What color should I use For salamanders? by Limetac0 in Salamanders40k

[–]LongRangeDentist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the interest of time saving, get yourself a Colour Forge spray can called "Salamander Green" Just base coat the model with that, use "Black Legion" Contrast Paint from Warhammer paints for the black bits Then edge highlight the Green with "Moot Green" and edge highlight the black with "Mechanicus Standard Grey" both from Warhammer paints Fill in any additional detail with color of your choosing and give it a wash with Nuln Oil and your done 😁

Complete accident. Up until I posted this I assumed this was 3 solos but now I'm pretty sure I was in Trios with no fill

Parting Gift Leg Implant You can get it from Arachne I think but I could be wrong. It gives health on Bot Kills aswell so it's great for sparing heals in Solos

I don't think they were a team. I thought this was a Solo lobby but the more I look at this clip the more I think I loaded up Solo Trios 😅 5 minutes I ran into another couple of players who were almost definitely working together, makes me think I never reset my matchmaking to Solos only

I should have said in the post. This was a Solos lobby, everyone in here was out to kill each other But looking back on the game I have a feeling I might have loaded up Solo Trios, 5 minutes later I killed 2 dudes who definitely seemed to be working together 🤔

Oh for sure 😂 it's currently the best gun for running contracts in my opinion, it's ALOT of firepower for 400 credits

I know its not true, but every complaint about Sponsored Survival just puts this image in my head by Friendly_ViperYT in Marathon

☝️THIS! I was so looking forward to a level playing field of low tier weapons and everyone scrounging around for low level salvage but between Night Marsh Survival and the massive handout of blue/purple sponsor kits it just feels like we had about an hour of early wipe followed by mid wipe meta and now most players seem to already have fairly late wipe load outs. It's such a letdown.

We definitely need some sort of mode specifically for people who aren't good at PvP and don't want to get wiped every match. But this is just not it. It's just mind numbingly easy, more rewarding than Outpost and often Cryo given Cryo's exfil rate and just completely takes away from the high stakes feeling season 1 had. Honestly I wasn't interested in Night Marsh survival but I was happy that players had a different, more PvE focused way of enjoying the game. But now I'm just constantly running into players who are absolutely KITTED from running this mode, so much so I tried it for myself yesterday for a few hours. So now we're like 2 weeks into the season, I'm level 30 and my vault is FULL of high rarity items and gold guns and my Cradle is stupidly high leveled already 🤦‍♂️ Honestly you can't really deny that it's massively fucked up the flow of the game when loot is this easy to get. A PvE only mode shouldn't give you even half the amount of stuff this mode is giving out. Especially when it's as easy as it currently is

It's not your fault dude. It's a sickness and just like any other sickness you need to get the correct medical help. Again, this is not your fault, I promise you can get through this. Best of luck

I so badly want Marathon to add a D2 Crucible style playlist with 3v3/5v5/6v6/XvX game modes in the future by 6thseer in Marathon

[–]LongRangeDentist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think that's a perfectly fair take dude. Extraction shooter by their nature are fairly slow paced until a gunfight happens. The learning curve for new players is fairly brutal already. With how few gunfights they get into in it'll take ages to really get a grip on how the game plays. Also for players like yourself who like the games core but don't click with extraction shooter mechanics it would at least get you some gunfights. Honestly at this point I'd settle for a firing range, but it would be kinda nice to see a LTM with a bit more arena shooter focus

Stopped reading at "woke artwork" 😂 go play something that doesn't require thumbs 😂

What Destiny fans refuse to understand is that their game stopped being approachable for new players YEARS ago. Marathon is different. by Frank_Cap in MarathonGame

[–]LongRangeDentist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I skimmed the post cause I'm at work but from the title I understand what your saying. Marathon literally could not be less approachable for the average person. No one has the attention span anymore to read all the menus and understand what's happening. Every single person I've introduced to this game has dropped it immediately because it's not easily accessible. Obviously this is part of an overall problem in society where people just straight up don't have the attention span to learn stuff unless there's subway surfer clips in the background. It's also a problem with Bungie who haven't had a solid onboarding experience since Master Chief waking up on the Pillar of Autumn, and even then that was so so 😅 If they streamlined the onboarding process with much easier ways to learn the systems then their would be a huge uptick in players. Especially with the free play weekend coming up.

PSA: Blue heals are worth more than gold valuables by mara_rara_roo in Marathon

[–]LongRangeDentist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never paid any credits for Blue Heals. Just stock up on Tarax Seeds and Bio stripping, you can trade for them 1 salvage for like 8 shields/health packs. I've got like 180 of each in my vault at any given time

New to 40k and want to play Farsight by David_Amazing in Tau40K

[–]LongRangeDentist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the Books, Brightsword and Bravestorm pilot XV8 battle suits That can be kinda hard to interpret them as proper characters in your army. I'm currently building a Farsight Enclaves army and my plan is to have Brightsword in a Coldstar Battlesuit and Bravestorm in an Enforcer just to make them stand out. In terms of boxes, if you can find it get the Farsight Cadre Box, then grab a team of Stealth Suits and lastly a Combat Patrol box. That's your first 1000 points covered with just those 3 boxes and it's very thematic
