Underrail: The Incline Awakens

Also does anyone actually fight the newton azuridae, or does everyone just use molotovs?

yeah, but the amount of cheesing the encounter, if at all, depends on the build - some come online really fast
I close the door, take out the loner the hard way, lay down a wiggly path with some bear traps in front of the door, open door, molotov, retreat behind the corner, and kill them as they come through a firey path of bear traps

I just cheese the early game because i find it so boring, when i get to depot A i don't need anymore cheesing (usually)

I toss a gas grenade in there and just wait for them to shoah themselves, no need to even open the door afterwards. Honestly, I think fighting the Azuridae head on on DOMINATING is straight up impossible with most builds.

Shotties and ARs are the only ones that come to mind

Hi folks, if I buy the expansion, will my current save still be compatible? I have finished pretty much all content except DC and the Expedition areas.

Yeah i did it mid save and immediately all the new stuff appeared on the merchant stocks and NPCs. I even got a boss-like fight in upper underrail with 3 heavy weapon guys.

Fusion cannon = best part of the DLC imo

Did you notice that

Spoiler

you can disassemble it and rebuild it with higher quality parts and practical physicist/power management?

Saw something on the stygian forum yeah, that is certainly one way to buff disassemble and I may actually get it on this character even tho he's level 25 and it would cut into veteran feats.
I would have preferred if disassemble had its specialization buffed but this works too.

btw is this true for stunner too?
edit: nvm, just saw that only cannon got this property

now is time for weird question. Brutality - is it centered on your character or killed target? Important difference if one uses spear throws...

within sight, it says, I'd assume it means the death being within the sight of a mook

i'll come back to this once inevitable happens and styg pushes another update/dlc which adds good unique spear for throwing

does spear throwing count as a melee attack for that purpose? it's an uncomfortable mix of accuracy being based on throwing and damage on melee

 

[RoBoBOBR]

Started a Heavy Gun run on Hard. LMGs are fun, dakka is satisfying (blowing tough opposition away in one or two BRRRRR session especially) but by god that thing chews through ammo.

 

[lukaszek]

spear throw counts as melee attack for EVERY purpose. Its melee attack and scales as such, only exception is that accuracy comes from throwing(hence why you can go with 3str, below spear str requirement).
My dominating 3str max dex spear thrower utilized it to great effect - dmg is off the charts anyway so you dont need high str, while Im always in need for more accuracy.

is it possible to make a heavy weapons build with temporal manipulation that doesn't suck, or is that meta DoA for heavy weapons?

How do you fuck up adding TM to a gun build?

 

[Trash Player]

The honest answer? Powergaming-wise, TM trivializes the game. Intended too, Styg wills it so, seeing everything OP about it escaped nerfs.
Zeem probably meant HWs are so OP atm, there is no need to add TM into the mixture to ruin the game.
Fyi, it is possible to burst 2 times for 11 bullets each and throw a grenade with adrenaline in Depot A. That is without TM.

No, I mean TM is just a straight up massive buff even without any investment outside of skill points, so you can just slap it on top of an otherwise psiless build for major gains.

Can someone pls suggest some decent spear build, i know that spears are not really good and you need a lot of points to make it work , but still

unless spears got heavily nerfed since they were implemented, they shouldn't be weak. iirc i killed tchort in 1 single turn, with every buff popped imaginable but still

It's a very different experience for sure. Just blew through (dominating) Camp hathor burrower nest easily at level 12 (as in 1 burst per burrower, 4 bursts for Warriors, that sort of thing) but it must have cost me hundreds of charons in terms of ammo. I almost ran out of money by buying ammo and briefly couldn't take the train or afford TNT to blow open tunnel connections. It's fun to blast through even very tough Dominating fights while barely cheesing or sometimes not cheesing at all, but the lack of any long-term money buildup is getting concerning.

Just took out the Free Drones at the Train, could only do it by making them walk forward via grenade sound, then beginning the fight by killing the sniper up close.

 

[ciox]

Not properly confirmed yet with a full run through the game, but I actually have the feeling LMGs are very strong and it's precisely because they don't burn that much ammo compared to their damage potential.
The top burst count between AR and LMG is not that different, and LMGs also get more opportunities for increasing raw damage (Bullet Trance, Heavy Metal) in addition to having the same damage boosts that ARs can get. (Suppressive/Concentrated Fire)
So if they are used right they could be quite economical because things die after just a couple bullets that rip through their armor and health, while you avoid bursting inefficiently and causing overkill.
All this needs to be properly confirmed with an LMG/AR run though, as my existing chars don't really fit the mold, and obviously Dominating complicates things with its barter modifiers.

Dude stfu ffs

something from my archive,squishy spear throw, dominating proved. Stronk since very start, now you even got javelins.

Looking at it quickly id get versatile lvl1 instead of opportunist to use laz0r guns when needed.

you can slap TM in any build with little investment

even if you don't take any TM feats, it will still make your build way stronger, if you take premeditation, you basically have a instant "i win" button: Premed + Stasis combo

 

[agris]

anyone seen a good dom tincan heavy weapons versatile metathermics/TM build?
