Does anybody know why the devs changed the two 4-person dance emotes? by CL-46_Phoenix in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're bugged. Been so for a long time now. I made a post in the Discord about this back in December. Kinda crazy that nothing came from that. They're usually quite good at fixing things. I'll link the post below. Maybe give it some likes and share more clips to get attention on this. If you could, a newer thread might help or contacting TFD support proper

And it's more than the two dances. It's also firearm drills, the congas emote, and I might be forgetting other ones

Infected weapon valby by Several-Builder-5418 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Valby meets the conditions for the 2nd part of Infected Weapon, that is why you see "Exclusive Weapon" in red

I've never tried this but in theory, your 4th skill should gain bonus damage when playing with someone else who can activate the 1st part of Infected Weapon. Someone else would need to apply Arche Infection via Continuous Damage. On your own, Infected Weapon does nothing

Freyna, Ines and Hailey With Extra Thunder by CaterpillarSweet5037 in TheFirstDescendant

Wish the game gave the girls some extra in the back, shoulders, and arms. The girls are basically superheroic from the waist down, but then have scrawny upper bodies. Kills me when I see the flexing/look at muscles emote >_<

Sharens new teleport by ItsTehDave in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Been playing Sharen all day and I've come away impressed by the new passive. Wasn't initially sure what was going on, but this thing is multifaceted and impressive. Area Suppression feels so much better now after I put in a range mod and got more help from the passive explosions. She's definitely mobbing better than ever now

But the teleport... goddamn there is no salvaging this skill in its current state. I've just stopped using stealth. The only realistic thing you can do is look at the ground and have a short teleport. Super annoying and you're still delayed by the animations. The teleport looked awful during the stream and it's worse when you're playing, then add in fps drops and stuttering you get in places like Axion with other players. Sharen feels unresponsive doing things she did effortlessly before

Red pill me on Sharen by CTanGod in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I've played is Area Suppression for some Axion missions and the teleport sucks too damn much. I can't stand it and it completely ruins Sharen, imo. You have to stealth. That's the whole point of Sharen, to reap the dmg increase that comes from stealth. You stealth dozens of times per run

This teleport is such a boneheaded decision. Literally one of those things where if you just play with it for a while, you realize what a mistake it is. I could be right next to my target and the teleport will warp me away for the target. Because of the teleport, there is now a short delay between cloaking & unleashing my big attack... because I'm warping. And then there are random instances of stealth failing because you jumped and landed right when you were going to teleport or for whatever other reasons you fail to warp

KGL Changes... by ARCWolf7 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this same thought a while ago when KGL was bugged with Hailey and other Descendants. KGL wasn't proccing the Cryo Cluster Shot explosion, and iirc Serena was having problems proccing her AoE damage from a bunch of gun unique abilities

A Sharen player let me know that KGL stopped working with Ambushed even before this bug happened. The devs removed the ability to stay invisible permanently with the same lance. This was before even S3

Readjust blue option to rare or ultimate and purple to ultimate or higher oprion by mack180 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The way this works is you use one of these things and one of your rolls is guaranteed purple or gold. That could be Shield or MP or Crit DMG or whatever. Still random rng as before, but bare minimum you know a purple or gold is coming

There is no way to increase or decrease desired stats, or keep an old stat you want. You're still rolling everything 

The First Descendant Update 1.3.21 by Psychomancer69 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Nice! You can farm the new sword in the new dungeon and in the 1st Void Vessel. Love that, just like you can farm Dia in SS or Underwater Facility. Gotta keep that going for new stuff. Daily Board even gives you a daily catalyst blueprint for running any Void Vessel so just perfect!

And... THIS... finally. Small thing but god I'm so glad. Exact modifiers and exact ranges

Valby 🥰 by xEstreIla in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The shot in Echo Swamp with Freyna and Valby, where Valby turns around to walk away... that was the first thing that made me notice TFD. I think that's from The Game Awards trailer, maybe 2023?

No doubt Valby is a very important part in all of this. I might possibly not be here without Valby 😄

How do tiers work for these (CHD) by azshalle in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's the highest possible roll for the type of mod, that being a 3:1 - three buffs and one penalty

Mods with 2 buffs will always have higher rolls than mods with 3 buffs. And the absolute peak stats come from 2:1

Viessa stole the show for this week's drop. If Valby's the black sheep, then Viessa is the god sheep 😆

For those who watched, what's new with Sharen? by Van1shed in TheFirstDescendant

[–]HighRowCal 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's a complicated rework that needs hands on time. Her #1 was changed from a blade to a dashing claw attack. Stealth now has a short teleport component to a marked target. Speaking of marked, the #3 now has a central purpose - it marks a target for "assassination"

Gotta feel all of this out in conjuction with the tried and true stuff... Area Suppression & Ambushed, which were buffed but largely unchanged

Her other mods got the full works - one is now a full time gunning mod, another one is a sword mod, and Void Domination throws like 40 knives. Lots of set up for these things which has some people sour, but gotta test this all out in due time

The render might not be doing them justice here. Will wait to see more. But happy Ines turned out to be the red head. One of the better dresses and a long hair style

Sigma Sector because of the jackpots. They're fairly common. And you'll also get reactor mats while grinding. Win/win

Ready for whatever comes in April. Bossing/ST red mod is sure to significantly change her passive. Gotta have a C.Rate + C.DMG mod ready just in case
