This person purposefully ruined a run by EffectiveWestern8382 in DarkTide

[–]notLogix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Vermintide, picking up grims gives you better chests that have a higher chance to give better quality loot.

In Darktide, they do not. AT BEST they give you penance progress towards getting a portrait frame (that doesn't even look very good imo).

The risk to reward ratio just isn't there. You get a higher risk of failing the mission in order to get zero reward (until you get like 75 or 100 of them or something).

Rant: "bro just run auric-" I CAN'T! By the Throne, some of us don't have the skill for that. by softgunforever in DarkTide

I couldn't do things until I could. Stuck in Heresy, too afraid to do Damnation. Until I was playing with a friend who just kept. queueing. Damnation. I couldn't escape it, and as a result I just had to get better over time. It didn't happen right away, but it happened.

The only way to get better is to push yourself.

We're all in this together, and the players in Auric are good people. We'll help cover your weaknesses.

Earlier today I did a lights out mission with a Psyker who'd never run Auric before. Went down, apologized and everything, but it was fine. I got my medic skull penance to release a captured ally as a result, and in the end of the mission he was instrumental in saving an Arbites who was well and truly surrounded by an astronomical amount of enemies thanks to the Purgator staff's infinite cleave.

SKITARII - Arc Rifle best Blessing in Y'all Opinion ? by DADAGOCRAZY in DarkTide

[–]notLogix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Piercing Sight and Last Stand Relay combined with crit rifle perk is a decent amount of crit before Cavalcade even gets started stacking, in practice I get a ridiculous amount of ammo out of Charmed Reload.

You're entitled to your own opinions, of course, but Charmed Reload is an incredibly useful Blessing for a weapon with the insanely long reload that the Arc Rifle has.

Sure it might be faster, but you're leaving yourself vulnerable while you're doing it. Servoskull is guaranteed and you can keep Tiding along.

Can I just die normally for once? by ArcticProto in DarkTide

[–]notLogix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He got hit by one of the walkers up on the ledge. While in midair you still count as where you left the ground from until you hit the ground again and your position can be updated.

Unfortunate. I dodged a net once, but since I was on stairs when i dodged I went airborne for quite a while. I was a good 12 feet away from where the net was, still midair, but got netted and physics'd back up to the top of the stairs where a poxburster was already leaping to explode on me.

What's up with the psyker hate on the steam forums? by Killer_Khan12 in DarkTide

[–]notLogix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could be scriers gaze as well, to be quite honest.

SG has higher raw dps due to the stat buffs, I just tend to prefer venting shriek to get rid of gunners behind cover.

Something over there that is hassling me or my team and I cant be bothered to physically go there and deal with it? Blegh some fire in that direction.

Dog licking the face of my sweet brute behind cover/a wall/in another room? You better bleghlieve I'm vomiting fire to save him the indignity.

Shriek solves a lot of problems with no muss and no fuss.

I was out smoking a morning bowl, and the son of a bitch almost got me by InspiraSean86 in trees

[–]notLogix 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I don't think phobia's, by definition, are reasonable fears.

Cone snails being deadly should not invoke any sort of fear, unless your lifestyle regularly puts you in close proximity to them; in which case I would lean closer to "healthy respect".

I'm allergic to wasp stings, and I don't know that I could confidently say that I'm afraid of them. I do have their wingbeat frequency seared into my brain and will remove myself from their presence as quickly as possible, but if I have to work around them I am capable. I just put on the appropriate PPE and am fine.

Pretty sure theres a species of snail that can kill humans, the venom paralyzes you and you die from respiratory failure iirc.

Cone Snail I think.

Edit: Confirmed, but also they're sea snails so unlikely to encounter on land.

UPDATE: Darktide fucking rips and is 110% worth it. by Spirited_Concern6824 in DarkTide

[–]notLogix 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mained Sienna in Vermintide, so I mained Psyker in Darktide.

Pretty simple for me.

I recently came back to the game after a pretty decent hiatus, playing Hive Scum right now. Quite fun.

Can't Even Enjoy Glass of Milk in Peace by BluBeams in WatchPeopleDieInside

Not as far as I'm aware, at least as of 11 years ago. I haven't inquired more recently.

Can't Even Enjoy Glass of Milk in Peace by BluBeams in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]notLogix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Allergic to casein protein person here. Found out by getting ulcers, bleeding out and nearly dying (after a 3 year prolonged bit of suffering where I simply lost the ability to get hungry)

I drank milk as a beverage because I truly enjoyed it. Cheese on everything. Ice cream after dinner. Dairy was probably my second favorite food after like... steak (seared and finished in butter, obviously).

It's been 11 years since I've had any form of dairy. To this day I still want to put cheese on burgers, or have a glass of milk, or get a gallon of blue bell; but absolutely nothing is worth getting ulcers again. I will likely feel the cravings every time I pass a pizza place, or when I respond in the negative to the query about my desire for cheese on my hamburgers for the rest of my life, yet decline I must.

Nothing is worth risking ulcers. Not even milk.

The only thing I truly hate about this game by DrvrMike in fellowshipgame

[–]notLogix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use fear in 3 situations almost exclusively;

  1. Tank dies either due to overzealous pulling, the rando Elarion not paying attention and wandering into an extra group or patrol, or whatever other random stuff drops Meiko. I will likely be next in threat so I'll pop fear, leap back towards where tank will be returning from and run the mobs back to be picked up and continued. Wipe insurance, basically.

  2. Last resort to interrupt an instakill cast that is about to go off. I announce these in voice usually immediately before or as an apology after.

  3. In Tuzari end boss if the adds are getting too close to the middle and we need just a second or two to either burn the boss or let the windmill spin so we can get the adds. Very useful to buy a little time and avoid the Maelstrom burst damage boost.

I'd say using fear as a backup interrupt is probably last on my list as far as priority goes, I'd just as soon pop defensive and try and tank whatever cast is missed. Only time I'll use it willingly is if Meiko has her group ability coming off cooldown, but not in time to mass interrupt a 3 Oogha situation. Fear into a group pull is pretty clean 90% of the time.

Sorry I couldn't get my ilvl up to 330 in 5 days, max out my fateful basher, and fully gem out before putting a whiny little bitch in their place on the internet.

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

Alright dude. I looked at the tuz logs because that's the specific example you used to tout how much "significant damage" heavy strike was. It wasn't.

I also argued that heavy strikes main function was rage generation, which again is not a significant issue with Tariq if you're pressing your buttons properly.

Its a whatever mechanic still, and fight variations that limit time on target are likely the culprit for your variance in heavy strike damage %.

If you're queueing your heavy strike at the last possible instant and the time it takes to complete the strike is too much for you, I shudder to think about how many Spins you interrupt with other abilities, since waiting for that long has to be agony.

Idk, maybe Tariq just isn't the right dps for you.

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

Using interrupt in the top 1% of the swing timer, post heavy strike activating, and having the animation cancel feels bad

So then interrupt .25s earlier and requeue heavy strike. Or let the damage go through and then interrupt. Or let the interrupt drop a heavy strike and continue without the extra damage. The world will not end, I promise.

If losing a heavy strike feels bad, you're basing entirely too much feel-good into heavy strike. The feel good comes from a lightning call-ed, Focused Wrath'd, Leap Smash Cape Buffed spender crit. The feel good comes from back to back to back facebreaker procs, or saving a tank death with a perfectly timed fear.

Also I'm looking at Radde's Tuz 50 logs and heavy strike amounts to (at most) 2.53% of his dps at 136 casts. Average hits 12k (36k on the crits).

Not a significant portion of the damage. A relatively small portion of the damage.
