Any convenient resources for with which to help me not suck? Here's 5 easy steps to being good at vermintide. Step 1: Stay together Step 2: Remember to use block and push because they mean you don't take damage which is more important then hitting a rat. Step 3: Use potions they are everywhere and do you zero good when you are dead Step 4: Heal immediately after you go down because it will turn your temp hp into real hp in addition to healing 50% of your health. Step 5: gently caress the elf.

So i've been having poo poo loot drops all day from hard/nightmare, as in nothing but greens. Last round doing a hard horn it just took the piss. Every loving item on the list was a trinket other than the success which was a shotgun.

She never has anything good to say, and it's just to grating after hearing the dwarf laugh like a loon and launch into his latest dwarfen drinking song.

Kerillian is an outcast of some sort and probably cursed, since the Bright Wizard mentions that Kerillian soaks up magic every time she kills a skaven for some reason. She's really bitter and pissy for a reason.

I also don't think absolutely solid jet black eyes are normal, even for wood elves.

So the soldiers repeated gun with rupture(gives shots Pierce) and 50% increased magazine size makes you ridiculously good at thinning down hordes and holding doorways.

She's really bitter and pissy for a reason. The Elf's card says she's counting all her kills for unshared personal reasons. Maybe she has a curse and she needs to kill X rats to lift it?

She's really bitter and pissy for a reason. her bg says her senses were always sharper than most as kid and one night she made the dumb mistake of following a spellsinger deep into the woods. Definitely cursed.

Do all of the bows hit multiple targets? I got a green bow and if I charge it up it will hit the target I am aiming at and then "seek" another enemy or two but it doesn't list this trait anywhere.

Some have penetration but what you have is a trueflight bow. If you select it in your inventory and scroll to the bottom it will tell you.

One of his purity seals has nothing but a massive set of kill marks and another has a little fish drawing on it. Also, he leaves little notes for all the others in their rooms, sealed with the imperial cross.

This is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqEbK17Tdbc It's nowhere near as good as it first sounds. The text chat at the start points out that they failed A LOT at least while refining the strategy, and i'm going to guess that their success rate isn't a shitload better now. The basic idea, it seems, is essentially to split up to separate barrels and bring them back, basically praying to the deity of your choice that a pack master or gutter runner doesn't show up early and ruin everything. One of the comments makes an interesting assertion, though, that apparently the Rat Ogre on Black Powder is timed. If that's the case, then it does indeed make sense to basically split up and try to get everything or almost everything done before the ROgre arrives, since his influence is what ends most runs at Black Powder. This is true either directly (by killing people) or indirectly (by hurting people so bad that they can't survive the next couple of horde attacks).

Rat Ogres really aren't a big deal. If it's looking at you block and jump backwards. If it's not looking at you stab it in the back. Repeat until you win.

Yeah that's not really a trick or anything just being real lucky with spawns. Black Powder probably is the easiest though just because how short it is if you go fast.

It is not honest to say 'oh you can just hit it until it dies.' It's constantly summoning friends who will be hitting you until you die. And this is doubly true on something like Black Powder. randombattle posted:Yeah that's not really a trick or anything just being real lucky with spawns.

Bussamove posted:This is really the most important step. The dwarf is so good, because it seems like he has a song for every map. Which makes the Elf even more of a bummer, because she stops him half the time. Earlier today I got this. "EVERYONE, I HAVE THE PERFECT SONG FOR THIS OCCASION." "Lets hear it Dwarf" "YELLS A SONG IN DWARFISH" *Kruber joins in* "Would you stop your dreadful bellowing dwarf. Some of us are trying to concentrate." Like fuuuuuck you Elf. Half the team jokingly suggested kicking the Elf player for playing such a spoilsport character. gently caress the Elf. I don't care how good she is, anybody who picks the Elf hates fun.

Coolguye posted:That would be true if the semantics were the same as the L4D tank and latency weren't a thing. But neither of those things are true. Many people have problems dodging backward unless they are the host because the imperfect latency means that they can get hit even when they've dodged backward a good quarter second ago. Further, while the L4D tank basically forestalls horde events and restricts special spawning down to a crawl, the Rat Ogre actively causes horde events as long as he is alive and leaves special spawning untouched (if not aggravating it outright). You don't time the dodges, you just constantly hop backwards like some kind of frog while holding out your guard. If he misses yay for you. If he hits then your guard saves you and you just repeat it. It's silly but it works pretty well as he can never quite catch up to do a proper hit. If you get a horde and a Rat Ogre then the game hates you sadly. I find usually it'll lay off throwing a swarm at you if you kill the Rat Ogre in good time. Though Hook Rats remain utter bastards.
