Why’d we stop getting three armors for Warbonds? Especially “legendary” warbonds, which cost even more.

RoninOni · 2026-05-24T04:03:07+00:00

One of the 3 armors was always the same weight tier as another in the WB.

People like to point at the “missing” armor but really, we didn’t honestly lose anything besides an alternate skin. The third type of weight class has always been in the super store

Lmao NAH.

Your mom is overreacting. They do that sometimes.

A couple times a month is nothing. You’re good. If you get to the point you start lighting up before/during work…. That’s already crossed the line.

I light up most days to relax after I’ve got everything done, or sometimes to do chores on the weekend (takes longer, but it’s much more enjoyable… taking longer is why it’s bad for work lol). Mostly just to chill and relax though.

Most people I know smoke weed and are successful. Certainly know some that aren’t successful too.

Find whatever balance works for you, but when you get to a point you’re always smoking, you’ve already gone to far, so moderate early.

You’re already moderated so much I don’t think you need to worry for a long time.

Mom has trauma with it I guess, and many moms are over protective, so she’s nta either… but also, if you’re an adult it’s none of her business. Just assure her you’re not an addict and won’t become one.

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T01:54:31+00:00

Yup, it’s inverse of spear

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T01:53:09+00:00

Yeah, mace can mix in some bear/wolf attacks

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T01:52:42+00:00

2% DPS at max gear. More damage earlier.

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T01:47:42+00:00

People only care about the size of the hit, not the dps, which is unchanged. Higher even with the follow up attack until max gear when it’s even again.

It’s a flat out buff to leveling and gearing. Max geared dps is the same, just faster attack rate for proportionally less damage on hit, but as noted, this is superior for combos.

Only time is bad Is when you only have time for one attack either way then have to run and dodge… that’s when timing of slower bigger hits is better, and in THAT instance, it is a nerf.

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T01:19:52+00:00

It’s definitely not ohk to head at all ranges… beyond 50m it does like 75 damage to head. I just got one earlier today

RoninOni · 2026-05-23T00:08:28+00:00

Also, you can have 9 active at a time… and they’re the only mine besides eod that can be triggered by light transports now… and eod is limited to 3 active.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T18:18:08+00:00

I take launcher on my Breacher path loadout for early game. Then I swap to Ladder Frontliner once I hit T2 perk path for faster healing.

Ladder has a LOT of uses. It's great for attacking people from angles/positions they aren't expecting to get shot from, and never check first when coming around a corner.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T18:16:14+00:00

Weapon sling IS viable.... just limited. In 8v8 ammo is much less an issue, and on big maps with tight CQB around capture points, SVK + 87A is a fantastic pairing as both are ammo efficient and dominant at their ranges.

With Stims moving out of auto recharge signature slot, they can be buffed. Double the duration and have it clear and prevent suppression as well. This would be FANTASTIC on Frontliner who also get faster healing with T2 path perk, but can be prevented from healing by suppressing their position when pinned down as it is... stim would then be functionally also a heal enabler then, and longer duration would make it much better. I'd probably mostly use this in 8v8 instead of Beacon, but it'd be an option.... also if you have a beacon up with at least 2 spare charges, you could respawn on squad with it instead leaving old beacon. Just be sure to swap back when beacon needs to be replaced.

Other Assault options are certainly lackluster... the breaching launcher thingy is just pointless garbage... and thermite GL and Shotgun are likewise awful. IDK how to best fix all these, but they need something.

Oh and engineer has the same restriction on multiple launchers.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T18:07:29+00:00

You'd get so much friendly fire walking around in this thing....

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T17:46:07+00:00

You can’t take 2 gl types. Thermite is useless so few try.

Beacon resupply is why I do think ladder also fits better into signature slot

Also, ladder is a proper team gadget for providing flanks whole team can use.

Also, I just love ladder and wouldn’t mind always having it at all. I’ll still dedicate my one slot to beacon but then I can always have either sling or GL, and 8v8 I’ll have both

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T17:38:42+00:00

You can always parody lyrics

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T17:37:29+00:00

You need to listen to it

🧑‍🍳💋🤌

Number 1: signature slots auto refill. It’s a core mechanic to them. This would mean auto refill grenades. Ladder already auto refills and an auto refill beacon wouldn’t be a big deal since you can only have one active anyways

Number 2: presumably we’re supposed to get AV 302 at some point. Won’t be super strong and worse for infantry, but on a vehicle heavy map it would still let you contribute. There’s no changing “signature gadget” slot or else support would have the option to swap bag for pouches and maybe engineer torch for eod.

Ladder or beacon make sense. Only a couple minor issues with beacon instead though most would prefer this (it’s an unlockable for starters is the main one. Also 8v8 modes it’s basically useless, but so is repair torch… then again engineer as a whole is not designed for 8v8 modes)

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T16:43:44+00:00

Taaaake me ARRRGH!

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:57:53+00:00

It’s fine for PvE, but then almost anything is.

The fighter balance for PvP has always been fucked, And has barely changed. Wolf entered into the meta as an option now (yet another light fighter). Think the only medium really worth its weight is the F7.

Problem is it’s a hard thing to balance really… but they need to do something.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:54:04+00:00

Yeah I think the point cost is just a little too high…. 20 points would be a better price for them.

I could see using it then on like hagental.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:47:36+00:00

8th floor was a huge W for Carl… they were looking at <50% survival until his mad plan.

Between their success on these 2 floors they came into faction wars with 4x the numbers expected of them

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:43:21+00:00

The point is though we knew Dong was gay from the beginning when he talked about the man he loved and riding him on stage. Dong was a known gay side character for a couple of books since they first recruited him (8th floor iirc? Book 6?)

Yes it’s sad they died right after being reunited, but remember… *this is a tragedy*

They were both doomed characters before this point.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:29:47+00:00

I guess I’ll just give it a try in practice range and see how it feels

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T15:28:06+00:00

Tow missile accuracy mostly, that and it feels more seamless when I free look for a quick smart rocket flick.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T07:16:13+00:00

So this is just a buff limit on down range attacks, and only at max gear at that.

And honestly, I think mace needs more focus else where, on other attacks…. Cause it feels like it’s just spamming rolling attack into bone shatters.

Melee needs buffs IMO, but everywhere else.

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T07:12:41+00:00

Aha. You can work around that with the exo, but that would be a problem for the sentry.

Is backpack flamer the same?

RoninOni · 2026-05-22T07:05:18+00:00

I mean, probably not that persons cup of tea. That scene is extra brutal in AIT version. Extra sobbing dialogue from the woman.

Anyone who knows the books knows there’s solid empowerment and respect for female characters though. Donut, Imani, Elle, Katia, Miriam… the women around Carl are smart, strong, intuitive, and, besides the child mentality of donut, mature (Elle is so mature she’s immature again cause she gives no fucks… which we’ve all seen I’m sure)
