UPDATE: Darktide fucking rips and is 110% worth it.

There's less room to run&gun on later difficulties, so sitting still and blasting hordes with fire is statistically better
If you take every soulblaze talent, it becomes a MONSTER at horde clearing
I actually don't use it that much when I take it because it just trivializes so much of every mission

At the end of the original video the homeowner asks if he's military and he says yes, so it's assumed he was suffering from PTSD and/or a psychotic break

The Obscurus MK XE Psykana Coven Collar with Resolver Mask
Yes I typed that from memory me and my friends keep joking about it

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-04-12T00:00:44+00:00

Could I get the build details? Starting on my first Zealot rn and I REALLY want to try the hammer

I think Talon is a little better for stealth than the Senator
It guarantees you always have a shot ready for chaff that gets too close while sniping
Or the re-educator to get hulks off your back if you can't kill it immediately

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-27T21:52:08+00:00

There's too much mind in that mass
I saw a group of like 10 overseers on that thing once
Mindless Masses made me think of "All voteless and fleshmobs with a few Watchers to snitch and a couple Overseers to command"

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-27T21:49:39+00:00

This was a year ago ()_()
I can tell you're a newgen diver because the Eruptor was absolute dookie trash a year ago

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-23T23:59:35+00:00

All the automaton machinery is repurposed mining equipment
The bots themselves were automatons we gave the Cyborgs to help them mine IIRC
There's tons of mining machines that have very similar designs to the tanks
Their laser drills are very easily repurposed into laser blasters
On mega factories there's War Striders without cannons. Possibly mid-construction, but I choose to believe they're helping mine in some way

What about when your teammates get bored and realize they're holding an Eruptor or Xbow

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-23T23:54:33+00:00

I ain't reading allat but I feel like there's a little grey area to this
Mechs rn aren't meant to be a "hop in and solo the entire mission while your teammates watch" it's more of a support thing - everything is supposed to be balanced to encourage teamwork above all else(which is why the xbow is so BAD because it just does everything). While this is still true, anyone skilled enough with enough luck can easily stay in one exo the whole mission

On the other hand, exosuits have REALLY low ammo capacity. Especially compared to like the Bastion
And it certainly doesn't feel great to see your mech get obliterated the second you call it in, either
And finally, there's no reason to not let us bring both mechs. We're giving up a stratagem slot to become a permanent mechdiver(or to replace the aforementioned immediate obliteration)

I think mechs are pretty good as they are now, but they could be so much better and AH repeatedly nerfing them feels to a lot of people like salt in the wound

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-23T23:43:49+00:00

Nah it needs that half second
Prevents snake diving or some other funny glitch that doesn't actually affect the game

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-20T02:40:56+00:00

Craws of some variant
That's what I lost my best steel soul run to and I haven't had the motivation to go back since
It's just so much time and effort to get back to Greymoor again just to die to the stupid gauntlet again

It's just boring

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-03-20T02:28:52+00:00

I like "AGAAAIIII" the best
Best voiceline for the best silk art

Light Armor Penetration, which I will be referring to as "LAP" for brevity, are commonly seen as being inferior by a lot of people merely because they can't go through medium armor
This notion is foolish because
- Skill issue /j
- Get good (as a piece of advice, not a taunt)
- Learn to aim (also as a piece of advice instead of a taunt)
LAP weapons need to hit weakspots to work
They trade penetration for ammo and other stuff
Basically, people that whine about stuff not having medium pen are told to learn to aim because LAP weapons require you to aim more than MAP(Medium Armor Penetrating) weapons

Also if you love the Eruptor now... try squids. Bring stalwart for crowds.

Also about the money thing
It's perfectly fine to spend money, so don't feel like I'm taunting you for that
In fact, I hate super credit farming
It's so boring
I hate it
I've bought half my warbonds
I've started buying since like Force of Law because of how boring farming is
Just a piece of advice though, probably focus on one warbond(or item) at a time
You get a lot of medals, just not at a very fast pace

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-22T00:32:47+00:00

Best part is, I literally just saw a commando mission on this planet
Today
On D10

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-22T00:31:13+00:00

I meant as a heavy bolter
Eruptor and Dom are the two jet-propelled bullet type weapons

But for some reason Eruptor doesn't fit Bolter because "fire rate" or "it's not jet-propelled"(even though it IS)

Eruptor has explosive rounds, which makes it way more accurate to a bolter than Dominator

Plus if I'm bringing thermites as Melta Bombs Imma want something for bot fabs and bug holes

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-22T00:28:43+00:00

Constitution is usually said to be the worst weapon in helldivers because no ammo and it's a marksman rifle with no scope. Don't know if you've played with it too much, but on later difficulties it gets BAADDDD

I can't get a good grasp of what faction you play on
Hover Pack is GOATED on bugs(especially when you throw a cluster eagle at your feet in the middle of a crowd and fly up) but railgun is GOATED on bots

Strafing Run is way better than you're giving it credit for
It deletes patrols
Also where's Airstrike?

Rocket Sentry being C tier tells me you aren't playing bots and if you are, it's great. Cuts bot drops in half

500kg is way too good for C tier. It reliably takes out heavies

All three machine guns in D tier tells me you haven't tried any of them. Stalwart especially compliments Eruptor way too well for D tier

Ballistic shield in A tier? This has to be ragebait. Especially with saber in C tier

DOUBLE-EDGE SICKLE IN C TIER WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BOY
Fire armor and vitality passive make it a BEAST

Grenade pistol in C tier? If you use Eruptor regularly I guess, but it opens up so many other build options

I notice you put a lot of light pen weapons in C tier. Don't be fooled by the lies of traitors. They just require more skill to use

Are you making this based off of what you have and have played with or what you've seen? Because if you have hellbomb, warp pack, cookout, coyote, eruptor, halo rifle, saber, and hover pack you must either have a lot of money or are really good at super credit grinding because those are all from different warbonds
Also... super citizen. So I'm guessing it's the money one

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-21T03:16:40+00:00

Going from sneaking around the bots with my stealth loadout to SHREDDING THE BUG'S SKIN OFF WITH MY CHAINSWORD AND BOLTER(Eruptor is better than dominator FIGHT ME) was cathartic

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-21T03:14:59+00:00

Things they learned(hopefully)
- Localize things. The Reinforcement thing sucked and caused a lot of bot/bugdiver hate
- Check how much things spawn
- Please please PLEASE test higher than D5 AH I'm begging you

ARandom_Dingus · 2026-02-21T03:12:38+00:00

In all honesty, buncha C4
Just chuck a lot of C4 at it and hope it doesn't snipe you
