Internet Explorer posted:Better UI will definitely help, but I've also run into people who straight up say they don't want heals. And it's too low to be good for Zealot. Maybe people think the Zealot passive needs a lot less health than it does at low levels? I dunno. It also seems to be the same people who just press W and sprint through the levels. I remember Vermintide being like this early on and those people either mellowed out or moved on to different games. I think going to the higher difficulties alleviates it a bit as they lose those matches a lot more and get frustrated. Coquito Ergo Sum posted:I think some people skip the Medicaid Stations because of "What if we need it later." I have to fight off the urge to think "But if I heal myself, the game director will come down harder on the team." This was a marksman player in a difficulty 3 endless horde mission. This particular medicae station is always there. At the bottom of the staircase is a drop down you can't come back from. This mission was also in closed beta. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8rZnzWtO9U I'm gonna have a joker moment soon  On a lighter note: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbSgfwry32M

Looking through penances I have a lot on 6/7 of mission types. What's the last one that's not in the beta?

Edit: At least it worked 2 times in a row, the third time I got the same error I get when I try to use quickplay. Seems to be a bit wonky at the moment.

I tested the grenade gauntlet and was also surprised to find the AOE damage was awful. Not worth it, needs a boost IMO.

Are there multiple staff types and are any of them good? I’ve seen one so far on the shop (which updates once per hour lol) and it feels less useful than a gun, the primary fire projectiles get dodged by enemies, it loses all useful accuracy if you’re moving, and the AOE charge attack is slow, weak, and pumps your crazy meter extremely rapidly.

Do you actually get more xp/money by having all your teammates extract? Not sure sometimes whether to go back and get someone if I'm already at the end

Wheeee posted:Are there multiple staff types and are any of them good? There's two other staves, I think you unlock them around level 20 tho. One is called the Voidstrike and the other is called the Surge. The surge shoots lightning for it's M2 and the voidstrike shoots a giant fireball. I just bought them so I haven't tried them out in a match but from the meat grinder the fireball seems pretty good for horde clearing! also the surge says it has a staff-bound smite so I guess if they introduce a new psyker there's a chance they'll have smite instead of brain burst

The staves I've come across so far are Trauma, Surge and Voidstrike. Trauma is probably the one you got, and is a bit hard to get value on especially if your team doesn't frontline in a way that lets you aoe concentrated hordes. It can still be extremely helpful since with all staves, you can quell peril while moving. Warp Resistance will make it not build up peril as much, and high Quelling Speed will make you dump all your peril from 100-0 in like a couple seconds. Surge started showing up maybe around level 15, and might be my favorite so far. Similar primary fire to Trauma, but secondary charges a lightning that shoots out and chains to like half a dozen targets at a time. At full charge will even kill elites in one hit. But the real kicker is that even with low charge it staggers really well, and trivializes poo poo people usually really hate, like poxbursters or ragers. Voidstrike is more or less Sienna's Fireball staff, showing up around level 20. It has a more accurate primary fire than the last two and a secondary that charges a ball that flies out in a straight line, dealing massive damage, until it hits something it can't penetrate like a mauler. At that point it explodes, causing aoe stagger. The one I got isn't even particularly good, but it will still kill as many flak armor enemies as you can fit in it's path in one shot with around 70-80% charged ball. As with everything, damage and stagger gets better the higher your item level.

There's something vaguely insulting about burning the poo poo out of my forearm and then immediately finding a flamer in the shop when I go to check it. The Emperor has rewarded my pain with plenty.

Yknow it feels like the classes are more specialized in this game, with ideal engagement ranges due to perks and targeted mechanics. Everyone has a weakness and everyone has a strength, unlike in VT where basically anyone could be built to fill a role well in one way or another. So it's weird that Vermintide had a "one per team" rule and this one let's you have four psychers and there isn't anything you can do to stop it since you can't dynamically switch characters.

Nehru the Damaja posted:Was that right before the autoscheduler fight in the marketplace? Not on the assassination mission but on other one in the same zone, when you're above the marketplace and you go up some stairs and drop down into that long room with the medicae on the immediate right. Ironically I posted that while alt-tabbed out as three of us were down/in rescue and the last guy actually managed to clutch it and clear the room by using all the medicae charges. Didn't save us later though. Orv fucked around with this message at 22:01 on Nov 19, 2022 |

Been playing only Ogryn and while I haven't had a chance to get high level yet still been having a blast of a time. To chip in to Grenade Gauntlet chat: It's the single target early weapon option. You don't use it for hordes, it's supposed to be used to kill that one rear end in a top hat special or knockdown an ogryn sized enemy. The AOE explosion is just bonus CC the softens up smaller stuff at the same time. You use your melee for hordes usually anyway, as you have a huge swing and deal loads of damage. Also if you have a competent Veteran congrats on never running out of ammo even using it liberally.

You can only get grims and scriptures at level 2 + though, and those are often needed for the vendor dude - though he has nothing I want currently.

Evil Kit posted:Been playing only Ogryn and while I haven't had a chance to get high level yet still been having a blast of a time. It's without a doubt the ogryn's best ranged weapon because it covers his weaknesses (enemies at significant range, big deathballs of gunners, actually killing hardened elite enemies) while complimenting his strengths (giving space to the other players, everybody falls down now). The more I play Ogryn though, the less I'm liking of the weapon variety at the moment, especially compared to what the humans have access to at any given level. For the first 20 levels it's basically knife club shovel shield and that's it. Kind of wish they got access to a two hander or the shock maul a little earlier.

Mechafunkzilla posted:Without loot drops, it doesn't feel like there's any compelling reason to play the higher difficulties. I largely agree but the amount of money they give relative to lower difficulties is enormous, so you can buy new weapons more frequently. Level 3+ also gives significantly more xp. So I feel compelled to do them.

Popete posted:Are there plans to add loot drops to missions? I am only guessing here but since there's some kind of crafting that will be added in by launch I'm betting you will get crafting materials from missions and then you will use those crafting materials to either tweak store-bought weapons or to craft them from the ground up
