    The main benefit of the inertia upgrade for the platform gun is that you can shoot a platform underneath yourself even when you are falling at high speeds. Without that upgrade, the platform often lands too late to save you from breaking your legs, unless you have better reaction times than me.

    Playing a lot of Scout, I don't think I could ever remove the 1st tier range upgrade. I'd say at least 25% of my shots end up being 29.9 meters away, and at least 50% of my shots are at least 25 or above. I don't know how I could get by without the reduced range, especially now that I'm used to the eyeballing of how far things are, paired with how much range I have.

    • @TubeOfLaughes
      @TubeOfLaughes Рік тому +6

      For combat I'd rather go full recharge speed. 30m is nice if you just want to be able to grapple someplace without thinking about it when you aim, but with even just a little terrain awareness 25m gets you to where you want to be just as often without issue. Plus if you are going to give up recharge for distance then you'd better know where you're landing is where you'll be safe because otherwise the extra time waiting can potentially cost you during a heavy swarm. As far as the extra speed boost on landing, instead I just opt for shooting my grapple at the ground anyway. That in itself is a speed boost as you're instantly putting 20m between you and the nearest bug anyway. So no need to give up the extra recharge speed imo.

      ​@@janickvliek6530 Lots of things in games are measured in tenths of seconds. And you'd be surprised how much that half second can matter when you're knee deep in glyphid grunts. Being able to reposition as quickly and often as possible is your best defense as a scout. And the speed boost in tier 3 isn't even necessarily a full benefit since it starts when you let go of M1, not when you land. So that means if you aren't fully on the ground yet (which happens a lot) then you're loosing some of the speed boost time anyway.

  • @michaelbowman6684

    Here's three things you need to know about Satchel Charges, with the math shown below.
    1.) Max Damage will always deal more total damage than Max Capacity, regardless of how many resupplies you do in a mission. This is only really important for killing anything bigger than an Praetorian, because otherwise it's overkill and a waste, so if you take your charges to kill fodder, don't upgrade damage.
    2.) 1 Damage + 1 Capacity Satchel Charges will outperform Max Capacity in terms of total damage until you resupply more than 3 times in a mission, and will be better than Max Damage if you never take a resupply, which is useful to know if you want to get the most out of your Satchel Charges while trying to get the "no resupply" achievements while playing as the Driller.
    3.) Max Supply makes the best use out the of Tier 4 upgrades, whether that's Fear, Stun, or Carve Diameter, because you have more total charges to use.
    With 0 Resupplies:
    375 (Damage) x 4 (Charges) = 1500 (Total Damage)
    875 x 2 = 1750
    625 x 3 = 1875
    With 1 Resupply:
    375 x 6 = 2250
    875 x 3 = 2625
    625 x 4 = 2500
    With 2 Resupplies:
    375 x 8 = 3000
    875 x 4 = 3500
    625 x 5 = 3125
    With 3 Resupplies:
    375 x 10 = 3750
    875 x 5 = 4375
    625 x 6 = 3750

    One thing I feel like contesting though is your turret upgrades.
    I use gemini turrets + ammo on every mission (except mining missions), as when there is a wave alert, it gives me just enough time to set up both turrets until it actually hits.
    This leaves me only vulnerable to unannounced waves, but those are rarely why your whole teams goes down.
    Now my first point still falls flat against personal preferences and playstyle, but for hardened rounds in tier 3 is much more cut and dry, as the damage boost from it, and by extension, ammo efficiency, outways the less than one second stun.
    Gaming existence, made some good tests on his Lok-1 smart rifle engineer build. (starts off at 14:55)

  • @Fourger14
    @Fourger14 2 роки тому +7

    Hardened Drill Tips is actually less fuel efficient than not taking it. It's only useful for a greenbeard that hasn't unlocked the other mining speed buff. You simply cannot move fast enough to take advantage of both mining speed buffs because drilling reduces movement speed too much. Barbed Drills is *always* the correct choice if you are leveled up enough to get that extra movement. Using drills in combat a little makes you flexible, and Barbed Drills means you kill bugs with them faster, preserving fuel, and they preserve fuel while you mine too, while going just as far. Good breakdown of the tools here.

  • @williamamory6358

    The rounding error you mentioned for the flare gun also affects gunner’s zip line launcher when you take the tier 1 ammo mod. With 5 total ziplines, you gain 3 with each resupply rather than 2, which I would say is a pretty crazy bonus.

    When using both cooldown upgrades on the grappling hook, with the hover boots perk, you can actually become completely independent from engi's platforms. This combo gives you enough time to grapple to a wall/ceiling, activate your hover boots, dig a small hole and right when your hover boots run out, your grapple is ready again, so you can grapple to the hole you just dug out. It takes some practice but I feel like it makes my scout way more versatile.

  • @user-tt3lb1yy6i
    @user-tt3lb1yy6i Рік тому +1

    The thing with the turret stun is that it only stuns an enemy for a second. With Gemini turret, that means about 1 enemy per second for one second. While it does slightly thin out crowds, I dont think it does anything significantly for there to be any discernable difference. Especially when engineer has many single place crowd clearing options, it's probably best to have enemies bunched up. On the other hand, I always feel like my turrets never have enough ammo when I'm not running T4C, so I feel that having increased mag size does make a greater difference.

  • @Gebunator
    @Gebunator 2 роки тому +3

    Also, with the mining speed upgrades for drills, there's a lot of diminishing returns when taking two of them. You drill much faster than you move with the two. So you can run barbed and not have much difference in the actual speed you tunnel.

    I want to put in a word for the ziplines. I've used them at surprising times when I see a long drop but there's a zipline below me to grab. Holding the grab button for consistent ziplines grabs makes this an option even safer than platform's reduction of fall damage. Sadly, I don't think I've seen gunners use it this way intentionally (for the whole team at least), owing to their rarely being a need for ziplines even in my example. But its there!
    Oh right, great video. I'm too lazy to do numbers, and it's apprecisted.

      Personally i prefer use zipline for combat purpose (but i HATE projectile we fall so easily, taking damage is enough no need to fall into a pit of bug ! xD) that way i can assure my team a good cover (better angle and avoid friendly fire) and i can drop shield when i see the situation be going bad down there ^^
      Falling from projectile are just too much counterpart that why the "perch strategy" have a bad reputation even on gunner community lol (and spamming E is boring, if we can cancel a mechanic of the game, so delete the mechanic xD) ^^

    I had an accident not too long ago where me running volatile compound made my team fail an elite dive.
    We were escorting the dozer and it was drilling up at a steep angle. Some 40 meters away, at the end of the tunnel, a bunch of bugs spawned, so I decided to throw a satchel down there. However, it seems our gunner got the same bright idea with his sticky nade, and he happened to throw it in just the right way to have it actually stick to the satchel and detonate, which, thanks to the extended radius, killed everyone but the bugs the ordnance was initially thrown towards.
    I really like the destructive power of the extended radius mod so I kept it but I did switch to the ammo mod as a lesser evil just because volatile compound is essentially a balanced overclock (and a stupid one at that).

      @Sophie-Pilled 2 роки тому

      was looking to see if anyone mentioned this already, though i guess an argument can be made about it being less valuable since it only buffs you (as opposed to the zipline's ability to buff the entire team), and the scout has quite a few tools to make him avoid/minimize fall damage already. Though it's worth mentioning that the zipline reduction and the grapple reduction both stack, along with his 33% fall damage reduction armor upgrade. And since all of these reductions are additive, getting either Tunnel Rat or Low Gravity will allow you to not take any fall damage at all, no matter the height you fall from.

    The "Throw it towards where you are walking" takes a narrow timing window but as I have gotten proficient with it I can move effectively at sprinting speed while also moving a heavy object.

    So something I noticed being a newbie DRG player, is that if you jump from very high as scout and aim your grapple at the ground, it prevents all fall damage. So that sort of invalidates the need to fire it out faster as aiming at the ground automatically means you connect before you hit. I’d have to do some testing to see if my memory is correct but ya. It’s a neat mechanic I found

    I think this needs more coverage, because I don't see anyone talking about it, but for drilling with the drill speed upgrade you don't want to hold m1 the entire time, because as you said the mining speed is faster than you can walk while mining

    The biggest issue with the Defender turret is it's scan range is seriously reduced. This means it will really only shoot things directly ahead of it, making it very easy for bugs to bypass and ignore it. There have been too many times I'm fighting a horde of bugs and my turrets are literally doing nothing because they're not pointing in the exact right direction. Hawkeye may not do as much damage, but at least they'll actually be contributing.

    • @wholetyouinhere
      @wholetyouinhere 2 роки тому +1

      The damage reduction for Hawkeye is a whopping 38-45%, depending on your build. There is literally no use case where it makes sense to take Hawkeye over Defender. The only borderline case would be Hawkeye + MK2 + nonstop Turret Whip in a wide open cave, and even that's a questionable one given how much stronger Turret Whip becomes with Gemini.
      Just make sure you're putting your turrets up against a wall, slightly elevated, with overlapping cones, and then kite bugs into their line of fire.

    14:45 I recommend 2, 1, 2, 1 for a general play grappling hook.
    The 5ft bonus in tier one is good if you don't slingshot and it can aid in doing the power attack hole tuck (zip up, power attack, and tuck yurrself into the tiny hole on the next grapple because you're hitbox seems to condense while grappling). The 0.5 second recharge isn't noticable, you can still hoverboots save yourself because hoverboots is 3.5 seconds, the 0.5 seconds difference is probably the activation delay if/when you need to activate them (reaction speed). Ie. you'll still be able to save yourself just as easy. You can also justify range in public games because competent engineer randoms will only pre-platform directly under the minerals, so if the ceiling is slightly higher you'll find it awkward to grapple to their platforms and have to call for another one lower down, hole tuck partway up, or zip to a higher area before getting to the minerals. The extra 5ft taken with the winch speed means you can reach that little bit higher with a slingshot as well, making you able to clear even the deepest of pits in 1-2 grapples (egg missions and point extract be damned).
    The fall damage reduction is always good because even the seasoned scout is going to slide off mineral veins randomly because of how quirky the hook is. Sometimes you'll even panic release the grappling hook and take a bit of fall damage or end up slingshoting into a hole by accident past where you wanted to land in the heat of a swarm. Momentum's movement speed bonus is negated by bunny hop firing your guns and bunny hop throw juggling held chunks.
    I can respect the high tier perk choices, but I rather have consistency with traversal over a small combat buff that can be compensated for with the dash active perk and some scout weapon builds like hot feet plasma carbine.

    • @AxisKronos
      @AxisKronos  2 роки тому +1

      Safety First, Dash, and Hover Boots, on Scout. Yikes. Momentum makes bunny hopping faster, not sure what you are talking about as far as it being negated, it only makes combat and object moving faster. Taking less fall damage is a low skill low opportunity option, you can call it consistency, but there's no potential, it's consistently mid. Why are you taking Dash when you have the grappling hook? mental gymnastics on that one are wild. Just to be clear, you are taking dash, an active perk, so you don't have to take momentum on the grappling hook? Assbackwards as hell, considering you're already taking hoverboots and safety first (god why x2) for what? when you occasionally take a minor amount of fall damage? You should be avoiding lethal falls by skill, not relying on safety first to narrowly save you. And hoverboots are just an arctic cold take in every context, no semi decent scout runs HB, none of them need it.
