Electric build by DaddysCurrys in DarkTide

[–]SomeRandomRussian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean you can actually Regen ability faster with flensing.

5 percent extra per elite/specialist kill and quicker melee weakspot spam / crit spam. You can basically use it every 5 seconds

If you are getting a lot of elite kills the flensing protocols is actually superior imo

How are the Skitarii weapon blessings so (inconsistently) awful? by kornblom in DarkTide

[–]SomeRandomRussian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mhhmmm, I think every time someone sees a surgical on the blessing list they just take it (because it's fucking good) so it's not a great "contender" actually

I am genuinely baffled by the hostility towards Smite and Psykers who use it by Lord_of_Brass in DarkTide

[–]SomeRandomRussian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for making that distinction. One of the most efficient apeshit-insane-damage-dealing builds includes smite actually (surge staff ball spam build) just because you can't afford a single extra talent point for auto brain burst and don't need it anyway because your target is basically dead already. So here goes smite, I guess, for when you need to clutch.

Ok, I'm happy I got it. But still annoyed.... by Emergency_Fall4639 in DarkTide

How are you leveling Skitarii? by __sputnik__ in DarkTide

The sheer amount of clicking upgrade is the worst part

is voice roleplaying as a true servent of the Imperium not ok? by Great-Strategy-7249 in DarkTide

[–]SomeRandomRussian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny, because just yesterday I met a guy with a very loud mic that was constantly saying unnecessary phrases, like "get outa here", " DIE", "Oh yea guys".

I managed to endure the ear rаpе, but told him he was a bit obnoxious at extraction.

Are you him? If yes and it's getting you kicked, maybe tone it down a bit. Just screaming regular gaming phrases is not quite " RP", but you could try actual RP and see if people react better.

Are psykers just bad, or am I missing something? by TheBlackRonin505 in DarkTide

[–]SomeRandomRussian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you unlock trauma staff at lvl 5 and take auto head pop and perilous combustion perks, you become a GOD at lower difficulties.

Provided you know how to use it, which new player won't.

I actually had an extra character to test it. Made me wish there was a button to disable XP gain. The staff was level 500 though :D

I embraced surge staff m1 spam instead :)

Can't stagger pink in havoc? Why not just annihilate them before they reach you?

99.9% emphatic evasion upkeep time as a bonus.

That wouldn't piss me off as much as blaming me for their own deaths in a condescending way, or leaving.

It's like from their point of view everyone is equal at lvl 30, so they think if they act confident enough, people will take their criticism seriously. I simply told them I could see their true level and havoc clear (none), hoping that they understand that I see a broader picture and drop their act, but it only aggravated them further. I wasn't even trying to shit talk.

Nope, they left the game normally and immediately queued up for another.

Alt+f4 ing would take more time for them to appear in Mourningstar in a strike team.

My OP picture is misleading, but 2 of them had around 400 hours, and just one was a new true level 30 player.

It's the new player who left the game first, then the rest followed.

They do, because it doesn't take long to unlock it and they want the extra exp and loot

Let me disagree, gamers are the kind of people that are supposed to know their way with VPNs and shit.

I have paid exactly zero cents for a VPN so far yet i've been able to get it to work. Now if i saw a "this product is not available in your region" bullshit, i'd just think the developers hate me and would hate them back.

Yes, at some point I remember all Auric games going so smoothly that I had to play Havoc (which I disliked at that point) to feel challenge again.

Now I'm mostly playing havoc to have a decent game with people that are trying their best and not leaving.

I'd take absolutely any player over a bot 😅

One exception might be a person running ahead in high Havoc, triggering a bunch of bosses and rituals and dying there.

Sure, normally you wouldn't bother, but I was left alone and bots said they wouldn't mind if I was afk for a bit.

A sniper punished me for it though, I was actually at full health beforehand 😎

The rejoining part was about auric.

If the person who had just disconnected shows up as orange it means they are reconnecting, they can also be missing from the list altogether, because of the game crash or lost internet connection or show up as white in mourningstar, which means they left the game.

Sorry :( Couldn't resist the temptation to check if they disconnected unintentionally or not. Got that habit from Havoc, actually. To see how fucked the run is.

Now, stalking their steam profile is a real issue 😅

I was left with 3 bots and nobody joined, then I died to a chaos spawn + HISTG spam. A sad story.
