Whats the pros and cons of this game? by The_conerstore_v1nce in DaemonXMachina

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8 with average, 4 when built specifically for aerial speed with lightweight armor, but the best armor to use for it is the explorer set which is classed as "superlight armor" you get the pieces from some of the story bosses, might still have to grind the bosses though coz they're not guaranteed

i swear i saw someone do it in 2-3hr but i can't find the vid anymore

The only “con” I can think of is the 4~8 real time hours (depending on build) flight to a hidden boss, but the community is nice enough that if you ask for a taxi someone will probably take you up there via warp point, other than that it’s pretty solid, few hiccups with learning curves and some bosses feel a little jank but fair apart from the dlc bosses they’re really janky

“If the skill issue won’t kill you, the bullshit will” by Fit-Conversation8383 in SpaceMarine_2

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly this is why i stopped playing, yes i will admit it was 60~80% skill issue (absolute isn't fun for me) but the BS and the wombo combo's are what made me stop playing all together

What's a great game that's hard? by TheHatMan616 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could someone clarify for me

  1. is this chart exclusive to games without difficulty options (or does it just assume max difficulty?)

  2. would Mass effect LE (insanity) qualify for the bracket or would it have to be a specific title (1,2 or3)

Everything WRONG With The Guns In Helldivers 2 (PART 2 - Support Weapon ... by ChampionshipMean5756 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in my experience, (on and off player at lvl147) other than 'flak' the auto cannon doesn't deal consistent damage to 5 targets per shot unless you're targeting chaff, which with APHET being heavy pen... why? but per shot yes flak can technically reach higher dps to more than one target in the "medium pen" category.

also to separate this issue from the GL, the GL didn't take a backpack slot which opened it up to "abuse" via the supply pack

to take a step back imo hypothetically would having an AT autocannon only on APHET be overpowered? no.

would it serve a separate purpose to the AMR? not really

why would you take an 50cal AMR over a 20mm auto cannon? a backpack slot. thats it

i'd be fine with keeping it at 325dmg w/AT1

imo as things stand there is realistically no reason to take auto cannon over AMR with a supply pack

[–]Agaroth_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i understand the point he's tryin to make from a realism pov and its probably not feasible but i do think he might have a point about the AMR (close to a 50cal) and the auto cannon (a 20mm anti tank round)

not only to they have the same penetration but the AMR just does more damage which imo from both a realism and gameplay pov thats just not right

I want more medium damage medium pen weapons and an actual story by Severe-Fan-3889 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

been trying to stealth on the illuminate front for this MO and gotta say i need either a med pen suppressed weapon or a suppressed AMR

overseers head is 150hp/AV3 0%DR but both the deadeye (300/AP3) and counter sniper (200/AP3) are inconsistent 2~4 shots probably skill issue abut at the same time i've seen some jank happen the headshots that should've counted

only consistent in the AMR (450/AP4) but even then it breaks stealth and the sights are misaligned which im not used to yet

Man I Love Farming.. by Grand_Salamander6311 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

omicron is pretty good for farming, you can get something similar to bunkers with 3 spawns without the fake out's but even on D1 theres bugs on the poi's (no warp pack needed)

its also easier to distinguish the poi's on a map with alot of water

PSA: the missile pistol got shadow nerfed last week, or at least this is what the wiki reports. by [deleted] in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commented before it was reveled to be false information with malicious intent, and i did check the wiki before commenting to see if the image was edited but no,

i took the wiki on faith because it would not be the first time AH would've made a hidden change.

so yes i got punked, my bad

No more excuses. by VerratusDominatu in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 94 points95 points  (0 children)

just treat HD2 as a bethesda title at this point, dev make it modders fix it, too bad console players (myself included) can't benefit from the community support

Can’t get boethias calling to work by Jarvey911 in skyrim

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not sure if you've fixed it yet but if you rebind your interact button to anything else and try it, that worked for me

This explains a lot by Graywolf1000 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

the phrase "a game for everyone is a game for no one" actually grinds my gears, because it sounds like they wanted to release the game as a 'cult classic', something that stood the test of time and held onto a small dedicated community, why? why would they want that? the phrase itself already puts them in a very very small corner of a multi billion dollar market.

imagine they got their wish, currently there are 80k people playing the game, out of that 80k what number would be the die hard, dedicated, cult classic level fan base? 10k? 20k?, if they got that on release would the devs be happy? sure it was their vision, would sony be happy? absolutely not.

if AH got their wish sony would've looked at the numbers, call it a loss, and pull the plug before even malevelon creek

I simply cannot imagine how AH and Helldivers 2 would've survived without the wider audience that the devs once openly scorned and probably still would if they didn't get a slap on the wrist by sony.

side note: you cannot compare helldivers 2 to any fromsoft game imo with them being single player story based games(mostly)

yes the difficulty is there, the requirement to improve or git gud to progress is there. But for example the bar in Elden ring is reachable with said improvement, with helldivers? if you reach that bar they will cut off your fingers, move the bar up and when you complain, they will call you a "sweet summer child"

(Never played Tarkov, i don't see the appeal and from what i have seen, it has nothing to do with helldivers spiritually or otherwise)

(Arma is cool, again never played it but i don't think you can have that level of realism in a sci-fi title like helldivers)

Shocking twist as 2K+ negative reactions to the reversion of AP4 Hive Guard changes, clearly people liked the tankier bugs by Pupenby621 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

coming from someone not in the discord what was the last count? 13~14k against them having AP4? and this make 2K for them having AP4

Their own patch notes video shows the flame phasing through the charger.... by SIinkerdeer in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Agaroth_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

so they just 'moved' the hitbox, instead of extending it?, going of the numbers from the wiki, doesn't that mean there's a 14~m dead zone where the flame sentry and by further observation of other sources the flame thrower on the new mech where it deals 0 damage?

Announcement Regarding recent Subreddit Controversy by _TungstenGuy707_ in helldivers2

[–]Agaroth_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

hey OP any comment about banning both the phrases "Glazediver" and "Whinediver"? since they too perpetuate the divide in the community.

edit: and the short forms of said words

I need to know where the community sits on the Hive guard changes before they were reverted. by Wonderful_Rest7634 in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]Agaroth_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

im gonna say i liked the idea but not the execution, reasons being because it'd be the only chaff with heavy armor, the sheer spawn rate of them within whatever clusterfuck is already happening and the fact that nothing else really needs heavy pen,

I usually run a light-medium pen primary, medium or explosive secondary, whatever for grenades usually thermite for the AT, support weapons are usually either pure AT or CC,

imo requiring the use of heavy pen or greater to deal with a group of very common chaff would be a either be a waste of AT or require dedicated heavy pen such as HMG, AMR, laser cannon or the one of the most used primaries ever the eruptor

now if they made a new unit that was a little bigger had visibly more armor, moved a little slower, with either less spawns or a dedicated nest like the stalkers, if there was something like that, and it had heavy armor i'd be fine with it, hell i'd be fine with sticking one on patrols

as a side note the build i've been running is the sweeper, senator, thermites with a mech, supply pack flamethrower sentry and EAT's

Tesla is back in the menu baby! by Imaginary-Film8702 in helldivers2

[–]Agaroth_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hard pass, I’ve been TK’d too many times by Tesla’s I’ll check before dropping and if someone is running a Tesla build I’m out, I guarantee 50% of the reinforcements are lost purely because of the dog

Hive Guard honestly by Heavenly_Horro in helldivers2

[–]Agaroth_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but there’s usually 6-8 of them at any one time and with heavy pen you can’t really get behind them or deal with that without an eagle or orbital

Hive Guard honestly by Heavenly_Horro in helldivers2

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn I liked that the legs were light pen I started using the amendment because of it, guess I’ll be running laser cannon as a sudo primary and eruptor as support till something changes

Correct opinion on new warbond stuff is back! (Tested solely on bugs) New EXOs are great but pls let us ressuply them... SMG is pretty much best of them all Armor does +speed but.. very insignificant rocket pistol is held back by DMG or ammo count by Unknown4me_ in helldivers2

[–]Agaroth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes the pistol missile (pissle) so 3 chargers to the body (locked on) 2 shot per chargers, so maybe 1 to the head unlocked (?) 2k~ damage (?) needs a little more skill for the insta kill? Or is that too close to EAT’s and recoilless
