 This sounds promising. (The video link just takes you to the original release trailer.)

Fans posted:Engines of War because the finale is a piece of piss. Engines does definitely have the most grimoire friendly pacing of any long level, Enemies Below is also a very good pick, and Garden of Morr is a pretty good level that really only makes you do the end with two grims, although it can get hairy if you get the wrong spawns. Just remember that friends that let friends try grim runs on Supply and Demand don't stay friends for long.

I wish that engines of war had a better finale. The Inn is just piss easy to defend. Go into the basement and rats can only attack from two narrow chokepoints. Go upstairs and their pathing breaks so badly that they forget they can climb walls through gaping holes in the building. And yet I still see pubbies trying to hold the line at the loving pier and getting thrown into the water by an angry ROgre.

The basement has a little hole in the ground in the back now where occasionally some rats clamber up from now. It's still just 2 major chokepoints, but you gotta check your butt occasionally now too.

Go upstairs and their pathing breaks so badly that they forget they can climb walls through gaping holes in the building. I kind of like engines because of that. Most of them have a big tricky finale which serves as a difficulty peak. Instead engines has a nasty bit in the middle and follows it up with a long stretch where healing is often very rare, so not only do you need to survive and beat that section, you need to do so in a way that lets you have enough to get through the next chunk, but if you do poorly, you can make up for it. The one thing I don't adore is that once you're in the town area until you get the bell, you've got carte blanche to lose people and can just pick them up. I don't think there's a mechanical way to discourage or prevent just dying and getting recovered essentially for free other than them having grims, but thinking about it, that's kind of enough. Maybe being tighter on the heals in the port town would work so there's a chance the defense on a two grim run means keeping someone oneshottable safe and makes you more vulnerable to packmasters.

True, but I really like the idea of the heroes being tired and wounded and saying "gently caress it, we're going to wait this one out in the basement, be sure to ring the bell extra loud oleysa"

I think the hardest part of that map is the movement between the doomwheels and the inn. People get ahead of themselves thinking they're running to the escape vehicle.

The Doomwheels themselves are a non-trivial event too, a lot of teams I've played with just wipe there.

Seriously, it was never even in EA. It had a couple of actual, sign-up required beta tests and a sort of week long pre-order pre-release but that's it.

New DLC confirmed. Ratling Guns spun up too long will randomly spin and fire on their own units or explode. (Please do this Fatshark, Skaven are funniest when they're exploding themselves. It's why I played them)

Coolguye posted:The Doomwheels themselves are a non-trivial event too, a lot of teams I've played with just wipe there. Both of these are correct, that's what I mean about the pacing being different with a nasty section to put you in dire straits and then a long endurance section after it. It's tricky and cool (and coincidentally pretty favorable for library runs). Also ask me about desperately wanting a good soldier handgun and finally giving up and fusing four green handguns and a blunderbus because come on it's an 80% chance and getting a blunderbus. Then immediately after, rolling one up and it's got literally useless traits. xthetenth fucked around with this message at 06:56 on Nov 17, 2015 |

So I got a trinket that "Increases luck by 25%" what exactly does that mean in game-terms? Do I get better dice rolls or more stuff out of chests or what? Better proc chances?

It increases the chance good things will spawn in chests, like medkits. Picking up cursed die will lower this chance.

It doesn't do that since the last major patch, it just replaces the defenses with more holdout phases, so you'll defend one then have 3 holdouts in a row.

Also if you haven't already noticed, all the door event phases have extended slightly as the doors move slower. So the 2 gates in Smuggler's Run and the 1 in Wizard's Tower.

Ugh. I got a max roll on a killing blow rapier, then my internet went out immediately after. When it came back up, I had to reroll the weapon as it hadn't saved, and rolled minimum.
