    I’ve just watched WP’s stream where he tries out the new weapons (beta) and I’m rather unimpressed. I’ll wait until they are actually finished and we know what the final numbers are. What really irritates me are the alternate implementations of existing concepts like the combo fields on guardian pistol.

    Re-posting from my lemmy.wtf account, since outgoing federation from lemmy.sdf.org appears to be broken at the moment:

    @necropola@lemmy.sdf.org said:

    Of course I don’t know for a fact that LFG actually checks subgroup 1 to figure out whether a squad’s map is full, but it seemed pretty plausible.

    Also, I didn’t say that map full detection is in any way related to the squad size limit. The question is how does LFG determine whether a squad’s map is full? Does it actually check the map of the squad’s commander (squad might not have one) or does it check the map of the first player in subgroup 1 (which is what I think).

    I have even seen squads to explicitly use subgroup 1 as a lobby/queue for players not in the commander’s map (yet) which would be really bad, if LFG actually uses the first player of subgroup 1 to check whether the squad’s map is full.

    I’m looking foward to the offhand pistol buffs and the Relic (of Aristocracy) fixes for my Celestial Mechanist. This should significantly increase the damage.

    Mechanical Genius: For a short period of time, the effect will remain active even after the mech moves out of range of the engineer

    Not quite clear, why they don’t get rid of this mechanic/penalty entirely, knowing how much the Mech enjoys to wander off.

    Overall, mostly buffs, so probably most will be happy.

    You can also send an in-game mail, if you neither find Meldrk (meldrik.3572) nor me (xlion.3065 or brogrum.1309) being online. Please state your account name in that mail (though I think guild invitation via character name work, too).

    And don’t forget to once in a while open the guild panel when you are in-game to check for a pending invitation to our guild.

    Oops, I should have posted this from my Necropola☑ account.

    … but you wouldn’t equip an Ascended Celestial piece on a pure power build, because it would be worse than an Exotic piece with Berserker, Assassins or Marauder stats. Unless you are very desperate for Agony Resistance, but in that case you should probaly change stats.
