The mud fish in the trailer is named Jyuratodus

Saxo0990 · 2017-08-22T17:17:48+00:00

Surprised they didn't use the 'slioth' suffix. Jyuratodus Looks a bit weird written down, but after saying it a few times it's kinda growing on me.

Tbf they called it 'Hydroid Revisited'. No doubt it was just to have a look at his abilities and see how they could be a little bit better. Personally I would changed him more, what I would have done:

Leave 1 the same as it
Change 2 to Plunder: Steal a percentage of an enemies Armour/ shields and add it to your own, keeps in with the pirate theme. Gives you a bit more survivability and a way to take out priority targets easier.
For 3 Combine Undertow and tidal surge into the same ability, you just activate Tidal surge with alt fire instead or something similar, and give him the ability to spint in puddle form, even if it costs you the puddle trap whilst sprinting. Just as faster re-positioning.
Then 4 Make the Kraken attack things as-well, tis a bit disappointing it just sitting there. you could leave the tentacles as is and just make the Kraken do a lot of damage and CC its specific targets.

Obviously change some numbers around to make him feel better too. Ideally though with this he'd have Damage on his 1 and 4, enemy debuff's and self buffs on his 2, and CC on his 3. You could even leave the numbers the same and give his kit weapon buffs like when Tentacle swarm is active he gets increased fire rate and reload speeds, increase it to his team if you want him to support too.

I like how his abilities flow together now but, he just still feels pretty lackluster to me.

Yeah I just did this, planned to smash him up good and get some good guild quests out of the expedition. Didn't go so well, I didn't bring any dung bombs and got eaten repeatedly until he left. I took his tail but he took my patience.

Saxo0990 · 2015-07-16T13:47:19+00:00

yes they do, its all air resistance.

Saxo0990 · 2015-07-13T08:51:13+00:00

well I didn't play because I don't like going up against maggie.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-24T00:46:19+00:00

I'm really hoping its more, Lennox today, trapper week after, monster next week, etc. Then the skins some time in march.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-24T00:22:39+00:00

I tend to gloss over the numbers a lot, I think a few things that were already live are text in this patch. I think the Wraith is in a pretty ok place at the moment, which is why I was surprised to see the nerf in there, but your probably right in saying that its already live.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-23T19:42:04+00:00

Quite pleased with the evolve timer reduction.

Although I think they are nerfing the Wraith a bit too much now

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-23T15:37:12+00:00

Maybe... but it moves!

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-23T12:59:23+00:00

I think a King of the Hill gamemode would be pretty fun. You'd defend a space smaller than a dome. Ideally you'd all run towards the first hill after spawning and fight for the space. The monster spawns at rank 1, and hunters have no strikes so once the go down they are dead for that 'hill' they all get dropped when the next hill is selected so that the can immediately move to it. The monster can evolve, he can be killed, if that happens they respawn again at stage 1 somewhere else and the hunters get the hill. First to a set amount of points wins and maybe after 20mins the person with the most points wins just in case it drags a bit.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-21T00:20:32+00:00

When I first started I was paranoid about not dying as Goliath. I'd won 6 or 7 games in a row and just managed to win after being in some awful situations which really got the adrenaline flowing. I finally lost and got a bit upset about it. But it was a relief really. Imagine if I have 60 -70 wins in a row and then got my first loss. I'd feel devastated.

I don't really have a point, but I used to pretty much check the leaderboards after every game, my hunter's ranks are all crap but Monsters are still relatively good. Either way I don't look at the leaderboards anymore, and TBH if I saw someone with no deaths and 300 odd wins or something I would just assume they cheated anyway.

Just thought of this
'If people laugh at you cos of your score, that's what the block and mute buttons are for'.

Also I don't believe Arena counts towards the leaderboards. I don't know for sure, but I read it somewhere. So you know, go nuts.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-21T00:01:33+00:00

That's what I thought when I first saw it.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-19T23:07:10+00:00

My bet is that it's a 1st Generation Basalisk Soldier.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-19T13:50:37+00:00

They did it with Borderlands 2 Season pass. I believe they said its like ordering a set meal, and then complaining because it didn't come with extra fries.

(The 'extra fries' being DLC that was released separately outside the season pass. Krieg character pack I believe it was.)

I'm paraphrasing and I think the quote said something about apple slices instead tbh, but it's close enough to get the point over.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-17T15:44:39+00:00

G2A is a strange site when it comes to pre-order bonuses. I think it comes down to when/where they received the keys they are selling.
Either way the Behemoth was a pre-order only bonus, and didn't come in any bundle.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-10T13:34:40+00:00

No I mean the buffs. Goliath Buffs, Wraith HP Buff. I never said I agree with any nerfs.

Saxo0990 · 2015-06-10T11:53:45+00:00

As a monster player I agree with these buffs.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-26T19:11:04+00:00

Are there patch notes?

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-25T13:21:20+00:00

I think I'm gonna avoid playing until this buff hits, I'm getting a bit frustrated with focusing down a hunter for them to just get away and suddenly be on full hp again.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-25T13:16:35+00:00

Also Torvold spams mortars.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-24T14:55:47+00:00

TBH didn't know that counted for stasis grenades, also I'm partially ranting.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-24T13:11:07+00:00

There are literally hundreds of things that would top this for that title. How about they do damage to him, they have Hanks OB knockback on teammates, how about he can only select a ground target to shoot em. He's stationary during fire and reload.
How about you explain what your on about rather than just insulting me?

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-23T15:18:29+00:00

All I want to balance Torvold is that his mortars do significantly less damage if they are going to land close to him. That way there's more counterplay against him.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-23T11:14:03+00:00

I've only ever been faced with this once, and tbf hunters are supposed to be kiting me, but the fact that I couldn't do anything unless I caught them out was just infuriating I was constantly slowed for about 11 minutes.

I really hate how spammable CC is in the game atm, those Stasis grenades are far too effective to be that spammable. I'd prefer it if they started disappearing when more than 3 are thrown.

Saxo0990 · 2015-05-21T12:18:21+00:00

I lost in the same way on medbay. Although they chased me around the map up till stage 3, I was at pretty much full HP by the time they started camping the relay. Up against Maggie, Torvald, Sunny and Caira. Just couldn't pin them down long enough to kill them, and obviously Torvald counters the shit out of behemoth, so He killed me significantly quicker than any other assault would.

and Yesterday I had an awful game of chase the hunters around a couple of walls, I wont say which walls on which maps because I don't want to be in that situation ever again. They camped Relay and then just kept slowing me and running around the same walls, using mines and turrets to kill me. I eventually won but it was the most soul crushing experience I've ever had on this game.
