>What is Evolve (stage 2)?
Evolve uses an asymmetrical structure where five players, four playing as hunters and one as the monster, battle against each other in an industrialized alien planet called Shear.
Stage 2 is the transition to Free To Play + a lot of gameplay changes.

>What's new?
http://www.evolveupdates.com/stage2/

>I heard the game was dead?
It was (at least on PC). 100-200 players and little to no updates from the developers. If F2P can bring it back is unknown, but as of right now 18k people are playing it.

>Should I "get" it?
It's free. 18GB. Download and test it out.

>F2P Model?
Every week, four hunters (one of each class) and one monster will be in the free rotation. There are currently 24 Hunters and 7 Monsters in total, though some are variations of others. By playing the character tutorials, you unlock one hunter (Markov) and one monster (The Goliath) to keep forever.

Additional monsters, hunters, perks, and skins are unlocked by earning silver keys. Silver keys are earned by playing the game, leveling up, or getting login bonuses. Currently you can't actually buy silver keys, presumably so they can test the unlock rate, but that's coming later.

There is also a monthly login bonus punch card. You get one punch for each day you log in. Beyond silver keys, this can directly award new Hunters and Skins.

>What if I don't want to grind for characters and perks?
You can buy the game and it to gives your account full founder benefits, which gives you 30k keys and most characters.

>Microtransation?
None as of yet.

So I just hit 18, and I'm starting to see the hunters do better as a team. I am actually getting anxious whenever queuing up as a monster now, so I have to get better.

>>148784874
Specifics depend on the monster you play.
In general, be as much of a coward as you can be in stage 1, but take chances where they present themselves.
When you're stage 2 go to an advantageous location to be domed and try to get as many strikes as you can without loosing too much health.
Do not evolve to stage 3 unless the enemy team has at least 4 strikes in total or 1 member is gone with a long respawn timer, they'll camp the relay and you'll be fucked.

Honestly his strong point is reviving dead bodies, WITHOUT a strike. When you're a monster you don't see an icon anymore for those who died so its easy to lose track of them, and with invis you might never know a revive is going on in a spot. At least thats whats happened to me.

Unless in the battle you lose track where those bodies are. Has happened to me but I'm learning now.

Claw is fine but it suffers the same thing the other perks do. Theyre not feedingspeed/movespeed and theyre not cooldown.

If the game ever takes a turn towards more stealth gameplay you might not need the feeding speed perk and can afford the silver claws but nothings going to beat cooldown

You're clearly supposed to spend most of your time playing as the Hunters

Its where basically all of the effort from the developers goes

Which is odd because playing as a Monster is something you cant really do in any other game, so you'd think they'd give a shit

Planet scanner should stop working after initial contact with the monster. It's nearly impossible to retreat and get away otherwise. You can do it but it's really hard

Overall the game is a 6/10, has some cool ideas but the developers have a really clear bias and it's been there since it came out. Don't expect it to ever be fixed. They'll keep nerfing the monsters and buffing/adding more hunters.

So like the jetpack perk on hunters, what's one gold perk for all monsters that is worth maxing?

>>148789760
it's almost impossible to lose the hunters once they find you the first time. sure the monsters are quick but the maps are so fucking open and comparatively small that it's not really hard to chase it down. plus they seem to be ovals instead of circles or squares so you can just herd the fucker to one end and corner it.

it's so fucking stacked in the hunter's favor at any stage of the game it's insane. the monster has to take time to feed and evolve, but taking time is a hunter win condition. every monster save goliaths and behemoth cannot afford to get caught stage 1 so they need to sneak, but lmao planet scanner. and even when you're stage 3 and are supposed to be fucking godzilla incarnate, they just camp the shit out of the relay with hank and rval, and unless you got lucky strikes early you're fucked.

>>
is this game good?
it seems good
>>
>>148785283
That's because usually they play with a 4 man stack and already have some kind of teamplay / communication

OR their teammates are the ones finding the monster for them

Playing on a solo queue there is no reason to not play with your minimap open during the whole game, it's so much easier to see the "edges" of the map where you can trap the monster.
>>
>>148790975
It's good up until level 20 if you want to play monster, because they're only really viable against noobs

It's good if you like playing hunter
>>
>>148790975
wanna play monsters? yes? then _no

wanna play hunters? yes? then yes
>>
>>148790938
Thats how those abilities used to work but were changed

Wraith used to go invisible but people just went invisible in the dome and by the time you found her again she could just go invisible again

Gorgons mimic does still explode and deal damage to the hunters but if you dont manually detonate it before its destroyed then it wont do fuck all

Behemoths lava bomb being changed to the way it is was just to make it easier/more consistent i think

Even winning as monster isn't fun and playing monster is the only thing I find interesting

It was REALLY fun at first, but they keep fucking nerfing every monster
And hunters have so much god damn content and variety, while monsters have little and are predictable once you're past level 15, making it much harder to win because everyone knows the strategies to beat you

Meanwhile for monster players, you have to know how to counter like 15 different fucking characters

Daisy more or less just runs after the trails/the rest of the team. She's not very useful now since the game is less stealth oriented so it's really better to just find the monster yourself, she's handy as a distraction/helping people up that get downed but other than that doesn't have much use.

Yeah, she's pretty damn reliable, some argue she's useless but I think she's decent as long as 3 other people know to maneuver to cut off the monster instead of tag along with you and Daisy, it helps that she gives you a 15% move speed buff too when you're within 15m of her. I'm thinking of trying a Sanic Maggie perk build next time I'm on.

Trick question. Daisy is mostly useless except for sneaky revives. Reading the map and using the planet scanner is infinitely more useful than Daisy's tracking.

That's not a debatable topic anymore, Tell Tell games, Gone home and various other games are just VN's spliced with gameplay.

Can't argue against them being digital picture books though or the man children latch themselves onto them, but you could really say the same for most fiction.

Thank God. If they stick to nothing but hunt they'll kill the game before they get it balanced at this rate. This game has everything it needs to be a great game, all the devs need to do is get their shit together and actually be competent.

>>148797979
Cabbot has really cool dropship conversations
His rail gun is really fun to use, and pop monsters through walls.

His damage boost got nerfed and fucked a long while ago and now people think he's shit. which he probably is to be honest.
>>
>>148797979
he's a skill pick, you've gotta be able to rely on your ENTIRE team since he doesn't have any direct way to protect himself or others.other than the support class ability.

You haven't lived until you've seen a maxed stack lennox crushing the monster that has a damage amp on it.

Due to BS armor regen he can stop it.

There was a time when he was considered a second assault on the team
>>
>>148797979
Cabot is fairly weak. His railgun is alright for damage but you're a support. His damage amp is only ever useful when the monster's choosing to stay after a dome. His orbital ability is basically a long delay tracking dart, so essentially only good when your trapper is braindead. Hell, everything about cabot screams "My team fucking sucks so let me help them do their job a bit." He can easily help the trapper and assault get their shit together, but then you just have a team who essentially has a "good" trapper and assault, but no support.

His firebreath is like twice as long.
His leap smash is further

Rogue val or sunny

Exactly.
He's just here with his dirty shirt, his beard and his bro lazarus. He even talked maggie into strapping a flamethrower on daisy. Living the dream.
>>
>>148803147
Do hunters get special dialogue when lazarus rezes them? Does hyde get lines when lazarus gets him up?
>>
>>148802769
Blitz Markov, Sunny, Griffin, Val/Rogue Val is probably one of the better teams if not the best.

Lennox, Markov, Hank, Abe, Crow and Caira are all really good too.

>any hunter capable of carrying a subpar team with good play?
Well depends on how subpar they are and how bad the monster is, you can never solo the monster. Communication and teamwork is crucial for winning and this game's slowly breaking my social anxiety by forcing me to talk.

Bronze health regen is useful for when you've taken some damage but can't afford to use healing nades on yourself, but really it's a tossup between regen, jetpack dodge and movespeed. But Silver and Gold perks MUST be reload speed with Caira IMO.

There is a bug that carried over from alpha way back when the game wasn't released at the beginning of 2015.

There is basically a way you can see what the monster or hunters picked in the selection screen which allows you to counter-pick them. Not many people know about it because the game was almost dead anyway a few months after release.

Since f2p I've been refusing to pick against premades and saw a bunch of them leave in the last second. It's a good indicator that they were planning to counter-pick.

Right hands are not gonna make your tongue grab or fissure hit good hunters, especially when it's so bugged they can boost away mid-grab

He's a good pubstomper, but that doesnt go much further because his fuckhuge HP pool is useless against a competent team, they'll just take more time because they take no pressure

Caves are where he shines the most, but even there he's extremely predictable

Sounds like a bunch of retards to me. I specifically tell my team not to dome in or enter certain area, they curse and get mad that we're letting in "get away" or "channel armor" but when they listen it usually wins us the game in the long run because no one got a strike that wasn't fucking needed.

Doming in closed in spaces is basically that Watchmen scene where Rorschach goes to the prison cafeteria. Except you're the dumbass gangbanger and the monster's Rorschach.

if you are worried that someone might use it against you just pick your monster in the last 10 seconds. It takes too long to pick hunter and perks and accurately fit that to the monster pick if you do it shortly before the game starts.

Give them 10 seconds after they use it. it has a 5s duration of speedboost and 5s of wallhacks until it enters the cooldown phase where you can refresh it. If you refresh it while in use, they wont get anything back because the ability is still "in use" make reason you can't recharge your shield the moment after you use it, since the shield bar needs to deplete all the way before you can refill it.

Yeah, they're so trash man, you're the only good player bro.

You did nothing, every single time you did that you did nothing. You can't reset the Trapper scan until like 10-15 seconds after they use it, it fucking sucks but I think it's because the ability is still in effect or it's a bug.

Not him but hank's shield charger is a major gamechanger, it usually means the difference between a living medic who can keep everyone up or a medic who gets focused and killed in 15 seconds (aka not rogue val)

Also his orbital bombardment is decent area denial

If the monster's about to leap/whatever bomb that area. if they're on you bomb at your feet(double press the spacebar so you can get some vertical breathing room if he's interrupting), if he's on your medic bomb your medic, they'll thank you later.

Chokepoints are rare out in places where you can actually orbital(can't do it inside) but if you somehow find one bombs away m80.

I usually just use my buoys to heal from afar. But if my team keep running away from them like idiots at some point I jut drop a beacon. The issue is nobody knows he works and most people only fuck around with him. He is actually pretty decent if used right.

I'd just make it a temporary aoe that damages the monster inside it but heals hunters that go in it and the effect is even stronger on slim himself
>>
>>148797979
Easily my favorite support, but he's not amazing, okay not great. He really shines with Blitz Markov and a competent healer and I average 10k damage a game with his railgun, though not being able to effectively shield teammates is a bit of a bummer. I'd say if you're playing with low levels snag him cause he won't be much use high level and enjoy him, get Reload Speed and Capacity for his perks too.
>>
>>148828684
What is toxic about not being able to smell the hunters?
Or not seeing their health while they are in the cloud.
I mean they could make it do SOMETHING, ANYTHING?!

>>148828795
I tried it with quick switch and constantly keeping the monsters in the cloud I didn't notice it effect them.
Then I played the monster couple of times some slim used the spores on me and it literally did nothing, I could still see the fuckers and their health and so on. It literally does NOTHING.

As it stands right now, you should forget quick switch Slim and go for pure reload speed slim and spam the heal.

it'd show me coins if it were Kraken because I already own the Kraken

and it's not even default Kraken skin color, it's probably the frostbite skin since the blueish color pattern looks similar to the frostbite skin I have on goliath for example

Yeah the teleporter pads are shit and basically need you to hide them away in a corner. Oddly enough Kala works really well with Jackal. Had a game where I stripped Stage 2 Goliath, Goliath focused me, Jackal jumped down and blocked Goliath while Red Neck (forget his actual name) dropped his orbital drill and Blitz Markov hit it with tesla. Never seen a monster's health drop that fast.

Can anybody explain to me the timer mechanics in this game?
I don't mean the dome timer. I mean the game timer until the game is over and hunters win. At what point does the count down start, is there anything that pauses it, speeds it up and so on?
>>
>>148832241
nothing speeds it up
fights interrupt it
>>
>>148832284
>>148832241
What happens when the timer ends anyway? Is it a draw?
>>
>>148832308
hunters win.
So that's why I am asking, I am wondering about winning on time with hunters, or avoiding losing to that as a monster.
>>
>>148832395
Well that's silly. Why even send the hunters if the monster loses after being alone in the woods for five minutes?
>>
>>148831848
Even with perfect communication, lack of shielding and non-stationary healing isn't going anywhere. Those healing stations are anything but versatile.
>>
>>148832450
Because if hunters just wait, monster gets to level 3 for free?
>>
>>148832450
then it gets to stage 3 and destroys the relay
>>
Good lord please stop solo-doming, you're not getting anything other than a big black Wraith pounce out of it.

Should I just stop playing hunters until higher levels or something? Last game had the trapper going off on a fun solo adventure and gets murdered by a fucking plant because she's halfway across the map from the rest of the team.
>>
>>148832604
You have to remember anon that the same hunter that died to the plant probably just lost a game where nobody split up to cut off the monster. I'm sick of these groups where everyone just follows the trapper and never deviates from his path.
>>
>>148832604
Level 25, still see solo domes.


Hunters just braindead follow the trapper too. How they dont understand that the monster is going to doubleback is beyond me

This is why team call for a fight is goat, we talk about split up with strategies and agree on who domes etc.

Not that guy, but your examples and comparisons are pretty shitty.

Multiplayer competitive meta vs using walkthroughs for a single player game? They don't relate whatsoever.

You claim you can make logical decisions in 30-50 hours, but who says your logic is correct? By the sound of it, you're just assuming anything you think up is correct because you're the one who thought it up, so it can't be wrong.

I don't know anon.
Let me think. You know, it is really hard to so I really need to think. Because, you see, the difference between thesis and theory is that first is an educated guess that cannot be proven by experiment, and the second is the groundwork for the experiment. You come up with theory when you have necessary tools and conditions to test the outcome.

Geez, I wonder how can I test my theory I decayed in an interactive videogame?

Abe doesn't have anything bad or useless in his kit. His shotgun also does considerable damage. He can track, cc and damage. Trackers in T2 and below can't track worth shit beyond the planetary scanner.

Cabot is shit, but at the very least he doesn't have anything counter-productive to the current dome. Both Laz and Kala are in bottom tier, despite both having powerful gimmicks, are generally useless in the current state of the game.

Not even the guy you're arguing with, but you're comparing 'research' sample of 50 hours to sample size of 2000+ hours? And that's if you consider one of the 'pro' players. If you add them all up you'd get a number likely beyond 20000.

You're entitled to your own opinion, but if clinical research was conducted on 5 people, it's result is going to be disregarded in favor of sample size of 2000 people.

The thing with Goliath / Meteor Goliath is Rock throw is too predictable and easy to counter, it works against uncoordinated teams and is very situational, max leap, charge and fire breath are NEVER on cooldown at the same time, if you spam them, you always have one available, in the 43 games of MG I've played not once have I had a problem with bursting people cause I didnt have rock throw, plus it makes you immobile which leaves you open to Orbital Drill/Bombardment and any competent assault. Rock throws damaging but imo it's nto worth the points.

Was in a frustrating game earlier as goliath against lennox, sunny, Jack and Val. Every time I would almost kill Val or sunny they would jetpack over me towards jack and Jack would bring me to a complete stop with his cc gun.

A medic that doesn't heal beyond his 4 ability, and his revive glove ruins the dome timer? You don't want to go down EVER with the current dome.

There's supports that may compensate for his shortcomings, like Bucket and Sunny, but unless they make his glove give time back to the dome, he's never going to be as good as T1 medics.

Goliath? Youre supposed to take it like a good bitch. I feel like the devs design every hunter as "Okay, so how does THIS hunter do well against goliath?"

Gorgon and kraken not only dont give a shit about jack but are both excellent at destroying sunnys dome from range and in krakens case can avoid lennox hilariously easy. Gorgon can kind of do that but against teams with hank you really need to get dirty and go melee now and then

>Have you seen the reworked maps? They not only looked like shit but played like shit.
The way you put these 2 sentences implies the reworked maps are shit even thought I assume your original intent was the opposite.

Stupid grammar jokes aside, I think some of the new maps are utter shit and I really liked old ones. They had to streamline them and make lightweight for the retards with toasters to be able to play the game. I miss some old darkish maps. Also, these comparison shots on the update page are UTTER bull, old maps was NOWHERE as bad, they cherrypicked some scenes for dramatic effect fuck these cunts. The weather control was great before and nowhere as bad as in their comparison shot. How about you actually go play them instead of judging by bullshot?

Oh right. You can't. But I did before.

>You fags complain about the game being unbalanced but when they pull stuff from the game to balance you also complain, pathetic

But the game is STILL unbalanced piece if shit and map changes did not, well, change it in slightest.

Nothing do do after ahwile, at least as far as progression goes. Just leveling monsters and characters isn't really that satisfying. Plus lack of maps gets stale and there could be more monsters too. Like 3 more and I'd be fine for a good amount of time. I don't think we need a single fucking additional hunter. Oh and skins that are actually worthwhile would be nice too. Most of the skins blow and are pointless to buy them. Weapon skins are pretty shitty too, only the bright ones light phoenix or monarch are even noticeable.

It isn't just that there's nothing to do.

The balance is bad and getting worse because the game is clearly geared towards groups of Hunters when it should be about a group of Hunters working to defeat a single overpowered enemy. Victory should be hard fought as a Hunter, and TRS thinks things ought to be the opposite.

Right now, it's going like this:

Casual player jumps in, enjoys the casualized Evolve which is only good for 15 to 20 levels (easily doable in a day or two of engaged play) and quits from one or more of of the following:

1) Lack of maps. Lack of variety in maps - TRS removed many elements and maps altogether.

2) Lack of difference in game flow and style which before you at least had some level of control over.

3) Nobody wants to play the obviously underpowered Monster once they've gotten even half decent.

A lot of problems were caused by TRS listening too much to their hugbox of a fanbase. There is a literal defense force just swarming around in their official forums that will defend every decision made for Stage 2, no matter how shitty it actually is.

If you are good at Wraith the skill of team does not matter.

can healer heal himself if he's being focused?

>>148844741
Healer is the hardest role actually and most blamed.

In 90% of cases monster goes for healer so you need to be good at evade
At the same time you need to constantly keep track on team health and keep it up
And in the end of a day if you lose the rest will say "healer was shit" with same 90% of probability

Make sure you want this
>>
>>148845236
Depends, all healers have the 4 ability that heals a bit of health to everyone including himself, but Val for example, that's the only way to heal herself

Rogue Val however can heal 80% of her health, Caira can throw grenades at herself

Well, monsters got nerfed because TRS fixed everything that was wrong with monsters :

- Sneaking players/Evading in dome all game
- Sneak pounce spam was absolutely broken
- They needed to give everyone the dome, or every player would've quit the game again since trappers don't know how to cut the monster.

Overall all they did was make monsters fight more, which is what most monsters never learned to do in the original game, so now most old monster players are complaining that they can't faceroll as hard as before.

They will buff monsters eventually give it time. Balancing a game like this is very hard for high level play, especially if you factor low level play too.

Crow is better at finding the monster. Abe is better at following it, also I think the armor piercing is super useful if you're tracking a monster that likes to run a lot.
>>
>>148846003
>The bird seems way less reliable than abe's darts.
Because you don't use bird to actually TRACK monster you use him to spot him when it is nearby or hiding or to pin-point location in dome for others. You are using Gobi wrong.

>The slow is fine but i can't deal damage with it and assaults all seem to have lost their m1 button.
You don't.
You juggle between Stasis Gun and Kinetic Rifle. Chargeshot stasis to make it last long enough for you to land full clip from rifle or -3 charged shots then swicth back and repeat. Proper weapon management is crucial for both, Abe and Crow and that's why I love them

>And what's the point of piercing armor when you're the only one that can do it? It's only useful if you're at the end and the monster has 1 bar of hp and a bunch of armor.
No, it is not.
Sure, this is one of the cases where it is useful. I often singlehandedly save the team with that but you think too much like a pubber, you want immediate results now.

Think strategically.

When you first time encounter monster early in stage 1 in dome don't bother to use normal shots because support and assault will reduce his armor on themselves just fine, focus on delivering direct damage to his health while slowing him down. This will give advantage in future because his HP does not regenerate and increases by percentage. The lower the better from start.

Next time you can use normal shot to help team to damage him quickly.

And in the last encounter what I mentioned before - you can kill him often by yourself.

Also, Crow is FUCKING COOL as fuck besides all these awesome advantages asa hunter.

That's seems completely wrong though. Unless armor and hp take different amounts of damage from different sources it doesn't matter if i do damage directly to hp or help bring the armor down faster.
The only cases is which there is a difference is if
-i manage to kill the monster before armor is depleted;
-we don't get the armor down before it escapes and out of all the team's damage mine at least went into its hp.

What's the best kill order as a monster? Medic seems to be the logical choice but assaults end up doing shit tons of damage to me.
>>
>>148852398
Medic > Support > Trapper > Assault

This will change a lot depending on comp and the situation though. If it's Sunny and Rogue Val, prioritize the former first. If you catch the Assault alone and isolated then you should focus him down to death.
>>
>>148852398
It depends on the hunter comp and which monster you are really. I guess one thing that seems to be consistent is that if the team has Rogue Val you can kill the support first, and if the team has normal Val you kill her first
>>
>>148852398
You waste more time, armour and health going after an assault with a competent medic and support on the hunter team backing him up. Their they'll constantly be healed, shielded and have their own personal shield to boot.

Target either the support or medic, since they're the only team members who keep the others alive. Any other target order should be purely opportunistic, like a retard doming you before the rest of his team catch up or jumping/mauling someone around a corner or in a cave when his team don't have line of sight to support him.

>>
>>148852796
Catch it in a cave
>>
>>148852398

It depends on hunter composition and if the hunters are actually good.

If it's a terrible pub going for the medic first then support is going to work 99% of the time because trappers don't CC and assaults don't tank abilties.

If they're actually good even going for the assault or trapper first to get some strikes and be able to downright kill them on late domes sometimes is the correct decision as you can burst them down through their medic heals and support shields if you play your cards right.

You have to think about every character and which ones make your life hardest, take into consideration their defense and how to work to break it.

you don't use dashes as a medic unless you're dodging a rock. flying straight up and/or floating is far more effective.

Honestly, the actual real problem with evolve is that people just don't want too play the concept at all


As a monster player, i have two options: pick goliath or pick a monster that isn't trash. If i choose thr latter, because i want to have fun, most of the players just disconnect. People just want to have a sandbag to beat, not to have sn actual competition and thats why evolve will fail
>>
So why do people even play hunters if monster is so much fucking better? Literally pick wraith and you win, I'm not sure I get it.

Other way around, if the enemy hunter know what they're doing Wraith is a terrible pick
>>
>>148855298

Until there is a real matchmaking system (ranked doesn't even count, that's busted too), yeah, an average monster is almost always going to beat average hunters and getting gud at monster alone is way easier than getting a team of good hunters.

When both sides are actually good monsters get rekt most of the time though (not only my experience, it has been seen in tournaments and devs have confirmed it happens in high ratings).

Did you just read what I wrote? It's not only personal experience but there is hard evidence confirmed by the devs that monsters, all of them, are weak in high level play.

One of the best Krakens (Source_TV) even got to pick him in the last tournament and he still got fucking bodied.

Because they got stomped by it a few times when they were new to the game and instead of trying to learn how to deal with it they just handle the situation like a bitch.

>There's a reason most hunters leave upon seeing a wraith
Because they're trashcans
Wraith is worthless at high level and the last time I lost to one it was because our trapper had a retard overdose and went alone in the wood to pistol a wraith lvl3

>>148856527
This was before the game was changed, now it's more combat focused so it's in the monsters favor. All you do is fight the hunters and wreck shop, it's not hard to focus on one player and then the rest.

shitters think emet is bad because they are terrible at the game and dont know the range of monster abilities and melee attacks, and are too stupid to throw the bouys near hunters but out of the range of the monsters attacks.

emet is only bad versus kraken because he can sit up in the air and snipe your bouys and teammates with his ranged attack, but everyone is bad versus kraken because its fucking kraken so piss off

emet best medic

Are you aware that "professional" Evolve players are just shitters who played a dead game because it's the only way they can be considered "professional"?
In any other game that actually has a big competetive scene they are not even performing average.

how do I git gud with the Wraith? I have no issues evolving and escaping the niggers but even when I'm stage 3 with almost full hp I still somehow lose

Elden Kraken is better.

Goliath is fine as well, Meteor goliath may be a tad bit better though since the DoT. But Goliath is more bursty.

NEW THREAD WHEN
>>
>>148857996
it all comes down to you not missing your skills. Tunnel vision the right character and then snowball them. Hopefully you had a few strikes on them before relay fight.

Against a laz comp, focus laz, against other comps, always go for support first, except if it's cabot.
Also consider running Damage Reduction as your gold perk it will be your best ally as a monster player.
>>
>>148858275
Aah, I get it. It helps them to dodge more often, right?

I also get to play Maggie the trapper. I liked this one a lot. However the monster kept destroying my traps before getting trapped. I think Elder Kraken. Do you also place traps on high ground?
>>
NEW THREAD
>>148859598
>>
>>148859386
Elder Kraken just counter deployable characters very hard, his aftershock (aoe red bubble around him) makes lightning bounce off everyone if someone got hit, so it will also destroy your traps.

just always place your traps behind the monster in order to save the target he's focusing, they're especially great at the edge of cliffs against goliath, as you can cancel his climb, leapsmash, and jump with them.
