amazing looking

honestly way better than the Kalash 2013 from the first two

crystal forum
#

its basically a revised kalash 2013

languid meadow
#

yeah

crystal forum
#

since the original one is kinda lame if i'm being honest

languid meadow
#

slower firing AK with higher damage

#

the 2013 is just a weird looking P90

#

with shit damage

crystal forum
#

it just fires fast (in a game where ammo is hard to get)

#

vsv is way better

languid meadow
#

it's SO shit esp since you get it in the part where you mostly fight mutants

#

who are so tanky against rifle rounds

#

watching a watchman tank half a mag in the tower segment

crystal forum
#

the prologue is pretty hard in metro 2033 on ranger hardcore because the kalash 2013 sucks

spare osprey
#

As much as I love Metro, the good boy endings annoyed me to no end to get.

languid meadow
#

thankfully 2033's bad ending is the canon one so you can go buck wild

#

last light is a bit annoying yeah and exodus is pretty easy

#

just don't kill normal people and it's only really annoying in the taiga

Shanking the fuck out of those tunnel raiders in LL is too good.

Could someone share that admech hierachy chart

vagrant fox
#

must i

daring creek
#

Yes

vagrant fox
#

is it this one

daring creek
#

Yep

vagrant fox
#

I think Elite said it's either mildly wrong or out of date so keep an eye out for that

daring creek
#

Fair. I wanted to ask where that came from

#

Because judging from the drawn admech symbol. Its not official. Lmao

vagrant fox
#

I'm fairly sure it's fanmade

#

This is an official one

daring creek
#

Noice

vagrant fox
#

Yeah some feller named KameradArktis on r*ddit made the first one

storm jungle
#

Its fanmade yeah mostly because the official ones are like extremely general and dont really explain much.

#

but all of the stuff on it is from official lore

Can you see why its my favorite now

outer wave

Absolutely

#

What an absolutely tragic end

sacred ginkgo
#

9.5 only adds to ryoshu's development

outer wave
#

Maybe its me, but Im not sure if Ryoshu got like a shit load of development, but we'll see in 9.5 as you say

#

She came out of all that trauma with a "That was alright, NGL"

sacred ginkgo
#

Canto 9 contextualizes her entire character

#

Down to her literal first line in the entire game, when she greets you during the splash screens on the bus

#

"Shure's nice to meet ya"

outer wave
#

She says that?

sacred ginkgo
#

In Selva Obscura, yes

outer wave

Id have to replay that or watch the intro again

could just wear a glove that looks like a robot arm

Nah I mean my dad hypothetically doing admech cosplay

vagrant fox
#

tech adept in just 4/5 days

daring creek
#

He doesn't have forarms so he could just use hook hands...I wonder if he can still get some

#

I think his hands were even designed for using them

daring creek
#

Nah he just hasn't used them since he was a kid

#

I really want to know what his looked like at the time

#

Probably somewhere in storage

crystal forum
daring creek
#

Ah no he was just born that way

#

Funny you mention, people used to salute him thinking he was a vet lmfao

vagrant fox
#

leave britney alone is almost 20 years old

#

just fyi

daring creek
#

its funnyyyyyy

vagrant fox
#

Crazy that you can just be born without forearms, I'd be mad if that was me

daring creek
#

Its part of why he's kind of a conspiracy theorist lmfao.

#

He's a cool guy but he buys into non sense unfortunately

#

Lot smarter than my mom though

#

@sacred ginkgo I did Gregor without resetting!!! Still did jack shit for damage though

sacred ginkgo
#

Yeah he's fuckin rough

outer wave
#

He is

#

I dont like that he still rolls heads in spite of -45

sacred ginkgo
#

No support passives isn't helping

outer wave
#

Also the fact that your chances of clashing successfully will fluctuate between dominating to hopeless depending on the turn

#

Its weird

sacred ginkgo
#

Its cause his panic type gives 8 power down

outer wave
#

I dont recall anyone really panicking except at one point

sacred ginkgo
#

Being at -45 is panic

outer wave
#

Aside from KoD, Heath wasnt panicking

sacred ginkgo
#

Hes panicking like every third turn

outer wave
#

Ahh

#

Oh wait, he panics everyone including himself?

sacred ginkgo
#

No just him

outer wave
#

Huh

sacred ginkgo
#

The fight revolves around getting Greg to -45 for the power and clash power down on his panic type

#

Its why kodia is so good

#

Hitting that 13/7 sinking on a good tear and pierce

#

I wonder how the thumblings will perform when yhey drop

#

Probably well cause of Scorch

outer wave
#

Yeah they'll be fine Im sure

sacred ginkgo
#

No i mean for Greg specifically

#

Cause it'll be heath and rodya for the thumblings

outer wave
#

Oh I see I see

#

Well Greg has that passive where he negates status effects

sacred ginkgo
#

I don't remember if it actually clears them though

#

I could probably check

#

Ok yeah nvm it clears them

#

Cause i was gonna say repeated scorch hits would rip him a new asshole but the window for stacking it is short

outer wave
#

Yeah it wouldnt be alot of time before you got your chances of clashing shortened

sacred ginkgo
#

Still gonna try it

idk why GW had to bother giving the studs lore as if they're not obviously just decorative on your minis

I think that was exclusively used for Thunder Warriors

it can be used by space marines

Also honestly at that point. You might as well just wear Ceramite.

we'll probably never see 1 on tabletop in HH but it was around

I like power armor

Big men wearing big metal suits

first experience with expeditions: one party member failed to load in, performance was bad, half the party went down and one guy just sorta milled around on his own on the other side of the map rather than help rescue, then just as everyone was about to get downed the match got cancelled by an error

heady rivet
#

Only a million more scrap to go!

urban spire
#

i'm actually kinda mad they spent time working on this game mode

heady rivet
#

Well dont worry you arent burdened with rewards for all the time it takes

flat nimbus
#

I like it, but it’s frustratingly barebones

#

nice to have different engagement zones and styles! wish there was a bit more meat to it all

urban spire
#

i don't know if i'd like it, it fucking crashed

#

like my client didn't crash, the ROUND errored out

flat nimbus
#

Feels like that’s happening more in general lately

urban spire
#

never had it happen in the real game

flat nimbus
#

I had one or two matches get borked lately, though that’s just my anecdotal experience

urban spire
#

i was thinking you know, those cosmetics look kinda cool, maybe i'll check it out

#

nope, immediately punished for stepping outside my comfort zone

flat nimbus
#

Will say, I’ve not bothered with it above Malice besides to get the Damnation final extract penance

#

It feels like a mode that could have used just a little longer in the oven

#

Which isn’t the worst thing if they plan to revisit or update it but

urban spire
#

i mean i hope they sort it out cause right now it's just wasted dev time

flat nimbus
#

well, it’s not like Mortis has seen much action

urban spire
#

mortis is kinda fun, no idea why i'd play it though

celest dome
#

Mortis doesn't need much/frequent updates, it is fine as it currently is for the most part

urban spire
#

cause it's not more fun than just playing reglear missions

#

and one of those modes has a longer wait time than the other

flat nimbus
#

My biggest hope is Expeditions is intended as a framework for further additions, like having different destinations, but the Tech-Remnant and Sanctuaries context does limit things

urban spire
#

going other places is cool, but that could also just be regular missions

flat nimbus
#

Yeaaaaaa

#

Just feels like DT is struggling to find its identity there

urban spire
#

it has an identity! why is it looking for a new one?

flat nimbus
#

when the obvious answer feels like “just make more missions!”

urban spire
#

well, they can try new shit if they want, it's their game

#

but this one didn't pan out

flat nimbus
#

It’s like they’re worried people are bored with the standard mission format, or at least don’t feel confident in making new ones that won’t just feel recycled

#

idk

#

krumpin’s still fun

#

just mystifying the seeming higher-level planning

urban spire
#

which is bizarre cause folks are still loving darktide after a lot of time with not a lot of new missions

celest dome
#

Expe did answer 2 quite common requests from the community

urban spire
#

feel like the main thing people want is new stuff for their characters

#

but as i understand it GW is responsible for crippling development on that frontier

celest dome
#

I doubt that Expe and Mortis can be reasons that we haven't seen new stuff on our characters

#

As Maps devs aren't the same people as the class and weapon devs

urban spire
#

yeah i'm not saying that

celest cedar
urban spire
#

they gambled on other game modes, i'd be a hypocrite if i complained about that

#

i like to see devs try shit out

#

but when i compared the slow rate of new character and weapon development in darktide to other games with similarly structured dev studios i was told the reason darktide is so slow is because GW has to sign off on EVERYTHING

surreal nest
steel ingot
#

i really liked expeditions

#

am i the only one

#

i think there is a depth in how to succeed you have to engage with combat much differently, no longer can you hold in place and kill everything before moving on, you have to SCHMOVE you gotta GO

celest dome
steel ingot
#

and i really like that, its created a lotta unique and fun experiences through that pressure

#

different kind of pressure from just hardcore maelstroms and stuff

#

i think also as someone who's been playing tide since vt1

#

ive sorta fell in with fatshark to a point that i just trust the process

#

and time and time again they proved that to be a winning standpoint

#

vt2 fell down on its ass more than once and got back to being more fun than it was before, and need we remind ourselves of the state this game was in year 1

celest dome
#

Eh, I've been there since the early VT2, and while there are a lot of issues that I consider part of the package, they aren't really things meant to be ignored

steel ingot
#

and also ESPECIALLY in this day and age

#

people are never fucking happy with anything

#

like its a cataclysmic level of being unhappy with everything

#

so honestly i just trust that the game will add things and i will enjoy it

#

even at its worst i liked darktide

urban spire
#

i started with vt1, i was okay with the slow release stuff back then for a couple reasons

#

mainly the fact that vt2 came out like 3 years later and had a LOT of new shit

#

including: check the pfp

steel ingot
#

shoutouts vt2 sienna

#

that class is the best it ever wase even if pyromancer people wanna say its better

celest dome
#

The thing about FS, is that at least they're pushing their specialized boundary, rather than releasing the same slops years after years

steel ingot
#

unchained was the BEST class for her

urban spire
#

it's so cool

steel ingot
#

like i think gameplay it was the best too, the high risk reward of staying at high heat, the fact its tailored to the best thing in vt smacking things

#

ugh so fun

urban spire
#

i didn't really grow into the pfp though

#

i bitch a lot

#

i do NOT embody the red wind

#

i don't embody sienna though lmao

steel ingot
#

yeah you're not an over 50 baddie

urban spire
#

give it a little while okay?

#

no need to rush these things

#

i think they aughta put the gun addons mod in the base game though

#

that thing slaps

steel ingot
#

i mean it was intended in the original release

#

we all know this as much as hedge would of said otherwise

urban spire
#

yeah and it sucks that it's not there

#

i mean, i don't think they should put picatinny rails on bolters or whatever

steel ingot
#

i think the mark system we have right now is like fine

urban spire
#

but putting LITERALLY ANY optic on a helbore would be nice

dapper gyro
#

It is still the oddest QOL change for this game ever.

celest dome
#

Tbh, I do consider optics to be part of the balance of a weapon

dapper gyro
#

There are tons of guns that they could release, but some weapons classes are so obsolete that they won't do.

#

This is a PvE game, people play to have fun, not exactly balance.

rocky gale
#

There's a bunch of the guns I just won't use because I hate the sights on them

dapper gyro
#

Something something power fantasy.

steel ingot
#

the only gun i think i cannot use because of the ergenomics on it is the hellbore

#

those sights are abysmal

urban spire
#

it's not great

dapper gyro
#

Recon Las sight is also trash, though it is not a precision weapon.

urban spire
#

you can just hipfire that guy

steel ingot
#

every other gun in the game has seen extensive use from me

#

but also im a big proponent of using the worst weapons to their maximum capability

dapper gyro
#

The spread from the hip is a little bit much.

steel ingot
#

i think recon las gun sights are fine, you gotta feel it out a little though

#

the aiming is a little part praying

flat nimbus
#

I just love countersniping with nothing but a bolt pistol’s irons

#

totally don’t wish I could slap a red dot on it or anything

urban spire
#

bolt pistol is quite capable

flat nimbus
#

it is, I just am a spoiled PD2 heister and want ACOGs on my revolvers

urban spire
#

that's so ugly

rocky gale
#

You don't need to aim with the Bolt Pistol, you simply point it in the direction of the enemy and hope that the God Emperor guides the shot into the heretics skull.

heady rivet
#

Yo who else remembers reload speed while sliding perk? alwayrember

urban spire
#

not even a little bit

dapper gyro
#

ACOG on a revolver is just so unrealistic for me, not because you can't put one on in real life, but the eye relief is so close to the eye (like 2-3cm), that if you aim like that in real life, you might have an empty eye socket after.

#

I know some people love empty eye socket, but not me.

urban spire
#

huh?

dapper gyro
#

heh?

urban spire
#

what did he mean by that?

steel ingot
#

i think putting a buncha gangley shit on the revolver on payday 2 is like

flat nimbus
steel ingot
#

hilarious

#

part of payday 2 is making the ugliest gun ever possibly imaginable

#

and the killing 4 paydayillion police officers in a bank heist with it

flat nimbus
#

hey, the elemental plane of cops ain’t gonna empty itself

#

and yeah, I miss my absolutely atrocious looking micro uzis

urban spire

steel ingot
#

no

flat nimbus
#

they did, but it’s been so middlingly received that PD2 is getting new content

steel ingot
#

MIDDLING ?

dapper gyro

I understand your pain.

rocky gale
#

Yea, middle of the shitpipe

flat nimbus
#

it hasn’t died yet, that’s something

#

but, yeah, it had about as good a launch as Darktide

Unfortunately, Darktide is still kind of unique for its 40K tide.

Do Tech-Priests and Skitarii ever suffer from any negative effects due to their cybernetics or are they fine? (Excluding that one literal nuclear reactor backpack that some Skitarii get for being good).

celest dome
#

Do you mean like Cyberpunk's Cyberpsychosis ?

#

Not really

storm jungle
#

they do actually suffer from phantom pain in some aspects

#

and otherwise it depends from character to character, most techpriests are still human so some might have regrets from replacing themselves so much here and there. We got a character in cawl's book whos a techpriest but is barely augmented because she just doesnt enjoy the cybernetics much (sticking to cyberpunk-ish look where its mostly hidden under her skin) and this has her jduged heavily by her techpriest allies back on Mars before she was assigned to cawl

Wasn't there a Sub-Cult that specialised in heavy augment that weren't visible, think for diplomacy or covert operation

There's a diplomat type in some grey knights book who does that

There are also the Sisters of Cydonia.

raven stone
#

And whilst we are at it, one of the Dark Heresy tabletop supplements outright has a class of Techpriest that deliberately voluntarily look human

#

to act as intermediaries for negotiations (optimized for best outcome with Imperial organisation was their rationale)

storm jungle
#

Yea these techpriests are just not show much in art because its not really as "iconic"

raven stone
#

Less tech-priesty but more Ad Mech in general, they also wilingly use Ad Mech agents who look human but have a fuck ton of bionics inside for acts of intra-Imperium sabotage whenever they feel they need to steal info :p

#

which can be suprisingly often,

vagrant fox
#

i should play mgs 3 remake I haven't even touched it yet I'm such a fool

raven stone
#

or necessary if non-Ad Mech organisations know of a STC

vagrant fox
#

These types exist yeah, you just don't see them as often

#

they're also hugeass dorks

#

Actually I think the one I'm thinking about in the grey knights book was very borged up it was just made to look very human

#

Deimos isn't very respectable anyways

vagrant fox
#

Take the shots for me, name thief

raven stone
#

@storm jungle and since we are reading the same novel - one of the Hive characters just outright has so much artificial stuff in him that even though he is definitely not Ad Mech or has visible bionics, he can outright be considered a built post human anyways (Osgood)

Adrathic weapons I think yes but unlike some other weapons that were banned for being too destructive it's because they can't produce any more of them so only SoS and Stodes get them iirc

pretty sure any DAOT weapon the Dark Angels have were "banned" by the emperor and the imperium for being too destructive, it's just for everyone else and not the DA
