There's something appealing about being able to fire 3 arrows from a bow at the same time, which also explode after embedding themselves into an enemy. Also I noticed that like the original, the SMGs are only bad if you don't akimbo them. Having a blast using the first SMGs when I actually have the ammo for them.

ninjahedgehog posted:Maybe it's just me but the SMGs in both this and the first Shadow Warrior feel kinda wimpy and unsatisfying to shoot compared to pretty much every other weapon. Maybe it's the really tiny muzzle flash? Honestly I always imagine that the best SMGs are an extremely high rate of fire needle launcher in any kind of media. Probably why I'm actually okay with how wimpy they are. Also helps that I can actually see what I'm shooting at. Edit: Also the chainsword continues to be loving amazing and I love using it in my vanish antics. InfinityComplex fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Oct 14, 2016 |

So that gun that everyone's been finding in Dragon Mountain? That's unlocked during a story mission.

ninjahedgehog posted:What weapon wheel are people rolling with so far? My go-to has been: 1. Any twin sword or the chakrams 2. Akimbo Five-Oh or Rapid Fire The Triad 3. Sidekick (The very first SMG you get) 4. Shogun or Boomstick (Nothing will stop me from onehanding a sawn off and blasting faces off multiple enemies off) 5. Bows or Spearguns 6. King Skeletor or Triple-6 7. Monsoon (Rocket Launcher) 8. Razorback (Chainsaw Katana) or the Chainsword VVV Edit: They are loving amazing for vanish shenanigans. A fully charged sting with a Chainsword with vanish does an absurd about of damage. InfinityComplex fucked around with this message at 20:39 on Oct 14, 2016 |

Yeah the cooldown thing is just what makes me not want to use that mod. I just overloaded mine with acid and melt, both figuratively and literally, faces off when I invade my enemy's personal space.

Geight posted:Amusingly enough, Shadow Warrior 2013's plot was surprisingly conclusive and gave Lo Wang a solid character development arc, most of which has been ignored for the sake of the second game. Honestly strikes me as odd since 2013's plot was actually pretty good. However I find this one's plot to be incredibly disjointed but coherent enough for you to understand things.

Zaphod42 posted:I keep getting more and more ridiculous guns and I just love it. Gun drops are definitely the most exciting, followed by orange weapon upgrade drops. Stacking elements can create some really cool damage combos. The guns are drat fantastic, makes it actually worth screwing around after finishing a mission just to hunt down the special enemy unique to that mission.

If you check the achievement list and there's actually a loading tip for this as well, there's a unique enemy in ALMOST EVERY mission. Most of the time, they will drop a weapon provided that you kill them and don't have it already.

So I learned that like Healing Flame, you can hold the key for Vanish and charge it up to like 30 seconds. Vanish kicks in after 5 seconds like when you tap it but you can make it last for a good while. You can also hold the key and keep Vanish going as it drains through your chi meter.

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:It's completely random. You have control over elemental gems. Aptly if you slam 3 gems of the same element and quality together you get a higher quality gem of that element. I believe you also have limited control over your body armour, power, and co-op gems (3 gems of the same category will net you that category). I've definitely made legendary quality gems using specific categories alone. Also regarding lost saves, this is from the patch notes again: - Fixed co-op bug, which in rare cases could corrupt saves - Added list of previous saves, so in case of corrupted save you can load previous one - Fixed corrupted saves bug So they're definitely aware of it. And they did bandage it for now. Edit: As an addendum to this, when crafting together different elemental gems, look to the right side of the name bar. Blight is not Toxic element, it's ice.

So I see that people want to see the return of the swarms of flying rear end in a top hat pricks who never flew on your level and that you could only slaughter by using a flamethrower that was more useless than the smgs. Also constantly teleporting banshees.

Honestly I have the HP skill maxed, but it's there just to prevent me from getting one shotted and giving me time to get the deal with buried by enemies. Seeing there is quite a few times where I've been surrounded and dashing out of there wouldn't work. Like can't dash or air dash out of there situation.

Honestly both the triad and the sidekicks are the guns that I use the most, even with later stuff. I also don't even bother with the arm of orochi all that much either. I stick to the crim swords or use best buddy's sword. Edit: phone autocorrect InfinityComplex fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Oct 21, 2016 |
