How can one meet people and make friends playing these games? Every time I have interacted with the community outside of here I've dealt with socially inept, autistic or mentally ill retards that are either too deep into politics or just plain weird.

People say Tactical is the worst tank in Raiders for endgame, but I think it's a lot more viable than people think.

Torqscrew, Wail, and Turrets keep whatever damage boosts you have active at the time you throw them, for their whole duration, even if you lose the boost.
This gets interesting with Risky Reward, because that's a 140% damage boost with the relic and weapon power. And your gadgets keep the damage boost even if you exit danger while they're still active.
Also interesting, Wail can keep running indefinitely with the mod that extends its duration for every salmon kill.

Note that Close Combat, Long Range, and Concentrated Attack DON'T work like this. Your gadgets will only get the damage boost if you're in range of the salmon.
Which is pretty good on turrets since you can slap them on the other side of the map and get the Long Range bonus.
>>
>>577339574
I weep any time I see someone with CA equipped, no one realizes how utterly useless it is
>>
>>577339574
It’s just that nothing beats the consistent x2 weapon damage from speed gadgets. I didn’t know the distance relic worked like that, I want tactical to be good so I’m still trying to use it more. Any boost coming from being in danger is useless and not worth considering as viable IMO. The one that slowly drains your health is bad enough.

Anon, literally any shot on any other sam resets it

>>
>>577339819
It's good in theory on something like Splatling, where you're going to focus your fire on one target at a time.
But it's completely useless if you're running Torqscrew, anything with an explosion, anything with a large hitbox, or a weapon with low fire rate.

>>577340626
The point is that you don't have to stay in danger to benefit from the boost. You can also recover from danger really fast with Lifesaver relic and weapon mod equipped.

Also just tested it, the Power Tank ability works the same as Close Combat/Long Range where the damage boost is applied to all attacks while it's active, but it isn't 'stored' by gadgets like other boosts.

Nintendo games are the perfect environment for actual pedos because so many kids play them. If Nintendo consoles had a messaging system it would be even worse.

>>577343418
Trve but it doesn't even have to be a children's game, just vaguely whimsical
See TF2, Deadlock, Fortnite, Overwatch, all totally overrun with degens. At least in the former two you can generally call them out without getting punished.

I finally had the meta primo charger drop. What parts are standard on this thing, freeze break, distance damage…ink saver? I legitimately don’t get how chargers compete with shit like blaster or splatanas when you’re always firing into a swarm, and freeze is just coming from gadgets. Don’t you eventually stop hitting the one shot breaking point as difficulty scales and get cucked?

Did some number crunching autism and discovered that Close Combat/Long Range/etc. are multiplicative bonuses rather than additive like other damage modifiers. But I kinda suck at math so I might be wrong, but the numbers line up. I tested it with Power Mitt because it's where I first noticed some weirdness with the numbers.

Damage with Power Mitt
>56234 base damage
>67481 with Power Tank boost (~20% increase)
>62982 base damage with 12% damage boost mod (~12% increase obviously)
>65231 with Close Combat active (~16% increase)
>74229 with Power Tank and 12% damage boost mod (~32% increase)
>86105 with Power Tank, 12% damage mod, and Close Combat active (~53% increase)

If Close Combat was additive the damage boost would only be 48% rather than 53%.

>tl;dr you should be running as much Close Combat or Long Range as you can.

Did you make a room?
>>
>>577346370
Building on this the damage formula is probably something like
>base damage * additive damage boosts * close combat/long range boost
Now the question is if Close Combat/Long Range/Concentrated Attack are considered independently or are additive with each other, but it's late and I don't feel like testing it.

Either way the meta appears to be Double Long Rang+Double Concentrated Attack+Ice Breaker Stringers, because Stringer projectiles are considered separate attacks (but brella pellets are all considered to be part of the same attack, so brellas get cucked once again lmao)
Nips already figured it out but running experiments myself is fun.

Yup, tested it myself, damage reduction is additive so you can reach 100% damage resistance and attacks will do nothing to you.
