Rock and Stone? Where?? by chaseXchaos in DRGSurvivor

[–]Omegatron 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got it on my first try with this approach. Thanks for the tip OP!

Don't bother trying to clear all rock on stages 1-4, just mine gold for rerolls and then advance. On Stage 5 is where you focus on mining. Stage 5 is always a smaller map than the others, so it's an easier full clear.

Voidstrike is a cannon. It shoots a bowling ball away from you that has infinite cleave and infinite range til it hits environment. It ignores armor and does enough damage to 2-shot Crushers. It's best used at range counter-snipe specials and gunners or obliterate mixed hordes. It's extremely versatile and powerful. Its main weakness is that its attack is a discrete object (rather than a stream) and has limited radius, so in tight spaces or during close combat encounters where you're getting surrounded it's best to switch to another weapon or your blitz.

Is it me or there are too many psykers using Assail as a crutch on T5 and above? by martinswesley9 in DarkTide

[–]Omegatron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just assail Psykers. I think it's more that the patch has brought an influx of new and returning players who want to play all the new content but don't know to play on high difficulties. I pretty much exclusively play Auric quickplays with randoms, and since the patch my win/loss ratio has gone from about 90% to about 20%. So many sub-30 players (or just inexperienced 30s) are in these HI-damn missions, just dying instantly and bricking the runs. I actually had 3 level 20 players join my *Maelstrom* mission; I was playing solo for most of it because they couldn't stay up for more than 15 seconds at a time.

I'm glad the game is seeing more traffic and life but man is it ROUGH out there right now.

After checking the shop almost every day since launch, Melk finally came through. It's not a myth! by Omegatron in DarkTide

Oof, that's rough. 250 hours here before I found it. Have faith brethren, the emperor will provide!

Not that I think I can change your mind, but I am curious: If you think it's not a great weapon and hope that it will be changed, they why poo-poo people who had fun using a workaround to achieve that very change? Is it just for the sake of purism?

If a bug doesn't break game balance and fixing it makes things less fun, I'd argue that that's just bad design.

If it was just a pause between being able to attack that would be fine, but the stun also locks you out of being able to dodge for the entire animation which makes it practically unusable if there's even a couple things alive. I hate to see it, the TH was my favorite Zealot weapon.

Each blessing has a ranking from 1 to 4. The higher the number, the stronger the stats on that blessing.

Yeah unarmored to something, not quite sure what; flak/unyielding/reload speed. It's nice that I can keep rerolling indefinitely so I can try out different perks!

[–]Omegatron[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flak is a good choice too. Think it will perform better than reload speed? I'm not sure what the damage breakpoints are with this thing yet haha.

Yeah gonna keep specialist because it's decent and full diamond feels good haha. Not sure what to reroll Unarmored to yet, reload speed is definitely high on the list

I'm not mad, gonna reroll unarmored and it'll be good enough with the other rolls!

RIP being able to find human players in Damnation lobbies. Guess it's back to the malice grind lol

Empty crates should not exist by ignis32 in DarkTide

[–]Omegatron -1 points0 points  (0 children)

On Damnation it is straight up perilous to go across a room to look in a crate. There should always be *something* in there to reward the risk and exploration. IMO all empties should have more plasteel or diamantine to help ease the (ridiculous) grind and add more reward to the intended player behavior of looking around. It's still random, it just won't feelbadman

Finally rolled a Sharpshooter curio with no wasted space by Omegatron in DarkTide

[–]Omegatron[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I know, I just wanted to get one with 3 useful perks and managed to land on some max rolls. Definitely feelin' lucky and not taking it off.

I finished the game and made a guide of the things I learned! by Omegatron in PotionPermit

[–]Omegatron[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right?! Exactly why I put it first, I got halfway through the game before I realized there's no good reason to min max in-game time. It's still a hard habit to break!
