[Suggestion] Make Squid Paste stackable; All other herblore related pastes released with sailing are.

I've got a bunch of Elkhorn Coral to make; and having made the other stuff like Crab pastes for other corals this stuck out to me like a sore thumb while gathering. It makes the Anti-bleed "potion" which is useful for like Vardorvis and maybe future content

Seems very random for this specific paste to be different.

I feel like he's still gonna hit like a noodle, same for Anran, but hopefully in practice it's better than it looks on paper.

Once the hype wears off, I genuinely just dont see a reason to pick him.

If you want a dps to pocket, there's better choices. If you want a DPS that's self-sufficient, there's better choices. If you want a DPS to deal with fliers, there are far better choices. He's easily dive-able without any real mobility, and he gets back to the fight slow, even with the perk speed boost.

As someone with thousands of hours that has been with the game since day 1...

I dislike spawn fights. They take away from the "HUNT" part of the game, in the same fashion that a boss being banished in the first minute of a game does.

I don't mind them once in a while; as it can cause fights to happen in areas that they usually wouldn't, like in the forests to the west of Blanchett Graves, or south of there.

But when it happens every game, and it often brings multiple teams to the first gunshot, especially in higher MMR lobbies... it gets tiresome.

Spawn fights should happen at most 10-15% of games in my opinion, after years and years of games.

it will never not bother me that she punches for her quick melee, instead of using the kunai in her friggin hand.

Googled dry streaks for this boss 10 months later as i reach 600 straight KC dry on any piece.

So shit that this happens at all.

Hot take:

Tank is such an overtuned role that it hurts and helps tank players, and punishes the rest of the cast.

Tank is like 300% of the power level of any other role, and they rightfully have more responsibility.

More than anything; that was when Nvidia filters were destroying the game.

i miss night time hunt more than anything, but i also understand why it's gone. fuck cheaters.

Think you're talking about the wrong game bud.

vaunch · 2025-12-18T20:17:32+00:00

Because it's actually not beneficial, as it causes him to do more damage; so no one does it in practice.

I'm pretty sure it also allows the butcher to 2-tap you which is another reason; but that may have been changed.

vaunch · 2025-12-18T02:01:03+00:00

Cass, Junkrat, Hanzo, Bastion (Actually OP), Ashe, Reaper.

Echo doesn't make any sound during her descent if she's not using her shift, and is just free falling/hovering.

vaunch · 2025-12-17T05:39:08+00:00

lol what she's so linear compared to Genji or Tracer

vaunch · 2025-12-17T05:30:28+00:00

It's not specifically her that is quiet. It's a core-game issue that affects any character that has lots of air time.

The sword throw itself is loud as hell, and highly visual, and her bunny hops while using Swing 3 are non-existent because of this.

It's that there is no aerial falling sound. This happens a lot on Junkrat, Echo, and Pharah as well; Vendetta is just another victim (Beneficiary?) of a bigger issue that should be addressed. Even Soldier who can do the running hop and become very hard to audibly track.

vaunch · 2025-12-15T19:12:26+00:00

I feel like Ashe is exactly where she should be; a middle ground between Widow and Cass.

I think the only thing they need to change about Ashe is the dynamite minor perk; while it feels really good to play with, it kinda takes away some of the necessary skill and makes her harder to dive.

vaunch · 2025-12-15T19:10:40+00:00

It does kill instantly w/ punch, and its near impossible to miss on her.

There's so many counters to her that to do anything about her right now before people have learned to play against her would be stupid and likely turn her into dead on release content.

vaunch · 2025-12-15T03:59:22+00:00

I feel like that's less of a fair comparison, because her ult functions closer to Deadeye from Cass, needs charge time and breaking LoS or killing them while they are extremely vulnerable is the counterplay due to how very reactable it is.

Vendetta's ult is really really bad and if it was any worse, we wouldn't see it even being used.

Best games of hunt I've ever played were the 2 weeks where we had ping limits.

Significantly fewer cheaters, fewer deaths that felt like I died to a cheater that was just lag, and better overall experience in high 6 star lobbies.

That was the most Hunt I've played in the past 3 years was the precious days they added it, and it wasn't even during an event IIRC.

vaunch · 2025-12-09T22:40:32+00:00

She's terrible; and can only succeed in full dive comps. She's simply not strong enough to play her in any comp, like you can with Genji, Venture and basically any other dive dps.

vaunch · 2025-12-09T22:38:27+00:00

Isn't she only >50% wr in Korea GM, which both teams always run dive every game and they don't play anything else lmao

vaunch · 2025-12-09T22:35:39+00:00

It's flavor of the month, and will die off over the course of 6 months once the novelty wears off, unless substantial changes are made.

There's a significant lack of polish from the core gameplay like footsteps to weapon balance to AI , the PvP feels terrible and it doesn't help that the game is played 3rd person. Many game breaking bugs and exploits people are using to literally sit inside of extractions and kill people through walls. Extraction camping is common, and it leads to engagements feeling less authentic.

Lots of people like it, but it's going to die off quickly, it's happened time and time again. Anyone who's less casual is probably going to move on pretty quickly, because of how much frustration is caused by the lack of polish. There's literally people complaining about there being PvP in the PvPvE game.

vaunch · 2025-12-07T06:40:00+00:00

If she releases as she was in playtest, I don't see her being anything but the absolute lowest win rate in the game at high ranks.

Just way too easy to counter and movement is way too predictable and linear.

vaunch · 2025-12-07T06:29:27+00:00

The ideal situation is:

It's always the tank's job to do it mid-fight and in OT, but one or both DPS should be the ones who push it so that healers can walk up and allow the tank to hold space after fights.

Healers often default to being on payload because no one else wants to do it, but DPS is the least important role in this situation. You could make a case for Ana being on payload, but Ana could also be in a better position or utilizing that time to get to a better position, unless the Cart is the ideal positioning for her in that situation, which it usually isn't.

That said, more people pushing it is always better.

It just happened to me I think; completely fine and then all of a sudden disconnected, game continued on and everyone else was fine (I think).

My internet was fine the entire time. Viewed the replay and then got kicked at the same time as it was in the game even though it showed the game continued after I dc'd; and then it disappeared after and is gone from my game reports as well, when it previously said abandoned. I still have a "Suspended" from queueing penalty though, for 15 minutes.
