I keep using them just for fun but always regret it instantly
bettina looks and sound cool but its completely useless against anything and loses durability faster than any other gun
I literally cant tell the difference between a moded bobcat and stitcher
tempest is fun but also kinda useless since its mediocre at medium range AND close range so why would you ever bring it?

If anything the Stitcher wins on just being much cooler looking, and an angry little bastard that wants to jump out of your hands when magdumping. The Bobcat sort of looks like shit

what the actual fuck devs

it can't onetap either small flying arc, you can't use it beyond close-med range because the shot spread is so fucking wide EVEN WITH A PURPLE STOCK AND VERTGRIP, and it's very meh against players
this was a waste of resources, not that they matter because every high-tier gun is a waste of resources, but still
am I going to be just as disappointed when I get around to scrounging a couple of queen reactors for the jupiter and equalizer?

kind of sucks to have to play this game around the expedition, but that's how it goes
>>
>>555624081
Nope. Soloing into squad matches is more fun because you don't have to deal with carrying anchor teammates. I queue solo in 1 v 3 then instigate fights between nearby trios. Either that or I Mysterious Stranger big ARC with explosives and then leave on a grapple hook. Sometimes people will STILL try to kill me despite the fact I saved their entire ass squad from being obliterated by Rocketeers, Bastions, or Bombardiers. The nerve of these niggers.

group players / pvp players don't "think" like you would expect a functioning human to, they just see movement and shoot because COD/BF/Tarkov monkey brain go brrrrr

>>555627292
Only time a Trio player didn't shoot me on sight it was a woman. I helped her kill a Surveyor with sticky nades. Her teammates rolled up a couple minutes later and I immediately left them alone, didn't even let them catch a glimpse of me, because I knew one of her buddies would start itching to gun me down and laugh about it.

never had that bug, damn
>>
Probably a skill issue in some way but I really feel like most PvP fights are largely determined by who shoots who first and it's just kinda tiresome. The amount times I have been able to recover from getting shot in the back and being able to win is pretty low because of how having to reshield and heal in this game works. I have to run smoke grenades most of the time. Fuck the Ferro btw.
>>
>>555628934
it was highlighted because you had it waypointed

I always tag "near" extracts because of that, instead of "on" them

>Probably a skill issue in some way but I really feel like most PvP fights are largely determined by who shoots who first and it's just kinda tiresome
that is absolutely, 100% a skill issue (not hating btw). All players are playing by the same rules, so if someone is able to shoot you in the back, it means they did something that you didn't.

Building position, like in chess, is an "invisible" skill that determines how the game goes. Ideally, you want to be fashionably late to every fight, and that often means playing the game counter-intuitively.

seems like some people are doing trials in 1v3

haven't run into PvP but people are arc hunting
>>
>>555633202
I've flipped opinion on 1v3s. In normal solos, the name of the game is ganking. In 1v3s, ganking is no longer a guaranteed strategy and the game plays much differently.

sorry you got your lunch money taken so many times. must remind you of middle school

>>555629490
Kinda, not really, maybe?
Most fights in solo/duo start and end before the shooting begins through infohogging/postitioning. It's still giga gay regardless because of the TPP, which is why combat sucks.

TTK needs to go up, this game needs to allow everyone one big mistake to be made in combat, else solo PvP will never get fixed.

Seriously, what the fuck can be done about freeloading niggers who steal your fucking loot without helping you once? Once you kill shit that is of any value, they all swarm it like rats. This was in Chungartha too, I hate this community so fucking much.

I need advice from an actual French rider, regarding (mandatory?) helmet stickers.
This summer I'll do a multi week tour across the northern french coast and apparently you're supposed to wear reflective stickers on all 4 sides and the top of your helmet. If the cops stop you and your helmet doesn't have those reflectors, they can prohibit you from driving any further.

Question: do I have to put on literal reflective bars on my helmet or can it be any kind of reflective sticker, like yoshimura logos etc?

Pro tip: Trigger nades are the best tool to cull PvE players. You can throw them without LoS and the radius is enough to damage multiple at once. If you carry multiple stacks in your hotbar it will automatically equip the next stack, allowing you to spam up to 15.
I once downed 4 friendlies with a single trigger nade while they looted a bastion.

I think it was even more than that, I used to think Officer was a fuckhead, but now I know they've been friends since the beginning and his attitude makes more sense

NTA but he rubbed me the wrong way when he first started Arc Raiders and basically didn't care about anything Peanut was trying to explain and then begged Peanut to bring in "loot" nothing specific, but because he was poor, I guess that's something you do in Tarkov
then same stream he's like
>this is so weird

Seems like the game clicked for him though. He keeps on playing it. I get it though, Tarkov is still a lot different than Arc and Tarkov players are die hard. Surprised Peanut hasn't really gone back to it.

Kek. I only have 800/800. I did blow through the entire hockey set in one go with all the creds I did have prior to the cap being added. Also, for all the money this dude makes streaming, his coin amount is the same it would be from all the free ones he got, meaning even he doesn't buy any of the skins.

Peanut farms before stream. As other streamers has killed him and cloakzy while their streams were off by randomly encountering them. Peanut burns through his entire stash playing the clown and running into gunfire with braindead aggressive plays. Great to watch when it catches players off guard and wipes them, equally great when Peanut gets btfo in the attempt.

How is it making money? You can get trinkets from nearly all the containers on buried shitty. I get my money sprinting between all the mechanical accelerator/exodus module spawns on stella since they are rarely looted. My best run was like 8 accelerators and 4 modules and only took 5 minutes

>>555659671
the kettle "nerf" only affected cheating faggots who used clickmacros
it's functionally identical to before for any "normal" player

everything else is a valid complaint

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the game was released with zero expectations and it completely unexpectedly exploded in popularity overnight.

Now they have absolutely no fucking clue what they're doing, and are so terrified of accidentally killing the golden goose that every update is nothing but attempts to fix bugs, and tiny completely inconsequential changes and "wow it's fucking nothing" game modifiers.

>>555659927
the nests have massive loot pool bonuses applied, you can very quickly collect multiple stacks of blue and purple trinkets without even going inside a building once - which ironically makes it a really nice place to farm the "normal" hotspots since everyone is ignoring them in favor of nests

I would say it’s a good thing that kettle got nerfed but I genuinely wonder if ask you people claiming it’s just cheaters with macros are delusional

Still, thinking most people believe anything past 9 clicks per second is macros is funny
>>
>>555664121
>replying to a post from 7 hours ago
So what. Not gonna lie, burletta is pretty good and the headshot damage is nice but that fact that venator can drop a person in 3 clicks is just absurd
>>
>>555664270
I agree, but until pinks get buffed, shields get buffer, and venator/toro get tweaked (why does the 2 tap up to 20meter shotgun need 8 bullets and a 6+ mag attachment?) all they did was reduce the meta by 1 weapon.
>>
>>555664275
I think its macros if they also have perfect aim. I can do high CPS, but my mouse shakes all over the damn place because jitter clicking is just some stupid minecraft meme where the person you are clicking on takes up 80% of your screen. When someone does over 8cps on me while I'm running 20-30 meters away, taking up less than 5% of their screenspace, that nigger is either macro cheating or aimbot cheating.

Also what about controller players? I can get like 15cps on a controller bumper, so all of those players got nerfed as well.
>>
weapon and equipment balance across the board is dogshit

no headshot multipliers should be applied while shields are active
explosive damage should not leak through to the HP bar while shields are active
shields need to soak more damage / be more effective overall

those changes alone would improve things by massively boosting TTK, and allow them breathing room to actually start fucking balancing weapons

>>555665605
Shields don't "soak" damage, they reduce your incoming damage by a percentage. When the shield goes down you lose the incoming damage reduction.
Heavy shields are a 50% reduction already. The issue is that you don't understand how shields are MEANT to work. They're not an extra health bar.

>>555669743
>>555670532
i personally cant recall any games that have shields that only apply as a damage reduction. shields typically are a second health bar. honestly thats on embark for just calling them shields instead of dampener shields or something like that heck theres not even anywhere in game that specifies how they work outside of experiencing it.
>>
>>555670532
Again, I just assume its people who come in from other games expecting shields to work the same way they always do. Logically, it makes more sense for them to work how they do in Arc Raiders.
Shields are great at a few things, like preventing one shots, giving a reason for magazine upgrades to exist beyond PvE reasons and actually allowing you to react rather than dying in literally half a second.
This game's got a pretty fast time to kill yea, but people I think really don't understand the obvious ways to succeed based on the way the game is set up.
Heavy shields will help against shotguns and explosives, they will not really help against light/medium fire weaponry, in fact nearly none of the shields will stop a Stitcher/rapid fire gun from melting you. If you're unsure as to which the best way to kill someone is, its using a rapid fire weapon that has a large magazine or using explosives to break the shields or wear them down enough (hence why people run triggers/il toro/anvil/stitcher all the time) and then killing them as fast as possible.

If they were to make shields a second health bar then this game would basically be night and day between those who don't have them and those that do, and you'd be stupid for not carrying the heavy shield around with you. It would also mean fights would take forever since shield regen is faster and you don't need a blueprint for surge rechargers as opposed to bandages which heal slowly over time, fabric which is even slower than Arc Powercells and Vita shots would be even more useless than they already kinda are.
It would also make PvE even more of a joke than it is right now.

>>555670930
If people go 10 hours in and don't know how shields work then its their fault, you're told there is a direct damage reduction with values, you're can visually see your health decrease even with shields. Of all the things people can complain about, misunderstanding how shields work is not it.

>>
>>555671337
yep
>>
>>555671285
i mean sure it tells you there is a damage reduction but again usually that applies to the shields health until the shield breaks in most game. but as you said it does show your health going down but i bet most people dont notice that right away and just think its damage that was carried over from their shield breaking. i believe in games like fortnite thats how it works your shield breaks from a sniper and any excess damage carries over to your health.

Guys I think i broke my dick a little. Just got back from date night with my girl. She jerked me off in my pants when I was driving her home so I cummed in my underwear. But lately I started taking meds for my insomnia one of the side effects is it changes my cum like its stickier. But when its dry its almost like super glue and it seems to dry quick too. So by the time I got home it had dried up and I forgot. So I went to take a piss and I felt a slight pain as my piss blasted open me cum sealed tip and piss nearly went everywhere for a split second. Then I noticed a little of blood in the bowl. From what I can see to force of the piss made a slight split inside my urethra. Now my dick tip burns a little.

Genuinely asking everyone what is their opinion of the Stitcher? I think it's just pretty silly how over powered it is. It is arguably the best weapon for any situation that isn't PVE.

Other guns might theoretically be better, but the ease of use, low ammo of ammo necessary to make it good, etc, just makes it the best. Attachments make it even easier and better to use and it is a very comparably useful weapon even outside of close range. Even if you are shot 2nd, it's high ROF allows you to 'turn the tide' easily and if your enemy misses shots/is bad, you can very easily take them out. Extremely easy to craft and find (sometimes you can get free level 4 stitchers from supply drops!).

I find it strange they haven't nerfed the fuck out of this gun. Even against a heavy shield, it's a very good weapon. Why is it so good? I've probably been killed/have killed with the stitcher more than any other weapons in the game COMBINED
>>
>>555680392
>sometimes you can get free level 4 stitchers from supply drops
you can? the most i've seen was a lv3 one from a raider cache
>>
>>555676271
Shields just need to be twice as good at all levels. If it takes 5 bullets to break a shield it should actually take 10. Idk the exact math but you can break a shield in like .3 seconds, which is so fast most human beings on earth can't react to it (average reaction time is like 250ms or something). It takes no skill to shoot first and land shots first and once your shield is gone you're in such a bad position (no shield, low HP) that your attacker has every advantage against you that you're pretty much already dead.

Fights should be more about skill and who can shoot better/have better tactics/etc. As it is, all that matters is shooting first.
>>
>>555680571
You can get level 4s of any weapon as far as I know from supplies. Gotten level 4 stitchers, hairpins, etc; and have also gotten level 3 torrentes/renegades/etc.
>>
>>555680392
The problem is a combination of it being a low cost high dps weapon and this game's shields being absolute dogshit, you could be running a heavy shield and someone with a lvl 1 stitcher and a green mag will oneclip you if they start shooting first and arent braindead, I really do not understand what they were thinking when they made it so all guns go trough shields and health at the same time, that shit should be reserved to some pvp specific blue/epic gun that should be dog shit at killing arc or whatever, they either gotta change how shields work or make it so the stitcher has a chance to jam randomly because at this point there is literally no purpose using anyhthing else, I feel bad how many bodies I stack using this piece of shit

>>
>>555681657
This is more of a case of "I guess" than anything else. I mean, I don't really know what to say? For example, if someone spawns, then another person spawns right behind them and shoots them in the back ASAP, is that really more "skillful"? Lets say you have the best player in the game and the worst player in the game, the worst player is sitting in a dark corner and is waiting for the other player. They run in and the bad player face fucks the best player with a stitcher and kills them, does that suddenly make them the best player? Or even just a totally random encounter, a player opens a door at the same time another was there too, one player has the stitcher (a grey weapon) and the other a renegade (a blue weapon); the guy with the stitcher is far more likely to win because it shoots faster, does more DPS, and is easier to use. That just really shouldn't be the case? There actually are many times (from your perspective and theirs) that you aren't "playing by the same rules" because of any number of factors.

There's too many random non-skill oriented questions here. If shields were better and the stitcher wasn't so good, I think most players would have a much better time with the PVP, ratting wouldn't be so good, and using a "low tier" weapon wouldn't be as prevalent. You would also see much more variety in the game with weapon use. I frankly don't think anyone of any skill, game time, or status, could argue why the stitcher needs to be where it is; anyone with half a brain can understand why it should be nerfed or at the very least changed for the better.

Well unfortunately (in solos especially) this game is at the end of the day an extraction shooter, where the rat sitting in the dark with a """"tactically superior position""""" will mostly win the gunfight, the sad part is that the PVE in this game is so fun but doing it puts you at a huge disadvantage, I assume it will eventually degenerate into full Escape from Ratkov and thats it...

Fuck off with this stupid ass nigger brained logic. You will NEVER be able to control EVERY single encounter no matter how well you play, how careful you are, how smart you are, or how much you "win the fight before the fight even started" faggot. There will always be a time where someone surprises you from behind and if that person shoots you first you will die with practically 0 counter play. It's fucking retarded and the game should have a better TTK and balance. You can still "win the fight before the fight even started" and have better positioning and situational awareness, but it won't be a completely free kill like it currently is and that's the best possible outcome. Now fuck off back to CoD if you want instant death twitch reflex shooting.

And whether you like it or not anon, that is the reality of the genre. That is, in fact, a part of this genre. You will, absolutely, be surprised by someone who comes out from behind you because that is the nature of an open map with numerous angles, with a million different tools at your disposal with unpredictable random spawns.

You can ONLY do so much in extraction shooters, survival shooters, in a majority of shooters if your guard is down then you are dead. In extraction shooters, the TTK is extremely fast, that's how its always generally been. You can only top up your shields so much, you can only cover yourself with nades and mines and barricades and god knows what else, eventually you're gonna die, everyone's gonna die.
Being careful, aware and alert might not always directly save you in a gunfight, some people are opportunists who will judge threats based on their awareness and if their guns are out, if they're looking in their direction, etc.

>>
>>555687486
it just makes trio lobbies even easier for trios because from what I gathered, you aren't actually adding on solos to an already "full" lobby of trios. Trio slots are replaced in entirety by solo players
so suddenly people who play as trios have a distinct advantage on the playing field. It essentially makes for clubbing seals for trios, and trios are going to shoot solos on sight anyway, legitimately NO reason for them not to.

Cheaters have ESP to look at loot and other player's weapons anon why in the world would they go into trios to obviously flaunt them cheating? Most cheaters want some plausable deniability. That's the skill. They're more likely to be killed in trios via bullshit too, its a lose-lose for cheaters.

How do people like Shroud and tfue even have audiences when they have the personality of cardboard? Is it just esports worship or something?

>>555669743
no anon, I am fully aware of how shields work, and my post doesn't contradict that at all

in the context of this game, "soaking more damage" means having more shield health, and attenuating a higher percentage of incoming damage while that health remains

>>555672725
it's fucking dumb and pointless
a better aug would have been one with a dedicated musical instrument augmented slot and 2x safe pockets

>>555698331
So a rat fuck can't have it? Are you dumb? Plus they sell for 5k. If I don't find a decent person to give a dupe to, I'm not going to let a fucking rat have it. Wolfpacks and keys are dime a dozen. BPs aren't. Dumby. Idiot.

wonder if its time to do the trials, or if I should wait another day
>>
>>555699486
the best time to start trials is wed-thurs shortly after typical dinner time for your region

that gets you in the "working adult player" more casual queue like >>555651870
>>
>>555700009
I've been trying to join at different times just to get general idea and get the worst luck later in the day, my mid-day joins seem to be fine
could just be confirmation bias or being in daredevil queue
>>
>>555699486
wait for what?
>>
>>555700306
when you do a trial it places you sequentially on a leaderboard with other people just starting to the trials

by waiting for later in the week, the goal is to avoid the sweat leaderboards filled with trios that "abuse" the scoring system to get a high score

so far seems like the worst days to join the leaderboards are the first 2 days, and retarddit hasn't caught onto this yet, so you don't have too many sweats "exploiting" this, generally you get put on a list of 99 other players that either aren't paying attention to the leaderboards, or can't farm high scores because of how little they can play, it's just get the 3* and move on. and I've had leaderboards that reflected that where the bottom 50 are all <20k (20k is average for full 3* trials and stopping)
and al lthe demoted players were <4k, meaning they probably didn't even try that week

if you get on the leaderboard early or during a time where sweats are playing, it can be filled with 100k+ scores from people farming trios

tl:dr some of us want the leaderboard rewards and exploit the system to get them, but the rewards really don't matter
>>
>>555699486
fyi it's gonna get easier in hotshot because the ranking is global instead of retarded individual brackets, you need to be top 30% to keep the rank.
>>
>>555700878
huh, neat, another reason to pretend trials don't exist, thanks anon
>>
>>555700935
I'm just hoping its not too sweaty
Fucked up last week and got on the leaderboards on the first day, so I was stuck in non-promotion while every +1-+2 was 100k+
>>
>>555700935
>top 30%
my bad, i meant 30th percentile, or top 70%
>>
>>555701370
It's a lot smoother, I'm doing basic bitch trial runs with almost no sweat and it's enough

This week I just did a good run for bastions/leapers/rocketeers on ems dam and played the game as normal the rest of the week.
I'll probably do night stella with buddies for pops and call it a day.

Holy fucking shit. How do I get this fucking game to stop crashing all the time?

meh, the game does not prevent you from taking blueprints back into a raid, or dropping blueprints within a raid, so trading or muling them is patently not cheating

downloading a cracked version obviously is though (not the trading with yourself part)

Just realized with this post the devs are helping blueprint RMTs for china. Enable farming for the chinese prisoners to mass produce blueprints of all kinds, then cut off the valve. After various tuning and nerfing of spawn rates and multiple expeditions these blueprints will retain value to be sold for more money than real merchandise. Once money goes to China it doesn't come back out, big bucks combined with cheat subscriptions for idiots that throw their lunch money out to cheat and escape their misery for the dollar.
Americans vendor their BPs, chinamen sell them for real money.

if I understand your original meaning, there would essentially be a new version of every blueprint for every wipe, no?

venator.season1
venator.season2
venator.season3
etc

that gets fucky really fast, and adds up to a substantial amount of overhead, and what about people who don't do the reset at all? do they find "blueprint.theirseason" or "blueprint.currentseason"?

lots of downsides I see for no real benefit
>>
>>555724852
you should be able to easily get 2 kills per run on dam, if not more, assuming "leapers" aren't in the current trials rotation

just bring a hullcracker and a couple of stacks of ammo, or a couple of stacks of trailblazers
>>
>>555729492
yea, but if you learn the blueprint, then its not like it resets for a casual player, you still have access to it, but if you do the expedition now you are forced to learn the "new" blueprints, instead of someone trading you a bunch
basically just update the consumable every expedition, but obviously don't make people have to relearn them for the workshop
its literally just to stop blueprint hoarding/trading
>>
I got a blueprint called "Deadline" is that good?
>>
>>555729801
why bother stopping it though? what's the actual benefit?

gear balance is so dogshit that the only actually valuable/relevant blueprints are purely for comfort - snaphook, surv3, defib, vitaspray etc

Yes, and anon's shield and all his damage resistance was lost the moment he actually had his CROSSHAIR on him. Anon fucking got shot, looked back at the guy shooting him, LOOKED AWAY and then came back again ready to place his crosshair anywhere close.
It would be a different situation if anon was carrying a stitcher/bobcat/temp but they were carrying an Anvil that requires you can place your shots, ideally headshots. If you're relying on your snap aim to carry you in an encounter then you need better awareness and you need better cover.

it makes legendary weapons more viable at every level of ABMM merely by existing. players have been asking for it more than they've been asking for a "bard augment" or whatever. it's also a handy kit for cleaning out shredders in stella montis, since the hullcracker works great on them and heavy shields let you tank a third shotgun hit. you're just a terminal contrarian who can only perceive the world through the lens of petty criticism
>>
>>555724852
Spam EMS as well you can sometimes get them from couriers

>>555741482
It makes huge difference because it has almost doubled charge capacity compared to light which means you take reduced damage for longer.
>>
>>555741872
NTA, but it keeps freekit niggers from resupplying with your ammo if they manage to kill you. It starves them out, letting someone else kill them easier. It's a clever resource-denial move.
>>
Holy fuck people can't read and it shows.
The benefits of medium shields is that the damage resistance lasts longer than the light. 2.5% damage resistance is nothing, much like 5% movement speed (which is decreased with the skill anyway)
I swear half this general probably priortizes their shield rather than health

Automatic weapons DO NOT FUCKING CARE about your shields. Mediums work well against high-damage low-rof stuff because of the extra charge.

It's an advantage sure, but it's so miniscule it makes close to no diff.
Getting chipped once on a reposition already nullifies that advantage, and getting ambushed or getting shot first makes you wonder why the fuck did you wear those shields in the first place.
You have a much higher chance of turning a fight against a stitcherfag by abusing TPP while he pushes you into cover, not by equipping better shields.

You are assuming 100% accuracy with zero conditions like lines of sight or engagement positions. Medium shield provides a tangible benefit against Stitcher users - Not enough for me to use it personally but it's definitely not useless.

>>555744281
I am assuming solo PvP where your gear is worth jack shit because of how combat works there due to initiative.
In trios? Different story because the combined increased longevity for the team is actually worth a damn because you have cover from allies.

Heavy shields still suck ass fucking balls outside of stella only if you meet toro spammers because it allows you to live a 3rd shot.
>>
>the stitcher is broken! you can't react to it and you don't have any counterplay
>"anon the shields reduce incoming damage so you have more time to react than if you didnt have shields"
>sure its an advantage but its so miniscule
Maybe you just have bad positioning then? Most people are not running heavy shields, you have a higher damage resistance than they do, so you do have more time to react and melt them down.
If you're complaining about EVERYONE using a stitcher then use one yourself and get the drop on people. If you're complaining that you can't fight back then use the Stitcher with the damage resistance from the heavy/medium shields as your buffer.

You being caught out, unaware and not paying attention to sound is what gets you killed, not the shields sucking.
Constant fucking complaining from people in this general against rock-solid numbers and verifyable proof of how the game works who don't understand how to use the tools given to them effectively and don't know the very basics of holding cover.
"waaahh people holding angles and sitting in corners" while they absolutely refuse to hold angles themselves and cover and run out into the open to open a container and get shot in the back.

I'm not that anon but they aren't wrong either, free kitters don't have IV stitchers nor do they have any attachments. 20 rounds, unless they are literally hitting every shot on you (in which case you are standing still or being shot in the back while you loot), they WILL have to reload. If they decide to bring in an IV stitcher with attachments? Sure, I think its broken too. Free kitters don't have them.

You are bad at shooters anon.

>>555744861
Headshots exist, anon, i've killed plenty of heavy shield users with a freenig kit in a mag, didn't help them one bit.
If the headshot multiplier wasn't as retarded as it is (2.5x) I would agree.

defib is 240s, charger is 120s

>>
>>555745395
headshots/hoeadshot damage shouldn't be a thing if the target's shield is active

that would directly buff medium and heavy shields without needing to touch anything else about them and meaningfully increase TTKs
>>
>>555745246
He doesnt have to mag dump you, if he even makes half of his shots to your body, youre at such a disadvantage even with pink or blue gear that as soon as he reloads and pushes you, youre dead. I would like heavier shields to take more than an extra 2 and 4 bullets than the lightest shield but idk thats just me.
>>
>>555745635
No, you should be rewarded for headshots anytime, just not as much as we are now.

Rescale the headshot mods from 1.35x-2x instead of 1.5x-2.5x and bump shield deflect by ~10% across the board.

>>555745648
I would rather have heavy shields have slows me down by 25% but makes me a tank than these insignificant "upgrades".

>>555745395
Blaming the gear and items in the game for not covering your own faults of just being completely unaware is a different argument.
Yes, the gear (overall) really at the moment doesn't matter. That doesn't mean that the gear gives you more time to react, higher survivability and an advantage against other players.
>>555745648
Yes anon in a game where TTK is this fast, whoever shoots and lands as many shots on the other player first will win.
The point is that you should either be engaging the other player first or you should be reacting fast enough so your buffer matters.
10 rounds of the Stitcher to your body is not a fault of the shields or the items/gear in game, its the fault of you being unaware, standing still or being up close to someone.
Unless you are running through a hallway in Stella or get caught in a blind spot/height advantage, it is YOUR fault though, your are at a disadvantage because of YOUR own actions. Jesus christ, detach yourself from shields and whatever rarity gear and imagine it was just 100HP for everyone. Shields are a damage resistance buff, you should play the same way you would without shields. Cautiously.

See someone running around like a headless chicken in Stella medical? Unless they're about to pull exploits out their ass with an Il Toro, you have the advantage by shooting at them first. Do it.

Anon, if you meet a stitcher user as a stitcher user, same health but different shields, who do you think is going to win?
The answer, the one who shoots first
The answer on paper, the one with the better shields
You wanna win against the bum wearing the cheapest gear? Shoot first. Be the instigator. That's the whole point of having the better gear.
Its that or accept you are going to die, which is a natural part of the game.
Free kits do not have the resources to heal/recharge unless you die for them or they kill Arc. And them fighting Arc is a perfect opportunity for you to kill them first.

You're looking at it from perspective of tanking entire mag in your face which isn't how every encounter goes down. You take damage, reposition, pop rechargers and bandages. This is where the advantage is. I get 70 hp with medium + I can pop blue recharger for another 50 hp in 5sec. That's total 120 hp of 42% damage mitigation. Yeah man totally "JUST ONE MORE BULLET".

well yes, thats the point of better gear, significantly increase your chance of survival with no skill on your part. thank you for finally understanding. and if we have both equal gear and skill, if i get shot first i should lose 100% of the time. but if we have both equal skill but different gear and i shoot the better gear, i should only equalize the playing field, not have an advantage.

because if the better gear isnt better in a looter shooter, then do away with rarity levels entirely.

>>555748738
>Yea and the gear in game provides benefits for you.
pink shield tanking an addtional 4 bullets is not a good benefit. bobcat and tempest being straight up worse is not even 1% of a benefit, its just worse. legendary guns being shitty is not a benefit. my pink and blue gear should be 10x better than they are now.

you keep bringing up skill when that isnt the discussion, its how worthless the higher tier gear is compared to its rarity vs the lower level stuff which is usually 95% just as good or outright better.
>>
>>555748951
Nigger you keep neglicting the fact you suck ass.
Everyone knows the rarity guns above uncommon suck apart from the Renegade and Venator. It takes one or two uses of them to clock that in. That's never been my position. This entire time we've been talking about shields, not guns. Shields are the biggest direct benefit in terms of rarity that you can carry.
You don't seem to understand that there IS a difference between the player who runs light shields in comparison to heavy/medium. It does provide benefit. Go ahead, run light shields if you want but you'll melt in front of people. Run no shield even if you want! Do it.

If the gear provides no benefit at all then why are you running shields?

That's whats so funny to me. So many of you Low IQ retards will bitch and cry about streamers being posted, but also be the worse players because you didn't learn how to play better from any of the pvper content creators.

How do you think you're going to get better if you don't learn from people who can play better than you? FYI I don't think there's any big streamers who will agree with you that the tempest and bobcat are worse or that blue shields don't matter vs green shields.

Maybe you are just fucking stupid and or ignorant and bad at the game.

>>555749308
>no benefit

i said not a GOOD benefit, i should be able to tank more. read, can you do this simple task?
>its how worthless the higher tier gear is compared to its rarity vs the lower level stuff which is usually 95% just as good or outright better.
you melt just as fast in your blue compared to green. 2 triggers to the face across the board, explain to me how that is a good benefit? blues dying to 2 torro shots same as a green. explain how that is a good benefit? purple tanking a whopping one more torro shot at the cost of being slow, in a game where everything is already slow and being slower puts you at a significant disadvantage.

those are not good benefits. tanking a couple more bullets to the face is not a good benefit. of course in pvp you always take the shield that grants you more bullets even if its half a bullet but the entire point is that half bullet is SHITTY. get that through your thick skull.

Everyone. Stitcher is actually better at mid-range than the tempest and bobcat, can beam heads all day long while the other two bloom hard as fuck. Bobcat gets an edge face to face but at that point you're whipping out your torro anyways which completely mogs a bobcat unless your standing in an area with no cover.

Are you fucking stupid? Heavy shields absolutely make a difference.
Again, does this general understand anything about how basic fucking math works? You can tank MORE SHOTS. You can decrease incoming damage more from all sources. The cost is genuinely not even that much. If 2 voltage converters, the easiest fucking material in the game to get is too much for you and opening one arc probe proves difficult for you then stop playing the game.
Anvil does 50 damage. Cut it in half with heavy shields. You can take another Anvil shot before the shield breaks. You can't on light. Goes for a bunch more guns like the Ferro, shotguns, explosives.

The heavy shield is literally the best option if you're trying to cover yourself against what, 3/4 of the most used items in the game (triggers, anvil, il toro).
This general is full of people who've never played an extraction shooter and it fucking shows. From the absolute drivel of "i should be able to cover up for being absolutely dogshit with my high rarity items" to "ARC Circuitry is just too expensive to get".

Literally does not matter. You can take it down to 7.5% with skills you should have already. If you're not running those then you've exposed how fucking stupid you are.
>gets cracked in 2 shots
And you take less health damage because the percentage it takes off is 50%, not 42.5%, which is 2.5% more than the light, which is fucking nothing.

So, are you pretending to be retarded at this point? Because at this point I have to believe you're just being retarded on purpose.
>>555751160
Genuinely some people are so committed to the idea of higher rarity things being bad that everything higher rarity must be bad, that's the only way I can rationalize it. Guns? No one would argue. Shields? Augments? Literally the two things that justify their rarity (at least some of the augments).
Some people overrate how difficult it is to craft things. Augments are cheap as fuck. Shields are cheap as fuck, you genuinely just have to grab 2 voltage converters and if you don't want to open a single probe then shoot down some Arc and go run Stella or any map. You'll get Advanced Electric Components easily. Genuienly, they're so easy to get.

>>555753087
NTA, but to be fair an extra anvil/toro shot does make a difference, the only time shields actually give you some form of notable advantage is when they go against high-damage low-rof weaponry because ~0.8s of TTK is significant comparative to ~0.08s.

Fag's delusional about everything else though.
>>
>>555752749
Go ahead, run your shit and keep playing at a disadvantage anon for literally no other reason than "its too expensive to shoot a couple of arc and loot like 2 server racks".
>>555753087
Yes, 7.5% speed reduction doesn't matter if you're taking it in the assumption you're going to be in PvP. What actually matters in fights is holding cover, angles, rolls and smokes/utilities and who has first shot. 7.5% more movement speed will not save you in a fight. Another player needing to land another Anvil? Il Toro? Yes, that matters.

>>555752451
That's just borderline p2w game design territory. Better gear shouldn't be a deciding factor in who wins the fight. I'd even argue that's why most people are actually satisfied playing Arc Raiders. Medium and Heavy shields don't actually provide a lot of advantage for a bad player who stands still like a dummy at firing range and dies trying to win DPS race. What you get is more capacity for a health management. Light shield is often out after just 1 fight.
>>
they definitely messed with courier spawns. I'm only able to find two a raid now. lots of the spawn points don't spawn anything
>>
>>555753615
>What actually matters in fights is holding cover, angles, rolls and smokes/utilities and who has first shot.
And that movement speed applies to everything, your running your rolls your sliding. It absolutely matters. Why do you think all the streamers roll a blue and not pink? Someone like Tfue or Cloakzy? Dont tell me you are better than those guys too. Speed allows you to get that better positioning which in your own words is king, first shot matters and speed allows that. Being a tick slower matters a whole fucking lot more than an extra 2 stitcher bullets.

Then do away with colors. Better gear being a deciding factor is the extraction shooter mantra. Otherwise what the fuck am I looting for? For fun? I want better gear.
>>
>>555754393
If you're doing heavy PvP, you're not usually opening containers or filling up your inventory with per-slot-efficient loot.
I did a lot of heavy shield runs on stella for a 2 week period, and that extra cost stacked up quickly reducing my profit margins from raids even if I was extracting.

Mediums are the best shields in the game both practically and economically, it's not contestable.
>>
>>555754652
Also forgot to add, the "privilege" of being able to wear heavy shields usually fucks up your looting ability by a shitload, so you're even worse off economically than just 4k.

Yea I'm not better than those guys. What, maybe 2% of the playerbase is better than those guys? They're banking on hitting their shots (or using Il Toro exploits) and surprising people with rushing them.
You certainly ain't better either. 98% of the players ain't.
Again, heavy shields are literally an extra buffer. You don't need the buffer if your good at positioning you have good mobility.

This whole argument stemmed from the fact that heavy shields are "bad" because someone doesn't understand the very basics of how extraction shooters, third person shooters and basic logic in a video game goes down and complaining about dying to free kit rats, who aren't running anything on meta, who shouldn't have the advantage unless you give it to them. Complaining about how they don't have an advantage when what they're doing in-game goes against the entire point of having a heavy shield in the first place and would've died anyway if they had a medium shield or not.
There are people in this very thread >>555676271 who think medium shields need a buff because they're "too expensive" and that headshot damage shouldn't go through shields. There are people here saying they'd rather run fucking LIGHT shields than medium.

I guarantee you, these people are absolute dogshit at the game and that the problem isn't with shields, its with them.

I think the Ferro also zooms in further when you aim.

It's like a hive mind or mitosis. I'm not even queuing up into the 1v3 mode but I still have to deal with it because of just how chummy and buddy buddy these randoms get. Half the people I down I don't even get to loot because I need to run away and buy distance so I'm not getting ganked, and BECAUSE of how friendly these people are 60% of the time one of the randos will just have a defrib on them so you can't even come back later to pick the body clean

>>555766097
I try to, but when I'm taking too long because I'm trying to be as stealthy as possible then usually they bump into someone and immediately become friends. I've clocked it to the point that, on average, when I find a solo player it usually takes them 4-5 minutes before they link up with a random and then they're ride or die. It's really not a big window of oppurtunity to try and murder someone, and obviously the 4 minutes includes your escape window since most randos will assume you're KoS if you're looting a raider's body.

I wish aussies were more distrustful of one another.

You‘re doing good rn.
You want more stamina, less stamina drain, less fall damage, less time to breach, less time to reveal items and eventually chance to reveal 2 items at once, along with field crafting, advanced field crafting and secure breach (end of red tree). But max out the stamina and looting nodes you have opened already first.
The best perks in the skilltree are all about making the gameplay slightly less annoying, which is honestly not the best look for the game.

Does Equalizer BP drop in Harvester? 6 containers in a row have been Jupiter BP, and the last game I was able to open 2 in the same round. The other guy offered me a Jupiter BP in his third and I declined and left the Jupiters from my 2 containers in the Harvester for others to pickup.

I always hear people offering Jupiter BPs in the Harvester event, but never Equalizers.
>>
>>555773780
Yes.
Equalizer BP also unlocks the craft for energy ammo, no wonder people want it.

It it just much less common then? Or have I got astronomically bad RNG?

you take the DBNO nodes in yellow and green to make it easier to survive for your teammates to get you back up, if you only play trios

there's less focus on looting in trios since they're "just" for pvp, so you don't sink as many points in red (just enough to get the carry weight)

>>555767645
Best way is probes + couriers.
Spaceport/Dam on electromagnetic storms are your best bet honestly. Dam you want to be either near testing annex or you want to be near the old batteground, hydroponics or outpost near water treatment.

Alternatively, Buried City if you want coverage to see your blue beams as much as possible, but that'll come with issues too.

Spaceport you'll want a security checkpoint spawn, head by service and communications, then straight up against the two raider hatches on your way to Launch tower. The entire sand base around launch tower has again, shit load of spawns for couriers/probes. After that head to the Arrival Building, Fuel Depot, Warehouse. That'll be a lot of the cluster areas, but you can hit up Fuel lines/storage/maintainence hanger if you can spare the time or have a good extract location. You can alternate these and assume that you need to get to Launch tower as soon as possible and leave the outer stuff, but that comes with risks. You really don't need that many.

Yo crazy idea, they Lock loadouts to the augments, but you can only set the augments, shield, and weapons(and attachments). Meds, utility, and nades picked seperatly. Truncated crafting optiong for all of them, otherwise you have to seperately tab into the traders and spend dosh.
Kinda alleviates some issues, but overall sucks ass, seems perfect.

That's because they don't have the patented Arc Raider's companion tool by MetaForge. With this quick and easy to install app you can be on your A+ game in no time, with real time value checking and map pins to get all the loot you need without the worry of missing on something you need!

Does abmm consider time in raids or just not shooting anyone can I just load up 10 times surrender and get into friendly lobbies
>>
>>555785669
It considers time and what you do, the 10 times surrender rats get into rat lobbies with other rats trying to get into friendly lobbies so it becomes a mix of people just pretending to be friendly but not the real lobbies. There's a video on youtube going over this, you can't instantly surrender.

I picked up something I noticed Summit was doing a lot early on. He would put the valuable things at the bottom, the utility to right, guns to the left.

I started doing that and the shit I didn't care much about, even if it's "valuable" like mixtapes and snow globes to the top. or if it's just a single of something. It makes looting so much easier. But it's been a while since I've done max loot raids. Lately I'm just losing money doing trials, or only taking a few key things like springs, gun parts, and whatever else I'm low on.

What if I run to an extract and smack a couple arcs with my tool what’s the video?
>>
I NEED to get into a lobby like this, I will bring like 12 grenades into this party, I'm so bloodthirsty.

But how do I kill them all at once? If I setup the lift with trigger nades before they arrive in there will they notice them?

Surprisingly despite having only ~30 hours content and basically nothing for endgame and 75 levels it still holds very well.

That could work but you’ll have to ko anyone trying to hit the button

no wonder it take 10 minutes to find a lobby (which empty out after 15 min now btw, kind of defeating the whole purpose)

I really wish there was a no PVP mode some times. Trying to collect all these wasp/hornet drivers is driving me insane. Every single fucking time I accrue a good amount of them and try to extract some faggot has to rush me down and kill me. Yeah I try to fight back but the balance of the game is so fucking dumb and bad you just die in .5 seconds. Got 4 fucking retards at extract all shooting each other for no reason and wasting my time. Yeah I put a stack in my safe pocket[s] but it's still annoying as fuck to lose 6+ items I need that I can't safe pocket.

PVP in this game isn't engaging or fun, just aggravating.
>>
>>555787091
Very small map, you dont even need adrenaline shots.
>>
>>555787237
>deadline blows up and finishes them all

Too fast, I need to listen to their cries and screams for longer.
>>
>>555787456
You wont be able to kill off 2 downed players on both consoles with turtle crawl. You need the deadline or they are all getting back to speranza
>>
>>555787281
careful now anon, thats a very unpopular opinion, PVP is the backbone of this title and as of the latest patch is extremely balanced and in a good spot where both the attacker and defender are neither at an advantage starting the fight
>>
>>555787705
I mean, not really. The best tactic in the game is to shoot first, no matter where you are, who you're fighting, what their weapons/shields are, or what your weapons are. You gain a massive advantage shooting first that there is no reason not to really. Except for the fact I don't really need or want to do the PVP at all when I'm just trying to do something simple like "collect wasp drivers". If I'm not already in chungartha I also don't want to spend 30+ minutes of my life just running around dying to get there.

I would personally like a game mode you can select where you will have no PVP of any kind, basically loading in solo to a map. Loot chances should be decreased by a ton, like even 80% less, but at the very least I can do 'peaceful' looting like collecting arc parts.

Welp ive come to the conclusion im not gonna have a good time with pvp.
In solo its a skill issue, so bad that i get kicked back into carebear lobbies where people just run in the open with goop on the way to matriarch/queen and i feel bad for thinking about obliterating them.
Since i cant loot off the players, im trying to get better at looting in general but these other players are so fast, even when i spawn at the start of a raid, any decent spot is hit before or as i get there.
>>
what do you do when another raider downs you

I wait for the poorfag to kill me so I can make another loadout

>>555790161
>In solo its a skill issue
It arguably isn't in solo. Solo it's so easy to die that it's silly. You can and will die to a stitcher 1 in less than 1 second, like factually less than 1 second. You don't need "skill" at all to kill in this game especially in solo. Just shoot first, if you ever see anyone and you aren't going to let them go by, always shoot first. It puts you 'on top' 99% of the time. Even with the weaker weapons like a burletta it is always better and beneficial to shoot first. Even easier with good weapons like an il toro or torrente; a stitcher 4 with green attachments is one of the best weapons in the game

>>
>>555790835
Instantly surrender because I'm not about listening to some retarded larper or mouth breathing nigger talk for 30 seconds. I just go again. I also spam space bar during the loading screen after leaving a raid so I don't have to watch all that stat shit and just right to the menu. My time is very valuable.

What new gun do you want?

a dildo

>>555793291
Laser M14

Good for ARC (but not armor) and shield breaking (but not health). Green or blue weapon.

I think a 2 handed map spawn only rocket launcher (like an EAT) would be neat and useful for Bastion/Queen/etc

It's real. My lobbies are complete co-op, even when I play duos or trios in Stella. My friend and I were fighting a bombardier, some more guys showed up and just helped us kill it. Then they said
>You guys did most of the work, so go ahead and just leave us some stuff please
And it was good. And that's nuts because my friend always KOS but my kindness overpowered it

>>555804448
Imagine being so bad at PVP that you need to exploit the system to win, attacking friendly players like a nigger. Learn to slide and roll, don't use a controller. It's not hard

there are, its called ESP
it literally lists the players by their value and shows you where they are through walls
it's why people will get hunted down for finally bringing in their Renegade IV to hunt some arc, or if you have an inventory of expensive explosive nobody would normally know about
>>
>>555806164
this would explain how i got killed 30 seconds into a raid when i was carrying a hullcracker and an anvil...

yep, I am autistic and schizophrenic so I harass people to know why they killed me and the answers I've gotten are

Like this anon said >>555806468 once you are deep into friendly lobbies, you aren't running into cheaters
>>
>>555806601
unfortunate, because i'm not a fan of pve lobbies neither. i WANT to be worried about both arc and raiders alike, but the matchmaking doesn't allow it
>>
>>555806730
Yea its unfortunate
>they use cheats to kill people
>they are now put into more PvP lobbies and ruin the experience for everyone else

>>555806730
Yeah I prefer the middle ground too. Mostly friendly, but you still have to watch your back and think carefully. That's the most fun. Full coop is alright, but full pvp is gay. Somewhere in the middle is best

>>555806317

Just another reason to use stitcher 4. From that video I can see he only sees what weapon/utility they have in their hands and it's level. I don't see it showing what loot is in their inventory or what attachments they have. No one ever goes after me when I'm running around with a stitcher 4 even if it has the best attachments. Level 1 toro is also good since you just roll between every shot anyways.
