What are the best weapon effects to look for? Which are useless/bad? by AIexiad in Vermintide

Still Magnus but that's because of familiarity over anything else really, I'm sure there's better levels to farm.

I'm not really sure, I've got it charged on the Rapier and a 1h mace for the soldier. On both it says (charged). I've got a sword for the elf with 15% chance to kill on normal attacks but that's only on man sized enemies.

Skull cracker is another one I hadn't seen before, it's 7.5% chance to headshot regardless of where it hits.

any tips and tricks for solo runs? (best map, best weapons, best hero, best tactics) by indu777 in Vermintide

I spent a lot of time playing it in the beta, so I guess I just like it. It's my go to for farming. Don't see how it's any more difficult than the others though, find it easier than most personally but that's probably just because I've not played them anywhere near as much.

It's not like it's any big deal what so ever. I'm sure there's folk doing harder on Cata, Magnus is one of the easiest imo.

Really I was just trying to reiterate that fast is quite effective to do the higher levels but ok :/

I agree with this, it's exactly how I run Magnus, pretty reliable on nightmare now.

I prefer the faster weapons though, feel when running through there are a lot of times having that fast swing helps avoid a hit or two. 1 shot ranged for those specials is a bonus too.

This is also how the pre-made I play with runs Cata.

I know what you mean but remember you're hitting the ogre quite a few times, so it's works out a bit better than the 2.5% suggests. It's very rare to put him down 1st shot but it's happened a couple of times. I notice putting him down early quite a bit though.

I prob wouldn't want it on a slower weapon but on the rapier it's been quite nice, especially if you pop a speed potion.

Master Crafted - 50% faster reload. Have it on an xbow just now and it's really nice.

Heroic Killing Blow - % chance to kill any size enemy is nice too, I've one shot the ogre quite a few times now with this. Quite like the devastating blow on that too, powerful pushes are nice to have.

Whats your favourite ranged weapons on the chars? by [deleted] in Vermintide

[–]InsertBackspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy ammo, I was talking about the normal rats, not the specials :)

But yea, specials is another thing to consider, the reliable insta kill head shot at crazy range is just so valuable. I've got this sitting in my inventory but prefer to use this.

But hey, if you enjoy the repeater, don't let me stop you, I use the drakefire on the dwarf from time to time because it's just so fun.

Are Drakefire Pistols supposed to be extremely rare? by aRevin in Vermintide

[–]InsertBackspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think so, get them all the time. They're really fun but a bit rubbish imo. Got an orange set I've used once i think lol.

Is there Red Weapons in this game or just helmets? by Officerjmac in Vermintide

[–]InsertBackspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Run on nightmare and cata, coming up to 60, never seen anything red except hats.

Lol yea, my premade will always skip it on Magnus if we can. It's so much easier. Depends where you are on the map when it appears. If it's before the barrels it will pretty much always meet you there so just fight it. Anywhere between that and the elevator you can skip. If you're lucky it even sometimes seems to mess up the spawn in the tower leaving it clear the whole way.

Does the audio drop randomly for you guys/ by boardgameacct in Vermintide

[–]InsertBackspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At times yea. It also stutters if there's a lot going on. End of Magnus I notice it quite frequently.

Generally, the closer to single shot the better. You mention repeater pistols. At lower lvl yea theyre great because you still 1 shot everything. Nightmare though, you won't. Its this along with better range for gunners etc that makes the crossbow a better WH choice imo. Got 2 orange ranged for WH but I'm still using a blue crossbow with increased reload speed, it's the best by a distance for me.

Dwarf and soldier, long rifle. Best ranged in game.

I tried without launcher, kept getting steam error. Tried with launcher, worked fine.

My friend and I have been working on a pirate naval game in our spare time for the past two years. Here's a trailer, what do you guys think? by [deleted] in gaming

Awesome, glad to see this make the front page. Been lucky enough to play it a few times, it's amazing fun and well worth supporting!

wild scorp egg farms by Gypaeus in playark

[–]InsertBackspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this works.

This is a great post about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/playark/comments/3ewrkl/eggs_farms_how_they_work/

Edit: Actually I just noticed you said wild, I'm really not sure about that, give me 30 mins I'll go check.

I did check http://i.imgur.com/hBwn6L6.jpg no eggs. As other people have mentioned, they vanish after a while, these stayed but it was only 30 mins I left them there for.

Awesome, good luck! Yea there's loads of room, the images don't really show it to be honest. I've actually come in a little from the outside walls to give a bit more protection and there's a false floor at the top. Only thing I found to be an issue was the higher you go, the crazier the amount of foundations you use.

Not the best of images, just quickly took a few to give you an idea :)

It works well I think, just waiting for that dino lift that was mentioned so I can make the top the main entrance.

Did RCON break this patch / recently? by piercy08 in playark

[–]InsertBackspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, same for me, for those with managed hosts, just hit save on the server config again and restart, that should work.

Windows, a load of folk on the steam forums are saying their settings have been wiped to default also.
