They lost a LOT of goodwill by pushing things as far as they did so far. None of these changes make the game itself more appealing than the original TSW. So far, they just make Legends less crappy than they pushed at the start.

They're going to have to do a lot more than this if they want their Steam reviews to be anything above "Mixed." I'm not even sure it's going to be that high, to be totally honest.

Also, this >>181257994

Funcom ruined their own game because they couldn't manage their own finances for the past half-decade. Don't put that on us. That's all Funcom's fault.

what do you think is going to happen if Funcom goes under?

If things really are as bad as the rumours say, then they're probably going to get bought up by a bunch of shitty predators like GamersFirst and their games reduced to an utter husk, just like Fallen Earth and APB.

Dark days are coming. That's why I'm looking into other options. I might even give Wildstar or Neocron a shot out of morbid curiosity.

>>181261427
ESO is fun just avoid the general guild, its bretty shit

Isn't GamersFirst going under too they had a contract to save themselves from going under on APB under the terms that they release on both consoles and PS4 didn't like their shit so they cant update their games and its

The game feels piss easy now. Is it my nostalgia blinding me or did they just make everything super weak?

>>181261427
Wildstar is the best free to play model out there right now.

Wildstar is the best MMO

Problem is nobody realizes it :(

This game died way faster than I thought it would.
I really did try to enjoy it, but I just got bored doing the same missions over again with very little gameplay change. Maybe it would have been better if they updated the graphics to the current year.

>>181257994
>Those people in the comments saying they'd rather grind AEGIS and Scenarios
It ain't that bad just because le puppet man says so

>>181269106
You don't need a reviewer to point out the flaws. There's been an overwhelming outcry over all the inherant problems of the "new" secret world.

It has not been a good launch and Funcom is struggling as a company.

>>181269106

The guy runs a relatively obscure Youtube channel and just happened to make a video that nails how the vast majority of the community already felt. It's not a coincidence that packs on people on other sites are talking about how "right" this guy is. It's not because every point he makes is correct or noteworthy. It's because he captures the general level of disgust that most of us are feeling right now, even after the last stream.

>>181263697
Wildstar does a lot of things really well. I don't know if it's the best MMO, though. Primal matrix is shit and the game never stopped being buggy. That said, it's the best combat I've seen in an MMO basically ever, at least in terms of functionality.

>Innsmouth
>most feared track and field team in the states.
Oh god, that has to be because they teach the kids to run away from anything that looks dangerous.

>>181271114
Those Track 'n Field zombies also really love to run into you while you're questing.

On unrelated note, the music sound quality on Radio Free Gaia seems to be shit, is this dependant on DJ or what the joke here is?

Even with the new changes that funcom has presented the core mechanics are still the same.

You did them for black bullion and currency mostly, and later daily challenges.

Now you do them for RNG bags and dailies that you need to do because it's the only source of MoF.

You can get get mof from selling stuff in the AH but you can only sell 10 items per day and the economy as time goes on is going to get really unstable.

The new combat is starting to frustrate me. General chat keeps circlejerking over it but I don't see how it's any different to the old reticle combat. Instead of spamming builders now I'm just spamming consumers, while some stupid gauges flash on the screen.

Now I kinda remember why I hated Egypt. It introduces alot of annoying enemy types and alot of annoying abilities.

>>181276854
you should get more fun gauges

Does the story get better? I'm only at Kingsmouth and I am already bored due to the grind.

>>181283716
er....

has anyone min/maxed which is the best secondary weapon? with such limited amount of slots and mechanics being annoying, there has to be one that functions better with minimal bar investment and able to ignore the gimmick as much as possible.

I use pistol as my primary, and just filled out top active skill tree. Should I learn the other 2 trees next or should I focus on my secondary weapon now?

Did this game always have so many faggot characters or was I just not paying attention?

From what I heard, yes. Only palyed the story mode dungeons with groups of 3 so far, but in everything up to Darkness War so far you'd have to be pretty stupid to die, so I assume an overleveled solo player wouldn't have too much trouble either.

I did it solo, on 14 level with green 1 pip weapons. Takes time, but bosses do laughable damage. Unless you are dumb enough, to stand in the electrified water, or let Ur Daug stun you more than once during one blue phase, you should do it without any casualities.

This hive won't survive the night. Again.

Picked Gunslinger because of the outfit.

I hate pistols, but the shotgun seems like a pretty good secondary. What's a good primary weapon to go along with it?
I was thinking Elemental, is that a viable combo?

>>181334846
Just take shotgun as primary and elemental as secondary. Elemental has a chain ability as basic.

>>181331613
I didn't know you could do this. Now I have all the shit I had unlocked in the original. Thank you, silly account forgetting anon.

>>181334846

so, i went through this same thing. pistol is good, but the skills annoy me, you have to channel unload/all-in, and sometimes it desyncs/lags and you can move whilst channeling, and you are never sure if it really came out. the same goes for timing unload/all-in at the end of a chamber timer, did i hit it at .1s or did i miss it? in server lag, who knows?

so i switched shotgun to primary and pistol for secondary. shotgun is really good, its slightly limited as part of the kit is meant for a tanking build, but you can take the top row and its just a simple, effective DPS. also this way i had it so i could use Unload to, unload pistol energy, whilst browsing which shells i want to reload. however the problems of being rooted whilst channeling still stands.

i looked to Ele because it has simple nukes like mjolnir, but more importantly i took the crystallized frost talent. it synergies well with shotgun's cleave, to be able to root packs so they cant melee you, and then go to work with shotgun blasts.

i think the pairing is a little funky really though. this build works well just because the skills are really good at baseline level. theres not much synergy in passives etc.

apart from the the big boss ~24% shotgun heal cooldown its a bit glass cannon (might even want the talent that removes anima shells for max DPS). luckily nothing you will fight will live long enough to shatter you.

>>181337034
I've been running shotgun primary + at first pistols and then assault rifle as secondary, I only got 1 skill from my 2ndary on my skillbar for whenever I run out of energy though. I really love CQC and Kneecapper with their respective passives, I always open up combat by knocking down enemies and then firing a salvo into them.

>>181337034
>theres not much synergy in passives etc.
There's none anywhere in Legends, m8.

The thing that disappoints me is how easy shit is now. I remember the starting island being a fucking death trap and now I just ignore the mobs I drag along while wearing full attack armor without a single piece of protection gear.

I hate that /mmog/ doesn't exist anymore.

Are we gonna open a new steam group or use the old one when the steam release is there?

>>181340632
You remember wrong.
It was as easy back then.
The thing is, back then, you spread your points too thin and didn't synergize anything because you didn't know yet. Solomon was so fucking easy after the first time, with an alt. Even without sharing weapons with said alt.
It'd be equally hard right now if you were constantly changing weapons, abandoning your lvl 12 shotgun with a few abilities and passive for a lvl 1 pistol that has nothing because you had a change of heart.

https://secretworldlegends.com/news/2-0-1-patch-preview/
Ayyyyy.

So when should I start putting SP into my second weapon? I almost maxed out my AP on the first, so I figure I should start putting points into the second soon enough.

Do I just want to get the passives for skills that I want to use, or should I get all the stat passives for the weapon, then make the switch?

Is upgrading spring speed universal? If I upgrade when I only have the base one, then get the motorcycle or something would I have to rebuy upgrades?

what weapon should i grab for my secondary i use rifles almost exclusively and i don't really care for the blood magic book i was thinking either shotguns pistols or elementalism?

so does combat get better later or is it just worse all around now

>>181367894
Fist for healing
Elementalism for crowd control
Shotgun for AoE
Can't say anything about pistols because I didn't use those in OG.

>>181367894
I would recommend shotgun. The gimmick gets better the more abilities you have slotted for it. I'd go for something with less management.

I hear good things about elemental. Shotgun main myself so I can't confirm.

Also the mulligan/fixed game doesnt always work despite what i was told.

Wasted so much time, sp, ap and equips getting another purple wep only to find out AR does shit damage. Well I guess i can use it to leech heal when elites come out.

Try purple fist next, hope it doesnt suck as bad as AR.

>>181370889
Shotgun has one passive I expect to get nerfed. Provided you stick to a one-two consumer-basic attack through the clip, the bonus 15% (consumer)/70% (basic) damage improves single target damage output more than any other passive I've seen. Also, such a one-two allows for almost continuous use of the combo, probably continuous with a high critical rating...

>>181371361
I have suspicion that AR was nerfed because the leech build was balls-to-the-walls in OG TSW. The forums also went up in flames when they added cast time to the basic leech shot ability.

>>181371545

im using that too, pls no nerf.

>>181371950
The healing isnt that bad. Just alot of the good stuff has been been removed, Energise/Reap and sow. Instead they gave a shittier version of energise and gave the elite Reanimator instead of reap and sow. Reanimator sucked.

Better to be half and half attack/heal talisman setup instead of full damage like what people did in old tsw. The damage on the leech abilities look nerfed.

The damage tree abilities are complete ass though need huge buffs, even comparing them to similar abilities with passives shows how trash they are.

>>181373660
To be fair, new reanimator might be just completely busted. Death immunity is pretty strong. RNS was way better, though, party wide leech stronk.

Also, in TSW you wanted a mix of attack and heal talismans for AR healing anyway due to scaling. You could probably get away with full attack while doing solo stuff, but you really didn't want that while actually healing.

>>181374078
I recall using only 1 minor and 1 major healing talisman while healing Pug nightmare groups. With the rest being damage. Raiding maybe.

Though at a certain point they had heal tanks with 4 real dps which was faster then a damage tank + leech healer. Still faster then normal fist/blood healer + damage tank though.

>>181374743
To clarify, for maximum healing you wanted an even mix of healing and damage. If you didn't need that much throughput then yeah you could cut some healing, but that depends on instance and group.

Seems like leech healer won't be good. With major and head talisman being purp and minors being blue all +attack. My leeching ray does 50x3 damage per shot.

It's just gonna be a healer that can't heal without targeting a monster now. And have a trash elite with barely useful healing passives.

>>181379117
Leech damage was nerfed to hell, because in old TSW you could basically nuke enemies with leech attacks and causing five million different DoTs to them while healing you and your group for ridicolous amounts.

>>181379645
And it sucks.

Rather then making the other 2 healers useful in fights beyond healing. They nerfed the only unique "fun" healer i've experienced in any mmo.

I mean blood was pretty good with its reflect shield. Fist was basically a shitty wow druid though.

So what is the end game now?

>>181383062
Waiting for Funcom to release Tokyo and Auxiliary weapons. In the meanwhile, upgrade your gear.
On unrelated note, I didn't pay too much attention to the fusion shit, does the weapon/talisman need to be belong to the same class as the stuff you're fusing?

Do we have a discord or anything up?
or does any one have a nice cabal i could join to do some of the dungeons and stuff with?

Red Hand uniforms have nice aesthetics

Used to love using the AR in TSW and had a lot of fun blasting fools with Red Mist. Is it viable to have AR as my secondary just for that? I hate the whole grenade countdown thing so that turns me off from using it as a primary again.

Logged in the game just to check and yes, you can use AR secondary and have Red Mist.

Is PVP in this yet? If so has anyone tried it out?

Anyone knowsh, how the hell am I supposed to get to the Collector rare spawn in Savage Coast? I've been jumping on the rocks for the last 20 minutes. Would appereciate a screenshot with the right place. According to the Unfair, I should climb some rocks on 583,684, but I just can't find the right spot.

Thanks a lot. Got him.

is there any point in upgrading weapons/accessories you don't use? or should I just shove in my actual gear?

Question for anyone that has leveled elem.

How is flicker or whatever the teleport skill is? I was thinking picking up elemental for some teleporting shenanigans but heard it's really buggy and doesn't work well. Anyone have experience with this?

>>181322463
I on the other hand like the flavor change of tanking to shotgun.
If only synergies still existed. I see no reason not to run 5 primary weapon abilities, sparing the last slot for a secondary weapon power ability.

>>181412921
I might give it a go, I've been levelling blades by habit and can't decide if I'll tank with Chaos or Shotgun.
And yeah, same here, 5 primaries and one secondary.

How is pistols?

>>181411429

you want to upgrade 2 of everything to 20 really, for fusing. might want to keep an attack / healing set.

>>181415839
Seems like probably highest single target dps of all the weapons, unless balancing on high heat with elementalism tops it, but feels pretty shit.
Feels like everything is delayed, the randomized roulette mechanic doesn't feel good either, though you can pretty much force a double blue/red with this one ability and a couple of passives.
You want to shoot take shotty, because it lends itself to solo play. Rifle if you want to be a healer.
Pushing out the highest dps doesn't matter when you're leveling.

>>181418803
I went punisher because it seemed like the best self heal/solo shit.

>Assemblying stuff was taken out of the game
>Expect for that one Egypt mission
Fuck you

I'm level 20, 100%'d Kingsmouth and still haven't got the mission involving a parking in the dark. Was that removed? It was my favorite one.
Or do i have to level more within the Illuminati ranks?

Do you get anything for completing a zone 100%?

>>181310157
As opposed to creating your own guild, and having all the 100 spaces all to yourself? Unless you're poorfag and not a patron, what am I missing here?

This changes a lot
I was dreading anima shard starvation when upgrading costs get higher, but this significantly alleviates the issue.

Played back when TSW came out.

I am really liking the combat MUCH better this time around. I'm Pistols/Shotty and have been mowing through everything so far.

Switching in Claws now for the inevitable healing spec.

>>181423603
Yes, but it requires killing all special spawns, not just 100% mission completion.
Fortunately those aren't hard to come by at all.

give it to me straight, is it p2w now? I got an email asking me to come and play legends since I played the original one two years ago.

>>181421303
Also used for the Taco achievement.

>>181425614
A few annoying things come from the new f2p format but nothing too bad atm. Especially if you're an old player and link your old account before playing.
Protip: Do it.

>>181425614
its not p2w at all, but you'll see some people who want the entire game at level 20 saying its p2w lmao

>>181425614
No, it's definitely not p2w. Can be played without dropping a cent, and honestly the places where they have the option to pay aren't that egregious, it just feels bad for old players.
I'm not far yet but unless anima shard costs and shit jump ridiculously, I imagine that getting good gear isn't even more of a grind than it was in the original.

If you want to boost grinding and git gud it's probably worth it to buy one month of patron status when you're lvl 50 and grind away for a month, since its benefits get significantly raised on the next patch.
It's not like you got things free in the original. Black Bullion gathering for custom gear was a lengthy process, no reason for it to not be that now either.

>>181425614

Definitely not p2w. P2make life easier, yes.

They really did things right this time around.

>>181425338
but what do you get

>>181426094
>They really did things right this time around
Not really. Sure, they're fixing things with the next patch, but the combat and ability overhaul are still a mistake.
All they really had to do was fix numbers so that a single combat encounter wouldn't take as much time as it did in the original.
TSW was maybe dated, yes, but not inherently flawed. Now they just changed the janky old combat into a new kind of jank, hardly an improvement. At least AEGIS grinding will be gone, that's a plus.
>>181426313
10 SP and 10 AP. Clothing, title perhaps, don't remember. Nothing huge but no reason not to get.

>>181426428
AEGIS was what made me quit the game. Such a pointless, grating time-barrier. I liked the wheel, though. Even though most nightmare mobs being immune to most status effects killed many potential combo avenues. I think they should have kept one or two lines of non-weapon specific passives on each passive page, for triggered effects. Streamlined instead of all over the place but not entirely gone.

>>181427736
The curve on AEGIS was that it was ridiculously hard at the start, then became a fair challenge, then turned as easy as the combat had already been for you before Tokyo, and then turned into a ridiculous grind you had to manage on top of upgrading you customs if you wanted to do AEGIS NMs.

Got an Hardened Earth Shard on a mud golem. Went to the museum, opened a few wings but even the one on the golems do not give me anything. And no one seems to say anything about it, even thougt it said that "it belongs to a museum". Is this just a dumb reference? Sounds like a waste for an epic item.

So what benefits does linking my old TSW account give exactly?

Also looking for "guild", NO gay shit.

>>181428912
No it definitely goes into the museum. Only it's an item that you wont need before upgrading a spcific statue to paragon.
I can't remember whether superiors needed items or not.
>>181428939
All weapons unlocked, clothing and other cosmetic shit carries over, with few exceptions. You must get to Agartha before you can claim them.

>>181428912
Those drops are used to upgrade museum pedestals to higher tiers. Given how low are the bonuses that centerpieces give, there's not much of a point while you have better uses for anima shards.

>>181428939
Biggest benefit is that all weapon pages are unlocked for free. Also, buy every PAX clothing piece you can in tsw before linking. Those are transferred and are rather expensive in swl, so, might as well get the widest range for basically free.

>>181429217
Alright, probably for the Mud Golem one, then. Hadn't had any chance on legends drop for anything else than the zombies anyway.
Thanks.

>>181429345
How does museum work now?
Wings and pedestals take anima shards, surely, but what are the requirements for actually creating a pedestal? Kills, lore, and? I can't really see it being AP anymore, or at the very least the cost has been adjusted to the new system.

Lore, kill achievements and said drops.

>>181430201
To be honest, the clothes selection still sucks. Even the aurum items. Colors still don't match. Pretty sure all the designers are guys. Or aspies. Or colorblind.

>>181431502
The worst thing about clothing is the lack of belt on pants

>>181431502
I like the deck outfits

Isn't there a way to hide your weapon ? I'd swear there is one, but I can't find it.

>>181431932
It's dumb that the old deck clothings are gone. I had full wheel so naturally all Templar uniforms as well, and none carried over, because the only thing that exists now are the weapon full unlock rewards, which based on the names are 9 of the old deck uniforms from all factions, only faction coloured now.

what the fuck dude.

>>181432835
Assault rifle healing is actually the best thing TSW did in terms of gameplay

>>181432835
Classes are a contrivance and only define your starter weapons. You can still mix and match weapons as you want. Assault rifle healing still sounds as silly as ever, I'll admit.

>>181433114
AR healing was great in TSW you fag.
Well, leeching was, but I don't get this "it's silly" thing.

>>181433363
When i think about an assault rifle, i think about dealing damage not healing so it sounds fucking dumb to me.

>>181433363
Because assault rifles being used to healing people is an inherently silly idea. It's like cleric's healing shiv.

>>181433363
Not talking about the actual gameplay. The general idea of healing with a rifle is. Makes sense with "weapons" being only a focus for channeling anima.

>>181433608
>>181433661
It's leeching.
You convert the damage you do into healing your pals.
Also it's fucking magic, you mong, none of our characters in TSW use weapons as they should be used.

>>181433808
Yes that's the thing. They're foci, it's outright said, so there should be no larger problem with shooting health at your friends than slapping your fist blades together to give health.

So with Assault Rifle healing do i go for attack power or healing power for my charms and shit?

>>181434126
Level an attack power set first, maybe a piece or two of protection and healing. Dedicated healing isn't needed at all until endgame stuff. Which isn't even in game yet.

>>181434126
>>181434396
Elite dungeons will be soon. They will be using the old trinity system of 1 tank 1 healer 3 dps. imo Leech healing with damage talisman wont work if the elites are gonna be hard as they were in old TSW with old mix of ql greens and blues party.

The only thing AR might have over the other healer weapons is that the leeching ray has an auto heal attached to it for scrub healers.

Level in all attack talisman while slowly making a healing set for future group content. The dungeons at the moment are stupid easy with dps checks all over the place, having a healer just slows down the group.

>>181256039
Anyone know what's the respawn time for Resurrection Joe parts? Every time I've been checking none were there.

>>181435775
Elites will be lvl 50 only? Even the lowest difficulty?
Mind, I've not been further than HR as of now, but if that's any indication, the "story modes" are laughable even with a scrub build and abysmal group dps.

Head to youtube. I've done the same and was always able to find it up there.

>>181458367
Unless it's a main story mission, you can just replay the whole thing once it comes out of cooldown.

What's a good shotgun affix to be looking out for DPS and tanking?

Is replaying quests the real way to level up quickly? I just went back to Kingsmith and went from 21-26 in an afternoon while I was going a lot steadier in the second zone. Got a lot more AP/SP than I normally was getting as well.

>>181460774
Solo is Energy on main and Warding/bonus on incoming heals on secondary. Group content (i.e. pointless till much later) would probably be the one that gives you a bonus on incoming heals, on both weapons.

>>181458207
Everything but AR and sword are good bets to bring up, maybe fist.

Reasons: AR is trash everything, i'm the guy that tried to dps with it. and the leech healing isnt needed at the moment, prob take long to kill anything.

Sword has some crappy skill that it needs to use the special ability so you -1 action key just by going sword.

Same with fist, but the skill you use for it gives you a new set of abilities. Unsure how good it is though.

Blood suffers like the other healing weapons. The passives are mixed between healing boosts and damage boosts, but most arent good enough.

The melee weapons are kinda handicapped in dungeons. Mainly because you have to move out of AoE, so you end up losing dps with no real big boost for being melee. The melee weapons have nothing overly special about them over ranged skills.

Unless you plan on being a tank when elites come out, so chaos and hammer are pretty good. Sword has lost its hate generator and has been given to shotgun.

>>181461140
Is it the one where if you hit or heal with the weapon you are restored for blank amount of HP or is there one that increases the amount of healing you take in?

>>181461363
No I forget what that one is called. I think shotguns fire too slow for that to be useful, energy is much better since anytime you are not shooting the shotgun is time wasted.

The bonus will say something like "3% bonus to incoming heals." You don't have to use the weapon for the bonus which is why I like the idea of a secondary with it, same with Warding's protection buff. I do not know what exactly incoming heals means, if self heals count or if it is only other players. That's why I opt for warding on my secondary.

It really doesn't hurt you that much to have subpar suffixes. I would never kick someone just because they didn't have the energy one as a DPS. I also have no clue about extraordinary weapons, waiting for the patch to tackle that.

>>181461941

Shotgun.
Odds and Evens is retarded.
Even number of shells in the mag gives +15% damage to powers.
Odd number of shells in the mag gives +70% damage to basic abilities.

I meant that basically all solo builds should aim for energy not consumed on their main weapon. More energy means more time using your better abilities. Nothing else rivals it in solo or DPS, probably even tanking or healing. I have no clue about extraordinary weapons, I'm probably never going to have an anima weapon.

Energy not consumed is even better for shotguns since they benefit from having as many abilities as possible slotted for more ammo choice. It really helps out pure weapon users.

Fuck if I know what the other weapons do. I used the Warlock for the tutorial then quickly switched to Punisher and never looked back.

>>181462697
Is there anyway to uprank my +20 one star weapons or did I fuck up?

>>181462614
That passive makes energy almost irrelevant. Which makes the energy affix not as good. I'm using the one that adds damage to targets under 35% health instead.

>>181463029
I think you can buy something with gold to do that but I would just keep using it and level up something nice on the side. When the good gun gets to twenty, use your current gun as fusion fodder. It's not as big of a deal as you think.

>>181462614
Whats a good Shotgun layout?

>>181461304
spoken like a scrub who hasn't optimized his build around ar. I put out decent dps and never die and have solo'd every champion up to shadowy forest and every dungeon but facility and slaughter house.

>>181463029
You level up a 2 or 3 pip weapon to the same level and use your old one pip weapon as upgrade fuel to turn the 2 or 3 pip weapon into a blue, purple etc.

That or you buy a cash shop item to upgrade your weapon to3 pips.

>>181462486
I don't know what he's smoking about AR's. They've felt pretty godlike to me. My rifle gives me instantly cooked grenades and either just ends things or refills 50% of the party's health bars.

>>181462486
I leveled with pistol, it isn't bad. It just deals huge burst then you sit around waiting or using secondary. AoE exposed from trick shot is the best

But everyone says shotgun is the strongest solo. Can be used to tank later and maybe dps later. Hammer is also pretty strong for solo, you don't have much to watch like pistol roulette or element heat, just watch your weapon meter fill up and wreck shit.

Chaos is kinda bad since everything dies so quick that the paradoxes don't accomplish much but in dungeon it's decent since the bosses last long. But its a tank weapon like hammer and shotgun.

Don't think people will be thrilled come elite dungeons and having a sword dps dying to the minotaur trying to channel dancing blade

>>181463445
Yeah, I'm using Pistol main and it's pretty fun, I just don't think Im using the proper Pistol Active layout atm. When I don't have any energy Im using Seeking Bullet

All this build talk, hopefully my pistol/shotgun ""gunslinger"" is okay

>>181463310
Straight down the top row with the reload for heal&negate debuff for me. Passives are mostly top row except I took Odds and Evens. The reload heal is nice for keeping you going longer.

>>181463210
I had to make a choice between energy and bonus damage and for solo, leveling I decided that I'd prefer energy. The reason is in the open world, whenever something is under 35% they are dead with my next raging shot. It would be dope for soloing dungeons though.

>>181463310
I'm using rocket pod and pump action as main abilities to work with the odds and ends passive. Kneecapper for the elite. Both barrels to deal with swarmers. CQC/Reconstituting shells depending on what I need most.
I keep pistols as a secondary for Clean Slate. Great cleanse, plus an attack power based heal.
Rest of the passives, I keep blast barrels and reinforced rockets. Plus the healing ones because I like keeping my health topped.

Forgot my image, this is what I'm on right now. How do I improve my Pistol DPS for both Solo but also Dungeoning?

>>181463826
I wish I went with that instead of Punisher. I don't like the idea of melee weapons when there is no downside to using range. Also pistol is regularly called one of the best DPS weapons which would leave me with another role whenever I decide to start building towards a dungeon raiding spec.

Is it true that Funcom actually made the game worse with more micropay bullshit?

>>181464169
Well the game was probably going to die anyway if they left it alone. I don't see how it is p2w since the game isn't competitive, unlike something like BDO where you have to buy a bunch of crap like pets to have a good time.

I've been wanting to change my fatal shots to the bamboozled passive for solo. Fatal shots would be better in dungeon play where everything seems immune to the bamboozled passive. But it's gonna take about 50 sp.

Opening goes DS > DS > flourish > Full house if no red chambers > trick shot > DSx5-8 > wait until Flourish combo comes back while using seeking bullet. The feral regrowth is just for some survival. Heals about 25%-50% by using it twice. And I can heal the shitters in dungeon that go full dps with no survival skills.

How long is it for special enemies/rares to respawn?

>>181465027
I find this layout/setting to focused on a singular target and not enough to deal with multiple threats you usually find in Solo. Also you run out of Energy quit easily.

So is there a real way to find the missing letters other than trial and error?

Is it even worth it to put shit on auction or should I just vendor shit/use it to upgrade my weapons?

>>181470496
+3 tic gear might be worth it. Everything else I would just upgrade with or upgrade.

>>181470496
Vendor*

>>181470103
There should have been a cypher guide at the Motel next to the carpet.

Granted, this game and the majority of its quest makes me realize how low of an IQ I have. Thus I simply look up that shit in guides.

>>181470608
tics = dots = mk 1/2/3 right?

>>181470759
Yes

Also Faded, luminous and radiant for talismans.

>>181470756
A lot of the quests already involve you needing to google something. Also since the exp reward sucks, there is little incentive to sit there busting your brain about it for an hour.

I cheated on that just because how long it takes to type shit out.

Sure, there is the original codex, but there is a ton of letters missing.

>>181470060
I do about 1300-1600 dps in dungeons on bosses

Yeah it is focused on single target only, except for seeking bullet. Only use seeking bullet when im soloing. Hair trigger for dungeon.

Prob start switching out feral regrowth for Savagery for another 15% damage buff for myself. Potions are more then enough if i only queue for The facility. then the other dungeons take much longer.

I kinda liked AoE before, but realized its kinda slow. Why do 300-600 damage to duo mobs in Cfang when i can just do a 3k aoe followed by single target 1200 damage to single targets. With 5k and 2k crits being possible. With a short rest until the next mobs

>>181471010
Each circle introduces only three new letters. It's not hard to brute force the code, just long and tedious. Especially the last one since it's easy to click on the wrong letter. Did that once long ago, so I just use a guide now because it's not a very stimulating mission.

>>181471521
How do I figure out what sort of damage I do in a dungeon?

>>181471620
That was the question, was there a way to find actual clues on the new letters? I found a single point in the quest that does this.

>>181471905
TSWact

Pretty annoying to setup

To every new player looking to level weapons quickly: You have a certain amount of auctions you can post daily. I reccomend you sell everything except matches until you hit that cap. If you get a particularly rare item sell it the next day if you are already at cap. Anyway sell any items that dont match your own, they match someone elses and it will sell. Using this method you can get 4-5 epics by the time you hit transylvania.

>>181471997
The rune names are based on chemical elements but there's only a partial connection between the element number and latin alphabet order. Not a direct link like in that Transylvania quest.

You're in a bar when this guy comes up and knocks your gf/bf to next week, how do you react?

Anybody in besieged farmlands find rakhul?

>>181458162
AR + Fist for me. Has been pretty idiot proof, use AR for damage and fist for healing. Aka, run Mercenary, the masked man.

I tried getting into TSW a few times, but always quit at Blue Mountains for some reason, even if I really liked it up until that point.

Is it worth checking out Legends, or are most of the changes more end game oriented?

>>181472136
What about pricing?

These multiple captchas are fucking annoying, is it just me or what?

>>181473504
Not really. The main storyline has been adjusted. Combat is faster and less deadly. Most gameplay systems have been streamlined, which is a good thing for some, not so good for others.
Lends itself more to solo play, which isn't a bad thing because doing missions in a group was really clunky.

>>181463367
Nah, even the whale AR users put out shitty DPS in dungeons. Something like 800-1000 with epic equips. While i watched a fist/blood user pull 1800-2000 dps with the same gear.

I have logs now to back up what i thought. AR has some survival i guess, but so does many of the other classes. AR brings nothing special other then blowing themselves up without a passive(lul).

>>181473747
Im saying sell each item from 400-1000 even the one pips go for that. Just make sure you hit your auction cap daily

>>181474176
Is pistol/shotgun good DPS?

>>181474176

Well if it looks to bad in elites ill just buy an anima touched shotgun or ele.

>>181474176
Problem with DPS AR is the fact Burst Fire costs 5 energy to use, majority of the time it's better to just go Full Auto, or atleast that's my experience. Also, Red Mist was nerfed, no clue as to why, and you require a passive just to get the most out of it.

>>181471521
My Cabal and multiple people in General are saying you can force Pistol to constantly roll Red but no one is handing over how that works

>>181474656
It needs some buffs to be worthwhile. The dps grenade is bad, locks up the character having to target it for mediocre damage. The passive does nothing for it aswell.

The passives are bad for main dps. An extra shot for Full auto is trash, should be better. Same with lock and load passive, a "chance" for a grenade"? lol really. Burst fire passive is also slow, you can push out maybe 5-6 burst fires before you lose the passive. Back up plan pretty bad aswell.

The only good dps passive is the secondary explosion.

It also suffers from the healer passives being included, so there is way less options.

>>181475376
Yes you can, it isn't worth it. or at least the way i tried to use it.

By using it only for trick shot reds. The roulette usually resets to white while waiting too long so you need at least another consumer while doing the build. I guess dual shot + all in might be a good build... dont feel like trying

Havent played around with it much beyond what i thought would work.

so which works better with chaos. swords or fists?

>>181471010
I remember I wrote that shit down and made my own lexicon when I first did this quest way back. I didn't cheat on any of those unless completely stuck. The Morse code one was the fucking worst.

>>181482632
anime shells?

>>181482632

Shit

>Doing few low level missions on Solomon Island for easy loot

Well, since it was changed, I suppose leeching is more "Contribute minor damage while still healing" nowadays instead of the rape machine from TSW.

On another things, I gave some thought and I figured that perhaps some missing weapon abilities will be recycled into the auxiliary weapons, like that shitty AR elite which makes you hipfire the gun like it's M60 or some shit.

>>181485048
They had an M60 model for ARs. It was pretty great.

>>181450792
if you're running dps, the shell discarding skill on the second line might be worth it to reset the ammo if you don't get depleted uranium on any of the slot when reloading.

>>181475443
>An extra shot for Full auto is trash,
A 25% increase in damage is bad? Most passives don't give you that kinda of boost.

Which is the best damage shell for shotgun? The purple ones seem to double hit and that seems like it would beat the blue and red ones.

Can you use Blood as a DPS Build and if so is it any good? From skimming the thread I understand that Shotgun is apparently end all be all but I wanted to play a DoT Weapon Class; something similar to Afflicition Warlock from WoW

>>181495745
I dont think its that good as a primary for dps but you could certainly put it secondary for the DoTs

>>181495745
I wouldn't suggest it. Problem is high corruption hurts you for like 3% of your hp each time you use a skill. And it's just average damage even with that happening. Over a longer boss fight (not leveling) you're going to be more of a drain then a help.
That's what I hear anyways, and I can believe it since I'm using it as a secondary weapon.
