being able to build into a tank does sound like it may align with my interests

harsh sandal
#

Time to bring back Toiko the Artefact hater

sick yoke
#

You can’t

steel mauve
#

morning stalkers

harsh sandal
sick yoke
#

Still capped

harsh sandal
#

I mean yeah but armors will have higher BR class

sick yoke
#

Yeah

#

They’re also going to be less protective

harsh sandal
#

Well less BR% but that's not what I'm here for

sick yoke
#

Not even that

harsh sandal
#

Just tell him to nerf anomaly damage and we will be fine

sick yoke
#

Just the fact that no pen damage reduction is going to be just BR class (+ boosters)

#

Instead of the formula we have right now

#

Aka less protection

harsh sandal
#

I mean yeah

#

But again it's convenient for non artefact users

sick yoke
#

Not really

wet grotto
#

Speaking of is there an atrefact that heals limbs

sick yoke
#

I’m pretty sure most of the BR increases are within “just black plate” ranges anyway

harsh sandal
#

Honestly it wont be that bad if we have +10 for most suit

sick yoke
#

Grok posted the planned numbers in this channel already

harsh sandal
#

Wha...

sick yoke
#

So search feature it I guess

#

I know nosorog is going from 62 to 68

#

Aka black plate range

harsh sandal
#

Huh

#

Protoexo will have 58?

white wedge
#

what a name

#

made me think of discord chat

#

I've got a Max Head hanging around the church for me

#

Only skat proto

#

Radsuit then

wet grotto
#

Amuses me every time I walk past

sick yoke
#

Normal protos are 32 BR

harsh sandal
#

Bruh proto is freakin trash now

sick yoke
#

Isn’t that basically how it is right now lol

steel mauve
#

always has been

sick yoke
#

In terms of BR at least

steel mauve
#

fucking hate that cant press where i use to for emotes bow its voice message

sick yoke
#

Lol protos have 105% ms

harsh sandal
#

Yeah

#

While radsuits are still 90%

harsh sandal

#

Lmao look how sad duty beril and ibaz are

#

42 and 36

#

36???

#

Are you serious?

#

36 brc with only 2-3 slots

#

Christ

wet grotto
harsh sandal
#

@sick yoke my apology

#

After reading the sheet

#

We are done for

mental furnace
warm verge
#

SHAT is no more

celest sparrow
#

There will be Faction bonuses to different resistances

#

So take for example the Mercenary IBAz might have higher BRC compared to other Factions and whatever

#

BR Class is going to be a lot more reliable to use when it comes to Heavy Armor
Some Outfits and Factions are going to be a lot more specialized around it, which increases the AP threshold you'll be able to withstand when going against the Monolith / Sin / UNISG Factions without the need of having to focus on Artifacts (Artifacts will still be required to increase the Res Cap)
I do imagine these outfits having less Belt Slots compared to "weaker" alternatives, with higher Base Resistances as these require a lot less setup , because you want Artifacts to still be the End Game focus and what makes the player stronger
So imagine an Exosuit with 4 Belt Slots being able to reach BR Res Cap with the use of BRC + BR% Focused Artifacts that increase BR% Cap, but you'll be missing out on additional benefits or being able to focus on other resistances

normal island
#

"Why did that merc tank a .338 straight to the forehead"

"Mercs are just built different"

celest sparrow
#

I find it neat that UNISG has the highest BRC bonus increase, when they have the highest AP reduction against the player

celest sparrow
warm verge
#

so essentially

#

we won't be able to shred a isg noso user with AP

celest sparrow
#

?

#

I mean it's already the case

warm verge
#

kinda isn't but ok

celest sparrow
#

UNISG have a 30% AP Reduction

#

and a 35% Damage Reduction

warm verge
#

i don't see it when i fight against em but ok

celest sparrow
#

but ok

#

thumbsUp2x Yeah just use AP

warm verge
#

true

#

if you wanna be extra petty

#

get a gun with a grenade launcher

humble shoal
#

try to shoot mono exo with 12.7 or 7,62 ap and compare to unisg

warm verge
#

"try to shoot mono exo!!!"

#

im not talking about the regular exoskeletons.

#

but okay.

wet grotto
#

the mod is fair and balanced

image.png
warm verge
#

yes exactly

harsh sandal
#

But it's still a joke with how the new damage number works

celest sparrow
#

Not really

#

It's a lot more reliable than how it is right now

harsh sandal
#

Unless it increases A LOT of BRC

novel junco
#

I have not played GAMMA in a long time, do the stats show more accurate values like how it is in their files?

harsh sandal
#

No

#

Kinda

humble shoal
celest sparrow
humble shoal
#

the point is , unisg and sin are the only factions you dont oneshot in a head with a simular armor to any other faction

#

thats pretty easy to notice it this way

harsh sandal
#

So the upgraded steel plate is actually useful now

celest sparrow
#

Like not ALL Heavy Armor will be viable for BRC Builds but it will be great for those who don't want to focus a lot on Artifacts

novel junco
#

What mods add shield abilities for Sin anyway?

celest sparrow
harsh sandal
#

Yeah that's why I like it

#

Especially for an artefact hater like me

#

But I still want more BRC for most suits

celest sparrow
#

Yeah I'm pretty glad that BRC might actually become relevant in the End Game

harsh sandal
celest sparrow
#

and will make Nosorog armor actually appealing to use

harsh sandal
#

Wait

#

Will BRC has cap?

celest sparrow
#

Yeah, wonder if it will be adjusted

#

But you could just use low% High Tier Artifacts solely for the BR% increase

tropic grove
harsh sandal
#

Well it's not like we can reach 100 BR anyway

celest sparrow
tropic grove
#

Oh

#

Bruh.

harsh sandal
#

or can't we

celest sparrow
#

Well let me theorize

cobalt glade
#

CoD warzone ahh idea to stack 3 plates on top of each other KekSkew

humble shoal
#

nosorog with a lvl 4 plate now have 68 br

celest sparrow
ashen plover
celest sparrow
#

I have to check if they are actually using AP on 12.7 cause other Factions use FMJ despite being on Master / Legend (AP use range)

humble shoal
harsh sandal
#

68 nosorog + 12 best place + let say chimera hide give 10
A solid 90% damage reduction
+15% from boosters
105%

ashen plover
#

There is also lapua

harsh sandal
humble shoal
#

ye , lapua have 180 or smth

#

buy thats kind of the point

#

also gauss rifle have 100 triilion ap or smth

#

ive never been hit by one of those guns tho

#

npcs suck with snipers

wet grotto
#

You say this but I just got my bell ring twice by some fucking renegade with an svd

harsh sandal
celest sparrow
#

Fuck I don't remember which Factions have Exosuits clueless

harsh sandal
#

All of them I think?

#

Except nerds

celest sparrow
#

UNISG and Sin have Exosuits?

harsh sandal
celest sparrow
#

Damn okay shawty

harsh sandal
#

UNISG Exosuit is the best exosuit literally

#

94% speed instead of 90

harsh sandal
#

I dont think I've seen one before

humble shoal
harsh sandal
#

Could be, but I remember they do

humble shoal
#

it could exist as a model , but not as a loot accessible to a player

#

like i personally never seen it

novel junco
#

Every faction has an exo, dont remember if GAMMA uses it for all of them

valid loom
celest sparrow
#

Yeah Sin doesn't have an Exosuit

harsh sandal
#

F

celest sparrow
#

Sin have fuckall for Heavy Armor

harsh sandal
#

Probably mistake it with sin exoskeleton I guess

humble shoal
warm verge
#

now i wonder how the changes will affect the skat 9 exos

humble shoal
#

like sin/bandit nosorog for example , or exoskats

warm verge
#

err

#

sin doesn't have a nosorog 💔

harsh sandal
humble shoal
#

the thing that is just super rare

harsh sandal
humble shoal
#

i probably seen it twice for all playthroughs

celest sparrow
#

Like lets take an Exosuit, which is what you would want for a BRC Build with a Base of 58 BRC and 2 Belt Slot
We can go for the UNISG Exosuit for a +20% BRC, which is 69 BRC ( kek1 )
That lands up comfortably at 7.62x51 AP protection, albeit limited with 2 Belt Slots (2 - 4 according to the sheet?)
You could do a single Full Empty for a BR% 75% Cap, and use the other slot for HP Restoration or whatever, as you no longer have to worry about Bleed Control as Bleed is dictated if the shot penetrates the armor

warm verge
#

why are we

#

essentially going full tarkov with how materials work atp

celest sparrow
#

It's already Tarkov with how the Ballistics and BHS work

warm verge
#

nononono we're adding armor materials into the mix

celest sparrow
#

More Tarkov slop please

celest sparrow
#

Not actual materials but just a way to tell what Armor does what and whatever

harsh sandal
celest sparrow
harsh sandal
#

They should not

#

Let my no artefact build alone!

celest sparrow
#

Honestly yeah, but you could do a low% Artifact just for the Res Cap increase while ignoring the negatives

#

and this is assuming all Exosuits will have 2 Belt Slots

#

UNISG Nosorog having 81 BRC kekpat

harsh sandal
celest sparrow
#

Kinda brings the same issue of having to build up BR% with Artifacts as that's the only way to get the BR% Cap increased

harsh sandal
#

Ngl if nosorog had that much BRC, no one would bother using artefacts

celest sparrow
#

WELL

#

I wanted to say why have to use Artifacts with what is essentially THE end game armor, but I guess it makes some sense having to use Artifacts to build up the BR% Cap so they still have some weight

harsh sandal
#

So yeah, we either have not so high BRC or BRC cap

#

or both

celest sparrow
#

Well the increase is nice anyway, not having to worry about Bleed without the use of Artifacts is nice

warm verge
#

this armor rebalance

#

will ruin the lives of hybrid users

#

and ace suit users

#

actually do i even

#

need the raptr if i have artigrok

mighty viper
#

And yeah BRC defense is capped

mighty viper
# warm verge will ruin the lives of hybrid users

Not really, it's still OP. And as I work towards the new story, elemental resistances will become extremely important when some bosses start spawning fields of electros around you while you have an exo with 2% electrical res.

Sphere M12

mighty viper
#

I want to promote helmet BRC at the cost of rad res.

And most heavy BRC armors will have shit rad res.

That will push the player to invest in rad res belt items or in drugs to be 24/7 with rad protectants or chain smoking

harsh sandal
#

Me drugs drugs drugs

mighty viper
#

Indeed, but it creates other problems: need more food, more drinks, more meds crafting, precluding other meds crafting, investing money in drugs, etc

#

So all in all, a different play style than artefacts heavy builds

#

That's what I'm aiming for: different play styles 😉

harsh sandal
#

So no problemo

mighty viper
#

meanwhile I build BR% with artefacts suits to not care about damage and rads

#

but yeah BRC has the advantage of avoiding bleeds

harsh sandal
#

And dont have to deal with artefact rng

mighty viper
#

but it's the fun part imo

#

and it prints money

#

also, patch quests give artefacts for free

harsh sandal
#

Yes, and better than using artefact detectors

harsh sandal
#

@mighty viper does cap only affect BRC's damage reduction? We can still tank bullet's pen up to whatever BRC we have right?

heavy cradle

wanna ask what does even repair from rogue does?

#

that i know but i was thinking that his system is separate one

@old snow
To bring your mod list, settings and keybinds back to default, inverting any changes made by you:

  1. Open the G.A.M.M.A. Launcher with admin rights
  2. Uncheck every box EXCEPT Delete Reshade DLLs
  3. Click on Install / Update G.A.M.M.A

Note: If you wish to keep your keybinds and graphical settings, go to Anomaly\appdata and backup user.ltx.

Hey Guys. How bad do you think is spawning in with an AK-74 and with 4 mags of HP ammo is right off the bat as a loner in a leather jacket?

Otherwise you're allowed just the leather jacket or no armor, and the meds

#

And food of course

Like I said, it's RNG dependent. If you spawned in with one in full working order that's different than getting a lucky find off some dead Dutyer

Yeah no. Adv. tools are easy to get really. 51% in TC and Duty in Rostok usually has a few quests there

#

Just gotta know where to look I suppose

last mesa

#

That's still time and effort, by that logic spawning with full gear is no different cuz "you get it eventually"

last mesa
#

I rather meant that it's pretty easy to fix up an AK even early game

#

But I do get your point

oblique reef
#

I just personally enjoy the thrill of starting off with nothing and working hard to get a rifle working. That's why I enjoy the scavenging and crafting parts of the modpack despite being apprehensive at first

last mesa
#

Yeah. They're an eyesore at the start but once you get to midgame you start to appreciate being able to fix your own shit and keep the money for AP ammo

#

Especially if you're an avid artifact hunter and will also need a lotta money for the melter, containers (Not sure if still relevant or if they got removed) and electronic stuff for crafting of better ones instead of selling a kidney for one

speaking of artefacts is there a setting I can change to make them worth selling

yeah I'm gonna be honest when I joined I said "I ain't reading all that shit"

I feel like they should make the rules more interesting to begin with, I lost focus 1/4 thru the first time I read them. But just to be cleared, I have read them all now.

if this were some dinky like, 200 person server the rules could bend a little

no, it was GAMMA specific tutorial

you can either blindly believe

or see for yourself

leave the matrix now

or keep being a sheep

idle valve
#

I am just giving you information I have, when I asked YOU why use AVX, you didnt give any reason so obviously you dont know any better

burnt swallow
#

nah

#

i didnt give you an answer as to if you should use it

#

cause every single part in both of our pcs is different

#

so i have no way of knowing

#

for me its +3 fps

idle valve
#

if AVX is objectively better, why wouldn't I want to use it???

burnt swallow
#

cause its not

#

its system specific

idle valve

okay well I will test

did i really have to explain that

..still think mercs should be hostile with clear sky.
Stupid loner+

#

...I mean come to think of it why are they neutral with duty, this is probably explained in a game I haven't played

warm verge
#

mercs aren't neutral with doody

wet grotto
#

Clear sky

clear sky is clear sky

we don't question them

wet grotto

Yeah

#

Seems to be the general idea

humble shoal
feral panther
warm verge
wet grotto
feral panther
warm verge
#

i mean the only reason why

#

mercs are neutral with clear sky

#

is cause they're neutral with them in stalker: clear sky, i don't know man..

#

there was this dude called scar

#

and he was a mercenary

feral panther
#

scar was a "merc" but he fought mercs

wet grotto
#

Idk I wish there was a way to fit more nuance into the faction relations

feral panther
#

he was basically a loner but with "higher prof standards"

pulsar linden
ashen plover
feral panther
pulsar linden

#

Which makes sense
They seem to be less an actual faction and more just different groups on a mission
sorta like mercenaries

wet grotto
#

Yeah, which would be nice if that could be reflected too

celest sparrow
#

You really can't

#

In a gameplay standpoint anyway with how Anomaly establishes Factions and Relations

wet grotto
#

I know

#

It'd just be nice and cool

ashen plover
#

I would assume they would just be spread among other factions

wet grotto
#

Mercs could be 3 separate factions easily

feral warren
sinful osprey
pulsar linden
warm verge
#

freedom should have ALL OF ROSTOK

sinful osprey
# feral panther scar was a "merc" but he fought mercs

By definition everyone in the zone who takes on work that requires they be armed is a merc

But "mercs" the faction is just shadowy nebulous western interests made into bad guys. Anomaly had to make them more cohesive which implies they're some kind of pmc or coalition of pmcs

warm verge
#

anomaly's isg kinda stinks

#

researchers where

#

all i see are ripoff merc

#

s

#

not actual western researchers

feral panther
celest sparrow
#

Mercenary is barely implied to be western operators
I honestly see them as experienced Stalkers who take the work as contractors for easier access to better paying tasks

#

Same as Ecologists asking Loners or even Mercenaries to work for them temporarily

pulsar linden
#

good that your headcannon can comply with totally made up arbitrary faction mechanics made up for anomalykekleo2

celest sparrow
#

Or the Military contracting Stalkers

pulsar linden
#

jokes aside the whole concept is stupid to discuss, half the factions are only factions for gameplay reasons

sinful osprey
feral panther
celest sparrow
#

Yeah they are cut content without much to get out of

pulsar linden
feral panther
#

maybe not

pulsar linden
sinful osprey
#

At least that some of their contracts are coming from western interests

celest sparrow
#

Outside of Anomaly, they are seen using the AKM or LR300 ( ? (it was the TRs))

warm verge
#

the LR300... is an american gun.,.,.,.,,.,.,.,.,.,

celest sparrow
#

So the AK is also american? Okay

warm verge
#

no

#

??

#

it's russian

#

obviously

sinful osprey
#

It's been a minute since I've played clear sku and soc, but most of them have ARs and l85s which I'm not going to pretend I remember the ign

warm verge
#

LR300s and whatever the L85 is called in STALKER

celest sparrow
#

Just saying that the "NATO" and "WP" affiliations with weapons are stupid

warm verge
#

i mean..

sinful osprey
#

It shouldn't be a stretch that obviously loads of Soviet equipment would have already been in the zone, then bolstered by corruption and the usual European Yugo black market
Select fire western assault rifles aren't going to be anywhere near as common

Though it's still just implication not fact

#

Meaning someone from outside is supplying them outside of the normal means someone would get an assault rifle in a warzone

normal island
#

Flash news, Monolith is all belgians and germans becauase they have F2000s and G36s

#

This is your brain on "muh immershun realismo" brainrot

sinful osprey
#

Monolith is kind of an anomaly in more ways than one tbf

normal island
#

The guns are not a tell to where a faction are from

celest sparrow
#

They're more of a powerscale

normal island
#

In the OT bandits use MP5s, Freedom use L85s, Monolith use a mix of western ARs and soviet oddball guns like the AN94 and SVUs

#

None of those are implied to be "western"

#

Leave your irl supply line stuff at the door pls

sinful osprey
#

Look man
If you give me a world based on ours with a diverging timeline, I'm going to use my own knowledge of the world prior to that to make connections

normal island
#

That's lame

sinful osprey
#

Though I think anon has a point with the powerscale

normal island
#

It's a videogame

#

It's not that deep

#

The guns that are in the OG games are there because the devs thought they were cool

#

That's literally it

#

There's no logic or reason behind it

celest sparrow
#

They really wanted the F2000 to be in it

normal island
#

And they doubled down in S2 by adding shit like the Carmel and the Vector

#

Is Israel arming mercs in the zone by giving them Carmels in S2?

#

Heavy implications

#

Had to kill mangun

#

iirc the F2000 was the literal first gun the first SoC alphas, because it was an OL remnant

celest sparrow
sinful osprey
#

In the absence of another explanation, I'm going to fill in the blanks
At no point am I asserting that it's fact, just an implication, which is an entirely different thing

normal island
#

It's not an implication

#

At no point in any of the games it's implied that any faction that uses """""""western""""""" guns is western in origin or members

#

Is Han Solo from Star Wars part of the SS because his blaster is based on a Mauser C96?

Add F2000! Add F2000! We want F2000!
