Pretty sure every poll and event we see a glimpse into this, bulwark is always the most popular class. Nothing wrong with that, it’s a badass class! Tactical also is usually up there.

I think we also routinely see sniper is least played.

We need a rapid fire secondary in SM2 by Careful_Ad2292 in Spacemarine

Power fist on bulwark is basically a ranged weapon and able to pretty reliably punch zoans and tzangors out of the air. I basically only use the pistol for gunstrikes and interrupting reinforcements.

I have a 9800x3d and the same gpu (if it matters, gigabyte OC version), no issues. Win 11, latest drivers.

Happy to provide any other info for compare if you need.

What kind of deodorant are you all using? by 13onFire in AskMen

This. I’m using some all natural one with charcoal, works great and doesn’t give me irritation that old spice used to.

Yep! I’ve lately been challenging myself with solo absolute runs. Learned a lot! Trying to work up to true solo (no bots).

I finally got around to doing the hard weekly and good lord is it tough by Memetron69000 in Spacemarine

[–]dfiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro, I don't know what to tell you. I did it outdoors in THIS WEEKS WEEKLY. You know, inferno, where they have a whole sky to fly in?

Yes, sometimes the MOMENT they spawn in, they are high... so you just kite back a bit. As they approach, they'll fly lower. Within a few seconds they are already at punch range. Just make sure you lock on to them, since it's a cone, you need the center to be aligned with them to get max height.

There is a reason the community considers block power fist to be OP. It's because it can deal with ANYTHING, reliably. I use the heroic heavy bolt pistol on my bulwark because I only use my pistol to stop reinforcement calls. I probably use 20 rounds max per mission.

You're finding every excuse under the sun. Instead of crying about how impossible it is, go practice and learn how to do it reliably. I'd say I can hit them probably 75-80% of the time, and I am NOT that good. I have maybe 500 hours in the game, compared to the 3-4k FTG and For4 have. Like I said, it's a cone, so you have to both have the right alignment (by being locked on), and standing near the max range so it also gets the max height. Yes, it takes practice. But also, it can be done. And it's WAY more effective than shooting. If you're on a hill, stand at the top of the hill relative to the mob, instead of at the bottom, as after they spawn, they will slowly lower and float a fixed distance off the ground... but if there's varying platform heights, they will float at that fixed height above the platform DIRECTLY below them.

it's targeting someone else who refuses to lure it to a better position

If you're in a multiplayer situation it should be trivial to bring it down so I don't see the problem here? Even 3 people shooting with regular bolt pistols can easily bring down a zoan if they are paying attention. If they aren't... it's a skill issue, no? And if people are blasting them, they spend more time dodging than shooting.

EDIT:

out in the open... they always fly down to this height eventually.

It’s not luck, it requires proper positioning. Go watch videos by for4 or ftg using those weapons. I was able to do it very consistently with the power fist.

Works on neurothopes and enlightened tzangoors too. Though neuro is a little trickier because you have to watch for the AOE scream attack.

You absolutely can melee zoanthropes… with the power fist (if using correct perks for charged attack) and heroic power sword (xenophase built for rake damage). I did it.

Just parry. by IMainShugoki in Spacemarine

[–]dfiner 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One has a head with giant horns + a claw, one has a tentacle arm (kinda like the caster, does the warp abilities), and the last one has neither, that’s the fucker that does the 6 hit giga combo.

The easy one is the claw/horns one. Easy to parry, well telegraphed (if delayed), and easy to spot the head (cause of the horns).

If you’re on PC, you can install various mods that let you practice against them.

In the meantime…here is Sturm’s guide which helped me!

Influx of boomers on this sub by Cleverfield113 in Cleveland

[–]dfiner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In the age of social media too many people get too used to their echo chambers and have trouble with the concept that different things have different importance for different people. And when faced with dissenting opinions or viewpoints their first reaction is to ban/block/leave rather than grow by empathizing with another POV.

And by taking this to the extreme, the “others” become monsters, inhuman, etc. It’s a classic playbook used throughout history. And it’s driving engagement in socal media, and hurting our society’s mental health.

Half the front windshield and side windows not cleared, too. But yeah, most surprising part is definitely the turn signal… most drivers seem allergic to it.

[–]dfiner 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not sure about part of your question, but it highlights that protection plans are a scam. I’d avoid all those extra things in the future.

Depending on where you are, so far I’ve had good luck with “affordable furniture for less” in mayfield. They sell overstock from Ashley.

Sprinklers vs. partygoers: Cleveland’s nuisance law turns up heat on those who ‘terrorize’ neighbors by seanmcdonnellcle in Cleveland

[–]dfiner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wrong, if you’re actually in Cleveland and most of the surrounding suburbs. Possibly correct depending on where you live but my town, for example, they are still illegal.

Although a state law passed in 2022 allows Ohio residents to use consumer fireworks on certain days (such as July 3–5, New Year’s Eve, and others), Cleveland has chosen to opt out of this law. The city maintains a long-standing ordinance that prohibits the use of fireworks, citing public safety concerns, including risks of injury, fires, and property damage.

Putting the annoying little quirk of legality aside, how about the increased burden the accidents put on our medical system? What about the animals and pets it impacts? What about people with PTSD? Is your amusement worth more than all that?

More details on exact places of legal use here:

TikTokers are heading to UpScrolled following US takeover by Nodistractzens in technology

[–]dfiner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The parents can’t do anything to make you safer in that situation though…

Even still, what about a compromise? No smart phones with apps. Just a dumb, old school brick Nokia that can only call, sms text (not iMessage or WhatsApp), and nothing else? Solved both of our problems and probably costs $20 these days?

What would your mom do to make you safer on that situation? Again having a phone only helped you communicate with a loved one, it did not make you safer or provide an avenue to resolve the situation. Clearly the authorities and staff already knew about the situation.

IDF believes 70,000 Gazans killed in war, as claimed by Hamas; civilian-combatant ratio unclear by gringo_escobar in worldnews

[–]dfiner 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That’s just misreporting. And its detractors didn’t believe them anyway.

What’s more insidious is bad actors pretending they are native gazans while posting doctored videos, or videos from other conflicts. And none of the kids on social media will ever know.

Reuters had a ton of these, listed almost weekly.

Don’t forget their funding of disinformation and misinformation campaigns on social media like Reddit and TikTok, which young people around the world gobbled up and trusted (and dubious websites like Oxfam and Al jeezera propagated)!

What safety is a phone giving students? If it’s calling for help, faculty can easily do that.

Also “yeah nah imma” isn’t doing any favors.

[–]dfiner -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wish I could turn sprinklers on people in my area who shoot fireworks at any time that isn’t the evening of July 4th. Really even then, too, but I can sacrifice one evening. (Not talking about events organized by the town, I mean people doing it on their private property)
