    being a Scout who loves to abuse Special powder shotty and fast recharging grapples, Hover boots have become a must almost all the times just as a safety net for when I inevitably don't see a drop coming and am reloading shotgun or whatever. other than that, Bonus sugar health, Dash, Second Wind and Born Ready are the bread and butter for me

    I would rank heightened senses way higher
    Also, resupplier is IMO definitely s-tier and one of if not the best perk in the game. It's absolutely perfect for clutch resupplies as you can resupply in a pinch just before the bugs come to you, or even as they are on you. Also, at higher difficulties, the extra health is detrimental to keep yourself alive. There is no dwarf with whom I don't run it. It's flat out amazing.

    • @ReapeeRon
      @ReapeeRon  3 роки тому +29

      I can see that reasoning. I usually don't have a resupply up when a swarm is coming, I have a habit of calling them in after a swarm or before, and that might be why I don't really see a lot of use in Resupplier. I can see it clutch in instances though.

    "Heightened senses" is the go-to active perk for resource rushing as scout. It also has an added bonus of being able to save you from being grabbed through textures or by spawning enemies in the same frame, which happens 10 times more often than just normal grabs and is completely unavoidable without this perk.

    @smittywerbenjaggermanjense9149 3 роки тому +96

    I think some of the perks could use some buffs to see more play...here are some of my ideas:
    - 'it's a bug thing' could be a 10m radius, and all the minerals come directly into you.
    - 'resupplier' could use a rework that makes it give a little more ammo, but not to te point where you get extra grenades (i was thinking 15% - but then the driller would get another axe)
    - 'veteran depositor' could make the mule walk faster if you called her while having it equipped
    - 'second wind' should just be ''you walk and run 10% faster''
    - 'strong arm' should make flares stick to surfaces and/or allow throwing grenades further away (could synergise with driller's axes, scout's cryo and engineer's plasma burster)
    - 'hover boots' could make you go up some meters if you use while on the ground (it would be rocket boots instead tho)
    - 'unstoppable' could be buffed in a way that you 'phase' through enemies, instead of getting body blocked by them...as well as not getting stunned by slashers.
    edit: super entertaining video, as usual

      Yo! If the loot bug perk had the minerals come to me I would run it on everyone. There have been a few times in elite deep dives where I need a resup, don't have enough nitra, smack a loot bug but get pushed away from the minerals by mobs. Instead of being able to call in the resup I have to run a lap around the room before I can get the nitra it dropped. I would definitely f with this perk more with your idea :)

    Hover boots make life easier and can save you in times of need. When I’m being swarmed by bugs near a cliff, jump, when your friend is down in a pit in front of you, jump, when I mine a large gem and I’m way above the rig, throw then jump, when your gunner and your running that no mobility OC so your on a zip line and you get shot off it, hover before you hit the floor. These are the most common situations I use hover boots. I have been thinking about using that dash one though.

    • @ReapeeRon
      @ReapeeRon  3 роки тому

      Hover boots is pretty awesome, unless you are running something like home brew on the shotgun, then it is a bit overkill. Dash is really useful but it doesn't stack on top of other speed buffs, just found that out the other day.

    1. Ressuply - really useful on engineer due to how much he eats ammo, especially with the Lok-1. Def better than Sweet tooth on him.
    2. Thorns is pretty good imo on driller as you are a close range class so might as well have that safety net, and it's good if you are doing see you in hell drill build.
    3. Veteran depositor is again good for Engineer as he can easily set a base with turrets near molly and get pretty nice DR. It is also good while bunkering and a no brainer for low oxygen modifiers.

    we were fighting to the escape pod and we encountered several large waves we kept going down and at one point all but our driller went down i was far from the rest of my team at the time. I was at drop pod i was about to get in but then several slashers dropped me eventually as the others went down i used iron will entered the pod and waited i knew i was about to go back down and then the driller died and since i was the only one technically standing and in the pod
    the pod launched and drilled down to stage 2 everyone said "wait what happened l" and then realized me being iron willed saved the dive.
    on stage 2 we all entered the level at minimal health and instantly called a resupply pod we ended up finishing the dive with several close calls like 2 bulk detonators in a row with one exit that the bulk's we're blocking we killed one and so the other blew up as it was near it.
    It dropped everyone except the driller who had what looked like 0 health he had a very small sliver of health of probably 1 he got us up and finished the dive

    I am a pretty new player and I didn’t really know that much about perks so this video helped out a lot! I feel like as a driller, iron will and vampire is really good because axes count as melee attacks for vampire so you can basically always get back up if you have any enemies around by spamming axes, or just using the cryo gun to stop them in place to get the damage bonus and then use axes and power attacks, can also see it being used with beserker, you can also use the ECP mining to get red sugar easily so I think it might even be S for driller, but probably on the lower end since I have noticed that the other active perks is probably better for playing with a team.

    • @ReapeeRon
      @ReapeeRon  3 роки тому +3

    Friendly in C tier? Engineer has the PGL, Breach Cutter, Plasma Burster, Prox Mines. All of Gunner's grenades, plus the new swarm missile. Driller's primary, satchel charges. Pretty much only the scout is not carrying a dangerous/potentially lethal friendly fire prone weapon. Friendly is an S tier and a must pick if only because no one is perfect, collateral is inevitable, and it will likely save at least one resupply of health per player per match. Plus being able to toss a room clearing grenade or other ff weapon on top of a swarmed dwarf could save him, but only if you have friendly.

    • @ReapeeRon
      @ReapeeRon  2 роки тому

      I think that can be true depending on the overclock that you are running, like the Fat Boy. But all friendly fire damage is not 100%. On each difficulty it is increased by 10% up to hazard 4 where it is 40%. It does jump up to 70% on Haz 5 so there is can be more of an option and it is never going to be a bad choice.

    I like berserker a lot, it can come in clutch if you need to quickly get through some 3 hit terrain, but most of all it works wonders as an Opressor delete button.
    I like it on my gunner to allow him to quickly get rid of some important targets or a bunch of grunts that are too close, and on my scout to make up somewhat for his lack of tools for dealing with crowds.

    I love the reasoning overall here but I would have to rate Resupplier higher. More towards the top of B tier or the bottom of A tier. The extra health and faster restock of supplies has definitely been a lifesaver if a swarm is getting too overwhelming. I main Gunner so it works really well to toss down a shield and restock at a resupply pod, then turn and start shooting again. And from playing with my brother (mains Engineer) and boyfriend (mains Scout) having my brother pull an Iron Will into resupply clutch has saved us countless times, especially on the one Elite Deep Dive we ever actually completed. One mission there had Exploder Infestation AND Volatile Guts, so YEAH that was fun XD I'd throw Iron Will into S tier mainly because it has the capability to prevent the mission from failing and can be a time for my bro to toss out a couple extra Breach Cutter shots as well

  • @stevepy6758

    I would rate Unstoppable higher, but only on Fungus Bog, Hollow Bough, and Magma. It does work on sandblasted and Glacial storms, but the biggest issue with those is visibility, not movement. On Fungus and Hollow it turns the goo into a bonus, slowing bugs allowing you to out-pace them. It also negates the slowdown effect of quakes on Magma which is very useful. It is a good pick on these maps for non-scout classes.

    Gotta say that hoverboots on scout are really handy as a bailout, and to mine. Cable, hover, mine forward then up, fall, grapple, no platform needed. Like you said, fall damage is the number one killer especially scout zipping around.

  • @_M41KU_
    @_M41KU_ 2 роки тому +3

    I actually like using hover boots with scout. It doesn’t just save you from falling to death but it is great for collecting. For example if there’s a fossil or shroom at the top of the cave roof you can grapple to it and use the boots to safely fall back down. Also whenever there’s mining resources high up which have no way of standing on I can just grapple up use the boots and the 3.5secs of mining plus the pickax special are enough to make a hole big enough where I can sit in and collect the loot. It’s also enough time for the grapple to cool down so that I won’t fall to my death.

I utilize this combo alot to dash and soar off into a room and hover and get a completely different position on combat. Granted they have limited use on certain mission types. I just play to try and never die, thus rendering the ones that help when you die as useless hehe. I haven't used Iron Will since they drastically changed perks and created active/passive, it felt like a crutch to that point and I was ready for a change of play. It also feels good when an oppressor tosses you up and you hover and shoot things and not die to the fall.

And on haz 5 you really have to stay moving unless you want to get downed by a projectile. Plus you can also get slowed down by a slasher and then get ganged on by a bunch of grunts.

    Excellent list!
    I find it interesting that the Elemental Resist perk made S tier for 30% elemental damage reduction. This works on Praets, Opress, map damage and some explosions. I especially am surprised since Vet depositor only made it to C tier despite being a 30% damage reduction to all damage so long as you are near your drop off locations. I did like your point that it is more suited to Engi or Gunner. On higher difficulties I find myself grouping up FAR more often and typically we gather around a drop off location anyway, and end up receiving that huge 30% all damage reduction.
    I drop Second Wind and Friendly Fire down to D tier but generally agree with the rest. Haz 5+ makes it so you feel it if your perks are slightly inefficient lol.

The only thing that saved the runs was the passive gain from the lootbugs popping as I ran through.
