Lmao I was wondering where was the general on /vg/

Im playing dd2 why should I start as anything but my Arisen as thief and my pawn as Mage?

>Mage early game means high palladium, high elemental boon, and high celery, something most pawns don't even get until lv 25+
>Thief arisen can kill most bossew without relying on gear and or skills

Like sure it's cool to start as fighter or mage to get some augments but they suck so bad without gear AND skills

Congrats, you are finally free. I haven't been playing much lately because the new Daemon X Machina took all my attention for a few weeks, but as soon as I thought about Calibur builds a little I ended up spending the entire morning on making a new outfit/build for it so I don't think I'll be done with this game any time soon. Might even do team battle for fun every now and then once all my missions are complete. Don't worry about the thread, I should have enough clips to keep it alive until EoS; although I guess there's not much point to it anymore since nobody new is going to come looking for a place to talk about Ninjala.

Calibur with Starting Dash and Berserker goes burrrr. Well, it would have turned out the same way thanks to Starting Dash + Turnabout Guard even if the VS didn't drop their combo and Gum Shot hit. Full build is
>(SP) Ninja Sense Pro 1, Gum Guard Master 13, Starting Dash 123, Turnabout Guard 123, Berserker 12

I've been using Iron Bind on Calibur for years now since it's explosion code is really good with Punishing Blade, but since that's the only reason to take it aside from slightly more DPS against cheaters I think I can leave that strategy to Drill. Instead, I threw on Starting Dash to get big weapon earlier while also getting some on-respawn buffs that all benefit Calibur. With that, you can get one of the strongest big weapon abilities and gum shoots within the first minute if all goes well. People tend to only have one burst early on, so if they do that at the wrong time against medium Grenade it leads to easy kills; and the speed boost lets Overpowering Wave fling you even further across the stage to take advantage of that. The Starting Dash buffs only last for 30 seconds, but they're pretty nice if you can fight enemies for most of that time. NSP helps find enemies while that and GGM plus SP's movement utility also help mitigate the energy regen nerf. Starting Dash wasn't my idea, but it really does seem like one of the best picks for this weapon. Now if only I could figure out a BGM to use with it that matches both the outfit and the pace of Surfer and Ogre

Also, some assorted clips of it. Haven't had much time to go through clips for a while

Did my account mmr fall down into the shitter realm while I was away? Kills don't feel like they give more xp than a single minion wave at the start of the game. Also, I often get matched with people with single/double digit account levels.

>>2003410
I think that after a long period of inactivity (1-3 years google tells me) your MMR soft resets to silver something. There's no silver rank in QM but you get the idea. The "good" news is that since your MMR uncertainty is so high right now you should be able to win most games if you simply outsoak.

>>2003413
I've racked up 50 qm games since I came back and people are still brawling mid at the beginning. I may just be a shitter myself, even though back when numerical ranks where a thing I managed to achieve rank 10.

>>2003410
>>2003431
people have been fighting for first blood at mid at the beginning of the game since the game was released
players in QM tend to play just for fun, if you want optimized matches go play ranked

most 3 stars play like fucking chickens without their heads
to say a 6 star plays anywhere near a 3 star is disingenous. A single 6 star should be able to wipe a team of 3 3 stars with ease.

>>2003216
i said 4 not 3, and i'm mostly talking about how shit 5-6 are these days, many of them play like the oblivious polish truckdrivers in 3-4* who literally still have their eyes on the road during the match with a bottle of vodka in their steering hand.

Played it again, dualies are unchanged, they're still strong as hell.
Although the ammo nerf means you have to bring a secondary with a large reserve to compensate.
The change is welcome in my book.

>>2003748
so much has changed since 2023, just take an ammo box in place of a stamina shot, take the sprinting/stamina traits, you get 10 points on every hunter now anyway.

Larian and Owlcat would be my first two choices. Owlcat's entire career is making games with other IP's and they handled 40k excellently, so they could do star wars. They also make excellent turn based tactical crpg's which are my favorite type. The pseudo-rtwp that dragon age and kotor are is fine and I wouldn't complain if kotor3 was the same style but I just really love what owlcat did with rogue trader's combat and larian has been doing solid turn based games for many years already.
This is also why I'm excited for Zero Company. It's a x-com clone with that good turn based combat, but it also has a story and a team building element and decision making element that gives it a hint of rpg, so hopefully it's close to what we want.

I don't trust bioware anymore. They used to be one of my favorite developers back in the day but veilguard was so bad that I honestly just consider them to have lost their talent. Which is not far from the actual truth, most of the people who built the studio in the 90's and 2000's are old and retired, and the new people who replaced them don't have the talent.

If we don't get a solid crpg studio, then I honestly wouldn't mind something like For Honor, where you have to place your lightsaber in response to what your opponent is doing. Jedi Survivor is a good game for lightsaber duels, but I'm very very tired of pressing the dodge button or the parry button and you just do it. I desire a lightsaber game that actually requires directional input and response times. Souls-likes are not as fun for me anymore because dodging is too ubiquitous.

>>2002939
Bethesda. Only because then the game came be modded to hell and back to my tastes and be enjoyable.

>>2002939
Might not be solid, but I want to see Warhorse studio attempt on a Star Wars game, their dueling system is fun enough if not a bit janky when its 1vX.

New Toga ability: remove yourself from the game

Player base is all poor spiteful browns now its insane how low skill and no teamwork they all are. Don't you dare hurt their fragile egos though they'll spend the next 20 minutes trying their hardest to fuck you over because they tie their worth to digital badges

the 3030 and the triple take should swap places in the care package it doesn't make sense that a floor loot gun should completely outclass a care package gun

>>2003181
The marksman all need a good nerf desu theyre extremely overpowered. The triple take would just become ubiquitous again if it swapped with the 30

>>2003355
It would still be an improvement the triple take isn't as oppressive as the 3030. I do agree that marksmans are too dominant and make snipers mostly irrelevant.

i didn't see anyone talk about the upcoming map changes, but thoughts?
https://worldoftanks.eu/en/news/general-news/2-0-1-map-rebalance/

Fjords is getting off my perma ban list, they deleted a whole ass mountain up the north of the map.
a lot of good light tank maps are gonna get nerfed for LTs though, because of how brawl-centric the map changes are turning out to be, like Erlenberg and Highway.

recommend anons complete as many Assistance missions as possible in the sector 3 mission campaign before this patch goes live.

>>2003857
until they remove m*nes or relegate it to T4 max, I'm not interested in any map changes

>>2003857
Can't tell how good these changes are yet. The removal of the beach on overlord is good tho, I'm tired of seeing retard going down there and cost me the game.

>>2003874
the overlord beach was fun to brawl with others as a gentleman's agreement in the first few days of the 2.0 patch release, until the TDs and SPGs started going down there too a week later. i'm going to miss it a few years down the line

For me, i wasnt even good and below 1.0 k/d. I was just happy to be part of all the big battles. In a way the game never felt lonely to me and that's what kept me playing.

>>1992094
desu theres too much to do in PS2 that KDR tracking feels antithesis to the flow of battle

Worse are the autists that track score/hr as a metric when all that's good at showing is farming efficiency and actively punishes any downtime between battles or pre-battle setup or logistics (what little logi there is)

I quit because after years of clinging to my nostalgia for Planetside 1, I realized I didn't need to spend my gaming time frustrated with a fundamentally broken and malformed game that is well and truly beyond any hope of salvation.

My only regret is that 2 has been such a headache with a poor reputation there's now probably slim to zero hope for a 3rd, functional, actually decent entry.

A low pop but fundamentally good game would be worth playing.

>>2002936

People were scared she would be broken but everyone forgot about her when it turned out Cypher and KJ are still the king and queen of sentinels.

>Tejo
Stupidly OP on release, he has the best molotovs in the game which eventually got a righteous nerf. He still has the best scouter drone by the way but don't tell anybody.

>Waylay
A strange mishmash of Jett, Chamber and Neon, her shtick is jumping in, hopefully getting a kill then teleporting back out and then all you have left is a conc nade. Largely forgotten because she doesn't do any specific thing as well as Jett, Chamber or Neon.

>Veto
Freshly released. The initial impression is that he's buttfucking broken; he has 2 rendezvous anchors, an alarm bot except better and most importantly, a projectile nullication sphere that ruins any attempt at using util to enter a site; His ult makes him immune to ALL utility for the ENTIRE ROUND... for only 7 ult points . If that wasn't enough, he also gets a combat stim and out-of-combat health regen.

Veto will probably be nerfed after a few months of everyone pointing out how freaking obviously imba he is, but we all know Riot is doing this shit on purpose to tempt players back in with the allure of easy wins in ranked in order to revive interest in the game.

>>1999846

>A strange mishmash of Jett, Chamber and Neon >she doesn't do any specific thing as well as Jett, Chamber or Neon.
is very accurate. two abilities devoted to her dive in/jump back sucks up a lot of her kit, which is too much without fully committing to that dive playstyle
