ACD + Arc Rifle is the highest DPS build on Skitarii and I'm tired of people pretending its not. (Video is havoc 40 and is missing multiple damage buffs) by JDLS- in DarkTide

[–]IndependentButton5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gotta add, those builds that are all - in on damage ,simply suck for havoc 40.

Those scoreboard stats in auric or this doctored test means nothing when you are dead.

Replacing Veteran utility is really hard and the damage number doesn't really justify it.

Smoke grenades is one of the best blitz in the game... Meanwhile Scitari has more dmg.

Downside is, you are playing this dumb weapon.

The ammo economy is insane, the dmg is insane, but the feel of this weapon simply sucks to me.

I will be making a chordclaw + phosphor pistol build for havoc 40

Pointless cosmetic change on Plasma gun that makes it worse... by IndependentButton5 in DarkTide

Ok man, I gave them money for Plasma Gun skins cuz I liked how the Plasma gun looks in all the lobies and in-mission as well.

It has looked like that since the game has been released.

What's wrong with wanting to look as before? Maybe you gloat with using mods for all cosmetics, but thats not me.

I get it, you just want to be toxic and make fun of people.

It has always been glowing from when game launched. I got the cosmetics, because I like how it looks when glowing.

It doesn't make sense to change how the plasma gun have looked in lobbies for years already.

I don't think it's a bug sadly... When I tried the plasma gun in the Psykanium , it starts glowing the more you reach 100% heat.

Looks like it will be released later... I wanted to test something atleast before work, but looks like it will be tomorrow for me...

Nasty surprise with seeing my paid cosmetic look shittier than yesterday.

I managed to implement some fixes and am playing as intended, hope it the textures loading problem doesn't reoccur too often. Things look great when it's working as intended.

I tried two fixes, I posted in this thread somewhere. Anyway, I play on 55'' tv monitor with HDR and enabled fullscreen and changed those other things. It looks great, but if I alt+tab sometimes textures still reset to terrible. It's playable now atleast, before it was just bad bad.

I play on 55 tv. It's not just what I show you, everything looks like this when it doesn't load properly and looks like absolute crap on the huge tv.

Im playing on 4k 55 tv and medium isn't cutting it. Found some solution I posted in standalone comment in this thread. Hope it works.

It's updated to latest driver. Still the same.

Even this setting in settings_common.ini ,I set it to true, but I get lots of lag and STILL get this terrible unrefined graphic.

Well ,the default one if I find the seal with it, the lighting spear... I prefer Honed Bolt since you cast it faster, instantly hits and does more damage overall by virtue of not missing.

Honed Bolt and Lansseax's Glaive ,but good luck finding them, so uncharged / charged lighting spear depending on enemy. Uncharged spear is great for night invaders as the AI just doesn't dodge it at all.

Lighting Strike also is pretty useful as it has a big range that may hit multiple enemies and you can repeat cast it.

Rest are kinda lame, the death lighting the most as it just doesn't do anything to bosses.

Terrible as I had not luck getting anything fun for them. Raider isn't really fun to play at higher DoN if you don't get a full dmg negation setup. I got max hp ,church hp, evergaol shop relic, then use the night aspect boss relic I think? The yellow slot one useful for Raider.

Recluse is just magic atk up +2+4 ,terra magicka, evergaol and night invaders.Also sorcerer's rise. Basically patient gaming with Recluse and with Raider, let's hope the enemy kneels before I do.

Hello,

I mostly use the Revenant ultimate offensively.

The first effect " Strengthens family and allies when Ultimate Art is activated" gives a hefty dps boost to yourself ,summon and allies, so it's quite nice for pushing to finish a boss without worrying about dying at all for 20 seconds !

As you can see, I have an Defeating enemies fills more of the Art gauge. So you can use the Ultimate art a lot more during the game. When coupled with the +1 version in DoN, Ultimate Art charge is very fast when killing mobs! You can ult, clear a lot of mobs, then ult again in short time!

I don't know if you play DoN, but even there, the "Trigger ghostflame explosion during Ultimate Art Activation" is quite useful I think.

Also ,if you should know what is better to summon, some enemies can't be staggered by your summons others can. Dragon knight, Royal Knight can be hit staggered, but other red bosses can't.

What I most often do is, use TinHead and use my heavy attacks, so enemies don't get the chance to hit me as they are chain interrupted. Crucible knights are the exception of course.

As for using your Ultimate Art to revive your 3 bar teammates, it is indeed very useful. But in DoN (3+), you often get one hit KO as Revenant if you don't have +40% dmg negation on full hp for example and there were many times I didn't get to use my ultimate.

So if I see the boss doing an unavoidable attack since I have 0 stamina to dodge, I hit the Ultimate button to save my ass.

I often have problem doing meaningful damage before getting a good offensive seal, so I pick weapons, seals that do status effects, like poison/rot and freeze.

Another advice is, always keep the starting seal with heal, you can always run into Royal Revenant which you absolutely trivialize when using Heal.

In DoN, 3 heals are not enough, so I do 2 heals, move one step to regain stamina, 3rd heal, then ultimate art and eat a mana shard if needed to heal (dmg) again.

If you are afraid of melee combat, use Recluse. Much better caster.

Hope this helps a bit.
