The dread's pretty good tho

[Flying Dice]

Lol, this update. Win ten rounds of a crappy PvE arena shooter mode (which basically means play ten rounds) and you get a free exilus adapter.

You can also bet credits on how many points you can score. A pitiful amount of credits, though. Plus the more you bet, the more debuffs you play with. Maxes at two, but having half-health or half-shields sucks. Also the mobs drop new mods.

Supposedly this is just an open trial for an actual arena to be released later.

Also, new infested scythe, and another round of Tennogen items.

[Flying Dice]

The main problem with it is honestly the scumbags that not only bet on the gold option but keep collecting after 20. Even 10 is risky if you've got someone just trying to cheese it and screw people over.

I mean, it always felt that way, even though they claimed all the BP rates were equal. People reporting stuff like 20+ Stalker kills with no BPs, getting 7-8 Dreads and no Hate or Despair, all that fun stuff. Though apparently that's still the case, there are people with data less than a year old showing ~33% BP drop rate, and <10% drop rate for non-Dread BPs. Was mostly just happy because I've already got my Paris Prime riding the Forma train and have a lot more Red Veil grinding to go before Rakta Cernos. Don't really want any of the others as much.

I've had the Stalker pop up a couple times, despite the fact that I have hardly farmed any bosses... Lech Krill for Frost and PHORID for Fieldrons, yet I've seen him twice.

The first time he wrecked me because I wasn't careful, and the second time he popped up while some Corpus mall cops were beating me to death, gave a look of approval and left when they finished.

Yeah, that's been my experience about half the time, getting blindsided because I didn't see where they spawned in. The other half, of course, is them showing up right in the middle of a four-man farm and getting killed before they even stand up. 

It's really, really easy if you're running a CC-heavy 'frame like Frost, completely trivializes some of them (Stalker in particular).

Have they changed it so that frame abilities affect Stalker now?

[Flying Dice]

Huh, apparently they don't. I'd assumed they'd changed that because of how slow he was about standing up (since he spawned inside my Frost Globe), but apparently he's just even slower to get up than I remembered.

[Flying Dice]

Baro has Quanta Vandal this round. 450 ducats, 300k credits.

[miauw62]

Eh, they released two more difficult (and profitable) versions of the Index, and they're ok I guess?

You don't really lose anything even if you dont meet your point goal, you just dont get your reward so vOv. Not sure how that works with the mod rewards? Anyway, you can just play on Medium (outside of Endurance) and basically always get to your point goal.

this gif alone makes the update worth it tho

[MrRoboto75]

We Katamari Damacy now

[Flying Dice]

I've just realized... Hek truly is the best weapon in the game. Not because it's strong or anything (well yes), but because when you use a heavily upgraded one in low-level missions all the enemies go flying all Team Rocket-like when you shoot them. If you've got some punch-through, crowds of trash can magically disappear or explode into clouds of credit-confetti. The closer you are, the stronger the effect; a point blank shot will propel ragdolls so hard that they'll bounce off of walls 20 meters away and come back to you. It's beautiful.

[Aklyon]

Its even got a good sound effect.

[Insanegame27]

Guys, you got it all wrong. You need THREE GRAKATA!
Seriously, gosh.

Four Grakata.

[Flying Dice]

Be Kurt Wimmer, master the Grakata-kata.

So I started playing this and there are so many "Oh I should've known this before" moments... most recently, the seller in the bazzar littarly telling me I coulda put my Stars in the Sculptures before selling them - after I turned em into endo already anyway... Or that you can get a "taxi" to alerts you need...
