You can get a headshot with Jade rabbit cross map by vaguely looking at them. It's dumb as hell.

I have two loadouts right now, war rig and a collection of auto rifles + hammerhead, or sturm+drang+wormgod caress. They're both stupid but mow through casual pve and are different enough to keep things fresh.

I got a neat full auto + swashbuckler drang from minaj so I can go full ham with that and store up charged rounds to obliterate yellow bars/bosses.

edit - wormgod caress with bottom tree striker and the artifact mod that buffs arc melee is yellow bar deletion too.

It holds like 210 rounds in the mag with 200 spare and the actium just shunts in like 30 bullets at a clip. With kill tally doing x3 damage or whatever it's hilarious.

I find the full auto side arms feeling really good to shoot without much deviation.

You can also farm BA weapons from each alt as the 2 frames a week you get are per char not per account.

It's really easy to finish as well if you have access to the Vex Offensive to farm the powerful enemy kills.

Although arguably your time is better spent working for a currated one like 21% Delirium or Edgewise (which does require to have an HMG)

I'm not sure if I'm thinking of the same requirement but for the "kill 25 powerful enemies" step, I just load into Leviathan with sleeper and kill the two lines of 3 guards. 6 kills per run, it goes pretty quick. Depends on if your focus is just getting the forge run complete or if you're content completing the requirement as you do other activities

Man - I never think about Leviathan....this is a good point. I still like Vex because I'm farming vex offensive for the undying title....

Majors are called yellow bars though? There are orange bars too, they are usually like souped up minor dudes. Maybe people are colourblind?

Orange bars early in D2 were rigged to always drop heavy ammo. The orange bars still exist, but the heavy ammo guarantee was removed.

The the difference in shade between yellow and orange is pretty subtle though, you won't really notice it unless the two are right next to each other.

When you get bored of playing hitbox goatse with Jade Rabbit in moco and need a break, go grab a Skyburner's Oath from collections and equip Transversive Steps / Stompees / Lion Ramparts for a few matches. Jump veeery quickly around the map spamming seeker bullets as you go until you get shot down.

No it's not good, in fact you'll probably be in the bottom half of your team more often than not, but it's fun as gently caress and it's about as distant a playstyle from JR laning as you can get while still advancing that accursed scout rifle kill count.

(Love Jade Rabbit, I had masterworked it like six months ago, but 450 kills is a slog with any gun.)

Anyway Fortnite 2 and Overwatch 2 are not really new games. They are re-releases of the original updated with the current content (that is very different than the original one).

Overwatch 2 is like "Overwatch 1" 2.0

Is a different type of 2.0 that things like Doom 2 or Borderlands 2.

That's literally what doom 2 was though. A level pack for the Doom engine, plus the super shotgun. Pretty sure you can just run the .wad file with the doom 1 executable.

While you're right about the first part, you absolutely cannot do that. Doom2 uses an entirely different level structure, and the Doom1 exe has no clue what the SSG is.

Merciless is loving amazing in pvp with the catalyst. It's an erentil with max range and stability, built in feeding frenzy and kill clip. You can one shot a super with kill clip active, and even if it isn't, a non-lethal hit will make your next voop come out much faster. I don't know why nobody uses this, but i ain't complaining.

It’s not the same impact type as an erentil, for starters.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong due to the wonkiness with its being an exotic, but it’s not 95 impact
