The elf isn't even a long range specialist, they're meant to be a skirmisher. If you're boring and stupid and not fun you'll try to play it like a long range specialist, but it's not.

I'm starting to suspect that if an attack isn't armor piercing and it hits the sackrat's sack it doesn't do any damage; and something similar with the globadier/ratling gunner's backpacks(which maybe get a chance to explode?). Someone earlier mentioned that your performance effects your loot options; is that true and if so how does it work? Like, when I'm playing the Empire Soldier I've always got a billion clanrat kills, but when I'm playing the witchhunter I don't have many at all but I do have the most stormvermin and special kills. What gets weighted and how?

Inzombiac posted:I cannot stress how important it is to take the rifle as a soldier. Steady your aim and a headshot will kill any special outside of an Ogre. The crossbow for the Witch Hunter is like that too. I sure love the idea of having 48 pistols strapped to my torso, but that crossbow is a boss bitch for dealing with the dangerous rats.

Demiurge4 posted:Remember there is such a thing as a luck stat in the game. Either stack it with trinkets or avoid cursed die if you want easier runs. One of the things that I really like is all of the risk/reward items in this game. It's not like, the most challenging game ever as a baseline on normal, but you can trade up to make poo poo pretty hard if you want and it is unforgiving as gently caress if you do. That's fun as poo poo to me.

CJ posted:I agree that zombies are boring and played out, but you can't deny that there's a sizable population that are into the zombie apocalypse fantasy who will buy games that have zombies in them, it has an inbuilt audience. You can't say the same thing for the rat killing fantasy. I think the idea of making a left 4 dead style game in a fantasy setting is good, and the random loot is a cool idea to keep it interesting. I just think a large problem with this type of game is that it gets pretty repetitive, and having every enemy be a rat doesn't help - even though there's some with guns and rat-ogres and stuff, they're still visually rats. I don't know that much about Warhammer lore so maybe it's great if you're a Warhammer fan, but from an outside perspective i feel it would be better to make the enemy faction the Chaos, since they had a variety of enemies like the evil knight guys, the mutant warriors, the evil mages and demons. Even if what i'm saying is completely unfounded and the rats don't get boring because they have tons of personality, i still think it's easier to sell a game where you fight lots of different stuff than a game where you fight rats, rats and more rats. Within the framework of the setting, chaos would be the worst enemies. Other than marauders and really basic beastmen things like the Chosen or basically any daemon are just something that four ordinary mortals can't kill. Of the enemies you can have in Warhammer, the best ones for a horde game like this are Skaven or Orks, and in the official storyline for the setting the Skaven are overrunning the cities of men during the End Times. They're also pulling the Chaos Moon Morrslieb down into the earth, which gets the Slaan in Lustria all worked up to stop them and gives a reason to include a lizard man hero

I would pay like $15 for a Warpriest of Sigmar character, who trades a ranged weapon for a prayer book that he just holds up and shouts litanies from while you hold down the mouse button. I'd also pay a lesser sum of money to replace the Witch Hunter's ranged weapon with that.

While I generally agree that the person playing the elf is the worst, I had an elf pub drop earlier and the bot used the poo poo out of that quick bow with perfect accuracy. Every horde, entire waves would fall down with arrows in their faces almost at once it seemed. That was pretty awesome.

I keep getting green and blue trinkets instead of weapons. At level 15 I'm wearing a trinket with +40% revive speed, and another with +50% Luck. I just want a new Rapier though

apostateCourier posted:+Revive speed is great, at least. It's great, being able to pick people up between rat swings. It really is! I saved a Wheat & Chaff run with it; I spawned into already getting beaten by a swarm at low health and two downed characters nearby. I managed to revive them both between shield pushes because it takes barely two seconds to rez someone with that trinket. I spent the rest of the game doing that and tossing bags like some sort of hairy little strongman.

Gridlocked posted:First game went great, we did the beam strat That's an exploit, not a strategy; same as the dumb under the horn bullshit everyone was a loving idiot about. Nothing makes me happier than watching people who are dumb babies about loot rather than smashing rats get picked apart by ranged specials when they do that.

Zephro posted:OK, thanks. Just so I'm clear: you need max stamina to block the toss attack? Being one shield down will let it through? I thought that the charge drained all remaining stamina to block it, no matter how many pips you have left. I've blocked it with everything from 2.5 pips to a shield's 5 pips and had it work that way. The ground pound will do damage if you're in range no matter what though; blocking just reduced it slightly.

I respect that you guys find nightmare fun because what's fun for you is up to you to decide, but man that just sounds like too much work for me. I just want to set it on hard, sweep waves of rats away with my hammer and periodically play the slots on fusing a bunch of blues together after I spend all day teaching people about insurance.

Gimnbo posted:When I feel like killing rats and don't feel like playing with pubbies or waiting for goons, Man the Ramparts on hard is pretty reliable with bots as long as you have a weapon for sniping specials. If you have a dwarf or soldier bot with a handgun no special will last half a second past when you mark it. I'm glad they're on my team, because they loving cheat, man.

I really, really like Kruber with a two handed hammer and a handgun. Rats cartwheeling through the air like mad during swarms, being able to duel most of a stormvermin patrol and win, and no special is safe anywhere in your line of sight. This is a game about smashing rats and god drat if this hasn't been the most fun way for me to play it yet.

Arcsquad12 posted:But that wouldn't really balance well. I'd give the Orc lots of high speed armor piercing attacks to show how pissed he is, and maybe his secondary is going berserk. Keep the abuse on the partners however. If a character is downed, the Orc kicks them hard to wake them up rather than helping them to their feet. Instead of helping people up it should just do damage to make them bleed out faster, except show you a meter like you're helping them up. THAT'S JUS' WOT BOYZ DO

Is Magnus still the map where there's some geometry exploit at the end so you can just sit and swing out a window or whatever with no risk, and pubbie groups will kick you right before the carriage if you don't do the prostrat exploit bullshit? I haven't played this game since before the free shrine DLC and those people are why I quit even though I loved the game.

I got a little mad when a RamboElf lost our grim leaping directly into the middle of a pack of rats on nightmare, but you get partial credit for contracts so that helped. At least I only needed one more run with one grim to complete the contract.

I had 4 games last night with 4 different elf players that were using some sort of memory edit to not lose health on hit. It was the most boring un fun bullshit; losing fairly is plenty fun if you're not a loving idiot baby. We still managed to lose 2 of them when the elf was off pressing M1 by themselves, the rest of us went down, and they got packmaster'd. gently caress elf players.

Which of the Drachenfels maps is best for quick completions? I feel like it's Summoner's Peak as long as I'm the bright wizard and clear the generators myself. Quality doesn't matter, I have enough materials to drive a white item to orange and then re-roll a few times for traits. I want that volley bow real bad.
