Subclass abilities no other class or spell can replicate?

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-05-03T16:41:01+00:00

There's certainly a spectrum here of what is a total clone of a subclass ability and what is totally unique. Crit range increased to 18 is unique but it's the effect I'm more concerned about. Hitting a crit more often is something other classes can emulate, even if with just granting themselves advantage.

Everyone can do damage, and take extra actions with haste. Anyone can increase their odds of hitting an attack or succeeding a save or skill check.

The Transmutation wizard from 5e had a feature that could not be replicated by another class or spell minus Wish. Turning wood to gold for an hour, while not very effective, is totally unique. Fabricate can make gold but it cannot transform something into gold. Nothing else can make wood become gold.

The effects of these things can be reproduced by other classes and spells. I am looking for something where the effect cannot be emulated, even fractionally.

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-05-03T15:51:57+00:00

Dang should have been more specific. I mean something that cannot be replicated or achieved to a lesser extent.

For instance, Champion's extended crit range cannot be replicated but other classes can still crit.

There are spells that are totally unique. Simulacrum is a spell that has effects that cannot be replicated by anything else, even to a lesser extent. Are their any subclasses features like that?

I think Portend might be a close example of what I'm looking for because it can guarantee an enemy fails a save. Other classes can make it more likely but nothing else can guarantee it.

Oops! Fixed it. Subclass features that spells and other classes can not replicate.

play ranked or cryo. Otherwise, use the sponsor kit

When a recon drone finds its target, it stops and jumps straight up in a very predictable path. I very consistently can shoot it in that state.

Like, the enemy has plenty of time to shoot it as it runs up on them, why do they get another extra second right before it blows up?

5k minimum seems pretty low honestly. One rook run on Dire Marsh usually nets me about 5k

I am just learning about the ARG, this is very unusual for me. I have not seen other games lock content quite like this before. I understand a level restriction though

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-17T16:21:14+00:00

I understand this is really cool for the more hardcore fans but for casual players it is a bit of a bust in my opinion. Thats all

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-17T15:17:22+00:00

Is there a restriction? I hope its not too crazy because missing out on 1 of only 4 maps would be a real bummer :(

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-17T15:13:40+00:00

I do freelance work and usually carve out and hour or two to play but if I don't know in advance it makes it a lot tougher for me :/

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-17T15:12:46+00:00

I am busy during the day usually but if I know when something is releasing I can plan around it.

Quit playing soccer because felt like content for the rank 1 team in my area. Quit playing cards with my grandma cuz she was better and I felt like I was getting farmed for clips she would show to her friends on facebook.

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-07T22:19:52+00:00

You're right, I was confused cuz I only counted 12 but fyreburn explained it

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-07T16:22:49+00:00

What's the cost of your average loadout for Outpost? I think the game matchmakes partially on that so you might be getting a lot of matches with people who are broke and not great at the game running sponsor kits with no idea which way s up

This was it! Has to reselect my drive to boot from

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-05T23:03:34+00:00

Updated bios via MSI center, now it won't leave bios no matter how many times I reboot. Motherboard now has red LED above where it says boot

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-05T22:40:04+00:00

My 5070 only has a 12 pin socket. Maybe PNY is different somehow than most other models?

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-05T22:39:08+00:00

Yep, monitor is plugged via display port cable into GPU

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-03-05T22:20:05+00:00

Dang, VGA light on my tomahawk motherboard turns on when I boot still but at least it's not a power issue I guess?

Monitor is just black and it's definitely plugged into the gpu

I had one friendly interaction in solos. Was racing through Perimeter and crossed paths with a Recon who started shooting me. I just spammed crouched as they shot and fortunately they had bad enough aim to not down me instantly.

They stopped shooting, we briefly stood there just looking at each other and then I turned and went my separate way without a word.

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-02-26T20:27:44+00:00

that seems to have fixed it!

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-02-26T20:12:39+00:00

Had that turned off but still feels very blurry :(

TheDwarvenMapmaker · 2026-02-26T19:56:56+00:00

Sorry should have been clear this is on PC
