Battle Wizard with Flamestorm staff and mace. Whip out the low heat half a second full charge blast to open up, burn 'em down some more, bash the stragglers around, teleport away and do it all again to the next group.

There will be more nonsense, like stormfiends that shoot gutter runners.

good job at not fixing the links. how hard is it to add literally two spaces before a dash?

Any tricks for convocation of decay finale?
On legend it's just either >spread out and get fucked by slaverat pokes that spawn around you 24/7 and trickle in
or >stick together and get fucked up by one of the 5 gasrats that inevitably spawn and instathrow from the lower ring
Evan Stewart
i was hoping for something like the mod framework in vt1 that fixed various things. the bot improvement for example, though it made the bots fucking superhuman
Nicholas Jones
Have 3 people stand pilars and one inside the circle, preferably the tankiest. Having people on the pillars fucks with the enemy AI and it gets considerably easier to deal with them.
Easton Anderson
> mfw rangers bomb/potion drops are replaced with loot dice. Depends on what nonsense you're talking about. Mods will certainly fix some of it, like the stupid priority on Beamstaff and salts VXB. Summon a great unclean one. Thanks man.
I suppose the slow and safe way would be, group together and bail out of the circle each time you hear a gasrat spawn. Kill-kill, then move back in.
Carson Garcia
So how big of a jump is it from Champ to Legend? Is it necessary for me to switch from non-meta careers like Zealot and Unchained to meta ones like BH and pyro?

> We are not 100% sure yet when the change will go live on the main game and will have to make a call if it's before easter or not tomorrow as well as are contemplating putting this on a beta branch. Lazy swedes are backpedaling and saying it might not be before easter. I fucking told you lads. > w-w-we are playtesting the version that TOTALLY WORKS guys really it works on our machines
Know how many targets each swing hits, what hits are the most powerful and don't panic The later is easier said than done

I'm sorry for you/10

alright/10 I prefer the base one to be honest

If you scrap it you get 20 scrap, 10 of green/blue dust and 5 orange I'd rather have 5 orange dust than that shitty hat.
Sebastian Ross
I bet they got cold feet after being hit by a wave of negativity when the community learned of the broken state of the game

I stand by my statement that the only hat I'd use is the cute RV cap
Adrian Myers
Is there a compliation of cosmetics?
Owen Scott
as far as im aware, theyre implementing an "anything goes server" and another for "approved mods". i'm hoping actually good fixes are able to be made by the community and approved by fatshark. shit like leeches actually having their audioqueue and no more fucking double elite patrols to fuck your ass raw, since devs dont seem to be able to fix spawns
Nicholas Sullivan
I still can't fathom how retards get constantly hit by beam. >Hold beam consistently, do not move it all >Someone actually jumps up and clips into the beam >Complains about FF

They fucking deserve every single bit of negativity thrown at them. How do you not realize 500k players are playing an entirely different game? this shit went on for 20 days. I even played with a dev on a pub game, so they do play the release version of the game. I don't buy their bullshit story of "lol we didn't realize" I think they were hoping nobody realized about the bugs for long enough to give them time to come up with a complete solution, which is part of why the game feeds you so little info. Except autistic modders went ahead and posted this for the entire community to see and now everyone is pissed off
Basics for fighting multiple opponents in melee combat (transcending all video games and gaming in general) 101; Always be backpedaling. Play it safe. Block when you can, avoid when you can, take as few hits as possible while you look for patterns in enemy attacks that you can take advantage of to sneak a strike into. When you strike, DO NOT GET GREEDY. Take what you're guaranteed to get while remaining safe and only what you're guaranteed to get. Remember to keep backpedaling. Serioulsy don't stop backpedaling. Use the enviroment to your advantage. Force enemies to climb towards you, jump towards you, whatever you can do to encourage them into unsafe footing. Be patient. You're probably going to lose anyway, drawing their victory out just increases your chances of not losing. Wherever possible, when facing a superior force, do what the Spartans did at Thessaly. Bottleneck your opponents to decrease the effectiveness of their numbers.
So I guess now is the time to try to clear Legend Skittergate right? ugh
hard enough to find pubs who don't all suicide at the start (and I don't really blame them from a red farming perspective)
Robert Brown
How do you get up there?
Gabriel Cooper
Got the same and some dawris told me they were trash :(
Nolan King
Here's a question: do the devs even play their own game on higher difficulties? It seems like a ton of these bugs would be found like within a few hours of gameplay and the most basic play testing.
During release stream they played on recruit and wiped.
Juan Clark
WHY CAN'T I JUST ROLL THE INDIVIDUAL PROPERTY VALUES INSTEAD OF ROLLING THE PROPERTIES THEMSELVES WHY DO I HAVE TO SPEND OVER 400 DUST TO STILL NOT GET PERFECT ROLLS I AM GOD DAMN FUCKING MAD
Cameron Kelly
I think Veteran is pretty much the cap for the dev teams abilities. Maybe a few of them venture up to champ and think that makes them king shit.
Justin Hernandez
no one cared who i was until i put on the mask also who here /lucky/ and stylin like me?
>a few of them venture up to champ and think that makes them king shit. So just like here
Bentley Edwards
Can someone provide a quick rundown on the devs and their build? Were they wholly unaware that half of the passives/talents did not work? Did they give some bullshit copout excuse?
just get a red xd, were you perchance hoping for an actually better loot system than v1?
Jonathan Perry
So your item screen isn't a complete shit show like it is now
Anthony Richardson
I believe they explained it as they had no idea since everything worked on their dev build and two lines of code in the release version somehow broke everything. Apparently, they only realized this like two days ago.
Jonathan Foster
Stupid lumberfoot dorf can't put me in his book if I burn it, right Lads?
I've heard from a couple anons that people have started to interrupt their own internet connections so as to leave with bots rather than people. Why they would do such things I don't really know. I read a post recently by an user you says he shoots people at the end of the match for standing to still. People are fucking retarded is the point.
Jacob Nguyen
So if cleaving and melee gonna be nerfed to hell, why not just slightly reduce the density of spawns?
Training dummy bases are solid. Throw it from an angle like the one i'm standing in in the screen shot so that the base has a nice height to it. Then jump onto the roof using it.
Its betrayed me, it can stay that way until it learns to behave.
Angel Flores
Wait a sec, did they increase the amount of spawns in swarms and what not because they didn't know that none of the talents were working and that was why higher difficulties were easy?
Two lines of code makes it even harder to find. . . There are hundreds of thousands to millions of lines of code in a game like this, two lines breaking something is not unheard of, it's probably the norm. Depending what code it was, it could have been very difficult to pinpoint what was wrong.
Aaron Wilson
Yes. They balanced a game around their glitch and increased the spawn density and health of everything.
They are about to remove the glitch and change none of the balancing. Think about that.
Legend is going to be an absolute clusterfuck because you are losing 60% damage on ranged and 40% on melee with LESS CLEAVE.
Jose Sullivan
3rd tier is anything but arrow regen at level 25. 1st tier is a matter of opinion between attack speed and critical hit when using the glaive.

Justin Jenkins
Is push/block angle worth it on a deffensive IB? I'm getting my post-nerf build ready. I'm running Drake with extra damage to infantry/chaos but I'm unsure what to put on my shield. 2 stam is obvious but not sure if the angle is worth it
Lincoln Hernandez
>1519889784702 It's not unnoticeable if your teammates aren't in the habit of constantly dying. Regening eventually enough to be able to take 1-4 more various hits is kinda big deal when you hits a healing drought dry spell.
I prefer level 5 crit chance and scrounger on ranged.
Jaxson Martinez
>be unchained >use sword >die to chaos warrior and stormvermin spam >use mace >die to trash because the mace has phantom swings and is garbage at hitting wide
I wonder if the phantom swing issue is why the mace in this game just feels like garbage to use. The mace in VT1 wasn't great against hordes, but it was at least serviceable. Being able to skip past the first overhead swing in the light combo did help, though.
Jordan Clark
They are absolutely that dense. Screencap this for future reference. I might be wrong and I am glad if I am but mark my fucking words they are going to patch it and make Legend unplayable before realizing what they have done.
Joshua Watson
wow this guy fucking sucks
Noah Rogers
I'm taking around 50 damage on vet runs. Most of the matches I don't need to heal, so would that be fine?
