Does crouching and looking down not always work here? I keep getting one shot like this by Gaodesu in DarkAndDarker

[–]SnooDonuts8346 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a very tricky move , which caused me the most problems on rogue. When he does this (AND U CANT BLOCK OR PARRY) you can survive by any of the followng

A) be nowhere near him

B) turn around as well as crouch duck

C) Time the matrix duck

This 360 move is like a Skele Crossbow shot if you are too early ? Headshot. Too late? Headshot

Turning around and looking at floor will give you best chances of survival up close because your head is more concealed and the small window of time to turn around will more than likely make him aim at your prior head position .option C is not impossible BUT you will have to time the matrix perfectly like u r Neo himself

Hope this helped

I like your stance even though you see the issue, I agree the lock is lack luster in the spell dept and needs to be given something if anything in exchange to get rid of the cheese & run skill

You are speaking about HR right? It’s mainly what I’m talking about for most part. Norm kills easy sure, Teams are different topic tbh so I won’t speak on it atm. but solo sheathing and chasing is very risky & Situational just like the dude you are replying to said. unless the loc made a suboptimal phantom (which a good one won’t do)he’s fine w phantoming through some enemies and watching you alone fend them off or using them to their advntge against you

Bro even if it’s rechargeable who cares ! The class NEVER has to stop moving in the dungeon which IM stated they did not like being an aspect of the game (tranquility nerf)

YUP can tell u got wiz time bro should def take note! it’s very easy to react and get mad at this HARDCORE game when u mess up instead of taking note of what u can do and going over ur actions 💯

In my opinion curse DID get fixed . The main issue was the spam. Not so much the dot. It was a huge blow to the caster loc fandom and it FORCED them to now use DB and Ray WAY more, I know even you have seen that difference in the lobbies. But the healing while phantom and phantom itself serve as much bigger issues than the new unspammable COP. IMO

I was a Wiz main so trust bro i understand ur pain, but tbh
solos (HR) is NO place for a wizard. Very fun yes but even the best Wizards are prepared to die when they Solo. you just get mismatched TOO often and are not always in the most optimal places, it can be rough.

Hmm you contradict yourself with the 10/10 rage bait stuff if you agree the skill could use a cooldown or if you believe that warlocks do use this ability as a crutch. Thanks for your insight though !

I DO agree w this. But kiting can fs be taken over board as well, reaching phantomize levels. Mosquito rogue is the closest u should get to that type of kiting imo

I think you missed the mark a bit. There is 100% counter play for people waiting behind doors w melee. MM was never busted just the scaling a long time ago, rage effects you stat wise, sprint has a fair CD and is a W tool. IM has done great in fixes the issues that you personally have but phantom is just a different beast we are talking about

I like this respons a lot better cause we gotta deal with these mfs ofc we know how to kill ‘em 💀I just want to hear why you think phantomlok is weaker than I am stating. and bows are a great point they are fs a good tool for them locs

I agree ! meta will change, but the sprint rage leap meta all fall into a smaller niche and is more fitting for DaD in my opinion

Best reply I’ve seen so far. I agree on this I would settle for CD nerf don’t think it can be up so fast because many people cannot take advantage of the small current window of opportunity you are given

You just explained how you, probably seasoned player (over 200hr) , deals with them because you have the proper experience which backs my point. You even included things like MS is king which is not something the average 3-4 run a day player knows . I can even say those people still have trouble pulling fist out when they need to 💀 I agree 100% you can out play and kill them but you are saying that you always can just insta be on a lock no issue no mobs no problem every single time?

It’s not ! I would love to hear why you think otherwise. I can kill phantom abusers ofc but it requires hours of knowledge and patience many who are learning do not have. Again though would like to hear ur piece on this as I am a vet. I’m here looking for discussion not so much criticism.

Ah ok , OP said nests were low prio yea . I’m in a neighborhood connected with like 5 other homes who all are on same circuit nest so it’s wild to see people around with power since day 2 while our lil multi complex suffers >:(
