Test ran Witch Hunter and Bright Wizard in the first mission, found both awesome in different ways. WH's ability to fire off a pistol with his sword out or to never stop shooting all of the guns was rad, but so was throwing out big pillars of fire. My only gripe with BW was that the venting mechanic wasn't explained at all and I took a lot of unnecessary ticks of damage venting too little charge before I realized what was happening, but that was me not paying attention. Game is rad, basically.

Pierson posted:Yeah I have no idea how that works. Your staff starts with zero charge, then when you hit max charge you start to...overcharge? And you can vent that overcharge at the cost of health but why would you want to since there is a ton of shots before you max out your overcharge gauge and, I guess, either stop being able to fire entirely or blow up? If the class works anything like in the Warhammer MMO being overcharged would increase damage but there's no visual indication of this. Just tested it out in the inn, and when you reach max overcharge you run around panicked for a few seconds, then explode. I assume this'll more or less kill you in an actual mission. You also get set on fire at about 3/4th full, which might apply a DoT. It's a decent mechanic, I just wish there was more than a "Be careful!" popup about it.

MinionOfCthulhu posted:Do the Skaven have personality in the game? I really liked them as a Warhammer army, their manic way of speaking ("Die-die, man thing!!") and high-strung backstabbing. Skaven have a ton of personality, and sound a lot like they did in Warhammer Online if you ever played that. They've even got lines for each individual hero, I heard a lot of them calling me Fire-witch when the clan rats bum-rushed me. Couldn't really pick out many others in the jumble, though. But they've nailed the look, sound, and overall feel of crazy mad scientist rats.

The inn rooms for each hero actually have a lot of cool little details in them. The dwarf appears to be slowly replacing the boards covering his windows with bricks. Good, solid dwarven engineering.

DreamShipWrecked posted:I want an orc as a playable character but an extremely confused, time-traveled 40K orc that isn't sure why he is here but really doesn't give a drat because there's still stuff to chop. Well I mean that basically describes Fantasy orcs perfectly. Who cares, use dat choppa! An orc would be great because it means there might be a WAAAAGH heading towards the city. Which would solve one problem nicely while creating an entirely new on.

Considering the first entry in the Book of Grudges is probably "all greenskins ever for being generally huge bastards to dwarfkind" that does make it a little more difficult to put an orc in. There are plenty of other awesome characters they could put in, but I'll always pine for the greenskin that got away.

Trier posted:I've mostly been playing hammerdwarf, but I just tried out what you guys said with shieldslam spam and I'm pretty sure that alone just carried my team to victory. Welcome to the Shield Club, use it to club slaverats with your massive shield bash.  Holding back a massive rush of rats on the horn stairs with two grimoires while your other team members rain fire and bullets down on them (and the soldier cleaves at things above your head with a greatsword Marcus&BardinBFFs4lyfe)is the best feeling. Now I just need some drakefire pistols to play with. I'll hate losing the ability to just erase a special with the handgun though.

I'm 16 and still don't have one trinket let alone two for both my open slots.  Also still using a white handgun. But I have an axe and shield with a 35% chance that it won't use stamina on a push, which is just ridiculous.

Ravenfood posted:Dwarves and the State Trooper seem to share a good bit of role/weapon overlap. Which is good, because I need to get better with both of them since they seem like the least played but most useful characters and I suck with the rapier as stylish as it may be. Each character shares at least one weapon with another class. Witch Hunter and Soldier have greatswords, Soldier and Dwarf have shields, etc. They might not be exactly identical, but they're close enough. The dwarf even has Drakefire Pistols to mimic the Bright Wizard. One of my buddies got a pair (the bastard ) and I switched to the soldier for shielding so he could play with them. And now he won't switch back because they're so awesome. It took me a good few maps to adjust to how tall Kruber is in comparison! All the skaven look so tiny now.

I wasn't too hot on greathammer for soldier until I ran a Ramparts using my new blue one earlier. Holy poo poo. With the bonus stamina and chance to instant kill on hit I might keep using it over shields unless the map is really tricky. Its push seems pretty large too!

toasterwarrior posted:If they want a playable Orc, they need only leverage the End Times setting. Old grudges fade when the end of the world itself is right in your face. If the Grudge is fading that just means you need to re-ink it in the book. I'm not sure even the literal end of the world would make dwarves give up their grudges.

Hexenritter posted:The lack of weapon stats and information compared to the first game is baffling. Yeah, the barebones tooltips are pretty bad. It's nice that you can go test things on dummies to see how they work, but a lot of things (half of Sienna's staves, Bardin's secondary drakefire pistol attack) just plain don't show numbers so who even knows what they're doing!

This all goes back to "Kerillian is the elf equivalent of an edgy, angsty teenager who tries to act more mature than she really is" which is a good character flaw imo. She's not the ancient, mysterious elf archetype, she just thinks she is.

Well the sidearm changes are one way to make sure I don't have the rapier welded into my melee slot at all times while playing as non-Zealot Saltzpyre. Now I at least have a reason to play with the other fun weapons like the greatsword and flail now.

Dr. VooDoo posted:Seeing as the Elf is somehow even more obnoxious this go around (Nice shot-NO NEED TA CELEBRATE LAMBAHFATS) there should be a dedicated key binding for the other four hero’s that lets them slap the back of the Elf’s head that makes her stop talking. End of round stats can have a “Number or Elf head slaps” counter too But then each round would just devolve into constantly slapping the elf and no work would get done. ... I'm weirdly okay with this.
