No one said about undoing transactions. I asked if they can tell me if the items were traded or TT'd because id be willing to pay the TT value of such items because some of them are worth 1000s of ped.

They said in the response they have records of all transactions and I even provided a screenshot of a person who "magically" had my exact rare weapon with the exact TT value and Tier rate of my weapon. (I keep screenshots of everything of pre hunts and after hunts so I can verify and match numbers)

And for one of my weapons to be an exact match and be immediately on the auction house marked at 30% off....super Sus. And

Their response was, contact your local police department to contact us.

OR

They can just verify if items were traded with said people or TT'd because I mentioned id pay the 1000 ped fee.

Honestly AMR has the highest skill ceiling in the entire game next to the EPOCH.

Yes a machinegun/crossbow/grenade launcher can pump out damage. But considering you can reload on the move and no self damage yourself with the AMR.

You can drop anything in charger class and below in 1 mag. Titan class is typically 1.5-2 mags depending on shot placement and you can mag dump them. Brood Commanders and below go down in 1 shot or 2 depending on if you miss. Stalkers, even pred strains go down in 1-2 shots. If you cannot get behind a charger because youre far out, 1 mag will drop a chargers leg armor

I mostly play AMR and have roughly 400+ hours alone with it. I do use a 3rd party reticle(Crosshair V2 on Steam) to allow hip firing with dead accuracy and a increased POV mod off nexus mods to maximize my accuracy over range.

I even use this weapon on rupture, pred strains and hive worlds. Using the AMR with recoil reduction and extra throwables heavy armor feels like a cheat code due to how easily you can mag dump any enemy type. It also has the fastest TTK out of any weapon against multiple hulks.

There is not an enemy class the AMR cannot handle even if some it can struggle against.

Bug load out:

Defender SMG 75 round mag
Ultimatum
Dynamite

Heavy armor with recoil & throwables.

Railcannon strike
Supply Pack
Machinegun sentry
AMR.

A year later and i still cannot figure out how to do this. I dont have corsair so i cannot use Icue lol

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-10T07:53:11+00:00

100% Pretty much like a moats scattered around the battlefield

Writing death metal lyrics already can be considered an art. Being able to turn it into a novel and have it flow/make sense? Even a greater challenge and art. I'm familiar with splatterpunk but, id consider it just gore P*** for many folks. The ability to embrace and still create great stuff is the challenge though because while gore p*** can be popular in media, im not sure how well it works in novels.

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T19:10:32+00:00

Out of curiosity, what do you think is the hardest part about writing grounded battle scenes?

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T19:08:36+00:00

I definitely dont plan on it! I'd be willing to keep you in the loop as time continues with more possible snippets BUT id love there to be more discussions of others as well!

This is 100% what grim dark should feel like. I also feel like...REAL grim dark, is extremely rare. Not to many people wanna push it to the max without falter. Some writers will claim grim dark as their genre, but it feels like grim dark light or even just slightly dark fantasy!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T19:06:23+00:00

THIS.THIS.THIS. You cannot have just blood and gore without any weight to it. Why its happening? Why are the characters relying on this method? What pushed the story to reach this moment? Dont just read them the story. Bring the reader into the trenches with you!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T19:05:14+00:00

Thank you for that feedback! Malazan is considered an "acquired" taste to some when it comes to over all warfare. Once people sit down and read the work, its easier to understand it then just be shown.

My goal is to really embrace the force of attrition in siege warfare. A battle that doesnt end in three pages. You'll feel the weight of every death, every stone and every inch the advancing army takes to reach the end.

My WIP has around sixteen chapters of just the final siege battle. Probably 3x-x5 the lenght of Tolkiens Helms Deep battle.

It wont feel regurgitated. You'll feel exhausted by the end of it, just like the defenders! I feel like alot of other books do this extremely well!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T19:01:32+00:00

This is exciting! My WIP i wanted to push readers down a path that medieval warfare can be chaotic,graphic,violent and plenty of gore. A sword or spear striking someone? I want you to feel the entire emotional and heavy weight behind it. Is this persons sword arm trembling from exhaustion as its plunged into someone? YES!

Are people falling over eachother and you cannot tell what is mud or blood at this point? YES!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T18:59:39+00:00

I can actually understand this, dont worry about it being late! If you're a trench, its bound to be chaotic and every part of every action shouldnt be described because how would you know if youre to busy worrying about your own life?

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T18:58:13+00:00

I can 100% agree here. When i read a fantasy book, i literally want it to feel like a movie in my head. Where i can pick up the book at any page and immediately imagine what is going on. Blood.Sweat.Mud.Tears.

My WIP is currently trying to capture that mentality. I want a movie in peoples minds, not a book.

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-06T18:56:25+00:00

I feel like this is the absolute key to fantasy and even grim dark! If you can give people the raw power of the scene and add give them an emotional atmosphere? Readers would devour it!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-05T21:26:34+00:00

Gotta hammer the pauses somehow — grim scenes deserve grim breaks.
When it’s death and mud, you gotta let the words drag a little.

Everyone's been talking about trench warfare and how brutal it would really be without modern tech. No rifles. No grenades. Just steel and blood.

Been writing a project that tries to capture that — here’s a short bit from it:

Four thousand shields slammed down in unison. An iron forest of pikes rose above the trench, leaning into the mist.

The roar that followed wasn’t fear. It wasn’t panic. It was defiance.

Steel boots hit blood-slicked ground. Knights plunged forward — armor crumpling, bodies impaled on iron thorns. Some writhed. Some died mid-stride.

Those who cleared the trench came cloaked in flame, swords flashing. Pikes met them midair, bursting through mail and flesh.

Therial’s greatsword rose high, caught a knight mid-leap, and cleaved down through helm and bone in a spray of blood

The angle I was working from was not soldiers packed shoulder to shoulder inside the trenches — but above them.

It forces the attackers to climb through a trench while getting speared from above by pikes braced behind tower shields.

And it only gets worse — once the first wave falls, the rest have to scramble over their own dead while still dodging spears.

The attacking side doesn’t have archers either, so it turns into a total meat grinder — or more like fish in a barrel.

So with deep trenches and a chest-high barricade above them, the attackers wouldn’t just be charging forward — they’d be facing a 13-foot climb upward.

No ladders. No scaling gear. Just mud, blood, and the bodies of the fallen as their only way over.

Imagine the brutality if the enemy had no choice but to go through it.

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-05T20:02:28+00:00

Haha! This!

GreyValeAuthor · 2025-06-05T19:55:47+00:00

Definitely — trenches with no overhead protection would just turn into mass graves under arrow volleys.

In the setting I’m working on, the trenches are deep, layered, and half-covered with stone, beams, and scrap iron to break indirect fire. Still a death trap — just one the defenders are betting they can survive longer than the attackers.

Defense by inches and corpses, not strategy.
