hi Fatshark. If you can't see it yet you're doomed. Basically, halving the damage and cleave from power levels is stupid and does the opposite, rather than making game more melee-focused with possible diverse choices it forces you into the same roles even more, because others find it harder to compete as there's less of a leeway.

People hate it because it undid the past month of balancing and they for some reason think the first patch is the end result instead of the start of another full month of balancing.

How exactly are they fucking up? The game was developed around a missing part, they added that part and things broke, now they are rebuilding everything around it. I mean, yeah they fucked up by spending all this time without a core mechanic being implemented properly, but their course of action and current results are perfectly reasonable for trying to fix something like this. And how exactly am I a contrarian idiot when you say the exact same things I did? - that people are assuming this is the intended result and will be pushed out as is, ignoring the fact that they need to give feedback and that it will take time for things to get back to a playable state. It is a perfectly acceptable position to take in this situation. You call me an idiot for this, but for me the idiots are the ones getting far too mad and saying the patch - and by effect the fixed power mechanic - needs to be reverted solely because the current state is undesirable, rather than giving input on the official forums as to how they should proceed with re-fixing the balance.

Some weapons and careers are basicly useless as it is and the beta patch just makes them totally worthless, whats there to test? That fatshark fucked up? Yeah well we allready know that.
Before the problem was found nobody was complaining that the hero power needs to be reduced, theres no reason to test it after the "fix" without bringing it up to the level of how it is now on the version the players are playing.

Thats two by my count and its still just you projecting.
The thing is its pretty concerning the devs dont realize its not worth even testing the fix without bumping the hero power scaling to the live versions level. Most weapons are fine, some are overperforming wildly like ranged weapons but others really arent that much.

The first was meant as the end result of their attempts to fix their fuck up, though I can see how it can be interpreted otherwise.

It isn't just a simple change though, its the introduction of a missing core mechanic when the entire game was made around it both existing and not existing. To revert it would be to break the game again simply because the broken state is currently more desirable than the first step of a fixed state. You are saying my reading comprehension needs work when I've had to repeat myself multiple times. Shit wont get fixed overnight and fixing something this vital always means breaking things for a while.

>Is there a lore reason why drakefire pistols are exclusive to Ironbreaker?
Yes.
Ironbreakers are the guys that man the inner gates of a dwarf hold, IE where the abandoned tunnels are. As such they have the toughest armor (as in toughest in the entire lore) and are trained to fight in close formations.
Ironbreakers specialists, called Irondrakes use short ranged heavy weapons Drakeguns (essentially plasma gun or hellguns), Trollhammer Torpedo launchers (rocket launchers), cinderblast bombs (proper high damage grenades, "Geballte Ladung" german pack of stick grenade-style) and drake pistols (plasma pistol).
The big drake guns aren't flame throwers, that's rickety skaven/imperial tech, they fire bolts of flames like the pistols, but the key point is it's shit for close combat and either should lose power over distance or should be inaccurate as fuck.
Rangers in the meanwhile are the guys that guards the outside of a hold, scout and roam around really rather than patrol. They ambush or counter ambush, pick straglers surprise attack monsters, use poison, etc…
Ironbreakers are well respected, well trained, well armed, well disciplined, elite dawi soldiers. Rangers are dwarwen literal murder-hobos and treated as such.

what are you talking about? i run drakegun and 2h axe as iron breaker
if anything i feel the dwarf ranger really needs to have its skill tree redone. its barely viable at lvl20 with temp health, but even then the only viable option is the grudge raker which is useless against the 2 armored stage bosses. you dont get enough ammo with the dwarf rifle or crossbow and filthy knife ears seem to autograb the ammo drops immediately. add on to the fact that bosses ignore the dwarf smoke and still decide to immediately go for you so you get knock out of the smoke and dont get to use the damage bonus for long.

I can tell you exactly why it sucks compared to the hammer. The hammer has better cleave and wider swings than the axe. Not to mention you can get like 2 swings of the hammer for one swing of the axe. The axe also doesn't break shields in one hit which the hammer does with one normal attack. The charged attack on the axe is also worse than the hammer. Basically there is no reason to use anything other than the 2h mallet since gunners are almost never alive for more than a moment and if you are using the flamethrower then you know you gotta use the 1h axe for optimal single target damage.

Yeah 2h hammer is the weapon every dwarf should be using unless they are using the drakegun in which case they should use the 1h axe since you have hordes covered and you need the single target damage.

Talking about weapons, with Saltzpyre's bountyHunter, what weapon do you prefer? 1h Flail, Falchion, or Rapier? Or 2H? I prefer at the moment the flail, with its wide attacks, powerfull strike to one player too, and its ability to fuck shields.

He's a second tank, that's all. His charge has a lot of utility usage. It can be used to stun a boss or create space to revive someone and with the unlimited block talent I'd say that it's better than Bardin's skill even if Bardin is better overall. If you can sacrifice a shield (questionable as a main tank) he also has the best melee weapon in the game, his Halberd, being uniquely effective for both horde clearing and armor piercing. It comes at the cost of having the worst selection of ranged weapons in the game however.

Understandably, it would be unbalanced in the current state the classes are in now. The Ironbreaker exist and half the classes aren't even that good. Still, if the game does get better in balance, it would be a fun idea to try.

Being the coolest guy on the team :^)
As a Kruber main, even I don't really know. He seems to be intended as a support kinda character, with all three of his career skills providing some kind of passive buff aura.
>>14588002
I've never used a shield on Kruber, terrible moveset on any of the shield combos and you really don't need the extra stamina considering he's already got sufficient to work with, could always just equip a trinket that gives you extra stamina if you REALLY need more. I also only really use halberd on mercenary kruber, because along with paced strikes you become a whirling death machine. On FK, and even sometimes on mercenary, I use 2H hammer because it utterly fucks anything armored and the charged attacks are the best horde clearing attacks bar none. Huntsman isn't a bad career either, giving everyone around him increased crit chance, and he still deals with elites, specials and bosses pretty well, he just gets overshadowed by other careers that shit out damage with "I Win" buttons. Overall, I'd say he's the most balanced character of the bunch, there's a viable reason for picking any of his careers. Meanwhile, you won't see Saltz players on anything but BH, or Sienna players on anything but Pyro, for example.

Pretty sure Zealot would get picked more if his skill wasn't so crap. A berserker specializing in being super low health and surviving is cool, it's just that beyond that idea he doesn't actually bring anything to the table.

He's great at not dying and has a lot of damage shaving and defensive abilities. He's really great at making those health pickups last since he practically never needs them as long as he doesn't get downed more than once every couple of minutes.
But you're right that he's bland and his career skill is terrible. I was playing him almost exclusively until I played Footknight Kruber recently. Other than the death insurance, which is spotty anyways, Footknight does everything zealot does only better.
>More stamina without having to be low health.

Meanwhile zealot has
<More damage
Which on melee is about as useful as being the smartest kid in the special ed classroom. Even then it requires you to be low health to get the most out of it which is usually not somewhere you want to be.
<Uninterruptible heavy attacks
Which is a lie and even if it wasn't it's still largely useless. Most of salty's weapons with the exception of the rapier, have a pretty pitiful heavy attack and the rapier's heavy attack is so quick that there's almost no window in which that ability would even come into play. Even when it would work, it would happen so infrequently that it would be barely noticeable and the number of times where it was critical would be completely negligible. The ability to randomly smite one random idle rat on the map every 10 minutes would be more useful. You'd at least see it once in a while.
And that fucking career skill is in dire need of an overhaul. It's pretty much Slayer's leap only worse in every conceivable way. Almost no knockback, half the attackspeed bonus, longer cooldown, cannot cross over gaps, has to be pointed in a direction rather than directed to a location, and it breaks removing what little attackspeed bonus you have if you pick one of the useful level 25 talents. And unlike the footknight-zealot comparison, there's literally nothing about the zealot's charge that the slayer's leap doesn't do better except for maybe getting yourself killed quicker which is a tough call between the two.
I really want to love the zealot, and I will probably still play him more than anything else, but he's a real fucking mess and I don't know if FS will ever get around to fixing him.

Have you even played the game? That's a fucking retarded comparison. Stop posting.
Sienna tries to go for that wacky aunt style but falls short making it more awkward and bland. She's more like a single, childless boomer woman hanging out with a bunch of younger people. That hardly translates to being a redditor. Reddit is infamous for being content stealing faggots who rehash the same tired shit ad nauseum and then keep rehashing it some more. The comparison doesn't make any sense.
Kruber and Baradin are bros 4 life, Kruber being the more witty one while Baradin has an almost naive aspect to him that makes him endearing. They're both quick to compliment and when they throw insults its typically in the form of entertaining banter. Neither of these characters have anything in common with the Youtube or twitter communities. Youtubers were known for /b/ tier senseless namecalling and bickering and twitter doesn't really have a single uniform culture. I can't even figure out where you found anything relatable to the characters and those communities.
Anons generally at least find creative ways to grief people. Even when you're the victim, you still may find it a bit funny just through the absurdity of it. That's not Kerillian at all.
Kerillian sounds a tumblrite blogger, being a self-fellating bitter cunt screaming insults at people that don't make any sense outside of her own head. She finds every excuse to make snarky little comments about everyone around her, even the ones helping her, and completely incapable of formulating a single compliment without lacing it with snide contempt. She rubs anons the wrong way because she rubs EVERYONE the wrong way. She's just a generally unlikable character.

That's the most retarded thing I heard in these threads, there's no point in farming exotics in fucking veteran because Hero Power is capped at 200, which means it'll be easily replaced once you do champion and not to mention it has an absurdly low drop rate. Shit has to be less than cosmetics because I already got 3 ugly cosmetics from commend chests. Hell I'm already doing Legend with a level 21 elf and 240 Hero Power equipment and finding moderate success with pubs. If you really want easy mode then just play as a moderately geared pyromancer, they do so much damage that trivializes almost every encounter if the team plays around her. The real kick in the dick is learning how to fight against hordes and watching each other back without shooting each other in the back, which is apparently too much to handle for niggas like you. Staying close to your team and using the voice lines as queues for what specials to expect makes the game pretty easy, until you play on legend and have Rothelm Patrols spawn around the corner with a incoming horde and spawn of chaos boss.

Don't forget that its head is also a weakspot so armor piercing projectiles can deal bonus damage from the front or back.

The problem of doing any improvement to bosses is that you risk making them frustrating if a horde or specials spawn at the same time. And honestly three of them are simple but effective at the role they have, and bosses were already improved in terms of the unique stage bosses. They are the actual bosses, the others are just peon champions.
The stormfiend however can use some work. The idea behind him is simple - area of effect denial dude who's very vulnerable (and not too punishing) at being struck in the back, requiring teamwork more than a single champion being decked out to melt boss HP as fast as possible. I think it's a fine role on paper but ends up being pretty unexciting to fight, being a waiting game first and foremost.
Instead of huge lingering trails of warpfire, maybe have a telegraphed path which does one-time damage, like amygdala in bloodborne ? I could see it being a pain when a horde is distracting you and you don't have time looking for patterns on the ground, but then again the warpfire kinda does that. Maybe make it so the telegraph can be seen from the edge of your vision so you can at least attempt a lucky dodge.
54dad6 No.14594934

I know what you mean even plebbit and the forum faggots have realised how just plain fucking broken the spawning system is right now, so any improvements would need to go along with fixing that shit by hard limiting what can be spawned during a boss fight.
Keeping that in mind what do you think could or should be done to make them better?
One thing annoying me is the aggro, sometimes the fuckers will turn mid swing to fuck up the guy behind them while other times they will keep attacking a player until he is stomped into the dirt ignoring anyone around him, no matter the damage dealt. The unreliability of it just fucking kills me.

If no chaos warriors and shit can be spawned along a boss then I would say change the aggro system and movement primarily. The system worked when everyone was on more or less equal footing damage wise and aggro was evenly distributed, but in VT2 it's kinda obsolete. The bosses should change targets more often and unpredictably and have more leap attacks, like the rat ogres (charge attacks would probably be bollocks). That way everyone can be invested even if damage is dramatically lopsided to one or two characters, and the damage dealers wouldn't have them in their crosshairs all the time.
>Also I have never played Bloodborne so I have no idea what you are talking about.
I thought it would be easy to find a video demonstrating it simply but it appears people are absolute fucking retards and would rather film the amygdala's head firing the laser than the effect on the ground, so it works like this.
>Step 1, the monster fires a large laser, in a fixed pattern. It leaves a small light trail
>Step 2, the ground erupts strictly following the trail. If you're not on the line you take no damage.
I think it could be a more interesting threat than a wall that's easy as fuck to dodge but traps you in the terrain.

Nah spinebreaker and ribspreader? are worse by far since they are armored and armor pen isn't absolute when it comes to ranged weapons and teammates almost never bring armor pen weapons. So those fights end up taking forever, but with the fat bastard you can just whack him to death or shoot him to death and essentially make the boss fight trivial. Just gotta know his attack patterns.

If you can chain charged headshots well, the rapier is a formidable choice, but the Falchion works incredibly well with attack speed increases and it means much less dealing with overlapping hitboxes, especially on shieldvermin and chaos warriors. It's a shame they've ruined the sidearm pistol; it was only good for staggering disablers but it doesn't even do that anymore thanks to the scaling reductions.
Speaking of Saltzpyre, the forced delay they attached to his ranged weapons (just like the Huntsman longbow) is absolutely fucking obnoxious and I've already died a handful of times to it in Legendary. I'm almost certain that if you re-arm the altfire of a weapon after trying to switch during the delay it will just eat the switch, because my parries have been disappearing left and right due to my weapon not even showing up in the first place.

I just tried Ironbreaker for the first time, and I have one question - what the fuck they were thinking? He's fucking invincible, I breezed through Into the Nest on veteran with some pubbie without barely taking a scratch. And his pistols are as broken as I thought, they cut through hordes with just a several shots. I don't see how Ranger or Slayer has any chance to compete with this. Another thing that boggles my mind is Hunter Kruber. Ammo on headshots sounds like such a sweet deal, except he just doesn't have a good ranged weapon to go with it! Longbow is piece of shit that drives me insane with its retarded two-stage draw animation that takes ages, repeating handgun is too inaccurate to reliably score headshots outside of close range, at which point I would rather use my melee weapon, blunderbuss doesn't works with this ability, handgun is only good at killing specials and stormvermin, and I don't even need Hunter's extra ammo for that, let alone his headshot ammo.

Huntsman longbow really really needs to just cut the crap and work like Kerillian's yeah. Or at the very least, shooting while zooming doesn't dezoom so you can chain headshots without having to zoom for two seconds again.

I would've been fine with Ironbreaker being a tankiest of tanks, but he also gets the best ranged weapons of all dwarf classes as well. Not only that, but those weapons encourage him to hide behind the team, making his tanking useless.

Soon we will be able to play team of 4 different dorfs. Or even more if their netcode supports more than 4 players.
But yes, its sad that dwarf has one class which is better than any other by a lot and pistols which are better by a lot than any other weapon.
Flamethrower has less range, damage, you cant fucking see shit behind it, overheats faster, and does jack shit against everything. Or pistols which are opposite. I think pistols should overheat more in double mode and cooling should damage more or damage real(not temp) hp. At least they dont kill armored enemies efficiently.

From personal experience, Shield is the superior option if you're the only tank in the party. The additional block radius and stamina go a long way if you build for it. Being able to block at 210+ degrees with 14 stamina goes a long way if you're covering the asses of a Pyro, Huntsman, and Shade.
If you're playing with a FK or Zealot, or at least a good coverage against hordes and specials (decent BH+Pyro) then you can forego the extra defense and focus on horde control and elite clears with the hammer.

Patrols being "silent" isn't the problem. The problem is they only make noise when they move, they don't move for about 30 seconds after they spawn or when reaching the end of their patrol path, and they can spawn literally on top of you.
To put into perspective how bullshit patrols spawn, you know how small the room with the first tome is on Hunger in the Deep (minecart level)? It's a tiny fucking room where you couldn't fit all 4 characters shoulder to shoulder in any direction.

And what the fuck is wrong with a timer based AI director exactly? Do you want it to be spawn based, when defeating a horde and specials prevents them to spawn again for some time? As known as a fucking TIMER BASED AI DIRECTOR?
The only alternative to a non timer based AI director is to set up randomly generated checkpoints spawning shit when the party crosses a line and that just goes against the spirit of the game.

Considering all the effort going into their twitch mode, it's not surprising. I have a suspicion that special spawns weren't fixed at all and the complete opposite happened. Our game routinely had 6 specials on the map at all times with every roaming mob either a marauder or a rothelm and minibosses would always follow with a horde with minimum 2 shield stormvermins.

Despite the normalfaggotry, Twitch mode made sense because FS barely put money into standard marketing.
Instead they made a game mode that could act both as a feature and a tool for getting their game onto as many screens as possible.

because slayer literally walks through stormvermin, fucks up chaos warriors, demolishes bosses, is relatively tanky, has good control with 2h hammer, and retarded dps with dual axes. hes got a great leap for when hes in a sticky situation or needs to revive someone and its on a relatively low cooldown so he can do it for fucking ever.

Agreed. Even if you think you're hot shit and don't get downed often the moment you actually do get downed you're screwed. If they made it so self-healing was 50% less effective or something it might be worth taking on a zealot but as it is the trait is actively a hindrance on anything above veteran.
>>14607896
Fun fact:
Because there are no dedicated servers and everything is p2p, the difficulty of legend and champion are strongly influenced by the host's computer. If your host is running on a $3,000 battlerig, the game will throw mountains of shit at you within 45 seconds of starting the game. If your host is running on a toaster oven, the game will be very sparing on the number of specials and hordes it throws at you and the hordes will often just run around through the air ignoring players since the host computer can't handle the director ai. It's a major part of why there's such a huge discrepancy between people saying Legend is too easy and others saying it's too hard.
Remember to thank Fat Shark for that.

But BH/Way/Pyro can delete specials, but better and from ranged safety and with a IB and a FK offtank or Waystalker you can just do legend runs pretty smoothly and do even more damage. I've seen people trying to go slayer since the patch and its never been as good as having an IB.
fefbcc No.14608623

The CPU handles the director ai and most people have a half-way decent CPU, not stellar but not terrible. If you do manage to max out your CPU when running the game or have a bunch of background processes that are chewing it up, there's a very noticeable difference in what the game does to you. Similarly, if the CPU blows the requirements out of the water, the director ai can go ballistic and just heap shit on you at times, though the recent patches have been addressing this. Most people don't have this issue because most people are running with a middle-of-the-road CPU.
Vermintide 1 did the same thing and people exploited it by running loads of garbage in the background to neuter the director ai.

When you would fire, you could rapidly swap to your melee weapon before the bolt hit, and it would count as a melee kill for your the purposes of refreshing blessed shot. It meant that you could fire a critical blessed shot, swap weapons so it counted as a melee hit, then swap back to fire another critical blessed shot, rinse repeat giving you infinite ranged crits if you were gud.
I think they recently patched that out though.
c21cd1 No.14609628

I thought anons were referring to the fact that if you press Q after pressing a blessed shot and Q again, it cancels the fire animation faster with the spinning gun. Same with fireing and pressing reload witht he spinning gun

Yeah I didn't think it was that good in the firstplace. Most shit doesn't live through a non-crit bolt anyways so the infinite crit thing was more of a meme than practical.
I generally don't play BH anyways for the same reason.
>>14609628
Well it does that too I guess, but it's sort of an animation cancel that you're only using once in a while and it doesn't really save you a whole bunch of time or anything. If it was something you're using for every shot it might be worth mentioning, but as far as I'm aware the repeating crossbow is still king for BH.
fbb8b5 No.14609840
>>14609756
It also gave you the "blessed shots do not consume ammo" talent effect. As a result, you could spam crit shots without reloading. HOWEVER, it would not trigger +2 ammo on crit, which means that if you didn't get kills with every shot to reset your cooldown you could easily run out.
Good against hordes, OK against specials with perfect aim, not too useful against elites and bosses.

The absolute worst part of their 'fix' is that they added the same kind of bullshit no-weapon switch locking that Kruber's Longbow has to his Volley Crossbow and potentially his Repeater as well.
If you fire a shot or engage the alt-fire, there's a delay until you can switch weapons. If you hit to switch, and then re-arm the altfire or shoot again it will also completely drop the input for the switch. This is an absolute bitch when trying to block in close quarters, and shits all over the frontline-skirmishing mixed fighting style the BH had.

b33019 No.14615953

Yeah handgun. I found that the longbow outstrips the handgun when you're playing a huntsman and merc/knight kruber seems to be expected to save or support team mates when it comes to ranged combat, therefore making the blunderbuss or the repeater more useful. Can't find a niche for the handgun.

Longbow may sound better on paper, but it's a fucking bullshit - by the time you draw it, your target will already be killed by obligatory Waystalker who's present on every team now. That's why I tend to avoid Hunter altogether, as he just doesn't have ranged weapon worthy of his talents and passives. As for merc/knight, their focus is on melee, they have excellent melee weapons so they don't really need short-ranged weapons, and handgun allows them to quickly take out threats at long range.
