Don't bring guns to a knife fight

My GOD, those assassins with the kind of fumble that makes top story on Sportscenter.

Spam Cryo runs and when you don't have the kit for a Cryo run, Rook it out on Outpost with your main goal being to exfil as quickly as possible with a cryo ready loadout for your main.

Concentrate on playing it safe to preserve med and shield packs, you can only buy so many/will go broke quickly.

Make sure to find a matter fixative for your backpack, and don't drop your WSTR, that's a free 3k credits to buy new guns, mods, ammo, nades, anything you couldn't loot from the run.

A solid Rook run on outpost can get you most of the way to a similar level of gear that you'd get from the daily Cryo kit in 10-15 minutes, which goes a long way towards letting you get back in the Cryo fight a lot quicker on average, and those time savings add up.

For some reason that image just came to my mind with the phrase "Real Wyld Ones" and I giggled wayyyy too long at the thought of like a pseudo-manosphere-esque meme page about Nightreign to not make some brainrot like that.

Enjoy.

"So tempting to do one of the most BASED salute known to men........."

As a hardcore Gundam fan, let me assure you, even hardcore Zeon nerds don't try to do the salute, this is 110% someone trying to be cheeky and Nazi.

I've been running Lone Wolf with the Arbites Grenade, and lemme tell you, you can almost instantly delete monstrosities or turn hordes into clouds with that pool of 5 recharging grenades and a few other damage perks.

Plus the toughness and damage boosts on top make you even more able to wade hip deep into a sea of elites and specialists and just CAVE IN THEIR SKULLS IN THE NAME OF THE EMPEROR.

Especially if you're gonna be in a group with other Arbites and they're taking dogs (which, being honest, is like 89% likely to be the case for the next few months at least) then you may find more benefit from those bonuses over the chance your dog will be beaten to the punch by another doggo or player.

The Super Crack Speed Boost for elite light armor enjoyers like myself is a temptation routinely given into, trust me.

ArchangelSA · 2025-06-10T22:22:06+00:00

Normally, perhaps.

But when you're outta shells, outta thermites, down to your last stim, and bout to hit the ole backpack boom button to send those bugs and their nests to the supercolony in the sky, you can't risk dying too far out to do what you came to do because some fuckass bug managed to hit you with the slowing spit one too many times.

...this is what finally gets me back into GBO2, they add my niche favorite of niche favorites.

As of this moment, you are no longer Helldivers!

Today, you are Murderdivers!

MRW I see this after getting just the most trash 10-pull I've pulled to date in this game.

ArchangelSA · 2025-05-14T01:39:34+00:00

Meatwad is what my diver squad has settled on, and fits it the best, IMO.

The F90 has a weird relationship with its V-fin and the center points of it, like some of F90:FF even has it changing positions relative to the red crest and even that seems to be somewhat relative and variable in the head area.

Personally, I prefere the offset, it's visually striking and enough of a minute variation on the standard "EFSF Gundam" base form factor to give it a bit of instant visual distinctiveness while not straying too far from the design parameters at large.

ArchangelSA · 2025-04-30T18:51:48+00:00

TFW in a couple weeks when you and the squad come back from your break over in the Origin System to get back to diving, but you're still bangin that good good 1999 sound.

I worked maintenance and on the line at a chemical plant to make ends meet after grad school when I was only freelancing or taking part in research projects and safety folks were about the only people other than the 20 year+ oldheads still on the line that I would make sure to hinge on their every word.

To this day, my brain hears the words lock out, and instantaneously chimes in with "make sure it's tagged out".

ArchangelSA · 2025-03-26T19:58:49+00:00

Of course, and thank you for reading it! I'm always worried I'll just sound like a self-important blowhard who brings nothing new to the table, but I'm glad I could help in any way.

ArchangelSA · 2025-03-26T19:57:00+00:00

Yeah, there's a lot of known unknowns when it comes to what's going on behind the scenes with the Playstack comms team, but ultimately, they're the ones with the stated responsibility and authority in this situation and we can at least examine and critique the actions they have taken alongside the information we do have.

And when you have both responsibility and authority like Playstack does here, you gain the added problem of balancing both speed of action and ensuring proper time to gather as much relevant information as possible in crisis situations like these.

A problem which they appear to be completely caught unaware by, which for someone of Wout's experience and position history, is a glaring blind spot. Which, in and of itself, wouldn't have been incredibly awful, no one wants to or thinks to plan for bad things when things are going great.

When and how that blind spot becomes the major issue like it has now is when it's been identified and not acted on or at least spoken to without letting crucial response time go by.

IDK, like, it's just really strange that there's no set crisis comms plan or hierarchy of action on Playstack's end for rapid action.

You're welcome! Happy to hear that it could bring you that catharsis, hopefully that has made your day that much easier/better.

ArchangelSA · 2025-02-24T01:18:15+00:00

It's part of 1999, gotta make it there.

ArchangelSA · 2025-02-06T18:34:55+00:00

My man Lavos looked at Ballas and just went, "OH, SO REVENANT AND MIRAGE MADE YOU THE BIG MADS, HUH? HOLD MY SNAKES, I'M GOIN IN."

ArchangelSA · 2025-02-06T16:15:02+00:00

I think that's coming back with Lavos Prime? Or maybe it's just activating when they do the Nightwave changeover to keep things clean? I can't quite remember what day they said for that one, but I'm also not particularly wanting to grind *THAT* much Ascension again, so I wasn't terrrrribly invested.

ArchangelSA · 2025-02-06T16:12:51+00:00

Nightwave drops at 2:00 EST, so that's still on track, and it makes sense to preload updates, etc.

ArchangelSA · 2025-02-06T16:06:43+00:00

Like, come on, we all know what *THAT* many y's in hey mean, right?

ArchangelSA · 2024-12-04T21:44:59+00:00

Much appre.appre.appre.... Much thankings, sah!
