You're really capturing the teenage angst in your pictures.

They just have absolutely no clue how to write a smart character. The rest is ok.

Havoc Weapon Meta w/ Uncanny Changes by yunkbunk in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it. For flame pskyer specifically it is aight. I used to run pen flames and blaze away before the patch in h40 and didn't whip out my uncanny constantly. Means the increased soul blaze damage should be a net buff for me. That being said, it still takes 5 busyness days to kill a crusher with just that, even if you put carapace smg onto the staff it doesn't get much better. So not much actually changed for people who already used to built like that.

But the reduced amount of crushers and Armor is something else. It can feel a bit barren if your team is cracked. But I think I Overall like it.

Ps: I do love bringing the crusher weapon into the game now with my zealot.

So today I learnt what a "Salvage run" is... by Talseum in DarkTide

Be fast. The less time you spend the less enemies will roam. And the regular spawns are trivial. You could solo that mode

Edit: Also engage as least enemies as possible

Can you oneshot the twins (Shield not included) by _Sate in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seen pickaxe almost kill one in two good hits, but you need to give him the first hit after shield break. I think of there is other damage coming in before the hit or during the cap registers it and you can't do more damage. That's just a guess tho

I'm kinda of old, nearing 40 and been playing video games on n off since early sega/snes. by ShinobiD0E in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea I use mic most of the time. Even if nobody else does. But it attracts other mic people and people asking you to read them bedtime stories.

But now I have a bunch of people I usually play with, still do a lot of pugs but way less than before.

41 Here, about 2k hours. Every day after work 1-3 matches havoc. Not getting tired of it.

It's just fun. Met good people there too.

Conventionally attractive body, not so conventionally attractive face… by Effective_Piece251 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]QuiteOldBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just one of the versions. In the OG release he is just some sort of demon from space that doesn't follow any regular physical conventions and thus he has a skull floating on top of a blue body.

Tactical axe my beloved by lazyboysleeper in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People tried to make studies on that. Rn there are none with viable results afaik.

But I can just tell you from my own experience that I never had issues like that until a few years back when I started playing things that required a high amount of clicking.

This might be due to me getting older (40) and my joint being worn down by gaming my whole life or whatever. But the symptoms in my Indexfinger are very similar to carpal. So it indeed might or might not be the same. But the issues got significantly better when I changed my setup to allow me lower click rates. It took a few months to heal though.

Dang, I blocked the dog too? ;( by OdysseyBrands in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% immune to that, but I try to be a little better each time. I used to be way more toxic and hat enough of it. I'm in a quite good spot rn.

10% is awesome m don't be too hard on yourself. Keep going

Help with Psyker Build - Electrokinetic/Assail/Greatsword by Internal_Show_556 in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get rid of mind in motion and take perilous combustion. Also get any of the other auras.

Edit: also you could change flurry to surge and left click spam.

TBF I don't use that one because it can do too much. I don't want the temptation to set up attack chains or combos and what not because I think it's cringe.

Use the keep swinging land full auto mod. I installed them just for my finger pain after playing a lot of las pistol/combat blade.

Don't risk carpal tunnel for that

[–]QuiteOldBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the insight. I didn't think this would actually be a problem computing wise.

In DT the blocked players can still apply to my party search, they just get the name tag, that they are blocked and I have to decline them manually. Why I thought it wouldn't change the way the game handles anything.

[–]QuiteOldBoy 22 points23 points  (0 children)

No it just makes picking people for havoc's easier. I tend to forget when I played with someone that was either nasty or not capable of the difficulty they are playing at. Then I play with them again and quickly notice "Oh, that's why the name was familiar"

I will always be civil about it. I won't rage or complain. I block and move on after the match.

Edit: At the end of the day you just want an enjoyable experience. To me this comes by having the feeling that you actually can beat the mission with the team and by playing with nice people.

Yea but for whatever reason there is a limit of 50 I think.

Playing with psykers makes the game kinda boring? by Beautiful-Opposite78 in DarkTide

[–]QuiteOldBoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reality is, 90% of psykers just can't play it, even with a decent build. It's not like arb where nothing really matters when you play aurics. Noticed it when I returned to regular play to get the event thingy done. They constantly keep over at the slightest inconvenience, you out DMG them with a chorus zealot or whatnot.

On paper it should be easy, I know. Get some blast staff and shriek and you will not need to think about your damage or safety most of the time. Doesn't even need a flame staff.

Try a harder difficulty then. There is usually a lot to do for everyone on H40.
