really can't recommend Under Your Skin enough since it's a Precision Bow that you can force Draw Time string/MW/perks on to make it just as fast as a Lightweight while dealing superior base damage

Lib and let die posted:Silly question maybe, but like...how am I supposed to play with a sidearm? Hip fire up close and click the fire button like an addict slamming the morphine button? if you can get hipfire grip on it, it's extremely valid to never ADS (especially if you have enhanced hipfire grip). it's usually best practice to ADS most guns though, especially since it keeps you in habit for guns that it matters on

personally i'm pretty ok with the plot moving along at a faster pace, especially when it's a logical extension of existing story beats. DSC was a massive superstation over europa, so of course it makes sense that there would be a similar station over clovis's home planet and some bunkers here and there that we only recently learned about because they weren't open before. all of the current plotlines feel way better than some of the asspull stuff that's happened before, like The Red Legion's Last Desperate Attempt

this is like the sixth or seventh time since season of plunder launched that i've had the game just poo poo itself at random and require reinstallation. there doesn't appear to be any consistent reason for it, either - sometimes it's in the middle of a fight, sometimes it's running around an empty room. utterly baffling. https://i.imgur.com/MMdgXS7.mp4

 been on this screen for the better part of an hour. very cool ponzicar posted:I have been playing on PC since release and have never seen that myself. Maybe the hard drive it's on is dying? i originally thought that but the past three times it's happened have been on a SSD that's less than two months old with a fresh install (since i did not trust simply moving the files)

i uninstalled and reinstalled and experienced this not even a half hour later: so i did a bunch of digging and it appears to be caused by a corrupt crash log dump in my user folder. deleted that and have not experienced problems since.

Really hoping that they just mean that they're not going to offer patterns for seasonal World Weapons and Dungeon Weapons anymore and leave Seasonal Content/Raid patterns the gently caress alone.

stat mods should be 1/3 universally. being 2/4 just makes buildcrafting a bigger pain in the rear end, especially since stats tend to be the weakest part of any build (even moreso since they're nerfing ability cooldowns)

Mill Village posted:Resilience has become a very powerful stat so making it cost more makes sense. it's also getting reduced in power so "it's strong now and that's why it needs to be nerfed with a cost increase" doesn't really fly

Mill Village posted:30% damage reduction is still a substantial amount. The stat does more than it used to so it should cost more. resilience has been borderline useless for the majority of destiny 2's lifetime (actually useless in most contexts) and cost as much as much more important stats (discipline and strength) "the stat does something now" is not a reasonable justification for double-nerfing it by both reducing how powerful it is in addition to increasing its cost

SgtSteel91 posted:It went from useless to one of the most important stats, if not the most important stat, especially when you stack it with things like Glaive Shields, Overshields, Restoration, and soon Woven Mail. yes, and the value reduction nerf was justified for that reason, in the same way that Protective Light had a reasonable and well-received value reduction. however, unlike Protective Light, resilience received a second nerf in addition to its value reduction. it is now worse AND more expensive, instead of just being worse, and that sucks poo poo and is not good because we've had no chance to see how the value reduction interacts with existing gameplay or the future up-tuned gameplay. we also have no idea how much the increased cost will impact buildcrafting, and for players who like to get deep into armor customization (hi, i am one of those), that also supremely sucks poo poo. it's fine if you're not worried about this because you trust bungie. they HAVE been getting a lot better about improving game systems to focus on the fun, and i'm sure that a decent balance will get struck somewhere considering all of the cruft and bullshit that they're ripping out like armor elements and slottong seasonal mods. however, that doesn't excuse that we are currently left in the dark about something that's a pretty big deal and the lack of information does not feel great. bungie could have very easily released details in a way that could have prevented this and chose not to, so all we have right now is that resilience got nerfed twice because nuance is hard.

GoGoGadgetChris posted:Whoa let's not kid ourselves here. Protective Light got nerfed to and through the ground and has not been relevant in any way since that time hard disagree that it's not relevant post-nerf, my build uses it to great effect and it is very good at preventing my death. sure it's only 10% resist but that on top of everything else is pretty fuckin substantial

Pirate Jet posted:Joe specifically said they’d be dialing back on craftable weapons from “long-term sources.” Presumably that means anything they plan to keep in the game permanently as opposed to seasonal weapons. So if raid weapons are all staying craftable that leaves… just weapons you get from Neomuna? I don’t think Come to Pass and Pointed Inquiry are about to shred up the meta any time soon so I guess it’s not much of a loss? I think it's in reference to World patterns (Palmyra-B, Syncopation, Ragnhild-D, etc) - they're primarily stepping stones on the way to weapons that are stronger or better themed, but random drops do the exact same job with less investment. Other things he could be talking about :
I'm fairly certain that the Seasonal pattern offerings aren't going anywhere since Seasonal content gets scrapped at the end of every year and therefore don't really fall under the "long-term" category.

kept an eye out during the vidoc's buildcrafting segment, this is what i was able to pull        lots of interesting details, probably my favorite is that holster mods are being moved to elements rather than weapon families Kith fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Feb 16, 2023 |

RBX posted:If there's a kinetic surge I'm gonna be happy. I have good news for you, my friend: Right next to Void Weapon Surge are a bunch of similar looking three-dot-with-weapon-damage-type mods and one of them has the Kinetic icon. Oxyclean posted:e2: What's the very first holster icon before all the element ones? Looks like a yin-yang, guessing it might be "balanced" - lower energy cost, lower effect, applies to all? My guess is Harmonic (weapon matching your subclass element), given that Harmonic Siphon is a thing on Helmets right now.

Panderfringe posted:I don't even know why they pushed so hard for that system, that it took this long for them to abandon it years after it was shown to be garbage. the reason it was there in the first place is because they were terrified of making the system TOO good and TOO accessible, otherwise players' Content Engagement would drop because they wouldn't have to grind as much to get all of the things that they wanted/needed. then it took forever to get rid of because destiny 2 is barely held together in a lot of ways and changing underlying systems often has unforeseeable and irrational consequences (a great example is the removal of blue engrams breaking Triumphs). thankfully the Luke Smith Era Mindset* of Maximizing Content Engagement Through Grinding has been withering and dying for the past few years and god willing will be completely dead by the Final Shape *regardless of if these ideas were actually the brainchildren of Luke Smith, they were enforced under his leadership and are associated with the time he was in charge

PathAsc posted:Yeah the champ counter changes are all fine and well, y'know, if bungie unfucks how buggy the mobs are in the first place. Totally cool to have this dumbass tacked-on system still around all these years later. Absolutely thrilling content. I joke a lot about dunking balls and standing on plates but Champs are still dumb and will continue to be unless the core issue is fixed. yeah champions suck bad tbh. in most content you just super/heavy them, except in a handful of high-level exceptions where you are 100% required to have their counter handy or you lose. neither of these are interesting or good designs. you know what are interesting and good enemies? lightbearer hive. scourge of the past berserkers. gently caress, even scorn captains and taken vandals. enemies that force you to react to their behavior patterns instead of just smashing them to bypass their mechanics or forcing you into a binary where either you win or you don't based on your loadout Lib and let die posted:I don't even know what it takes to get the mod effects to proc.

Lib and let die posted:I was hoping a barrier mod for bows would combine with le monarque for an all-in-one overload/barrier killer but that'd be too fun for the player I guess n. it's actually a code limitation but yeah you can't double up on champ counters HOWEVER if you have a counter mod that MATCHES the native counter of the exotic, the secondary benefits of the mod work just fine (for example Overload mods typically come w/ extra damage vs stunned champions)

SUNKOS posted:I've fallen way behind in D2 and haven't played for a long time. I know they changed seasons to last for a year rather than just the season itself to reduce FOMO but all the seasonal stuff from Witch Queen until Lightfall is going to go away, isn't it? The pirate activity thing and other stuff? I was wondering if anyone knows what will happen to seasonal exotics from quests and such? Will they be added to the tower kiosk for purchase with materials like older seasonal quest exotics (e.g. Bastion from the Saint XIV season quest thingy) were, or will they be going away forever? I can't remember if they did that with any of the exotics from the Beyond Light seasons? seasonal activities/playlists are mostly getting dumpstered, some battlegrounds levels are getting put into the vanguard ops playlist and Exotic Missions (vox obscura, seraph shield, etc) are getting put into a rotator seasonal exotics and ritual weapons go into the kiosk seasonal exotic catalysts get dropped randomly i wrote a list of seasonal patterns that people appear to think is worth paying attention to Kith posted:my favorite patterns from the past seasons have been it's unlikely that they're going away forever but the current easy acquisition is probably not returning Kith fucked around with this message at 17:04 on Feb 17, 2023 |
