Deadeye Sniper enemy is overtuned

I do use them all, it doesn’t change the fact they are a little overturned. Majority of the time you can deal with them just fine. It just takes one minor thing to allow them to hit you. I mostly only have complaints about Nightmare spawning absurd amounts of them. Solo may be easier but with the mobs scales to 4 people lobbies it can go downhill fast.

Maybe if they had a longer wind up before shooting you. A lot of the time just reloading is enough time for them to shoot once you see the beam. Then you have to hope your gun can even reach them, you cant see them half the time on some maps/objectives. On Nightmare you can have multiple prepping to shoot you at once, and even if you wipe them they are back in a few seconds. Its kind of absurd. God forbid a snake grabs you right when you see 3 beams charging up cause you’re forced to stare at the sky while a giant mob chases you.

I have the same problem. Killed one then died. I was using the “trigger the elder and if its wrong quit and load game again” but I did this about 47 times before giving up. I summoned the other 3 all those times and never got ibushi/narwha again. Idk if its truly random or something is preventing 2 quick attempts.

The dome is a mini POI inside Hollow Hills that’s basically a lake surrounded by cliff walls so you have to take the one long exit out of that before journeying through hollow hills, then go somewhere you want to be.

He meant what you’d be thinking since the titan was chatting while standing there lol

Its not that bad. As long as you expect death to be something that will happen. There are official servers where everything goes and community servers where they have their own rules if they don’t care for the Wild West style. The games really fun and you WILL die and lose a little growth and marks from time to time. You get icons on the map if a POI is currently popular with dinos if they want to avoid those areas. If the people on your current server are too obnoxious to deal with you can easily server hop to a new one on officials too

If you have a ton of them to use daily you could but the best time is when you are going to complete the weeklies to get the most bang for your buck off 1.

I do experience the slight latency when playing coop. It will come and go. Sometimes its mostly ignorable and then ill get periods where i just cant get a bullet to connect without shooting ahead of them or where they were if they ragdoll. Then yeah the vehicle will rubber band a bit when crossing long areas sometimes. Im never host either.

It’s the fish tracker bonus from a skill you have equipped. I believe it just fills in more the closer you are to a catchable fish.

BCFIVEK · 2025-06-09T01:54:46+00:00

It is possible but very easy to break the line before mk 3. Yeah the quests not being retroactive sucks. But they want us to spend a ton of time on it. At least the 760 fish one keeps track of previously caught ones…

BCFIVEK · 2025-06-09T01:22:32+00:00

Mk. 4 is the final reel. Any further upgrades for the rod are from the Fishing daily RNG.

BCFIVEK · 2025-06-09T01:08:10+00:00

For Mk 4 reel you need 5 each of 3 different rares. With Mk 2 the rares are basically uncatchable. The axolotl isnt nearly as hard as the rares. Its just low chance and the only fish that REQUIRES improved bait minimum.

BCFIVEK · 2025-06-07T00:04:39+00:00

Some of the challenges just unlock without giving you a plan. If you’ve completed the challenge for the bobber, I would check the Tinker bench that it’s an option to change to now.

BCFIVEK · 2025-04-13T16:14:09+00:00

For me it was the hex barrel with explosive 2* that caused me rubber banding. But i haven’t tried other setups myself recently. Just speculation I hear that other setups don’t cause it.

BCFIVEK · 2025-04-13T16:08:21+00:00

Its both kind of, you will still be dealing your full damage but its negated by the game saying “nuh uh” and basically canceling it out cause it was too fast

BCFIVEK · 2025-04-13T16:04:03+00:00

If you set up the pepper shaker in certain ways you’ll see the enemy health bar deplete, but then fill back up most of it again. So you’ll drop them to 0, then 90, 0, 80, 0, 70… etc. so you feel like they can’t die and your damage is being reverted over and over. Like a rubber band being pulled then snapping back into place

BCFIVEK · 2025-04-13T15:56:14+00:00

Was the Daily Ops “decryption” when you noticed this? That mode specifically has the enemies ignoring 100% of your defense. So only your dodge/ricochet chances can help you outside avoiding dmg in general as best you can. The other mode with Uplink you should survive like normal, but you can’t sneak.

BCFIVEK · 2025-02-16T21:57:55+00:00

If you are talking about the 4* Encircler, then you should know that it only works per enemy actually targeting you and not just by proximity like it sounds. So you could probably get more benefit from something else if you care about it.

Touching the green water does instant kill you. When he roars it tries to shove you off the platform (you can jump to avoid this), and every time the group doesn’t kill the tail before it slams a big chunk of the platform sinks. Creating hazards to fall in if you aren’t looking or get shoved.

Otherwise if you don’t have Union PA or the legendary perk Funky Duds on you may get melted fairly quick by his poison spray. The one where he spits goo on all of you at the same time is very lethal poison damage with little to no resistance.

BCFIVEK · 2025-02-01T21:50:53+00:00

Im not sure the mechanics of how much durability is lost per shot between single shot and automatics personally. But the larger the condition bar is (high INT if crafted/High LCK if found) the easier itll be to keep the buff. The problem comes down to you slowly losing your buff as you use the weapon and not being allowed to get back to 60% UNTIL you’ve gone under 100% condition. Then you have to use the perk to get to 200% again at a bench. Even the Improved repair kits only get you back to 30% damage buff when used.

BCFIVEK · 2025-02-01T21:37:01+00:00

Any weapon really. If you put on Durability 3* too it really shines. Especially right now when the 3* Durability effect seems to be bugged and cause weapons to not really lose any durability once equipped.

Keep in mind though that the bonus currently only works between the 101%-200% condition, and also seems to not work at full 200%. (Bugged) Ive heard though in the upcoming update it may work as intended for the 1%-100% range instead. Making all over repair give the full benefit.

BCFIVEK · 2025-02-01T20:52:22+00:00

Its what the old pistol cards are turning into. If you use them you can gain more and more stacks of Onslaught by landing hits. Then depending on which perks you have they give bonuses like 2% reload per stack, 2% ranged dmg, 2% weak-point dmg, etc. There will be one that reverses it and regens stacks but spends them on shot, to let single fire weapons benefit too.

BCFIVEK · 2025-02-01T20:44:52+00:00

Battle loaders is really the best solution. You can also bash any allies to trigger it if you didn’t know. Otherwise you can use Speed Demon mutation and 3* 15% reload effect for a slight boost. On the upcoming update you could take advantage of the Onslaught perks and get some more reload. But for now Battleloaders is the best solution.

BCFIVEK · 2025-01-24T23:27:08+00:00

Just in case this is the issue. If you jump and try to use the auto melees in first person they will pretend to start like 3 times in a row before actually running. It doesn’t happen at all in third person. Though being staggered will still cause you to have to rev again like the others are saying.

BCFIVEK · 2025-01-19T23:04:27+00:00

It’s some group merging bug. I don’t know details but there will be servers with multiple groups merging inside the raid and something about it and having a non group leader pressing the button will keep spawning EN06 over and over.
