Sometimes you can't carry hard enough. I have had multiple games where i've been the last one alive, perfectly parried gutterrunners and shot packmasters before they get to me, avoided a rat ogre, only for the pubstars to all run into a glob suicide charge as soon as I pick them up.

Night10194 posted:It's kinda funny that the elf's bow is one of the worse ranged weapons in the game and she's much better played as a psychopathic blender. Its good at what it does, dishing out headshots at a silly pace. My friend played the elf last night when we did a couple of normal missions and entire stormvermin patrols would be solo'd by him. It was crazy.

Buncha elves bitchin' in this thread. Ulvirich posted:Attempted a normal Wheat and Chaff with a all goon group that I'm used to grouping with. I main witchhunter and if a rat ogre tunnel visions me i've got a pretty good chance of not taking any damage through lots of dodge. The problem with W&C is that there is absolutely no cooldown period. It needs at least 10 seconds here and there to patch up, but you never get that. I expect the devs will tone it down. I still haven't failed that mission, but its by far the most stressful one.

That Italian Guy posted:All the current Vermintide Twitch streams with a double digits spectator count are about people running bullshit BP exploit runs On mondays/tuesdays I stream whatever i'm playing through steam if you want to watch next week. Bit hard to interact but if you just wanna hang out and watch me shoot rats its there. Username is the same as this one. You might be subjected to a few "teaching my friends to survive on hard" smugglers runs though.

That Italian Guy posted:Thats's cool! On what kind of timezone are you in? GMT, usually on from 7:00 until I fancy switching something up or heading out to stretch my legs. Tiler Kiwi posted:the grey seer shittalks you if you die I was really, really sad that there isn't actually a bossfight with him. I wanted to smash his face in with a hammer. Even if he was just a normal rat in a fight and it was just you smashing your way through a crowd of rats to get to him and then bonking him on the face (the energy shield he has means you can't shoot him) it'd be more satisfying than "hah, he falls and dies, you win"

WoodrowSkillson posted:Loot grind = bad, less loot grind = good. i am really missing the lack of logic here. I think the loot system is unneeded and dumb, so getting to skip some of it sounds really appealing to me, since then i can go back to just playing the game to play the game and not chasing a weapon i want, or being annoying that only one character has a good set of weapons but my friend wants to play that one and im stuck with all whites again But, earlier we've already established that you only need loot to play the hardest difficulty and the rest can be done if you're not retarded. So you don't need the loot, its there for those who want it and those who don't can ignore it.

The basic is actually really good because if you have a swarm of rats coming from a single direction you can just go full dragonball on it and most of it will be dead by the time it gets there. Then again I've got a staff that splits into multiple projectiles with a fairly high chance to do so, so I may be biased!

Donnerberg posted:I think it was entirely down to luck. Storm vermin came in safe numbers after a dozen tries. The Well map was the worst by far. The well is surprisingly hard considering its literally "sit in one spot, mow down the skaven coming from 2 directions, tops". Its probably the lack of healing supplies. You're gonna be pissed when W&C gets made easier after a couple more patches.

I'm impressed, usually if a W&C goes that badly at the start half my drat group just gives up and starts making stupid mistakes

We know who'd win. Most elf players don't realise they have melee weapons and can't aim for poo poo.

drat Dirty Ape posted:Two of my friends and I were just playing on normal last night with a bot (2 of us were new and probably pretty bad) and we failed Horn 3 times in a row. I know my one friend was having some connection issues, but that's still seems pretty bad. Honestly, it seems like you'll need a couple of white handguns at the very least. That'll take out those specials in an instant, which makes them a non issue (my group would have one person on the ogre tanking and everyone else would clear the area before helping). Aside from that, you probably need to be ready to let loose with a bomb if it goes wrong. Getting surprised packmastered happens and lobbing a nade at the packmaster will give you breathing room.

Basically, if the elf gets packmaster'd, throw the bombs.

drat Dirty Ape posted:Well, I was the soldier for most of the night and I still have the crappy starting equipment with the blunderbuss so that didn't really help. We probably just have to work on being a little more coordinated and focusing down the specials when they appear (and when it's possible to do so). Yeah, early on its a bit rough, i'd say the handgun is probably the most useful item in the game. The dwarf has his crossbow though, so he should be able to take out specials if you tank the r'orge

Mordja posted:Why will nobody think of the poor pubbie? My group had a pubbie that used all the healing items, still went down all the time and pulled a stormvermin patrol in the middle of combat by running off alone. You can bet we kicked that tosser right before the end. gently caress that guy, the run was 300% harder because he was around. Also a good reason for my friends to go up to hard, because they still want to play normal all the time despite having good gear now, which they assumed they'd need

xthetenth posted:I honestly don't understand repeated failures of basic mechanics comprehension after I assume they got explained to them more than once. Stay with the group, tell people if you're going to go somewhere they aren't, and for the love of god everyone over the one way barrier at once. That's about as simple as try to make sure you open the door before trying to walk through it. I really wish they'd stop spawning packmasters right as you get to that loving barrier. I've lost count of the amount of times we've gone "its clear right? Clear? Clear, jump" only for me to be caught mid loving leap. no this does not happen to me often, why do you ask I should probably also turn my sound up
