Dude it goes to show just how little skill and precision it takes to play him, doing 200-300 damage with shots THAT bad when most other champions have to be really precise to do damage is just pathetic.

And landing shots like that as a 2500 hp character who has self recovery and decent movement option can certainly win you a lot of undeserving fights against weakened opponents.

>>168917894
>win you a lot of undeserving fights against weakened opponents.
It's totally not like in a game like this where players regenerate health outside of combat, it would make sense for certain characters to be able to chase down fleeing enemies and finish them off.

It's not like we even have an entire class specifically for champions whose main purpose is doing just that.

Will Skye ever be fixed?
Considering that If she gets buffed, low level players and shitters would start crying for nerfs because they barely move.
Skye is the worst flank, because she has no actual escape, her smoke screen can barely be considered one, because anybody will start shooting at it, and taking her bonus damage from poison bolts will destroy her.

She is doomed to be useless forever.
She is worse than Loki now.

>>168918530
>thinks that i mean that you only need to land 200 damage shots

ITs the fact that with most champions you can land 2/3 very hard hits and landing the last hit is usually hard because the opponent adjusts and starts to dodge, it also has a psychological factor where its harder to land the last shot, but with a character like pip you can just do 200-300 damage shots in between your directs and that racks up the damage and kills very quick, also charges up his ult quite a bit which is something else you are choosing to ignore.

that's why any card loadouts that focus on his heals are worthless.

nobody believes me right now that grohk is broken, people believe him to be the worst in the game vs competent players.

best builds to make him work vs competent players are:

>Gale IV + Haunting IV + Phantom II + Astral Traveler I + Totemic Rescue I.

this build allows you to have incredibly low cooldowns on Totem and Ghost Walk w/ increased duration and speed on ghost walk. grohk is sustained, consistent dps on enemy players with cauterize or wrecker if you can aim well, and Gale IV and Haunting IV allow you to just run away, get behind cover, heal up, and rinse and repeat.

>Shamanic Might IV + Gale III + Haunting III + Astral Traveler I + Totemic Rescue I.

same thing as the build before, but 1 second of totem cooldown and 1 second of ghost walk cooldown, and 1 sec of ghostwalk duration are sacrificed for 400hp that could mean the difference between life and death.

Maelstrom might make Shock Pulse builds viable, too. Something like Lightning Rod 4, Arc Lightning 3, Thunderstruck 3.
Provided there's at least 2 enemies for it to bounce between, that's 1125 damage and 720 self healing per Shock Pulse hit that you can endlessly spam. And if you're not confident in hitting moving enemies, it can bounce off deployables, too.

He does. His favorite champs are Skye and Kinessa, coincidentally two of the weakest champs (well maybe not kinessa but you need to be really good and have a good supporting team to be useful)

>>168918785
If someone is damaged enough that a 200 shot will finish them, chances are they're dead regardless of what champion you're playing. I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at here. Are you trying to say Pip is OP? Or are you mad that he doesn't require as much effort as certain other champions?

>also charges up his ult quite a bit which is something else you are choosing to ignore.

I'm not ignoring anything. That part of his kit simply wasn't brought up. I think everyone can agree his ULT charge could be toned down.

>>168919204
I like it

>>168919942
honestly one of the legendaries of kinessa which are the mines are going to be her best friend against any one including the dreaded maeve, and considering i run a mine loadout its one of the best things shes going to have, skye is nerfed slightly by making her bonus damages from poison bolts a legendary but the one that resets all cooldowns is pretty cool

>>168920131

OK anon. Settle down.

>>168920045
Its the champion as a whole that really annoys me, he takes 0 effort and skill to be played at a very very decent level.

He also attracts some of the most insufferable faggots you'll ever meet in any videogame (furries)

He's too easy to do well with, his disgusting AOE can also fill up his disgusting ult too quick also, because he can just spam point and it will hit EVERYONE sitting there for decent damage.

characters that only require you to aim in the general direction as your opponent are very annoying on any game, i mean i was a very good tf2 soldier and his AOE was considered cancer tier by a lot of the community, pips AOE is easily double than the tf2 soldier.

>>168919942
He is a Kinessa main, He doesn't play Skye from what I remember.
He plays Androxus and Cassie, but mainly Kinessa.

>>168920646
I can but i choose not to play female characters because i don't enjoy playing them, why would i force myself to play as characters i don't like, i can never immerse myself into an universe where women can actually hang with men in combat because women are just too weak mentally and physically.

I main characters based on looks and general attitude, the mechanics can be learned with practice, playing as a female character is empty for me.

I can assure you that this is much more common than masturbating to your favorite female character daily and making up stories on your mind about how she's yours and yours only.

I HATE FLANKING AND BURST META.

So you are basically tipping your fedora first, saying women can't hold their own in any form of combat.

And then you admit to choosing male characters based on their looks and attitude, not their moveset and role in game.

Then you assume everyone that doesn't suffer from repressed homosexuality as much as you are faps to vidya women. And makes up stories to enhance said fappage.

Anon, I...

>>168922581
You think i need to assume anything when talking about the game gets a bunch of waifu posters telling you to go post about it on reddit so they can keep waifuposting in peace?

>>168922175
this has to be bait... high sens is a crutch. if you have plenty of desk space, there is literally no reason NOT to use low sens..

I use 800dpi 3 ingame sens w/ a steelseries qck (12.6 inches), and I get around 300 degrees in game from a left-to-right motion.

it is perfect for tracking targets like maeve. if you use shit too fast, it's impossible to lock onto her tiny ass hitbox at the speed that she moves, if you use shit slower then you can't move your arm fast enough to keep up.

>>168920698
>he takes 0 effort and skill to be played at a very very decent level.

You're being dramatic. He still requires some degree of thought because of positioning (being in a spot where you can harass the enemy while still healing allies) & ensuring the enemy is close enough to the center of your AoE for the full damage.

>(furries)

That's only a percentage of the fanbase for the character. The important distinction here is that the fanbase & character are two separate things.

Sounds to me like you just personally don't like the character on a subjective level, so it feels like I'm wasting my time trying to explain his mechanics to you.

>>168922868
low sens is legit a crutch on fast paced shooters, sure it might let you get decent aim against baddies but once you start going against better players their pace is gonna be just too much for you because they really turn it up m8, handling high sens requires more skill so its harder but makes you better at this kind of shooters than low sens because it lets you do more things faster this isn't counter strike where you only need to sit still aiming at head level.

16 inches /360 which is what you're using right now isn't that slow but you really want to turn it down to at least 8-9 inches/360 or you will have problems playing against great players.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gPGD1HfOb4

If you tried playing at this pace with your sens you'd have a very hard time, for example.

>>168923698
Top tier if you can aim

>>168923572

Oh shit I just realized engie Barik is a Steam gift skin. Can I install the game twice or do I have to uninstall the stand alone version?

>>168937934
I think you actually have to uninstall the stand alone, at least that's what I remember about smite

>>168937934
neither, it will do a quick download (like 10sec) and will be in steam.

>>168938062
>>168938047

Thanks. Any other free skin? I already got the youtube mount and the twitch mirror.

Remember that Cauterize shutting down Maeve is a meme.
Nine Lives, aside from healing, also removes any CC from Maeve upon use, including Cauterize.

real talk though
is the game going to survive the inevitable shitstorm when OB44 comes in
even if they do fix it like a week after the patch drops i feel like it will lose alot of both already established and new players who don't like the essence/legendary system and the ones who don't feel like grinding 50k~ gold just to buy the one legendary they want

>>168948107
i feel like the longer this game stays a thing the more ridiculous its hitboxes are gonna seem

>>168948107
I think a lot of idiots will be silenced thanks to the event, mastery chest, and free essence from the tutorial. After the event ends and people are done burning through their free stuff then the shitstorm will come and if hirez doesn't have a fix at that point then it'll be game over.

I've read here that opening 30 chests gets you like 8k or less essence which is nothing, considering legendaries might cost 10k or more.

How is this not some sort of copyright infringement.

>>168923734

>>168963126
Do you not understand copyright? "Guy with a hook", "guy with a shield", and "edgelord with gun" are not copyrightable.

People will find a way.

>>168963126
because paladins was in-dev and in closed alpha for a long time before OW was even announced.

sorry for posting /r/eddit but you need to be redpilled, blizzard literally saw early footage of paladins somehow and just took the assets from their dead titan mmo and made it into a class FPS and released a closed beta within a year.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Paladins/comments/53qusf/a_brief_history_of_paladins_as_response_to/

in the post, Hi-Rez explains how many champion concepts existed in Global Agenda and the 2012 in-dev version of Paladins, long before blizzard ripped them off. proof is in the pudding.

>copyright infringement

Blizzard basically ripped off Hi-Rez's hero/champion "concepts" first, and as >>168963691 stated, you can't really rip them off in the first place because they aren't copy-writable. Because Hi-Rez knew this, they just ripped off Overwatch heroes with a twist (Androxus is basically Genji McReaper, for some of the champions that you stated Blizzard isn't straight retarded because they're a business first, and they know not to get in a retarded legal battle that would most likely end up with them losing it because Hi-Rez has proof of indev dating all the way back to 2012, as detailed in the Reddit post.

They wouldn't have bothered to speak out if they were in the wrong. Ball is in Blizzard's court and they're choosing not to engage because they know they will lose.

>>168923572
>Press Q to win
>Only one fun character
>Maps worse than Frozen Guard
>So fucking slow

>>168963742
I hope not. If those become copyrightable, gaming will die.

>>168965010
Blatant ripoffs have been around for decades. I mean way, way worse than this Overwatch/Paladins stuff. It would take a level of Jewishness never seen before by man to start copyrighting character concepts.

>>168964867
I put over 400 hours into Overwatch. And while it was fun, I'm already enjoying my time much more in Paladins.

Might also because I've not noticed a huge amount of hackers here.

>>168965198
It's literally not possible to do it without ruining everything. Long-established companies would reveal that they did something similar 40 years ago and you need to pay them a few million now. Those would also mean gameplay is copyrightable. Hope you like Nintendo suing everyone who has jumping in a game.

Sometimes I feel pips ult is a little too situationally strong. Especially against any of the tanks.

>>168965371
The major issue with OW (around 100 hrs logged here, never play anymore and got my 6 gaymen friends who bought OW playing Paladins now) is that

>the TTK for ultimate skills is too fucking high/easy-to-use comparatively to everything else.

Because of this, OW is perpetually stuck in a meta where the only offense heroes that have good leftclick TTK capability (i.e. S76, McCree, Tracer, Widowmaker) are the best heroes in the game because they are the only ones who can deal half-decent damage outside of their ults.

In Paladins, there are very few ultimate skills with stupid good TTK (and the ones that do have huge drawback). The majority of stupid good TTK is on left clicks and skill combos, rather than ultimates, which forces players to engage fights with an emphasis on using their ultimate to give their team the upper hand rather than just use it to get "lol free kills".

>>168966686
Well, shields don't stop it anymore, so that's probably why.
Well, that and the fact it makes it so you only have to hack through 1500 HP instead of 4000~6000.

>>168966495
the only time I've personally ran into cheaters was when I was in the shitter tier, probably a couple games after I exited bot games when I hit profile level 5.

we still rolled them which was hillarious, I was on Grohk and I just left my healing totem behind walls for allies while I ghostwalked towards him to mess up his aimbot.

since then, I've had some situations where I wanted to think that people were aimbotting, but I'm at the ELO+ (measurement that paladins.guru uses) in casual now (bouncing around 2,500 to 2,750) where players have legitimately good aim apart from the retards who just pick Torvald every game and let their team carry them to victory because they're trash at playing real champs.

Really makes you think.

She's pretty good. Especially if you stay close to a frontliner and/or healer. Tyra can kill Maeve fairly fast in the open due to Hunter's Mark. In the worst case you'll seriously wound her and scare her away. That said, if Maeve gets the jump on you, you are still fucked.

Maeve's a pretty loud character though, so if you pay attention you can hear her coming.

Tonight I've learned I'm way better at Payload.

Question about the new essence system, can we purchase new cards with gold or will they be essence-only? I saw the math thread and it seems the conversion rates are about 1:8 so thinking if I should blow them all now.

I played a couple games after the insistence of a few friends. This just seems like a less polished version of Overwatch with bad maps. Am I wrong?

>>168971712
>less polished
You mean more fun? then yes.

>>168971843
How so? The only thing that seems different is Paladins seems slightly less focused on Ultimates

>>168969079
I think it's okay to be shit as long as you're not stubborn or stupid.

>>168971925
It's like Ultimates not being an I WIN button is a revolutionary concept.

>>168971712
>>168971925
It is less polished for sure but the game play is miles ahead. There are no boring pure support heroes because all the heroes also do real damage. Item system makes sure tanking, healing or cc isn't too powerful and adds depth to the game. Loadout system allows you to adjust the heroes to your taste. Overwatch is simple and boring as shit compared to this.

Time to kill is higher which means aggressive gameplay is encouraged. It's not like Overwatch where if you step outside of your Reinhardt shield, you will immediately die.

>Overwatch with bad maps
>when Overwatch maps are filled with chokepoints

Please tell me that Bulldozer is bugged or something, causing it to do boosted damage to everything. Had so many matches now where people, full fucking teams of people, go rank 3 bulldozer asap vs heroes with no deployables, there must be something up with this nonsense

FUCK YOU HI-REZ HOW MANY WINS WILL YOU KEK ME FOR MATCHS IN BAD STATE?

>>168971712
I think it's the little things. In Paladins you have slightly smaller maps, add the horses and the slightly faster movement and you have a game where the action is faster and more focused on the objectives.

Then you have that each hero has 3 habilities + 1 ult making it easier to learn how to play each one in literally a couple of minutes.

And then you have the card system that helps to add more variety to the gameplay. And the talents system too.

And the game modes are objectively better too.

PS: whoa, this text is good. Someone could make some improvements and simply post in the OP so nobody will need to ask anymore.

>tfw only have 30k gold to spend

Don't see a point in buying all the cards. I already went through all the heroes except ying, fuck that whore and bought all epics and all the good rare ones. Rest of my gold is going to be spent on chests to hopefully get a lot of essence for legendaries.

>>168988061
Cause you are going to rather get the essence than getting a shitty card

>>168988061
if you have all the cards you'll only get essence, legendaries or cosmetics from the chests

>>168988505
Even so I don't think it's worth it for the shittiest tier cards. Keep in mind currently cards cost 1200 and after patch you can grab a chest for 3000. You get fuck all essence for the shit cards. Could be worth it to buy all blues

>>168918243
wow you must have some strong gay hidden in you, was like that before too now I suck dick for 3,50

>>168988914
each champion has 8 green, 5 blue and 3 purple
essence costs aren't changing

>3*22*5000 is 330k essence
>330k+137.5k+88k is 555.5k
(none of these account for already unlocked cards)

you get 36k essence retroactively for tutorial and 72k for founders pack, 1/5th the total sum.

Though you also get retroactive champion rank chests (up to 110 free radiant chests), so skipping the greens wouldn't be the worst thing ever.

>>168982725
Ive been playing more recently, all the tryhards are gone, now theres actual fun to be had

>>168989397
Oh no yeah no, just suggesting at least getting the purples at the very least.

Radiant chests are gonna be 2500 gold by the way, and from 22nd to 26th it's x2 reward event with 25% off booster costs.

>>168989479
Oh yeah everyone should buy all the purples for sure. Just don't see a point spending gold on shit cards.

play mge mod on tf2 as scout/soldier and raise your sensitivity, your slow cs sens is dogshit on arena shooters.

>>168993582
Yes.

>>168994253
Wait till tomorrow, see if any skin interests you. Save gold for the new card sistem.

>>168994253

Use gold to buy the cards that will be epic (purple) in season 1, the blue (rare) ones too if you make it. The link was posted in this thread.

Really depends on which hero you bought, how much you like them and what role you prefer. If there are a few hero you like enough to "main" you should get the good cards for them and maybe epics as show here>>168989883

Otherwise it might not hurt to buy one or two more heroes that look fun to you and get some cards for each of the heroes you own to get decent enough decks. Right now it feels like it's better to spend money on cards before the patch it. Keep your crystals and don't waste it on cards/heroes though.

>still can't have more than five custom loadouts

Why

Why does Sha Lin look retarded?

>>168994807
>>168994696
>>168994795

So i should buy cards now that will be expensive tomorrow?
For what do i save crystals if not for cards or heroes? For boxes?

>>168995187
they realized that if they couldn't make a man prettier than Fernando so they had to fudge his face at the last second

>>168995246
Boxes and crystal exclusive skins. I'm grabbing a booster when the patch hits I ahve a bunch of radiant chests saved up

>>168995246
Save the money, spend it in chests tomorrow. Every duplicate will give you the new currency to spend in the legendaries, if you don't care about this, use in cards or skins that can be bought with gold. The cristals you spend in skins, not champs.

>>168995187
To mirror how retarded his kit is

>tfw 28 (twenty eight) gold leftover from buying purple cards
>couldn't even get them all

At least those I left out were for shitters like Kinessa and Tyra, or others I'm not really interested in playing anytime soon like Maeve because she's a fuckin bitch. Probably won't get enough gold to buy them before the patch. Oh well.

OC champion idea, feel free to steal:

Support champion based around summons/minions in an way that can work with a fast paced shooter, the actual aesthethics don't matter that much could be high tech constructs or magical creatures.


Each skill button can summon a minion with different abilities, a minion follows you character trying to maintain its current position relative to your character, at your side, front or rear, minions can take damage and be killed which trigger a few seconds CD until you can summon another one.


-Left click summons an offensive minion, it shoots a projectile at the point you are aiming currently when you press left click while its summoned.

-Right click summons a defensive minion, it holds a shield to block damage, it's smaller than Fernando's but big enough to cover a character, I had this image in my head of an small flying Imp struggling to hold a huge shield.

-Q summons a healer minion, it drops a magical potion/orb that heals in area similar to Pip, but short ranged and with lower CD.

-F is the replacement skill, press F plus a direction and you will move a few meters in that direction while your minion takes your place, this is not only a form of escape but also lets you reposition a minion for example to put it in front of someone to block damage.

-The ultimate could be a powerful offensive minion or maybe summoning all minions together for a limited period of time.

sad that there is only one day left to play this game. It was a fun time.

>>169004149
What's the thing you're the most worried about? For me it's the essence income and the price of legendaries.

>>169004603
the rng of the chests and getting cards you need. I just started playing again recently, had my account since closed and don't have a load of cards. So it's going to take me forever to get essence.

I was really enjoying the game but if there is going to be some huge grind just to unlock important aspects of your characters in a competitive shooter then im out.

>>169005093

*beta. I played for a few hours and stopped.

should i feel bad for not wanting to play as women?

not everyone enjoys pretending they are a loli

>>169006298
It's not about pretending to be a loli, it's about pretending to be an assault rifle and a molotov.

>>169006298
No, but by the same token you can't really shame people for wanting to be the little girl.

>>169006298
You should introspect for having some sort of mental block regarding playing certain characters based on gender.

It seems like the kind of problem that causes PeTA go apeshit over fiction.

>>169006437
first of all tyra is crap if i wanted to play COD i would play COD.

the only reason that i started playing this game was because of grover, a big tree who throws axes, heals and is Spiderman.

>>169006464
i can when those are trying to shame me for my tastes which are objectively much more normal than wanting to be a loli/having sexual desires for lolis

>>169006298
i dont think about vaginas when i play video games
i think about fragging idiots with my ice staff and healing allies with illusions
you are the one who has a female complex here

>>169006795
Anon, it's 4chan. Just call them a fag and go about your day.

>>169006795
Tyra was just an example.

>>169006298
Enjoy limited options and bad performance against some champions.

Look at how Victor went from underperforming to stupidly OP in a single patch. Thats just 1 character too.

>>169006519
look i can play them a game or two but ill never main a female, i just cant.

>>169006858
>evie/ying main

Kek, sorry even if both of those were male id still not like them.

same as kinessa and skye (hate sniper and spy from tf2 despite being very good at bothl

>>169007003
i can play most male champions on this game effectively, except for ping king

>>169007107
stolzey is just a good player, sha lin and cassie were dominating damage and its good that they buff the others
